Abstract
For many biomedical applications, material surfaces should not only prevent unspecific protein adsorption and bacterial attachment as in many other applications in the food, health, or marine industry, but they should also promote the adhesion of tissue cells. In order to take a first step toward the challenging development of protein and bacteria-repelling and cell-adhesion-promoting materials, polyamine and poly(amido amine) surface coatings with terminal amine groups and varying structure (dendrimer, oligomer, polymer) were immobilized on model surfaces via silane chemistry. Physicochemical analysis showed that all modifications are hydrophilic (contact angles <60°) and possess similar surface free energies (SFEs, ∼46-54 mN/m), whereas their amine group densities and zeta potentials at physiological conditions (pH 7.4) varied greatly (-50 to +75 mV). In protein adsorption experiments with single proteins (human serum albumin (HSA) and lysozyme) as well as complex physiological fluids (fetal bovine serum (FBS) and human saliva), the amounts of adsorbed protein were found to correlate strongly with the zeta potential of the surface coatings. Both modifications based on linear polymers exhibited good protein repellency toward all proteins examined and are thus promising for testing in cell adhesion studies.

Electrospun PCL/PGS Composite Fibers Incorporating Bioactive Glass Particles for Soft Tissue Engineering Applications. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10050978. [PMID: 32438673 PMCID: PMC7279550 DOI: 10.3390/nano10050978] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2020] [Revised: 05/08/2020] [Accepted: 05/15/2020] [Indexed: 01/28/2023]
Abstract
Poly(glycerol-sebacate) (PGS) and poly(epsilon caprolactone) (PCL) have been widely investigated for biomedical applications in combination with the electrospinning process. Among others, one advantage of this blend is its suitability to be processed with benign solvents for electrospinning. In this work, the suitability of PGS/PCL polymers for the fabrication of composite fibers incorporating bioactive glass (BG) particles was investigated. Composite electrospun fibers containing silicate or borosilicate glass particles (13-93 and 13-93BS, respectively) were obtained and characterized. Neat PCL and PCL composite electrospun fibers were used as control to investigate the possible effect of the presence of PGS and the influence of the bioactive glass particles. In fact, with the addition of PGS an increase in the average fiber diameter was observed, while in all the composite fibers, the presence of BG particles induced an increase in the fiber diameter distribution, without changing significantly the average fiber diameter. Results confirmed that the blended fibers are hydrophilic, while the addition of BG particles does not affect fiber wettability. Degradation test and acellular bioactivity test highlight the release of the BG particles from all composite fibers, relevant for all applications related to therapeutic ion release, i.e., wound healing. Because of weak interface between the incorporated BG particles and the polymeric fibers, mechanical properties were not improved in the composite fibers. Promising results were obtained from preliminary biological tests for potential use of the developed mats for soft tissue engineering applications.

Cell attachment area of rat mesenchymal stem cells correlates with their osteogenic differentiation level on substrates without osteoconductive property. Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2020; 525:1081-1086.

Abstract
Cell morphology is related to proliferation and differentiation. We previously reported that cell attachment area of rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is negatively correlated with their osteogenic differentiation level on osteoconductive hydroxyapatite (HAp) with various microstructures. In this study, the correlation between the cell attachment area and osteogenic differentiation level was investigated on substrates without osteoconductive property using tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS), and 3 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (3Y-TZP) with or without surface periodic microstructures. It was found that the osteogenic differentiation level after 3 weeks of culture increased with a decrease in cell attachment area after 3 h of culture. The square of the correlation coefficient between cell attachment area and osteocalcin secretion content was 0.845 among the three types of substrates. Thus, the negative correlation between cell attachment area and differentiation level is confirmed even when cultured on substrates without osteoconductive property. These findings suggest that the correlation between the cell attachment area of rat MSCs and osteogenic differentiation level could also apply to various types of substrate, regardless of osteoconductive property.

Abstract
It has been widely shown that biomaterial surface topography can modulate host immune response, but a fundamental understanding of how different topographies contribute to pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory responses is still lacking. To investigate the impact of surface topography on immune response, we undertook a systematic approach by analyzing immune response to eight grades of medical grade polyurethane of increasing surface roughness in three in vitro models of the human immune system. Polyurethane specimens were produced with defined roughness values by injection molding according to the VDI 3400 industrial standard. Specimens ranged from 0.1 μm to 18 μm in average roughness (Ra), which was confirmed by confocal scanning microscopy. Immunological responses were assessed with THP-1-derived macrophages, human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and whole blood following culture on polyurethane specimens. As shown by the release of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in all three models, a mild immune response to polyurethane was observed, however, this was not associated with the degree of surface roughness. Likewise, the cell morphology (cell spreading, circularity, and elongation) in THP-1-derived macrophages and the expression of CD molecules in the PBMC model on T cells (HLA-DR and CD16), NK cells (HLA-DR), and monocytes (HLA-DR, CD16, CD86, and CD163) showed no influence of surface roughness. In summary, this study shows that modifying surface roughness in the micrometer range on polyurethane has no impact on the pro-inflammatory immune response. Therefore, we propose that such modifications do not affect the immunocompatibility of polyurethane, thereby supporting the notion of polyurethane as a biocompatible material.

