Biological and physiochemical studies of electrospun polylactid/polyhydroxyoctanoate PLA/P(3HO) scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. RSC Adv 2023; 13:24112-24128. [PMID: 37577093 PMCID: PMC10415749 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra03021k] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2023] [Accepted: 08/01/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Polyhydroxyoctanoate, as a biocompatible and biodegradable biopolymer, represents an ideal candidate for biomedical applications. However, physical properties make it unsuitable for electrospinning, currently the most widely used technique for fabrication of fibrous scaffolds. To overcome this, it was blended with polylactic acid and polymer blend fibrous biomaterials were produced by electrospinning. The obtained PLA/PHO fibers were cylindrical, smaller in size, more hydrophilic and had a higher degree of biopolymer crystallinity and more favorable mechanical properties in comparison to the pure PLA sample. Cytotoxicity evaluation with human lung fibroblasts (MRC5 cells) combined with confocal microscopy were used to visualize mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF 3T3 cell line) migration and distribution showed that PLA/PHO samples support exceptional cell adhesion and viability, indicating excellent biocompatibility. The obtained results suggest that PLA/PHO fibrous biomaterials can be potentially used as biocompatible, biomimetic scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Comparative investigations on environmentally triggered drug delivery and wound healing characteristics of flexible hydrogel composites, Chitosan-Gelatin (C/G) and 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate-Gelatin (H/G); are presented here. These composites, prepared through facile synthesis and curing methods, indicate the potential to smartly respond to the pH changes in wounds by releasing drug simultaneously and aiding in faster healing. An in-vitro investigation of the composite characteristics were included testing for Equilibrium Water Capacity Studies, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) investigations as well as UV based drug release and gravimetric hydrogel degradation profiles. This was followed by cutaneous application testing of the hydrogel systems in balb-c mice. Observations and testing results indicated the potential applicability of the hydrogel systems as dressings for topical/transdermal applications, provided that further detailed in-vivo characteristics are accounted for.

Abstract
The quest for sustainable biomaterials with excellent biocompatibility and tailorable properties has put polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) into the research spotlight. However, high production costs and the lack of bioactivity limit their market penetration. To address this, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) was combined with a bacterial pigment with strong anticancer activity, prodigiosin (PG), to obtain functionally enhanced PHBV-based biomaterials. The samples were produced in the form of films 115.6-118.8 µm in thickness using the solvent casting method. The effects of PG incorporation on the physical properties (morphology, biopolymer crystallinity and thermal stability) and functionality of the obtained biomaterials were investigated. PG has acted as a nucleating agent, in turn affecting the degree of crystallinity, thermal stability and morphology of the films. All samples with PG had a more organized internal structure and higher melting and degradation temperatures. The calculated degree of crystallinity of the PHBV copolymer was 53%, while the PG1, PG3 and PG3 films had values of 64.0%, 63.9% and 69.2%, respectively. Cytotoxicity studies have shown the excellent anticancer activity of films against HCT116 (colon cancer) cells, thus advancing PHBV biomedical application potential.

Preparation, properties, and applications of gelatin-based hydrogels (GHs) in the environmental, technological, and biomedical sectors. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 218:601-633.

Abstract
Gelatin's versatile functionalization offers prospects of facile and effective crosslinking as well as combining with other materials (e.g., metal nanoparticles, carbonaceous, minerals, and polymeric materials exhibiting desired functional properties) to form hybrid materials of improved thermo-mechanical, physio-chemical and biological characteristics. Gelatin-based hydrogels (GHs) and (nano)composite hydrogels possess unique functional features that make them appropriate for a wide range of environmental, technical, and biomedical applications. The properties of GHs could be balanced by optimizing the hydrogel design. The current review explores the various crosslinking techniques of GHs, their properties, composite types, and ultimately their end-use applications. GH's ability to absorb a large volume of water within the gel network via hydrogen bonding is frequently used for water retention (e.g., agricultural additives), and absorbency towards targeted chemicals from the environment (e.g., as wound dressings for absorbing exudates and in water treatment for absorbing pollutants). GH's controllable porosity makes its way to be used to restrict access to chemicals entrapped within the gel phase (e.g., cell encapsulation), regulate the release of encapsulated cargoes within the GH (e.g., drug delivery, agrochemicals release). GH's soft mechanics closely resembling biological tissues, make its use in tissue engineering to deliver suitable mechanical signals to neighboring cells. This review discussed the GHs as potential materials for the creation of biosensors, drug delivery systems, antimicrobials, modified electrodes, water adsorbents, fertilizers and packaging systems, among many others. The future research outlooks are also highlighted.

