Abstract
Infection and poor osteogenesis are two major causes of implant failure. Surface modification strategy provides solutions to the above problems. However, the functional requirements at different biological stages during infectious bone repair and the oxidative stimulation caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) in an inflammatory environment pose challenges to the existing approaches. Layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly realizes layer by layer superposition and time-dependent acting of different bioactive components, but is demanding to functional groups. Tannic acid (TA) owns abundant phenolic hydroxyl groups, endowing various firm chemical bindings and excellent antioxidant property. To this end, we developed a time-dependent and antioxidant multifunctional coating via TA mediated LbL self-assembly. This layer exhibited higher ROS removal capacity and stronger binding ability. Furthermore, it showed rapid and excellent antibacterial ability of over 85 % against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli at 24 h, which additionally promotes osteogenic differentiation in vitro in long term. Moreover, the coating exhibited outstanding antibacterial and bone regeneration performance in vivo as well. Thus, this study is expected to provide an antioxidant and time-dependent multifunctional platform for surface modification engineering of dental and orthopedic implantation, as well as other potential biological material designs.
