THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 870:161950. [PMID: 36740075 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.161950] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Marine shell resources have received great attention from researchers owing to their unique merits such as high hardness, good toughness, corrosion resistance, high adsorption, and bioactivity. Restricted by the level of comprehensive utilization technology, the utilization rate of shells is extremely low, resulting in serious waste and pollution. The research shows that the unique brick-mud structure of shells makes them have diverse and good functional characteristics, which guides them to have great utilization potential in different fields. Hence, this review highlights the constitutive relationship between microstructure-function-application of shells (e.g., gastropods, cephalopods, and amniotes), and the comprehensive applications and development ideas in the fields of biomedicine, adsorption enrichment, pHotocatalysis, marine carbon sink, and environmental deicer. It is worth mentioning that marine shells are currently well developed in three areas: bone repair, health care and medicinal value, and drug carrier, which together promote the progress of biomedical field. In addition, an in-depth summary of the application of marine shells in the adsorption and purification of various impurities such as crude oil, heavy metal ions and dyes at low-cost and high efficiency is presented. Finally, by integrating thoughts and approaches from different applications, we are committed to providing new pathways for the excavation and future high-value of shell resources, clarifying the existing development stages and bottlenecks, promoting the development of related technology industries, and achieving the synergistic win-win situation of economic and environmental benefits.

Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles-cell interaction: New approaches to disclose the fate of membrane-bound and internalised nanoparticles. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 142:213148. [PMID: 36274359 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2022.213148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 09/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Hydroxyapatite nanoparticles are popular tools in bone regeneration, but they have also been used for gene delivery and as anticancer drugs. Understanding their mechanism of action, particularly for the latter application, is crucial to predict their toxicity. To this end, we aimed to elucidate the importance of nanoparticle membrane interactions in the cytotoxicity of MG-63 cells using two different types of nanoparticles. In addition, conventional techniques for studying nanoparticle internalisation were evaluated and compared with newer and less exploited approaches. Hydroxyapatite and magnesium-doped hydroxyapatite nanoparticles were used as suspensions or compacted as specular discs. Comparison between cells seeded on the discs and those supplemented with the nanoparticles allowed direct interaction of the cell membrane with the material to be ruled out as the main mechanism of toxicity. In addition, standard techniques such as flow cytometry were inconclusive when used to assess nanoparticles toxicity. Interestingly, the use of intracellular calcium fluorescent probes revealed the presence of a high number of calcium-rich vesicles after nanoparticle supplementation in cell culture. These structures could not be detected by transmission electron microscopy due to their liquid content. However, by using cryo-soft X-ray imaging, which was used to visualise the cellular ultrastructure without further treatment other than vitrification and to quantify the linear absorption coefficient of each organelle, it was possible to identify them as multivesicular bodies, potentially acting as calcium stores. In the study, an advanced state of degradation of the hydroxyapatite and magnesium-doped hydroxyapatite nanoparticles within MG-63 cells was observed. Overall, we demonstrate that the combination of fluorescent calcium probes together with cryo-SXT is an excellent approach to investigate intracellular calcium, especially when found in its soluble form.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is similar to natural bone regarding composition, and its structure favors in biomedical applications. Continuous research and progress on HA nanomaterials (HA-NMs) have explored novel fabrication approaches coupled with functionalization and characterization methods. These nanomaterials have a significant role in many biomedical areas like sustained drug and gene delivery, bio-imaging, magnetic resonance, cell separation, and hyperthermia treatment due to their promising biocompatibility. This review highlighted the HA-NMs chemical composition, recent progress in synthesis methods, characterization and surface modification methods, ion-doping, and role in biomedical applications. HA-NMs have a substantial role as drug delivery vehicles, coating material, bone implant, coating, ceramic, and composite materials. Here, we try to summarize an overview of HA-NMs with the provision of future directions.

