- Abstract
- The goal of this study was to evaluate the potential of beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) particles coated
with difference concentrations (1 and 10 mM) of simvastatin acid (SVA) on bone formation in vitro. Changes in the
surface morphologies and chemical compositions of SVA1-β-TCP and SVA10-β-TCP suggested that SVA was
coated on their surface. These particles were further investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations
and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. By measuring ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) spectroscopy,
we found that simvastatin acid (SVA) released in a sustained manner over the period of 28 days even
though the initial burst happened within 1 day. These results verify that SVA1-β-TCP and SVA10-β-TCP can be useful
as a biocompatible bone graft substitutes. Biocompatibility was evaluated by cytotoxicity tests, live/dead assay,
and proliferation of preosteoblast cell-line (MC3T3-E1) cells culture. The results of assays for ALP activity, calcium
deposition, and mRNA expressions of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and osteopontin suggest that the amount of SVA
plays an important role in accelerating bone formation in vitro.
