Abstract
Bioactive glasses are inorganic biocompatible materials that can find applications in many biomedical fields. The main application is bone and dental tissue engineering. However, some applications in contact with soft tissues are emerging. It is well known that both bulk (such as composition) and surface properties (such as morphology and wettability) of an implanted material influence the response of cells in contact with the implant. This review aims to elucidate and compare the main strategies that are employed to modulate cell behavior in contact with bioactive glasses. The first part of this review is focused on the doping of bioactive glasses with ions and drugs, which can be incorporated into the bioceramic to impart several therapeutic properties, such as osteogenic, proangiogenic, or/and antibacterial ones. The second part of this review is devoted to the chemical functionalization of bioactive glasses using drugs, extra-cellular matrix proteins, vitamins, and polyphenols. In the third and final part, the physical modifications of the surfaces of bioactive glasses are reviewed. Both top-down (removing materials from the surface, for example using laser treatment and etching strategies) and bottom-up (depositing materials on the surface, for example through the deposition of coatings) strategies are discussed.

Abstract
Bioactive materials based on a nature-derived extracellular matrix (NECM) represent a category of biomedical devices with versatile therapeutic applications in the realms of tissue repair and engineering. With advancements in decellularization technique, the inherent bioactive molecules and the innate nano-structural and mechanical properties are preserved in three-dimensional scaffolds mainly composed of collagens. Techniques such as electrospinning, three-dimensional printing, and the intricate fabrication of hydrogels are developed to mimic the physical structures, biosignalling and mechanical cues of ECM. Until now, there has been no approach that can fully account for the multifaceted properties and diverse applications of NECM. In this review, we introduce the main proteins composing NECMs and explicate the importance of them when used as therapeutic devices in tissue repair. Nano-structural features of NECM and their applications regarding tissue repair are summarized. The origins, degradability, and mechanical property of and immune responses to NECM are also introduced. Furthermore, we review their applications, and clinical features thereof, in the repair of acute and chronic wounds, abdominal hernia, breast deformity, etc. Some typical marketed devices based on NECM, their indications, and clinical relevance are summarized.

Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) is a widely used technique in preclinical and clinical studies due to its predictability. Its main purpose is to prevent the migration of soft tissue into the osseous wound space, while allowing osseous cells to migrate to the site. GBR is classified into two main categories: resorbable and non-resorbable membranes. Resorbable membranes do not require a second surgery but tend to have a short resorption period. Conversely, non-resorbable membranes maintain their mechanical strength and prevent collapse. However, they require removal and are susceptible to membrane exposure. GBR is often used with bone substitute graft materials to fill the defect space and protect the bone graft. The membrane can also undergo various modifications, such as surface modification and biological factor loading, to improve barrier functions and bone regeneration. In addition, bone regeneration is largely related to osteoimmunology, a new field that focuses on the interactions between bone and the immune system. Understanding these interactions can help in developing new treatments for bone diseases and injuries. Overall, GBR has the potential to be a powerful tool in promoting bone regeneration. Further research in this area could lead to advancements in the field of bone healing. This review will highlight resorbable and non-resorbable membranes with cellular responses during bone regeneration, provide insights into immunological response during bone remodeling, and discuss antibacterial features.

Abstract
Cultured meat is a new type of green, safe, healthy, and sustainable alternative to traditional meat that will potentially alleviate the environmental impact of animal farming and reduce the requirement for animal slaughter. However, the cultured meat structures that have been prepared lack sufficient tissue alignment. To create a product that is similar in texture and taste to traditional animal meat, muscle stem cells must be organized in a way that imitates the natural structure of animal tissue. Recently, various scaffold technologies and biomaterials have been developed to support the three-dimensional (3D) cultivation and organization of muscle stem cells. Hence, we propose an overview of the latest advancements and challenges in creating three-dimensional scaffolds for the biomanufacturing of cultured meat.

Histomorphometric Analysis of Differential Regional Bone Regeneration Induced by Distinct Doped Membranes. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14102078.

Abstract
Our objective is to evaluate the regional regenerative potential of calvarial bone in critical-sized defects in a rabbit model using novel nanostructured silica-loaded membranes doped with zinc or doxycycline. Nanostructured membranes of (MMA)1-co-(HEMA)1/(MA)3-co-(HEA)2 loaded with 5 wt% of SiO2 nanoparticles (HOOC-Si-Membranes) were doped with zinc (Zn-HOOC-Si-Membrane) or doxycycline (Dox-HOOC-Si-Membrane). Critical bone defects were created on six New-Zealand-breed rabbit skulls and covered with the membranes. A sham defect without a membrane was used as the control. After six weeks, a histological analysis (toluidine blue technique) was employed to determine the area percentages of newly formed bone, osteoid bone, and soft tissue. The measurements were performed by dividing the total defect area into top (close to the membrane) and bottom (close to the dura mater) regions, or peripheral (adjacent to the old bone) and central (the sum of the remaining zones) regions. The peripheral regions of the defects showed higher osteogenic capacity than the central areas when the membranes were present. The proportion of new bone adjacent to the dura was similar to that adjacent to the membrane only when the HOOC-Si-Membranes and Zn-HOOC-Si-Membranes were used, indicating a direct osteoinductive effect of the membranes.

