Definitions
- the present invention relates to a biological hard tissue-inducing scaffold material composed of titanium or a titanium-based alloy fiber used with orthopedic implants such as artificial tooth implants and artificial joint implants, and a method for producing the same.
- the present invention relates to a reactor for cell culture propagation in regenerative medical engineering.
- titanium and titanium alloys in particular has recently increased rapidly. It is that titanium has excellent properties with less foreign body reaction in vivo compared to other metals, and that it is lightweight and durable
- BMP Breast Morphogenetic Protein
- osteoblasts and other medical materials, such as titanium implants.
- BMPs, etc. that are involved in speech guidance are also used. Combined use with these physiologically active substances is effective, and osteoblasts can be seen in the vicinity of the titanium metal material. Cell formation has not been achieved.
- a thin wire made of titanium or a titanium alloy is wrapped around an arandom around the implant core to be provided, stacked and compressed in the direction of the core to form a compressed molded body having a desired shape and dimensions. It has been proposed to combine titanium with a core to form a titanium dental implant having a buffer function (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 8-140996). What is specifically shown here as the fine wire is that the diameter is preferably 0.1 mm or 0.7 mm, particularly 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm.
- the meaning of the “body” is that, in response to external force, ie, external occlusal force, it elastically responds to the omnidirectional force in all directions and performs a buffering action, and invasion of living bone tissue from the numerous pores of the molded body In order to increase the so-called bone formation of the implanted part by allowing growth and growth, it is intended to ensure good stability of the implanted part.
- a process for producing a “bubble structure” by placing a mixture of a metal and a foaming agent in a mold, heating the mixture to a temperature equal to or higher than the melting point under pressure, and releasing the pressurizing gas at an appropriate time (US Pat.
- the size of the opening cell formed by the bubbles is in the range of about 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm, and the “bubble structure” is formed in a thin layer of 1.5 mm to 3 mm. Is disclosed.
- the former proposal basically requires a thickness of 0.1 mm to 0.7 mm.
- One titanium filament is prepared, wound around the implant core, compressed, and forms a porous space between the overlapping fibers that allows the penetration and growth of new bone tissue.
- this method secures the mounting relationship with the core by compressing and winding the wire in the direction of the core, and the room where porous voids can be prepared therein should be extremely small. If the wire is wound loosely in order to secure a certain amount of air gap, it is not possible to secure the connection of the wire to the core. In other words, there is a limit to the invasion and proliferation of bone tissue by such means, and it has not yet been possible to form a sufficiently intelligent osteointegration tissue.
- the “bubble structure” is controlled exclusively by the “amount and shape of gas” with respect to the molten metal, and therefore has a direct effect on osteoblast invasion, implantation, and proliferation. It is not easy to control the size, distribution state, wall thickness, etc. of the cells to be given, and the disclosed open cell size is about 0.5 mm to 1.5 mm. However, the problem is that the cell wall thickness is almost the same or more than that of the open cell in consideration of the scale according to the attached drawing. It can not be said that it is very different based on the bead diameter, and it cannot be expected to have an affinity with bone cells to bring about the formation of integration with tissue.
- any conventional technique using titanium or a titanium-based alloy, which is said to be compatible with living tissue has problems in various points as shown above, At present, it cannot be said that a sufficient structure has been formed, which is called so-called “steointegration” integrated with titanium materials. After the operation, the joint between the bone and the titanium may loosen from the margin, leading to the dropout soon and often, which may make the patient feel uncomfortable during that time. It was problematic because it was inevitable.
- the connection between bone and metal is a planar connection.
- all of the conventional techniques aim at connecting the bone tissue and the metallic implant with a secondary plane.
- the present invention is used with various types of hard tissue replacement implants that do not have such a problem, whereby the implant material and the bone tissue of the living body cooperate three-dimensionally and three-dimensionally to form a hybrid.
- the aim is to provide a biological hard tissue-inducing scaffold material that can induce a tissue layer in a state.
- the present invention requires the metal within one month. It is intended to provide a way to complete the connection between the material and the bone.
- the present invention develops a material that can be used as a scaffold material that is effective for living hard tissue and that can be used as a bioreactor that is effective for cells other than hard tissue, which can respond to the above problems or requirements. , To offer.
- osteoblasts preferentially grow in a geometrical space composed of extremely fine fibers. Therefore, further basic research was conducted to find out that osteoblasts show extremely high affinity for titanium fibers, and that the degree of osteoblasts is less than 100 m than that of titanium fibers of 100 m or more. It has been found that it has a very high affinity for the geometrical spatial structure that is composed of a group and the extent of which extends from 100 to 40 O ⁇ tm, and that it has the property of positively attaching.
- the present invention furthermore actively develops and utilizes the properties of the fibers obtained from the above findings, and attaches the fibers to the vicinity of the metal implant so that the fibers can be used in the vicinity of the implant via the osteoblast. From the viewpoint of actively inducing cells around the implant, and as a result, it was possible to induce an integrated tissue consisting of bone tissue and metal fibers and an implant in a hybrid state. It has become clear that the desired results can be achieved.
