Abstract
Effective tissue regeneration and immune responses are essential for the success of biomaterial implantation. Although the interaction between synthetic materials and biological systems is well-recognized, the role of surface topographical cues in regulating the local osteoimmune microenvironment─specifically, their impact on host tissue and immune cells, and their dynamic interactions─remains underexplored. This study addresses this gap by investigating the impact of surface topography on osteogenesis and immunomodulation. We fabricated MXene/hydroxyapatite (HAP)-coated surfaces with controlled 2.5D nano-, submicro-, and microscale topographical patterns using our custom bottom-up patterning method. These engineered surfaces were employed to assess the behavior of osteoblast precursor cells and macrophage polarization. Our results demonstrate that MXene/HAP-coated surfaces with microscale crumpled topography significantly influence osteogenic activity and macrophage polarization: these surfaces notably enhanced osteoblast precursor cell spreading, proliferation, and differentiation and facilitated a shift in macrophages toward an anti-inflammatory, prohealing M2 phenotype. The observed cell responses indicate that the physical cues from the crumpled topographies, combined with the chemical cues from the MXene/HAP coatings, synergistically create a favorable osteoimmune microenvironment. This study presents the first evidence of employing MXene/HAP-multilayer coated surfaces with finely crumpled topography to concurrently facilitate osteogenesis and immunomodulation for improved implant-to-tissue integration. The tunable topographic patterns of these coatings coupled with a facile and scalable fabrication process make them widely applicable for various biomedical purposes. Our results highlight the potential of these multilayer coatings with controlled topography to improve the in vivo performance and fate of implants by modulating the host response at the material interface.

Plasma membrane nanodeformations promote actin polymerization through CIP4/CDC42 recruitment and regulate type II IFN signaling. SCIENCE ADVANCES 2023; 9:eade1660.

Abstract
In their environment, cells must cope with mechanical stresses constantly. Among these, nanoscale deformations of plasma membrane induced by substrate nanotopography are now largely accepted as a biophysical stimulus influencing cell behavior and function. However, the mechanotransduction cascades involved and their precise molecular effects on cellular physiology are still poorly understood. Here, using homemade fluorescent nanostructured cell culture surfaces, we explored the role of Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain proteins as mechanosensors of plasma membrane geometry. Our data reveal that distinct subsets of BAR proteins bind to plasma membrane deformations in a membrane curvature radius-dependent manner. Furthermore, we show that membrane curvature promotes the formation of dynamic actin structures mediated by the Rho GTPase CDC42, the F-BAR protein CIP4, and the presence of PI(4,5)P2. In addition, these actin-enriched nanodomains can serve as platforms to regulate receptor signaling as they appear to contain interferon-γ receptor (IFNγ-R) and to lead to the partial inhibition of IFNγ-induced JAK/STAT signaling.

Abstract
Previous studies have shown hydrophilic/hydrophobic implant surfaces stimulate/hinder osseointegration. An analogous concept was applied here using common biological functional groups on a model surface to promote oral keratinocytes (OKs) proliferation and hemidesmosomes (HD) to extend implant lifespans through increased soft tissue attachment. However, it is unclear what physicochemistry stimulates HDs. Thus, common biological functional groups (NH2 , OH, and CH3 ) were functionalized on glass using silanization. Non-functionalized plasma-cleaned glass and H silanization were controls. Surface modifications were confirmed with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and water contact angle. The amount of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and fibrinogen, and BSA thickness, were assessed to understand how adsorbed protein properties were influenced by physicochemistry and may influence HDs. OKs proliferation was measured, and HDs were quantified with immunofluorescence for collagen XVII and integrin β4. Plasma-cleaned surfaces were the most hydrophilic group overall, while CH3 was the most hydrophobic and OH was the most hydrophilic among functionalized groups. Modification with the OH chemical group showed the highest OKs proliferation and HD expression. The OKs response on OH surfaces appeared to not correlate to the amount or thickness of adsorbed model proteins. These results reveal relevant surface physicochemical features to favor HDs and improve implant soft tissue attachment.

Abstract
Host reactions following implantation of biomaterials, especially the macrophages' responses could significantly affect the wound healing process. Therefore, it is meaningful to develop immunostimulatory active wound dressing to accelerate wound healing. In this study, lentinan (LNT) was esterified with different carboxylic acids, and the bilayer nanofibrous membrane (BilayerM) based on the esterified LNT was designed. BilayerM exhibited good water absorption, red blood cells (RBC), platelets, and fibronectin adhesion abilities. The ELISA results indicated that BilayerM stimulated macrophages to secrete pro-inflammatory and pro-regenerative cytokines. Moreover, cell migration results showed that BilayerM promoted the migration and proliferation of NIH3T3 and HUVECs. The wound healing efficacy studies demonstrated that BilayerM significantly accelerated the wound healing rate in a full-thickness skin defect model. Therefore, these results indicate that this bioactive dressing is a hopeful candidate for clinical treatment of cutaneous wounds.

Abstract
Nanotopography presents an effective physical approach for biomaterial cell manipulation mediated through material-extracellular matrix interactions. The extracellular matrix that exists in the cellular microenvironment is crucial for guiding cell behaviours, such as determination of integrin ligation and interaction with growth factors. These interactions with the extracellular matrix regulate downstream mechanotransductive pathways, such as rearrangements in the cytoskeleton and activation of signal cascades. Protein adsorption onto nanotopography strongly influences the conformation and distribution density of extracellular matrix and, therefore, subsequent cell responses. In this review, we first discuss the interactive mechanisms of protein physical adsorption on nanotopography. Secondly, we summarise advances in creating nanotopographical features to instruct desired cell behaviours. Lastly, we focus on the cellular mechanotransductive pathways initiated by nanotopography. This review provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art designs of nanotopography aiming to provide better biomedical materials for the future. A comprehensive overview of nanotopography fabrication, and nanotopography regulates various cell behaviours. The interactive physical adsorption between nanotopography and extracellular matrix. Nanotopography initiates the cellular mechanotransductive pathways and downstream signalling cascades.

Abstract
Nanotopography is an effective method to regulate cells' behaviors to improve Ti orthopaedic implants' in vivo performance. However, the mechanism underlying cellular matrix-nanotopography interactions that allows the modulation of cell adhesion has remained elusive. In this study, we have developed novel nanotopographic features on Ti substrates and studied human osteoblast (HOb) adhesion on nanotopographies to reveal the interactive mechanism regulating cell adhesion and spreading. Through nanoflat, nanoconvex, and nanoconcave TiO2 nanotopographies, the evolution of Coulomb's force between the extracellular matrix and nanotopographies has been estimated and comparatively analyzed, along with the assessment of cellular responses of HOb. We show that HObs exhibited greater adhesion and spreading on nanoconvex surfaces where they formed super matured focal adhesions and an ordered actin cytoskeleton. It also demonstrated that Coulomb's force on nanoconvex features exhibits a more intense and concentrated evolution than that of nanoconcave features, which may result in a high dense distribution of fibronectin. Thus, this work is meaningful for novel Ti-based orthopaedic implants' surface designs for enhancing their in vivo performance.

