Mineralization and Osteoblast Cells Response of Nanograde Pearl Powders

الملخص EN

The main objective of this study is to characterize the thermal, mineralization, and osteoblast cells response of pearl nanocrystallites.

The results obtained from X-ray diffraction, FTIR spectra demonstrate that the pearl nano-crystallites can induce the formation of an HA layer on their surface in SBF, even after only short soaking periods.

The in vitro cell response to nano-grade pearl powders is assessed by evaluating the cytotoxicity against a mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line and by characterizing the attachment ability and alkaline phosphatase activity of mouse bone cells (MC3T3-E1, abbreviated to E1) and bone marrow stromal precursor (D1) cells.

The cytotoxicities of pearls were tested by the filtration and culture of NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells.

The viability of the cultured cells in media containing pearl crystallites for 24 and 72 h is greater than 90%.

The bone cells seen in these micrographs are elongated and align predominately along the pearl specimen.

The cells observed in these images also appeared well attached and cover the surface almost completely after 1 h.

The pearl nanocrystallites had a positive effect on the osteogenic ability of ALP activity, and this promoted the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs significantly at explanations.
