Abstract

The clinical treatment of bone tumors usually brings about residual tumor cells and large bone defects after tumor removal surgery. To solve this problem, it is imperative to develop a novel implant with bi-functions for eliminating the residual tumor cells and repairing bone defects. In this study, hydrogenated black TiO2 (H-TiO2) coating with hierarchical micro/nano-topographies is fabricated by induction suspension plasma spraying (ISPS). The fabricated H-TiO2 coating possessed excellent and controllable photothermal effect in inhibiting the tumor growth under 808 nm NIR laser irradiation in vitro and in vivo. The hierarchical hybrid micro/nano-structured surface and Ti-OH groups improved the adhesion, proliferation, differentiation and osteogenic gene expressions of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs). These results demonstrate that the H-TiO2 coating may be a promising implant material for the treatment of bone tumors and bone regeneration.