Abstract
Surface functionalization of materials to improve their hemocompatibility is a challenging problem in the field of blood-contacting devices and implants. Polyelectrolyte multilayer films (PEMs), which can mimic functions and structure of an extracellular matrix (ECM), are a promising solution to the urgent need for functional blood-contacting coatings. The properties of PEMs can be easily tuned in order to provide a scaffold with desired physico-chemical parameters. In this study chitosan/chondroitin sulfate (Chi/CS) polyelectrolyte multilayers were deposited on medical polyurethane. Afterwards PEMs were modified by chemical cross-linking and nanoparticles introduction. Coatings with variable properties were tested for their hemocompatibility in the cone-plate tester under dynamic conditions. The obtained results enable the understanding of how substrate properties modulate PEMs interaction with blood plasma proteins and the morphotic elements.

Abstract
Graphene is composed of a two-dimensional (2D) layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice configuration. In this paper, we adopted a green synthetic method of producing reduced graphene oxide using glucose as a reducing and stabilizing agent. We also investigated the fabrication of electrospun nanofibers of glucose-reduced graphene oxide (GRGO) (0-1.0 wt%) reinforced with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as (PG) scaffolds, and chemically crosslinked with acidic glutaraldehyde (GA) in acetone medium to mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) for skin tissue engineering applications. These PG scaffolds were evaluated for morphology, mechanical strength, surface wettability, thermal properties, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility. Field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) revealed an increase in the thickness of nanofibers in PG scaffolds with an increase in the concentration of GRGO. X-ray diffraction and attenuated total reflectance-infrared and Raman spectra showed the GRGO was incorporated in the PVA nanofibrous matrix. As the concentration of GRGO was increased in PG scaffolds, tensile strengths and elongations at break decreased, whereas thermal properties increased. The biological activities of PG scaffolds were evaluated using in vitro hemolysis, using CCD-986Sk (a human skin fibroblast cell line) viability and proliferation assays, and by live/dead cell imaging. Results showed GRGO inclusion in PVA nanofibers caused a slight hydrophilic to hydrophobic shift. PG scaffolds did not cause hemolysis of red blood cells even at a GRGO loading of 1.0 wt%, and PG-1.0 scaffold (with a GRGO loading of 1.0 wt%) exhibited excellent compatibility with fibroblasts and significantly increased metabolic activity after culture for 21 days as compared with PG-0 controls. DAPI staining and live/dead imaging assays showed that all PG scaffolds increased fibroblast proliferation and viability, indicating the potential for skin tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Due to the considerable environmental impact and the controversial animal welfare associated with industrial meat production, combined with the ever-increasing global population and demand for meat products, sustainable production alternatives are indispensable. In 2013, the world's first laboratory grown hamburger made from cultured muscle cells was developed. However, coming at a price of $300.000, and being produced manually, substantial effort is still required to reach sustainable large-scale production. One of the main challenges is scalability. Microcarriers (MCs), offering a large surface/volume ratio, are the most promising candidates for upscaling muscle cell culture. However, although many MCs have been developed for cell lines and stem cells typically used in the medical field, none have been specifically developed for muscle stem cells and meat production. This paper aims to discuss the MCs' design criteria for skeletal muscle cell proliferation and subsequently for meat production based on three scenarios: (1) MCs are serving only as a temporary substrate for cell attachment and proliferation and therefore they need to be separated from the cells at some stage of the bioprocess, (2) MCs serve as a temporary substrate for cell proliferation but are degraded or dissolved during the bioprocess, and (3) MCs are embedded in the final product and therefore need to be edible. The particularities of each of these three bioprocesses will be discussed from the perspective of MCs as well as the feasibility of a one-step bioprocess. Each scenario presents advantages and drawbacks, which are discussed in detail, nevertheless the third scenario appears to be the most promising one for a production process. Indeed, using an edible material can limit or completely eliminate dissociation/degradation/separation steps and even promote organoleptic qualities when embedded in the final product. Edible microcarriers could also be used as a temporary substrate similarly to scenarios 1 and 2, which would limit the risk of non-edible residues.

Abstract
Ultra-low fouling and functionalizable coatings represent emerging surface platforms for various analytical and biomedical applications such as those involving examination of cellular interactions in their native environments. Ultra-low fouling surface platforms as advanced interfaces enabling modulation of behavior of living cells via tuning surface physicochemical properties are presented and studied. The state-of-art ultra-low fouling surface-grafted polymer brushes of zwitterionic poly(carboxybetaine acrylamide), nonionic poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide), and random copolymers of carboxybetaine methacrylamide (CBMAA) and HPMAA [p(CBMAA-co-HPMAA)] with tunable molar contents of CBMAA and HPMAA are employed. Using a model Huh7 cell line, a systematic study of surface wettability, swelling, and charge effects on the cell growth, shape, and cytoskeleton distribution is performed. This study reveals that ultra-low fouling interfaces with a high content of zwitterionic moieties (>65 mol%) modulate cell behavior in a distinctly different way compared to coatings with a high content of nonionic HPMAA. These differences are attributed mostly to the surface hydration capabilities. The results demonstrate a high potential of carboxybetaine-rich ultra-low fouling surfaces with high hydration capabilities and minimum background signal interferences to create next-generation bioresponsive interfaces for advanced studies of living objects.

