Hierarchical Collagen/Apatite Co-assembly for Injection of Mineralized Fibrillar Tissue Analogues

Résumé

Mineralized biological tissues rich in type I collagen (e.g., bone and dentin) exhibit complex anisotropic suprafibrillar organizations in which the organic and inorganic moieties are intimately coassembled over several length scales. Above a critical size, a defect in such tissue cannot be self-repaired. Biomimetic materials with a composition and microstructure similar to that of bone have been shown to favorably influence bone regeneration. This highlights the value of developing a similar formulation in an injectable form to enable minimally invasive techniques. Here, we report on the fabrication and application potential of an injectable collagen/CHA (carbonated hydroxyapatite) cell-free hydrogel. The organic part consists of spray-dried nondenatured and dense collagen microparticles, while the inorganic part consists of biomimetic apatite mineral. By mixing both powders at desired tissue-like ratios with an aqueous solvent in one step, spontaneous co-self-assembly occurs, leading to the formation of a mineralized matrix with suprafibrillar tissue-like features thanks to the induced liquid crystalline properties of collagen on one hand and apatite on the other hand. When injected into soft tissue, the mineralized collagen hydrogel free of chemical cross-linking agents exhibits suitable cohesion and is biocompatible. Preliminary in vitro tests in a tooth cavity model show its integration onto dentin with a biomimetic interface. Based on the results, this versatile injectable mineralized collagen hydrogel shows promising potential as a biomaterial for bone tissue repair and mineralized tissue-like ink for bioprinting applications.