Abstract
Biochemical signals, such as growth factors, cytokines, and transcription factors are known to play a crucial role in regulating a variety of cellular activities as well as maintaining the normal function of different tissues and organs. If the biochemical signals are assumed to be one side of the coin, the other side comprises biophysical cues. There is growing evidence showing that biophysical signals, and in particular mechanical cues, also play an important role in different stages of human life ranging from morphogenesis during embryonic development to maturation and maintenance of tissue and organ function throughout life. In order to investigate how mechanical signals influence cell and tissue function, tremendous efforts have been devoted to fabricating various materials and devices for delivering mechanical stimuli to cells and tissues. Here, an overview of the current state of the art in the design and development of such materials and devices is provided, with a focus on their design principles, and challenges and perspectives for future research directions are highlighted.

Abstract
Mechanistic understanding of fibronectin (FN) adsorption which determines cell adhesion on cell-implant interfaces is significant for improving the osteoconduction and soft-tissue healing of implants. Here, it is shown that the adsorption behavior of FN on the titanium oxide surface (TiO2 ) is highly relative to its Pro-His-Ser-Arg-Asn (PHSRN) peptide. FN lacking PHSRN fails to bind to surfaces, resulting in inhibited cell adhesion and spreading. Molecular dynamics simulation shows higher affinity and greater adsorption energy of PHSRN peptide with TiO2 surface due to the stronger hydrogen bonds formed by the serine and arginine residues with O ion of the substrate. Finally, by increasing O content in TiO2 surfaces through O ion-beam implantation, improving the cell adhesion, cell differentiation, and the subsequent biomineralization on titanium implant is realized. This study reveals the vital role of PHSRN in FN-mediated cell adhesion on implant surfaces, providing a promising new target for further tissue integration and implant success.

Abstract
Bone plays critical roles in support, protection, movement, and metabolism. Although bone has an innate capacity for regeneration, this capacity is limited, and many bone injuries and diseases require intervention. Biomaterials are a critical component of many treatments to restore bone function and include non-resorbable implants to augment bone and resorbable materials to guide regeneration. Biomaterials can vary considerably in their biocompatibility and bioactivity, which are functions of specific material parameters. The success of biomaterials in bone augmentation and regeneration is based on their effects on the function of bone cells. Such functions include adhesion, migration, inflammation, proliferation, communication, differentiation, resorption, and vascularization. This review will focus on how different material parameters can enhance bone cell function both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Ion beam irradiation of solid surfaces may result in the self-organized formation of well-defined topographic nanopatterns. Depending on the irradiation conditions and the material properties, isotropic or anisotropic patterns of differently shaped features may be obtained. Most intriguingly, the periodicities of these patterns can be adjusted in the range between less than twenty and several hundred nanometers, which covers the dimensions of many cellular and extracellular features. However, even though ion beam nanopatterning has been studied for several decades and is nowadays widely employed in the fabrication of functional surfaces, it has found its way into the biomaterials field only recently. This review provides a brief overview of the basics of ion beam nanopatterning, emphasizes aspects of particular relevance for biomaterials applications, and summarizes a number of recent studies that investigated the effects of such nanopatterned surfaces on the adsorption of biomolecules and the response of adhering cells. Finally, promising future directions and potential translational challenges are identified.

Abstract
Tendon being a hypocellular, low vascularized tissue often requires assistance for restoration after complete tear. Tendon tissue engineering aims in the development of suitable scaffold that could support the regeneration of tendon after damage. The success of such scaffolds is dependent on its integration with the native tissue which in turn is influenced by the cell-material interaction. In this work aligned poly(ε-caprolactone)/collagen (PCL/collagen) multiscale fibers were developed and plasma treatment using argon, nitrogen and its combination was accessed for inducing tenogenic differentiation in mesenchymal stem cells. The developed fibers mimicked tendon extracellular matrix (ECM) which upon plasma treatment maintained moderate hydrophilicity. Oxygen and nitrogen containing groups were observed to be incorporated after argon and nitrogen treatment respectively. Statistically significant (p < 0.001) enhancement was observed in average and root mean square (RMS) roughness after plasma treatment with the maximum in argon treated fibers. Vitronectin was competitively (statistically significant, p < 0.05) adsorbed after argon and combination treatment whereas nitrogen treatment led to the competitive adsorption of fibronectin (statistically significant, p < 0.05). Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) showed enhanced proliferation and attachment on plasma treated fibers. Increased porosity due to the presence of sacrificial collagen nanofibers improved cell infiltration which was further enhanced upon plasma treatment. RhoA activation was observed (statistically significant, p < 0.05) on aligned PCL/collagen multiscale fibers and PCL microfibers, which proved its impact on tenogenic differentiation. Further enhancement in rhoA expression was observed on argon (p < 0.01) and combination plasma (p < 0.05) treated fibers. Tenogenic differentiation of hMSCs was enhanced (statistically significant) on argon plasma treated aligned fibers which was confirmed by the expression of scleraxis, mohawk (early markers) and tenomodulin (late marker) at protein level and mohawk, collagen I, collagen III (early markers), thrombospondin 4 and tenascin C (late markers) at gene level. Thus argon plasma treatment on aligned fibers is an effective method to induce tenogenesis even in non-tenogenic media.

Abstract
The effects that solid–liquid interfaces exert on the aggregation of proteins and peptides are of high relevance for various fields of basic and applied research, ranging from molecular biology and biomedicine to nanotechnology. While the influence of surface chemistry has received a lot of attention in this context, the role of surface topography has mostly been neglected so far. In this work, therefore, we investigate the aggregation of the type 2 diabetes-associated peptide hormone hIAPP in contact with flat and nanopatterned silicon oxide surfaces. The nanopatterned surfaces are produced by ion beam irradiation, resulting in well-defined anisotropic ripple patterns with heights and periodicities of about 1.5 and 30 nm, respectively. Using time-lapse atomic force microscopy, the morphology of the hIAPP aggregates is characterized quantitatively. Aggregation results in both amorphous aggregates and amyloid fibrils, with the presence of the nanopatterns leading to retarded fibrillization and stronger amorphous aggregation. This is attributed to structural differences in the amorphous aggregates formed at the nanopatterned surface, which result in a lower propensity for nucleating amyloid fibrillization. Our results demonstrate that nanoscale surface topography may modulate peptide and protein aggregation pathways in complex and intricate ways.

