Abstract

Bioactive nanosilicates are emerging prominent next generation biomaterials due to their intrinsic functional properties such as advanced biochemical and biophysical cues. Recent studies show interesting dose-dependent effect of fluoride ions on the stem cells. Despite of interesting properties of fluoride ions as well as nanosilicate, there is no reported literature on the effect of fluoride-doped nanosilicates on stem cells. We have systematically evaluated the interaction of fluoride nanosilicate platelets (NS + F) with human dental follicle stem cells (hDFSCs) to probe the cytotoxicity, cellular transport (internalization) and osteogenic differentiation capabilities in comparison with already reported nanosilicate platelets without fluoride (NS − F). To understand the osteoinductive and osteoconductive properties of the nanosilicate system, nanosilicate treated hDFSCs are cultured in three different medium namely normal growth medium, osteoconductive medium, and osteoinductive medium up to 21 d. NS + F treated stem cells show higher ALP activity, osteopontin levels and significant alizarin red staining compared to NS − F treated cells. This study highlights that the particles having fluoride additives (NS + F) aid in enhancing the osteogenic differentiation capabilities of hDFSCs thus potential nanobiomaterial for periodontal bone tissue regeneration.