Abstract
Although alginate is widely used as a matrix in the formulation of cell-laden inks, this polymer often requires laborious processing strategies due to its lack of cell adhesion moieties. The main objective of the present work was to explore the incorporation of microspheres into alginate-based bioinks as a simple and tuneable way to solve the cell adhesion problems, while adding extra biological functionality and improving their mechanical properties. To this end, three types of microspheres with different mineral contents (i.e. gelatine with 0% of hydroxyapatite, gelatine with 25 wt% of hydroxyapatite nanoparticles and 100 wt% of calcium -deficient hydroxyapatite) were synthesised and incorporated into the formulation of cell-laden inks. The results showed that the addition of microspheres generally improved the rheological properties of the ink, favoured cell proliferation and positively affected osteogenic cell differentiation. Furthermore, this differentiation was found to be influenced by the type of microsphere and the ability of the cells to migrate towards them, which was highly dependent on the stiffness of the bioink. In this regard, Ca2+ supplementation in the cell culture medium had a pronounced effect on the relaxation of the stiffness of these cell-loaded inks, influencing the overall cell performance. In conclusion, we have developed a powerful and tuneable strategy for the fabrication of alginate-based bioinks with enhanced biological characteristics by incorporating microspheres into the initial ink formulation.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is one of the most serious public health problems in the world. Repeated daily injections of subcutaneous insulin is the standard treatment for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus; however, subcutaneous insulin injections can potentially cause local discomfort, patient noncompliance, hypoglycemia, failure to regulate glucose homeostasis, infections, and fat deposits at the injection sites. In recent years, numerous attempts have been made to produce safe and efficient nanoparticles for oral insulin delivery. Oral administration is considered the most effective alternative route to insulin injection, but it is accompanied by several challenges related to enzymatic proteolysis, digestive breakdown, and absorption barriers. A number of natural and synthetic polymeric, lipid-based, and inorganic nanoparticles have been investigated for use. Although improvements have recently been made in potential oral insulin delivery systems, these require further investigation before clinical trials are conducted. In this review, new approaches to oral insulin delivery for diabetes treatment are discussed, including polymeric, lipid-based, and inorganic nanoparticles, as well as the clinical trials performed for this purpose.

Abstract
Bone is an amazing nanocomposite tissue made of both organic (primarily collagen) and inorganic (primarily nano-hydroxyapatite [n-HA]) elements. Bone grafting is a widely used surgical technique in dental and orthopedic surgeries to enhance bone regeneration. In view of the significant drawbacks of traditional treatments, nanomaterials offer new strategies for bone regeneration. The HA with the chemical formula of Ca10(OH) 2(PO4) 6 is very identical to the inorganic portion of bone. Due to its high stability and minimal solubility, it is often used in orthopedic and dental procedures. Currently, n-HA, which facilitates the growth of new bone, has garnered considerable attention because of better bioactivity and bone integration ability when compared to porous HA. This review gives comprehensive insights related to n-HA structure, chemical composition, surface modification techniques, and their application in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) is the most commonly used orthopedic implant material. In recent years, the emergence of cationic doped hydroxyapatite has revealed more possibilities for the biological application of HA. Conventional HA does not promote new bone formation because of its poor osteoinductive activity, and has a similar density to that of bone, leading to difficulty in distinguishing both via imaging. Magnesium ions are useful for regulating the cellular behavior and promoting bone regeneration. Ba ion related compounds, such as BaSO4, have a strong X-ray shielding effect. In this study, Ba/Mg@HA was synthesized to prepare Ba/Mg@HA/PLGA composites, and we aimed to investigate if Ba/Mg@HA/PLGA composites enhanced bone repair on osteoblasts and tibial defects, as well as the X-ray and CT imaging ability of bone implants in rats. The in vitro experimental results showed that the Ba/Mg@HA/PLGA composites significantly improved the attachment and osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. These include the promotion of mineral deposition, enhancement of alkaline phosphatase activity, upregulation of OCN and COL-1 gene expression, and increase in COL-1 and OCN protein expression in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The in vivo experimental results showed that the Ba/Mg@HA/PLGA composites significantly increased the rate of bone defect healing and the expression of BMP-2 and COL-1 in the bones of rats. X-ray and CT imaging results showed that the Ba/Mg@HA/PLGA composites enhanced the X-ray imaging ability. These findings indicate that the Ba/Mg@HA/PLGA composites can effectively promote bone formation and improve the X-ray and CT imaging abilities to a certain extent.

