文摘

Hydroxyapatite and Bioglass^®-45S5 were sintered together creating new ceramic compositions that yielded increased apatite deposition and osteoblast differentiation and proliferation in vitro compared to hydroxyapatite. The sintered products characterized by X-ray diffraction, revealed hydroxyapatite as the main phase when small quantities (1, 2.5 and 5 wt. % ) of bioglass was added. Bioglass behaved as a sintering aid with β-TCP (Ca₃(PO₄)₂) being the minor phase. The amount of β-TCP increased with the amount of bioglass added. In compositions with larger additions of bioglass (10 and 25 wt. % ), new phases with compositions of calcium phosphate silicate (Ca₅(PO₄)₂SiO₄) and sodium calcium phosphate (Na₃Ca₆(PO₄)₅) were formed respectively within amorphous silicate matrices. In vitro cell culture studies of the ceramic compositions were examined using bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC). Cell proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells into osteoblasts were determined by Pico Green DNA assays and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, respectively. All hydroxyapatite–bioglass co-sintered ceramics exhibited larger cell proliferation compared to pure hydroxyapatite samples. After 6 days in cell culture, the ceramic with Ca₅(PO₄)₃SiO₄ in a silicate matrix formed by reacting hydroxyapatite with 10 wt. % bioglass exhibited the maximum proliferation of the BMSC's. The ALP activity was found to be largest in the ceramic with Na₃Ca₆(PO₄)₅ embedded in a silicate matrix synthesized by reacting hydroxyapatite with 25 wt. % bioglass.