Abstract
Designing various transplantable biomaterials, especially nanoscale matrixes for bone regeneration, involves precise tuning of topographical features. The cellular fate on such engineered surfaces is highly influenced by many factors imparted by the surface modification (hydrophilicity, stiffness, porosity, roughness, ROS responsiveness). Herein, hybrid matrixes of gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) decorated with uniform layers of nanoceria (nCe), called Ce@GelMA, were developed without direct incorporation of nCe into the scaffolds. The fabrication involves a simple base-mediated in situ deposition in which uniform nCe coatings were first made on GelMA hydrogels and then nCe layered GelMA scaffolds were made by cryodesiccation. In this hybrid platform, degradable GelMA biopolymer provides the porous microstructure and nCe provides the nanoscaled biointerface. The surface morphology and elemental composition of the matrixes analyzed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) show uniform nCe distribution. The surface nanoroughness and chemistry of the matrixes were also characterized using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The presence of nCe on GelMA enhanced its mechanical properties as confirmed by compressive modulus analysis. Substantial bonelike nanoscale hydroxyapatite formation was observed on scaffolds after simulated body fluid (SBF) immersion, which was confirmed by SEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. Moreover, the developed scaffolds could also be used as an antioxidant matrix owing to the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging property of nCe as assessed by 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) assay. The enhanced proliferation and viability of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) on the scaffold surface after 3 days of culture ensures the biocompatibility of the proposed material. Considering all, it is proposed that the micro/nanoscaled matrix could mimic the composition and function of hard tissues and could be utilized as degradable scaffolds in engineering bones.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Although missing tooth is not life-threatening, it affects the quality of daily life. Stem cells have emerged as an important player in the generation and maintenance of many tissues. The role of scaffolds has changed from a passive carrier to a bioactive matrix, which can be used to induce cellular behavior. The aim of this study was to determine the possibility of regeneration of dentin-pulp complex with dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) in an animal model. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this animal study after extraction of DPSCs and cultivation, 10 types of scaffolds were made by using platelet-rich plasma (PRP), cancellous bone, and collagen pad. They were inserted in different parts of the dog's mouth. After the 4th month, the area was operated, and the scaffolds were removed. RESULTS Microscopic examination revealed no sign of cell differentiation and formation of new structures in those models which used collagen scaffolds. However, the dentin-pulp complex emerged in models that the combination of bone scaffolds and PRP or stem cells was used. CONCLUSION Using bone scaffolds in combination with PRP or DPSCs to regenerate dentin-pulp complex in dog helped odontoblastic and pulpal differentiation as well as the formation of predentin and tubular dentin.

Abstract
Block copolymers (BCPs) self-assembly has continually attracted interest as a means to provide bottom-up control over nanostructures. While various methods have been demonstrated for efficiently ordering BCP nanodomains, most of them do not generically afford control of nanostructural orientation. For many applications of BCPs, such as energy storage, microelectronics, and separation membranes, alignment of nanodomains is a key requirement for enabling their practical use or enhancing materials performance. This review focuses on summarizing research progress on the development of anisotropy in BCP systems, covering a variety of topics from established aligning techniques, resultant material properties, and the associated applications. Specifically, the significance of aligning nanostructures and the anisotropic properties of BCPs is discussed and highlighted by demonstrating a few promising applications. Finally, the challenges and outlook are presented to further implement aligned BCPs into practical nanotechnological applications, where exciting opportunities exist.

Efficient drug delivery vehicles of environmentally benign nano-fibers comprising bioactive glass/chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol composites. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 182:1582-1589. [PMID: 34019926 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.05.079] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Revised: 05/09/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Nano-fiber composites have shown promising potential in biomedical and biotechnological applications. Herein, novel nano-fiber composites constituting a blend of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and chitosan (CS) along with different weight ratios of nano-bioactive glass (BG) were prepared by electrospinning. Nano-fibers incorporating 10% (by wt.) of BG were uniform, dense and defect-free with a diameter of 20-125 nm. The model osteoporotic drug (Risedronate sodium) was blended with the electrospinning forming solution and the in-vitro drug release was further studied. About 30% of the drug was released after only 30 min and the release pattern was sustained over 96 h. Drug release took place through a two-stage intra-particle diffusion mechanism. BG-incorporated nano-fibers markedly retarded the drug release profile relative to their BG-free counterparts. They also enhanced the drug release efficiency by releasing 93 ± 4% of the drug. The developed nano-fiber composites can be potentially used as drug-delivery vehicles due to their efficiency and sustained drug release capacity.

Biomimetic tubular scaffold with heparin conjugation for rapid degradation in in situ regeneration of a small diameter neoartery. Biomaterials 2021; 274:120874. [PMID: 34051629 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.120874] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2020] [Revised: 04/27/2021] [Accepted: 05/02/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
To address the clinical need for readily available small diameter vascular grafts, biomimetic tubular scaffolds were developed for rapid in situ blood vessel regeneration. The tubular scaffolds were designed to have an inner layer that is porous, interconnected, and with a nanofibrous architecture, which provided an excellent microenvironment for host cell invasion and proliferation. Through the synthesis of poly(spirolactic-co-lactic acid) (PSLA), a highly functional polymer with a norbornene substituting a methyl group in poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA), we were able to covalently attach biomolecules onto the polymer backbone via thiol-ene click chemistry to impart desirable functionalities to the tubular scaffolds. Specifically, heparin was conjugated on the scaffolds in order to prevent thrombosis when implanted in situ. By controlling the amount of covalently attached heparin we were able to modulate the physical properties of the tubular scaffold, resulting in tunable wettability and degradation rate while retaining the porous and nanofibrous morphology. The scaffolds were successfully tested as rat abdominal aortic replacements. Patency and viability were confirmed through dynamic ultrasound and histological analysis of the regenerated tissue. The harvested tissue showed excellent vascular cellular infiltration, proliferation, and migration with laminar cellular arrangement. Furthermore, we achieved both complete reendothelialization of the vessel lumen and native-like media extracellular matrix. No signs of aneurysm or hyperplasia were observed after 3 months of vessel replacement. Taken together, we have developed an effective vascular graft able to generate small diameter blood vessels that can function in a rat model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Most of the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional (3D) network structure of micro/nanofibers for cell adhesion and growth of 3D. Electrospun fibers distinctive mimicked 2D ECM, however, it is impossible to simulate 3D ECM because of longitudinal collapse of continuous micro/nanofibers. Herein, 3D electrospun micro/nano-fibrous sponge was fabricated via electrospinning, homogenization, shaping and thermal crosslinking for 3D tissue regeneration of cells and vascular. RESULTS Fibrous sponge exhibited high porosity, water absorption and compression resilience and no chemical crosslinked agent was used in preparation process. In vitro studies showed that the 3D short fiber sponge provided an oxygen-rich environment for cell growth, which was conducive to the 3D proliferation and growth of HUVECs, stimulated the expression of VEGF, and well promoted the vascularization of HUVECs. In vivo studies showed that the 3D short fiber sponges had a good 3D adhesion to the chronic wound of diabetes in rats. Furthermore, 3D short fibrous sponges were better than 2D micro/nanofiber membranes in promoting the repair of diabetic full-thickness skin defects including wound healing, hair follicle regeneration, angiogenesis, collagen secretion. CONCLUSION Therefore, electrospun short fibrous sponges are special candidates for mimicking the 3D ECM and promoting 3D regeneration of tissue.