Abstract
Material science is a relevant discipline in support of regenerative medicine. Indeed, tissue regeneration requires the use of scaffolds able to guide and sustain the natural cell metabolism towards tissue regrowth. This need is particularly important in musculoskeletal regeneration, such as in the case of diseased bone or osteocartilaginous regions for which calcium phosphate-based scaffolds are considered as the golden solution. However, various technological barriers related to conventional ceramic processing have thus far hampered the achievement of biomimetic and bioactive scaffolds as effective solutions for still unmet clinical needs in orthopaedics. Driven by such highly impacting socioeconomic needs, new nature-inspired approaches promise to make a technological leap forward in the development of advanced biomaterials. The present review illustrates ion-doped apatites as biomimetic materials whose bioactivity resides in their unstable chemical composition and nanocrystallinity, both of which are, however, destroyed by the classical sintering treatment. In the following, recent nature-inspired methods preventing the use of high-temperature treatments, based on (i) chemically hardening bioceramics, (ii) biomineralisation process, and (iii) biomorphic transformations, are illustrated. These methods can generate products with advanced biofunctional properties, particularly biomorphic transformations represent an emerging approach that could pave the way to a technological leap forward in medicine and also in various other application fields.

Abstract
The use of oxidative stress generated by Cold Atmospheric Plasma (CAP) in oncology is being recently studied as a novel potential anti-cancer therapy. However, the beneficial effects of CAP for treating osteosarcoma have mostly been demonstrated in 2-dimensional cultures of cells, which do not mimic the complexity of the 3-dimensional (3D) bone microenvironment. In order to evaluate the effects of CAP in a relevant context of the human disease, we developed a 3D tissue-engineered model of osteosarcoma using a bone-like scaffold made of collagen type I and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles. Human osteosarcoma cells cultured within the scaffold showed a high capacity to infiltrate and proliferate and to exhibit osteomimicry in vitro. As expected, we observed significantly different functional behaviors between monolayer and 3D cultures when treated with Cold Plasma-Activated Ringer's Solution (PAR). Our data reveal that the 3D environment not only protects cells from PAR-induced lethality by scavenging and diminishing the amount of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species generated by CAP, but also favours the stemness phenotype of osteosarcoma cells. This is the first study that demonstrates the negative effect of PAR on cancer stem-like cell subpopulations in a 3D biomimetic model of cancer. These findings will allow to suitably re-focus research on plasma-based therapies in future.

Wu VM, Ahmed MK, Mostafa MS, Uskoković V. Empirical and theoretical insights into the structural effects of selenite doping in hydroxyapatite and the ensuing inhibition of osteoclasts. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2020; 117:111257. [PMID: 32919627 PMCID: PMC7501993 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2020.111257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2019] [Revised: 04/02/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
The use of ions as therapeutic agents has the potential to minimize the use of small-molecule drugs and biologics for the same purpose, thus providing a potentially more economic and less adverse means of treating, ameliorating or preventing a number of diseases. Hydroxyapatite (HAp) is a solid compound capable of accommodating foreign ions with a broad range of sizes and charges and its properties can dramatically change with the incorporation of these ionic additives. While most ionic substitutes in HAp have been monatomic cations, their lesser atomic weight, higher diffusivity, chaotropy and a lesser residence time on surfaces theoretically makes them prone to exert a lesser influence on the material/cell interaction than the more kosmotropic oxyanions. Selenite ion as an anionic substitution in HAp was explored in this study for its ability to affect the short-range and the long-range crystalline symmetry and solubility as well as for its ability to affect the osteoclast activity. We combined microstructural, crystallographic and spectroscopic analyses with quantum mechanical calculations to understand the structural effects of doping HAp with selenite. Integration of selenite ions into the crystal structure of HAp elongated the crystals along the c-axis, but isotropically lowered the crystallinity. It also increased the roughness of the material in direct proportion with the content of the selenite dopant, thus having a potentially positive effect on cell adhesion and integration with the host tissue. Selenite in total acted as a crystal structure breaker, but was also able to bring about symmetry at the local and global scales within specific concentration windows, indicating a variety of often mutually antagonistic crystallographic effects that it can induce in a concentration-dependent manner. Experimental determination of the lattice strain coupled with ab initio calculations on three different forms of carbonated HAp (A-type, B-type, AB-type) demonstrated that selenite ions initially substitute carbonates in the crystal structure of carbonated HAp, before substituting phosphates at higher concentrations. The most energetically favored selenite-doped HAp is of AB-type, followed by the B-type and only then by the A-type. This order of stability was entailed by the variation in the geometry and orientation of both the selenite ion and its neighboring phosphates and/or carbonates. The incorporation of selenite in different types of carbonated HAp also caused variations of different thermodynamic parameters, including entropy, enthalpy, heat capacity, and the Gibbs free energy. Solubility of HAp accommodating 1.2 wt% of selenite was 2.5 times higher than that of undoped HAp and the ensuing release of the selenite ion was directly responsible for inhibiting RAW264.7 osteoclasts. Dose-response curves demonstrated that the inhibition of osteoclasts was directly proportional to the concentration of selenite-doped HAp and to the selenite content in it. Meanwhile, selenite-doped HAp had a significantly less adverse effect on osteoblastic K7M2 and MC3T3-E1 cells than on RAW264.7 osteoclasts. The therapeutically promising osteoblast vs. osteoclast selectivity of inhibition was absent when the cells were challenged with undoped HAp, indicating that it is caused by selenite ions in HAp rather than by HAp alone. It is concluded that like three oxygens building the selenite pyramid, the coupling of (1) experimental materials science, (2) quantum mechanical modeling and (3) biological assaying is a triad from which a deeper understanding of ion-doped HAp and other biomaterials can emanate.

