Unraveling devitalization: its impact on immune response and ectopic bone remodeling from autologous and allogeneic callus mimics. Stem Cells Transl Med 2024:szae063.

Abstract
Endochondral bone regeneration is a promising approach in regenerative medicine. Callus mimics (CMs) are engineered and remodeled into bone tissue upon implantation. The long-term objective is to fabricate a sustainable off-the-shelf treatment option for patients. Devitalization was introduced to facilitate storage and using allogeneic (donor) cells would further propel the off-the-shelf approach. However, allogeneic CMs for bone regeneration pose a potential antigenicity concern. Here, we explored the impact of devitalization on antigenicity and osteoinductive bone formation when implanting syngeneic or allogeneic CM in a vital or devitalized state. For this, we implanted chondrogenically differentiated rat-derived mesenchymal stromal cells using an allogeneic immunocompetent ectopic rat model. Vital syngeneic CMs demonstrated the highest bone formation, and vital allogeneic CMs showed the lowest bone formation, while both devitalized CMs showed comparable intermediate levels of bone formation. Preceding bone formation, the level of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining at 7 and 14 days was proportional to the level of eventual bone formation. No differences were observed for local innate immune responses at any time point before or after bone formation. In contrast, allogeneic CMs elicit a mild adaptive immune response, which still permits bone formation in an immunocompetent environment, albeit at a reduced rate compared to the autologous living counterpart. Overall, devitalization delays bone formation when autologous CMs are implanted, whereas it accelerates bone formation in allogeneic CMs, highlighting the potential of this approach for achieving off-the-shelf treatment.

Enhanced effects of slowly co-released TGF-β3 and BMP-2 from biomimetic calcium phosphate-coated silk fibroin scaffolds in the repair of osteochondral defects. J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:453. [PMID: 39080653 PMCID: PMC11290091 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02712-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Bioactive agents have demonstrated regenerative potential for cell-free bone tissue engineering. Nevertheless, certain challenges persist, including ineffective delivery methods and confined therapeutic potency. Here, we demonstrated that the biomimetic calcium phosphate coating system (BioCaP) could effectively uptake and slowly release the incorporated bioactive agents compared to the surface absorption system via osteoclast-mediated degradation of BioCaP coatings. The release kinetics were determined as a function of time. The release rate was stable without remarkable burst release during the first 1 day, followed by a sustained release from day 7 to day 19. Then, we developed the bi-functional BioCaP-coated silk fibroin scaffolds enabling the effective co-delivery of TGF-β3 and BMP-2 (SFI-T/SFI-B) and the corresponding slow release of TGF-β3 and BMP-2 exhibited superior potential in promoting chondrogenesis and osteogenesis without impairing cell vitality in vitro. The SFI-T/SFI-B scaffolds could improve cartilage and bone regeneration in 5 × 4 mm rabbit osteochondral (OC) defect. These findings indicate that the biomimetic calcium-phosphate coated silk fibroin scaffolds with slowly co-released TGF-β3 and BMP-2 effectively promote the repair of OC defects, hence facilitating the future clinical translation of controlled drug delivery in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Critical bone defects resulting in delayed and non-union are a major concern in the field of orthopedics. Over the past decade, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have become a promising frontier for bone repair and regeneration owing to their high expansion rate and osteogenic differentiation potential ex vivo. MSCs have also long been associated with their ability to modulate immune response in the recipients. These can even skew the immune response towards pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory type by sensing their local microenvironment. MSCs adopt anti-inflammatory phenotype at bone injury site and secrete various immunomodulatory factors such as IDO, NO, TGFβ1 and PGE-2 which have redundant role in osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. As such, several studies have also sought to decipher the immunomodulatory effects of osteogenically differentiated MSCs. The present review discusses the immunomodulatory status of MSCs during their osteogenic differentiation and summarizes few mechanisms that cause immunosuppression by osteogenically differentiated MSCs and its implication during bone healing.

