Enhanced hyaline cartilage formation and continuous osteochondral regeneration via 3D-Printed heterogeneous hydrogel with multi-crosslinking inks. Mater Today Bio 2024; 26:101080. [PMID: 38757056 PMCID: PMC11097081 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101080] [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: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The unique gradient structure and complex composition of osteochondral tissue pose significant challenges in defect regeneration. Restoration of tissue heterogeneity while maintaining hyaline cartilage components has been a difficulty of an osteochondral tissue graft. A novel class of multi-crosslinked polysaccharide-based three-dimensional (3D) printing inks, including decellularized natural cartilage (dNC) and nano-hydroxyapatite, was designed to create a gradient scaffold with a robust interface-binding force. Herein, we report combining a dual-nozzle cross-printing technology and a gradient crosslinking method to create the scaffolds, demonstrating stable mechanical properties and heterogeneous bilayer structures. Biofunctional assessments revealed the remarkable regenerative effects of the scaffold, manifesting three orders of magnitude of mRNA upregulation during chondrogenesis and the formation of pure hyaline cartilage. Transcriptomics of the regeneration site in vivo and scaffold cell interaction tests in vitro showed that printed porous multilayer scaffolds could form the correct tissue structure for cell migration. More importantly, polysaccharides with dNC provided a hydrophilic microenvironment. The microenvironment is crucial in osteochondral regeneration because it could guide the regenerated cartilage to ensure the hyaline phenotype.

Abstract
Gelatin and sodium alginate (SA) are two important biological macromolecules, exhibiting excellent biocompatibility and gel-forming ability. However, traditional SA and gelatin hydrogel displays limited mass transport, low porosity, instability, and poor mechanical properties extremely restricted their therapeutic effect and application scenarios. Herein, microbial fermentation and synergistic toughening strategies were used for preparing macroporous and tough hydrogel. The study investigated the fermentation and toughening conditions of hydrogel. The hydrogel composed of CaCl2 cross-linked physically network and EDC/NHS cross-linked covalently network, exhibiting significantly improved mechanical properties, and excellent recovery efficiency. In addition, the hydrogel has a hierarchical macroporous structure of 100-500 μm, demonstrating high porosity of 10 times, swelling rate of 1541.0 %, and high mass infiltration capability. Further, after Ag+ treatment, the macroporous hydrogel dressing showed outstanding biocompatibility. Compared with non-porous hydrogel, the resulting macroporous hydrogel dressing displayed high antibacterial and antioxidant properties. It could effectively alleviate intracellular ROS formation induced by H2O2.In vivo experiments indicated that it has significantly better effect than non-porous hydrogel in accelerating wound healing. The overall results suggest that the gelatin/SA-based macroporous and tough hydrogel proposed in this study holds excellent prospects for application in wound dressings.

Abstract
Wound repair is a complex challenge for both clinical practitioners and researchers. Conventional approaches for wound repair have several limitations. Stem cell-based therapy has emerged as a novel strategy to address this issue, exhibiting significant potential for enhancing wound healing rates, improving wound quality, and promoting skin regeneration. However, the use of stem cells in skin regeneration presents several challenges. Recently, stem cells and biomaterials have been identified as crucial components of the wound-healing process. Combination therapy involving the development of biocompatible scaffolds, accompanying cells, multiple biological factors, and structures resembling the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) has gained considerable attention. Biological scaffolds encompass a range of biomaterials that serve as platforms for seeding stem cells, providing them with an environment conducive to growth, similar to that of the ECM. These scaffolds facilitate the delivery and application of stem cells for tissue regeneration and wound healing. This article provides a comprehensive review of the current developments and applications of biological scaffolds for stem cells in wound healing, emphasizing their capacity to facilitate stem cell adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and paracrine functions. Additionally, we identify the pivotal characteristics of the scaffolds that contribute to enhanced cellular activity.

Abstract
The essential role of the neural network in enhancing bone regeneration has often been overlooked in biomaterial design, leading to delayed or compromised bone healing. Engineered mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-derived exosomes are becoming increasingly recognized as potent cell-free agents for manipulating cellular behavior and improving therapeutic effectiveness. Herein, MSCs are stimulated with nerve growth factor (NGF) to regulate exosomal cargoes to improve neuro-promotive potential and facilitate innervated bone regeneration. In vitro cell experiments showed that the NGF-stimulated MSCs-derived exosomes (N-Exos) obviously improved the cellular function and neurotrophic effects of the neural cells, and consequently, the osteogenic potential of the osteo-reparative cells. Bioinformatic analysis by miRNA sequencing and pathway enrichment revealed that the beneficial effects of N-Exos may partly be ascribed to the NGF-elicited multicomponent exosomal miRNAs and the subsequent regulation and activation of the MAPK and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. On this basis, N-Exos were delivered on the micropores of the 3D-printed hierarchical porous scaffold to accomplish the sustained release profile and extended bioavailability. In a rat model with a distal femoral defect, the N-Exos-functionalized hierarchical porous scaffold significantly induced neurovascular structure formation and innervated bone regeneration. This study provided a feasible strategy to modulate the functional cargoes of MSCs-derived exosomes to acquire desirable neuro-promotive and osteogenic potential. Furthermore, the developed N-Exos-functionalized hierarchical porous scaffold may represent a promising neurovascular-promotive bone reparative scaffold for clinical translation.

Abstract
Bone defects stemming from tumorous growths, traumatic events, and diverse conditions present a profound conundrum in clinical practice and research. While bone has the inherent ability to regenerate, substantial bone anomalies require bone regeneration techniques. Bone organoids represent a new concept in this field, involving the 3D self-assembly of bone-associated stem cells guided in vitro with or without extracellular matrix material, resulting in a tissue that mimics the structural, functional, and genetic properties of native bone tissue. Within the scientific panorama, bone organoids ascend to an esteemed status, securing significant experimental endorsement. Through a synthesis of current literature and pioneering studies, this review offers a comprehensive survey of the bone organoid paradigm, delves into the quintessential architecture and ontogeny of bone, and highlights the latest progress in bone organoid fabrication. Further, existing challenges and prospective directions for future research are identified, advocating for interdisciplinary collaboration to fully harness the potential of this burgeoning domain. Conclusively, as bone organoid technology continues to mature, its implications for both clinical and research landscapes are poised to be profound.