Abstract
The complex interaction of cells with biomaterials (i.e., materiobiology) plays an increasingly pivotal role in the development of novel implants, biomedical devices, and tissue engineering scaffolds to treat diseases, aid in the restoration of bodily functions, construct healthy tissues, or regenerate diseased ones. However, the conventional approaches are incapable of screening the huge amount of potential material parameter combinations to identify the optimal cell responses and involve a combination of serendipity and many series of trial-and-error experiments. For advanced tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, highly efficient and complex bioanalysis platforms are expected to explore the complex interaction of cells with biomaterials using combinatorial approaches that offer desired complex microenvironments during healing, development, and homeostasis. In this review, we first introduce materiobiology and its high-throughput screening (HTS). Then we present an in-depth of the recent progress of 2D/3D HTS platforms (i.e., gradient and microarray) in the principle, preparation, screening for materiobiology, and combination with other advanced technologies. The Compendium for Biomaterial Transcriptomics and high content imaging, computational simulations, and their translation toward commercial and clinical uses are highlighted. In the final section, current challenges and future perspectives are discussed. High-throughput experimentation within the field of materiobiology enables the elucidation of the relationships between biomaterial properties and biological behavior and thereby serves as a potential tool for accelerating the development of high-performance biomaterials.

Abstract
Rising health concerns and increasing obesity levels in human society have led some consumers to cut back on animal protein consumption and switch to plant-based proteins as an alternative. Soy protein is a versatile protein supplement and contains well-balanced amino acids, making it comparable to animal protein. With sufficient processing and modification, the quality of soy protein can be improved above that of animal-derived proteins, if desired. The modern food industry is undergoing a dynamic change, with advanced processing technologies that can produce a multitude of foods and ingredients with functional properties from soy proteins, providing consumers with a wide variety of foods. This review highlights recent progress in soy protein processing technologies. Using the current literature, the processing-induced structural changes in soy protein are also explored. Furthermore, the molecular structure of soy protein, particularly the crystal structures of β-conglycinin and glycinin, is comprehensively revisited.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Maxillofacial bone defects are the main hindering conditions for traditional dental implant strategies. Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) is used to handle this situation. The principle of GBR is to use a membrane to prevent the colonization of soft tissue cells of the bone defect and favors the migration of osteogenic linages. Current membranes do not completely fulfill the requirements that an optimal membrane should have, sometimes resulting in non-predictable results. Thus, the need to develop an ideal membrane to perform this duty is clear. Recent developments in bio-manufacturing are driving innovations in membranes technology permitting the active participation of the membrane in the healing and regenerative process trough native tissue mimicking, drug-delivery and cells interaction, away from being a passive barrier. New membranes features need specific evaluation techniques, beyond the International Standard for membrane materials (last reviewed in 2004), being this the rationale for the present review. Nanotechnology application has completely shifted the way of analyzing structural characterization. New progresses on osteoimmmunomodulation have also switched the understanding of cells-membranes interaction. DATA AND SOURCES To propose an updated protocol for GBR membranes evaluation, critical reading of the relevant published literature was carried out after a MEDLINE/PubMed database search. CONCLUSIONS The main findings are that a potential active membrane should be assessed in its nanostructure, physicochemical and nanomechanical properties, bioactivity and antibacterial, osteoblasts proliferation, differentiation and mineralization. Immunomodulation testing for macrophages recruitment and M2 phenotype promotion in osteoblasts co-culture has to be achieved to completely analyze membranes/tissue interactions.

Abstract
Since their discovery, Black Phosphorus (BP)-based nanomaterials have received extensive attentions in the fields of electromechanics, optics and biomedicine, due to their remarkable properties and excellent biocompatibility. The most essential feature of BP is that it is composed of a single phosphorus element, which has a high degree of homology with the inorganic components of natural bone, therefore it has a full advantage in the treatment of bone defects. This review will first introduce the source, physicochemical properties, and degradation products of BP, then introduce the remodeling process of bone, and comprehensively summarize the progress of BP-based materials for bone therapy in the form of hydrogels, polymer membranes, microspheres, and three-dimensional (3D) printed scaffolds. Finally, we discuss the challenges and prospects of BP-based implant materials in bone immune regulation and outlook the future clinical application.

