Abstract
Biomaterials with dual functions of osteoimmunomodulation and bone repair are very promising in the field of orthopedic materials. For this purpose, we prepared copper-based carbon dots (CuCDs) and doped them into oxychondroitin sulfate/poly-acrylamide hydrogel (OPAM) to obtain a hybrid hydrogel (CuCDs/OPAM). We evaluated its osteoimmunomodulatory and bone repair properties in vitro and in vivo. The obtained CuCDs/OPAM exhibited good rBMSCs-cytocompatibility and anti-inflammatory properties in vitro. It also could effectively promote rBMSCs differentiation and the expression of osteogenic differentiation factors from rBMSCs under an inflammatory environment. Moreover, CuCDs/OPAM could induce macrophage phenotype switching (from M1-type macrophages to M2-type macrophages) in vivo, which is beneficial for anti-inflammatory action and presents good osteoimmunomodulation capability to induce a bone immune microenvironment to promote the differentiation of rBMSCs. In conclusion, CuCDs/OPAM hydrogel has dual functions of osteoimmunomodulatory and bone repair and is a promising bone filling and repair material.

Abstract
Polysaccharides constitute over 90% of the carbohydrate mass in nature, which makes them a promising feedstock for manufacturing sustainable materials. Polysaccharide particles (PSPs) are used as effective scavengers, carriers of chemical and biological cargos, and building blocks for the fabrication of macroscopic materials. The biocompatibility and degradability of PSPs are advantageous for their uses as biomaterials with more environmental friendliness. This review highlights the progresses in PSP applications as advanced functional materials, by describing PSP extraction, preparation, and surface functionalization with a variety of functional groups, polymers, nanoparticles, and biologically active species. This review also outlines the fabrication of PSP-derived macroscopic materials, as well as their applications in soft robotics, sensing, scavenging, water harvesting, drug delivery, and bioengineering. The paper is concluded with an outlook providing perspectives in the development and applications of PSP-derived materials.

Abstract
Lack of horizontal and vertical bone at the site of an implant can lead to significant clinical problems that need to be addressed before implant treatment can take place. Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a commonly used surgical procedure that employs a barrier membrane to encourage the growth of new bone tissue in areas where bone has been lost due to injury or disease. It is a promising approach to achieve desired repair in bone tissue and is widely accepted and used in approximately 40% of patients with bone defects. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive examination of recent advances in resorbable membranes for GBR including natural materials such as chitosan, collagen, silk fibroin, along with synthetic materials such as polyglycolic acid (PGA), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and their copolymers. In addition, the properties of these materials including foreign body reaction, mechanical stability, antibacterial property, and growth factor delivery performance will be compared and discussed. Finally, future directions for resorbable membrane development and potential clinical applications will be highlighted.

Abstract
Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are naturally aluminosilicate clay minerals that have the benefits of large surface areas, high mechanical properties, easy functionalization, and high biocompatibility, HNTs have been developed as multifunctional nanoplatforms for various bioapplications. Although some reviews have summarized the properties and bioapplications of HNTs, it remains unclear how to functionalize the modifications of HNTs for their personalized bioapplications. In this review, based on the physicochemical properties of HNTs, we summarized the methods of functionalized modifications (surface modification and structure modification) on HNTs. Also, we highlighted their personalized bioapplications (anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, cancer theranostics, bone regenerative, and biosensing) by stressing on the main roles of HNTs. Finally, we provide perspectives on the future of functionalized modifications of HNTs for docking specific biological applications.