Abstract
Background and purpose A coronary stent is a well-known cardiovascular medical device implanted to resolve disorders of the circulatory system due to bloodstream narrowing. Since the implanted device interacts with surrounding biological environments, the surface properties of a typical implantable stent play a critical role in its success or failure. Endothelial cell adhesion and proliferation are fundamental criteria needed for the success of a medical device. Metallic coronary stents are commonly used as biomaterial platforms in cardiovascular implants. As a new generation of coronary stents, bioresorbable vascular scaffolds have attracted a great deal of attention among researchers and studies on bioresorbable materials (such as magnesium and zinc) remain a target for further optimization. However, additional surface modification is needed to control the biodegradation of the implant material while promoting biological reactions without the use of drug elution. Methods Herein, precise temperature and thickness controlled atomic layer deposition (ALD) was utilized to provide a unique and conformal nanoscale TiO2 coating on a customized magnesium-zinc stent alloy. Results Impressively, results indicated that this TiO2 nano-thin film coating stimulated coronary arterial endothelial cell adhesion and proliferation with additional features acting as a protective barrier. Data revealed that both surface morphology and surface hydrophilicity contributed to the success of the ALD nanoscale coating, which further acted as a protection layer inhibiting the release of harmful degradation products from the magnesium-zinc stent. Conclusion Overall, the outcome of this in vitro study provided a promising ALD stent coating with unique nano-structural surface properties for increased endothelialization, and as a result, ALD should be further studied for numerous biomedical applications.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to produce antibacterial poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-gelatin (GEL) electrospun nanofiber mats containing clove essential oil (CLV) using glacial acetic acid (GAA) as a "benign" (non-toxic) solvent. The addition of CLV increased the fiber diameter from 241 ± 96 to 305 ± 82 nm. Aside from this, the wettability of PCL-GEL nanofiber mats was increased by the addition of CLV. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis confirmed the presence of CLV, and the actual content of CLV was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Our investigations showed that CLV-loaded PCL-GEL nanofiber mats did not have cytotoxic effects on normal human dermal fibroblast (NHDF) cells. On the other hand, the fibers exhibited antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Consequently, PCL-GEL/CLV nanofiber mats are potential candidates for antibiotic-free wound healing applications.

Abstract
The short- and long-term thrombogenicity of implant materials is still unpredictable, which is a significant challenge for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. A knowledge-based approach for implementing biofunctions in materials requires a detailed understanding of the medical device in the biological system. In particular, the interplay between material and blood components/cells as well as standardized and commonly acknowledged in vitro test methods allowing a reproducible categorization of the material thrombogenicity requires further attention. Here, the status of in vitro thrombogenicity testing methods for biomaterials is reviewed, particularly taking in view the preparation of test materials and references, the selection and characterization of donors and blood samples, the prerequisites for reproducible approaches and applied test systems. Recent joint approaches in finding common standards for a reproducible testing are summarized and perspectives for a more disease oriented in vitro thrombogenicity testing are discussed.

Abstract
Virtually all blood-contacting medical implants and devices initiate immunological events in the form of thrombosis and inflammation. Typically, patients receiving such implants are also given large doses of anticoagulants, which pose a high risk and a high cost to the patient. Thus, the design and development of surfaces with improved hemocompatibility and reduced dependence on anticoagulation treatments is paramount for the success of blood-contacting medical implants and devices. In the past decade, the hemocompatibility of super-repellent surfaces (i.e., surfaces that are extremely repellent to liquids) has been extensively investigated because such surfaces greatly reduce the blood-material contact area, which in turn reduces the area available for protein adsorption and blood cell or platelet adhesion, thereby offering the potential for improved hemocompatibility. In this review, we critically examine the progress made in characterizing the hemocompatibility of super-repellent surfaces, identify the unresolved challenges and highlight the opportunities for future research on developing medical implants and devices with super-repellent surfaces.

Abstract
Functionalized polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) derivatives have great potential in biomedical applications such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, biosensors, dental composites and biomedical devices. Having the above in mind, in this paper, the study of the surface characteristics of binary Langmuir-Blodgett films consisting of an open cage silsesquioxane POSS-poly (ethylene glycol) (POSS-PEG) and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DMPE), as a representative of phospholipid was conducted based on contact angle measurements of three liquids. The measured values of the contact angle (with water, formamide and diiodomethane as the wetting liquids) allowed to calculate surface free energy of the films from van Oss et al. approach. The film structure of the deposited layers was evaluated using an atomic force microscope. Analysis of the obtained results led to the conclusion, that the pure DMPE molecules create agglomerates onto a solid substrate, whereas the POSS-PEG molecules form a homogenous monolayer. After an addition of POSS-PEG to lipid film, changes in the surface properties are visible. The wettability as well as surface free energy depend on the molar ratio of both components. The AFM images shed more light on the changes of the DMPE monolayer topography caused by the POSS-PEG addition.

Abstract
As our ability to engineer nanoscale materials has developed we can now influence endogenous cellular processes with increasing precision. Consequently, the use of biomaterials to induce and guide the repair and regeneration of tissues is a rapidly developing area. This review focuses on soft tissue engineering, it will discuss the types of biomaterial scaffolds available before exploring physical, chemical and biological modifications to synthetic scaffolds. We will consider how these properties, in combination, can provide a precise design process, with the potential to meet the requirements of the injured and diseased soft tissue niche. Finally, we frame our discussions within clinical trial design and the regulatory framework, the consideration of which is fundamental to the successful translation of new biomaterials.