Abstract
The design and use of new potent and specific antimicrobial systems are of crucial importance in the medical field. This will help relieve, fight, and eradicate infections and thus improve human health. The use of metals in various forms as antimicrobial therapeutics has been known since ancient times. In this sense, polymeric hydrogel matrices as multifunctional materials and in combination with various metal forms can be a great alternative to conventional treatments for infections. Hydrogels possess high hydrophilicity, specific three-dimensional networks, fine biocompatibility, and cell adhesion and are therefore suitable as materials for the loading of active antimicrobial agents and acting in antimicrobial areas. The biocompatible nature of hydrogels’ matrices makes them a convenient starting platform to develop biocompatible, selective, active controlled-release antimicrobial materials. Hydrogels based on acrylate and itaconic acid were synthesized and loaded with silver (Ag+), copper (Cu2+), and zinc (Zn2+) ions as a controlled release and antimicrobial system to test release properties and antimicrobial activity in contact with microbes. The metal ions/hydrogel systems exhibited favorable biocompatibility, release profiles, and antimicrobial activity against methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans microbes, and have shown that they have the capacity to “fight” with the life-threatening infections. Antimicrobial activity depends on types of metal ions, the composition of polymeric matrices, as well as the types of microbes. Designed metal ions/poly(acrylate/itaconic acid) antimicrobial systems have shown to have good potential as antimicrobial therapeutics and suitable biomaterials for medical applications.

Abstract
The present study reported on the potential application of star-shaped
poly(?-caprolactones) with different number of arms as new drug delivery
matrix. Linear and star-shaped PCL ibuprofen loaded microspheres were
prepared using oil-in-water (o/w) solvent evaporation technique and
characterized with FTIR, DSC, XRD and SEM analysis. High yield,
encapsulation efficiency and drug loadings were obtained for all
microspheres. FTIR analysis revealed the existence of interactions between
polymer matrix and drug, while the DSC analysis suggested that drug was
encapsulated in an amorphous form. SEM analysis confirmed that regular,
spherical in shape star-shaped microspheres, with diameter between 80 to 90
?m, were obtained, while quite larger microspheres, 110 ?m, were prepared
from linear PCL. The advantage of using star-shaped PCL microspheres instead
of linear PCL was seen from drug release profiles which demonstrated higher
amount of drug released from star-shaped polymer matrix as a consequence of
their branched, flexible structure. Microspheres prepared from the polymers
with the most branched structure showed the highest amount of released drug
after 24 h. Finally, cytotoxicity tests, performed using normal human
fibroblasts (MRC5), indicated absence of cytotoxicity at lower
concentrations of microspheres proving the great potential of star-shaped
PCL systems in comparison to linear ones.

Abstract
Hydrogel scaffolding biomaterials are one of the most attractive polymeric biomaterials for regenerative engineering and can be engineered into tissue mimetic scaffolds to support cell growth due to their similarity to the native extracellular matrix. The novel, versatile hydrogel scaffolds based on alginate, gelatin, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and inorganic agent hydroxyapatite were prepared by modified cryogelation. The chemical composition, morphology, porosity, mechanical properties, effects on cell viability, in vitro degradation, in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility were tested to correlate the material’s composition with the corresponding properties. Scaffolds showed an interconnected porous microstructure, satisfactory mechanical strength, favorable hydrophilicity, degradation, and suitable in vitro and in vivo biocompatible behavior. Materials showed good biocompatibility with healthy human fibroblast in cell culture, as well as in vivo with zebrafish assay, suggesting newly synthesized hydrogel scaffolds as a potential new generation of hydrogel scaffolding biomaterials with tunable properties for versatile biomedical applications and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are usually caused by trauma, immune diseases, and genetic factors. Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) may lead to limb numbness, muscle atrophy, and loss of neurological function. Although an abundance of theories have been proposed, very few treatments can effectively lead to complete recovery of neurological function. Autologous nerve transplantation is currently the gold standard. Nevertheless, only 50% of all patients were successfully cured using this method. In addition, it causes inevitable damage to the donor site, and available donor sites in humans are very limited. Tissue engineering has become a research hotspot aimed at achieving a better therapeutic effect from peripheral nerve regeneration. Nerve guide conduits (NGCs) show great potential in the treatment of PNI. An increasing number of scaffold materials, including natural and synthetic polymers, have been applied to fabricate NGCs for peripheral nerve regeneration. This review focuses on recent nerve guide conduit (NGC) composite scaffold materials that are applied for nerve tissue engineering. Furthermore, the development tendency of NGCs and future areas of interest are comprehensively discussed.