Abstract
The bone defect caused by fracture, bone tumor, infection, and other causes is not only a problematic point in clinical treatment but also one of the hot issues in current research. The development of bone tissue engineering provides a new way to repair bone defects. Many animal experimental and rising clinical application studies have shown their excellent application prospects. The construction of rapid vascularization of tissue-engineered bone is the main bottleneck and critical factor in repairing bone defects. The rapid establishment of vascular networks early after biomaterial implantation can provide sufficient nutrients and transport metabolites. If the slow formation of the local vascular network results in a lack of blood supply, the osteogenesis process will be delayed or even unable to form new bone. The researchers modified the scaffold material by changing the physical and chemical properties of the scaffold material, loading the growth factor sustained release system, and combining it with trace elements so that it can promote early angiogenesis in the process of induced bone regeneration, which is beneficial to the whole process of bone regeneration. This article reviews the local vascular microenvironment in the process of bone defect repair and the current methods of improving scaffold materials and promoting vascularization.

Abstract
The treatment of bone defects remains a substantial clinical challenge due to the lack of spatiotemporal management of the immune microenvironment, revascularization, and osteogenic differentiation. Herein, deferoxamine (DFO)-loaded black phosphorus nanosheets decorated by polydopamine layer are prepared (BPPD) and compounded into gelatin methacrylate/sodium alginate methacrylate (GA) hybrid hydrogel as a smart-responsive therapeutic system (GA/BPPD) for accelerated bone regeneration. The BPPD nanocomposites served as bioactive components and near-infrared (NIR) photothermal agents, which conferred the hydrogel with excellent NIR/pH dual-responsive properties, realizing the stimuli-responsive release of DFO and PO4 3 - during bone regeneration. Under the action of NIR-triggered mild photothermal therapy, the GA/BPPD hydrogel exhibited a positive effect on promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis, eliminating excessive reactive oxygen species, and inducing macrophage polarization to the M2 phenotype. More significantly, through macrophage M2 polarization-induced osteoimmune microenvironment, this hydrogel platform could also drive functional cytokine secretion for enhanced angiogenesis and osteogenesis. In vivo experiments further demonstrated that the GA/BPPD system could facilitate bone healing by attenuating the local inflammatory response, increasing the secretion of pro-healing factors, stimulating endogenous cell recruitment, and accelerating revascularization. Collectively, the proposed intelligent photothermal hydrogel platform provides a promising strategy to reshape the damaged tissue microenvironment for augmented bone regeneration.

Abstract
The bone matrix has distinct architecture and biochemistry which present a barrier to synthesizing bone-mimetic regenerative scaffolds. To mimic the natural structures and components of bone, biomimetic structural decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM)/regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) scaffolds incorporated with magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) are prepared using a facile synthetic methodology. The ECM/RSF/MNP scaffold is a hierarchically organized and interconnected porous structure with silk fibroin twined on the collagen nanofibers. The scaffold demonstrates saturation magnetization due to the presence of MNP, along with good cytocompatibility. Moreover, the β-sheet crystalline domain of RSF and the chelated MNP could mimic the deposition of hydroxyapatite and enhance compressive modulus of the scaffold by ≈20%. The results indicate that an external static magnetic field (SMF) with a magnetic responsive scaffold effectively promotes cell migration, osteogenic differentiation, neogenesis of endotheliocytes in vitro, and new bone formation in a critical-size femur defect rat model. RNA sequencing reveals that the molecular mechanisms underlying this osteogenic effect involve calsequestrin-2-mediated Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum to activate Ca2+ /calmodulin/calmodulin-dependent kinase II signaling axis. Collectively, bionic magnetic scaffolds with SMF stimulation provide a potent strategy for bone regeneration through internal structural cues, biochemical composition, and external physical stimulation on intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by diseases or surgery are a common clinical problem. Researchers are devoted to finding biological mechanisms that accelerate bone defect repair, which is a complex and continuous process controlled by many factors. As members of transcriptional costimulatory molecules, Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) play an important regulatory role in osteogenesis, and they affect cell function by regulating the expression of osteogenic genes in osteogenesis-related cells. Macrophages are an important group of cells whose function is regulated by YAP/TAZ. Currently, the relationship between YAP/TAZ and macrophage polarization has attracted increasing attention. In bone tissue, YAP/TAZ can realize diverse osteogenic regulation by mediating macrophage polarization. Macrophages polarize into M1 and M2 phenotypes under different stimuli. M1 macrophages dominate the inflammatory response by releasing a number of inflammatory mediators in the early phase of bone defect repair, while massive aggregation of M2 macrophages is beneficial for inflammation resolution and tissue repair, as they secrete many anti-inflammatory and osteogenesis-related cytokines. The mechanism of YAP/TAZ-mediated macrophage polarization during osteogenesis warrants further study and it is likely to be a promising strategy for bone defect repair. In this article, we review the effect of Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling and macrophage polarization on bone defect repair, and highlight the regulation of macrophage polarization by YAP/TAZ.

Abstract
The application of three-dimensional printing technology in the medical field has great potential for bone defect repair, especially personalized and biological repair. As a green manufacturing process that does not involve liquefication through heating, low-temperature deposition manufacturing (LDM) is a promising type of rapid prototyping manufacturing and has been widely used to fabricate scaffolds in bone tissue engineering. The scaffolds fabricated by LDM have a multi-scale controllable pore structure and interconnected micropores, which are beneficial for the repair of bone defects. At the same time, different types of cells or bioactive factor can be integrated into three-dimensional structural scaffolds through LDM. Herein, we introduced LDM technology and summarize its applications in bone tissue engineering. We divide the scaffolds into four categories according to the skeleton materials and discuss the performance and limitations of the scaffolds. The ideas presented in this review have prospects in the development and application of LDM scaffolds.

Abstract
Biophysical cues of the cellular microenvironment tremendously influence cell behavior by mechanotransduction. However, it is still unclear how cells sense and transduce the mechanical signals from 3D geometry to regulate cell function. Here, the mechanotransduction of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) triggered by 3D micropatterns and its effect on the paracrine of MSCs are systematically investigated. Our findings show that 3D micropattern force could influence the spatial reorganization of the cytoskeleton, leading to different local forces which mediate nucleus alteration such as orientation, morphology, expression of Lamin A/C and chromatin condensation. Specifically, in the triangular prism and cuboid micropatterns, the ordered F-actin fibers are distributed over and fully transmit compressive forces to the nucleus, which results in nuclear flattening and stretching of nuclear pores, thus enhancing the nuclear import of YES-associated protein (YAP). Furthermore, the activation of YAP significantly enhances the paracrine of MSCs and upregulates the secretion of angiogenic growth factors. In contrast, the fewer compressive forces on the nucleus in cylinder and cube micropatterns cause less YAP entering the nucleus. The skin repair experiment provides the first in vivo evidence that enhanced MSCs paracrine by 3D geometry significantly promotes tissue regeneration. The current study contributes to understanding the in-depth mechanisms of mechanical signals affecting cell function and provides inspiration for innovative design of biomaterials.