Abstract
Being a bioactive material, hydroxyapatite (HAp) is regarded as one of the most attractive ceramic biomaterials for bone and hard-tissue replacement and regeneration. Despite its substantial biocompatibility, osteoconductivity, and compositional similarity to that of bone, the employment of HAp is still limited in orthopedic applications due to its poor mechanical (low fracture toughness and bending strength) and antibacterial properties. These significant challenges lead to the notion of developing novel HAp-based composites via different fabrication routes. HAp, when efficaciously combined with functionally graded materials and antibacterial agents, like Ag, ZnO, Co, etc., form composites that render remarkable crack resistance and toughening, as well as enhance its bactericidal efficacy. The addition of different materials and a fabrication method, like 3D printing, greatly influence the porosity of the structure and, in turn, control cell adhesion, thereby enabling biological fixation of the material. This article encompasses an elaborate discussion on different multifunctional HAp composites developed for orthopedic applications with particular emphasis on the incorporation of functionally graded materials and antibacterial agents. The influence of 3D printing on the fabrication of HAp-based scaffolds, and the different in vitro and in vivo studies conducted on these, have all been included here. Furthermore, the present review not only provides insights and broad understanding by elucidating recent advancements toward 4D printing but also directs the reader to future research directions in design and application of HAp-based composite coatings and scaffolds.

Abstract
Currently, many researches have developed several strategies to design the surface structures of hydroxyapatite (HA), and have proved that the surface structures are pivotal in guiding the adhesion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) as well as subsequent cellular behaviours. Most of these strategies, such as altering roughness and constructing surface patterning of HA, involve the construction of geometric topographies at the micro/nanoscale. However, besides geometric topographies, crystal defects are also important characteristics of surface structures and would alter many local physicochemical properties, which is critical for contact between cells and bioceramic surfaces. For the practical applications of crystal defects, a major hindrance is that crystal defects are usually unstable and easily eliminated during crystallization, which limits the large-scale fabrication of materials with crystal defects. In this work, given that stepped structures contain massive stable crystal defects on their step edges and kinks, we proposed a feasible and efficient method to fabricate HA dishes with stepped structures on their surfaces. First, plate-like HA mesocrystals were prepared from CaHPO4via topotactic transformation, and were shaped into HA dishes by vacuum-filtration. Then, a sintering process was applied to facilitate the formation of stepped structures on the surfaces. We demonstrated that the generation of stepped structures could restrict the adhesion of BMSCs and showed the restriction effect is highly correlated with the density of exposed stepped structures. This phenomenon is interesting and the construction of a cell adhesion model is robust and easy, the underlying mechanisms of which deserve further exploration. Furthermore, constructing stepped structures on surfaces may be a new useful strategy to regulate cell adhesion and could also cooperate with other methods that do not need change in the surface crystal structure. Stepped structures largely exposed on surfaces of HA significantly restrict the adhesion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.![]()

Abstract
Dental implant failure remains a prevalent problem around the globe. The integration of implants at the interface of soft and hard tissues is complex and susceptible to instability and infections. Modifications to the surface of titanium implants have been developed to improve the performance, yet insufficient integration and biofilm formation remain major problems. Introducing nanostructures on the surface to augment the implant-tissue contact holds promise for facilitated implant integration; however, current coating processes are limited in their versatility or costs. We present a highly modular single-step approach to produce multicomponent porous bioactive nanostructured coatings on implants. Inorganic nanoparticle building blocks with complex compositions and architectures are synthesized in situ and deposited on the implants in a single step using scalable liquid-feed flame spray pyrolysis. We present hybrid coatings based on ceria and bioglass, which render the implant surfaces superhydrophilic, promote cell adhesion, and exhibit antimicrobial properties. By modifications to the bioglass/ceria nanohybrid composition and architecture that prevent biomineralization, the coating can instead be tailored toward soft tissue healing. The one-step synthesis of nano-architected tissue-specific coatings has great potential in dental implantology and beyond.

