Hsp47, a 47kDa heat shock protein whose expression level parallels that of collagen, has been regarded as a collagen-specific molecular chaperone. Studies from other laboratories have established the association of Hsp47 with the nascent as well as the triple-helical procollagen molecule in the endoplasmic reticulum and its dissociation from procollagen in the Golgi. One of several roles suggested for Hsp47 in collagen biosynthesis is the prevention of aggregation of procollagen in the endoplasmic reticulum. However, no experimental evidence has been available to verify this suggestion. In the present study we have followed the aggregation of mature triple-helical collagen molecules into fibrils by using turbidimetric measurements in the absence and presence of Hsp47. In the pH range 6–7, fibril formation of type I collagen, as monitored by turbidimetry, proceeds with a lag of approx. 10min and levels off by approx. 60min. The addition of Hsp47 at pH 7 effectively inhibits fibril formation at and above a 1:1 molar ratio of Hsp47 to triple-helical collagen. This inhibition is markedly pH-dependent, being significantly diminished at pH 6. CD and fluorescence spectral data of Hsp47 in the pH range 4.2–7.4 reveal a significant alteration in its structure at pH values below 6.2, with a decrease in α-helix and an increase in β-structure. This conformational change is likely to be the basis of the decreased binding of Hsp47 to collagen in vitro at pH 6.3 as well as its inability to inhibit collagen fibril formation at this pH. Our results also provide a functional assay for Hsp47 that can be used in studies on collagen and Hsp47 interactions.

In the last years bone tissue engineering has been increasingly indicated as a valid solution to meet the challenging requirements for a healthy bone regeneration in case of bone loss or fracture. In such a context, bioactive glasses have already proved their great potential in promoting the regeneration of new bone tissue due to their high bioactivity. In addition, their composition and structure enable us to incorporate and subsequently release therapeutic ions such as strontium, enhancing the osteogenic properties of the material. The incorporation of these inorganic systems in polymeric matrices enables the formulation of composite systems suitable for the design of bone scaffolds or delivery platforms. Among the natural polymers, type I collagen represents the main organic phase of bone and thus is a good candidate to develop biomimetic bioactive systems for bone tissue regeneration. However, alongside the specific composition and structure, the key factor in the design of new biosystems is creating a suitable interaction with cells and the host tissue. In this scenario, the presented study aimed at combining nano-sized mesoporous bioactive glasses produced by means of a sol–gel route with type I collagen in order to develop a bioactive hybrid formulation suitable for bone tissue engineering applications. The designed system has been fully characterized in terms of physico-chemical and morphological analyses and the ability to release Sr2+ ions has been studied observing a more sustained profile in presence of the collagenous matrix. With the aim to improve the mechanical and thermal stability of the resulting hybrid system, a chemical crosslinking approach using 4-star poly (ethylene glycol) ether tetrasuccinimidyl glutarate (4-StarPEG) has been explored. The biocompatibility of both non-crosslinked and 4-StarPEG crosslinked systems was evaluated by in vitro tests with human osteoblast-like MG-63 cells. Collected results confirmed the high biocompatibility of composites, showing a good viability and adhesion of cells when cultured onto the biomaterial samples.

Natural bone constitutes of an inorganic phase (a biological nanoapatite) and an organic phase (mostly type I collagen). The challenge is to develop a material that can regenerate lost bone tissue with degradation and resorption kinetics compatible with the new bone formation. The aim of this study was to prepare self-organized magnesium and carbonate substituted apatite/collagen scaffolds, cross-linked with glutaraldehyde (GA). Bovine tendon was submitted to alkaline treatment resulting in a negatively charged collagen surface. The scaffolds were prepared by precipitation: simultaneous dropwise addition of solution containing calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) ions and collagen into a buffered solution containing carbonate and phosphate ions in reaction vessel maintained at 37 °C, pH=8. The reaction products were cross-linked with 0.125 and 0.25% (v/v) glutaraldehyde (GA) solution and freeze-dried. The samples were characterized by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). In vitro cytotoxicity (based on three parameters assays) and scaffolds degradation in culture medium and osteoblastic cells culture were performed in the cross-linked materials. No cytotoxic effects were observed. The cross-linked samples with the lower GA concentration showed a lower stability when placed in contact with culture medium. Human osteoblasts attached on the scaffolds surface cross-linked with 0.25% GA, forming a continuous layer after 14 days of incubation. These results showed potential application of the designed scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.