Abstract
Rotator cuff tendinopathy is a common musculoskeletal disorder that imposes significant health and economic burden. Stem cell therapy has brought hope for tendon healing in patients with final stage rotator cuff tendinopathy. Some clinical trials have confirmed the effectiveness of stem cell therapy for rotator cuff tendinopathy, but its application has not been promoted and approved. There are still many issues that should be solved prior to using stem cell therapy in clinical applications. The optimal source and dose of stem cells for rotator cuff tendinopathy should be determined. We also proposed novel prospective approaches that can overcome cell population heterogeneity and standardize patient types for stem cell applications. The translational potential of this article This review explores the optimal sources of stem cells for rotator cuff tendinopathy and the principles for selecting stem cell dosages. Key strategies are provided for stem cell population standardization and recipient selection.

Abstract
This study aims to investigate the impact of kappa-carrageenan on dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) behavior in terms of biocompatibility and odontogenic differentiation potential when it is utilized as a component for the production of 3D sponge-like scaffolds. For this purpose, we prepared three types of scaffolds by freeze-drying (i) kappa-carrageenan/chitosan/gelatin enriched with KCl (KCG-KCl) as a physical crosslinker for the sulfate groups of kappa-carrageenan, (ii) kappa-carrageenan/chitosan/gelatin (KCG) and (iii) chitosan/gelatin (CG) scaffolds as a control. The mechanical analysis illustrated a significantly higher elastic modulus of the cell-laden scaffolds compared to the cell-free ones after 14 and 28 days with values ranging from 25 to 40 kPa, showing an increase of 27-36%, with the KCG-KCl scaffolds indicating the highest and CG the lowest values. Cell viability data showed a significant increase from days 3 to 7 and up to day 14 for all scaffold compositions. Significantly increasing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity has been observed over time in all three scaffold compositions, while the KCG-KCl scaffolds indicated significantly higher calcium production after 21 and 28 days compared to the CG control. The gene expression analysis of the odontogenic markers DSPP, ALP and RunX2 revealed a two-fold higher upregulation of DSPP in KCG-KCl scaffolds at day 14 compared to the other two compositions. A significant increase of the RunX2 expression between days 7 and 14 was observed for all scaffolds, with a significantly higher increase of at least twelve-fold for the kappa-carrageenan containing scaffolds, which exhibited an earlier ALP gene expression compared to the CG. Our results demonstrate that the integration of kappa-carrageenan in scaffolds significantly enhanced the odontogenic potential of DPSCs and supports dentin-pulp regeneration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Heart valve disease is a growing burden on the healthcare system. Current solutions are insufficient for young patients and do not offer relief from reintervention. Tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVs) offer a solution that grows and responds to the native environment in a similar way to a healthy valve. Stem cells hold potential to populate these valves as a malleable source that can adapt to environmental cues. AREAS COVERED This review covers current methods of recapitulating features of native heart valves with tissue engineering through use of stem cell populations with in situ and in vitro methods. EXPERT OPINION In the field of TEHVs, we see a variety of approaches in cell source, biomaterial, and maturation methods. Choosing appropriate cell populations may be very patient specific; consistency and predictability will be key to long-term success. In situ methods are closer to translation but struggle with consistent cellularization. In vitro culture requires specialized methods but may recapitulate native valve cell populations with higher fidelity. Understanding how cell populations react to valve conditions and immune response is vital for success. Detrimental valve pathologies have proven to be difficult to avoid in early translation attempts.

Abstract
Biomimetic calcium phosphate (BioCaP) coatings were used to deliver bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), and enhance osteogenesis. However, the mechanism for BioCaP coatings interacting with the immune response during bone regeneration remains unclear. In this preliminary study, the effect of BioCaP coatings on macrophage polarization without (BioCaP group) or with BMP2 (BioCaP+Inc.BMP2 group) was investigated. RAW 264.7 cells were cultured on the rough and platelike surfaces of coatings in BioCaP and BioCaP+Inc.BMP2 groups, while cultured on smooth surfaces in the group without material for 5 days. The BioCaP coatings per se modulated the switch of M1 to M2 phenotype from day 3, which promoted the expressions of Arg1 and CD 206 but reduced the expression of TNF-α compared with No material group. To detect the microenvironmental changes, the concentrations of calcium ion (Ca2+) and inorganic phosphate (Pi), pH values, as well as calcium phosphate crystal pattern were examined. The trends of ionic environmental changes were closely related with macrophage phenotype switch. These results suggest that BioCaP coating itself may affect the macrophage polarization through surface topography, surrounding ionic environment and calcium phosphate crystal pattern.

