Large bone defects cause significant clinical challenges due to the lack of optimal grafts for effective regeneration. The tissue engineering way that requires the combination of biomaterials scaffold, stem cells and proper bioactive factors is a prospective method for large bone repair. Here, we synthesized a three-arm host-guest supramolecule (HGSM) to covalently crosslinking with the naturally derived polymer methacrylated silk fibroin (SFMA). The combination of HGSM and SFMA can form a high strength double-crosslinked hydrogel HGSFMA, that serve as the hydrogel scaffold for bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) growing. Icariin (ICA) loaded in the HGSFMA hydrogel can promote the osteogenesis efficiency of BMSCs and inhibit the osteoclasts differentiation. Our findings demonstrated that the HGSFMA/ICA hydrogel effectively promoted the in vitro adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Rat femoral defects model show that this hydrogel can completely repair femoral damage within 4 weeks and significantly promote the secretion of osteogenesis-related proteins. In summary, we have prepared an effective biomimetic bone carrier, offering a novel strategy for bone regeneration and the treatment of large-scale bone defects.
由于缺乏用于有效再生的理想移植物,大的骨缺损引发了重大的临床挑战。组织工程方法需要将生物材料支架、干细胞和适当的生物活性因子相结合,是一种用于大骨修复的前瞻性方法。在此,我们合成了一种三臂主客体超分子(HGSM),使其与天然衍生的聚合物甲基丙烯酸化丝素蛋白(SFMA)共价交联。HGSM与SFMA的组合可形成高强度双交联水凝胶HGSFMA,作为骨髓间充质干细胞(BMSCs)生长的水凝胶支架。负载在HGSFMA水凝胶中的淫羊藿苷(ICA)可提高BMSCs的成骨效率并抑制破骨细胞分化。我们的研究结果表明,HGSFMA/ICA水凝胶有效地促进了BMSCs的体外黏附、增殖和成骨分化。大鼠股骨缺损模型表明,这种水凝胶可在4周内完全修复股骨损伤,并显著促进成骨相关蛋白的分泌。总之,我们制备了一种有效的仿生骨载体,为骨再生和大规模骨缺损的治疗提供了一种新策略。
