Biological Evaluation of Chitosan Nanofiber Membrane for Guided Bone Regeneration

Abstract: The biocompatibility of the chitosan nanofiber membrane was confirmed, with enhanced bone regeneration and no evidence of an inflammatory reaction. This experiment shows that the novel biodegradable chitosan nanofiber membrane may be useful as a tool for guided bone regeneration.

“…Hence, there is a need for new method to prevent infection of GBR/GTR membranes and regenerating alveolar bone. Electrospun chitosan and other chitosan membrane materials have been advocated for GBR/GTR barrier membranes [1][2][3]. Chitosan is advantageous because it has been reported to stimulate the healing of dental pulp wounds, [4] is osteogenic, and has been shown to inhibit lippopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced monocyte activation [5,6].…”

“…Chitosancoated culture plates have been reported to upregulate genes associated with Coll-1, osteopontin, osteonectin, and OC in osteoblasts (38). Similarly, it has been shown that chitosan-coated fibers increased cell attachment, ALP activity, and the expression of osteopontin on preosteoblasts, resulting in significant mineralization in a 3D construct (39) and new bone formation in a rabbit calvarial model (40). Our in vivo experiment differs from the in vitro results from Matthews et al (38) and Yang et al (39) as the expression of Coll-1 was not modified, the specific ALP activity was reduced, and a trend toward reduction in the expression of OC was found.…”

“…An ideal material for bone regeneration should be biocompatible, biodegradable, easy to apply, and effective on bone repair. Since chitosan has been shown by many researchers to possess these properties 14,15) , this study was performed to evaluate its effectiveness on the healing of extraction socket.…”
