Hydroxyapatite (HA) is a synthetic biomaterial resembling the composition of mammalian hard tissue and thus, it is widely employed as a bone graft material, hard tissue engineering scaffold and coating layer for metallic substrates. Biological apatite is non-stoichiometric in nature. It is composed of small crystals and characterized by poor crystallinity and relatively high solubility with respect to stoichiometric HA. Chemical compositions of these crystals consist of Ca, P and trace amounts of various ions, such as Mg2+, Zn2+, Sr2+, Ag+, Cl- and F- which are more prominent as dopants or adsorbed on the crystal surface. However, these ions play an important role in the metabolism of hard tissues. Synthetic HA is a stoichiometric material with a Ca/P ratio of 1.67, which lacks the presence of valuable trace ions regularly present in natural hard tissue. Thus, the structure of synthetic HA is partially incorporated by these ions to mimic the chemical composition of the biological apatite structure. Ionic substitutions have been planned as a tool to enhance the biological role of HA based materials. As single dopant frameworks have indicated great outcomes, it makes sense that various dopants can be utilized to further build the valuable impacts of each, within the constraints of the material stability of HA. This review is focused on co-ionic substitutions in HA system and their combined effects on related biomedical characteristics.

Interdependence of pulsed ultrasound and shear stress effects on cell morphology and gene expression
Mccormick, Susan M.; Saini, Vikas; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit; Demou, Zoe N.; Royston, Thomas J. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2006-03-01)
Fluid shear stress is a key biomechanical regulatory factor in a several biological systems including bone tissue. Bone cells are also regulated by exogenous acoustic vibration, which has therapeutic benefits. In this study, we determined the effects of shear stress and pulsed ultrasound (US), alone and in series on osteoblast morphology and gene expression. We observed that shear stress (19 dyne/cm(2)) elongated SaOS-2 cells at 3, 6, 24, and 48 h decreasing their shape index from control values of 0.51 +/-...
Preparation and characterization of chitosan-gelatin/hydroxyapatite scaffolds for hard tissue engineering approaches
Işıklı, Cansel; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Biomedical Engineering (2010)
Hard tissue engineering holds the promise of restoring the function of failed hard tissues and involves growing specific cells on extracellular matrix (ECM) to develop „„tissue-like” structures or organoids. Chitosan is a linear amino polysaccharide that can provide a convenient physical and biological environment in tissue regeneration attempt. To improve chitosan‟s mechanical and biological properties, it was blended with another polymer gelatin. 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide (EDC) and N-...
Biodegradable polymer promotes osteogenic differentiation in immortalized and primary osteoblast-like cells
Onat, Bora; Tuncer, Sinem; Ulusan, Sinem; Banerjee, Sreeparna; Erel Göktepe, İrem (IOP Publishing, 2019-07-01)
Biodegradable polymers have been broadly used as agents that can complex with and deliver osteoinductive agents, but osteoinductivity of the polymers themselves has been rarely studied. Here we report the osteoinductivity of poly(4-hydroxy-L-proline ester) (PHPE), a biodegradable cationic polymer with cell penetrating properties. Under physiological conditions, PHPE degrades into trans-4-hydroxy-L-prohne (trans-Hyp), a non-coded amino acid with essential functions in collagen fibril formation and fibril sta...
Fabrication of functionalized citrus pectin/silk fibroin scaffolds for skin tissue engineering
Türkkan, Sibel; Atila, Deniz; Akdağ, Akın; Tezcaner, Ayşen (Wiley, 2018-10-01)
In this study, novel porous three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds from silk fibroin (SF) and functionalized (amidated and oxidized) citrus pectin (PEC) were developed for skin tissue engineering applications. Crosslinking was achieved by Schiff's reaction in borax presence as crosslinking coordinating agent and CaCl2 addition. After freeze-drying and methanol treatment, plasma treatment (10 W, 3 min) was applied to remove surface skin layer formed on scaffolds. 3D matrices had high porosity (83%) and interconnec...
EMULSION-BASED PROCESSING AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOMIMETIC HYDROXYAPATITE MICROSPHERES BY USING CALCIUM PHOSPHATE CEMENTS
Öndin, Nilsu; Durucan, Caner; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2022-11-22)
Synthetic materials for bone defects have been widely used for biomedical applications. One of these materials is bioactive ceramic-based microspheres in the size range of couple 100s m. These microspheres are used for irregular defect filling operations due to high packing efficiency. The spherical shape also increases the surface area, reactivity, and cell adhesion. The osteoconduction (bone tissue growth) is the primary concern for hard-tissue replacements and grafts. Alpha-tricalcium phosphate (-TCP, ...