Abstract
The host immune response to biomaterials is critical for determining scaffold fate and bone regeneration outcomes. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted scaffolds encapsulated with living cells can improve the inflammatory microenvironment and further accelerate bone repair. Here, we screened and adopted 8% methacrylamidated gelatin (GelMA)/1% methacrylamidated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) as the encapsulation system for rat bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) and 3% Alginate/0.5 mg/mL graphene oxide (GO) as the encapsulation system for rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), thus forming a dual-channel bioprinting scaffold. The 8% GelMA/1% HAMA/3% Alginate/0.5 mg/mL GO (8/1/3/0.5) group could form a scaffold with a stable structure, good mechanical properties, and satisfied biocompatibility. When exploring the crosstalk between BMMs and BMSCs in vitro, we found that BMSCs could promote the polarization of BMMs to M2 type at the early stage, reduce the pro-inflammatory gene expression, and increase anti-inflammatory gene expression; conversely, BMMs can promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. In addition, in the model of rat calvarial defects, the dual-channel scaffold encapsulated with BMMs and BMSCs was more effective than the single-cell scaffold and the acellular scaffold. The paracrine of BMMs and BMSCs in the biodegradable dual-channel scaffold effectively promoted the M2-type polarization of macrophages in the microenvironment of early bone defects, avoided excessive inflammatory responses, and further promoted bone repair. In conclusion, our findings suggested that using 3D bioprinting to simultaneously encapsulate two primary cells of BMMs and BMSCs in a dual-channel system may be an effective way to promote bone repair from the perspective of early immune regulation and late induction of osteogenesis.

Acta Histochem 2022; 124:151913.

Abstract
Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a widely used surgical technique to repair bone defects, partly owing to its high efficiency in inducing osteogenesis; however, the process of osteogenesis is complex, and the precise mechanism is still unclear. Among the factors identified for an effective DO procedure, well-controlled inflammation is essential. We aimed to explore how microRNA(miR)-146a, a negative regulator of inflammation, influences osteogenesis in DO. First, we established canine right mandibular DO and bone fracture models to evaluate the expression level of miR-146a in response to these procedures. Second, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were isolated from healthy puppies and cultured with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to observe how inflammation affects osteogenesis. Finally, the osteogenesis activity of BMSCs transfected with lentiviral vector either overexpressing (miR-146a-up) or inhibited for miR-146a expression was evaluated. miR-146a-up-transfected BMSCs were injected locally into the distraction gaps of the DO model canines. On days 42 and 56 post-surgery, the bone volume/tissue volume and bone mineral density values were evaluated via using micro-computed tomography, and newly formed tissues were harvested and evaluated via histological staining. The expression of miR-146a in both the DO canine model and LPS-stimulated BMSCs increased. Overexpression of miR-146a enhanced cell proliferation, migration, and osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, the newly formed callus was improved in canine mandibles injected with miR-146a-up-transfected BMSCs. In summary, miR-146a regulates mandibular DO by improving osteogenesis, and can serve as a potential target to shorten the therapy period of DO.

Abstract
Recently developed modular bioassembly techniques hold tremendous potential in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, due to their ability to recreate the complex microarchitecture of native tissue. Here, we developed a novel approach to fabricate hybrid tissue-engineered constructs adopting high-throughput microfluidic and 3D bioassembly strategies. Osteochondral tissue fabrication was adopted as an example in this study, because of the challenges in fabricating load bearing osteochondral tissue constructs with phenotypically distinct zonal architecture. By developing cell-instructive chondrogenic and osteogenic bioink microsphere modules in high-throughput, together with precise manipulation of the 3D bioassembly process, we successfully fabricated hybrid engineered osteochondral tissue in vitro with integrated but distinct cartilage and bone layers. Furthermore, by encapsulating allogeneic umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (UCB-MSCs), and demonstrating chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation, the hybrid biofabrication of hydrogel microspheres in this 3D bioassembly model offers potential for an off-the-shelf, single-surgery strategy for osteochondral tissue repair.

