Coculture of cells in vitro for bone regeneration
Sloupová, Lenka ; Filová, Eva (advisor) ; Tlapáková, Tereza (referee)
Cocultivation of two (or more) cell types in vitro leading to the formation of functioning bone tissue, later inserted into the damaged area, could be a solution for patients for whom the current methods (e.g. use of human bone grafts) are insufficient. In coculture, one cell type is used to accomplish osteogenesis, while the other is used for angiogenesis, because the limit of diffusion of O2 and essential nutrients is only 200 μm, which means that establishing a vascular network in vitro should prevent the new bone tissue from dying after implantation. Creation and understanding of a functioning coculture in vitro are crucial for developing a coculture successful in vivo. This work summarises and compares information about the influence of in vitro cocultivation on proliferation, osteogenesis and angiogenesis in coculture which uses osteoblasts (or osteoprogenitors), bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) or adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC) as it's osteogenic cell type combined with various endothelial cell types. In order to understand the impact of cocultivation on these processes, one chapter deals with interactions between cocultured cell types. Keywords coculture, osteogenesis, angiogenesis, in vitro, osteoblasts, BMSC, ADSC
The effect of carbon nanostructures on human cell behavior and the role of fetal bovine serum in cell adhesion
Verdánová, Martina ; Hubálek Kalbáčová, Marie (advisor) ; Brábek, Jan (referee) ; Smetana, Karel (referee)
Graphene (G) and nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) are carbon allotropes and promising nanomaterials with an excellent combination of their properties, such as high mechanical strength, electrical and thermal conductivity, possibility of functionalization and very high surface area to volume ratio. For these reasons, G and NCD are employed next to electronics in biomedical applications, including implant coating, drug and gene delivery and biosensing. For a fundamental characterization of cell behavior on G and NCD, we studied osteoblast adhesion and proliferation on differently treated G and NCD. Generally, both G and NCD exhibited better properties for osteoblast cultivation than control tissue culture polystyrene. Better cell adhesion but lower cell proliferation were observed on NCD compared to G. The most surprising finding was that hydrophobic G with nanowrinkled topography enhanced cell proliferation extensively, in comparison to hydrophilic and flat G and both NCDs (hydrophobic and hydrophilic) with slightly higher roughness. Promoted cell proliferation enables faster cell colonization of G and NCD substrates, meaning faster new tissue formation which is beneficial in biomedical applications. Furthermore, it was shown that osteoblast adhesion was promoted in the initial absence of fetal bovine...
Adhesion, growth and differentiation of osteoblasts and mesenchymal stromal cells on biocompatible nanomaterial surfaces
Brož, Antonín ; Hubálek Kalbáčová, Marie (advisor) ; Černý, Jan (referee) ; Kylián, Ondřej (referee)
The thesis is based on articles describing the fundamental research of carbon based nanomaterials for their possible utilization in biomedicine. The aim of this thesis was to describe the way how human osteoblasts (SAOS-2 cell line) and primary human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) adhere, grow and behave on surfaces made of several carbon allotropes - nanocrystalline diamond (NCD), single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) films and graphene. The utilization of carbon as the basic material promised good biocompatibility and possibility of useful surface modifications. The NCD had modified surface nanotopography (nanoroughness and nanostructuring prepared by dry ion etching). All the materials had modified surface atomic termination with oxygen and hydrogen which changes the surface electrical conductivity, surface charge and wettability. It was hypothesized that the surface termination can also influence the cell adhesion and growth. It turned out that all the studied materials were suitable as substrates for cultivation of mentioned cell types. Various nanoroughnesses of NCD surface had different effect on the cell adhesion and cell metabolic activity. Nanostructuring of the NCD influenced the formation of focal adhesions. The surface terminations of NCD and the other studied nanomaterials in...
Growth of human osteoblasts SaOS2 on titanium modified with nanotubes.
Krýslová, Markéta ; Filová, Elena (advisor) ; Melkes, Barbora (referee)
This work summarizes information about the interactions between osteoblasts and nanostructured materials, which are of growing importance and are highly promising in regard to their application in medicine and in tissue engineering. The number of people with artificial replacements of tissues, such as bones, joints, teeth, cartilage, and tendons increases every year. Titanium and his alloys are extensively used for artificial tissue replacements. Titanium is favourable for its mechanical properties that allow the implant to remain in the place of implantation more than thirty years. For better osseointegration the surface of titanium can be modified with hydroxyapatite, coating with diamond-like carbon or plasma spray coating. Another option is to prepare a layer of nanotubes, which forms nanoroughness on material surface. The nanoroughness in turn improves physical and chemical properties of the material surface. Nanostructured materials mimic the natural bone tissue, support adsorption of specific proteins, improve the biocompatibility of the implants and positively influence cell behaviour, e.g. stimulate the synthesis and suitable conformation of specific molecules for cell adhesion and differentiation.
Biomimetic modifications of titanium in bone tissue engineering.
Krýslová, Markéta ; Filová, Elena (advisor) ; Rampichová, Michala (referee)
When the big joints like a knee or hip joint are damaged, the solution of this problem is an artificial substitute. The replacement of damaged joints with endoprotesis helps to reduce the pain and to move normally. In the design of the implant is necessary to fulfil all requirements on the properties of the material. The surface of implant is important, because it is directly connected to bone tissue. After implantation, the negative effect include infection, inflammation or release of the implant due to limited osseointegration, may appear. The osseointegration can be improved by modifying the material surface. This thesis is focused on development and evaluation of advanced materials imitating the bone structure, especially nanoroughness and the presence of biomimetic component, such as hydroxyapatite. In this study is evaluated adhesion, proliferation, viability, differentiation, and synthesis of specific proteins of human osteoblasts like Saos-2 on titanium modified with nanotubes and plasma sprayed hydroxyapatite compared with smooth surfaces. Key words: titanium, nanotubes, osteoblasts, hydroxyapatite, nanoroughness