Abstract
Biodegradable natural polymers have been investigated extensively as the best choice for encapsulation and delivery of drugs. The research has attracted remarkable attention in the pharmaceutical industry. The shortcomings of conventional dosage systems, along with modified and targeted drug delivery methods, are addressed by using polymers with improved bioavailability, biocompatibility, and lower toxicity. Therefore, nanomedicines are now considered to be an innovative type of medication. This review critically examines the use of natural biodegradable polymers and their drug delivery systems for local or targeted and controlled/sustained drug release against fatal diseases.

Abstract
Delayed bone healing is a major challenge in orthopedic clinical practice, highlighting a need for technologies to overcome ineffective cell growth and osteogenic differentiation. The objective of this study was to investigate the synergistic effects of the PhysioStim (PEMF) signal with iron-ion doped tri-calcium phosphate bone substitute on human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) osteogenesis in vitro. Intrinsically magnetic nano-bone substitutes (MNBS) were developed with single particles on the order of 100 nm, saturation magnetization of 0.425 emu/g, and remanent magnetization of 0.013 emu/g. MNBS were added to hMSC culture and cell viability, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, mineralization, and osteogenic gene expression in the presence and absence of PEMF were quantified for up to 10 days. MNBS attached to the surface of and were internalized by hMSCs when cultured together for 4 days and had no impact on cell viability with PEMF exposure for up to 7 days. Although total ALP activity was significantly increased with PEMF treatment alone, with a peak at day 5, PEMF combined with MNBS significantly increased ALP activity, with a peak at day 3, compared with all other groups (p < 0.01). The shift can be explained by significantly increased extracellular ALP activity beginning at day 2 (p < 0.01). PEMF combined with MNBS demonstrated continuously increasing mineralization overtime, with significantly greater Alizarin Red S concentration compared with all other groups at day 7 (p < 0.01). Increases in ALP activity and mineral content were in agreement with osteogenic gene expression that demonstrated peak ALP gene expression at day 1, and upregulated BMP-2, BGLAP, and SPP1 gene expression at day 7 (p < 0.05). The results of this study demonstrate the synergistic effects of PEMF and MNBS on osteogenesis and suggest that PEMF and MNBS may provide a method for accelerated bone healing.

