Abstract
- In this study, a surface modification strategy using natural biopolymers on titanium is proposed to improve bone healing and promote rapid and successful osseointegration of orthopedic implants. Titania nanotubes were fabricated via an anodization process and the surfaces were further modified with polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) based on Tanfloc (a cationic tannin derivative) and glycosaminoglycans (heparin and hyaluronic acid). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact angle measurements, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the surfaces. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were seeded on the surfaces, and the cell viability, adhesion, and proliferation were investigated. Osteogenesis was induced and osteogenic differentiation of human ADSCs on the surfaces was evaluated via mineralization and protein expression assays, immunofluorescent staining, and SEM. The Tanfloc/heparin PEMs on titania nanotubes improved the rate of osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs as well as the bone mineral deposition, and is therefore a promising approach for use in orthopedic implants.
