ABSTRACTBone fractures are one of the most common bone complications. In more severe cases, bone fixation is accomplished using titanium (Ti) implant materials. Unfortunately, the need for revision surgery often arises due to implant loosening and/or deterioration of the implant/bone interface. Rosette nanotubes (RNTs) are a class of self-assembled organic materials obtained through the self-assembly of a guanine-cytosine hybrid base (G∧C motif). These organic materials have been found to increase osteoblast (bone forming cells) adhesion and hydroxyapatite deposition (bone regeneration) on titanium implants as well as on engineered hydrogels. In order to increase the bioactivity of RNTs to enhance bone cell function on Ti implants, two RNT motifs functionalized with different bioactive deca-peptides (A, B) chosen from the knuckle region of bone morphogenic proteins-7 (BMP-7) were synthesized. Their self-assembly process was investigated in water using UV-Vis and SEM techniques.

Thyroparathyroidectomy in the rat results in decreased plasma calcium and magnesium and increased phosphorus. The associated bone changes are decreased calcium, hydroxyproline, carbonate, and wholebone density. Bone magnesium, sodium, mineral density, and percent crystallinity are increased. The delayed matrix formation and mineralization previously identified by histologic techniques are herein characterized by direct measurement as arrest of the normal increase of hydroxyproline/matrix and percent mineral. The bone mineral present is of high density and x-ray-diffraction crystallinity, suggesting a decrease in the mineralization front high in the amorphous phase and/or small nondiffracting crystalloids. The chemical studies reveal that in the absence of available Ca, Mg and Na are substituted, and CO3 is decreased. The restoration of these plasma and bone abnormalities to normal by a diet high in CaCO3 adds further emphasis to the essential role of Ca in bone cell function.
