Biomedicines 2024; 12:874. [PMID: 38672228 PMCID: PMC11048676 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12040874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Leukocyte and Platelet-Rich Fibrin (L-PRF) is part of the second generation of platelet-concentrates. L-PRF derived from nonsmokers has been used in surgical procedures, with its beneficial effects in wound healing being proven to stimulate biological activities such as cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and differentiation. Cigarette smoking exerts detrimental effects on tissue healing and is associated with post-surgical complications; however, evidence about the biological effects of L-PRF derived from smokers is limited. This study evaluated the impact of L-PRF secretome (LPRFS) derived from smokers and nonsmokers on angiogenesis and osteoblast differentiation. LPRFS was obtained by submerging L-PRF membranes derived from smokers or nonsmokers in culture media and was used to treat endothelial cells (HUVEC) or SaOs-2 cells. Angiogenesis was evaluated by tubule formation assay, while osteoblast differentiation was observed by alkaline phosphatase and osterix protein levels, as well as in vitro mineralization. LPRFS treatments increased angiogenesis, alkaline phosphatase, and osterix levels. Treatment with 50% of LPRFS derived from smokers and nonsmokers in the presence of osteogenic factors stimulates in vitro mineralization significantly. Nevertheless, differences between LPRFS derived from smokers and nonsmokers were not found. Both LPRFS stimulated angiogenesis and osteoblast differentiation in vitro; however, clinical studies are required to determine the beneficial effect of LPRFS in smokers.

Qi L, Fang X, Yan J, Pan C, Ge W, Wang J, Shen SG, Lin K, Zhang L. Magnesium-containing bioceramics stimulate exosomal miR-196a-5p secretion to promote senescent osteogenesis through targeting Hoxa7/MAPK signaling axis. Bioact Mater 2024; 33:14-29. [PMID: 38024235 PMCID: PMC10661166 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.10.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Stem cell senescence is characterized by progressive functional dysfunction and secretory phenotypic changes including decreased proliferation, dysfunction of osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation, increased secretion of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which bring difficulties for bone repair. Rescuing or delaying senescence of aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (O-BMSCs) was considered as effective strategy for bone regeneration in aging microenvironment. Magnesium (Mg) ion released from bioceramics was reported to facilitate bone regeneration via enhancing osteogenesis and alleviating senescence. In this study, Akermanite biocreamics (Akt) containing Mg ion as a model was demonstrated to promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis effects of O-BMSCs by activating the MAPK signaling pathway in vitro. Moreover, the enhanced osteogenesis effects might be attributed to enhanced Mg-containing Akt-mediated exosomal miR-196a-5p cargo targeting Hoxa7 and activation of MAPK signaling pathway. Furthermore, the in vivo study confirmed that 3D-printed porous Mg-containing Akt scaffolds effectively increased bone regeneration in cranial defects of aged rats. The current results indicated that the exosomal-miR-196a-5p/Hoxa7/MAPK signaling axis might be the potential mechanism underlying Akt-mediated osteogenesis. The exosome-meditaed therapy stimulated by the released Mg ion contained in Akt biocreamics or other biomaterials might serve as a candidate strategy for bone repair in aged individuals.

Abstract
Hydrogels are 3D networks swollen with water. They are biocompatible, strong, and moldable and are emerging as a promising biomedical material for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering to deliver therapeutic genes. The excellent natural extracellular matrix simulation properties of hydrogels enable them to be co-cultured with cells or enhance the expression of viral or non-viral vectors. Its biocompatibility, high strength, and degradation performance also make the action process of carriers in tissues more ideal, making it an ideal biomedical material. It has been shown that hydrogel-based gene delivery technologies have the potential to play therapy-relevant roles in organs such as bone, cartilage, nerve, skin, reproductive organs, and liver in animal experiments and preclinical trials. This paper reviews recent articles on hydrogels in gene delivery and explains the manufacture, applications, developmental timeline, limitations, and future directions of hydrogel-based gene delivery techniques.

Abstract
Temporally and spatially controlled growth factor release from a polycaprolactone fiber mat, which also provides a matrix for directional cell colonization and infiltration, could be a promising regenerative approach for degenerated tendon-bone junctions. For this purpose, polycaprolactone fiber mats were coated with tailored chitosan-based nanogels to bind and release the growth factors bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and transforming growth factor-β3 (TGF-β3), respectively. In this work we provide meaningful in vitro data for the understanding of the drug delivery performance and sterilizability of novel implant prototypes in order to lay the foundation for in vivo testing. ELISA-based in vitro release studies were used to investigate the spatial and temporal control of release, as well as the influence of radiation sterilization on protein activity and release behavior. Layer-by-layer coatings based on BMP-2-containing chitosan tripolyphosphate nanogel particles and negatively charged alginate showed a good sustainment of BMP-2 release from chemically modified polycaprolactone fiber mats. Release control improved with increasing layer numbers. The approach of controlling the release via a barrier of cross-linked chitosan azide proved less promising. By using a simple, partial immersion-based dip-coating process, it was possible to apply opposing gradients of the growth factors BMP-2 and TGF-β3. Final radiation sterilization of the growth factor-loaded implant prototypes resulted in a radiation dose-correlated degradation of the growth factors, which could be prevented by lyophilization into protective matrices. For the manufacture of sterile implants, the growth factor loading step must probably be carried out under aseptic conditions. The layer-by-layer coated implant prototypes provided sustained release from opposing gradients of the growth factors BMP-2 and TGF-β3 and thus represent a promising approach for the restoration of tendon-bone defects.

