The bone graft material used for the BCP group in this study was BCP (OSTEON, Genoss, Seoul, Korea). The ratio of β-TCP to HA was 3:7. The bone graft material used for the mBCP group was prepared with a coating procedure on BCP, for which ErhBMP-2 (0.05 mg/mL, Cowellmedi, Busan, Korea) and EGCG (5 mg/mL, purity >90%, Sigma-Aldrich, Ishikari, Hokkaido, Japan) was used [13 (link)17 (link)]. The process was conducted as follows [19 20 (link)]: 1) the hydroxide ion of HA was combined with the silane coupling agent (3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, Sigma-Aldrich), 2) amino radicals were combined with a bifunctional cross-linker (N-succinimidyl-3-maleimidopropionate [SMP], Sigma-Aldrich), 3) SMP was combined with ErhBMP-2 and EGCG, 4) lyophilization was performed, 5) the material was dried (2 hours in a pressure chamber at 7–10 mTorr and more than 2 hours at −20 to 20°C), and 6) sterilization was performed using ethylene oxide.

Immobilization of ErhBMP-2 and EGCG on BCP Surfaces

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
ErhBMP-2 (Cowellmedi, Busan, Korea) and EGCG (Sigma-Aldrich) immobilized grafting materials were stored at 70°C in a deep-freezer. When required, the frozen solution was placed in a lyophilizer (Ilshin Laboratory, Seoul, Korea) for 1 day to sublimate the liquid phase in a vial without denaturation of ErhBMP-2 and EGCG. The BCP surface (OSTEON, Dentium, Seoul, Korea) was coated with a combination of ErhBMP-2 and EGCG using a 3-step technique [23 24 (link)]. The first step was 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (Sigma-Aldrich), in which the OH of HA was reacted with a silane coupling agent. The second step was to combine N-succinimidyl-3-maleimidopropionate (SMP; Sigma-Aldrich) with amino radicals. The last step was to combine EGCG and ErhBMP-2 with SMP. The success of the surface treatment was confirmed through field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM; S4800, Hitachi/Horiba, Japan) (Figure 1).

FGF-2 Coated Biphasic Calcium Phosphate Granules

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) granule (Osteon GBC0305,) was obtained from Dentium Corporation, Suwon, Korea, and FGF-2 was obtained from the Genoss Corporation, Suwon, Korea, respectively. BCP is a 70% hydroxyapatite (HAp) scaffold coated with 30% β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) with a particle size of 0.3–0.5 μm. As previously reported [22 (link)], the procedure for preparing FGF-2 coated BCP (see Figure 1) includes the grafting of 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTES, Sigma, MO, USA) onto the BCP surface and the replacement of the terminal amine by a maleimide functional group that reacts with FGF-2 via a heterobifunctional cross-linker (N-Succinimidyl-3-maleimidopropionate: SMP, Sigma, MO, USA). Briefly, 1.0 g of BCP powder was silanized by 10 mM APTES dissolved in hexane (Sigma, MO, USA) for 2 h. The silanized BCP powder was substituted for maleimide groups by 2 mM SMP dissolved in anhydrous dimethylformamide (DMF, Sigma, MO, USA) for 2 h. Then, FGF-2 dissolved in anhydrous DMF was immobilized on BCP by stirring for 2 h. All experimental procedures were performed at 25°C to avoid the risk of FGF-2 denaturation.

Titanium Surface Functionalization for Cell Studies

Commercially pure Ti grade II disks of 10mm diameter and 2mm height (Technalloy S.A., Sant Cugat del Vallès, Spain) were polished, extensively washed and activated by oxygen plasma [25] .
After reaction with (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (Sigma-Aldrich) and the bifunctional crosslinker N-succinimidyl-3-maleimidopropionate (SMP, Sigma-Aldrich), disks were functionalized with Cys B27(1-18), or B27(1-18) Cys . The coupling procedure [25] and the designations of titanium samples are reported in Fig. S1A (Supplementary material). The wettability and surface chemical composition of titanium samples were evaluated by Static Contact Angle Measurements (CA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) [25] .

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
