Article Abstract
Objective: Biomaterial can be locally applied to promote the osseointegration of dental implants. This study aimed to fabricate an osteogenic inducer (OI) sustained-release system and to evaluate its effects on the adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of osteoblasts on titanium surfaces.
Methods: First of all, different contents of OI solution were added to the poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) gel individually to investigate the best physical properties and drug-release rate. Moreover, osteoblasts were isolated from the calvaria of two-month-old New Zealand rabbits through sequential enzymatic digestion. Osteoblasts were seeded onto the surface of Ti disks (control group), Ti coated with PLGA gel (PLGA group), and Ti coated with the OI sustained-release system (PLGA+OI group). Cell adhesion was observed by scanning electron microscopy. Cell proliferation was analyzed by cell counting kit-8. Cell differentiation was tested by alizarin red staining, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and osteogenic-related gene expression.
Results: The OI sustained-release system contained 15% OI solution had appropriate physical properties and drug-release rate. The osteoblasts in the PLGA+OI group were in a typical spindle shape with a considerable number indicating the promotion of adhesion and proliferation. The expression of early and late stage osteoblast differentiation genes in the PLGA+OI group were significantly higher than that of the control group and PLGA group at each time point. The PLGA group showed accelerated adhesion and differentiation but reduced proliferation compared with the control.
Conclusion: The OI sustained-release system promotes the adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of osteoblasts on titanium surfaces. This system is a cost-effective osteoconductive biomaterial that might be promising for use in dental implantation.

Background: Diniconazole (DCZ) is a poorly water-soluble triazole fungicide. However, the water solubility of DCZ can be significantly enhanced by inclusion complexation with cyclodextrins. In order to improve the properties and bioavailability of pesticide fungicides DCZ, a new system of nanofibers was prepared by electrospinning and cyclodextrin encapsulation.

The clinical use of gemcitabine (GEM), a frontline chemotherapeutic agent for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), is limited by its short half-life, rapid systemic clearance, associated dose-limiting toxicities and a faster development of resistance in pancreatic cancer. Aspirin (ASP), a repurposed NSAID, has been shown to sensitize PDAC cells to GEM through modulation of multiple oncogenic and inflammatory pathways. However, its clinical use is restricted by dose-dependent gastrointestinal toxicity.

Introduction: During the healing process, the functional gradient attachment of the rotator cuff (RC) tendon-bone interface fails to regenerate, which severely impedes load transfer and stress dissipation, thereby increasing the risk of retears. As a result, the treatment of rotator cuff tears remains a significant clinical challenge.
Methods: In this study, a dual-crosslinked hyaluronic acid/polyethylene glycol (HA/PEG) hydrogel scaffold was synthesized using hyaluronic acid and polyethylene glycol as base materials.

Diclofenac sodium (DS), a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug used for treating inflammatory pain, has a short elimination half-life, which can lead to fluctuations in blood drug concentration. Therefore, developing sustained-release formulations is necessary to meet clinical needs. Biodegradable polymers exhibit excellent sustained-release properties and good biocompatibility, making them suitable for processing into nanofiber-based drug delivery systems via electrospinning technology.
