Histomorphometric, Immunohistochemical, Ultrastructural Characterization of a Nano-Hydroxyapatite/Beta-Tricalcium Phosphate Composite and a Bone Xenograft in Sub-Critical Size Bone Defect in Rat Calvaria

Abstract: Nowadays, we can observe a worldwide trend towards the development of synthetic biomaterials. Several studies have been conducted to better understand the cellular mechanisms involved in the processes of inflammation and bone healing related to living tissues. The aim of this study was to evaluate tissue behaviors of two different types of biomaterials: synthetic nano-hydroxyapatite/beta-tricalcium phosphate composite and bone xenograft in sub-critical bone defects in rat calvaria. Twenty-four rats underwent e… Show more

“…As regards histometric analysis, the results of this work were different from those obtained by Mendes et al (34), who suggested the osteoconductive activity of the material, as it did not allow the development of bone tissue along the surface of the biomaterial; therefore, the clinical application must be such that the technique used and the indications for use be optimal for the material, fact also concluded in a comparative study between xenogenous biomaterials and synthetic nano-hydroxyapatite/beta-tricalcium phosphate composite (28,29,35).…”

“… 1 The determination of the percentage of phases is not yet well defined, although a proportion 80% HA and 20% β-TCP seem adequate because HA is a less resorbable framework than β-TCP, creating an ideal condition, where the reabsorption ratio versus bone matrix deposition keeps itself balanced, generating results in the quality of newly formed bone much more satisfactory than those found in other materials that present substrates of calcium phosphate in different concentrations. 33 The present results support these characteristics with an osteoinductive potential more relevant in the nano-HA/β-TCP mixture than in the DBBM group.…”
