One of the most common concerns in the regeneration of massive bone defects necessitating surgery and bone grafts is the application of tissue engineering using drug delivery. Zoledronate is a well-known effective drug for the healing bone fractures in osteoporotic patients.

An attempt was made to design a more efficient bone scaffold with polycaprolactone, polylactic acid, and hydroxyapatite.

The scaffold was fabricated by freeze-drying and indirect 3D printing approaches. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, rheometry, scanning electron microscopy, and neutral red tests were performed to characterize the scaffold. qRT-PCR was also done to define the osteoinductivity and angiogenic induction capacity of this scaffold. Forty rats were selected and randomly divided into four groups: the control group, which received no treatment, the autograft group, scaffold group, and Zol-loaded scaffold group (n=10 in each group). The injured area was studied by radiology, biomechanical analysis, histopathology, histomorphometry, immunohistochemistry, and CT scan analyses.

The qRT-PCR results demonstrated significantly higher expression levels of OPN, OCN, and CD31 markers in the scaffold group when compared to the control group (P<0.05). Histopathologically, the newly formed bone tissue was significantly detected in the Zol-loaded scaffold and autograft groups in comparison with the non-treated group (P<0.001). The immunohistochemistry (OC marker), biomechanical, and histomorphometric results indicated a significant improvement in the regeneration of the injured area in the groups treated with autologous bone and Zol-loaded scaffold compared to the non-treated group (P<0.05).

The Zol-loaded scaffold accelerated bone regeneration, and led to enhanced structural performance and functional ability of the injured radial bone in rats.

Fracture repair is a complex biological process that requires the cooperation of various types of cells and materials. Today, various techniques such as low-density pulse ultrasonography and electrical stimulation are used to accelerate bone healing. The therapeutic effects of ozone on bone repair have been considered in recent years. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of ozone gas on the speed of full-thickness bone defect healing. We selected 30 male weight equal rabbits and, in aseptic surgery, resected a 3-mm-thick piece of full-thickness of bone. Then we divided randomly them into two equal groups, the control, and the recipient. In the first, second, third, and sixth weeks of the radiographed bones were obtained. Also, in the third, sixth, and eighth weeks of each group, 5 rabbits were euthanized and their bones were histopathologically evaluated. Results from the second to sixth weeks of the study showed a significant difference between the treatment group and the control group. This difference was indicative of an increase in the rate of bone healing in the treatment group. Ozone therapy can therefore be considered effective in bone healing.
