Impact of surface biofunctionalization strategies on key effector cells response in polyacrylamide hydrogels for bone regeneration

Despite the clinical prevalence of various bone defect repair materials, a full understanding of their influence on bone repair and regeneration remains elusive. This study focuses on poly(acrylamide) (PAAm) hydrogels, popular 2D model substrates, which have regulable mechanical properties within physiological. However, their bio-inert nature requires surface biofunctionalization to enhance cell-material interactions and facilitate the study of bone repair mechanisms. We utilized PAAm hydrogels of varying stiffness (18, 76 and 295 kPa), employed sulfosuccinimidyl-6-(4'-azido-2'-nitropheny-lamino) hexanoate (sulfo-SANPAH) and N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimidyl acrylate (EDC/NHS) as crosslinkers, and cultured macrophages, endothelial cells, and bone mesenchymal stem cells on these hydrogels. Our findings indicated that sulfo-SANPAH's crosslinking efficiency surpassed that of EDC/NHS, irrespective of pore size and stiffness. Importantly, we observed that the stiffness and surface biofunctionalization method of hydrogels significantly impacted cell adhesion and proliferation. The collagen-modified hydrogels by EDC/NHS strategy failed to support the normal biological behavior of bone mesenchymal stem cells and hindered endothelial cell spreading. In contrast, these modified hydrogels by the sulfo-SANPAH method showed good cytocompatibility with the three types of cells. This study underscores the critical role of appropriate conjugation strategies for PAAm hydrogels, providing valuable insights for hydrogel surface modification in bone repair and regeneration research.