- the connection between the bone and the metal is planar as described in (001), so that a connective tissue having a sufficient strength can be obtained. It took three to six months to complete the process, and during that time, the patient was unable to proceed to the next treatment, and the present invention provided a three-dimensional complex space made of titanium fibers. This allows the surface area of the metal to be more than 20 times that of a flat surface, even if the layer is 2 mm thick, and provides a place where cells can be activated. As is evident, coupled with the effect of promoting the activity of the cells, it has been revealed that the bone tissue can be osteointegrated in a short period of time.
- the fiber Even when cells are induced in the layer to form a hybrid with an implant, morphological stability is required when using this embedded in the human body.
- the present inventor has found that after forming titanium fibers in a disordered layer and then sintering them individually or winding them around an implant and vacuum-sintering them, the intersections and contact points between the fibers are obtained. And the contact point between the fiber and the implant on the surface of the implant is spot-welded, and even if force is applied, the force is dispersed throughout by a large number of welding points, and it has sufficient strength and is rather rigid.
- Means for fixing the metal fibers include other means such as soldering and silver brazing, but these joining operations often use a paste. These pastes may contain substances that are harmful to cells, and are not appropriate means. Considering this point, the vacuum sintering method was deliberately selected from a number of welding methods and fixing methods, and found its effectiveness. In other words, the vacuum sintering method does not use or cause harmful substances to cells. However, if there is another effective method of fixing fibers together, that is, welding means that does not adversely affect the growth of cells, tissues, or even the human body, there is no way to adopt this method. There is no problem, and it is included in the target embodiment of the present invention.
- the present inventors have precipitated hydroxyapatite or crystals containing carbonate apatite on the surface of the fibers of the titanium metal fiber layer, and thereby implanted osteoblasts. Promotes or promotes the growth of osteoblasts.Pre-attach and use various bioactive substances such as BMP (Bone Morphogenetic Protein) and various site power-ins and cell growth factor components. To induce bone cells more efficiently I found that I can do it. It has been clarified that such an operation and effect is not merely caused by the function of the treatment component but is an operation and effect brought about by the combined use with fine titanium fibers. In addition, it was revealed that the action and effect with remarkably long-lasting and sustained-release properties were exhibited and expressed.
- BMP Bis Morphogenetic Protein
- Such effects are remarkably different from those of the plate-like body.
- This difference is considered to be due to the fact that the surface area of the metal fiber layer is orders of magnitude larger than that of the plate-like body.
- the amount is evenly distributed over a wide range without bias, and in addition, the supporting area increases, thereby increasing the total carrying amount.
- the action of the physiologically active substance is also more effective and can be effected in a wide range by using extremely thin fibers of 100 m or less than the plate with a small surface area. That it can effectively induce and form a strong, integrated biological tissue
- the loading method it is possible to directly attach the BMP component, cytokine, various cell growth factors, biologically active components and factors to the metal fiber as described above.
- the characteristics of the cells themselves that is, the behavior that the cells tend to adhere to extremely fine fibers, are rather the essential characteristics of the cells themselves.
- the behavior of the cell can be controlled by appropriately adjusting the bioactive substance, the induction and activation of the cell can be controlled spatially and temporally freely.
- it may be established as one of the effective modes.
- the fibers are randomly entangled, the cells actively invade into the disorderly individual fiber gaps, and the cells and metal fibers are three-dimensionally complicated. A hybrid structure will be formed.
- the metal fiber layer described above When the metal fiber layer described above is applied to a human body or another animal, for example, if an implant metal material is implanted in bone tissue, the metal fiber layer attached to the implant constitutes As described earlier, the cells that form blood vessels and bones enter the three-dimensional gap and naturally form a hybrid tissue, which causes the phenomenon of integration between the metal material and the bone tissue. However, as a result, the anchor effect of the entire implant metal material in the bone tissue is further enhanced, and the metal material is firmly fixed in the bone tissue. In order for such an anchor effect to be rapidly formed by the invasion and fixation of cells and blood vessels, the effect obtained only by using titanium fibers of a specific thickness and aspect ratio is used. It was found to be an effect.
- titanium fibers with a diameter of less than 100 Atm in diameter many types of cells other than osteoblasts were found to be In the same way as above, it was clarified that it has the characteristic of active physiological activity and of actively attaching. Of course, these include stem cells, which are said to be all-purpose cells. In other words, it is clear from this that a titanium metal fiber layer of 100 m or less has a function as a material for cell culture growth in regenerative medical engineering and can be used as a reactor for cell culture growth. It is the one that was made.

Disclosure and supply of scaffold materials that can be used as well as reactor materials for cell culture and propagation for all cells in regenerative medical engineering, taking into account the contents of these experiments and the commonality of cells Then, it goes without saying that the 10th to 12th solutions (10) to (12) shown above have been made correspondingly.