Abstract
A new PPF-BCN/hyPCL32-N3 injectable system that can be cross-linked by catalyst-free, strain promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) click chemistry was developed for tissue engineering applications. The system consisted of two components: PPF-BCN, poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF) functionalized with (1R,8S,9s)-bicyclo[6.1.0]non-4-yn-9-ylmethanol (BCN-OH), and hyPCL32-N3, a hyper-branched 32-arm poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) dendrimer functionalized with azide as the cross-linker core. Fast SPAAC click reaction allowed the desired gelation of the system without using any toxic initiator or catalyst. Compared to the conventional injectable formulation, e.g., poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), our PPF-BCN/hyPCL32-N3 (abbreviated as PFCL-Click) injectable system showed enhanced biocompatibility and low heat generation during cross-linking. After reaction, the cross-linked PFCL-Click scaffolds supported excellent proliferation and differentiation of preosteoblast cells on the surface. The PFCL-Click system can be successfully injected into vertebral bodies of rabbit spine and can be monitored by X-ray imaging after incorporating zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) powder. With these unique advantages, this injectable system has promising potential for bone defect repair and other tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
The development of oral vaccine formulation is crucial to facilitate an effective mass immunization program for various vaccine-preventable diseases. In this work, the efficacy of hepatitis B antigen delivered by bacterial nanocellulose/poly(acrylic acid) composite hydrogel microparticles (MPs) as oral vaccine carriers was assessed to induce both local and systemic immunity. Optimal pH-responsive swelling, mucoadhesiveness, protein drug loading, and drug permeability were characterized by MPs formulated with minimal irradiation doses and acrylic acid concentration. The composite hydrogel materials of bacterial nanocellulose and poly(acrylic acid) showed significantly greater antigen release in simulated intestinal fluid while ensuring the integrity of antigen. In in vivo study, mice orally vaccinated with antigen-loaded hydrogel MPs showed enhanced vaccine immunogenicity with significantly higher secretion of mucosal immunoglobulin A, compared to intramuscular vaccinated control. The splenocytes from the same group demonstrated lymphoproliferation and significant increased secretion of interleukin-2 cytokines upon stimulation with hepatitis B antigen. Expression of CD69 in CD4+ T lymphocytes and CD19+ B lymphocytes in splenocytes from mice orally vaccinated with antigen-loaded hydrogel MPs was comparable to that of the intramuscular vaccinated control, indicating early activation of lymphocytes elicited by our oral vaccine formulation in just two doses. These results demonstrated the potential of antigen-loaded hydrogel MPs as an oral vaccination method for hepatitis B.

Abstract
Surface charge is one of the essential physicochemical properties of titanium surfaces for extracellular protein adsorption. Titanium surfaces are generally electronegatively charged at physiological pH. Typical cellular adhesive proteins and cell membranes are also negatively charged. Therefore, there are no direct electric interactions between proteins and titanium surfaces at physiological pH. The objective of this study was to determine how different electrical charges on titanium surfaces affect protein adsorption. Commercially pure grade-2 titanium disks, 19 mm in diameter and 1.5 mm in thickness, having acid-etched micro-roughed surfaces, were prepared. Electropositive charge was supplied by soaking in LiOH solution at concentrations of 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 M. After LiOH treatment, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were performed. The zeta potential, isoelectric point, and wettability of titanium surfaces were measured. The adsorption levels of proteins, including albumin, laminin, and fibronectin, were evaluated. Osteoblastic cell attachment level was also determined. Incorporation of Li was detected in the oxide layer of titanium without surface morphological modification. The zeta potential was shifted up and the isoelectric point was increased from 3.94 to 5.63 by LiOH treatment. Long-term super-hydrophilicity was also obtained on Li-treated surfaces. The adsorption of albumin and laminin increased with increasing concentration of LiOH treatment solution, whereas fibronectin adsorption was highest upon treatment with 0.25 M. The osteoblastic cell attachment level was shown to be dependent on the amount of fibronectin adsorbed. In conclusion, LiOH treatment enhances biological adhesion on titanium with an increase in surface charge and hydrophilicity. This study suggests that modifying the surface charge provides a direct protein-to-materials interaction and the optimal application of Li should be investigated further.

Abstract
This review gives an overview of protein adsorption at solid/liquid interface. Compared to the other ones, we have focus on three main questions with the point of view of the protein. The first question is related to the kinetic and especially the using of Langmuir model to describe the protein adsorption. The second question is about the concept of hard and soft protein. In this part, we report the protein structural modification induced by adsorption regarding their intrinsic structure. This allows formulating of a new concept to classify the protein to predict their behavior at solid/liquid interface. The last question is related to the protein corona. We give an overview about the soft/hard corona and attempt to make correlation with the concept of hard/soft protein.

Abstract
Toward imitating the natural smartness and responsivity of biological systems, surface interfacial properties are considered to be responsive and tunable if they show a reactive behavior to an environmental stimulus. This is still quite different from many contemporary biomaterials that lack responsiveness to interact with blood and different body tissues in a physiological manner. Meanwhile it is possible to even go one step further from responsiveness to dual-mode switchability and explore "switchable" or "reversible" responses of synthetic materials. We understand "switchable biomaterials" as materials undergoing a stepwise, structural transformation coupled with considerable changes of interfacial and other surface properties as a response to a stimulus. Therewith, a survey on stimuli-induced dynamic changes of charge, wettability, stiffness, topography, porosity, and thickness/swelling is presented here, as potentially powerful new technologies especially for future biomaterial development. Since living cells constantly sense their environment through a variety of surface receptors and other mechanisms, these obedient interfacial properties were particularly discussed regarding their advantageous multifunctionality for protein adsorption and cell adhesion signaling, which may alter in time and with environmental conditions.

