The solubility of Ca++ . composition of materials increased more significantly when macrophages were inoculated than when macrophages were not seeded (P< 0.001), and it was shown that the ground materials were wrapped and phagocytized or resorbed extracellularly by macrophages under SEM, suggesting that macrophages could mediate the degradation of calcium phosphate compound artificial bone by phagocytizing and/or degrading extracellularly.展开更多

Since their discovery in the 1980s, extensive research has been conducted to improve their properties, and emerging evidence supports their increased application in bone tissue engineering. Much effort has been made to enhance the biological performance of CPCs, including their biocompatibility, osteoconductivity, osteoinductivity, biodegradability, bioactivity, and interactions with cells. This review article focuses on the major recent developments in CPCs, including 3D printing, injectability, stem cell delivery, growth factor and drug delivery, and pre- vascularization of CPC scaffolds via co-culture and tri-culture techniques to enhance angiogenesis and osteogenesis.展开更多

Nanostructured calcium phosphate （CAP） biomaterials/scaffolds are of special interest as they share chemical/crystallographic similarities to inorganic components of bone. Three applications of nano-CaP are discussed in this review： nanostructured calcium phosphate cement （CPC）; nano-CaP composites; and nano-CaP coatings. The interactions between stem cells and nano-CaP are highlighted, including cell attachment, orientation/ morphology, differentiation and in vivo bone regeneration. Several trends can be seen： （i） nano-CaP biomaterials support stem cell attachment/proliferation and induce osteogenic differentiation, in some cases even without osteogenic supplements; （ii） the influence of nano-CaP surface patterns on cell alignment is not prominent due to non-uniform distribution of nano-crystals; （iii） nano-CaP can achieve better bone regeneration than conventional CaP biomaterials; （iv） combining stem cells with nano-CaP accelerates bone regeneration, the effect of which can be further enhanced by growth factors; and （v） cell microencapsulation in nano-CaP scaffolds is promising for bone tissue engineering. These understandings would help researchers to further uncover the underlying mechanisms and interactions in nano-CaP stem cell constructs in vitro and in vivo, tailor nano-CaP composite construct design and stem cell type selection to enhance cell function and bone regeneration, and translate laboratory findings to clinical treatments.展开更多

The osteogenic characteristic of compound rhBMP- 2/CPC was measured by making animal model of radio discontinuous defect. The setting time of the two groups meets the clinical requirements, and the compressive strength of the solidified body of bone cement increases along with increasing the immersion time. Compound rhBMP- 2/ CPC has a favorable ostengenic characteristic for animal model of radio discontinuous deject. The fundamental characteristics of the compound rhBMP- 2 phosphate bone cement are basically the same as that of CPC, and also have a favorable biosafety and osteogenesis.展开更多