Abstract
Clinical implementation of endochondral bone regeneration (EBR) would benefit from the engineering of devitalized cartilaginous constructs of allogeneic origins. Nevertheless, development of effective devitalization strategies that preserves extracellular matrix (ECM) is still challenging. The aim of this study is to investigate EBR induced by devitalized, soft callus-mimetic spheroids. To challenge the translatability of this approach, the constructs are generated using an allogeneic cell source. Neo-bone formation is evaluated in an immunocompetent rat model, subcutaneously and in a critical size femur defect. Living spheroids are used as controls. Also, the effect of spheroid maturation towards hypertrophy is evaluated. The devitalization procedure successfully induces cell death without affecting ECM composition or bioactivity. In vivo, a larger amount of neo-bone formation is observed for the devitalized chondrogenic group both ectopically and orthotopically. In the femur defect, accelerated bone regeneration is observed in the devitalized chondrogenic group, where defect bridging is observed 4 weeks post-implantation. The authors' results show, for the first time, a dramatic increase in the rate of bone formation induced by devitalized soft callus-mimetics. These findings pave the way for the development of a new generation of allogeneic, "off-the-shelf" products for EBR, which are suitable for the treatment of every patient.

Abstract
Maxillofacial bone defects are common medical problems caused by congenital defects, necrosis, trauma, tumor, inflammation, and fractures non-union. Maxillofacial bone defects often need bone graft, which has many difficulties, such as limited autogenous bone supply and donor site morbidity. Bone tissue engineering is a promising strategy to overcome the above-mentioned problems. Osteoimmunology is the inter-discipline that focuses on the relationship between the skeletal and immune systems. The immune microenvironment plays a crucial role in bone healing, tissue repair and regeneration in maxillofacial region. Recent studies have revealed the vital role of immune microenvironment and bone homeostasis. In this study, we analyzed the complex interaction between immune microenvironment and bone regeneration process in oral and maxillofacial region, which will be important to improve the clinical outcome of the bone injury treatment.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering goes beyond the limitations of conventional methods of treating bone loss, such as autograft-induced morbidity and a lack of integration for large grafts. Novel biomimicry approaches (using three-dimensional [3D] electrospinning and printing techniques) have been designed to offer the most appropriate environment for cells and thus promote bone regeneration. In the present study, we assessed the bone regeneration properties of a composite 3D honeycomb structure from the electrostatic template-assisted deposition process by an alternate deposition of electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers and electrosprayed hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA) on a honeycomb micropatterned substrate. We first confirmed the cytocompatibility of this honeycomb PCL-nHA scaffold in culture with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). The scaffold was then implanted (alone or with seeded MSCs) for 2 months in a rat critical-sized calvarial defect model. The observation of new bone synthesis in situ (monitored using microcomputed tomography every 2 weeks and a histological assessment upon extraction) demonstrated that the honeycomb PCL-nHA scaffold was osteoconductive. Moreover, the combination of the scaffold with BM-MSCs was associated with significantly greater bone volume and mineralized regeneration during the 2-month experiment. The combination of the biomimetic honeycomb PCL-nHA scaffold with patient mesenchymal stem cells might therefore have great potential for clinical applications and specifically in maxillofacial surgery.