Abstract
This review aims to describe the most recent achievements and provide an insight into cartilage engineering and strategies to restore the cartilage defects. Here, we discuss cell types, biomaterials, and biochemical factors applied to form cartilage tissue equivalents and update the status of fabrication techniques, which are used at all stages of engineering the cartilage. The actualized concept to improve the cartilage tissue restoration is based on applying personalized products fabricated using a full cycle platform: a bioprinter, a bioink consisted of ECM-embedded autologous cell aggregates, and a bioreactor. Moreover, in situ platforms can help to skip some steps and enable adjusting the newly formed tissue in the place during the operation. Only some achievements described have passed first stages of clinical translation; nevertheless, the number of their preclinical and clinical trials is expected to grow in the nearest future.

Abstract
Repairing articular osteochondral defects present considerable challenges in self-repair due to the complex tissue structure and low proliferation of chondrocytes. Conventional clinical therapies have not shown significant efficacy, including microfracture, autologous/allograft osteochondral transplantation, and cell-based techniques. Therefore, tissue engineering has been widely explored in repairing osteochondral defects by leveraging the natural regenerative potential of biomaterials to control cell functions. However, osteochondral tissue is a gradient structure with a smooth transition from the cartilage to subchondral bone, involving changes in chondrocyte morphologies and phenotypes, extracellular matrix components, collagen type and orientation, and cytokines. Bioinspired scaffolds have been developed by simulating gradient characteristics in heterogeneous tissues, such as the pores, components, and osteochondrogenesis-inducing factors, to satisfy the anisotropic features of osteochondral matrices. Bioinspired gradient scaffolds repair osteochondral defects by altering the microenvironments of cell growth to induce osteochondrogenesis and promote the formation of osteochondral interfaces compared with homogeneous scaffolds. This review outlines the meaningful strategies for repairing osteochondral defects by tissue engineering based on gradient scaffolds and predicts the pros and cons of prospective translation into clinical practice.

Abstract
Osteochondral (OC) repair is an extremely challenging topic due to the complex biphasic structure and poor intrinsic regenerative capability of natural osteochondral tissue. In contrast to the current surgical approaches which yield only short-term relief of symptoms, tissue engineering strategy has been shown more promising outcomes in treating OC defects since its emergence in the 1990s. In particular, the use of multizonal scaffolds (MZSs) that mimic the gradient transitions, from cartilage surface to the subchondral bone with either continuous or discontinuous compositions, structures, and properties of natural OC tissue, has been gaining momentum in recent years. Scrutinizing the latest developments in the field, this review offers a comprehensive summary of recent advances, current hurdles, and future perspectives of OC repair, particularly the use of MZSs including bilayered, trilayered, multilayered, and gradient scaffolds, by bringing together onerous demands of architecture designs, material selections, manufacturing techniques as well as the choices of growth factors and cells, each of which possesses its unique challenges and opportunities.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To explore the physicochemical characteristics and biocompatibility of calcium peroxide (CPO)-loaded polycaprolactone (PCL) microparticle. METHODS The CPO/PCL particles were prepared. The morphology and elemental distribution of CPO, PCL and CPO/PCL particles were observed with scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy, respectively. Rat adipose mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and treated with different concentrations (0.10%, 0.25%, 0.50%, 1.00%) of CPO or CPO/PCL particles. The mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in normal media or osteogenic differentiation media under the hypoxia/normoxia conditions, and the amount of released O2 and H2O2 after CPO/PCL treatment were detected. The gene expressions of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Runt-associated transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin (OCN) were detected by realtime RT-PCR. SD rats were subcutaneously injected with 1.00% CPO/PCL particles and the pathological changes and infiltration of immune cells were observed with HE staining and immunohistochemistry at day 7 and day 14 after injection. RESULTS Scanning electron microscope showed that CPO particles had a polygonal structure, PCL particles were in a small spherical plastic particle state, and CPO/PCL particles had a block-like crystal structure. Energy dispersive spectroscopy revealed that PCL particles showed no calcium mapping, while CPO/PCL particles showed obvious and uniform calcium mapping. The concentrations of O2 and H2O2 released by CPO/PCL particles were lower than those of CPO group, and the oxygen release time was longer. The expressions of Alp, Runx2, Ocn and Opn increased with the higher content of CPO/PCL particles under hypoxia in osteogenic differentiation culture and normal culture, and the induction was more obvious under osteogenic differentiation conditions (all P<0.05). HE staining results showed that the muscle tissue fibers around the injection site were scattered and disorderly distributed, with varying sizes and thicknesses at day 7 after particle injection. Significant vascular congestion, widened gaps, mild interstitial congestion, local edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, and large area vacuolization were observed in some tissues of rats. At day 14 after microparticle injection, the muscle tissue around the injection site and the tissue fibers at the microparticle implantation site were arranged neatly, and the gap size was not thickened, the vascular congestion, local inflammatory cell infiltration, and vacuolization were significantly improved compared with those at day 7. The immunohistochemical staining results showed that the expressions of CD3 and CD68 positive cells significantly increased in the surrounding muscle tissue, and were densely distributed in a large area at day 7 after particle injection. At day 14 of microparticle injection, the numbers of CD3 and CD68 positive cells in peripheral muscle tissue and tissue at the site of particle implantation were lower than those at day 7 (all P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS CPO/PCL particles have good oxygen release activity, low damage to tissue, and excellent biocompatibility.

