Multidynamic Osteogenic Differentiation by Effective Polydopamine Micro-Arc Oxide Manipulations.

Abstract

IntroductionThe nanostructural modification of the oral implant surface can effectively mimic the morphology of natural bone tissue, allowing osteoblasts to achieve both proliferation and differentiation capabilities at the bone interface of the dental implant. To improve the osteoinductive activity on the surface of titanium implants for rapid osseointegration, we prepared a novel composite coating (MAO-PDA-NC) by micro-arc oxidation technique and immersion method and evaluated the proliferation, adhesion, and osteogenic differentiation of osteoblasts on this coating.MethodsThe coatings were prepared by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) technique and immersion method, and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) for different coatings; the loading of PDA was examined using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR); the ion release capacity of the coatings was determined by inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry (ICP-OES); the interfacial bonding of the coatings was examined using nanoscratch experiment strength. The cytotoxicity of the coating was examined by live/dead staining kit; cell proliferation viability was examined by CCK-8 kit; adhesion and osteogenic effect of the coating were examined by immunofluorescence staining and RT-PCR; osteogenic differentiation was examined by alkaline phosphatase staining.ResultsThe surface morphology of titanium implants was modified by micro-arc oxidation technology, and a new MAO-PDA-NC composite coating was successfully prepared. The results showed that the MAO-PDA-NC coating not only optimized the physical and chemical properties of the titanium implant surface but also significantly stimulated the biological properties of osteoblast adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation on the coating surface.ConclusionThese results show that MAO-PDA-NC composite coating can significantly improve the surface properties of titanium implants and achieve a stable bond between implant and bone tissue, thus accelerating early osseointegration.
