Human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) are known as ideal seed cells for the regeneration of periodontal tissues. Several factors (i.e., vitamin D, luteolin, and 6-bromoindirubin-3'-oxime) have been shown to promote osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs. In this study, we aim to investigate the effect of vitamin A on cell proliferation, migration, and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs. hPDLCs were cultured in osteogenic induction medium supplemented with different concentrations of vitamin A. Cell proliferation and migration assays were conducted after 24, 48, and 72 h of incubation, whereas osteogenic differentiation and osteogenesis-related gene expression were assessed after 21 d only. Our results demonstrated that 1-µM vitamin A stimulation exerted the most potent promotion effect on cell proliferation, migration, and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs. It also induced significant upregulation of osteogenic differentiation-related genes and mitochondrial complexes II and IV in hPDLCs. Vitamin A may serve as a promising potential candidate for periodontal tissue regeneration.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) is widely used as a bone graft. However, information on the head-to-head osteoinductivity and in vivo performance of micro- and nanosized natural and synthetic HA is still lacking. Here, we fabricated nanosized bovine HA (nanoBHA) by using a wet ball milling method and compared its in vitro and in vivo performance with microsized BHA, nanosized synthetic HA (nanoHA), and microsized synthetic HA (HA).

In this study, we explored the impact of different biomechanical loadings on lumbar spine motion segments, particularly concerning intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). We aimed to uncover the cellular milieu and mechanisms driving ossification in the nucleus pulposus (NP) during IVDD, a process whose underlying mechanisms have remained elusive. The study involved the examination of fresh NP tissue from the L3-S1 segment of five individuals, either with IVDD or healthy.

Calcium phosphates, notably monetite, are valued biomaterials for bone applications owing to their osteogenic properties and rapid uptake by bone cells. This study investigates the enhancement of these properties through Cobalt doping, which is known to induce hypoxia and promote bone cell differentiation. Heat treatments at 700°C, 900°C, and 1050°C are applied to both monetite and Cobalt-doped monetite, facilitating the development of purer, more crystalline phases with varied particle sizes and optimized cellular responses.