Abstract
Thermally induced phase separation followed by freeze drying has been used to prepare biodegradable and biocompatible scaffolds with interconnected 3D microporous structures from poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) copolymers containing 5 and 12 wt % of 3-hydroxyvalerate (HV). Solutions of PHBV in 1,4-dioxane, underwent phase separation by cooling under two different thermal gradients (at -25 °C and -5 °C). The cloud point and crystallization temperature of the polymer solutions were determined by turbidimetry and differential scanning calorimetry, respectively. Parameters affecting the phase separation mechanism such as variation of both the cooling process and the composition of the PHBV copolymer were investigated. Afterwards, the influence of these variables on the morphology of the porous structure and the final mechanical properties (i.e., rigidity and damping) was evaluated via scanning electron microscopy and dynamic mechanical thermal analysis, respectively. While the morphology of the scaffolds was considerably affected by polymer crystallization upon a slow cooling rate, the effect of solvent crystallization was more evident at either high hydroxyvalerate content (i.e., 12 wt % of HV) or high cooling rate. The decrease in the HV content gave rise to scaffolds with greater stiffness because of their higher degree of crystallinity, being also noticeable the greater consistency of the structure attained when the cooling rate was higher. Scaffolds were fully biocompatible supports for cell adhesion and proliferation in 3D cultures and show potential application as a tool for tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Nanomaterials can enhance interactions with stem cells for tissue regeneration. This study aimed to investigate the biological effects of tricalcium silicate nanoparticle-containing cement (Biodentine™) during or after setting on stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) to mimic clinically relevant situations in which materials are adapted. Specimens were divided into four groups depending on the start of extraction time (during (3, 6 and 12 min) or after setting (24 h)) and extracted in culture medium for 24 h for further physicochemical and biological analysis. After cell viability in serially diluted extracts was evaluated, odontogenic differentiation on SHED was evaluated by ARS staining using nontoxic conditions. A physicochemical analysis of extracts or specimens indicated different Ca ion content, pH, and surface chemistry among groups, supporting the possibility of different biological functionalities depending on the extraction starting conditions. Compared to the 'after setting' group, all 'during setting' groups showed cytotoxicity on SHED. The during setting groups induced more odontogenic differentiation at the nontoxic concentrations compared to the control. Thus, under clinically simulated extract conditions at nontoxic concentrations, Biodentine™ seemed to be a promising odontoblast differentiating biomaterial that is helpful for dental tissue regeneration. In addition, to simulate clinical situations when nanoparticle-containing cement is adjusted, biological effects during setting need to be considered.

Abstract
Enthesis injury repair remains a huge challenge because of the unique biomolecular composition, microstructure, and mechanics in the interfacial region. Surgical reconstruction often creates new bone-scaffold interfaces with mismatched properties, resulting in poor osseointegration. To mimic the natural interface tissue structures and properties, we fabricated a nanofibrous scaffold with gradient mineral coating based on 10 × simulated body fluid (SBF) and silk fibroin (SF). We then characterized the physicochemical properties of the scaffold and evaluated its biological functions both in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that different areas of SF nanofibrous scaffold had varying levels of mineralization with disparate mechanical properties and had different effects on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell growth and differentiation. Furthermore, the gradient scaffolds exhibited an enhancement of integration in the tendon-to-bone interface with a higher ultimate load and more fibrocartilage-like tissue formation. These findings demonstrate that the silk-based nanofibrous scaffold with gradient mineral coating can regulate the formation of interfacial tissue and has the potential to be applied in interface tissue engineering.

Abstract
Sol-gel-derived bioactive glass nanoparticles have attracted special interest due to their potential as novel therapeutic and regenerative agents. Significant challenges are yet to be addressed. The fabrication of sol-gel-derived nanoparticles in binary and ternary systems with an actual composition that meets the nominal has to be achieved. This work addresses this challenge and delivers nanoparticles in a ternary system with tailored composition and particle size. It also studies how specific steps in the fabrication process can affect the incorporation of the metallic ions, nanoparticle size, and mesoporosity. Sol-gel-derived bioactive glass nanoparticles in the 62 SiO2-34.5 CaO-3.2 P2O5 (mol %) system have been fabricated and characterized for their structural, morphological, and elemental characteristics using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy associated with elemental analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. The fabricated nanoparticles were additionally observed to form the apatite phase when immersed in simulated body fluid. This work highlights the effect of the different processing variables, such as the nature of the solvent, the order in which reagents are added, stirring time, and the concentrations in the catalytic solution on the controlled incorporation of specific ions (e.g., P and Ca) in the nanoparticle network and particle size.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (heart attack) is the number one killer of heart patients. Existing treatments for heart attack do not address the underlying problem of cardiomyocyte (CM) loss and cannot regenerate the myocardium. Introducing exogenous cardiac cells is required for heart regeneration due to the lack of resident progenitor cells and very limited proliferative potential of adult CMs. Poor retention of transplanted cells is the critical bottleneck of heart regeneration. Here, we report the invention of a poly(l-lactic acid)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(N-Isopropylacrylamide) copolymer and its self-assembly into nanofibrous gelling microspheres (NF-GMS). The NF-GMS undergo thermally responsive transition to form not only a 3D hydrogel after injection in vivo, but also exhibit architectural and structural characteristics mimicking the native extracellular matrix (ECM) of nanofibrous proteins and gelling proteoglycans or polysaccharides. By integrating the ECM-mimicking features, injectable form, and the capability of maintaining 3D geometry after injection, the transplantation of hESC-derived CMs carried by NF-GMS led to a striking 10-fold graft size increase over direct CM injection in an infarcted rat model, which is the highest reported engraftment to date. Furthermore, NF-GMS carried CM transplantation dramatically reduced infarct size, enhanced integration of transplanted CMs, stimulated vascularization in the infarct zone, and led to a substantial recovery of cardiac function. The NF-GMS may also serve as advanced injectable and integrative biomaterials for cell/biomolecule delivery in a variety of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) is a biocompatible polymer, but the lack of angiogenesis makes the long-term osteogenic fixation of PEEK implants challenging, which has hampered their wider application in orthopedics. Herein, we develop a multifunctional micro-/nanostructured surface presenting hydroxyapatite (HA) nanoflowers and nickel hydroxide (Ni(OH)2) nanoparticles on PEEK implants (sPEEK-Ni-HA) to tackle the problem. The results show that the reasonable release of Ni2+ from sPEEK-Ni-HA significantly facilitates the migration, tube formation, and angiogenic gene expression of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In addition to angiogenesis, the sPEEK-Ni-HA displays enhanced cytocompatibility and osteogenicity in terms of cell proliferation, spreading, alkaline phosphatase activity, matrix mineralization, and osteogenesis-related gene secretion, exceeding pure and other multifunctional sPEEK samples. Importantly, in vivo evaluations employing a rabbit femoral condyle implantation model confirm that such dual decoration of Ni elements and HA nanoflowers boosts bone remodeling/osseointegration, which dramatically promotes the in vivo osteogenic fixation of implants. Therefore, this work not only sheds light on the significance of angiogenesis on the osteogenic fixation of an implant but also presents a facile strategy to empower bioinert PEEK with a well-orchestrated feature of angiogenesis and osteogenesis.

