The Effect of the Thermosensitive Biodegradable PLGA–PEG–PLGA Copolymer on the Rheological, Structural and Mechanical Properties of Thixotropic Self-Hardening Tricalcium Phosphate Cement

The current limitations of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs) used in the field of bone regeneration consist of their brittleness, low injectability, disintegration in body fluids and low biodegradability. Moreover, no method is currently available to measure the setting time of CPCs in correlation with the evolution of the setting reaction. The study proposes that it is possible to improve and tune the properties of CPCs via the addition of a thermosensitive, biodegradable, thixotropic copolymer based on poly(lactic acid), poly(glycolic acid) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PLGA-PEG-PLGA) which undergoes gelation under physiological conditions. The setting times of alpha-tricalcium phosphate (-TCP) mixed with aqueous solutions of PLGA-PEG-PLGA determined by means of time-sweep curves revealed a lag phase during the dissolution of the -TCP particles. The magnitude of the storage modulus at lag phase depends on the liquid to powder ratio, the copolymer concentration and temperature. A sharp increase in the storage modulus was observed at the time of the precipitation of calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) crystals, representing the loss of paste workability. The PLGA-PEG-PLGA copolymer demonstrates the desired pseudoplastic rheological behaviour with a small decrease in shear stress and the rapid recovery of the viscous state once the shear is removed, thus preventing CPC phase separation and providing good cohesion. Preliminary cytocompatibility tests performed on human mesenchymal stem cells proved the suitability of the novel copolymer/-TCP for the purposes of mini-invasive surgery

Laterální mezitělová fúze na bederní páteři provedena na prasečím modelu s biologicky resorbovatelným keramicko/biopolymerním hybridním implantátem obohaceným o hyperstabilní růstový faktor fibroblastů 2

An experimental animal study was designed to investigate the intervertebral fusion efficiency and safety of a bioresorbable ceramic/biopolymer hybrid implant enriched with FGF2-STAB(R) in comparison with a tricortical bone autograft used as a gold standard. Twenty-four experimental pigs underwent L2/3 discectomy with implantation of either the tricortical iliac crest bone autograft or the bioresorbable hybrid implant (BHI) followed by lateral intervertebral fixation. The quality of spinal fusion was assessed by micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), biomechanical testing, and histological examination at both 8 and 16 weeks after the surgery.Experimentální studie na zvířatech byla navržena tak, aby zkoumala účinnost a bezpečnost meziobratlové fúze a biologicky resorbovatelného hybridního implantátu z keramiky/biopolymeru obohaceného o FGF2-STAB (R) ve srovnání s trikortikálním kostním autograftem používaným jako zlatý standard. Dvacet čtyři experimentálních prasat podstoupilo discektomii L2/3 s implantací buď trikortikálního autograftu kosti kyčelní, nebo bioresorbovatelného hybridního implantátu (BHI) s následnou laterální intervertebrální fixací. Kvalita spinální fúze byla hodnocena mikropočítačovou tomografií (mikro-CT), biomechanickým testováním a histologickým vyšetřením v 8. a 16. týdnu po operaci