Abstract
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using TiO2 nanoparticles has become an important alternative treatment for different types of cancer due to their high photocatalytic activity and high absorption of UV-A light. To potentiate this treatment, we have coated commercial glass plates with TiO2 nanoparticles prepared by the sol-gel method (TiO2 -m), which exhibit a remarkable selectivity for the irreversible trapping of cancer cells. The physicochemical properties of the deposited TiO2 -m nanoparticle coatings have been characterized by a number of complementary surface-analytical techniques and their interaction with leukemia and healthy blood cells were investigated. Scanning electron and atomic force microscopy verify the formation of a compact layer of TiO2 -m nanoparticles. The particles are predominantly in the anatase phase and have hydroxyl-terminated surfaces as revealed by Raman, X-ray photoelectron, and infrared spectroscopy, as well as X-ray diffraction. We find that lymphoblastic leukemia cells adhere to the TiO2 -m coating and undergo amoeboid-like migration, whereas lymphocytic cells show distinctly weaker interactions with the coating. This evidences the potential of this nanomaterial coating to selectively trap cancer cells and renders it a promising candidate for the development of future prototypes of PDT devices for the treatment of leukemia and other types of cancers with non-adherent cells.

Abstract
Poor osteogenesis and implant-associated infection are the two leading causes of failure for dental and orthopedic implants. Surface design with enhanced osteogenesis often fails in antibacterial activity, or vice versa. Herein, a surface design strategy, which overcomes this trade-off via the synergistic effects of topographical micropatterning and a bilayered nanostructured metallic thin film is presented. A specific microgrooved pattern is fabricated on the titanium surface, followed by sequential deposition of a nanostructured copper (Cu)-containing tantalum (Ta) (TaCu) layer and a pure Ta cap layer. The microgrooved patterns coupled with the nanorough Ta cap layer shows strong contact guidance to preosteoblasts and significantly enhances the osteogenic differentiation in vitro, while the controlled local sustained release of Cu ions is responsible for high antibacterial activity. Importantly, rat calvarial defect models in vivo further confirm that the synergy of microgrooved patterns and the Ta|TaCu bilayered thin film on titanium surface could effectively promote bone regeneration. The present effective and versatile surface design strategy provides significant insight into intelligent surface engineering that can control biological response at the site of healing in dental and orthopedic implants.

Mechanistic insights into the adsorption and bioactivity of fibronectin on surfaces with varying chemistries by a combination of experimental strategies and molecular simulations. Bioact Mater 2021; 6:3125-3135. [PMID: 33778193 PMCID: PMC7960943 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2021.02.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2020] [Revised: 02/02/2021] [Accepted: 02/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Fibronectin (Fn) is significant to the performance of biomaterials, and the chemistry of biomaterial surface play important roles in Fn adsorption and subsequent cell behavior. However, the "molecular scale" mechanism is still unclear. Herein, we combined experimental strategies with molecular simulations to solve this problem. We prepared self-assembled monolayers with varying chemistries, i.e., SAMs-CH3, SAMs-NH2, SAMs-COOH and SAMs-OH, and characterized Fn adsorption and cell behaviors on them. Next, Monte Carlo method and all-atom molecular dynamics simulations were employed to reveal the orientation/conformation of Fn on surfaces. We found that SAMs-CH3 strongly adsorbed Fn via hydrophobic interactions, but show poor bioactivity as the low exposure of RGD/PHSRN motifs and the deformation of Fn. SAMs-NH2 and SAMs-COOH could adsorb Fn efficiently via vdW interactions, electrostatic interactions, hydrogen bonds and salt bridges. Fn exhibited excellent bioactivity for cell adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation as high exposure of bioactive motifs on SAMs-NH2, or as the activation of other inferior cell-binding motifs on SAMs-COOH. SAMs-OH showed poor Fn adsorption as the water film. However, the adsorbed Fn displayed non-negligible bioactivity due to high exposure of PHSRN motif and large degree of protein flexibility. We believe that the revealed mechanism presents great potential to rationally design Fn-activating biomaterials.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells from adipose tissue (AD-MSCs) exhibit favorable clinical traits for autologous transplantation and can develop 'Schwann-like' phenotypes (sAD-MSCs) to improve peripheral nerve regeneration, where severe injuries yield insufficient recovery. However, sAD-MSCs regress without biochemical stimulation and detach from conduits under unfavorable transplant conditions, negating their paracrine effects. Graphene-derived materials support AD-MSC attachment, regulating cell adhesion and function through physiochemistry and topography. Graphene oxide (GO) is a suitable substrate for human sAD-MSCs incubation toward severe peripheral nerve injuries by evaluating transcriptome changes, neurotrophic factor expression over a 7-days period, and cell viability in apoptotic conditions is reported. Transcriptome changes from GO incubation across four patients are minor compared to biological variance. Nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) gene expression is unchanged from sAD-MSCs on GO substrates, but NGF and GDNF protein secretion increase at day 3 and 7. Secretome changes do not improve dorsal root ganglia neuron axon regeneration in conditioned media culture models. Fewer sAD-MSCs detach from GO substrates compared to glass following phosphate buffer saline exposure, which simulates apoptotic conditions. Overall, GO substrates are compatible with sAD-MSC primed for peripheral nerve regeneration strategies and protect the cell population in harsh environments.

Abstract
Owing to the poor bioactivity of microarc oxidation (MAO) coating and the rapid activation ability of the microwave hydrothermal (MH) technique, MH treatment was applied to optimize the in vivo interface status between MAO-treated titanium and bone. In this study, consequently, new outermost layers were prepared using hydroxyapatite (HA) nanorods, HA submicron pillars or sodium titanate nanosheets. The results revealed that the NaOH concentration significantly influenced the surface structure and phase constitution of the MAO samples. Moreover, on enhancing the NaOH concentration, the number of HA phases was decreased. Further, the influence of the NaOH concentration on the interfacial bonding strength was insignificant for concentrations ≤0.5 mol L−1. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis showed that the induction of apatite was accompanied by the dissolution of the HA crystals and there was excellent crystallographic matching with the HA crystals. The in vitro and in vivo analyses revealed that the MH-treated MAO sample with the HA nanorods possessed superior apatite-formation ability and osseointegration, including a small amount of soft tissue and optimal bone–implant interfacial bonding force, thus signifying strong potential for the optimization of the bone–implant interfacial status. In this work, the micro/nano scale structures of HA nanorods integrated on a titanium were prepared using MAO and MH treatment. The in vivo results indicate that HA crystals play a crucial role in the improvement of the osseointegration.![]()

Protein Adsorption at Nanorough Titanium Oxide Surfaces: The Importance of Surface Statistical Parameters beyond Surface Roughness. NANOMATERIALS 2021; 11:nano11020357.

