The biomimetic periosteum mimicking the fibrous and cambium layers of the natural periosteum has been found to have immunomodulatory and osteogenic functions. It has shown promising results in in vitro and in vivo experiments, making it a potential alternative to periosteal autografts.
The periosteum plays an indispensable role in immunomodulation and osteogenesis during bone regeneration. The natural periosteum has a hierarchical structure, in which the outer fibrous layer is composed of fibrous tissue arranged in parallel, while disorganized nanofibers are found in the inner cambium layer. Herein, inspired by the nanostructure/function of the periosteum, we designed a collagen membrane aligned in an oriented manner (CMalig) to mimic the fibrous layer of the natural periosteum and thereby facilitate the M1-to-M2 phenotypic macrophage transition. The randomly oriented nanofiber membrane (CMrand) simulated the cambium layer and promoted the osteogenic differentiation of endogenous bone progenitor cells. CM(alig )induced the M2 polarization of RAW 264.7 cells in vitro, and numerous CD206(+)F4/80(+) cells were observed at femur defect sites after CMalig treatment. CM(rand )promoted the osteogenic differentiation of periosteal stem cells and ectopic bone formation in a subcutaneous implantation model. These heterotopic ossifications were also verified in a rat Achilles tendon defect model. The biomimetic periosteum with a hierarchical structure significantly accelerated new bone formation in the rat femur defect model. These results suggest that the hierarchically structured biomimetic periosteum with immunomodulatory and osteogenic functions can be used as an alternative to periosteal autografts.