Abstract
Mimicking endochondral bone formation is a promising strategy for bone regeneration. To become a successful therapy, the cell source is a crucial translational aspect. Typically, autologous cells are used. The use of non-autologous mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) represents an interesting alternative. Nevertheless, non-autologous, differentiated MSCs may trigger an undesired immune response, hampering bone regeneration. The aim of this study was to unravel the influence of the immune response on endochondral bone regeneration, when using xenogeneic (human) or allogeneic (Dark Agouti) MSCs. To this end, chondrogenically differentiated MSCs embedded in a collagen carrier were implanted in critical size femoral defects of immunocompetent Brown Norway rats. Control groups were included with syngeneic/autologous (Brown Norway) MSCs or a cell-free carrier. The amount of neo-bone formation was proportional to the degree of host-donor relatedness, as no full bridging of the defect was observed in the xenogeneic group whereas 2/8 and 7/7 bridges occurred in the allogeneic and the syngeneic group, respectively. One week post-implantation, the xenogeneic grafts were invaded by pro-inflammatory macrophages, T lymphocytes, which persisted after 12 weeks, and anti-human antibodies were developed. The immune response toward the allogeneic graft was comparable to the one evoked by the syngeneic implants, aside from an increased production of alloantibodies, which might be responsible for the more heterogeneous bone formation. Our results demonstrate for the first time the feasibility of using non-autologous MSC-derived chondrocytes to elicit endochondral bone regeneration in vivo. Nevertheless, the pronounced immune response and the limited bone formation observed in the xenogeneic group undermine the clinical relevance of this group. On the contrary, although further research on how to achieve robust bone formation with allogeneic cells is needed, they may represent an alternative to autologous transplantation.

Abstract
Healing of fractures and bone defects normally follows an orderly series of events including formation of a hematoma and an initial stage of inflammation, development of soft callus, formation of hard callus, and finally the stage of bone remodeling. In cases of severe musculoskeletal injury due to trauma, infection, irradiation and other adverse stimuli, deficient healing may lead to delayed or non-union; this results in a residual bone defect with instability, pain and loss of function. Modern methods of mechanical stabilization and autologous bone grafting are often successful in achieving fracture union and healing of bone defects; however, in some cases, this treatment is unsuccessful because of inadequate biological factors. Specifically, the systemic and local microenvironment may not be conducive to bone healing because of a loss of the progenitor cell population for bone and vascular lineage cells. Autologous bone grafting can provide the necessary scaffold, progenitor and differentiated lineage cells, and biological cues for bone reconstruction, however, autologous bone graft may be limited in quantity or quality. These unfavorable circumstances are magnified in systemic conditions with chronic inflammation, including obesity, diabetes, chronic renal disease, aging and others. Recently, strategies have been devised to both mitigate the necessity for, and complications from, open procedures for harvesting of autologous bone by using minimally invasive aspiration techniques and concentration of iliac crest bone cells, followed by local injection into the defect site. More elaborate strategies (not yet approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration-FDA) include isolation and expansion of subpopulations of the harvested cells, preconditioning of these cells or inserting specific genes to modulate or facilitate bone healing. We review the literature pertinent to the subject of modifying autologous harvested cells including MSCs to facilitate bone healing. Although many of these techniques and technologies are still in the preclinical stage and not yet approved for use in humans by the FDA, novel approaches to accelerate bone healing by modifying cells has great potential to mitigate the physical, economic and social burden of non-healing fractures and bone defects.

Abstract
We investigated the immunogenicity of allogeneic human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) through the production of alloreactive-CD8 T and -memory CD8 T cells, based on their human leukocyte antigen (HLA) expression. In surface antigen analysis, ADSCs do not express co-stimulatory molecules, but expresses HLA-ABC, which is further increased by exposure to the pro-inflammatory cytokines as well as IFN-γ alone. For immunogenicity analysis, allogeneic ADSCs cultured in xenofree medium (XF-ADSCs) were incubated with the recipient immune cells for allogeneic-antigen stimulation. As a result, XF-ADSCs induced IFN-γ and IL-17A release by alloreactive-CD8 T cells and the production of alloreactive-CD8 T cell through a direct pathway, although they have immunomodulatory activity. In the analysis of alloreactive memory CD8 T cells, XF-ADSCs also significantly induced the production of CFSE-low-CD8 TEM and -CD8 TCM cells. However, HLA-blocking antibodies significantly inhibited the production of CFSE-low memory-CD8 T cells, indicating that HLAs are the main antigens responsible for the development of allogeneic ADSCs' immunogenicity. These results suggested that HLA surface antigens expressed in allogeneic MSCs should be solved in order to address concerns related to the immunogenicity problem.