Abstract
Biofilms are dense bacterial colonies that may adhere to the surfaces of medical devices and are major contributors to infections. These colonies are characterized by a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). Bacterial biofilms are difficult to treat with the commonly used antibiotics partially because of their poor diffusion through the EPS and therefore require new targeted strategies to effectively fight them. Biofilms may produce an acidic microenvironment which can be exploited to design such targeted treatment strategies. However, there is currently a lack of high-throughput ways to determine the acidity of biofilms at their interface with the medical device. Here, a novel all-inorganic pH responsive system is developed from luminescent carbonated hydroxyapatite nanoparticles doped with Eu3+ ions which can determine the biofilm acidity fluorometrically due to carbonate removal in acidic environments that directly affects the nanoparticle luminescence. The pH responsive nanoparticles are in-situ deposited during their production onto substrates on which a variety of clinically-relevant biofilms are grown. The acidity of their interfacial (micro)environment depends on the bacterial species and strain even when differences in biofilm biomass are considered.

Abstract
In this paper, a new formulation of biodegradable and bioresorbable chitosan-based hydrogel for controlled drug release was investigated. A chitosan-dendrimer-hydroxyapatite hydrogel, obtained by covalently grafting chitosan powder with an hyperbranched PAMAM dendrimer followed by in-situ precipitation of hydroxyapatite and gelification, was synthesized and characterized by FTIR, NMR, TGA, XRD and rheological studies. The hydrogels have been also doped with an anti-inflammatory drug (ketoprofen) in order to investigate their drug release properties. Chemical and chemical-physical characterizations confirmed the successful covalent functionalization of chitosan with PAMAM and the synthesis of nanostructured hydroxyapatite. The developed hydrogel made it possible to obtain an innovative system with tunable rheological and drug-releasing properties relative to the well-known formulation containing chitosan and hydroxyapatite powder. The developed hydrogel showed different rheological and drug-releasing properties of chitosan matrix mixed with hydroxyapatite as a function of dendrimer molecular weight; therefore, the chitosan-dendrimer-hydroxyapatite hydrogel can couple the well-known osteoconductive properties of hydroxyapatite with the drug-release behavior and good processability of chitosan-dendrimer hydrogels, opening new approaches in the field of tissue engineering based on biopolymeric scaffolds.

Abstract
The bio-engineering technologies of medical devices through nano-structuring and coating was recently proposed to improve biocompatibility and to reduce microbial adhesion in the prevention of implantable device-related infections. Our aim was to evaluate the ability of new nano-structured and coated materials to prevent the adhesion and biofilm formation, according to the American Standard Test Method ASTM-E2647-13. The materials composition was determined by X-ray Fluorescence and Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy. Silver release was evaluated by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry analysis. The gene expression levels of the Quorum Sensing Las and Rhl system were evaluated by the ΔΔCt method. The Log bacterial density (Log CFU/cm2) on TiAl6V4 was 4.41 ± 0.76 and 4.63 ± 1.01 on TiAl6V4-AgNPs compared to 2.57 ± 0.70 on CoCr and 2.73 ± 0.61 on CoCr-AgNPs (P < 0.0001, A.N.O.V.A.- one way test). The silver release was found to be equal to 17.8 ± 0.2 µg/L after the batch phase and 1.3 ± 0.1 µg/L during continuous flow. The rhlR gene resulted in a 2.70-fold increased expression in biofilm growth on the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) coating. In conclusion, CoCr showed a greater ability to reduce microbial adhesion, independently of the AgNPs coating. The silver release resulted in promoting the up-regulation of the Rhl system. Further investigation should be conducted to optimize the effectiveness of the coating.

Abstract
Bioabsorbable materials have received increasing attention as innovative systems for the development of osteoconductive biomaterials for bone tissue engineering. In this paper, chitosan-based composites were synthesized adding hydroxyapatite and/or magnetite in a chitosan matrix by in situ precipitation technique. Composites were characterized by optical and electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analyses (TGA), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and in vitro cell culture studies. Hydroxyapatite and magnetite were found to be homogeneously dispersed in the chitosan matrix and the composites showed superior biocompatibility and the ability to support cell attachment and proliferation; in particular, the chitosan/hydroxyapatite/magnetite composite (CS/HA/MGN) demonstrated superior bioactivity with respect to pure chitosan (CS) and to the chitosan/hydroxyapatite (CS/HA) scaffolds.