Abstract
Cell responses to oxide biomaterials depend on the protein adsorption behavior of the biomaterial surface. Thus, the inherent properties of oxide biomaterial surfaces play a key role in this process. However, commonly used biomaterials, such as calcium phosphate and titanium dioxide, have surfaces with strong mineralization, which may interfere with the ability to clarify the key aspects of the oxide biomaterial regarding protein adsorption and cellular processes. Here, nonmineralized crystalline and vitreous silica were selected as model oxide biomaterials to explore the inherent properties of these materials on the absorption behavior of the functional protein fibronectin (Fn) and on the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). We demonstrated that due to the smaller O1s binding energy, the weaker polarization of oxygen atoms in vitreous silica produced a greater amount of acidic hydroxyls after hydration compared to crystalline silica. These distinct features significantly upregulated the exposure of arginylglycylaspartic acid (RGD) and synergy sites (PHSRN) of Fn and eventually enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs on vitreous silica surfaces through activation of the integrin-linked kinase (ILK) signaling pathway. Our results highlight the key role of inherent oxide biomaterial crystallinity in protein adsorption and cell behavior.

Surfaces based on amino acid functionalized polyelectrolyte films towards active surfaces for enzyme immobilization. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2019; 104:109938. [PMID: 31499948 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2019.109938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2019] [Revised: 05/14/2019] [Accepted: 07/02/2019] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Surface based on polyelectrolytes functionalized with amino acids onto amino-terminated solid surfaces of silicon wafers was prepared, with the purpose of evaluate the chemical functionality of the polyelectrolyte films in adsorption and catalytic activity of an enzyme. In this work, the adsorption of the enzyme glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase from Leuconostoc mesenteroides (LmG6PD) was studied as model. The polyelectrolytes were obtained from poly (maleic anhydride-alt-vinylpyrrolidone) [poly(MA-alt-VP)] and functionalized with amino acids of different hydropathy index: glutamine (Gln), tyrosine (Tyr) and methionine (Met). The polyelectrolytes were adsorbed onto the amino-terminated silicon wafer at pH 3.5 and 4.5 and at low and high ionic strength. At low ionic strength and pH 3.5, the largest quantity of adsorbed polyelectrolyte was on the films containing glutamine moiety as the most hydrophilic amino acid in the side chain of polymer chain (5.88 mg/m2), whereas at high ionic strength and pH 4.5, the lowest quantity was in films containing tyrosine moiety in the side chain (1.88 mg/m2). The films were characterized by ellipsometry, contact angle measurements and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The polyelectrolyte films showed a moderate degree of hydrophobicity, the methionine derivative being the most hydrophobic film. With the aim of evaluate the effect of the amino acid moieties on the ability of the surface to adsorb enzymes, we study the activity of the enzyme on these surfaces. We observed that the polarity of the side chain of the amino acid in the polyelectrolyte affected the quantity of LmG6PD adsorbed, as well as its specific activity, showing that films prepared from poly(MA-alt-VP) functionalized with Met provide the best enzymatic performance. The results obtained demonstrated that the surfaces prepared from polyelectrolytes functionalized with amino acids could be an attractive and simple platform for the immobilization of enzymes, which could be of interest for biocatalysis applications.

Abstract
This article focuses on the relevance of amorphous calcium (and magnesium) phosphates in living organisms. Although crystalline calcium phosphate (CaP)-based materials are known to constitute the major inorganic constituents of human hard tissues, amorphous CaP-based structures, often in combination with magnesium, are frequently employed by Nature to build up components of our body and guarantee their proper functioning. After a brief description of amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) formation mechanism and structure, this paper is focused on the stabilization strategies that can be used to enhance the lifetime of the poorly stable amorphous phase. The various locations of our body in which ACP (pure or in combination with Mg2+) can be found (i.e. bone, enamel, small intestine, calciprotein particles and casein micelles) are highlighted, showing how the amorphous nature of ACP is often of paramount importance for the achievement of a specific physiological function. The last section is devoted to ACP-based biomaterials, focusing on how these materials differ from their crystalline counterparts in terms of biological response.

Abstract
The exceptional hydration of sulfobetaine polymer brushes and their resistance toward nonspecific protein absorption allows for the construction of thin films with excellent antibiofouling properties. In this work, swollen sulfobetaine brushes, prepared by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization of two monomers, differentiated by the nature of the polymerizable group, are studied and compared by a liquid-cell atomic force microscopy technique and spectroscopic ellipsometry. Colloidal AFM-based force spectroscopy is employed to estimate brush grafting density and characterize nanomechanical properties in salt water. When the ionic strength-induced swelling behaviors of the two systems are compared, the differences observed on the antipolyelectrolyte response can be correlated with the stiffness variation on brush compression, likely to be promoted by solvation differences. The higher solvation of amide groups is proposed to be responsible for the lower adhesion force of the barnacle cyprid's temporary adhesive proteins. The adhesion results provide further insights into the antibiofouling activity against barnacle cyprid settlement attributed to polysulfobetaine brushes.

Abstract
Synthetic biological systems are used for a myriad of applications, including tissue engineered constructs for in vivo use and microengineered devices for in vitro testing. Recent advances in engineering complex biological systems have been fueled by opportunities arising from the combination of bioinspired materials with biological and computational tools. Driven by the availability of large datasets in the "omics" era of biology, the design of the next generation of tissue equivalents will have to integrate information from single-cell behavior to whole organ architecture. Herein, recent trends in combining multiscale processes to enable the design of the next generation of biomaterials are discussed. Any successful microprocessing pipeline must be able to integrate hierarchical sets of information to capture key aspects of functional tissue equivalents. Micro- and biofabrication techniques that facilitate hierarchical control as well as emerging polymer candidates used in these technologies are also reviewed.

