The surface characteristics produced by the UV irradiation were maintained in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days. We found that titanium stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV treatment exhibited enhanced protein adsorption, cell attachment, and cytoskeleton development. Titanium stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV irradiation exhibited a lower level of oxidative stress, comparable to that of the titanium immediately after UV treatment. UV treatment combined with wet storage can be used as a means of overcoming the biological aging of titanium.</p></div></front><back><div1

UV treatment combined with wet storage can be used as a means of overcoming the biological aging of titanium.</p></abstract><custom-meta-group><custom-meta><meta-name>issue-copyright-statement</meta-name><meta-value>© The Author(s) 2017</meta-value></custom-meta></custom-meta-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="Sec1" sec-type="introduction"><title>Introduction</title><p>Titanium is widely used commercially as an orthopaedic and dental implant material for the rehabilitation of degenerated joint function and the restoration of missing teeth. It is used because titanium dioxide exhibits high biocompatibility and excellent corrosion resistance, and can also achieve osseointegration, defined as a structurally and functionally direct connection between the surrounding bone and implant surfaces without fibrous tissue formation<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref></sup>. To date, to increase the clinical success rate for high-risk patients with bone that has been compromised by aging or diseases such as diabetes, various surface modifications have been developed, combining micro- and nanoscale features to mimic the characteristics of natural bone<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR3">3</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref></sup>.</p><p>However, previous studies have reported that the time-dependent degradation of the osteoconductivity of a titanium surface, regardless of the surface topography, led to a decrease in the biomechanical strength of the bone–titanium integration, relative to a newly prepared titanium surface, because most commercially used titanium implants are provided in sterile, gas-permeable packaging, such that they can be stored for extended periods (typically up to 5 years)<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref></sup>. Att <italic>et al</italic>.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref></sup> reported that the biological aging of a titanium surface was associated with a greatly reduced ability to attain protein and osteogenic cell adhesion due to the progressive accumulation of hydrocarbons on the titanium surface under ambient conditions. As the percentage of hydrocarbons on a titanium surface increases, the surface zeta potential on the surface changes from electropositive to electronegative, while a cell-attracting terminal consisting of an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence can be blocked by the hydrocarbons<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref></sup>. Thus, this phenomenon prevents negatively charged blood protein and the extracellular matrix of the cells from attaching to the implant surface.</p><p>Recently, ultraviolet light (UV) has been shown to be capable of changing the physicochemical properties of a titanium surface from hydrophobic to hydrophilic, due to the removal of the surface hydrocarbons and/or the formation of reactive hydroxyl radical species with a reduced surface negative charge without altering the surface topography<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref></sup>.

In a clinical situation, it would not be practical for a physician to apply UV treatment to a titanium implant for 15 min to 48 h immediately before the surgery, and its sterility may be compromised at the instant it is removed from its package prior to the UV treatment being done chairside<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR18">18</xref></sup>. However, if appropriate storage strategies are applied after the UV treatment of titanium implants, the hydrophilicity of the titanium surface could be maintained at a level similar to that observed immediately after the treatment regardless of the duration of the storage, and the commercially available pretreatment of titanium implants with UV may be applicable. Recently, the storing of titanium implants in isotonic saline or distilled water immediately after their manufacture has been shown to prevent fouling by organic impurities while maintaining their hydrophilicity<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR20">20</xref></sup>.