Abstract
In the management of accelerating wound healing, moist environments play an important role. Compared with other scaffolds of various forms, hydrogels can maintain a moist environment in the wound area. They are cross-linked hydrophilic polymeric networks that resemble natural soft tissues and extracellular matrices. Among them, injectable hydrogels have attracted great attention in wound repair, as they can be injected into irregular-shaped skin defects and formed in situ to shape the contour of different dimensions. The excellent compliance makes hydrogels easy to adapt to the wound under different conditions of skin movement. Here, we oxidized hydroxyethyl starch (O-HES) and modified carboxymethyl chitosan (M-CMCS) to fabricate an in situ forming hydrogel with excellent self-recoverable extensibility-compressibility, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and transparency for accelerating wound healing. The oxidation degree of O-HES was 74%. The amino modification degree of M-CMCS was 63%. M-CMCS/O-HES hydrogels were formed through the Schiff base reaction. The physicochemical properties of M-CMCS/O-HES hydrogels with various ratios were investigated, and M-CMCS/O-HES hydrogel with a volume ratio of 5:5 exhibited appropriate gelation time, notable water-retaining capacity, self-recoverable conformal deformation, suitable biodegradability, and good biocompatibility for wound-healing application. Then, skin wound-healing experimental studies were carried out in Sprague-Dawley rats with full-thickness skin defects. Significant outcomes were achieved in the M-CMCS/O-HES hydrogel-treated group including higher wound closure percentage, more granulation tissue formation, faster epithelialization, and decreased collagen deposition. These findings demonstrate that using the obtained M-CMCS/O-HES hydrogels is a promising therapeutic strategy for wound healing.

Abstract
Chitin-derived hydrogels are commonly used in bone regeneration because of their high cell compatibility; however, their poor mechanical properties and little knowledge of the interaction between the materials and host cells have limited their practical application. Methods: To evaluate osteoinductivity and enhance the mechanical properties of a newly synthesized thermosensitive hydroxypropyl chitin hydrogel (HPCH), a mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-encapsulated HPCH was infused into a three-dimensional-printed poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL)/ nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) scaffold to form a hybrid scaffold. The mechanical properties and cell compatibility of the scaffold were tested. The interaction between macrophages and scaffold for angiogenesis and osteogenesis were explored in vitro and in vivo. Results: The hybrid scaffold showed improved mechanical properties and high cell viability. When MSCs were encapsulated in HPCH, osteo-differentiation was promoted properly via endochondral ossification. The co-culture experiments showed that the hybrid scaffold facilitated growth factor secretion from macrophages, thus promoting vascularization and osteoinduction. The Transwell culture proved that MSCs modulated the inflammatory response of HPCH. Additionally, subcutaneous implantation of MSC-encapsulated HPCH confirmed M2 activation. In situ evaluation of calvarial defects confirmed that the repair was optimal in the MSC-loaded HPCH + PCL/nHA group. Conclusions: PCL/nHA + HPCH hybrid scaffolds effectively promoted vascularization and osteoinduction via osteogenesis promotion and immunomodulation, which suggests promising applications for bone regeneration.

Abstract
For the postoperative treatment of bone cancer, biomaterials should possess an antitumor effect and simultaneous repair ability of bone defects. Compared with single photothermal treatment or magnetothermal treatment, photo/magnetothermal joint treatment represents a more high-efficient strategy to kill tumor cells. In this work, a 3D-printed bioceramic scaffold with a photo/magnetothermal effect was successfully designed and fabricated, which exhibited the function of killing tumor cells and excellent osteogenic bioactivity, via incorporating an Fe element into akermanite (AKT) bioceramics. After doping with ferric elements, the AKT scaffolds possessed significantly enhanced compressive strength and desirable ferromagnetic property. The ferric elements endowed the AKT scaffolds with excellent photo/magnetothermal effects, and hence the scaffolds could efficiently kill tumor cells in vitro under mild laser power density and magnetic field. In addition, the Fe-doped AKT bioceramic scaffolds significantly promoted cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rabbit bone mesenchymal stem cells as compared with the original AKT scaffolds without Fe elements. The results suggest that Fe-doped bioceramic scaffolds with both photo/magnetothermal effect and in vitro osteogenic bioactivity could be a promising biomaterial for the synergistic therapy of bone cancers.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is of great importance worldwide, because of various bone diseases, such as infections, tumors, and resultant fracture, birth defects, and bone loss due to trauma, explosion, or accident. Bone regeneration can be achieved by several materials and templates manufactured through various fabrication techniques. Uses of different materials and scaffold fabrication techniques have been explored over the past 20 years. In this research, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) was used to fabricate highly porous bionanocomposite foams for bone scaffolding. Melt casting and salt porogen (200–500 µm size) leaching methods were adapted to create an adequate pore size and the necessary percent of porosity, because pore size plays a vital role in cell implantation and growth. Porosity (75% and 85%) of the prepared scaffolds was adjusted by changing salt concentrations in the PEEK powder. Hydroxyapatite (HA) and carbon particles were used to improve cell attachments and interactions with the porous PEEK and to increase the mechanical properties of the scaffold materials. Carbon fiber (CF) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were uniformly dispersed into the PEEK powder before melt casting to enhance the mechanical properties and to observe the influence of the carbon particles on the properties of PEEK bionanocomposite foam. Compression test results of the fabricated bionanocomposites showed that HA and carbon particles are the potential filler materials for the enhancement of bionanocomposite mechanical properties. About 186% enhancement of compression modulus and 43% enhancement of yield strength were observed while incorporating only 0.5 wt% of CNTs into PEEK/HA bionanocomposites having 75% porosity, compared to PEEK/HA 20 wt% bionanocomposites. Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) test results reveal that pore size and interconnectivity of the nanocomposite foams are in order and within the designed sizes. Mechanical tests proved that PEEK bionanocomposite foam has the potential for use in bone scaffolding and other biomedical applications.