Abstract
Implantation of chondrogenically differentiated mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) leads to bone formation in vivo through the process of endochondral ossification. The use of allogeneic MSCs for this purpose may be a promising new approach to replace the current gold standard of bone regeneration. However, the success of using allogeneic cells depends on the interaction between the implanted cells and the host's endogenous immune cells. Th17 T cells and other CD4 helper T cell subtypes have been shown to negatively impact chondrogenesis, however, it is unclear how the interaction between these cells affects bone regeneration mediated by these cells. The aim of the current work was to assess the effect of chondrogenic MSC pellets on Th1, Th2, Th17, and regulatory T cells in vitro. Human MSCs were nonchondrogenic (-TGFβ3) and chondrogenically (+TGFβ3) differentiated for 7 or 21 days. Memory T cells (sorted from the CD4 population of peripheral blood mononuclear cells [PBMCs]), as well as total PBMCs were cocultured with allogeneic nonchondrogenic and chondrogenic MSC pellets for 3 days. Seven-day differentiated allogeneic nonchondrogenic and chondrogenic MSC pellets that were cocultured with memory T cells resulted in a significant increase in Th2 and a decrease in Th1 T cells. Furthermore, the co-culture of 21-day differentiated nonchondrogenic and chondrogenic MSC pellets with memory T cells resulted in a significant increase in Th2 and Th17 T cells, as well as a decrease in Th1 and regulatory T cells. Interleukin (IL)-6 was identified as a predominant cytokine involved in this interaction between allogeneic chondrogenically differentiated MSC pellets and memory CD4 T cells, with high levels of IL-6 being secreted in the supernatants of this cocultured condition. The findings of this study highlight the potential of chondrogenically differentiated MSC pellets to alter the ratio of Th1 and Th2 as well as Th17 and regulatory T cell subsets. Additional analysis investigating bone formation by chondrogenically differentiated MSCs in an allogeneic setting may identify a novel role of these T cell subsets in bone regeneration processes mediated by chondrogenically differentiated MSCs. Impact statement Allogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have the potential to be an off-the-shelf treatment for bone repair. However, the lack of knowledge of the immune cells involved in this process has hampered the progression to the clinic. The current study has shown that allogeneic chondrogenic MSCs have the potential to skew the ratio of specific helper CD4 T cell subsets in vitro. This has now provided insight for future in vivo experiments to investigate the role of these T cell subsets in the early stages of bone regeneration mediated by allogeneic chondrogenic MSCs.

Biomaterials and regenerative technologies used in bone regeneration in the craniomaxillofacial region: Consensus report of group 2 of the 15th European Workshop on Periodontology on Bone Regeneration. J Clin Periodontol 2019; 46 Suppl 21:82-91. [PMID: 31215114 DOI: 10.1111/jcpe.13123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 125] [Impact Index Per Article: 25.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2018] [Revised: 04/24/2019] [Accepted: 04/25/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To review the regenerative technologies used in bone regeneration: bone grafts, barrier membranes, bioactive factors and cell therapies. MATERIAL AND METHODS Four background review publications served to elaborate this consensus report. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS Biomaterials used as bone grafts must meet specific requirements: biocompatibility, porosity, osteoconductivity, osteoinductivity, surface properties, biodegradability, mechanical properties, angiogenicity, handling and manufacturing processes. Currently used biomaterials have demonstrated advantages and limitations based on the fulfilment of these requirements. Similarly, membranes for guided bone regeneration (GBR) must fulfil specific properties and potential biological mechanisms to improve their clinical applicability. Pre-clinical and clinical studies have evaluated the added effect of bone morphogenetic proteins (mainly BMP-2) and autologous platelet concentrates (APCs) when used as bioactive agents to enhance bone regeneration. Three main approaches using cell therapies to enhance bone regeneration have been evaluated: (a) "minimally manipulated" whole tissue fractions; (b) ex vivo expanded "uncommitted" stem/progenitor cells; and (c) ex vivo expanded "committed" bone-/periosteum-derived cells. Based on the evidence from clinical trials, transplantation of cells, most commonly whole bone marrow aspirates (BMA) or bone marrow aspirate concentrations (BMAC), in combination with biomaterial scaffolds has demonstrated an additional effect in sinus augmentation and horizontal ridge augmentation, and comparable bone regeneration to autogenous bone in alveolar cleft repair.