Abstract
Bone bionics and structural engineering have sparked a broad interest in optimizing artificial scaffolds for better bone regeneration. However, the mechanism behind scaffold pore morphology-regulated bone regeneration remains unclear, making the structure design of scaffolds for bone repair challenging. To address this issue, we have carefully assessed diverse cell behaviors of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds with three representative pore morphologies (i.e., cross column, diamond, and gyroid pore unit, respectively). Among the scaffolds, BMSCs on the β-TCP scaffold with diamond pore unit (designated as D-scaffold) demonstrated enhanced cytoskeletal forces, elongated nucleus, faster cell mobility, and better osteogenic differentiation potential (for example, the alkaline phosphatase expression level in D-scaffold were 1.5-2 times higher than other groups). RNA-sequencing analysis and signaling pathway intervention revealed that Ras homolog gene family A (RhoA)/Rho-associated kinase-2 (ROCK2) has in-depth participated in the pore morphology-mediated BMSCs behaviors, indicating an important role of mechanical signaling transduction in scaffold-cell interactions. Finally, femoral condyle defect repair results showed that D-scaffold could effectively promote endogenous bone regeneration, of which the osteogenesis rate was 1.2-1.8 times higher than the other groups. Overall, this work provides insights into pore morphology-mediated bone regeneration mechanisms for developing novel bioadaptive scaffold designs.

Abstract
Introduction Bone tissue engineering is a promising method to treat bone defects. However, the current methods of preparing composite materials that mimic the complex structure and biological activity of natural bone are challenging for recruitment of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), which affects the application of these materials in situ bone regeneration. Hollow hydroxyapatite microspheres (HHMs) possess a natural porous bone structure, good adsorption, and slow release of chemokines, but have low ability to recruit BMSCs and induce osteogenesis. In this study, The HHM/chitosan (CS) and recombinant human C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 13 (rhCXCL13)-HHM/CS biomimetic scaffolds that optimize bone regeneration and investigated their mechanism of BMSC recruitment and osteogenesis through cell and animal experiments and transcriptomic sequencing. Methods Evaluate the physical characteristics of the HHM/CS and rhCXCL13-HHM/CS biomimetic scaffolds through Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and the cumulative release curve of rhCXCL13. Transwell migration experiments and co-culture with BMSCs were conducted to study the recruitment ability and osteogenic differentiation of the scaffolds. Transcriptomic sequencing was performed to analyze the osteogenic differentiation mechanism. The osteogenesis and bone healing performance were evaluated using a rabbit radial defect model. Results SEM demonstrated that the rhCXCL13-HHM/CS scaffold comprised hydroxyapatite microspheres in a porous three-dimensional network. The rhCXCL13 showed excellent sustained release capability. The rhCXCL13-HHM/CS scaffold could recruit BMSCs and induce bone regeneration. Transcriptome sequencing and experimental results showed that the osteogenesis mechanism of rhCXCL13-HHM/CS was through the PI3K-AKT pathway. In vivo, the rhCXCL13-HHM/CS scaffold significantly promoted osteogenesis and angiogenesis at 12 weeks after surgery. Conclusion The rhCXCL13-HHM/CS scaffold demonstrates excellent potential for BMSC recruitment, osteogenesis, vascularized tissue-engineered bone reconstruction, and drug delivery, providing a theoretical basis for material osteogenesis mechanism study and promising clinical applications for treating large bone defects.

Abstract
Numerous physiological processes occur following bone fracture, including inflammatory cell recruitment, vascularization, and callus formation and remodeling. In particular circumstances, such as critical bone defects or osteonecrosis, the regenerative microenvironment is compromised, rendering endogenous stem/progenitor cells incapable of fully manifesting their reparative potential. Consequently, external interventions, such as grafting or augmentation, are frequently necessary. In situ bone tissue engineering (iBTE) employs cell-free scaffolds that possess microenvironmental cues, which, upon implantation, redirect the behavior of endogenous stem/progenitor cells towards a pro-regenerative inflammatory response and reestablish angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling. This process ultimately results in vascularized bone regeneration (VBR). In this context, a comprehensive review of the current techniques and modalities in VBR-targeted iBTE technology is provided.

Abstract
The pore morphology design of bioceramic scaffolds plays a substantial role in the induction of bone regeneration. Specifically, the effects of different scaffold pore geometry designs on angiogenesis and new bone regeneration remain unclear. Therefore, we fabricated Mg/Sr co-doped wollastonite bioceramic (MS-CSi) scaffolds with three different pore geometries (gyroid, cylindrical, and cubic) and compared their effects on osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. The MS-CSi scaffolds were fabricated by digital light processing (DLP) printing technology. The pore structure, mechanical properties, and degradation rate of the scaffolds were investigated. Cell proliferation on the scaffolds was evaluated using CCK-8 assays while angiogenesis was assessed using Transwell migration assays, tube formation assays, and immunofluorescence staining. The underlying mechanism was explored by western blotting. Osteogenic ability of scaffolds was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, western blotting, and qRT-PCR. Subsequently, a rabbit femoral defect model was prepared to compare differences in the scaffolds in osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vivo. Cell culture experiments showed that the gyroid pore scaffold downregulated YAP/TAZ phosphorylation and enhanced YAP/TAZ nuclear translocation, thereby promoting proliferation, migration, tube formation, and high expression of CD31 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) while strut-based (cubic and cylindrical pore) scaffolds promoted osteogenic differentiation in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and upregulation of osteogenesis-related genes. The gyroid pore scaffolds were observed to facilitate early angiogenesis in the femoral-defect model rabbits while the strut-based scaffolds promoted the formation of new bone tissue. Our study indicated that the pore geometries and pore curvature characteristics of bioceramic scaffolds can be precisely tuned for enhancing both osteogenesis and angiogenesis. These results may provide new ideas for the design of bioceramic scaffolds for bone regeneration.

Abstract
The local application of drug-loaded bioactive scaffold materials is one of the important directions to solve the clinical problem of osteoporotic (OP) bone defects. This study retains the advantages of drug loading and mechanical properties of natural 3D bioactive scaffolds. The scaffolds are functionally modified through chemical and self-assembly approaches with application of polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles and parathyroid hormone-related peptide-1 (PTHrP-1) for efficient local drug loading. This study investigates the effects of the novel bioactive scaffolds on ossification, osteoclastogenesis, and macrophage polarization. This work elucidates the effects of the scaffolds in regulating osteoclastic activity and new bone formation in vitro. Further studies on the establishment and repair of OP bone defects in small animals are conducted, and the potential of natural bioactive porous scaffold materials to promote the repair of OP bone defects is initially verified. The preparation of safe and economical anti-OP bone repair material provides a theoretical basis for clinical translational applications.