Abstract
Bone healing is a complex cascade involving precisely coordinated spatiotemporal presentation of multiple growth factors (GFs), including osteogenic and angiogenic GFs, and each stage of bone healing requires varying types and content of GFs. In this study, we fabricated a composite nanocoating with tunable vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) that was coated on the surface of a polydopamine (PDA)-decorated tertiary calcium phosphate (TCP) scaffold using VEGF-loaded chitosan/bovine serum albumin nanoparticles (CS/BSA-NPs) and BMP-2-loaded poly-L-lysine/oxidized alginate nanoparticles (PLL/OALG-NPs). It was found that VEGF could be efficiently released to promote vascularization in early bone repair stages due to the rapid biodegradation of CS/BSA-NPs, while bone formation can be promoted by a sustained release of BMP-2 from the slowly degrading PLL/OALG-NPs. The composite coating and TCP scaffold can be conjugated due to the excellent adhesive property of PDA. The composite coating can achieve the rapid release of VEGF and sustained release of BMP-2, which can activate GFs for accelerating bone healing.

Abstract
Healing of large calvarial bone defects remains challenge but may be improved by stimulating bone regeneration of implanted cells. The aim of this study is to specially co-activate transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) genes expressions in pre-osteoblast MC3T3-E1 cells through the non-viral CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) system to promote osteogenesis. A cationic copolymer carrying nucleus localizing peptides and proton sponge groups dimethyl-histidine was synthesized to deliver CRISPRa system into MC3T3-E1 cells with high cellular uptake, lysosomal escape, and nuclear translocation, which activated VEGF-A and TGF-β1 genes expressions and thereby additively or synergistically induced several osteogenic genes expressions. A tunable dual-crosslinked hydrogel was developed to implant the above engineered cells into mice calvaria bone defect site to promote bone healing in vivo. The combination of multi-genes activation through non-viral CRISPRa system and tunable dual-crosslinked hydrogel provides a versatile strategy for promoting bone healing with synergistic effect.

The role of the immune microenvironment in bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration: from mechanism to therapeutic opportunity. Mil Med Res 2022; 9:65. [PMID: 36401295 PMCID: PMC9675067 DOI: 10.1186/s40779-022-00426-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 15.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration is a complex spatiotemporal process recruiting a variety of cell types, whose activity and interplay must be precisely mediated for effective healing post-injury. Although extensive strides have been made in the understanding of the immune microenvironment processes governing bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration, effective clinical translation of these mechanisms remains a challenge. Regulation of the immune microenvironment is increasingly becoming a favorable target for bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration; therefore, an in-depth understanding of the communication between immune cells and functional tissue cells would be valuable. Herein, we review the regulatory role of the immune microenvironment in the promotion and maintenance of stem cell states in the context of bone, cartilage, and soft tissue repair and regeneration. We discuss the roles of various immune cell subsets in bone, cartilage, and soft tissue repair and regeneration processes and introduce novel strategies, for example, biomaterial-targeting of immune cell activity, aimed at regulating healing. Understanding the mechanisms of the crosstalk between the immune microenvironment and regeneration pathways may shed light on new therapeutic opportunities for enhancing bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration through regulation of the immune microenvironment.

The synergistic effect of physicochemical in vitro microenvironment modulators in human bone marrow stem cell cultures. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 144:213196.