Abstract
Reconstruction of large bone defects resulting from trauma, neoplasm, or infection is a challenging problem in reconstructive surgery. The need for bone grafting has been increasing steadily partly because of our enhanced capability to salvage limbs after major bone loss. Engineered bone graft substitutes can have advantages such as lack of antigenicity, high availability, and varying properties depending on the applications chosen for use. These favorable attributes have contributed to the rise of scaffold-based polymeric tissue regeneration. Critical components in the scaffold-based polymeric regenerative engineering approach often include 1. The existence of biodegradable polymeric porous structures with properties selected to promote tissue regeneration and while providing appropriate mechanical support during tissue regeneration. 2. Cellular populations that can influence and enhance regeneration. 3. The use of growth and morphogenetic factors which can influence cellular migration, differentiation and tissue regeneration in vivo. Biodegradable polymers constitute an attractive class of biomaterials for the development of scaffolds due to their flexibility in chemistry and their ability to produce biocompatible degradation products. This paper presents an overview of polymeric scaffold-based bone tissue regeneration and reviews approaches as well as the particular roles of biodegradable polymers currently in use.

Abstract
Diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings are well known as protective coatings for biomedical applications. Furthermore, the incorporation of different elements, such as silicon (Si), in the carbon matrix changes the bio-functionality of the DLC coatings. This has also been proven by the results obtained in this work. The Si-DLC coatings were deposited on the Ti6Al7Nb alloy, which is commonly used in clinical practice, using the magnetron sputtering method. According to the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, the content of silicon in the examined coatings varied from ~2 at.% up to ~22 at.%. Since the surface characteristics are key factors influencing the cell response, the results of the cells’ proliferation and viability assays (live/dead and XTT (colorimetric assays using tetrazolium salt)) were correlated with the surface properties. The surface free energy (SFE) measurements, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis demonstrated that the polarity and wettability of the surfaces examined increase with increasing Si concentration, and therefore the adhesion and proliferation of cells was enhanced. The results obtained revealed that the biocompatibility of Si-doped DLC coatings, regardless of the Si content, remains at a very high level (the observed viability of endothelial cells is above 70%).

Abstract
Poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) has become an attractive biomaterial in research and development for past few years. It is natural bio-based aliphatic polyester produced by many types of bacteria. Due to its biodegradable, biocompatible, and eco-friendly nature, PHB can be used in line with bioactive species. However, high production cost, thermal instability, and poor mechanical properties limit its desirable applications. So there is need to incorporate PHB with other materials or biopolymers for the development of some novel PHB based biocomposites for value addition. Many attempts have been employed to incorporate PHB with other biomaterials (or biopolymers) to develop sustainable biocomposites. In this review, some recent developments in the synthesis of PHB based biocomposites and their biomedical, packaging and tissue engineering applications have been focused. The development of biodegradable PHB based biocomposites with improved mechanical properties could be used to overcome its native limitations hence to open new possibilities for industrial applications.

Abstract
Biomaterial-based blood clot formation is one of the biggest drawbacks of blood-contacting devices. To avoid blood clot formation, their surface must be tailored to increase hemocompatibility. Most synthetic polymeric biomaterials are inert and lack bonding sites for chemical agents to bond or tailor to the surface. In this study, polyethylene terephthalate was subjected to direct current air plasma treatment to enhance its surface energy and to bring oxidative functional binding sites. Marine-sourced anticoagulant sulphated polysaccharide fucoidan from Fucus vesiculosus was then immobilized onto the treated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surface at different pH values to optimize chemical bonding behavior and therefore anticoagulant performance. Surface properties of samples were monitored using the water contact angle; chemical analyses were performed by FTIR and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and their anticoagulant activity was tested by means of prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time and thrombin time. On each of the fucoidan-immobilized surfaces, anticoagulation activity was performed by extending the thrombin time threshold and their pH 5 counterpart performed the best result compared to others.

Abstract
The long-term survivability of the implants is strongly influenced by the osseointegration aspects of the metal-bone interface. In this study, biological materials such as fibrinogen and fibrin are used to functionalize titanium surfaces to enhance the ability of implants to interact with human tissues for accelerated osseointegration. The biofunctionalized samples that were assessed by White Light Microscope, Scanning Electron Microscope and Water Contact Angle for surface properties proved samples etched with HF/HNO3 to be better than HCl/H2SO4 in terms of having optimum roughness and hydrophilicity for our further experiments. To further investigate the in vitro osseointegration of the biofunctionalized samples, Osteoblasts were cultured on the surfaces to assess cell proliferation, adhesion, gene expression as well as the mineralization process. Further bacterial adhesion (Enterococcus faecalis) and electrochemical evaluation of surface coating stability were carried out. Results of the study show that the biofunctionalized surfaces provided high cell proliferation, adherence, gene expression, and mineralization compared to other control surfaces hence proving them to have efficient and enhanced osseointegration. Also, bacterial adhesion studies show that there is no augmented growth of bacteria on the biofunctionalized samples in comparison to control surfaces. Electrochemical studies proved the existence of a stable protein layer on the bio functionalized surfaces. Such a method can reduce the time for osseointegration that can decrease risks in early failures of implants due to its enhanced hydrophilicity and cytocompatibility.

