Abstract
Next generation dental/orthopedic biomaterials must be designed to enhance and support osteoblast adhesion. The osteoblasts use different ways to adhere, that is, integrin‐ and proteoglycan‐mediated mechanisms. The present study reports on the synthesis and osteoblast‐adhesive properties of peptides carrying RGD motifs and of sequences mapped on human vitronectin. Our data suggest that osteoblast adhesion on polystyrene plates modified with a linear peptide, in which the GRGDSP sequence is repeated four times, was significantly higher when compared to the adhesion obtained using branched peptides, interestingly containing the same motif. Osteoblast adhesion assays on acellular bone matrix using this active peptide gave very promising results. We also demonstrated that a novel peptide, carrying the X‐B‐B‐B‐X‐B‐B‐X motif (where B is a basic amino acid and X is a nonbasic residue), promotes proteoglycan‐mediated osteoblast adhesion more efficiently with respect to the KRSR sequence that was recently proposed as heparan‐sulfate binding peptide. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