Abstract
A photoactivated bone scaffold integrated with minimally invasive implantation and mild thermal-stimulation capability shows great promise in the repair and regeneration of irregularly damaged bone tissues. Developing multifunctional photothermal biomaterials that can simultaneously serve as both controllable thermal stimulators and biodegradable engineering scaffolds for integrated immunomodulation, infection therapy, and impaired bone repair remains an enormous challenge. Herein, an injectable and photocurable hydrogel therapeutic platform (AMAD/MP) based on alginate methacrylate, alginate-graft-dopamine, and polydopamine (PDA)-functionalized Ti3C2 MXene (MXene@PDA) nanosheets is rationally designed for near-infrared (NIR)-mediated bone regeneration synergistic immunomodulation, osteogenesis, and bacterial elimination. The optimized AMAD/MP hydrogel exhibits favorable biocompatibility, osteogenic activity, and immunomodulatory functions in vitro. The proper immune microenvironment provided by AMAD/MP could further modulate the balance of M1/M2 phenotypes of macrophages, thereby suppressing reactive oxygen species-induced inflammatory status. Significantly, this multifunctional hydrogel platform with mild thermal stimulation efficiently attenuates local immune reactions and further promotes new bone formation without the addition of exogenous cells, cytokines, or growth factors. This work highlights the potential application of an advanced multifunctional hydrogel providing photoactivated on-demand thermal cues for bone tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Ideal periosteum materials are required to participate in a sequence of bone repair-related physiological events, including the initial immune response, endogenous stem cell recruitment, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. However, conventional tissue-engineered periosteal materials have difficulty achieving these functions by simply mimicking the periosteum via structural design or by loading exogenous stem cells, cytokines, or growth factors. Herein, we present a novel biomimetic periosteum preparation strategy to comprehensively enhance the bone regeneration effect using functionalized piezoelectric materials. The resulting biomimetic periosteum possessing an excellent piezoelectric effect and improved physicochemical properties was prepared using a biocompatible and biodegradable poly(3-hydroxybutyric acid-co-3-hydrovaleric acid) (PHBV) polymer matrix, antioxidized polydopamine-modified hydroxyapatite (PHA), and barium titanate (PBT), which were further incorporated into the polymer matrix to fabricate a multifunctional piezoelectric periosteum by a simple one-step spin-coating method. The addition of PHA and PBT dramatically enhanced the physicochemical properties and biological functions of the piezoelectric periosteum, resulting in improved surface hydrophilicity and roughness, enhanced mechanical performance, tunable degradation behavior, and stable and desired endogenous electrical stimulations, which is conducive to accelerating bone regeneration. Benefiting from endogenous piezoelectric stimulation and bioactive components, the as-fabricated biomimetic periosteum demonstrated favorable biocompatibility, osteogenic activity, and immunomodulatory functions in vitro, which not only promoted adhesion, proliferation, and spreading as well as osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) but also effectively induced M2 macrophage polarization, thereby suppressing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced inflammatory reactions. Through in vivo experiments, the biomimetic periosteum with endogenous piezoelectric stimulation synergistically accelerated the formation of new bone in a rat critical-sized cranial defect model. The whole defect was almost completely covered by new bone at 8 weeks post treatment, with a thickness close to that of the host bone. Collectively, with its favorable immunomodulatory and osteogenic properties, the biomimetic periosteum developed here represents a novel method to rapidly regenerate bone tissue using piezoelectric stimulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, there has been significant research progress on in situ articular cartilage (AC) tissue engineering with endogenous stem cells, which uses biological materials or bioactive factors to improve the regeneration microenvironment and recruit more endogenous stem cells from the joint cavity to the defect area to promote cartilage regeneration. METHOD In this study, we used ECM alone as a bioink in low-temperature deposition manufacturing (LDM) 3D printing and then successfully fabricated a hierarchical porous ECM scaffold incorporating GDF-5. RESULTS Comparative in vitro experiments showed that the 7% ECM scaffolds had the best biocompatibility. After the addition of GDF-5 protein, the ECM scaffolds significantly improved bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) migration and chondrogenic differentiation. Most importantly, the in vivo results showed that the ECM/GDF-5 scaffold significantly enhanced in situ cartilage repair. CONCLUSION In conclusion, this study reports the construction of a new scaffold based on the concept of in situ regeneration, and we believe that our findings will provide a new treatment strategy for AC defect repair.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) have the ability of self-renewal, the potential of multipotent differentiation, and a strong paracrine capacity, which are mainly used in the field of clinical medicine including dentistry and orthopedics. Therefore, tissue engineering research using MSCs as seed cells is a current trending directions. However, the healing effect of direct cell transplantation is unstable, and the paracrine/autocrine effects of MSCs cannot be effectively elicited. Tumorigenicity and heterogeneity are also concerns. The combination of MSCs as seed cells and appropriate vector materials can form a stable cell growth environment, maximize the secretory features of stem cells, and improve the biocompatibility and mechanical properties of vector materials that facilitate the delivery of drugs and various secretory factors. There are numerous studies on tissue engineering and inflammation of various biomaterials, mainly involving bioceramics, alginate, chitosan, hydrogels, cell sheets, nanoparticles, and three-dimensional printing. The combination of bioceramics, hydrogels and cell sheets with stem cells has demonstrated good therapeutic effects in clinical applications. The application of alginate, chitosan, and nanoparticles in animal models has also shown good prospects for clinical applications. Three-dimensional printing technology can circumvent the shortage of biomaterials, greatly improve the properties of vector materials, and facilitate the transplantation of MSCs. The purpose of this narrative review is to briefly discuss the current use of MSC-based carrier biomaterials to provide a useful resource for future tissue engineering and inflammation research using stem cells as seed cells.

Engineering exosomes by three-dimensional porous scaffold culture of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells promote osteochondral repair. Mater Today Bio 2023; 19:100549.

