Abstract
Abstract Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are widely used in clinical practice as preferred materials for bone tissue repair and replacement because of their good mechanical properties; however, as Ti lacks biological activity, clinical application has been limited. Herein, we prepared a manganese–titanium dioxide (Mn–TiO2) microporous biotic coating on Ti surfaces by micro-arc oxidation (MAO). The coating showed good surface topography and was uniformly doped with Mn, and the Mn ions were slowly released. In vitro, the Mn–TiO2 microporous biotic coating promoted the adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and mineralization of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. Moreover, in vivo experiments showed that the coating promoted early osseointegration. We also conducted a preliminary investigation to explore the molecular mechanism underlying the regulation of the function of osteoblasts by the coating. Furthermore, we found that the coating could inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli in vitro, demonstrating reliable antibacterial ability. To conclude, Mn–TiO2 microporous biotic coating can improve the biological activity of Ti implants, which can potentially improve their clinical applications.
Mn-TiO2 microporous biotic coating on titanium surfaces enhances osteogenic activity and antibacterial ability, potentially improving clinical applications for bone tissue repair and replacement.