Abstract
Impact of bone diseases and injury is increasing at an enormous rate during the past decades due to increase in road traffic accidents and other injuries. Bioactive glasses have excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity that makes it suitable for bone regeneration. Researches and studies conducted on several bioactive glasses gives an insight on the need of multi-disciplinary approaches involving various scientific fields to attain its full potential. Of late, a next generation bioactive glass called as mesoporous bioactive glass (MBG) has been developed with higher specific surface area and control over mesoporous structure that presents a new material for bone regeneration. A brief discussion and overview on the potential use of MBG as a suitable material for bone tissue regeneration and biomolecule delivery is included. Additionally, possible control of the structural and functional property based on composition and fabrication techniques are also covered. According to recent researches, MBG-implant interaction with bone forming cells for cellular growth and differentiation as well as its effect on delivery of growth factor, both in vitro and in vivo, are optimistic; yet, the complete efficacy of this material is still to be explored. Hence, in this article we will review the current development and its applications for bone tissue engineering (TE).

Abstract
We report on the specific interaction of a small diamond-like molecule, known as diamondoid, with single amino-acids forming nano/bio molecular complexes. Using time-dependent density-functional theory calculations we have studied two different relative configurations of three prototypical amino acids, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan, with the diamondoid. The optical and charge-transfer properties of these complexes exhibit amino acid and topology specific features which can be directly utilized for in the direction of novel biomolecule detection schemes.

Abstract
The purpose of this research is to assess the feasibility of poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) incorporating gelatin microspheres (PLGA/GMs scaffold) for enhancing osteogenesis in vitro and at a radius defect of rabbits after X-ray radiation in vivo. After incorporating gelatin microspheres, PLGA scaffold demonstrated improved mechanical properties. Moreover, a sustained release property of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) was achieved in BMP-2-releasing PLGA/GMs scaffold. BMP-2-releasing PLGA/GMs scaffold also enhanced proliferation and osteogenesis of rabbit bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in vitro, indicating the bioactivity of BMP-2. After finishing X-ray radiation of the radius bone, 20-mm radius bone defects were generated, followed by being implanted with BMP-2-releasing PLGA/GMs scaffolds with or without bone marrow. Both PLGA/GMs scaffolds containing bone marrow or BMP-2 showed more obvious enhancement for bone regeneration than the empty scaffolds (control) at the radius defect. In the X-ray radiated groups, however, the bone regeneration was inhibited either with bone marrow or BMP-2. When combined with bone marrow, the BMP-2 showed significantly high osteogenic effect, regardless of X-ray radiation. It is considered that it is a promising way to repair bone defects even after X-ray radiation by a combination of bone marrow with the BMP-2-releasing PLGA/GMs scaffold.

[PMID: 31055122 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.04.054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 56] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2018] [Revised: 03/21/2019] [Accepted: 04/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Hydrogels, which provide three-dimensional (3D) niches for encapsulating bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), are becoming a promising tissue engineering solution for chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs. However, it remains a challenge to design a hydrogel material for effective chondrogenesis of BMSCs because of the complexity of cartilage ECM and cell-matrix interactions. Thus far, various studies have shown the physical-chemical cues of hydrogel materials to impact BMSCs chondrogenesis, but the design of the 3D network microstructure of the hydrogel to induce BMSCs chondrogenesis is still far from optimized. In this study, we successfully prepared two types of collagen hydrogels, namely, the fibrous network and porous network, with the same chemical composition and similar mechanical strength but with two distinct network microstructures. The two different network microstructures significantly influenced mass transfer, protein adsorption, degradability, and contraction of the collagen hydrogels. Moreover, the cells presented distinct proliferation and morphology in the two hydrogels, which consequently modulated chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs derived from rat. Collagen hydrogels with a fibrous network promoted more chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs without additional growth factors in vitro and subcutaneous implantation in vivo than those with a porous network. Moreover, fibrous network resulted in less ECM calcification than porous network. However, the fibrous network could not prevent hypertrophy of the chondrogenic cells induced by BMSCs. Overall, these results revealed that the 3D network microstructure of a hydrogel was a key design parameter for the chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Hydrogels had been used to induce the chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in cartilage tissue engineering, but the key design parameters remain unoptimized. This was mainly due to the different material properties including composition, strength, and microstructure, which would interplay with each other and result in difficulties to investigate the effects for one factor. In this study, we fabricated two collagen hydrogels with the same chemical composition and mechanical strength, but two distinct network microstructures. The effects of the two network microstructures on the chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs were investigated by in vitro and in vivo assays. The results highlight the effects of network microstructures and provide important information about optimizing the design of future hydrogels in cartilage tissue engineering.