Abstract
Improving the poor microenvironment in the joint cavity has potential for treating cartilage injury, and mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes (MSC-Exos), which can modulate cellular behavior, are becoming a new cell-free therapy for cartilage repair. Here, we used acellular cartilage extracellular matrix (ACECM) to prepare 3D scaffolds and 2D substrates by low-temperature deposition modeling (LDM) and tape casting. We aimed to investigate whether MSC-Exos cultured on scaffolds of different dimensions could improve the poor joint cavity microenvironment caused by cartilage injury and to explore the related mechanisms. In vitro experiments showed that exosomes derived from MSCs cultured on three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds (3D-Exos) had increased efficiency. In short-term animal experiments, compared with exosomes derived from MSCs cultured in a two-dimensional (2D) environment (2D-Exos), 3D-Exos had a stronger ability to regulate the joint cavity microenvironment. Long-term animal studies confirmed the therapeutic efficacy of 3D-Exos over 2D-Exos. Thus, 3D-Exos were applied in the rat knee osteochondral defect model after adsorption in the micropores of the scaffold and combined with subsequent articular cavity injections, and they showed a stronger cartilage repair ability. These findings provide a new strategy for repairing articular cartilage damage. Furthermore, miRNA sequencing indicated that the function of 3D-Exos may be associated with high expression of miRNAs. Thus, our study provides valuable insights for the design of 3D-Exos to promote cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
Tissue engineering strategy that combine biomaterials with living cells has shown special advantages in tissue regeneration and promoted the development of regenerative medicine. In particular, the rising of 3D printing technology further enriched the structural design and composition of tissue engineering scaffolds, which also provided convenience for cell loading and cell delivery of living cells. In this review, two types of cell-delivery scaffolds for tissue regeneration, including 3D printed scaffolds with subsequent cell-seeding and 3D cells bioprinted scaffolds, are mainly reviewed. We devote a major part to present and discuss the recent advances of two 3D printed cell-delivery scaffolds in regeneration of various tissues, involving bone, cartilage, skin tissues etc. Although two types of 3D printed cell-delivery scaffolds have some shortcomings, they do have generally facilitated the exploration of tissue engineering scaffolds in multiple tissue regeneration. It is expected that 3D printed cell-delivery scaffolds will be further explored in function mechanism of seeding cells in vivo, precise mimicking of complex tissues and even organ reconstruction under the cooperation of multiple fields in future.

Biomater Res 2022; 26:83. [PMID: 36528594 PMCID: PMC9758932 DOI: 10.1186/s40824-022-00325-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have been found to have a great potential for soft tissue repair due to various biological functions, including pro-angiogenesis and low immunogenicity. However, the low yield and heterogeneity of MSC-EVs limited their clinical transformation. This study was designed to develop a novel adipose-derived stem cell engineered nanovesicles (ADSC-NVs) with high production and explore its pro-angiogenetic effect and application in adipose tissue regeneration. METHODS Adipose-derived stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (ADSC-EVs) were isolated from an EVs-free culture medium for human ADSCs (hADSCs). ADSC-NVs were prepared by sequentially extruding ADSCs followed by iodixanol density gradient ultracentrifugation and were compared with ADSC-EVs in morphology, size distribution, protein contents and yield. The pro-angiogenetic effect of ADSC-NVs in different doses (0, 5, 20 and 80 μg/mL) in vitro was determined using transwell assay, tube formation assay, western blot and qRT-PCR. In vivo, BALB/c nude mice were administered injection of a mixture of fat granules and different dose of ADSC-NVs and grafts were harvested at 12 weeks post-transplantation for further analysis. By analyzing the weight and volume of grafts and histological evaluation, we investigated the effect of ADSC-NVs in vessel formation and adipose tissue regeneration. RESULTS Our results showed yield of purified ADSC-NVs was approximately 20 times more than that of ADSC-EVs secreted by the same number of ADSCs. In vitro, both ADSC-NVs and ADSC-EVs exhibited a dose-dependent pro-angiogenetic effect, despite their distinct miRNA profiles. These effects of ADSC-NVs may be mediated by enriched miR-21-5p via PTEN inhibition and PI3K/p-Akt signaling activation. Furthermore, after a mixed injection of ADSC-NVs, vessel formation and adipose regeneration were observed in vivo in fat implants. CONCLUSIONS Our study developed a potent alternative of ADSC-EVs. ADSC-NVs have a high pro-angiogenesis potential and can be used as cell-free therapeutic biomaterials in soft tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Extrusion additive manufacturing is widely used to fabricate polymer-based 3D bone scaffolds. However, the insight views of crystal growths, scaffold features and eventually cell-scaffold interactions are still unknown. In this work, melt and solvent extrusion additive manufacturing techniques are used to produce scaffolds considering highly analogous printing conditions. Results show that the scaffolds produced by these two techniques present distinct physiochemical properties, with melt-printed scaffolds showing stronger mechanical properties and solvent-printed scaffolds showing rougher surface, higher degradation rate, and faster stress relaxation. These differences are attributed to the two different crystal growth kinetics, temperature-induced crystallization (TIC) and strain-induced crystallization (SIC), forming large/integrated spherulite-like and a small/fragmented lamella-like crystal regions respectively. The stiffer substrate of melt-printed scaffolds contributes to higher ratio of nuclear Yes-associated protein (YAP) allocation, favoring cell proliferation and differentiation. Faster relaxation and degradation of solvent-printed scaffolds result in dynamic surface, contributing to an early-stage faster osteogenesis differentiation.

Abstract
The integration of 3D bioprinting and stem cells is of great promise in facilitating the reconstruction of cranial defects. However, the effectiveness of the scaffolds has been hampered by the limited cell behavior and functions. Herein, a therapeutic cell-laden hydrogel for bone regeneration is therefore developed through the design of a void-forming hydrogel. This hydrogel is prepared by digital light processing (DLP)-based bioprinting of the bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) mixed with gelatin methacrylate (GelMA)/dextran emulsion. The 3D-bioprinted hydrogel can not only promote the proliferation, migration, and spreading of the encapsulated BMSCs, but also stimulate the YAP signal pathway, thus leading to the enhanced osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. In addition, the in vivo therapeutic assessments reveal that the void-forming hydrogel shows great potential for BMSCs delivery and can significantly promote bone regeneration. These findings suggest that the unique 3D-bioprinted void-forming hydrogels are promising candidates for applications in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Nanotopographical cues endow biomaterials the ability to guide cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Cellular mechanical memory can maintain the cell status by retaining cellular information obtained from past mechanical microenvironments. Here, we propose a new concept “morphology memory of small extracellular vesicles (sEV)” for bone regeneration. We performed nanotopography on titanium plates through alkali and heat (Ti8) treatment to promote human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) differentiation. Next, we extracted the sEVs from the hMSC, which were cultured on the nanotopographical Ti plates for 21 days (Ti8-21-sEV). We demonstrated that Ti8-21-sEV had superior pro-osteogenesis ability in vitro and in vivo. RNA sequencing further confirmed that Ti8-21-sEV promote bone regeneration through osteogenic-related pathways, including the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway, MAPK signaling pathway, focal adhesion, and extracellular matrix-receptor interaction. Finally, we decorated the Ti8-21-sEV on a 3D printed porous polyetheretherketone scaffold. The femoral condyle defect model of rabbits was used to demonstrate that Ti8-21-sEV had the best bone ingrowth. In summary, our study demonstrated that the Ti8-21-sEV have memory function by copying the pro-osteogenesis information from the nanotopography. We expect that our study will encourage the discovery of other sEV with morphology memory for tissue regeneration. Nanotopography fabricated on titanium plates has superior promoted hMSCs differentiation ability. sEV extracted from hMSCs which were cultured on Ti8 plates for 21 days had the superior pro-osteogenesis ability. Ti8-21-sEV have memory function through copy the pro-osteogenesis information from nanotopography. RNA sequencing confirmed that Ti8-21-sEV promote bone regeneration through osteogenic-related pathways.

