Resumen:
Bacterial infection remains a significant problem associated with orthopaedic surgeries leading to surgical site infection (SSI). This unmet medical need can become an even greater complication when surgery is due to malignant bone tumor. In the present study, we evaluated in vitro titanium (Ti) implants subjected to gallium (Ga) and silver (Ag)-doped thermochemical treatment as strategy to prevent SSI and improve osteointegration in bone defects caused by diseases such as osteoporosis, bone tumor, or bone metastasis. Firstly, as Ga has been reported to be an osteoinductive and anti-resorptive agent, its performance in the mixture was proved by studying human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) and pre-osteoclasts (RAW264.7) behaviour. Then, the antibacterial potential provided by Ag was assessed by resembling "The Race for the Surface" between hMSC and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in two co-culture methods. Moreover, the presence of quorum sensing molecules in the co-culture was evaluated. The results highlighted the suitability of the mixture to induce osteodifferentiation and reduce osteoclastogenesis in vitro . Furthermore, the GaAg surface promoted strong survival rate and retained osteoinduction potential of hMSCs even after bacterial inoculation. Therefore, GaAg-modified titanium may be an ideal candidate to repair bone defects caused by excessive bone resorption, in addition to preventing SSI.