Multifunctional sulfonated polyetheretherketone coating with beta-defensin-14 for yielding durable and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and osseointegration. Acta Biomater 2019; 86:323-337. [PMID: 30641289 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.01.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 55] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2018] [Revised: 01/07/2019] [Accepted: 01/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
To address periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), a formidable complication after joint arthroplasty, an implant with excellent osseointegration and effective antibacterial activity has being extensively pursued and developed. In this work, the mouse beta-defensin-14 (MBD-14) was immobilized on the polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surface with three-dimensional (3D) porous structure to improve its antibacterial activity and osseointegration. An in vitro antibacterial evaluation showed that the porous PEEK loaded with MBD-14 wages a durable and effective fight against both Staphylococcus aureus (gram-positive) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (gram-negative). In addition to the superior antibacterial activity, we found that the enhanced proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells were verified through various in vitro analyses. To evaluate the in vivo bactericidal effect and osseointegration of the samples, the rat femoral models with infection and non-infection were established. The enhanced osseointegration of the MBD-14-loaded samples was found in both two in vivo models. And no bacteria survived on the surfaces of samples with a relatively high MBD-14 concentration. Above results indicate that the 3D porous PEEK coating loaded with MBD-14 simultaneously yields excellent osseointegration while exerting durable and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. And it paves the way for PEEK to be applied clinically to address PJI. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: (1). By using the physio-chemical technique including sulfonation and lyophilization etc., a three-dimensional porous network is developed on polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surface, in which mouse beta-defensin-14 (MBD-14, a broad-spectrum antimicrobial peptide) is then loaded. It endows PEEK with antibacterial activity and osseointegration. (2). Two in vivo animal models with infection and non-infection are used to prove the new bone formation around the samples. (3). Supplementary material also proves that MBD-14 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. However, its potential mechanism needs to be further studied in future. (4). The modified PEEK, including excellent osseointegration and a durable and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, could be applied clinically to address PJI which is a hot potato for surgeons and patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty.

Abstract
Nanomaterials based on hybrid scaffolds have shown a high potential to promote osteointegration and bone regeneration. In this study, a novel nanocomposite scaffold was synthesized via a cross-linking/hydrothermal/freeze-drying method, resulting in layer-by-layer structures with functional and structural properties mimicking the natural bone. The hierarchical structures of the scaffold were reinforced with nitrogen-doped multiwalled carbon nanotubes (N-MWCNTs), cellulose, and nanohydroxyapatite. The N-MWCNT/Cel/nHA scaffolds were characterized and evaluated in terms of structure, morphology, biocompatibility, cellular responses, and bone repair efficiency in vivo. The resulting scaffolds showed that incorporation of 1 wt % N-MWCNTs into the hybrid scaffold with micropores (∼5 μm) significantly improved its mechanical properties, although the surface morphology of the scaffold tended to be rough and porous. Importantly, the resulting scaffolds supported in vitro cellular attachment, proliferation, viability, and mineralization of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). On the other hand, incorporation of N-MWCNTs into the scaffold induced preferential differentiation of BMSCs to osteogenic lineage accompanied by increased alkaline phosphatase activity and expression of key osteogenic genes. Furthermore, 12 weeks after implantation, the 1%N-MWCNT/Cel/nHA porous scaffolds successfully cicatrized a distal femoral condyle critical size defect in rabbit without obvious inflammatory responses, as indicated by the results of the Micro-CT and histological analyses. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed that the scaffolds not only improved the interface bonding with bone tissue but also accelerated the new bone formation and regeneration by up-regulating signaling molecules that are involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. These results indicated that the novel N-MWCNT/Cel/nHA scaffold is an efficient platform for osteogenesis research and bone regeneration medicine.

Abstract
Graphene-derived materials, such as graphene oxide (GO), have been widely explored for biomedical and biological applications, including cancer research. Despite some recent works proving that GO inhibits the migration and invasion of different cancer cells, so far most of these in vitro studies have been conducted using GO sheets dispersed in solution or as a planar film. On the contrary, little is known about cellular activities, such as cell viability, adhesion, and spreading, when cancer cells interface with GO functionalized hydrogel-based surfaces, biomechanically and structurally more similar to the tumor environment. Here, we evaluate the interactions of human breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) with alginate (Alg)/GO hydrogel-based substrates, and compare them with a cancer cell line from human osteosarcoma (HOS) and healthy murine fibroblasts (3T3). We observed that GO addition selectively inhibits malignant breast cancer cell adhesion efficiency and spreading area, while promotes HOS and 3T3 adhesive processes. Furthermore, we did not observe the same results over Alg substrates with GO nanosheets dispersed in the medium, without embedment into the Alg. This suggests that cancer (MDA-MB-231 and HOS) and healthy (3T3) cell adhesion efficacy does not depend on the cellular tumoral nature and it is driven by the topographical cues provided by the GO-based substrates, whose physical-mechanical characteristics better mimic those of the cell native tissue. We envision that this study can provide a rational for future design and use of graphene-based nanomaterials for cancer research by deepening the knowledge of graphene-cancer cell specific interactions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The fast degradation of vascular graft and the infiltration of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) into the vascular graft are considered to be critical for the regeneration of functional neo-vessels. In our previous study, a novel dual phase separation technique was developed to one-pot prepare macroporous nanofibrous poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA)/poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) vascular scaffold by phase separating the immiscible polymer blend. However, the slow degradation of PLLA/PCL limited cell infiltration. Herein, we hypothesized that poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) would be miscible with PLLA but immiscible with PCL. Then, PLGA can be introduced into the PLLA/PCL blend to fabricate macroporous nanofibrous scaffold with improved biodegradability by using dual phase separation technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS The miscibility of PLGA with PLLA and PCL was evaluated. Then, the PLLA/PLGA/PCL scaffold was prepared by dual phase separation technique. The prepared scaffolds were characterized in terms of the morphology, in vitro degradation, mechanical properties, and cells' infiltration and viability for human vascular SMCs (HVSMCs). Finally, platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) was immobilized on the scaffold and its effect on the bioactivity of HVSMCs was studied. RESULTS PLGA is miscible with PLLA but immiscible with PCL as hypothesized. The addition of PLGA enlarged the pore size and improved the biodegradability of composite scaffold. Notably, PLLA/PLGA/PCL scaffold with the blend ratio of 30:40:30 possessed improved pore interconnectivity for cells' infiltration and enough mechanical properties. Moreover, HVSMCs could grow and infiltrate into this scaffold, and surface modification with PDGF-BB on the nanofibrous scaffold enhanced HVSMCs migration and proliferation. CONCLUSION This study provides a strategy to expand dual phase separation technique into utilizing ternary even multinary polymer blend to fabricate macroporous nanofibrous scaffold with improved physicochemical properties. The prepared PLLA/PLGA/PCL scaffold would be promising for the regeneration of functional tunica media in vascular tissue engineering.

