RESUMEN

Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) bone cement (PBC) is commonly used in orthopaedic surgery. However, polymerization volumetric shrinkage, exothermic injury, and low bioactivity prevent PBC from being an ideal material. The developed expandable P(MMA-AA-St) well overcomes the volumetric shrinkage of PBC. However, its biomechanical properties are unsatisfactory. Herein, graphene oxide (GO), a hydrophilic material with favourable biomechanics and osteogenic capability, was added to P(MMA-AA-St) to optimize its biomechanics and bioactivity. The GO-modified self-expandable P(MMA-AA-St)-GO nanocomposite (PGBCs) exhibited outstanding compressive strength (>70 â€‹MPa), water absorption, and volume expansion, as well as a longer handling time and a reduced setting temperature. The cytocompatibility of PGBCs was superior to that of PBC, as demonstrated by CCK-8 assay, live-dead cell staining, and flow cytometry. In addition, better osteoblast attachment was observed, which could be attributed to the effects of GO. The improved level of osteogenic gene and protein expression further illustrated the improved cell-material interactions between osteoblasts and PGBCs. The results of an in vivo study performed by filling bone defects in the femoral condyles of rabbits with PGBCs demonstrated promising intraoperative handling properties and convenient implantation. Blood testing and histological staining demonstrated satisfactory in vivo biosafety. Furthermore, bone morphological and microarchitecture analyses using bone tissue staining and micro-CT scanning revealed better bone-PGBCs contact and osteogenic capability. The results of this study indicate that GO modification improved the physiochemical properties, cytocompatibility, and osteogenic capability of P(MMA-AA-St) and overcame the drawbacks of PBC, allowing its material derivatives to serve as effective implantable biomaterials.