Abstract
Modern bioengineering utilises biomimetic cell culture approaches to control cell fate during in vitro expansion. In this spirit, herein we assessed the influence of bidirectional surface topography, substrate rigidity, collagen type I coating and macromolecular crowding (MMC) in human bone marrow stem cell cultures. In the absence of MMC, surface topography was a strong modulator of cell morphology. MMC significantly increased extracellular matrix deposition, albeit in a globular manner, independently of the surface topography, substrate rigidity and collagen type I coating. Collagen type I coating significantly increased cell metabolic activity and none of the assessed parameters affected cell viability. At day 14, in the absence of MMC, none of the assessed genes was affected by surface topography, substrate rigidity and collagen type I coating, whilst in the presence of MMC, in general, collagen type I α1 chain, tenascin C, osteonectin, bone sialoprotein, aggrecan, cartilage oligomeric protein and runt-related transcription factor were downregulated. Interestingly, in the presence of the MMC, the 1000 kPa grooved substrate without collagen type I coating upregulated aggrecan, cartilage oligomeric protein, scleraxis homolog A, tenomodulin and thrombospondin 4, indicative of tenogenic differentiation. This study further supports the notion for multifactorial bioengineering to control cell fate in culture.

Could BMPs Therapy Be Improved if BMPs Were Used in Composition Acting during Bone Formation in Endochondral Ossification? Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810327.

Abstract
The discovery of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) inspired hope for the successful treatment of bone disorders, but side effects worsening the clinical effects were eventually observed. BMPs exert a synergistic effect, stimulating osteogenesis; however, predicting the best composition of growth factors for use in humans is difficult. Chondrocytes present within the growth plate produce growth factors stored in calcified cartilage adhering to metaphysis. These factors stimulate initial bone formation in metaphysis. We have previously determined the growth factors present in bovine calcified cartilage and produced by rat epiphyseal chondrocytes. The results suggest that growth factors stimulating physiological ossification are species dependent. The collection of human calcified cartilage for growth factors determination does not appear feasible, but chondrocytes for mRNA determination could be obtained. Their collection from young recipients, in view of the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges Recommendation, would be ethical. The authors of this review do not have facilities to conduct such a study and can only appeal to competent institutions to undertake the task. The results could help to formulate a better recipe for the stimulation of bone formation and improve clinical results.

Abstract
Cartilage defects trouble millions of patients worldwide and their repair via conventional treatment is difficult. Excitingly, tissue engineering technology provides a promising strategy for efficient cartilage regeneration with structural regeneration and functional reconstruction. Seed cells, as biological prerequisites for cartilage regeneration, determine the quality of regenerated cartilage. The proliferation, differentiation and chondrogenesis of seed cells are greatly affected by their type, origin and generation. Thus, a systematic description of the characteristics of seed cells is necessary. This article reviews in detail the cellular characteristics, research progress, clinical translation challenges and future research directions of seed cells while providing guidelines for selecting appropriate seed cells for cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
Due to the abundance of bioactive components, surficial decoration with cell-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) is a promising strategy to improve the biological functionality of the tissue engineering scaffolds. However, decellularization is necessary to remove antigenic components in the ECM that may trigger adverse immune response. Freeze-thaw (FT) cycles and treatment with Triton X-100/ammonium hydroxide (TN) are two commonly used decellularization methods for ECM, but their effects on both growth factor retention and antigen removal are still controversial. The objectives of this study are to compare the preservation of ECM texture and beneficial ingredients and the removal of cellular antigens by these two methods. First, the constructs combined bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived ECM and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) membrane are prepared and decellularized using FT and TN treatments. Moreover, the effects of decellularization on the ultrastructure and the composition of ECM-decorated PLGA membrane are compared by scanning electron microscope observation and protein quantification. Furthermore, the ECM deposited on PLGA is stripped off and then implanted subcutaneously in rats, and the host macrophage and local lymphocyte responses were investigated. Finally, ECM-decorated porous PLGA scaffolds are implanted into rat calvarial defects, and the new bone formation is evaluated. Our results showed that both methods effectively removed DNA. TN treatment partially retained collagen, glycosaminoglycan, bone morphogenetic protein-2, and vascular endothelial growth factor, and better preserved structural integrity than FT treatment. ECM implants decellularized by both methods induced a mild host response after subcutaneous implantation. Although the total content of residual DNA in the two ECMs digested by the DNA enzyme seemed to be similar and very low, the interfaces between implanted materials and natural tissues in the TN group recruited lower numbers of CD68+ macrophages, CD68+CD86+ (M1) macrophages, and CD4+ T lymphocytes than that in FT group, implying that there exist other ECM antigens to influence immune response besides DNA. Furthermore, ECM-decorated scaffolds decellularized by TN treatment induced greater bone formation than that of bare scaffolds in vivo, demonstrating the effective retention of ECM bioactive components after decellularization. This study showed that TN treatment was a more effective and safer decellularization method than FT cycles. Impact statement Decellularization is a prerequisite for extracellular matrix (ECM) application, but there is still no standard for its selection. This study demonstrated that detergent treatment was more effective than freeze-thaw (FT) cycles in removing ECM antigens besides DNA, and the prepared ECM elicited a milder allogenic immune response, which ensured the safety of ECM. Moreover, detergent better preserved the ECM integrity than FT cycles, and effectively retained growth factors, and the decellularized ECM-decorated scaffolds significantly promoted bone repair, which ensured the effectiveness of ECM. This study provides the theoretical and experimental bases for the decellularization strategy of ECM-modified tissue engineering scaffolds.

