RESUMEN
In the process of bone tissue regeneration, regulation of osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling is of great importance. Therefore, dimethyloxallyl glycine (DMOG) is loaded by nanoscale zeolitic imidazolate frameworks-8 (ZIF-8) to obtain a drug-loading system that can promote osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling. Characterization of the drug-loading nanoparticles (DMOG@ZIF-8) reveals that DMOG is successfully loaded into ZIF-8 by two different methods, and the DMOG@ZIF-8 is prepared using the one-pot method (OD@ZIF-8) achieves higher loading efficiency and longer release time than those prepared using the post-loading method (PD@ZIF-8). In vitro studies found that DMOG@ZIF-8 significantly enhances the migration, tube formation, and angiogenesis-related protein secretion of human umbilical vein endothelial cells as well as the extracellular matrix mineralization, alkaline phosphatase activity, and osteogenesis-related protein secretion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Moreover, OD@ZIF-8 nanoparticles are more efficient than PD@ZIF-8 nanoparticles in induction of osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling. Then, in vivo cranial critical defect model shows that the addition of OD@ZIF-8 significantly promotes vascularized bone formation as indicated by the results including microcomputed tomographic, histological and immunofluorescence staining, and so on. Taken together, loading ZIF-8 with DMOG may be a promising solution for critical-sized bone defect reconstruction and the one-pot method is preferred in the preparation of such drug-loading system.

This study evaluated the wettability of commercial vinyl polysiloxane impression materials by measuring contact angles on horizontal and non-horizontal surfaces using artificial saliva. Three light bodies (Affinis [Affi], Silagum [Sila] and Variotime [Vario-LB]) and one extra light body (Viriotime [Vario-ELB]) were prepared with flat surfaces. Static and dynamic contact angles were measured using the sessile drop method as a function of time. Contact angle hysteresis was the value of advancing contact angle minus receding contact angle. The results indicated that all materials were classified as hydrophilic materials. Vario-ELB and Affi showed better initial wettability than the other two materials. Vario-ELB showed more hydrophilic properties and was more vulnerable to changes in the intraoral environment compared to Affi, Sila and Vario-LB. These results suggest that measuring the time-dependent dynamic contact angle on the inclined surface can provide effective information regarding the wettability of impression materials to evaluate their clinical performance.
