Abstract :

Chitosan biopolymer offer good possibilities in the field of osteoporosis treatment after its association with bioactive glass. However, the quality of new bone after implantation is yet to be extensively investigated. This study characterized the newly formed bone tissue of chitosan-doped bioactive glass (BG-CH) implants. In this work, BG-CH was implanted in the femoral condyl of ovariectomised rats (OVX). The resected bone was prepared for analysis using several physico-chemical, biological and histological assays such as fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive x-ray (EDX) and histomorphometry. BG-CH biomaterial favored calcium phosphate layer integration on the surface of the glass and offered better bioactivity. Moreover, the histomorphometric analysis demonstrated that BV/TV and N.Ob were significantly higher in BG-CH treated rats groups than those of pure bioactive glass (BG) groups. However, Ob. S/BS and OV/BV were significantly lower in BG-CH treated rats groups than those of BG groups. The Oc.S/ BS were significantly decreased in BG-CH groups, when compared with that of BG rat groups. These findings suggest that BG-CH can be used as an inhibitory therapeutic potential of osteoporosis by delivering chitosan to stimulate new bone remodeling.
