摘要：Lack of bioactivity has seriously restricted the development of biodegradable implants for bone tissue engineering. Therefore, surface modification of the composite is crucial to improve the osteointegration for bone regeneration. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), a key factor in inducing osteogenesis and promoting bone regeneration, has been widely used in various clinical therapeutic trials. In this study, BMP-2 was successfully immobilized on graphene oxide-incorporated PLGA/HA (GO-PLGA/HA) biodegradable microcarriers. Our study demonstrated that the graphene oxide (GO) facilitated the simple and highly efficient immobilization of peptides on PLGA/HA microcarriers within 120 min. To further test in vitro, MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured on different microcarriers to observe various cellular activities. It was found that GO and HA significantly enhanced cell adhesion and proliferation. More importantly, the immobilization of BMP-2 onto the GO-PLGA/HA microcarriers resulted in significantly greater osteogenic differentiation of cells in vitro, as indicated by the alkaline phosphate activity test, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, immunofluorescence staining and mineralization on the deposited substrates. Findings from this study revealed that the method to use GO-PLGA/HA microcarriers for immobilizing BMP-2 has a great potential for the enhancement of the osseointegration of bone implants.
