Abstract
The electrospray (ES) technique has proven to be an effective and a versatile approach for crafting drug delivery carriers with diverse dimensions, multiple layers, and varying morphologies. Achieving the desired particle properties necessitates careful optimization of various experimental parameters. This review delves into the most prevalent ES system configurations employed for this purpose, such as monoaxial, coaxial, triaxial, and multi-needle setups with solid or liquid collector. In addition, this work underscores the significance of ES in drug delivery carriers and its remarkable ability to encapsulate a wide spectrum of therapeutic agents, including drugs, nucleic acids, proteins, genes and cells. Depth examination of the critical parameters governing the ES process, including the choice of polymer, surface tension, voltage settings, needle size, flow rate, collector types, and the collector distance was conducted with highlighting on their implications on particle characteristics, encompassing morphology, size distribution, and drug encapsulation efficiency. These insights illuminate ES's adaptability in customizing drug delivery systems. To conclude, this review discusses ES process optimization strategies, advantages, limitations and future directions, providing valuable guidance for researchers and practitioners navigating the dynamic landscape of modern drug delivery systems.

In Situ Precision Cell Electrospinning as an Efficient Stem Cell Delivery Approach for Cutaneous Wound Healing. Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2300970. [PMID: 37379527 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202300970] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Revised: 06/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/30/2023]
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapies have been brought forward as a promising treatment modality for cutaneous wound healing. However, current approaches for stem cell delivery have many drawbacks, such as lack of targetability and cell loss, leading to poor efficacy of stem cell therapy. To overcome these problems, in the present study, an in situ cell electrospinning system is developed as an attractive approach for stem cell delivery. MSCs have a high cell viability of over 90% even with a high applied voltage of 15 kV post-cell electrospinning process. In addition, cell electrospinning does not show any negative effect on the surface marker expression and differentiation capacity of MSCs. In vivo studies demonstrate that in situ cell electrospinning treatment can promote cutaneous wound healing through direct deposition of bioactive fish gelatin fibers and MSCs onto wound sites, leading to a synergic therapeutic effect. The approach enhances extracellular matrix remodeling by increasing collagen deposition, promotes angiogenesis by increasing the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and forming small blood vessels, and dramatically reduces the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) during wound healing. The use of in situ cell electrospinning system potentially provides a rapid, no touch, personalized treatment for cutaneous wound healing.

Abstract
In recent years, researchers have tried to include living cells into electrospun nanofibers or droplets, leading to the field of live cell electrospinning and bio-electrospraying . In live cell electrospinning and bio-electrospraying, cells are embedded in a polymer and subject to the process of mechanical and electrical stimulation of the process. The resulting nanofiber mats or droplets with embedded cells have several potential applications in tissue engineering. The nanofiber structure provides a supportive and porous environment for cells to grow and interact with their surroundings. This can be favorable for tissue regeneration, where the goal is to create functional tissues that closely mimic the extracellular matrix. However, there are also challenges associated with live cell electrospinning and electrospraying, including maintaining cell viability and uniform cell distribution within the nanofiber mat. Additionally, the electrospinning/electrospraying process can have an impact on cell behavior, phenotype, and genotype, which must be cautiously monitored and studied. Overall, the goal of this review paper is to provide a comprehensive and critical analysis of the existing literature on cell electrospinning and bio-electrospraying.

[PMID: 35457107 PMCID: PMC9027729 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23084290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2022] [Revised: 03/26/2022] [Accepted: 04/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
A transplanted stem cell homing is a directed migration from the application site to the targeted tissue. Intrathecal application of stem cells is their direct delivery to cerebrospinal fluid, which defines the homing path from the point of injection to the brain. In the case of neurodegenerative diseases, this application method has the advantage of no blood–brain barrier restriction. However, the homing efficiency still needs improvement and homing mechanisms elucidation. Analysis of current research results on homing mechanisms in the light of intrathecal administration revealed a discrepancy between in vivo and in vitro results and a gap between preclinical and clinical research. Combining the existing research with novel insights from cutting-edge biochips, nano, and other technologies and computational models may bridge this gap faster.