Abstract
The rapid growth of the abalone industry has brought a great burden to the environment because of their inedible shells. Aiming at environmental and resource sustainability, porous microspheres of carbonate-substituted hydroxyapatite (HAP) were prepared by a hydrothermal method using abalone shells; then, they were further used as a carrier for doxorubicin (DOX) in a drug delivery system. The porous HAP microspheres were approximately 6 μm in size with a considerable specific surface area and average pore size (128.6659 cm2/g and 9.064 nm, respectively), which ensured excellent drug-handling capacity (95.542%). In addition, the pH responsiveness of the drug release system was favorable for effective in vivo drug release in an acidic tumor microenvironment. Moreover, the drug-loaded microspheres could effectively induce apoptosis of MCF-7 cells but were less cytotoxic to MC3T3-E1 cells. Because of its good biocompatibility, high drug loading capacity and controlled drug release property, the porous microspheres prepared in this experiment have potential application value in drug delivery and tumor therapy; furthermore, they make full use of abalone shells, providing environmental sustainability.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate is the inorganic mineral of hard tissues such as bone and teeth. Due to their similarities to the natural bone, calcium phosphates are highly biocompatible and biodegradable materials that have found numerous applications in dental and orthopedic implants and bone tissue engineering. In the form of nanoparticles, calcium phosphate nanoparticles (CaP's) can also be used as effective delivery vehicles to transfer therapeutic agents such as nucleic acids, drugs, proteins and enzymes into tumor cells. In addition, facile preparation and functionalization of CaP's, together with their inherent properties such as pH-dependent solubility provide advantages in delivery and release of these bioactive agents using CaP's as nanocarriers. In this review, the challenges and achievements in the intracellular delivery of these agents to tumor cells are discussed. Also, the most important issues in the design and potential applications of CaP-based biominerals are addressed with more focus on their biodegradability in tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Nanostructured carbonated hydroxyapatite (nCHA) is a promising biomaterial for bone tissue engineering due to its chemical properties, similar to those of the bone mineral phase and its enhanced in vivo bioresorption. However, the biological effects of nCHA nanoparticles on cells and tissues are not sufficiently known. This study assessed the impact of exposing pre-osteoblasts to suspensions with high doses of nCHA nanoparticles with high or low crystallinity. MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts were cultured for 1 or 7 days in a culture medium previously exposed to CHA nanoparticles for 1 day. Control groups were produced by centrifugation for removal of bigger nCHA aggregates before exposure. Interaction of nanoparticles with the culture medium drastically changed medium composition, promoting Ca, P, and protein adsorption. Transmission Electron microscopy revealed that exposed cells were able to internalize both materials, which seemed concentrated inside endosomes. No cytotoxicity was observed for both materials, regardless of centrifugation, and the exposure did not induce alterations in the release of pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines. Morphological analysis revealed strong interactions of nCHA aggregates with cell surfaces, however without marked alterations in morphological features and cytoskeleton ultrastructure. The overall in vitro biocompatibility of nCHA materials, regardless of physicochemical characteristics such as crystallinity, encourages further studies on their clinical applications.

Abstract
Although numerous toxicological studies have been performed on carbon nanotubes (CNTs), a few studies have investigated their secondary and indirect effects beyond the primary target tissues/organs. Here, a cascade of events are investigated: the initiating event and the subsequent key events necessary for the development of phenotypes, namely CNT-induced pro-inflammatory effects on iron homeostasis and red blood cell formation, which are linked to anemia of inflammation (AI). A panel of CNTs are prepared including pristine multiwall CNTs (P-MWCNTs), aminated MWCNTs (MWCNTs-NH2 ), polyethylene glycol MWCNTs (MWCNTs-PEG), polyethyleneimine MWCNTs (MWCNTs-PEI), and carboxylated MWCNTs (MWCNTs-COOH). It has been demonstrated that all CNT materials provoke inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6) production and stimulate hepcidin induction, associated with disordered iron homeostasis, irrespective of exposure routes including intratracheal, intravenous, and intraperitoneal administration. Meanwhile, PEG and COOH modifications can ameliorate the activation of IL-6-hepcidin signaling. Long-term exposure of MWCNTs results in AI and extramedullary erythropoiesis. Thus, an adverse outcome pathway is identified: MWCNT exposure leads to inflammation, hepatic hepcidin induction, and disordered iron metabolism. Together, the combined data depict the hazardous secondary toxicity of CNTs in incurring anemia through inflammatory pathway. This study will also open a new avenue for future investigations on CNT-induced indirect and secondary adverse effects.

Abstract
The manipulated synthesis of high-quality semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) is of high significance with respect to the exploration of their properties and their corresponding applications. Nevertheless, the preparation of metastable-phase NCs still remains a great challenge due to their high kinetic barriers and harsh synthetic conditions. Herein, we demonstrated the fabrication of high-quality MnSe nanorods with a metastable wurtzite structure via a subtle sulfur-doping strategy. Based on the UV-vis absorption spectra, manganese polysulfide clusters were formed by mixing oleylamine-sulfur and oleylamine-manganese solutions at room temperature. The existence of manganese polysulfide clusters with polymeric sulfur structures makes the system more reactive, inducing fast wurtzite-phase nucleation. This can overcome the natural kinetic barrier of wurtzite MnSe and lead to subsequent growth of targeted NCs. On the other hand, no sulfur doping would produce MnSe NCs in a thermodynamically favorable rock-salt phase. As expected, different doping contents and sulfur sources also resulted in the formation of high-quality wurtzite MnSe nanorods. This success establishes that a facile strategy can be anticipated to synthesize high-quality metal chalcogenide NCs with a metastable phase, especially wurtzite nanorods, for potential applications from spintronics to solar cells.
