NanoBioTe-chnology-guided Distraction Osteogenesis and Histiogenesis. J Oral Res 2017; 6(6):142-144.doi:10.17126/joralres.2017.043In parallel to the tremendous leap achieved by Growth Factor-assisted Distrac-tion Osteogenesis and Histiogenesis,1 recent developments in the application of nanotechnology seem to widely-open the doors for further advances in the fields of biomaterials, drug delivery, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In deed, nanotechnology, first introduced over half a century ago, helps, at a funda-mental level, to manipulate distinct atoms and molecules to design and produce novel structures and materials (size scale ranging 1-1000nm) with unique, im-proved or desirable physico-chemical, biological and mechanical characteristics and properties. Hence, such an emerging field is rendered diverse, multi- and inter-disciplinary, where it involves the need for a decent understanding of bio-logy, chemistry, physics, and mathematics, at the least. On the other hand, na-nobiotechnology (or bio-nano-technology), refers to scientific and technological advances in the intersecting fields of health care and biology, with an emphasis on their interface with nano-scale sciences. In dentistry, nanotechnology and nanobiotechnology have recently drawn the attention of scientists and clinicians to potentially-significant advances in the detection, prediction, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of oral and maxillofacial diseases; deemed an un-avoidable development (and need) for the progress of our art-based-on-science field. Indeed, nanoDentistry2 is de-fined today as the science and technology of maintaining near-perfect oral health using nanomaterials, nanodiagnostics and nanorobotics, alongside the application of principles of pharmaceutics, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. For instance, nanomaterials are studied to overcome the physical, chemical and mechanical characteristics of conventional dental materials. It is projected that nanoDentistry possesses a significant potential to emerge and yield (soon) a new generation of technologically-advanced clinical tools and devi-ces for dento-oral and maxilla-facial healthcare, including: nanorobotic localized analgesics (for greater control, patient safety and comfort); nanorobotic dentifrice (for superior and halitosis-free oral health care); orthodontic nanorobots (for rapid and painless tooth movement without need for braces); bio-nano-enamel (nanorod -like calcium hydroxyapatite crystals arranged in parallel); nano-electro-mechanical systems (for oral cancer detection and diagnosis); nanovectors and dendrimer nano-particles (for gene and drug delivery in the treatment of oral cancer) and much more “smart” nanobiomaterials under development for cartilage endodontic pulp repair, periodontal ligament regeneration, extraction socket preservation and restoration, salivary gland radioprotection, implant osseointegration, cartilage regeneration of the temporomandibular joint and the treatment of oro-facial fractures, to list a few. So, bone augmentation and osteodistraction cannot be excluded applications.1Explicitly, nano-sized particles made from synthetic polymers and natural poly-mers are dosage forms that have consummated much attention for the localized and release-controlled delivery of growth factors due to their attractive tendency to amass in sites of inflammation.3,4 Compared to microparticles, nanoparticle and NanoBioTechnology-guided Distraction Osteogenesis and Histiogenesis.Affiliations: 1Facultad de Odontología, Univer-sidad de La Frontera.

Our core-shell nanoparticulate deli-very system formulated via the layer-by-layer (L-b-L) electrosta-tic-based self-assembly of a shell of alternating layers of anionic. The bioactivity of released (linear and multi-step over an exten-ded period of 45 days) rhBMP-7, controlled through the L-b-L design, was maintained via enhancing pre-osteoblast differentia-tion. Further, the increase in shell thickness slowed the rate of protein diffusion compared to faster burst release from uncoated liposomal cores.5 In our rabbit model of tibial distraction osteogenesis, ac-celerated osteogenesis was evident following a single injection of the nanoparticles loaded with a dose of no more than 1μg rhBMP-7 in comparison to earlier results from a single injec-tion of rhBMP-7 (75μg in saline), accentuating the role of the injectable localized and release-controlled nanoparticles.6 Other groups have been increasingly investigating injectable scaffolds for drug delivery; in situ. A fine example is the work of Hasirci and co-workers where they developed over the years several 3-D scaffolds for the sequential delivery of BMPs.7 One system consisted of microspheres of polyelectrolyte complexes of poly(4-vinyl pyridine) and alginate loaded with both proteins and incorporated in PLGA scaffolds. While nei-ther cytokine delivery had any direct effect on cellular prolife-ration; their co-administration enhanced osteogenic differen-tiation to a higher degree than single administration. This was suggested to be due to the physical properties (pore