Abstract
Thanks to stem cells' capability to differentiate into multiple cell types, damaged human tissues and organs can be rapidly well-repaired. Therefore, their applicability in the emerging field of regenerative medicine can be further expanded, serving as a promising multifunctional tool for tissue engineering, treatments for various diseases, and other biomedical applications as well. However, the differentiation and survival of the stem cells into specific lineages is crucial to be exclusively controlled. In this frame, growth factors and chemical agents are utilized to stimulate and adjust proliferation and differentiation of the stem cells, although challenges related with degradation, side effects, and high cost should be overcome. Owing to their unique physicochemical and biological properties, graphene-based nanomaterials have been widely used as scaffolds to manipulate stem cell growth and differentiation potential. Herein, we provide the most recent research progress in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) growth, differentiation and function utilizing graphene derivatives as extracellular scaffolds. The interaction of graphene derivatives in human and rat MSCs has been also evaluated. Graphene-based nanomaterials are biocompatible, exhibiting a great potential applicability in stem-cell-mediated regenerative medicine as they may promote the behaviour control of the stem cells. Finally, the challenges, prospects and future trends in the field are discussed.

Abstract
In the current study, a novel nanocomposite hydrogel scaffold comprising of natural-based gelatin and synthetic-based (poly D, L (lactide-co-glycolide) -b- poly (ethylene glycol)-b- poly D, L (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA-PEG-PLGA) triblock copolymer was developed and loaded with transforming growth factor- β1 (TGF-β1). Synthesized scaffolds' chemical structure was examined by 1H NMR and ATR-FTIR. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed particle size and morphology of the prepared nanoparticles as well as the scaffolds. The morphology analysis revealed a porous interconnected structure throughout the scaffold with a pore size dimension of about 202.05 µm. The swelling behavior, in vitro degradation, mechanical properties, density, and porosity were also evaluated. Phalloidin/DAPI staining was utilized for confirming the extended cytoskeleton of the chondrocytes. Alcian blue staining was conducted to determine cartilaginous matrix sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) synthesis. Eventually, over a period of 21 days, a real-time RT-PCR analysis was applied to measure the mRNA expression of chondrogenic marker genes, type-II collagen, SOX 9, and aggrecan, in hDPSCs cultured for up to 21 days to study the influence of gelatin/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 hydrogels on hDPSCs. The findings of the cell-encapsulating hydrogels analysis suggested that the adhesion, viability, and chondrogenic differentiation of hDPSCs improved by gelatin/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 nanocomposite hydrogels. These data supported the conclusion that gelatin/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 nanocomposite hydrogels render the features that allow thein vitrofunctionality of encapsulated hDPSCs and hence can contribute the basis for new effective strategies for the treatment of cartilage injuries.

Abstract
The insufficient osteogenesis of magnesium phosphate cements (MPCs) limits its further application. It is significant to develop a bioactive MPC with osteogenic properties. In this work, MPCs were reinforced by zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs). The composition, microstructure, setting time, compressive strength and degradation of ZnO-NPs/MPCs (ZNMPCs) were evaluated. The results showed that the setting times of MPCs were prolonged from 8.2 to 25.3 min (5.0ZNMPC). The exothermic temperatures were reduced from 45.8 ± 0.4℃ (MPCs) to 39.3 ± 0.5℃ (1.0ZNMPC). The compressive strength of ZNMPC composite cement with 1 wt. % ZnO-NPs (1.0ZNMPC) was the highest (42.9 MPa) among all the composite cements. Furthermore, the ZNMPCs were cultured with mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mBMSCs). The results yielded that the ZNMPCs exhibited good cytocompatibility with enhanced differentiation, proliferation, and mineralization on mBMSCs, and it also pronouncedly elevated the expressions of genes and proteins involving osteogenesis. These findings suggested that ZNMPCs could drive the differentiation toward osteogenesis and mineralization of mBMSCs, providing a simple way to the MPC with enhanced osteogenesis for further orthopedic applications.

Bone morphogenetic protein 9 enhances osteogenic and angiogenic responses of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells cocultured with umbilical vein endothelial cells through the PI3K/AKT/m-TOR signaling pathway. Aging (Albany NY) 2021; 13:24829-24849.