Abstract
This study provides a review of the therapeutic potential of graphene dressing scaffolds and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their synergistic effects with respect to cutaneous wound healing. This study also considers their putative action mechanism based on the antibacterial, immunomodulating, angiogenic, matrix remodeling effects of materials belonging to the graphene family and MSCs during the wound healing process. In addition, this study discusses the cytocompatibility of graphene, its uses as a platform for skin substitutes, the properties it possesses with respect to providing protection against microbial invasion as well as strategies aimed at minimizing the chance of the occurrence of sepsis. MSCs are capable of secreting several factors that exert a therapeutic impact on reparative processes and tissue regeneration. In light of experiments conducted to date, graphene combined with MSCs appears to have the potential to enhance both the wound healing process and infection control at the injury site.

Abstract
Orthopaedic surgery comes with an inherent risk of bacterial infection, prolonged antibiotic therapy and revision surgery. Recent research has focused on nanostructured surfaces to improve the bactericidal and osseointegrational properties of implants. However, an understanding of the mechanical properties of bactericidal materials is lacking. In this work, the surface properties of hydrothermal TiO2 nanostructured surfaces are investigated for their effect on bactericidal efficiency and cellular metabolic activity of human osteoblast cells. TiO2 nanostructures, approximately 307 nm in height and 14 GPa stiffness, were the most effective structures against both gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria. Statistical analysis significantly correlated structure height to the death of both bacteria strains. In addition, the surface contact angle and Young’s modulus were correlated to osteoblast metabolic activity. Hydrophilic surfaces with a contact angle between 35 and 50° produced the highest cellular metabolic activity rates after 24 h of incubation. The mechanical tests showed that nanostructures retain their mechanical stability and integrity over a long time-period, reaffirming the surfaces’ applicability for implants. This work provides a thorough examination of the surface, mechanical and wettability properties of multifunctional hydrothermally synthesised nanostructured materials, capable of killing bacteria whilst improving osteoblast metabolic rates, leading to improved osseointegration and antibacterial properties of orthopaedic implants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Promoting the directional attachment of gingiva to the dental implant leads to the formation of tight connective tissue which acts as a seal against the penetration of oral bacteria. Such a directional growth is mostly governed by the surface texture. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this study, three different methods, mechanical structuring, chemical etching and laser treatment, have been explored for their applicability in promoting cellular attachment and alignment of human primary gingival fibroblasts (HGFIBs). RESULTS The effectiveness of mechanical structuring was shown as a simple and a cost-effective method to create patterns to align HGIFIBs. CONCLUSION Combining mechanical structuring with chemical etching enhanced both cellular attachment and the cellular alignment.

Abstract
Protein immobilization in a specific conformation or orientation at an interface is influenced by specific interactions with the outer layer of the surface. A strategy to build-up a complex construct which is able to orient protein molecules, based on metal-cation chelation processes, is reported. The proposed methodology implies the formation of a mercaptoundecanoic acid monolayer on a gold surface that is activated to attach covalently the tripeptide glycyl-l-histidyl-l-lysine (GHK) on the surface, whose sites are then employed to chelate copper ions, providing a selective platform for the orientation of human serum albumin (HSA) molecules. The protein adsorption process on GHK and GHK-Cu(II)-complex surfaces was monitored by the in situ quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) and force spectroscopy technique. The changes in frequency and dissipation factor as well as the D- f plots from QCM-D measurements help to characterize the changes in the protein conformation and are confirmed by force curve spectroscopy results. An improved kinetic model, based on random sequential adsorption with variable protein footprints, has been developed to predict and simulate the experimentally found HSA average surface coverage onto the GHK and GHK-Cu(II)-complex surfaces.

Abstract
There is a growing interest in 3D printing to fabricate culture substrates; however, the surface properties of the scaffold remain pertinent to elicit targeted and expected cell responses. Traditional 2D polystyrene (PS) culture systems typically require surface functionalization (oxidation) to facilitate and encourage cell adhesion. Determining the surface properties which enhance protein adhesion from media and cellular extracellular matrix (ECM) production remains the first step to translating 2D PS systems to a 3D culture surface. Here we show that the presence of carbonyl groups to PS surfaces correlated well with successful adhesion of ECM proteins and sustaining ECM production of deposited human mesenchymal stem cells, if the surface has a water contact angle between 50° and 55°. Translation of these findings to custom-fabricated 3D PS scaffolds reveals carbonyl groups continued to enhance spreading and growth in 3D culture. Cumulatively, these data present a method for 3D printing PS and the design considerations required for understanding cell-material interactions. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Two major challenges faced by medical devices are thrombus formation and infection. In this work, surface-tethered nitric oxide (NO)-releasing molecules are presented as a solution to combat infection and thrombosis. These materials possess a robust NO release capacity lasting ca. 1 month while simultaneously improving the nonfouling nature of the material by preventing platelet, protein, and bacteria adhesion. NO's potent bactericidal function has been implemented by a facile surface covalent attachment method to fabricate a triple-action coating-surface-immobilized S-nitroso- N-acetylpenicillamine (SIM-S). Comparison of NO loading amongst the various branching configurations is shown through the NO release kinetics over time and the cumulative NO release. Biological characterization is performed using in vitro fibrinogen and Staphylococcus aureus assays. The material with the highest NO release, SIM-S2, is also able to reduce protein adhesion by 65.8 ± 8.9% when compared to unmodified silicone. SIM-S2 demonstrates a 99.99% (i.e., ∼4 log) reduction for S. aureus over 24 h. The various functionalized surfaces significantly reduce platelet adhesion in vitro, for both NO-releasing and non-NO-releasing surfaces (up to 89.1 ± 0.9%), demonstrating the nonfouling nature of the surface-immobilized functionalities. The ability of the SIM-S surfaces to retain antifouling properties despite gradual depletion of the bactericidal source, NO, demonstrates its potential use in long-term medical implants.

