AB Certain biomaterials are capable of inducing the secretion of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) from cells exposed to their biochemical influence, which plays a vital role in stimulating angiogenesis. Looking for this capacity, in this study three porous glasses were synthesized and characterized. Glass compositions (in mol-%) were: 60SiO2–(36-2x)CaO–4P2O5–xCuO–xSrO with x=0, 1 or 2.5, respectively, for B60, CuSr-1 or CuSr-2.5 glasses. Cu2+ and Sr2+ ions were added because of the reported biological capabilities of Cu2+ as angiogenic stimulator and Sr2+ as osteogenic stimulator. The objective of this study was to determine the concentration of the glass particles that, being out of the cytotoxic range, could increase VEGF secretion. The viability of cultivated bone marrow stromal cells (ST-2) was assessed. The samples were examined with light microscopy (LM) after the histochemical staining for haematoxylin and eosin (HE). The biological activity of glasses was evaluated in terms of the influence of the Cu2+ and Sr2+ ions on the cells. The dissolution products of CuSr-1 and CuSr-2.5 produced the highest secretion of VEGF from ST-2 cells after 48h of incubation. The combination of Cu2+ and Sr2+ lays the foundation for engineering a bioactive glass than can lead to vascularized, functional bone tissue when used in bone regeneration applications.