Abstract
Star-shaped polymers of biodegradable aliphatic polyester, poly( ε-caprolactone), PCL, with different number of arms (three, four, and six) were synthesized by ring-opening polymerization initiated by multifunctional alcohols used as cores. As potential biomaterials, synthesized star-shaped poly( ε-caprolactone)s, sPCL, were thoroughly characterized in terms of their degradation under different pH conditions and in respect to their cytotoxicity. The in vitro degradation was performed in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and hydrochloric acid solution (pH 1.0) over 5 weeks. Degradation of sPCL films was followed by the weight loss measurements, GPC, FTIR, and AFM analysis. While the most of the samples were stable against the abiotic hydrolysis at pH 7.4 after 5 weeks of degradation, degradation was significantly accelerated in the acidic medium. Degradation rate of polymer films was affected by the polymer architecture and molecular weight. The molecular weight profiles during the degradation revealed random chain scission of the ester bonds indicating bulk degradation mechanism of hydrolysis at pH 7.4, while acidic hydrolysis proceeded through the bulk degradation associated with surface erosion, confirmed by AFM. The in vitro toxicity tests, cytotoxicity applying normal human fibroblasts (MRC5) and embryotoxicity assessment (using zebra fish model, Danio rerio), suggested those polymeric materials as suitable for biomedical application.

Cellulose acetate phthalate-based pH-responsive hydrogel was synthesized for fabrication of polymeric matrix tablets for gastro-protective delivery of loxoprofen sodium. Cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) was cross-linked with methacrylic acid (MAA) using free radical polymerization technique. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra confirmed the formation of cross-linked structure of CAP-co-poly(methacrylic acid). Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) confirmed the thermal stability of polymeric networks, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDS) images unveiled that the prepared formulations were porous in nature and thus the developed formulations had shown better diffusibility. Swelling and in vitro drug release was performed at various pHs and maximum swelling and release was obtained at pH 7.4, while swelling and release rate was very low at pH 1.2 which confirmed the pH-responsive behavior of CAP-co-poly(MAA). CAP-co-poly(MAA) copolymer prevents the release of loxoprofen sodium into the stomach due to reduced swelling at gastric pH while showing significant swelling and drug release in the colon. Cytotoxicity studies revealed higher biocompatibility of fabricated hydrogel. Acute oral toxicity studies were performed for the evaluation and preliminary screening of safety profile of the developed hydrogels. Matrix tablets were evaluated for release behavior at simulated body pH. The investigations performed for analysis of hydrogels and fabricated matrix tablets indicated the controlled drug release and gastro-protective drug delivery of CAP-co-poly(MAA) hydrogels and pH-sensitive matrix tablets for targeted delivery of gastro-sensitive/irritative agents.

Abstract
In this study, a porous poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) matrix was fabricated by a paraffin template method, which was used as a substrate to adhere collagen fibers to form an interconnective porous collagen/PHEMA (Col-PHEMA) composite hydrogel. A microscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were employed to characterize the morphology of paraffin microspheres and Col-PHEMA composite hydrogels. The paraffin microspheres with the diameter in the range from 100 to 200 μm were collected by a preset sieve. Then, the interface of uniform paraffin microspheres were thermally bonded to form a contacted template, and the derived Col-PHEMA composite hydrogels had an interconnective porous microstructure. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) indicated that new hydrogen bonds were formed between collagen fibers and the PHEMA hydrogel. Besides, the Col-PHEMA composite hydrogels revealed a high hydrophilicity, good mechanical properties, and good water uptake capacity. The porous Col-PHEMA composite hydrogels showed a good biocompatibility, and the collagen layer may promote the proliferation of fibroblast cells. The Col-PHEMA composite hydrogel is expected to find an application in corneal repairing.

Abstract
An optical biosensor for lactate detection is described. By encapsulating enzyme-phosphor sensing molecules within permeable hydrogel materials, lactate-sensitive emission lifetimes were achieved. The relative amount of monomer was varied to compare three homo- and co-polymer materials: poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) and two copolymers of pHEMA and poly(acrylamide) (pAam). Diffusion analysis demonstrated the ability to control lactate transport by varying the hydrogel composition, while having a minimal effect on oxygen diffusion. Sensors displayed the desired dose-variable response to lactate challenges, highlighting the tunable, diffusion-controlled nature of the sensing platform. Short-term repeated exposure tests revealed enhanced stability for sensors comprising hydrogels with acrylamide additives; after an initial "break-in" period, signal retention was 100% for 15 repeated cycles. Finally, because this study describes the modification of a previously developed glucose sensor for lactate analysis, it demonstrates the potential for mix-and-match enzyme-phosphor-hydrogel sensing for use in future multi-analyte sensors.
