Objective To fabricate nanosilicate functionalized polycaprolactone(PCL/LAP)electrospun membrane and evaluate its role in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)-induced bone repairing.Methods The PCL/LAP electrospun membranes were fabricated via electrospinning technology and co-cultured with rat BMSCs.The cytocompatibility of the membranes was evaluated through cytoskeleton staining,live/dead cell staining and CCK-8 assay.The migration capacity of BMSCs was assessed using scratch assay,Transwell migration experiments and expression of migration-related genes(Pdgf and Tgfβ)was evaluated by qRT-PCR.The os-teogenic differentiation and pro-angiogenesis potential were determined by alkaline phosphatase(ALP)staining,alizarin red staining,expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes(Alp,Col1a1,Runx2,Bglap and Bmp2)and angiogenesis-related genes(Angpt1,Fgf2 and Vegfa)along with RUNX2 protein expression.PCL and PCL/LAP electrospun membranes conditioned medium was subsequently used to stimulate vascular endothelial cells(EAhy926).The expression of angiogenesis-associated genes(KDR,ENOS and HIF1A)was quantified by qRT-PCR.Results BMSCs adhered well to the surface of the PCL/LAP membranes,with no significant impact on cell viability(P＞0.05).PCL/LAP membranes not only promoted the proliferation(P＜0.05),migration(P＜0.05),but also enhanced ALP activity and mineralized nodule formation(P＜0.05),increased osteogenic differentiation gene and protein expression(P＜0.05)of BMSCs.Moreover,PCL/LAP promoted the expression of angiogenic genes of BMSCs(P＜0.05),to indirectly regulate angiogenesis-related gene expression in vascular endothelial cells(P＜0.05).Conclusion PCL/LAP electrospun membranes exhibit excellent biocompatibility and can promote proliferation,migration,osteogenic differentiation and BMSC-mediated angiogenic differentiation,showing great potential for bone defect repairing as barrier membrane.

How to obtain ideal regeneration of periodontal tissue remains a challenge in the clinical treatment of periodontitis. Three-dimensional printing technology is based on computer-aided design, which produces materials with specific 3D shapes by layer-by-layer superposition, and has been applied to periodontal tissue regeneration therapy, this method offers hope to achieve ideal periodontal regeneration. This article reviews the application of 3D printing technology in the field of periodontal tissue regeneration. The literature review results show that 3D printing technology can design three-dimensional structures using computer software in advance and produce materials with specific three-dimensional structures. 3D printing technology mainly includes selective laser sintering, selective laser melting, extrusion forming printing and 3D bioprinting. At present, the support materials prepared by 3D printing technology include ceramic materials, polymer materials and metals. Submaterials have been extensively studied given their high adjustability, and 3D-printed personalized titanium mesh has been applied in the clinic. Multiphase materials prepared by 3D-printing technology can regenerate periodontal tissue in animal experiments, but the effect is not good in patients with periodontitis. In addition, 3D printing of composite scaffolds for periodontal tissue regeneration need to be further studied.
