Abstract
The slight release of substance P (SP) from the end of peripheral nerve fibers causes a neurogenic inflammatory reaction, promotes vascular dilation and increases vascular permeability. However, whether SP can promote the angiogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) under high glucose conditions has not been reported. This study analyzed the targets, biological processes and molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of SP on BMSCs. BMSCs cultured in vitro were divided into a normal control group, high glucose control group, high glucose SP group and high glucose Akt inhibitor group to verify the effects of SP on BMSCs proliferation, migration and angiogenic differentiation. SP was found to act on 28 targets of BMSCs and participate in angiogenesis. Thirty-six core proteins, including AKT1, APP, BRCA1, CREBBP and EGFR, were identified. In a high glucose environment, SP increased the BMSCs proliferation optical density value and cell migration number and reduced the BMSCs apoptosis rate. In addition, SP induced BMSCs to highly express the CD31 protein, maintain the wall structure integrity of the matrix glue mesh and promote increases in the number of matrix glue meshes. These experiments showed that in a high glucose environment, SP acts on 28 targets of BMSCs that encode core proteins, such as AKT1, APP and BRCA1, and improves BMSCs proliferation, migration and angiogenic differentiation through the Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by various factors may cause morphological and functional disorders that can seriously affect patient's quality of life. Autologous bone grafting is morbid, involves numerous complications, and provides limited volume at donor site. Hence, tissue-engineered bone is a better alternative for repair of bone defects and for promoting a patient's functional recovery. Besides good biocompatibility, scaffolding materials represented by hydroxyapatite (HA) composites in tissue-engineered bone also have strong ability to guide bone regeneration. The development of manufacturing technology and advances in material science have made HA composite scaffolding more closely related to the composition and mechanical properties of natural bone. The surface morphology and pore diameter of the scaffold material are more important for cell proliferation, differentiation, and nutrient exchange. The degradation rate of the composite scaffold should match the rate of osteogenesis, and the loading of cells/cytokine is beneficial to promote the formation of new bone. In conclusion, there is no doubt that a breakthrough has been made in composition, mechanical properties, and degradation of HA composites. Biomimetic tissue-engineered bone based on vascularization and innervation show a promising future.

Kale VP. A chimeric feeder comprising transforming growth factor beta 1- and basic fibroblast growth factor-primed bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells suppresses the expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells.

Abstract
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) physically associate with the hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), forming a unique HSC niche. Owing to this proximity, the signaling mechanisms prevailing in the BMSCs affect the fate of the HSCs. In addition to cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions, various cytokines and growth factors present in the BM milieu evoke signaling mechanisms in the BMSCs. Previously, I have shown that priming of human BMSCs with transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), a cytokine consistently found at active sites of hematopoiesis, boosts their hematopoiesis-supportive ability. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), another cytokine present in the marrow microenvironment, positively regulates hematopoiesis. Hence, I examined whether priming human BMSCs with bFGF improves their hematopoiesis-supportive ability. I found that bFGF-primed BMSCs stimulate hematopoiesis, as seen by a significant increase in colony formation from the bone marrow cells briefly interacted with them and the extensive proliferation of CD34+ HSCs cocultured with them. However, contrary to my expectation, I found that chimeric feeders comprising a mixture of TGF-primed and bFGF-primed BMSCs exerted a suppressive effect. These data demonstrate that though the TGF- and bFGF-primed BMSCs exert a salutary effect on hematopoiesis when used independently, they exert a suppressive effect when presented as a chimera. These findings suggest that the combinatorial effect of various priming agents and cytokines on the functionality of BMSCs toward the target tissues needs to be critically evaluated before they are clinically applied.

Abstract
Rapid vascularization of clinical-size bone grafts is an unsolved challenge in regenerative medicine. Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF) is the master regulator of angiogenesis. Its over-expression by genetically modified human osteoprogenitors has been previously evaluated to drive vascularization in osteogenic grafts, but has been observed to cause paradoxical bone loss through excessive osteoclast recruitment. However, during bone development angiogenesis and osteogenesis are physiologically coupled by VEGF expression. Here we investigated whether the mode of VEGF delivery may be a key to recapitulate its physiological function. VEGF activity requires binding to the extracellular matrix, and heterogeneous levels of expression lead to localized microenvironments of excessive dose. Therefore we hypothesized that a homogeneous distribution of matrix-associated factor in the microenvironment may enable efficient coupling of angiogenesis and bone formation. This was achieved by decorating fibrin matrices with a cross-linkable engineered version of VEGF (TG-VEGF) that is released only by enzymatic cleavage by invading cells. In ectopic grafts, both TG-VEGF and VEGF-expressing progenitors similarly improved vascularization within the first week, but efficient bone formation was possible only in the factor-decorated matrices, whereas heterogenous, cell-based VEGF expression caused significant bone loss. In critical-size orthotopic calvaria defects, TG-VEGF effectively improved early vascular invasion, osteoprogenitor survival and differentiation, as well as bone repair compared to both controls and VEGF-expressing progenitors. In conclusion, homogenous distribution of matrix-associated VEGF protein preserves the physiological coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis, providing an attractive and clinically applicable strategy to engineer vascularized bone. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The therapeutic regeneration of vascularized bone is an unsolved challenge in regenerative medicine. Stimulation of blood vessel growth by over-expression of VEGF has been associated with paradoxical bone loss, whereas angiogenesis and osteogenesis are physiologically coupled by VEGF during development. Here we found that controlling the distribution of VEGF dose in an osteogenic graft is key to recapitulate its physiological function. In fact, homogeneous decoration of fibrin matrices with engineered VEGF could improve both vascularization and bone formation in orthotopic critical-size defects, dispensing with the need for combined osteogenic factor delivery. VEGF-decorated fibrin matrices provide a readily translatable platform for engineering a controlled microenvironment for bone regeneration.
