▎ 摘 要
Titanium (Ti) is one of the representative biocompatible metallic materials which has been widely exploited for various implants and bone replacements. Here, commercially pure Ti (CP Ti) was surface-modified with reduced graphene oxide (RGO) for accelerated bone regeneration and osseointegration. Nanoscale RGO coating on CP Ti was clearly confirmed by SEM, AFM, EDS, XPS, HR-TEM and EELS. In addition, pre-osteoblast cells cultured on RGO-CP Ti showed higher cell viability and cell attachment than those on CP Ti. After confirmation of the drug loading capability of RGO-CP Ti, osteogenic dexamethasone loaded RGO-CP Ti (Dex/RGO-CP Ti) was implanted on calvarial bone defects in rats. Synchrotron X-ray imaging successfully visualized more effective bone regeneration on Dex/RGO-CP Ti than CP Ti and RGO-CP Ti after 8 weeks.
