    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: We used surface-modified titanium (Ti) substrates with a multilayered structure composed of chitosan-catechol (Chi-C), gelatin (Gel) and hydroxyapatite (HA) nanofibers, which were previously shown to improve osteogenesis, as a platform to investigate the interaction of osteogenesis and angiogenesis during bone healing. Combined techniques of Transwell co-culture, wound healing assay, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), western blotting and immunohistochemical staining were used to evaluate adhesion, morphology and migration of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) grown on different Ti substrates. We investigated the effect of substrates on the osteogenic differentiation of Ad-MSCs and reciprocal paracrine effects of Ad-MSCs on HUVECs or vice versa. The multilayered Ti substrates directly regulated the cellular functions of Ad-MSCs and angiogenic HUVECs and mediated communication between them by enhancing paracrine effects via cell-matrix interactions in vitro. The in vivo results showed that the change of microenvironment induced by surface-modified Ti implants promoted the adhesion, recruitment and proliferation of MSCs and facilitated coupled osteogenesis and angiogenesis in bone healing. The study proved that multilayer-film-coated Ti substrates positively mediated cellular biological function in vitro and improved bone healing in vivo. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Recent studies have revealed that osteogenesis and angiogenesis are coupled, and that communication between osteoblasts and endothelial cells is essential for bone healing and remodeling processes; however, these conclusions only result from in vitro studies or in vivo studies using transgenic murine models. Relatively little is known about the communication between osteoblasts and endothelial cells in peri-implants during bone healing processes. Our results revealed the cellular/molecular mechanism of how multilayered Ti substrates mediate reciprocal paracrine effects between adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells; moreover, the interactions between the cell-matrix and peri-implant was proven in vivo with enhanced bone healing. This study contributes to our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of angiogenesis and osteogenesis that affect peri-implantation, and thus, provides new insights into the design of future high-quality orthopedic implants.
