Biodegradable Scaffolds for Bone Regeneration Combined with Drug-Delivery Systems in Osteomyelitis Therapy

Abstract: A great deal of research is ongoing in the area of tissue engineering (TE) for bone regeneration. A possible improvement in restoring damaged tissues involves the loading of drugs such as proteins, genes, growth factors, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory drugs into scaffolds for tissue regeneration. This mini-review is focused on the combination of the local delivery of antibiotic agents with bone regenerative therapy for the treatment of a severe bone infection such as osteomyelitis. The review includes a br… Show more

“…Improvement of the manufacturing processes, which eliminate structural flaws (Tiainen, Wiedmer, & Haugen, ) or improve microstructural features (Georgiou & Knowles, ; De Aza, Chevalier, Fantozzi, Schehl, & Torrecillas, ) or composite structures (Miao, Tan, Li, Xiao, & Crawford, ; Novak, Druce, Chen, & Boccaccini, ), is alternatives in improving the intrinsic strength of synthetic bioceramics. The most investigated CaP BG substitutes are hydroxyapatite, beta‐tricalcium phosphate and their combination, also called biphasic calcium phosphate (Dorati et al., ). Synthetic bioceramics have demonstrated the ability to partially integrate into natural bone tissue and stimulate osteoblast differentiation, osteoblast growth and inorganic matrix deposition.…”

“…Unfortunately, these sophisticated approaches were not completely able to overcome biofilm's adaptive abilities. One not so sophisticated but the effective strategy of bone biofilm eradication is the application of a high local concentration of antibiotic coupled with carriers such as chitosan, hyaluronic acid, or collagen . Choice of an antimicrobial appropriate carrier is thus paramount.…”

“…One not so sophisticated but the effective strategy of bone biofilm eradication is the application of a high local concentration of antibiotic coupled with carriers such as chitosan, hyaluronic acid, or collagen. 5 Choice of an antimicrobial appropriate carrier is thus paramount. A carrier suitable to be applied against biofilm-based infection should be of low or zero cytotoxicity against the host's cells and should release high concentrations of antimicrobial (during first day after the surgical procedure).…”

“…It can be implanted into the body as a cell-free scaffold, or it may be already supplied with cells and/or growth factors, cytokines, and genetic material (bioengineered scaffolds). The latter has the advantage by promoting faster tissue regeneration, especially in some pathological conditions, when the tissue does not have inherent self-regenerating potential [10].…”

“…All these variables (shape, structure, and composition) should be balanced in order to find the combination that perfectly matches with the properties and functions of the damaged bone. This means a significant number of combinations among polymers, minerals, and other materials need to be evaluated [10].…”