Abstract
The nanoscale surface topography of biomaterials can have strong effects on protein adsorption. While there are numerous surface statistical parameters for the characterization of nanorough surfaces, none of them alone provides a complete description of surface morphology. Herein, a selection of nanorough titanium oxide surfaces has been fabricated with root-mean-square roughness (Sq) values below 2.7 nm but very different surface morphologies. The adsorption of the proteins myoglobin (MGB), bovine serum albumin (BSA), and thyroglobulin (TGL) at these surfaces was investigated in situ by ellipsometry to assess the importance of six of the most common surface statistical parameters. For BSA adsorption, both protein film thickness and time constant of adsorption were found to scale linearly with Sq s. For TGL, however, the same adsorption characteristics depend linearly on the surface skewness (Ssk), which we attribute to the rather extreme size of this protein. Finally, a mixed behavior is observed for MGB adsorption, showing different linear correlations with Sq and Ssk. These results demonstrate the importance of a thorough morphological characterization of the surfaces employed in protein adsorption and possibly also cell adhesion studies.

Abstract
The ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) represents a serious threat to the health of millions of people. Respiratory viruses such as SARS‐CoV‐2 can be transmitted via airborne and fomite routes. The latter requires virion adsorption at abiotic surfaces and most likely involves the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein subunit 1 (S1), which is the outermost point of its envelope. Understanding S1 spike protein interaction with fomite surfaces thus represents an important milestone on the road to fighting the spread of COVID‐19. Herein, high‐speed atomic force microscopy (HS‐AFM) is used to monitor the adsorption of the SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein S1 at Al2O3(0001) and TiO2(100) surfaces in situ. While the single‐crystalline oxide substrates are chosen to model the native surface oxides of Al‐ and Ti‐based fomites, adsorption is studied in electrolytes that mimic the pH and major ionic components of mucosal secretions and saliva, respectively. Quantitative analysis of the obtained HS‐AFM images indicates that S1 spike protein adsorption at these surfaces is mostly governed by electrostatic interactions with possible contributions from van der Waals interactions. It thus proceeds more rapidly at the TiO2(100) than at the Al2O3(0001) surface.

Abstract
Nanostructured materials such as nanoparticles and nanoporous materials strongly affect cell behaviors such as cell viability. Because cellular uptake of nanoporous materials does not occur, mechanisms for the effects of nanoporous materials on cells are different from those of nanoparticles. The effects of nanoporous materials on cells are thought to result from large conformational changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) induced by the nanoporous materials, although the mechanotransduction and the critical focal adhesion cluster size also have an effect on the cell response. However, we show that the adhesion of mesenchymal stem cells to a gold surface is reduced for nanoporous gold (NPG), despite the conformational changes in collagen induced by NPG being below the detection limits of the experimental analyses. The adsorption dynamics of collagen on NPG are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations to determine the origin of the reduced cell adhesion to NPG. The adsorption energy of collagen on NPG is lower than that on flat gold (FG) despite there being little difference between the global conformation of collagen segments adsorbed on NPG compared with FG. This finding is related to the surface strain of NPG and the limited movement of collagen amino acids owing to interchain hydrogen bonds. The results obtained in this study provide new insight into the interactions between nanostructured materials and the ECM.

Abstract
As traditional root canal obturation leads to the loss of the biological activity of the tooth, it is necessary to develop a material that promotes the regeneration of dental tissue. However, this remains a challenging task. Our study aims to construct a mineralized material to support the proliferation and differentiation of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs), and to explore a new strategy for the treatment of pulp tissue necrosis. Mineralized keratin (M-keratin), defined as keratin that has been mineralized in simulated body fluid, was first harvested to construct the root canal filling material. Characterizations indicated that new substances or components were formed on the surface of keratin particles after mineralization, and the morphology of the keratin was changed. M-keratin promoted the growth, proliferation, and differentiation of DPSCs. After cultivation with M-keratin, DPSCs exhibited more extracellular matrix proteins interacting with the culture interface, the number of these cells increased significantly, and the 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl-]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide values of cells in the experimental group also increased. Meanwhile, signs that the DPSCs began to differentiate into odontoblasts were observed or detected by alizarin red S staining, ELISA, RNA-Seq, and western blot. We hope that this study will contribute to the development of a new material that promotes the regeneration of dental tissue as well as providing new ideas and strategies for the treatment of dental pulp disease.

Abstract
The study of regenerative dentistry receives a fast growing interest. The potential ability of the dentin-pulp complex to regenerate is both promising and perplexing. To answer the challenging nature of the dental environment, scientists have developed various combinations of biomaterial scaffolds, stem cells, and incorporation of several growth factors. One of the crucial elements of this tissue engineering plan is the selection and fabrication of scaffolds. However, further findings suggest that cell behavior hugely depends on mechanical signaling. Nanotopography modifies scaffolds to alter cell migration and differentiation. However, to the best of the author's knowledge, there are very few studies addressing the correlation between nanotopography and dentin-pulp complex regeneration. Therefore, this article presents a comprehensive review of these studies and suggests a direction for future developments, particularly in the incorporation of nanotopography design for dentin-pulp complex regeneration.

Abstract
Engineered nano-bio cellular interfaces driven by 1D vertical nanostructures (1D-VNS) are set to prompt radical progress in modulating cellular processes at the nanoscale. Here, tuneable cell-VNS interfacial interactions are probed and assessed, highlighting the use of 1D-VNS in immunomodulation, and intracellular delivery into immune cells-both crucial in fundamental and translational biomedical research. With programmable topography and adaptable surface functionalization, 1D-VNS provide unique biophysical and biochemical cues to orchestrate innate and adaptive immunity, both ex vivo and in vivo. The intimate nanoscale cell-VNS interface leads to membrane penetration and cellular deformation, facilitating efficient intracellular delivery of diverse bioactive cargoes into hard-to-transfect immune cells. The unsettled interfacial mechanisms reported to be involved in VNS-mediated intracellular delivery are discussed. By identifying up-to-date progress and fundamental challenges of current 1D-VNS technology in immune-cell manipulation, it is hoped that this report gives timely insights for further advances in developing 1D-VNS as a safe, universal, and highly scalable platform for cell engineering and enrichment in advanced cancer immunotherapy such as chimeric antigen receptor-T therapy.

Friction stability and cellular behaviors on laser textured Ti-6Al-4V alloy implants with bioinspired micro-overlapping structures. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2020; 109:103823.