- a fiber layer is formed using fibers, or a nonwoven fabric of fibers is formed, and living tissue is guided into the fiber gap. It is proposed in artificial blood vessels made of cloth, etc., published in various documents, etc., and in patent gazettes, there are a considerable number of them, and there is no spare time.
- the contents described in these documents do not focus on the affinity of cells for materials such as osteoblasts, but merely use fiber materials to reinforce the toughness of blood vessels. It is only intended for the natural filling of connective tissue to prevent fluid leakage from inside the blood vessel from this use.
- the present invention seeks to have a positive affinity with cells such as osteoblasts.In addition to the selection of titanium metal material, in addition to the extremely thin This is the reason that a material with a specific diameter was selected.
- the thin wire disclosed therein uses a single filament of 0.1 mm or 0.7 mm in diameter and is used by winding it around a core.
- the titanium fiber has a diameter of 100 m or less even in its thickness, and the lower limit is limited to an aspect ratio of 20 or more, but only to the extent specified by the aspect ratio. Since these short fibers are used entangled randomly, the space formed between the fibers is different from the simple secondary planar space obtained by the conventional implant method.
- the cells are induced into the fiber space, show high affinity, and as a result, the growth rate is faster than that of the conventional method (3 to 6 months), and after 4 weeks, It is extremely possible that an integrated organization is formed as early as As described above, a remarkable action and effect can be obtained.

- Implanting artificial materials in bone tissue and stably fixing them is crucial for maintaining mechanical functions in artificial organs, without which artificial heads (joints) And artificial roots are unstable and fall off sooner or later.
- the interface between the implanted prosthetic material and the bone should adhere without leaving any gaps and without intervening tissues or substances other than the bone. It is required that the bones are chemically bonded firmly and cannot be easily separated.
- the connection between the implant and the bone is referred to as "bone conduction" or "osteointegration”. This condition is established as soon as possible after the implant is implanted in the bone. Acquiring skills are being sought by many clinicians, researchers and patients.
- the present invention by adopting the configuration as described in the above-mentioned solution, increases the surface area of the scaffold, that is, the implant, and at the same time, reduces the bone as shown in FIG. 1 (b).
- the bone and the artificial object are integrated.
- Fig. 1 (a) is completely different from the two-dimensional concept of bonding the plane of the bone and the plane of the artificial implant as described above.
- the irregularly entangled fibers form a complex three-dimensional space, and a very strong hybrid layer is formed in a very short time of less than one month.
- bone is formed in the hybrid layer. Since it performs metabolism in a living state, it is physiologically stable, withstands external forces, and has the ability to restore nature, and can maintain the function of artificial organs semipermanently and stably.
- the titanium fiber layer is made of a rod-shaped body or a rod made of the same kind of titanium metal or titanium-based alloy as the fiber (the cross-sectional shape of which is typically May be a circle or an ellipse, but any shape including a square and a rectangle is possible and can be appropriately selected according to the diseased part, and there is no particular limitation.) Wrap the titanium fiber layer to an appropriate thickness and vacuum sinter to weld the fiber and fiber contact points and the fiber and rod contact points so that the fibers do not move, and the fibers do not move Firmly.
- the rod or rod and fiber layer thus formed are integrated with each other to form a strong rigid material.
- the significance is to provide a scaffold material or a bioreactor effective for osteoblasts and also for other living cells, as shown in Examples.
- the present invention promotes the proliferation of the cells themselves, and has an excellent effect of being able to realize a short-term osteointegration tissue in a short period of time. It is something that can be done.
- one of the modes is mainly a metal medical material that requires affinity for bone, particularly welding by vacuum sintering
- one of the modes is a metal medical material of the same kind. Although disclosed for medical materials, it can be used for other medical materials and is not excluded.
- the present invention allows various cell growth factors to be entangled with a hydrophilic material, the present invention can exert its power in the induction of cells, which is generally impossible with a hydrophobic resin. Therefore, it is possible to create a special functional tissue in vivo by collecting a large number of artificially intended cells.
- the present invention since various factors that inhibit cell growth can be entangled with the hydrophilic material, an environment in which cells do not adhere can be formed in the living body. Taking advantage of this characteristic, tissues that are not covered by cells for a long time are created in the living body, and it is possible to provide a good place in the living body to perform sensing with various sensors, etc. Can also be brought.
- the present invention selects a very thin titanium fiber having a constant aspect ratio as a biological hard tissue-inducing scaffold material to be used together with various implants, and entangles it randomly. In this way, bone tissue is induced inside the titanium fiber layer, thereby inducing an extremely high hybrid state between titanium and bone tissue as compared to the conventional method using the Peas method or the like. It provides medical materials with high affinity for bone tissue, and its significance is extremely large.
- the above-mentioned fiber layer is further applied with auxiliary means such as vacuum sintering with shape retention, treatment with apatite for promoting induction of osteoblasts, or treatment with various physiologically active substances.
