Magnetic Mesoporous Calcium Sillicate/Chitosan Porous Scaffolds for Enhanced Bone Regeneration and Photothermal Chemotherapy of Osteosarcoma
The development of multifunctional biomaterials to repair bone defects after neoplasm removal and inhibit tumor recurrence remained huge clinical challenges. Here, we demonstrate a kind of innovative and multifunctional magnetic mesoporous calcium sillicate/chitosan (MCSC) porous scaffolds, made of M type ferrite particles (SrFe12O19) mesoporous calcium silicate (CaSiO3) and chitosan (CS) which exert robust anti tumor and bone regeneration properties. The mesopores in the CaSiO3 microspheres contributed to the drug delivery property, and the SrFe12O19 particles improved photothermal therapy (PTT) conversion efficacy. With the irradiation of NIR laser, doxorubicin (DOX) was rapidly released from the MCSC/DOX scaffolds. In vitro and in vivo tests demonstrated that the MCSC scaffolds possessed the excellent anti tumor efficacy via the synergetic effect of DOX drug release and hyperthermia ablation. Moreover, BMP 2/Smad/Runx2 pathway was involved in the MCSC scaffolds promoted proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) Taken together, the MCSC scaffolds have the ability to promote osteogenesis and enhance synergetic photothermal chemotherapy against osteosarcoma, indicating MCSC scaffolds may have great application potential for bone tumor related defects.