Abstract
Recently, strategies that focus on biofunctionalized implant surfaces to enhance bone defect healing through the synergistic regulation of osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and osteoclastogenesis have attracted increasing attention in the bone tissue engineering field. Studies have shown that the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway has an imperative effect of promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis while reducing osteoclastogenesis. However, how to prepare biofunctionalized bone implants with balanced osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and osteoclastogenesis by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway has seldom been investigated. Herein, through a bioinspired dopamine chemistry and self-assembly method, BML-284 (BML), a potent and highly selective Wnt signaling activator, was loaded on a mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) layer that had been immobilized on the porous beta-tricalcium calcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffold surface and subsequently modified by a biocompatible carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel to form a sandwich-like hybrid surface. β-TCP provides a biomimetic three-dimensional porous microenvironment similar to that of natural cancellous bone, and the BML-loaded sandwich-like hybrid surface endows the scaffold with multifunctional properties for potential application in bone regeneration. The results show that the sustained release of BML from the sandwich-like hybrid surface significantly facilitates the adhesion, migration, proliferation, spreading, and osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells as well as the angiogenic activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. In addition to osteogenesis and angiogenesis, the hybrid surface also exerts critical roles in suppressing osteoclastic activity. Remarkably, in a critical-sized cranial defect model, the biofunctionalized β-TCP scaffold could potentially trigger a chain of biological events: stimulating the polarization of M2 macrophages, recruiting endogenous stem cells and endothelial cells at the injury site to enable a favorable microenvironment for greatly accelerating bone ingrowth and angiogenesis while compromising osteoclastogenesis, thereby promoting bone healing. Therefore, these surface-biofunctionalized β-TCP implants, which regulate the synergies of osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and anti-osteoclastogenesis, indicate strong potential for clinical application as advanced orthopedic implants.

Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) as a popular orthopaedic implant is usually fabricated into a hierarchically porous structure for improving osteogenic activity. However, the applications are limited due to the excessively high processing temperature and uncontrollably tedious modification routes. Here, an amorphous polyaryletherketone with carboxyl groups (PAEK-COOH) is synthesized and fabricated to the hierarchically controllable porous scaffolds via a low-temperature 3D-printing process. The prepared PAEK-COOH scaffolds present controllable porous structures ranging from nano- to micro-scale, and their mechanical strengths are comparable to that of trabecular bone. More importantly, the in vitro experiments show that the nanoporous surface is conducive to promoting cellular adhesion, and carboxyl groups can induce hydroxyapatite mineralization via electrostatic interaction. The in vivo experiments demonstrate that the PAEK-COOH scaffolds offer much better osseointegration without additional active ingredients, compared to that of PEEK. Therefore, this work will not only develop a promising candidate for bone tissue engineering, but provide a viable method to design PAEK biomaterials.

Abstract
Physiologically relevant electrical microenvironments play an indispensable role in manipulating bone metabolism. Although implanted biomaterials that simulate the electrical properties of natural tissues using conductive or piezoelectric materials have been introduced in the field of bone regeneration, the application of electret materials to provide stable and persistent electrical stimulation has rarely been studied in biomaterial design. In this study, a silicon dioxide electret-incorporated poly(dimethylsiloxane) (SiO2/PDMS) composite electroactive membrane was designed and fabricated to explore its bone regeneration efficacy. SiO2 electrets were homogeneously dispersed in the PDMS matrix, and sandwich-like composite membranes were fabricated using a facile layer-by-layer blade-coating method. Following the encapsulation, electret polarization was conducted to obtain the electreted composite membranes. The surface potential of the composite membrane could be adjusted to a bone-promotive biopotential by tuning the electret concentration, and the prepared membranes exhibited favorable electrical stability during an observation period of up to 42 days. In vitro biological experiments indicated that the electreted SiO2/PDMS membrane promoted cellular activity and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. In vivo, the electreted composite membrane remarkably facilitated bone regeneration through persistent endogenous electrical stimulation. These findings suggest that the electreted sandwich-like membranes, which maintain a stable and physiological electrical microenvironment, are promising candidates for enhancing bone regeneration.

Abstract
Natural tissues are composed of ordered architectural organizations of multiple tissue cells. The spatial distribution of cells is crucial for directing cellular behavior and maintaining tissue homeostasis and function. Herein, an artificial bone bioceramic scaffold with star-, Tai Chi-, or interlacing-shaped multicellular patterns is constructed. The "cross-talk" between mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and macrophages can be effectively manipulated by altering the spatial distribution of two kinds of cells in the scaffolds, thus achieving controllable modulation of the scaffold-mediated osteo-immune responses. Compared with other multicellular patterns, the Tai Chi pattern with a 2:1 ratio of MSCs to macrophages is more effective in activating anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages, improving MSCs osteogenic differentiation, and accelerating new bone formation in vivo. In brief, the Tai Chi pattern generates a more favorable osteo-immune environment for bone regeneration, exhibiting enhanced immunomodulation and osteogenesis, which may be associated with the activation of BMP-Smad, Oncostatin M (OSM), and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in MSCs mediated by macrophage-derived paracrine signaling mediators. The study suggests that the manipulation of cell distribution to improve tissue formation is a feasible approach that can offer new insights for the design of tissue-engineered bone substitutes with multicellular interactions.

Pearl-inspired graphene oxide-collagen microgel with multi-layer mineralization through microarray chips for bone defect repair. Mater Today Bio 2022; 15:100307. [PMID: 35706502 PMCID: PMC9189211 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2022.100307] [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: 03/16/2022] [Revised: 05/12/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Biomineralization of natural polymers in simulated body fluid (SBF) can significantly improve its biocompatibility, osteoconductivity, and osteoinductivity because of the hydroxyapatite (HAp) deposition. Nevertheless, the superficial HAp crystal deposition hamper the deep inorganic ions exchange in porous microgels, thus gradually leading to a nonuniform regeneration effect. Inspired by the pearl forming process, this article uses the microarray chips to fabricate the multi-layer mineralized graphene oxide (GO)-collagen (Col)-hydroxyapatite (HAp) microgel, denoted as MMGCH. These fabricated MMGCH microgels exhibit porous structure and uniform HAp distribution. Furthermore, the suitable microenvironment offered by microgel promotes the time-dependent proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of stem cells, which resulted in upregulated osteogenesis-related genes and proteins, such as alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, and collagen-1. Finally, the MMGCH microgels possess favorable bone regeneration capacities both in cranial bone defects and mandibular bone defects via providing a suitable microenvironment for host-derived cells to form new bone tissues. This work presents a biomimetic means aiming to achieve full-thickness and uniform HAp deposition in hydrogel for bone defect repair.