Abstract
Background: Neovascularization plays an essential part in bone fracture and defect healing, constructing tissue engineered bone that targets bone regeneration. Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) is a regular indicator that potentiates osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation of MSCs. Objectives: To investigate the effects of BMP9 on osteogenesis and angiogenesis of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) cocultured with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and determine the possible underlying molecular mechanism. Results: The isolated hAMSCs expressed surface markers of MSCs. hAMSCs cocultured with HUVECs enhance osteogenic differentiation and upregulate the expression of angiogenic factors. BMP9 not only potentiates angiogenic signaling of hAMSCs cocultured with HUVECs also increases ectopic bone formation and subcutaneous vessel invasion. Mechanically, the coupling effect between osteogenesis and angiogenesis induced by BMP9 was activated by the BMP/Smad and PI3K/AKT/m-TOR signaling pathways. Conclusions: BMP9-enhanced osteoblastic and angiogenic differentiation in cocultivation with hAMSCs and HUVECs in vitro and in vivo also provide a chance to harness the BMP9-regulated coordinated effect between osteogenic and angiogenic pathways through BMP/Smad and PI3K/AKT/m-TOR signalings. Materials and Methods: The ALP and Alizarin Red S staining assay to determine the effects of osteoblastic differentiation. RT-qPCR and western blot was measured the expression of angiogenesis-related factors. Ectopic bone formation was established and retrieved bony masses were subjected to histochemical staining. The angiogenesis ability and vessel invasion were subsequently determined by immunofluorescence staining. Molecular mechanisms such as the BMP/Smad and PI3K/AKT/m-TOR signaling pathways were detected by ELISA and western blot analysis.

Abstract
The modulation of inflammation in tissue microenvironment takes an important role in cartilage repair and regeneration. In this study, a novel hybrid scaffold was designed and fabricated by filling a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging hydrogel (RS Gel) into a radially oriented poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffold. The radially oriented PLGA scaffolds were fabricated through a temperature gradient-guided phase separation and freeze-drying method. The RS Gel was formed by crosslinking the mixture of ROS-responsive hyperbranched polymers and biocompatible methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HA-MA). The hybrid scaffolds exhibited a proper compressive modulus, good ROS-scavenging capability, and cell compatibility.In vivotests showed that the hybrid scaffolds significantly regulated inflammation and promoted regeneration of hyaline cartilage after they were implanted into full-thickness cartilage defects in rabbits for 12 w. In comparison with the PLGA scaffolds, the neo-cartilage in the hybrid scaffolds group possessed more deposition of glycosaminoglycans and collagen type II, and were well integrated with the surrounding tissue.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory autoimmune disease that occurs as a result of impaired immune tolerance, leading to an aberrant immune response to autologous antigens. Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MMSCs) and the biologically active substances they produce can promote the activation of regenerative processes in the organism not only by direct cell differentiation, but also due to their inherent trophic and immunosuppressive potentials. The aim of the study was to experimentally evaluate changes in the course of the acute phase of adjuvant arthritis upon local and generalized administration of cryopreserved MMSCs from adipose and cartilage tissues. The results of histological, imunohistochemical and biochemical studies showed that the animals of the control group throughout the observation period developed an inflammatory process, which manifested in joint swelling (increased arthritis index), leukocytosis, spread of chondrocyte-free zones, weakening of staining, loss of clarity of cartilage tissue contours, increased content of cyclooxygenase-2, reduced glycosaminoglycan content and total antioxidant defense system activity. At the same time, the local administration of cryopreserved MMSCs from adipose and cartilage tissues contributed to the normalization of the structural and functional organization, content of glycosaminoglycans and cyclooxygenase-2 with complete recovery of blood parameters. Less pronounced regeneration processes in articular cartilage occurred under generalized administration of cryopreserved MMSCs from adipose and cartilage tissues in comparison with the local method. However, the difference between the control and experimental groups indicates the ability of cryopreserved MMSCs to influence the intensity of regenerative processes in damaged cartilage tissue with both methods of administration. Comparative evaluation of the use of cryopreserved MMSCs from adipose and cartilage tissues showed the absence of significant changes in the studied indicators. These data can be used to substantiate and develop methods of arthritis treatment in clinical practice.

Abstract
Recently, biomaterials for cartilage regeneration has been intensively investigated. However, the development of scaffolds that capture regenerated cartilage with biomechanical and structural recovery has rarely been reported. To address this challenge, platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-based cartilage constructs with a well-orchestrated symphony of cellular, biochemical and biomechanical elements were prepared by simultaneously employing chondrogenic progenitor cells (CPCs) as a cell source, optimizing platelet concentration, and adding an enzyme-ion activator. It was shown that this triple-optimized PRP + CPC construct possessed increased biomechanical properties and suitable biochemical signals. The following in vitro study demonstrated that the triple-optimized PRP + CPC constructs generated cartilage-like tissue with higher expression levels of chondrogenic-specific markers, more deposition of cartilage-specific extracellular matrix (ECM), and greater biomechanical values than those of the other constructs. Twelve weeks after the construct was implanted in a cartilage defect in vivo, histological analysis, qPCR, and biomechanical tests collectively showed that the triple-optimized constructs yielded a more chondrocyte-like cell phenotype with a higher synthesis of Col-II and aggrecan. More importantly, the triple-optimized constructs facilitated cartilage regeneration with better biomechanical recovery than that of the other constructs. These results demonstrate the efficacy of the triple-optimization strategy and highlight the simplicity and potency of this PRP + CPC construct for cartilage regeneration. Cartilage tissue engineering has been intensively investigated. We designed a PRP-based construct with favorable cell source, reinforced scaffold and appropriate biofactors. This designed construct can facilitate cartilage regeneration with biomechanical and structural recovery simultaneously. The favorable performance of the proposed scaffolds highlights the triple-optimization strategy to improve cartilage engineering.

