The common premise of synthetic implants in the restoration of diseased tissues and organs is to use inert and solid materials. Here, a porous titanium implant was fabricated for the delivery of microencapsulated bioactive cues. Control- released transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) promoted the proliferation and migration of human mesenchymal stem cells into porous implants in vitro. At 4 wk of implantation in the rabbit humerus, control- released TGF-beta 1 from porous implants significantly increased bone- to- implant contact (BIC) by 96% and bone ingrowth by 50% over placebos. Control- released 100 ng TGF-beta 1 induced equivalent BIC and bone ingrowth to adsorbed 1 mu g TGF-beta 1, suggesting that controlled release is effective at 10- fold less drug dose than adsorption. Histomorphometry, scanning electron microscopy, and microcomputed tomography showed that control- released TGF-beta 1 enhanced bone ingrowth in the implant's pores and surface. These findings suggest that solid prostheses can be transformed into porous implants to serve as drug delivery carriers, from which control- released bioactive cues augment host tissue integration.