Abstract
The grain structure and surface morphology of bio-implants act as a pivotal part in altering cell behavior. Titanium alloy bone screws, as common implants, are prone to screws loosening and complications threat in the physiological environment due to their inferior anti-wear and surface inertia. Manufacturing bone screws with high wear resistance and ideal biocompatibility has always been a challenge. In this study, a series of overlapping morphologies inspired by the hierarchical structure of fish scales and micro bulges of shrimp were structured on Ti-6Al-4V implant by laser texturing. The results indicate that the textured patterns could improve cell attachment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. The short-term response of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) on the textured surface are more sensitive to the microstructure than the surface roughness, wettability, grain size and surface chemical elements of the textured surfaces. More importantly, the friction-increasing and friction-reducing type overlapping structures exhibit excellent friction stability at different stages of modified simulated body fluid (m-SBF) soaking. The overlapping structure (Micro-smooth stacked ring: MSSR) is more beneficial to promote the formation of apatite. Deposited spherical-like apatite particles can act as a "lubricant" on the MSSR surface during the friction process to alleviate the adhesion wear of the surface. Meanwhile, apatite particles participate in the formation of friction film, which plays an effective role in reducing friction and antiwear in corrosion solution (m-SBF) for a long time. These features show that the combination of soaking treatment in m-SBF solution with laser-textured MSSR structure is expected to be an efficient and environmentally friendly strategy to prolong the service life of bone screws and reducing the complications of mildly osteoporotic implants.

Abstract
Cell-derived matrices (CDMs) are an interesting alternative to conventional sources of extracellular matrices (ECMs) as CDMs mimic the natural ECM composition better and are therefore attractive as a scaffolding material for regulating the functions of stem cells. Previous research on stem cell differentiation has demonstrated that both surface topography and CDMs have a significant influence. However, not much focus has been devoted to elucidating possible synergistic effects of CDMs and topography on osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs). In this study, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-based anisotropic topographies (wrinkles) with various topography dimensions were prepared and subsequently combined with native ECMs produced by human fibroblasts that remained on the surface topography after decellularization. The synergistic effect of CDMs combined with topography on osteogenic differentiation of hBM-MSCs was investigated. The results showed that substrates with specific topography dimensions, coated with aligned CDMs, dramatically enhanced the capacity of osteogenesis as investigated using immunofluorescence staining for identifying osteopontin (OPN) and mineralization. Furthermore, the hBM-MSCs on the substrates decorated with CDMs exhibited a higher percentage of (Yes-associated protein) YAP inside the nucleus, stronger cell contractility, and greater formation of focal adhesions, illustrating that enhanced osteogenesis is partly mediated by cellular tension and mechanotransduction following the YAP pathway. Taken together, our findings highlight the importance of ECMs mediating the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells, and the combination of CDMs and topography will be a powerful approach for material-driven osteogenesis.

Abstract
Aiming to address a stable chondrogenesis derived from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) to be applied in cartilage repair strategies at the onset of osteoarthritis (OA), we analyzed the effect of arginine–glycine–aspartate (RGD) density on cell condensation that occurs during the initial phase of chondrogenesis. For this, we seeded MSC-derived from OA and healthy (H) donors in RGD-dendrimer-poly(L-lactic) acid (PLLA) nanopatterned substrates (RGD concentrations of 4 × 10−9, 10−8, 2.5 × 10−8, and 10−2 w/w), during three days and compared to a cell pellet conventional three-dimensional culture system. Molecular gene expression (collagens type-I and II–COL1A1 and COL2A1, tenascin-TNC, sex determining region Y-box9-SOX9, and gap junction protein alpha 1–GJA1) was determined as well as the cell aggregates and pellet size, collagen type-II and connexin 43 proteins synthesis. This study showed that RGD-tailored first generation dendrimer (RGD-Cys-D1) PLLA nanopatterned substrates supported the formation of pre-chondrogenic condensates from OA- and H-derived human bone marrow-MSCs with enhanced chondrogenesis regarding the cell pellet conventional system (presence of collagen type-II and connexin 43, both at the gene and protein level). A RGD-density dependent trend was observed for aggregates size, in concordance with previous studies. Moreover, the nanopatterns’ had a higher effect on OA-derived MSC morphology, leading to the formation of bigger and more compact aggregates with improved expression of early chondrogenic markers.

Abstract
In the human body, cells in a tissue are exposed to signals derived from their specific extracellular matrix (ECM), such as architectural structure, mechanical properties, and chemical composition (proteins, growth factors). Research on biomaterials in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine aims to recreate such stimuli using engineered materials to induce a specific response of cells at the interface. Although traditional biomaterials design has been mostly limited to varying individual signals, increasing interest has arisen on combining several features in recent years to improve the mimicry of extracellular matrix properties. Tremendous progress in combinatorial surface modification exploiting, for example, topographical features or variations in mechanics combined with biochemical cues has enabled the identification of their key regulatory characteristics on various cell fate decisions. Gradients especially facilitated such research by enabling the investigation of combined continuous changes of different signals. Despite unravelling important synergies for cellular responses, challenges arise in terms of fabrication and characterization of multifunctional engineered materials. This review summarizes recent work on combinatorial surface modifications that aim to control biological responses. Modification and characterization methods for enhanced control over multifunctional material properties are highlighted and discussed. Thereby, this review deepens the understanding and knowledge of biomimetic combinatorial material modification, their challenges but especially their potential.

