    Abstract:
    Regenerating periodontal defects in osteoporosis patients presents a significant clinical challenge. Unlike the relatively straightforward regeneration of homogeneous bone tissue, periodontal regeneration requires the intricate reconstruction of the cementum-periodontal ligament-alveolar bone interface. Strontium (Sr)-doped biomaterials have been extensively utilized in bone tissue engineering due to their remarkable pro-osteogenic attributes. However, their application in periodontal tissue regeneration has been scarcely explored. In this study, we synthesized an innovative injectable Sr-BGN/GNM scaffold by integrating Sr-doped bioactive glass nanospheres (Sr-BGNs) into the nanofiber architecture of gelatin nanofiber microspheres (GNMs). This design, mimicking the natural bone extracellular matrix (ECM), enhanced the scaffold's mechanical properties and effectively controlled the sustained release of Sr ions (Sr2+), thereby promoting the proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and ECM secretion of PDLSCs and BMSCs, as well as enhancing vascularization in endothelial cells. In vivo experiments further indicated that the Sr-BGNs/GNMs significantly promoted osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Moreover, the scaffold's tunable degradation kinetics optimized the prolonged release and pro-regenerative effects of Sr2+ in vivo, matching the pace of periodontal regeneration and thereby facilitating the regeneration of functional periodontal tissues under osteoporotic conditions. Therefore, Sr-BGNs/GNMs emerge as a promising candidate for advancing periodontal regeneration strategies.