Abstract
The differentiation of osteoblasts is under complex regulation that includes autocrine and paracrine signaling from MSCs. Exosomes are important components of the MSC secretome and their cargo contains numerous miRNAs. In this study, the importance of MSC miRNAs in modulation of osteoblastic differentiation was examined by global reduction of miRNA biosynthesis in Dicer knock down hMSCs. We additionally impaired hMSC responses to miRNAs by knockdown of Argonaute 2 expression. Knockdown of Dicer and Argonaute 2 both reduced osteoblastic differentiation of hMSCs. This was observed at the levels of hMSC culture mineralization and osteoblastic gene expression. The treatment of Dicer deficient hMSCs with wild type hMSC exosomes effectively recovered the impaired osteoblastic differentiation. Dicer knockdown reduced the quantity and diversity of miRNAs present in hMSC exosomes. miRSeq data and KEGG analysis implicated the miRNA-dependent effects on multiple osteoinductive pathways in Dicer deficient cells, including the Hippo signaling and TGF-beta signaling pathways. Treatment of hMSCs with mimics of miRNAs significantly downregulated in Dicer knockdown cells recovered functions of exosome-mediated signaling in hMSCs. These results indicate that hMSC exosomes exert miRNA-dependent control that contributes to osteoblastic differentiation.

Abstract
Tissue damage related to bone and cartilage is a common clinical disease. Cartilage tissue has no blood vessels and nerves. The limited cell migration ability results in low endogenous healing ability. Due to the complexity of the osteochondral interface, the clinical treatment of osteochondral injury is limited. Tissue engineering provides new ideas for solving this problem. The ideal tissue engineering scaffold must have appropriate porosity, biodegradability and specific functions related to tissue regeneration, especially bioactive polymer nanofiber composite materials with controllable biodegradation rate and appropriate mechanical properties have been getting more and more research. The nanofibers produced by electrospinning have high specific surface area and suitable mechanical properties, which can effectively simulate the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) of bone or cartilage tissue. The composition of materials can affect mechanical properties, plasticity, biocompatibility and degradability of the scaffold, thereby further affect the repair efficiency. This article reviews the characteristics of polymer materials and the application of its electrospun nanofibers in bone, cartilage and osteochondral tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A repaired rotator cuff (RC) often heals with interposed scar tissue, making repairs prone to failure. Urine-derived stem cells (USCs), with robust proliferation ability and multilineage differentiation, can be isolated from urine, avoiding invasive and painful surgical procedures for harvesting the cells. These advantages make it a novel cell source for autologous transplantation to enhance RC healing. HYPOTHESIS Implantation of an autogenous USC sheet to the injury site will enhance RC healing. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS USCs isolated from urine were cultured using ascorbic acid and transforming growth factor β3 to form a cell sheet. Sixteen male mature beagles underwent bilateral shoulder surgery. The right shoulder underwent infraspinatus tendon (IT) insertion detachment and repair only, and the other was subjected to IT insertion detachment and repair, followed by autogenous USC sheet implantation. Among the animals, 3 received a Dil (1,1'-dioctadecyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate)- labeled USC sheet implant in the right shoulder and were sacrificed at postoperative 6 weeks for cell tracking. The other animals were sacrificed at postoperative 12 weeks, and the IT-humerus complexes were harvested for gross observation, micro-computed tomography evaluation and histological analysis (n = 5), and mechanical testing (n = 8). Additionally, 13 unpaired canine cadaveric shoulders were included as native controls. RESULTS Micro-computed tomography analysis showed that the USC sheet group had a significant increase in bone volume/total volume and trabecular thickness at the RC healing site when compared with the control group (P < .05 for all). Histologically, the Dil-labeled USC sheet was still visible at the RC healing site, which suggested that the implanted USCs remained viable at postoperative 6 weeks. Meanwhile, the healing interface in the USC sheet group regenerated significantly more enthesis-like tissue than did that of the control group (P < .05). Additionally, the healing interface in the USC sheet group presented a larger fibrocartilage area, more proteoglycan deposition, and higher collagen birefringence than did that of the control group (P < .05 for all). Biomechanically, the USC sheet group showed significantly higher failure load and stiffness versus the control group (P < .05 for all). CONCLUSION A USC sheet was able to enhance RC healing in a canine model. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The findings of the study showed that USC sheet implantation could serve as a practical application for RC healing.