Abstract
Graphene foam holds promise for tissue engineering applications. In this study, graphene foam was used as a three-dimension scaffold to evaluate cell attachment, cell morphology, and molecular markers of early differentiation. The aim of this study was to determine if cell attachment and elaboration of an extracellular matrix would be modulated by functionalization of graphene foam with fibronectin, an extracellular matrix protein that cells adhere well to, prior to the establishment of three-dimensional cell culture. The molecular dynamic simulation demonstrated that the fibronectin-graphene interaction was stabilized predominantly through interaction between the graphene and arginine side chains of the protein. Quasi-static and dynamic mechanical testing indicated that fibronectin functionalization of graphene altered the mechanical properties of graphene foam. The elastic strength of the scaffold increased due to fibronectin, but the viscoelastic mechanical behavior remained unchanged. An additive effect was observed in the mechanical stiffness when the graphene foam was both coated with fibronectin and cultured with cells for 28 days. Cytoskeletal organization assessed by fluorescence microscopy demonstrated a fibronectin-dependent reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and an increase in actin stress fibers. Gene expression assessed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction of 9 genes encoding cell attachment proteins (Cd44, Ctnna1, Ctnnb1, Itga3, Itga5, Itgav, Itgb1, Ncam1, Sgce), 16 genes encoding extracellular matrix proteins (Col1a1, Col2a1, Col3a1, Col5a1, Col6a1, Ecm1, Emilin1, Fn1, Hapln1, Lamb3, Postn, Sparc, Spp1, Thbs1, Thbs2, Tnc), and 9 genes encoding modulators of remodeling (Adamts1, Adamts2, Ctgf, Mmp14, Mmp2, Tgfbi, Timp1, Timp2, Timp3) indicated that graphene foam provided a microenvironment conducive to expression of genes that are important in early chondrogenesis. Functionalization of graphene foam with fibronectin modified the cellular response to graphene foam, demonstrated by decreases in relative gene expression levels. These findings illustrate the combinatorial factors of microscale materials properties and nanoscale molecular features to consider in the design of three-dimensional graphene scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
A high-performance multilayer coating with external, flexible, and silicon-doped hydroxyapatite (Si-HA) nanorods was designed using bionics. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) and the microwave hydrothermal (MH) method were used to rapidly deposit this multilayer coating on a titanium (Ti) substrate, applied for 5 and 10 min, respectively. The bioactive multilayer coating was composed of four layers, and the outermost layer was an external growth layer that consisted of many Si-HA nanorods with a single-crystal structure. The Si-HA nanorods exhibited good flexibility, likely because of their complete single-crystal structures, smooth surfaces, and suitable diameters and lengths. This multilayer coating with a high surface energy was superhydrophilic and exhibited good in vitro bioactivities, such as good apatite formation ability, good cell spreading, and high osteogenic gene expression levels. After implantation in the tibia of rabbits for 16 weeks, almost no soft tissues were formed at the MH treated PEO implant-bone interface. A direct bone contact interface was formed by a bridging effect of the flexible Si-HA nanorods, which further produced a high implant-bone interface bonding strength. The current results demonstrated that the bioactive multilayer layers with the flexible Si-HA nanorods displayed a very good osseointegration ability, showing promising applications in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Surface charge is one of the essential physicochemical properties of titanium surfaces for extracellular protein adsorption. Titanium surfaces are generally electronegatively charged at physiological pH. Typical cellular adhesive proteins and cell membranes are also negatively charged. Therefore, there are no direct electric interactions between proteins and titanium surfaces at physiological pH. The objective of this study was to determine how different electrical charges on titanium surfaces affect protein adsorption. Commercially pure grade-2 titanium disks, 19 mm in diameter and 1.5 mm in thickness, having acid-etched micro-roughed surfaces, were prepared. Electropositive charge was supplied by soaking in LiOH solution at concentrations of 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 M. After LiOH treatment, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed. The zeta potential, isoelectric point, and wettability of titanium surfaces were measured. The adsorption levels of proteins, including albumin, laminin, and fibronectin, were evaluated. Osteoblastic cell attachment level was also determined. Incorporation of Li was detected in the oxide layer of titanium without surface morphological modification. The zeta potential was shifted up and the isoelectric point was increased from 3.94 to 5.63 by LiOH treatment. Long-term super-hydrophilicity was also obtained on Li-treated surfaces. The adsorption of albumin and laminin increased with increasing concentration of LiOH treatment solution, whereas fibronectin adsorption was highest upon treatment with 0.25 M. The osteoblastic cell attachment level was shown to be dependent on the amount of fibronectin adsorbed. In conclusion, LiOH treatment enhances biological adhesion on titanium with an increase in surface charge and hydrophilicity. This study suggests that modifying the surface charge provides a direct protein-to-materials interaction and the optimal application of Li should be investigated further.

Abstract
Three-dimensional nano-biointerfaces, emerging as significant cell-guiding platforms, have attracted great attention. Nevertheless, complicated chemical modifications and instability of bio-ligands limit their widespread application. In this study, a novel biointerface, based on silicon nanowires (SiNWs) array, was prepared for bacterial capture and sensing. Vertically aligned SiNWs were fabricated via metal assisted chemical etching and decorated with uniform Au@Ag core-shell nanoparticles (Au@Ag NPs). These deposited Au@Ag NPs formed multi-scale topographic structures with nanowires, which provided effective attachment sites for bacterial adhesins. In addition, the Au cores of Au@Ag NPs enhanced the activity of the surface silver atoms and promoted the binding of Au@Ag NPs to bacteria. Thus, the Au@Ag NPs decorated SiNWs (SiNWs-Au@Ag) substrate exhibited high capture capacity for bacteria in drinking water (8.6 and 5.5 × 106 cells per cm2 for E. coli and S. aureus in 40 min, respectively) via physical and chemical effects. Bacteria in drinking water can be sensitively detected by using a combination of laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and label based surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) techniques. Due to the antibacterial activity of Au@Ag NPs and the physical stress exerted on SiNWs, the prepared biointerface also showed high antibacterial rates towards both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria strains. With these excellent properties, the flexible sensing platform might open a new avenue for the prevention and control of microbial hazards in water.

Abstract
The design of topographically patterned surfaces is considered to be a preferable approach for influencing cellular behavior in a controllable manner, in particular to improve the osteogenic ability of bone regeneration. In this study, we fabricated nanolamellar tantalum (Ta) surfaces with lamellar wall thicknesses of 40 and 70 nm. The cells attached to nanolamellar Ta surfaces exhibited higher protein adsorption and expression of β1 integrin, as compared to the nonstructured bulk Ta, which facilitated the initial cell attachment and spreading. We thus, as expected, observed significantly enhanced osteoblast adhesion, growth, and alkaline phosphatase activity on nanolamellar Ta surfaces. However, the beneficial effects of nanolamellar structures on osteogenesis became weaker as the lamellar wall thickness increased. The interaction between cells and Ta surfaces was examined through adhesion forces using atomic force microscopy. Our findings indicated that the Ta surface with a lamellar wall thickness of 40 nm exhibited the strongest stimulatory effect. The observed strongest adhesion force between the cell-attached tip and the Ta surface with a 40 nm thick lamellar wall encouraged the much stronger binding of cells with the surface and thus well-attached, -stretched, and -grown cells. We attributed this to the increase in the available contact area of cells with the thinner nanolamellar Ta surface. The increased contact area allowed the enhancement of the cell surface interaction strength and, thus, improved osteoblast adhesion. This study suggests that the thin nanolamellar topography shows immense potential in improving the clinical performance of dental and orthopedic implants.