Mesh-like electrospun membrane loaded with atorvastatin facilitates cutaneous wound healing by promoting the paracrine function of mesenchymal stem cells. Stem Cell Res Ther 2022; 13:190. [PMID: 35526075 PMCID: PMC9080129 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-022-02865-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional electrospun membranes are promising dressings for promoting wound healing. However, their microstructure and drug loading capacity need further improvements. It is the first time to design a novel mesh-like electrospun fiber loaded with atorvastatin (ATV) and investigated its effects on paracrine secretion by bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and wound healing in vivo. METHODS We fabricated a mesh-like electrospun membrane using a copper mesh receiver. The physical properties of the membranes were evaluated by SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, tensile strength analysis, and contrast angle test. Drug release was measured by plotting concentration as a function of time. We tested the effects of conditioned media (CM) derived from BMSCs on endothelial cell migration and angiogenesis. We used these BMSCs and performed RT-PCR and ELISA to evaluate the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) genes and proteins, respectively. The involvement of FAK and AKT mechanotransduction pathways in the regulation of BMSC secretion by material surface topography was also investigated. Furthermore, we established a rat model of wound healing, applied ATV-loaded mesh-like membranes (PCL/MAT) seeded with BMSCs on wounds, and assessed their efficacy for promoting wound healing. RESULTS FTIR spectroscopy revealed successful ATV loading in PCL/MAT. Compared with random electrospun fibers (PCL/R) and mesh-like electrospun fibers without drug load (PCL/M), PCL/MAT induced maximum promotion of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) migration. In the PCL/MAT group, the cell sheet scratches were nearly closed after 24 h. However, the cell sheet scratches remained open in other treatments at the same time point. The PCL/MAT promoted angiogenesis and led to the generation of longer tubes than the other treatments. Finally, the PCL/MAT induced maximum gene expression and protein secretion of VEGF and b-FGF. As for material surface topography effect on BMSCs, FAK and AKT signaling pathways were shown to participate in the modulation of MSC morphology and its paracrine function. In vivo, PCL/MAT seeded with BMSCs significantly accelerated healing and improved neovascularization and collagen reconstruction in the wound area compared to the other treatments. CONCLUSIONS The mesh-like topography of fibrous scaffolds combined with ATV release creates a unique microenvironment that promotes paracrine secretion of BMSCs, thereby accelerating wound healing. Hence, drug-loaded mesh-like electrospun membranes may be highly efficacious for wound healing and as artificial skin. It is a promising approach to solve the traumatic skin defect and accelerate recovery, which is essential to developing functional materials for future regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The use of tissue engineering to restore and to build new bone tissue is under active research at present. The following review summarizes the latest studies and clinical trials related to the use of osteogenic cells, biomaterials, and scaffolds to regenerate bone defects in the human jaws. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) combined with scaffolds have provided a range of advantages not only to transport the target cells to their desired destination but also to support the early phases of the mineralization process. The mechanical, chemical, and physical properties of scaffolds have been evaluated as they affect the quantity of bone regeneration, particularly in the oral cavity. This review also highlighted the mechanisms underlying bone homeostasis, including the key transcription factors and signaling pathways responsible for regulating the differentiation of osteoblast lineage. Furthering understanding of the mechanisms of cellular signaling in skeletal remodeling with the use of mesenchymal stem cells and the proper scaffold properties are key-factors to enable the incorporation of new and effective treatment methods into clinical practice for bone tissue regeneration using BTE. Impact Statement The use of mesenchymal stem cells able to differentiate in osteoblast lineage for bone tissue engineering (BTE) remains a major challenge. Viable cells and signaling pathways play an essential role in bone repair and regeneration of critical size defects. Recent advances in scaffolds and biological factors such as growth factors (e.g., cytokines and hormones) controlling the osteogenic signaling cascade are now becoming new players affecting the osteogenic potential of cells. Such techniques will significantly impact the maxillofacial bone tissue replacement, repair, and regeneration for patients without having to rely on donor banks or other surgical sites.

Abstract
A challenge for bioprinting tissue constructs is enabling the viability and functionality of encapsulated cells. Rationally designed bioink that can create appropriate biophysical cues shows great promise for overcoming such challenges. Here, a nanoparticle-stabilized emulsion bioink for direct fabrication of porous tissue constructs by digital light processing based 3D bioprinting technology is introduced. The emulsion bioink is integrated by the mixture of aqueous dextran microdroplets and gelatin methacryloyl solution and is further rendered stable by β-lactoglobulin nanoparticles. After bioprinting, the printed tissue constructs create the macroporous structure via removal of dextran, thereby providing favorable biophysical cues to promote the viability, proliferation, and spreading of the encapsulated cells. Moreover, a trachea-shaped construct containing chondrocytes is bioprinted and implanted in vivo. The results demonstrate that the generated macroporous construct is of benefit to cartilage tissue rebuilding. This work offers an advanced bioink for the fabrication of living tissue constructs by activating the cell behaviors and functions in situ and can lead to the development of 3D bioprinting.

Abstract
Engineered small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are used as tools to enhance therapeutic efficacy. However, such application of sEVs is associated with several issues, including high costs and a high risk of tumorigenesis. Nanotopography has a greater influence on bone-related cell behaviors. However, whether nanotopography specifically mediate sEV content to perform particular biological functions remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that selective nanotopography may be used to sequentially mediate human bone mesenchymal stem cell (hBMSC) sEVs to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of hBMSCs-EVs for osteogenesis. We subjected sEVs harvested from hBMSCs cultured on polished titanium plates (Ti) or nanotopographical titanium plates (Ti4) after 7, 14, and 21 d for RNA sequencing, and we found that there was no significant difference in sEV-miRNA expression after 7 d. Differentially expressed osteogenic-related microRNAs were founded after 14 days, and KEGG analysis indicated that the main microRNAs were associated with osteogenesis-related pathways, such as TGF-beta, AMPK, and FoxO. A significant difference was found in sEV-miRNAs expression after 21 d. We loaded sEV secreted from hBMSCs cultured on Ti4 after 21 d on 3D-printed porous PEEK scaffolds with poly dopamine (PDA) and found that such scaffolds showed superior osteogenic ability after 6- and 12-weeks. Here, we demonstrate the alkali- and heat-treated nanotopography with the ability of stimulating osteogenic differentiation of hBMSC can induce the secretion of pro-osteogenesis sEV, and we also found that sEVs meditate osteogenesis through miRNA. Thus, whether nanotopography has the ability to regulate other contents of sEVs such as proteins for enhancing osteogenesis needs further research. These findings may help us use nanotopography to extract sEVs for other biomedical applications, including cancer therapy.