This is because few studies have been conducted with the assumption that the biological activity of titanium after UV treatment can be maintained for a long period of time while in storage. This concept is applicable to the surfaces of all titanium implants used in the medical and dental fields, and therefore, has the potential to reduce the inconvenience to patients and clinicians.</p><p>Importantly, we found that there were no differences in the surface characteristics, surface zeta potential, protein adsorption, or cellular adhesion and oxidative stresses of MC3T3-E1 and hMSC cells on the titanium surfaces, both immediately after UV treatment and after being stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV treatment. These data provide important insights into the effects of the wet storage method on titanium implants for clinical applications.</p><p>In this study, the UV treatment did not alter the average surface roughness when analysed immediately after treatment. Nevertheless, this method increased the hydrophilicity of the titanium disc surface due to changes in the surface chemistry using two possible mechanisms: photocatalysis by UV-A (315–380 nm) and photolysis by UV-C (100–280 nm)<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR32">32</xref></sup>. Previous studies revealed that UV-A, which corresponds to a wavelength of approximately 365 nm, can induce TiO<sub>2</sub> photocatalytic activity and excite an electron from the valence band to the conduction band through the application of 3.2 eV. These electron-hole pairs and electrons can lead to the generation of superoxides and ROS, such as the hydroxyl radical. An increased ROS number would induce a more hydrophilic state<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR33">33</xref></sup>. UV-C at a peak wavelength of 250 nm has also been used to improve the wettability of materials via photolysis, that is, the direct decomposition of hydrocarbon contamination<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">34</xref></sup>. Reducing the hydrocarbon level through the application of UV-C light is strongly associated with increased protein adsorption and cell attachment<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref></sup>. Although this study has not been able to clearly identify which wavelengths have the greater impact on the reduction of the carbon percentage of the titanium surface, it is assumed that that UV-A makes the greater contribution because the UV–vis absorption spectra for titanium surfaces mainly exhibit the absorption peaks at around 360 nm (339–374 nm), implying that the titanium may respond to a wavelength range of UV-A for the initiation of photocatalysis, for degrading hydrocarbons<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR13">13</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref></sup>.</p><p>To date, most previous studies investigating the effects of UV on hydrophilicity have not considered the shelf life or the consequent rehydrophobisation as biological aging of the titanium surface after UV treatment, which occurs rapidly under ambient storage conditions<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR37">37</xref></sup>. In this study, the hydrophilicity of the UV-dry titanium surface under sterile humidified conditions without dH<sub>2</sub>O fell to almost half that of the untreated titanium surface, 28 days after UV treatment. As the peak corresponding to the carbon and the atomic percentage of carbon increased, the protein adsorption and cell adhesion capacity decreased over time because this hydrophobic, hydrocarbon-contaminated surface can change the surface zeta potential to an electronegative charge in the same was as serum albumin molecules and extracellular matrix proteins, while also causing the entrapment of air bubbles and blocking the RGD terminal, thus interfering with the interaction between the proteins and cells<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">38</xref></sup>.</p><p>Therefore, in this study, using commercially available UV-pretreated titanium implants, we focused on the UV treatment and water-based storage method as solutions for preventing rehydrophobisation because of contamination with hydrocarbon, while maintaining the surface hydrophilicity of titanium implants during long-term shelf storage. Wennerberg <italic>et al</italic>.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref></sup> reported that, after sand-blasting and acid etching, the hydrophilicity of the surface of titanium could be preserved by storage in a NaCl solution, while also preventing excessive chemical contamination from the atmosphere and prompting the reorganization of the outermost titanium oxide layer into a well-defined nanostructure. However, this has also been reported for the surfaces of titanium that has simply been stored in isotonic saline for an extended period without the exclusion of the influence of heterogeneous ions<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR39">39</xref></sup>. In this study, the UV-wet titanium surface, stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV treatment, was found to exhibit hydrophilicity and biological activity such as protein adhesion, osteoblastic and mesenchymal cell adhesion, and osteoblastic cellular cytoskeleton development that is comparable to those observed immediately after UV treatment. Additionally, the ROS signal intensity of the attached hMSC cells of the UV-wet titanium, 28 days after UV treatment, was found to be comparable to that of titanium immediately after UV treatment, but lower than that of UV-dry titanium, 28 days after treatment.