Abstract
With inflammation increasingly recognized as a key factor that influences fracture healing, the immunologic response is considered to play a pivotal role in determining implant-mediated osteogenesis. Herein, this paper demonstrates that modification of the surface hydrophilicity of Ti surface oxides can be utilized to control immune response by steering the macrophage polarization toward pro- or anti-inflammation phenotype. Enhanced anti-inflammatory and prohealing performance of macrophages is observed on hydrophilic surfaces compared to hydrophobic ones. Further study on the detailed mechanism demonstrates that the surface hydrophilicity controls specific proteins (fibronectin and fibrinogen) adsorption and conformation, which activate different signaling pathways (PI3K and NF-κB) through selective expression of integrin β1 or β2 to influence the behaviors of macrophages. Thus, this study presents a mechanism of macrophage polarization modulated by surface hydrophilicity for the surface design of advanced implant materials with satisfactory anti-inflammatory and osteogenesis-promoting properties.

Abstract
Tantalum is one of the most important biomaterials used for surgical implant devices. However, little knowledge exists about how nanoscale-textured tantalum surfaces affect cell morphology. Mammalian (Vero) cell morphology on tantalum-coated comb structures was studied using high-resolution scanning electron microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. These structures contained parallel lines and trenches with equal widths in the range of 0.18 to 100 μm. Results showed that as much as 77% of adherent cell nuclei oriented within 10° of the line axes when deposited on comb structures with widths smaller than 10 μm. However, less than 20% of cells exhibited the same alignment performance on blanket tantalum films or structures with line widths larger than 50 μm. Two types of line-width-dependent cell morphology were observed. When line widths were smaller than 0.5 μm, nanometer-scale pseudopodia bridged across trench gaps without contacting the bottom surfaces. In contrast, pseudopodia structures covered the entire trench sidewalls and the trench bottom surfaces of comb structures with line-widths larger than 0.5 μm. Furthermore, results showed that when a single cell simultaneously adhered to multiple surface structures, the portion of the cell contacting each surface reflected the type of morphology observed for cells individually contacting the surfaces.

Abstract
Aligned, electrospun fiber scaffolds provide topographical guidance for regenerating neurons and glia after central nervous system injury. To date, no study has explored how fiber surface nanotopography affects astrocyte response to fibrous scaffolds. Astrocytes play important roles in the glial scar, the blood brain barrier, and in maintaining homeostasis in the central nervous system. In this study, electrospun poly L-lactic acid fibers were engineered with smooth, pitted, or divoted surface nanotopography. Cortical or spinal cord primary rat astrocytes were cultured on the surfaces for either 1 or 3 d to examine the astrocyte response over time. The results showed that cortical astrocytes were significantly shorter and broader on the pitted and divoted fibers compared to those on smooth fibers. However, spinal cord astrocyte morphology was not significantly altered by the surface features. These findings indicate that astrocytes from unique anatomical locations respond differently to the presence of nanotopography. Western blot results show that the differences in morphology were not associated with significant changes in glial fibrillary acidicprotein (GFAP) or vinculin in either astrocyte population, suggesting that surface pits and divots do not induce a reactive phenotype in either cortical or spinal cord astrocytes. Finally, astrocytes were co-cultured with dorsal root ganglia to determine how the surfaces affected astrocyte-mediated neurite outgrowth. Astrocytes cultured on the fibers for shorter periods of time (1 d) generally supported longer neurite outgrowth. Pitted and divoted fibers restricted spinal cord astrocyte-mediated neurite outgrowth, while smooth fibers increased 3 d spinal cord astrocyte-mediated neurite outgrowth. In total, fiber surface nanotopography can influence astrocyte elongation and influence the capability of astrocytes to direct neurites. Therefore, fiber surface characteristics should be carefully controlled to optimize astrocyte-mediated axonal regeneration.

Abstract
Polymer layers capable of suppressing protein adsorption from biological media while presenting extracellular matrix-derived peptide motifs offer valuable new options for biomimetic surface engineering. Herein, we provide detailed insights into physicochemical changes induced in a nonfouling poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) brush/polydopamine (PDA) system by incorporation of adhesion ligand (RGD) peptides. Brushes with high surface chain densities (σ ≥ 0.5 chains·nm-2) and pronounced hydrophilicity (water contact angles ≤ 10°) were prepared by end-tethering of heterobifunctional PEOs ( Mn ≈ 20 000 g·mol-1) to PDA-modified surfaces from a reactive melt. Using alkyne distal end group on the PEO chains, azidopentanoic-bearing peptides were coupled through a copper-catalyzed Huisgen azide-alkyne "click" cycloaddition reaction. The surface concentration of RGD was tuned from complete saturation of the PEO surface with peptides (1.7 × 105 fmol·cm-2) to values which may induce distinct differences in cell adhesion (<6.0 × 102 fmol·cm-2). Infrared reflection-absorption and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies proved the PDA-PEO layers covalent structure and the immobilization of RGD peptides. The complete reconstruction of experimental electrohydrodynamics data utilizing mean-field theory predictions further verified the attained brush structure of the end-tethered PEO chains which provided hydrodynamic screening of the PDA anchor. Increasing the surface concentration of immobilized RGD peptides led to increased interfacial charging. Supported by simulations, this observation was attributed to the ionization of functional groups in the amino acid sequence and to the pH-dependent adsorption of water ions (OH- > H3O+) from the electrolyte. Despite the distinct differences observed in the electrokinetic analysis of the surfaces bearing different amounts of RGD, it was found that the peptide presence on PEO(20 000)-PDA layers does not have a significant effect on the nonfouling properties of the system. Notably, the presented PEO(20 000)-PDA layers bearing RGD peptides in the surface concentration range 5.9 to 1.7 × 105 fmol·cm-2 reduced the protein adsorption from fetal bovine serum to less than 30 ng·cm-2, that is, values comparable to the ones obtained for pristine PEO(20 000)-PDA layers.

