This paper investigates the interaction of human osteoblast-like Saos-2 cells with stainless steel covered by a film of densely inter-grown silicalite-1 crystals with defined outer and inner surfaces. The chemical composition of this film, labeled as SF(RT), was tuned by heat treatment at 300°C and 500°C (labeled as SF(300) and SF(500), respectively) and characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), water drop contact angle (WCA) measurements and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The number, the spreading area and the activity of alkaline phosphatase of human osteoblast-like Saos-2 cells in cultures on the silicalite-1 film were affected by the chemical composition of its outer surface and by its micro-porous structure. The number and the spreading area of the adhered osteoblast-like cells on day 1 was highest on the surface of SF(RT) relative to their adhesion and spreading on a glass cover slip due to the SF(RT) topology. However, SF(300) markedly supported cell growth during days 3 and 7 after seeding.

Due to the chemical composition and structure of the target tissue, autologous bone grafting remains the gold standard for orthopedic applications worldwide. However, ongoing advancements in alternative grafting materials show that 3D-printed synthetic biomaterials offer many advantages. For instance, they provide high availability, have low clinical limitations, and can be designed with a chemical composition and structure comparable to the target tissue.

Several techniques are used to produce biological scaffolds; among them, far-field electrospinning (FFES) process is widely used due to its versatility in producing promising structures similar to native tissues owing to the electrospun nanofibers. On the other hand, near-field electrospinning (NFES) has been investigated due to the possibility of creating scaffolds with suitable architecture for their use in specific biological tissues.

The simple oxides like titania, zirconia, and ZnO are famous with their antibacterial (or even antimicrobial) properties as well as their biocompatibility. They are broadly used for air and water filtering, in food packaging, in medicine (for implants, prostheses, and scaffolds), etc. However, these application fields can be broadened by switching to the composite multicomponent compounds (for example, titanates) containing in their unit cell, together with oxygen, several different metallic ions.

Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death in women. In advanced stages of the disease, breast cancer can spread and metastasize to the bone, contributing to malignant progression. The roles of tissue stiffness and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment are relevant in influencing cancer progression and invasiveness, but they are still poorly understood.

This article presents a study on the functional properties and morphology of coatings based on amorphous silicon oxycarbide modified with phosphate ions and comodified with aluminum and boron. The objective of this modification was to enhance the biocompatibility and bioactivity without affecting its protective properties. The comodification was aimed toward stabilization of phosphate in the structure.