Abstract
Titanium implants are widely used in traumatology and various orthopedic fields. Titanium and other metallic-based implants have limited structural and functional integration into the body, which translates into progressive prosthesis instability and the need for new surgical interventions that have enormous social and economic impacts. To enhance the biocompatibility of titanium implants, numerous biofunctionalization strategies have been developed. However, the problem persists, as more than 70% of implant failures are due to aseptic loosening. In this study we addressed the problem of improving the physiological engraftability and acceptability of titanium-based implants by applying a robust and versatile functionalization method based on the covalent immobilization of extracellular matrix (ECM)-derived oligopeptides on Ti-6Al-4V surfaces treated by activated vapor silanization (AVS). The feasibility of this technique was evaluated with two oligopeptides of different structures and compositions. These oligopeptides were immobilized on Ti-6Al-4V substrates by a combination of AVS and N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride/N-hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) crosslinking chemistry. The immobilization was shown to be stable and resistant to chemical denaturing upon sodium dodecyl sulfate treatment. On Ti-6Al-4V surfaces both peptides increased the attachment, spreading, rearrangement and directional growth of mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells (MSC) with chondro- and osteo-regenerative capacities. We also found that this biofunctionalization method (AVS-EDC/NHS) increased the attachment capacity of an immortalized cell line of neural origin with poor adhesive properties, highlighting the versatility and robustness of this method in terms of potential oligopeptides that may be used, and cell lineages whose anchorage to the biomaterial may be enhanced. Collectively, this novel functionalization strategy can accelerate the development of advanced peptide-functionalized metallic surfaces, which, in combination with host or exogenously implanted stem cells, have the potential to positively affect the osteoregenerative and osteointegrative abilities of metallic-based prostheses.

Abstract
The three-dimensional (3D) printing technology combined with bone tissue engineering has become one of the major methods for mandibular reconstruction. However, the key factor retarding mandible reconstruction is the barrier of understanding and achieving the complex 3D gridwork formed by the trabeculae. This study innovatively constructed a low-temperature 3D printing silk fibroin/collagen/hydroxyapatite (SF/COL/HA) composite scaffold with a stable structure and remarkable biocompatibility. We designed three kinds of six-layer scaffolds with mixed fiber cross-angle structures (FCAS) of [0°/90°/0°/90°/0°/90°], [0°/45°/90°/135°/180°/225°] and [0°/30°/60°/90°/120°/150°]. Material properties of these scaffolds such as porosity, water absorption rate, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and compression performance were detected. Then, the MC3T3-E1 cells were seeded on these scaffolds and the adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation were investigated. To be more convincing, the same experiments were performed on another polycaprolactone/hydroxyapatite scaffold. The results suggested that the changes of FCAS affected the mechanical properties of 3D printed scaffolds and performance of seeded cells. Besides, the 90° FCAS significantly enhanced the compressive modulus in two groups and were more conducive to the cell proliferation and osteogenesis, which provided evidence for exploring the influence of FCAS on the properties of scaffolds and the application of two composite scaffolds in tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Vascularization is a key event and also still a challenge in tissue engineering. Many efforts have been devoted to the development of vascularization based on cells, growth factors, and porous scaffolds in the past decades. Among these efforts, the architecture features of pores in scaffolds played important roles for vascularization, which have attracted increasing attention. It has been known that the open macro pores in scaffolds could facilitate cell migration, nutrient, and oxygen diffusion, which then could promote new tissue formation and vascularization. The pore parameters are the important factors affecting cells response and vessel formation. Thus, this review will give an overview of the current advances in the effects of pore parameters on vascularization in tissue engineering, mainly including pore size, interconnectivity, pore size distribution, pore shape (channel structure), and the micro/nano-surface topography of pores.

Pharmacol Res 2021; 172:105851. [PMID: 34450314 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2021.105851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2021] [Revised: 08/06/2021] [Accepted: 08/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
The regeneration process of human bones is very complicated, the management and treatment of bone damage caused by diseases are the main problems faced by clinicians worldwide. It is known that cell-based stem cell therapy together with biomaterials is a fast-developing method of tissue regeneration. This review focuses on the different types and main characteristics of scaffolds and stem cells suitable for bone regeneration, and aims to provide a state-of-the-art description of the current treatment of common bone metabolism related diseases such as osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and osteosarcoma and the strategies based on stem cell biological scaffolds used in bone tissue engineering. This method may provide a new treatment option for the treatment of common bone metabolism-related diseases that cannot be cured by ordinary and routine applications. Three databases (PubMed, CNKI and Web of Science) search terms used to write this review are: "arthritis", "osteoporosis", "osteosarcoma", "bone tissue engineering", "mesenchymal stem cells", "materials", "bioactive scaffolds" and their combinations, and the most relevant studies are selected. As a conclusion, it needs to be emphasized that despite the encouraging results, further development is needed due to the need for more in-depth research, standardization of stem cell manufacturing processes, large-scale development of clinical methods for bone tissue engineering, and market regulatory approval. Although the research and application of tissue regeneration technology and stem cells are still in their infancy, the application prospect is broad and it is expected to solve the current clinical problems.

Comparison between Intra-Articular Injection of Infrapatellar Fat Pad (IPFP) Cell Concentrates and IPFP-Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) for Cartilage Defect Repair of the Knee Joint in Rabbits. Stem Cells Int 2021; 2021:9966966. [PMID: 34367294 PMCID: PMC8337123 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9966966] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2021] [Revised: 06/30/2021] [Accepted: 07/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising therapeutic method in regenerative medicine. Our previous research adopted a simple nonenzymatic strategy for the preparation of a new type of ready-to-use infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) cell concentrates. The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic efficacy of intra-articular (IA) injection of autologous IPFP cell concentrates and allogeneic IPFP-MSCs obtained from these concentrates in a rabbit articular cartilage defect model. IPFP-MSCs sprouting from the IPFP cell concentrates were characterized via flow cytometry as well as based on their potential for differentiation into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes. In the rabbit model, cartilage defects were created on the trochlear groove, followed by treatment with IPFP cell concentrates, IPFP-MSCs, or normal saline IA injection. Distal femur samples were evaluated at 6 and 12 weeks posttreatment via macroscopic observation and histological assessment based on the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) macroscopic scoring system as well as the ICRS visual histological assessment scale. The macroscopic score and histological score were significantly higher in the IPFP-MSC group compared to the IPFP cell concentrate group at 12 weeks. Further, both treatment groups had higher scores compared to the normal saline group. In comparison to the latter, the groups treated with IPFP-MSCs and IPFP cell concentrates showed considerably better cartilage regeneration. Overall, IPFP-MSCs represent an effective therapeutic strategy for stimulating articular cartilage regeneration. Further, due to the simple, cost-effective, nonenzymatic, and safe preparation process, IPFP cell concentrates may represent an effective alternative to stem cell-based therapy in the clinic.