Zheng G, Guan B, Hu P, Qi X, Wang P, Kong Y, Liu Z, Gao P, Li R, Zhang X, Wu X, Sui L. Topographical cues of direct metal laser sintering titanium surfaces facilitate osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells through epigenetic regulation. Cell Prolif 2018; 51:e12460. [PMID: 29701270 DOI: 10.1111/cpr.12460] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2018] [Accepted: 03/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the role of hierarchical micro/nanoscale topography of direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) titanium surfaces in osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), as well as the possible underlying epigenetic mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three groups of titanium specimens were prepared, including DMLS group, sandblasted, large-grit, acid-etched (SLA) group and smooth titanium (Ti) group. BMSCs were cultured on discs followed by surface characterization. Cell adhesion and proliferation were examined by SEM and CCK-8 assay, while osteogenic-related gene expression was detected by real-time RT-PCR. Immunofluorescence, western blotting and in vivo study were also performed to evaluate the potential for osteogenic induction of materials. In addition, to investigate the underlying epigenetic mechanisms, immunofluorescence and western blotting were performed to evaluate the global level of H3K4me3 during osteogenesis. The H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 levels at the promoter area of the osteogenic gene Runx2 were detected by ChIP assay. RESULTS The DMLS surface exhibits greater protein adsorption ability and shows better cell adhesion performance than SLA and Ti surfaces. Moreover, both in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that the DMLS surface is more favourable for the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs than SLA and Ti surfaces. Accordingly, osteogenesis-associated gene expression in BMSCs is efficiently induced by a rapid H3K27 demethylation and increase in H3K4me3 levels at gene promoters upon osteogenic differentiation on DMLS titanium surface. CONCLUSIONS Topographical cues of DMLS surfaces have greater potential for the induction of osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs than SLA and Ti surfaces both in vitro and in vivo. A potential epigenetic mechanism is that the appropriate topography allows rapid H3K27 demethylation and an increased H3K4me3 level at the promoter region of osteogenesis-associated genes during the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of blindness, and dry AMD has no effective treatment. Retinal constructs comprising retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells supported by electrospun scaffolds have been investigated to treat dry AMD. However, electrospun scaffolds studied to-date do not mimic the structural microenvironment of human Bruch's membrane (BM), essential for native-like RPE monolayers. The aim of this study was to develop a structurally biomimetic scaffold designed to support a functional RPE monolayer, comprising porous, electrospun nanofibrous membranes (ENMs), coated with laminin, mimicking the inner collagenous layer (ICL) and basal RPE lamina respectively, the cell supporting layers of the BM. In vitro evaluation showed 70nm PLLA ENMs adsorbed high amounts of laminin and supported functional RPE monolayers, exhibiting 3D polygonal-cobblestone morphology, apical microvilli, basal infoldings, high transepithelial resistance (TER), phagocytic activity and expression of signature RPE markers. 70nm PLLA ENMs were successfully implanted into the subretinal space of RCS-rdy+p+/LAV rats, also commonly know as rdy rats. At week 4, in the absence of immunosuppressants, implanted PLLA ENMs were surrounded by a significantly low number of activated microglial cells, compared to week 1, indicating no adverse long-term immune response. In conclusion, we successfully designed and tested ENMs emulating the RPE cell supporting layers of the BM, and found 70nm PLLA ENMs to be best suited as scaffolds for fabricating retinal constructs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Age related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in the developed world, with an increasing number of people suffering from blindness or severe visual impairment. Transplantation of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells supported on a synthetic, biomimetic-like Bruch's membrane (BM) is considered a promising treatment. However, the synthetic scaffolds used do not mimic the microenvironment of the RPE cell supporting layers, required for the development of a functional RPE monolayer. This study indicated that porous, laminin coated, 70nm PLLA ENMs supported functional RPE monolayers, exhibiting 3D polygonal-cobblestone morphology, apical microvilli, basal infoldings, high transepithelial resistance (TER), phagocytic activity and expression of signature RPE markers. These findings indicate the potential clinical use of porous, laminin coated, 70nm PLLA ENMs in fabricating retinal constructs aimed at treating dry AMD.

Abstract
High-throughput screening (HTS) methods based on topography gradients or arrays have been extensively used to investigate cell-material interactions. However, it is a huge technological challenge to cost efficiently prepare topographical gradients of inorganic biomaterials due to their inherent material properties. Here, we developed a novel strategy translating PDMS-based wrinkled topography gradients with amplitudes from 49 to 2561 nm and wavelengths between 464 and 7121 nm to inorganic biomaterials (SiO2, Ti/TiO2, Cr/CrO3, and Al2O3) which are frequently used clinical materials. Optimal substratum conditions promoted human bone-marrow derived mesenchymal stem cell alignment, elongation, cytoskeleton arrangement, filopodia development as well as cell adhesion in vitro, which depended both on topography and interface material. This study displays a positive correlation between cell alignment and the orientation of cytoskeleton, filopodia, and focal adhesions. This platform vastly minimizes the experimental efforts both for inorganic material interface engineering and cell biological assessments in a facile and effective approach. The practical application of the HTS technology is expected to aid in the acceleration of developments of inorganic clinical biomaterials.

Abstract
The influence of physical forces exerted by or felt by cells on cell shape, migration, and cytoskeleton arrangement is now widely acknowledged and hypothesized to occur due to modulation of cellular inside-out forces in response to changes in the external fibrous environment (outside-in). Our previous work using the non-electrospinning Spinneret-based Tunable Engineered Parameters' suspended fibers has revealed that cells are able to sense and respond to changes in fiber curvature and structural stiffness as evidenced by alterations to focal adhesion cluster lengths. Here, we present the development and application of a suspended nanonet platform for measuring C2C12 mouse myoblast forces attached to fibers of three diameters (250, 400, and 800 nm) representing a wide range of structural stiffness (3-50 nN/μm). The nanonet force microscopy platform measures cell adhesion forces in response to symmetric and asymmetric external perturbation in single and cyclic modes. We find that contractility-based, inside-out forces are evenly distributed at the edges of the cell, and that forces are dependent on fiber structural stiffness. Additionally, external perturbation in symmetric and asymmetric modes biases cell-fiber failure location without affecting the outside-in forces of cell-fiber adhesion. We then extend the platform to measure forces of (1) cell-cell junctions, (2) single cells undergoing cyclic perturbation in the presence of drugs, and (3) cancerous single-cells transitioning from a blebbing to a pseudopodial morphology.

Abstract
Inspired from falling leaves, ZnO nanorods-nanoslices hierarchical structure (NHS) was constructed to modify the surfaces of two widely used implant materials: titanium (Ti) and tantalum (Ta), respectively. By which means, two-stage release of antibacterial active substances were realized to address the clinical importance of long-term broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. At early stages (within 48 h), the NHS exhibited a rapid releasing to kill the bacteria around the implant immediately. At a second stage (over 2 weeks), the NHS exhibited a slow releasing to realize long-term inhibition. The excellent antibacterial activity of ZnO NHS was confirmed once again by animal test in vivo. According to the subsequent experiments, the ZnO NHS coating exhibited the great advantage of high efficiency, low toxicity, and long-term durability, which could be a feasible manner to prevent the abuse of antibiotics on implant-related surgery.

Abstract
A laser based technique for microstructuring titanium and tantalum substrates using the Talbot effect and an array of microlenses is presented. By using this hybrid technique; we are able to generate different patterns and geometries on the top surfaces of the biomaterials. The Talbot effect allows us to rapidly make microstructuring, solving the common problems of using microlenses for multipatterning; where the material expelled during the ablation of biomaterials damages the microlens. The Talbot effect permits us to increase the working distance and reduce the period of the patterns. We also demonstrate that the geometries and patterns act as anchor points for cells; affecting the cell adhesion to the metallic substrates and guiding how they spread over the material.
