Supramolecular Hydrogels Based on MPEG-Grafted Hyaluronic Acid and .ALPHA.-CD Containing HP-.BETA.-CD/Simvastatin Enhance Osteogenesis In Vivo
Journal of nanoscience and nanotechnology(2017)
摘要
Simvastatin (SIM) accelerates new bone formation both in vitro and in vivo by enhancing the expression of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). In this study, we evaluated the effect of water-solubility of SIM on new bone formation by preparing two types of supramolecular hydrogels: pseudopolyrotaxanes (PPRXs) based on metoxy polyethyleneglycol-grafted hyaluronic acid (MPEG-g-HA) and alpha-cyclodextrin (alpha-CD) containing water-soluble hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin/simvastatin inclusion complex (HP-beta-CD-ic-SIM; MPEG-g-HA/alpha-CD/HP-beta-CD-ic-SIM) or only SIM (MPEG-g-HA/alpha-CD/SIM). As compared to MPEG-g-HA/alpha-CD/SIM, SIM was more rapidly released from MPEG-g-HA/alpha-CD/HP-beta-CD-ic-SIM in a sustained manner owing to increased water-solubility. New bone actively formed at the calvarial defect site in a rabbit model 4 weeks after implantation, as examined by micro computed tomography (micro CT), hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, and Goldner's trichrome staining. The results showed that the water-solubility of SIM plays a significant role in enhancing new bone formation in vivo.