Abstract
Tissue engineered cartilage substitutes, which induce the process of endochondral ossification, represent a regenerative strategy for bone defect healing. Such constructs typically consist of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) forming a cartilage template in vitro, which can be implanted to stimulate bone formation in vivo. The use of MSCs of allogeneic origin could potentially improve the clinical utility of the tissue engineered cartilage constructs in three ways. First, ready-to-use construct availability can speed up the treatment process. Second, MSCs derived and expanded from a single donor could be applied to treat several patients and thus the costs of the medical interventions would decrease. Finally, it would allow more control over the quality of the MSC chondrogenic differentiation. However, even though the envisaged clinical use of allogeneic cell sources for bone regeneration is advantageous, their immunogenicity poses a significant obstacle to their clinical application. The aim of this review is to increase the awareness of the role played by immune cells during endochondral ossification, and in particular during regenerative strategies when the immune response is altered by the presence of implanted biomaterials and/or cells. More specifically, we focus on how this balance between immune response and bone regeneration is affected by the implantation of a cartilaginous tissue engineered construct of allogeneic origin.

Rezaei F, Moazzeni SM. Comparison of The Therapeutic Effect of Syngeneic, Allogeneic, and Xenogeneic Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Abortion Rates in A Mouse Model. CELL JOURNAL 2018; 21:92-98. [PMID: 30507094 PMCID: PMC6275426 DOI: 10.22074/cellj.2019.5954] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2018] [Accepted: 06/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Objective Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), due to their immunomodulatory functions, are an ideal candidate
for the treatment of immune-related diseases. Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is one of the most common
complications of pregnancy which in many cases is related to the immune system disorders. Our previous study has
shown that the abortion rate was decreased following the syngeneic MSCs therapy in abortion-prone mice. In this
study, the therapeutic effect of syngeneic, allogeneic, and xenogeneic MSCs was compared in a mouse model of RSA.
Materials and Methods In this experimental study, MSCs were isolated from adipose tissue (ASCs) of CBA/J and
BALB/c mice and human. After characterization, ASCs were injected (IP) at day 4 of gestation to female CBA/J mice
following their mating with DBA/2 male mice. In the control group, phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) was injected and
CBA/J×BALB/c mating was also used as the normal pregnancy control. On day 14.5 of pregnancy, embryo resorption
rate was determined.
Results The abortion rate significantly decreased following the ASCs therapy from syngeneic (6.31%), allogeneic
(6.54%), and xenogeneic group (12.36%) compared to ASCs non-treated group (34.4%). There was no statistical
difference between ASCs treated groups, however syngeneic and allogeneic ASCs reduced the abortion rate more
efficiently than xenogeneic ASC.
Conclusion The abortion rate was significantly decreased following the intraperitoneal administration of ASCs from
various donated sources in abortion-prone mice. These results indicated that the immunogenicity of allogeneic and
xenogeneic ASCs is not a contradictory problem for their therapeutic effects on RSA.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Orthopaedic trauma is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although many fractures tend to heal if treated appropriately either by nonoperative or operative methods, delayed or failed healing, as well as infections, can lead to devastating complications. Tissue engineering is an exciting, emerging field with much scientific and clinical relevance in potentially overcoming the current limitations in the treatment of orthopaedic injuries. Recent Findings While direct translation of bone tissue engineering technologies to clinical use remains challenging, considerable research has been done in studying how cells, scaffolds, and signals may be used to enhance acute fracture healing and to address the problematic scenarios of nonunion and critical-sized bone defects. Taken together, the research findings suggest that tissue engineering may be considered to stimulate angiogenesis and osteogenesis, to modulate the immune response to fractures, to improve the biocompatibility of implants, to prevent or combat infection, and to fill large gaps created by traumatic bone loss. The abundance of preclinical data supports the high potential of bone tissue engineering for clinical application, although a number of barriers to translation must first be overcome. Summary This review focuses on the current and potential applications of bone tissue engineering approaches in orthopaedic trauma with specific attention paid to acute fracture healing, nonunion, and critical-sized bone defects.
