The Primary Investigation on Biological Effect of Mesoporous Bioactive Glass In Vivo

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) has superior bioactivity and degradation than non-mesoporous bioactive glass (BG) in vitro. But the biological effect of MBG in vivo is still unknown. In this study, MBG powders with 20μm were implanted into the femoral condyles in SD rats. BG powders with 20μm were used as a control. The local degradation and osteogenesis were observed at 1 week and 4 weeks after implantation, and the systemic toxicity of the degradation products were also evaluated simultaneously. The results revealed MBG powders had the faster rate of degradation and better osteogenesis effect than BG powders at 4 weeks, although the most of material still remained in situ. Histopathological analyses indicated the degradation products did not have any damage to major organs such as liver and kidney. In conclusion, this preliminary study demonstrated that MBG powders have more excellent biological effect at 4 weeks than that of BG in vivo. However the long-term effect needs to be confirmed.
