Mechanisms of Mg-enriched materials promoting vascularized osteogenesis.

Materials Characteristic Experiments Animal Model Angiogenesis Mechanism Author/Year
Mg nail Purity of 99.99% in vivo Critical size midshaft femur bone defect (5 mm in length) model up-regulated the expression of CGRP, CGRP promoted the phosphorylation of FAK and elevated the expression of VEGFA Ye, L./2021 [57]
High-purity Mg pin Length of 5 mm and diameter of 1 mm in vivo rat distraction osteogenesis model via the regulation of VHL/HIF-1α/VEGF signaling Hamushan, M./2020 [60]
MCPC Contain CPC powder, MPC powder and liquid phase (deionized water) in vitro - Regulation of HUVEC angiogenesis in vitro by immune regulation of macrophages Wang, M./2016 [97]
microgel composite hydrogels BMP-2/Mg2+ codelivery platform in vivo critical cranial defect mode increase cellular bioenergetic levels to fuel osteogenesis, and thereby markedly promoted the osteoinductivity of BMP-2. Lin, S./2022 [128]

Note: CGRP: calcitonin gene-related peptide; FAK: Focal Adhesion Kinase; VEGF: vascular endothelial growth factor; VHL: Von Hippel–Lindau; HIF-1α: hypoxia-inducible factor-1α; CPC: calcium phosphate cements; MPC: magnesium phosphate cement; HUVEC: human umbilical vein endothelial cell; BMP-2: bone morphogenetic protein-2.