Abstract
The permanent interaction between bone tissue and the immune system shows us the complex biology of the tissue in which we insert oral implants. At the same time, new knowledge in relation to the interaction of materials and the host, reveals to us the true nature of osseointegration. So, to achieve clinical success or perhaps most importantly, to understand why we sometimes fail, the study of oral implantology should consider the following advice equally important: a correct clinical protocol, the study of the immunomodulatory capacity of the device and the osteoimmunobiology of the host. Although osseointegration may seem adequate from the clinical point of view, a deeper vision shows us that a Foreign Body Equilibrium could be susceptible to environmental conditions. This is why maintaining this cellular balance should become our therapeutic target and, more specifically, the understanding of the main cell involved, the macrophage. The advent of new information, the development of new implant surfaces and the introduction of new therapeutic proposals such as therapeutic mechanotransduction, will allow us to maintain a healthy host-implant relationship long-term.

Abstract
Surface properties like hydrophobicity and morphology of the substrate are essential for cell proliferation affecting its growth, survival and also for its communication with other cells on fabrics. The combination of low surface energy and a specific surface morphology (micro/nano-roughness) leads to significantly less wettable surfaces, known as superhydrophobic characterized by high contact angle above 150° and a very small hysteresis. Such high water repellent coatings feature small area available to be exploited in many applications where interactions with aqueous environment are strongly to be avoided. In this work, the authors have investigated the influence of coating polyester fabric at different degree of hydrophobicity by mixed organic-inorganic coating with moderated to highly water repellence. Depending on the coating composition and structure, the hydrophobicity of the fabric can be finely modulated by an easy-to-prepare method applicable to commercial, low cost fabric substrates providing advanced performance. In vitro experiments have been performed in order to establish the influence of surface modification on adhesion of representative model mammalian cell lines such as 3T3 fibroblasts, HaCaT keratinocytes and HeLa epithelial carcinoma cells. The obtained results suggested that, in addition to the chemistry and morphology of the coating, the characteristics of the substrate are important parameters on the final cell viabilities.

Abstract
A dual functional polyurethane (PU) film that mimics aspects of blood vessel inner surfaces by combining surface texturing and nitric oxide (NO) release was fabricated through a soft lithography two-stage replication process. The fabrication of submicron textures on the polymer surface was followed by solvent impregnation with the NO donor, S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP). An in vitro plasma coagulation assay showed that the biomimetic surface significantly increased the plasma coagulation time and also exhibited reduced platelet adhesion and activation, thereby reducing the risk of blood coagulation and thrombosis. A contact activation assay for coagulation factor XII (FXII) demonstrated that both NO release and surface texturing also reduced FXII contact activation, which contributes to the inhibition of plasma coagulation. The biomimetic surface was also evaluated for bacterial adhesion in plasma and results demonstrate that this combined strategy enables a synergistic effect to reduce bacterial adhesion of Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa microorganisms. The results strongly suggest that the biomimetic modification with surface texturing and NO release provides an effective approach to improve the biocompatibility of polymeric materials in combating thrombosis and microbial infection. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: (1) Developed a dual functional polyurethane (PU) film that mimics blood vessel inner surface by combining surface texturing and nitric oxide (NO) release for combatting biomaterial associated thrombosis and microbial infection. (2) Studied the blood coagulation response and bacterial adhesion to such biomimetic PU surfaces, and demonstrated that the combination of surface texturing and NO release synergistically reduced the platelet adhesion and bacterial adhesion in plasma, providing an effective approach to improve the biocompatibility of biomaterials used in blood-contacting medical devices. (3) The NO releasing surface significantly inhibits the plasma coagulation via the reduction of contact activation of FXII, indicating the multifunctional roles of NO in improving the biocompatibility of biomaterials in blood-contacting medical devices.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are one of the main causes of mortality in the modern world. Scientist all around the world are trying to improve medical treatment, but the success of the treatment significantly depends on the stage of disease progression. In the last phase of disease, the treatment is possible only by implantation of artificial graft. Most commonly used materials for artificial grafts are polymer materials. Despite different industrial procedures for graft fabrication, their properties are still not optimal. Grafts with small diameters (<6 mm) are the most problematic, because the platelets are more likely to re-adhere. This causes thrombus formation. Recent findings indicate that platelet adhesion is primarily influenced by blood plasma proteins that adsorb to the surface immediately after contact of a synthetic material with blood. Fibrinogen is a key blood protein responsible for the mechanisms of activation, adhesion and aggregation of platelets. Plasma treatment is considered as one of the promising methods for improving hemocompatibility of synthetic materials. Another method is endothelialization of materials with Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial cells, thus forming a uniform layer of endothelial cells on the surface. Extensive literature review led to the conclusion that in this area, despite numerous studies there are no available standardized methods for testing the hemocompatibility of biomaterials. In this review paper, the most promising methods to gain biocompatibility of synthetic materials are reported; several hypotheses to explain the improvement in hemocompatibility of plasma treated polymer surfaces are proposed.