size and distribution) of the foams. It is safe, today, to point out that injectable and multiple growth factor delivery systems are mounting interest as they could provide a less invasive method for the regeneration and repair of osseous defects with clinical indications including fresh fractures, non-union or delayed union, large bone de-fects associated with osseous tumor resection as well as the acceleration of periodontal therapy hence avoiding extensi-ve/secondary surgery and in some cases, even shortening the overall treatment period.3-6,8,9 Nonetheless, since growth factors act in a coordinated casca-de of events to restore bone, delivering multiple combinations of Olate SM & Haidar ZS.NanoBioTechnology-guided Distraction Osteogenesis and Histiogenesis.J Oral Res 2017; 6(6):142-144.doi:10.17126/joralres.2017.043growth factors should be approached with caution regarding the choice of specific morphogens. For example, the sequential re-lease of BMP-2 in combination with IGF-1 has already been ex-plored, yet with commercialization-related difficulties. rhBMP-2 and bFGF absorbed to a collagen sponge resulted in decreased bone formation in a rabbit model of tibial fracture.4 Today, for orthopaedic and craniofacial reconstruction, the challenge remains to deliver osteoinductive growth factors in ways that would ensure consistent clinical success in humans (function and esthetic). BMP therapy should focus on the development of customizable, localized and release-controlled delivery materials and systems with the surgical practicality (preferably, injectable) and adjustable simultaneous growth factor(s) release profiles, ac-cording to defect site, size and vascularity. Indeed, given the complex nature – and microenvironment – of osseoregeneration, it is possible that multiple growth factor delivery exhibiting both stimulatory and inhibitory responses on bone formation (variable release characteristics in response to physiological requirements) be the best-fit solution clinically, with caution to the choice of combinations. Reported pre-clinical and clinical bone tissue engineering and regeneration, while satisfactory, can still be controversial. Yet, we can agree that efficacy, time and cost continue as main limitations. This is especially true in the case of distraction osteogenesis. Indeed, the focal question is: “ how to accelerate the osteodistraction procedure, in general, and the consolidation of regenerate bone, in specific, so that the fixator can be removed at an earlier time?” Further, “in mandibular osteodistraction, specifically (in comparison to endochondral long bone osteodistraction), what are the underlying governing mechanisms for enhanced de novo intramembranous osseoregeneration?” At BioMAT’X-Chile (Available at http://www.uandes.cl/facultad-de-medicina/biomateria-les-laboratorio-de-ingenieria-de-tejidos-craneo-maxilo-facial.html), we are focused to pursue and attempt to tackle such questions.In parallel, innovating the “ideal” osteo-/osseo-regenerative biomaterial, preferably injectable, remains our prime need and challenge. The future of osteo-/osseo-distraction (and skeletal bone-related health, in general) will closely rely on translational nanoMedicine and nanoDentistry with smart and/or intelligent, safe and effective nanobiomaterials and nano-based systems that combine customizable agent loading, encapsulation, active targeting, pre-/post-diagnostic imaging and multi-load release pharmacokinetics: a highly-anticipated and eagerly-awaited pa-radigm shift in endochondral (indirect) and intramembranous (direct) de novo bone tissue ossification, engineering and regene-ration.

In parallel, for a perfect-ly-coordinated osteogenesis, best-fit animal model(s) are lacking. Our earlier work also identified DKK-1 (a negative re-gulator of Wnt signaling) as a target for Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway modulation. Ongoing research at Bio-MAT’X-Chile, employs a unique, high-value and complex animal model of “mandibular” distraction osteogenesis and histiogenesis to elucidate the underlying cellular and mole-cular mechanisms of hard and soft tissue regeneration and repair under mechanical stress, following the local and sin-gle administration of a release-controlled nano-hydrogel hy-brid loaded with modified core-shell nanocapsules into the distracted gap as a “miRNA-mediated DKK-1 gene silen-cing delivery system” to safely control and locally modulate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. We expect this approach would help better understand the underlying bio-mechanisms, reveal and identify clinical targets for use in the design and development of novel, safe and effective therapies, thereby improving current methods and/or introdu-cing alternative clinical strategies, primarily, in terms of quality, quantity and rate, of de novo hard and soft tissue healing, in the cranio-oro-maxillo-facial complex, with a multidisciplinary bench-top to bed-side translational vision.Olate SM & Haidar ZS.NanoBioTechnology-guided Distraction Osteogenesis and Histiogenesis.J Oral Res 2017; 6(6):142-144.doi:10.17126/joralres.2017.043