Abstract
Clinical treatments for the repair of osteochondral defects (OCD) are merely palliative, not completely curative, and thus enormously unfulfilled challenges. With the in-depth studies of biology, medicine, materials, and engineering technology, the conception of OCD repair and regeneration should be renewed. During the past decades, many innovative tissue-engineered approaches for repairing and regenerating damaged osteochondral units have been widely explored. Various scaffold-free and scaffold-based strategies, such as monophasic, biphasic, and currently fabricated multiphasic and gradient architectures have been proposed and evaluated. Meanwhile, progenitor cells and tissue-specific cells have also been intensively investigated in vivo as well as ex vivo. Concerning bioactive factors and drugs, they have been combined with scaffolds and/or living cells, and even released in a spatiotemporally controlled manner. Although tremendous progress has been achieved, further research and development (R&D) is needed to convert preclinical outcomes into clinical applications. Here, the osteochondral unit structure, its defect classifications, and diagnosis are summarized. Commonly used clinical reparative techniques, tissue-engineered strategies, emerging 3D-bioprinting technologies, and the status of their clinical applications are discussed. Existing challenges to translation are also discussed and potential solutions for future R&D directions are proposed.

Abstract
Objective: The aim of this article is to examine current concepts and the future direction of implementing photobiomodulation (PBM) for fracture treatment. Background data: The effectiveness of PBM for bone regeneration has been demonstrated throughout in vitro studies and animal models. Yet, insufficient clinical trials have been reported on treating fractures with PBM. Materials and methods: A narrative review was composed on the basis of a literary search. Inclusion criteria consisted of studies between 2000 and 2019 using animal or human fracture models. Exclusion criteria consisted of studies that did not pertain to complete fractures or used other forms of intervention. Results: Ten animal studies on rats and rabbits and four clinical trials were found on using PBM for complete fractures. Conclusions: Based on positive outcomes in animal trials, parameter optimization of PBM for human fractures still requires extensive research on factors such as dosage, wavelength, penetration depth, treatment frequency, and the use of pulsed waves.

Mol Med Rep 2020; 21:2236-2242. [PMID: 32186772 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2020.11028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2019] [Accepted: 02/03/2020] [Indexed: 11/05/2022] Open
Abstract
Articular cartilage tissue has a poor healing potential, and when subjected to traumatic damage this tissue undergoes cartilage degeneration and osteoarthritis. The association between the regulation of cell cycle checkpoints and tissue regeneration has been previously investigated, and p21 was initially identified as a potent inhibitor of cell cycle progression. However, the effects of p21 defects on damaged tissue remain controversial. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of p21 deficiency on cartilage repair. A mouse model of articular cartilage repair was generated by inducing a patellar groove scratch in 8‑week‑old p21‑knockout (KO) mice and C57Bl/6 wild‑type (WT) mice. Mice were sacrificed at 4 and 8 weeks post‑surgery. The present study also investigated the effect of p21 deficiency on cartilage differentiation in ATDC5 cells in vitro. Safranin O staining results indicated that cartilage repair initially occurred in p21 KO mice. In addition, immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that p21 KO upregulated proliferating cell nuclear antigen and increased cell proliferation. However, type II collagen and Sox9 expression levels remained unchanged in p21 KO and WT mice. Moreover, it was identified that p21 downregulation did not affect Sox9 and type II collagen expression levels in vitro. Furthermore, p21 deficiency promoted healing of articular cartilage damage, which was associated with cell proliferation in vivo, and increased chondrocyte proliferation but not differentiation in vitro. Therefore, the present results suggested that p21 does not affect Sox9 or type II collagen expression levels during cartilage differentiation in the repair of cartilage defects.

Abstract
Current cell-based therapies on musculoskeletal tissue regeneration were mostly determined in rodent models. However, a direct translation of those promising cell-based therapies to humans exists a significant hurdle. For solving this problem, canine has been developed as a new large animal model to bridge the gap from rodents to humans. In this study, we reported the isolation and characterization of urine-derived stem cells (USCs) from mature healthy beagle dogs. The isolated cells showed fibroblast-like morphology and had good clonogenicity and proliferation. Meanwhile, these cells positively expressed multiple markers of MSCs (CD29, CD44, CD90, and CD73), but negatively expressed for hematopoietic antigens (CD11b, CD34, and CD45). Additionally, after induction culturing, the isolated cells can be differentiated into osteogenic, adipogenic, chondrogenic, and tenogenic lineages. The successful isolation and verification of USCs from canine were useful for studying cell-based therapies and developing new treatments for musculoskeletal injuries using the preclinical canine model.
