Background : The development of an ideal implant material with appropriate antibacterial properties and that improves osteogenesis is essential for the guidance of new bone formation in orthopedic and tooth implant surgeries. In this study, we developed minocycline-modified pure titanium.
Methods: We exploited the chemistry of polydopamine (PD) for the coating of minocycline. PD was coated on pure titanium, on which minocycline was subsequently immobilized under certain conditions. Minocycline coating was verified by characterizing the surface chemical composition of the coated Ti sheet and was quantitatively measured by fluorescamine assay.
Results: The minocycline-coated pure titanium showed a lower bacterial adhesion rate and supported the spread of the osteogenesis differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). A remarkable increase in alkaline phosphatase activity and calcium deposition was found when hMSCs were cultured on minocycline-coated pure titanium for 28 days.
Conclusions: The minocycline-coated pure titanium may be optimized as clinically applicable bioactive materials for implant and bone materials.