</p><p>Oxidative stress induced by ROS overproduction hinders bone healing at the interface between the bone and implant because it adversely affects the cell growth on the implant surface but large numbers of ROS would inevitably be generated when the cells are in contact with a biomaterial surface such as titanium, or as a result of complex reactions during the surgical procedure<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR40">40</xref>–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR43">43</xref></sup>. To decrease the intracellular ROS production, although the administration of pharmaceutical antioxidants can be considered, conventional methods of drug administration to reduce oxidative stress-related defences face many challenges, such as the targeting of the bone repair cells and the cytotoxicity of antioxidant. Recently, Ueno <italic>et al</italic>.<sup><xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR17">17</xref></sup> reported that intracellular ROS production can be limited by the UV treatment of titanium, while the reduced intracellular ROS level can contribute to improving the cytoskeleton development of osteoblast cells. Similarly, in this study, MC3TC-E1 cells on the UV-dry titanium, 28 days after UV treatment, exhibited a significantly reduced cytoskeleton development and degree of cell spread than other groups due to the biological aging of the titanium with contamination by hydrocarbons and, as expected, hMSC cells on the UV-dry titanium, 28 days after UV treatment, exhibited a significantly higher intracellular ROS signal intensity than the other groups. In contrast, the UV-wet titanium, stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O after UV treatment, maintained a favourable environment for the hMSC cells while producing almost the same titanium ROS signal immediately after treatment, indicating that this storage method may contribute to the promotion of bone-implant osseointegration due to the maintenance of the cellular oxidative stress, compared to immediately after the UV treatment.</p><p>Several limitations of this study should be considered when interpreting these data. In this study, because the titanium samples were flat discs, 12 mm in diameter, the results of this study may not be applicable to actual clinical settings, because the size of the titanium sample was much smaller than complex prosthetic orthopaedic implants, particularly hip or knee joint prostheses. Additionally, <italic>in vitro</italic> findings do not always translate to <italic>in vivo</italic> experience. We used a single-protein solution (BSA) to evaluate the adhesion of the protein to the titanium surface and therefore we did not account for competition between various proteins or human plasma. However, to evaluate any changes in the biological activity of titanium according to the presence or absence of wet storage immediately after UV treatment and storage, a study performed <italic>in vitro</italic> is a prerequisite. Based on the results of this study, a randomised controlled trial of exposure <italic>in vivo</italic> with compromised patients will be necessary to confirm whether these results can be applied to actual clinical situations in the medical and dental fields to ensure the long-term survival of the titanium implants.</p><p>Despite the limitations of this study, we found that there were no differences in surface characteristics, surface zeta potential, protein adsorption, or cellular adhesion and oxidative stresses of the MC3T3-E1 and hMSC cells, between the titanium surfaces immediately after UV treatment and those stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV treatment. The UV-instigated photocatalytic activity removed the surface hydrocarbons and altered the surface charge from negatively charged and hydrophobic (bioinert) to relatively positively charged and hydrophilic (bioactive); the surface characteristics produced by the UV treatment were relatively well maintained by the wet storage method for 28 days. Consequently, titanium stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV treatment enhanced blood protein adsorption, osteoblastic and mesenchymal cell attachment, and cytoskeleton development. Additionally, titanium stored in dH<sub>2</sub>O for 28 days after UV treatment created a favourable environment for mesenchymal cells by having a low oxidative stress due to the low ROS production, the level being like that of titanium immediately after UV treatment.</p><p>Therefore, UV treatment combined with a wet storage method could be one means of overcoming the biological aging of titanium, and this storage method can be applied to the practical application of UV-pretreated titanium implants. Future <italic>in vivo</italic> studies are necessary to confirm whether these results can be applied to actual clinical situations in the medical and dental fields.</p></sec></body><back><fn-group><fn><p><bold>Publisher's note:</bold> Springer Nature remains neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations.</p></fn></fn-group><notes notes-type="author-contribution"><title>Author Contributions</title><p>S.H.C., J.H.L., K.M.K., and C.J.H. conceived and designed the experiments.