Abstract
Wound repair is a complex and tightly regulated physiological process, involving the activation of various cell types throughout each subsequent step (homeostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling). Any impairment within the correct sequence of the healing events could lead to chronic wounds, with potential effects on the patience quality of life, and consequent fallouts on the wound care management. Nature itself can be of inspiration for the development of fully biodegradable materials, presenting enhanced bioactive potentialities, and sustainability. Naturally-derived biopolymers are nowadays considered smart materials. They provide a versatile and tunable platform to design the appropriate extracellular matrix able to support tissue regeneration, while contrasting the onset of adverse events. In the past decades, fabrication of bioactive materials based on natural polymers, either of protein derivation or polysaccharide-based, has been extensively exploited to tackle wound-healing related problematics. However, in today's World the exclusive use of such materials is becoming an urgent challenge, to meet the demand of environmentally sustainable technologies to support our future needs, including applications in the fields of healthcare and wound management. In the following, we will briefly introduce the main physico-chemical and biological properties of some protein-based biopolymers and some naturally-derived polysaccharides. Moreover, we will present some of the recent technological processing and green fabrication approaches of novel composite materials based on these biopolymers, with particular attention on their applications in the skin tissue repair field. Lastly, we will highlight promising future perspectives for the development of a new generation of environmentally-friendly, naturally-derived, smart wound dressings.

"Green-reduced" graphene oxide induces in vitro an enhanced biomimetic mineralization of polycaprolactone electrospun meshes. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2018; 93:1044-1053.

Abstract
A novel green method for graphene oxide (GO) reduction via ascorbic acid has been adopted to realize bio-friendly reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibrous meshes, as substrates for bone tissue engineering applications. PCL fibrous mats enriched with either RGO or GO (0.25 wt%) were fabricated to recapitulate the fibrillar structure of the bone extracellular matrix (ECM) and the effects of RGO incorporation on the structural proprieties, biomechanics and bioactivity of the nano-composites meshes were evaluated. RGO/PCL fibrous meshes displayed superior mechanical properties (i.e. Young's Modulus and ultimate tensile strength) besides supporting noticeably improved cell adhesion, spreading and proliferation of fibroblasts and osteoblast-like cell lines. Furthermore, RGO-based electrospun substrates enhanced in vitro calcium deposition in the ECM produced by osteoblast-like cells, which was paralleled, in human mesenchymal stem cells grown onto the same substrates, by an increased expression of the osteogenic markers mandatory for mineralization. In this respect, the capability of graphene-based materials to adsorb osteogenic factors cooperates synergically with the rougher surface of RGO/PCL-based materials, evidenced by AFM analysis, to ignite mineralization of the neodeposited matrix and to promote the osteogenic commitment of the cultured cell in the surrounding microenvironment.

Abstract
The present work has explored bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGNPs) and developed strontium-doped nanoparticles (BGNPsSr), envisioning orthopedic strategies compatible with vascularization. The nanoparticles were synthesized by the sol-gel method, achieving a diameter of 55 nm for BGNPs and 75 nm for BGNPsSr, and the inclusion of strontium caused no structural alteration. The nanoparticles exhibited high cytocompatibility for human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and SaOS-2. Additionally, the incorporation of strontium emphasized the tubule networking behavior of HUVECs. Our results demonstrate that the nanoparticle dissolution products encouraged the osteogenic differentiation of human adipose stem cells as it favored the expression of key genes and proteins associated with osteogenic lineage. This effect was markedly enhanced for BGNPsSr, which could prompt stem cell osteogenic differentiation without the typical osteogenic inducers. This study not only supports the hypothesis that BGNPs might play a significant role in osteogenic commitment but also highlights that the designed BGNPsSr is a valuable tool for stem cell "tune-up" in bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
The formation of ordered nanostructures by molecular self-assembly of proteins and peptides represents one of the principal directions in nanotechnology. Indeed, polyamides provide superior features as materials with diverse physical properties. A reductionist approach allowed the identification of extremely short peptide sequences, as short as dipeptides, which could form well-ordered amyloid-like β-sheet-rich assemblies comparable to supramolecular structures made of much larger proteins. Some of the peptide assemblies show remarkable mechanical, optical, and electrical characteristics. Another direction of reductionism utilized a natural noncoded amino acid, α-aminoisobutryic acid, to form short superhelical assemblies. The use of this exceptional helix inducer motif allowed the fabrication of single heptad repeats used in various biointerfaces, including their use as surfactants and DNA-binding agents. Two additional directions of the reductionist approach include the use of peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) and coassembly techniques. The diversified accomplishments of the reductionist approach, as well as the exciting future advances it bears, are discussed.

Abstract
Electrospun biodegradable polymers have emerged as promising materials for their applications in several fields, including biomedicine and food industry. For this reason, the susceptibility of these materials to be colonized by different pathogens is a critical issue for public health, and their study can provide future knowledge to develop new strategies against bacterial infections. In this work, the ability of three pathogenic bacterial species ( Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Listeria monocytogenes) to adhere and form biofilm in electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) microfibrous meshes was investigated. Bacterial attachment was analyzed in meshes with different microstructure, and comparisons with other materials (borosilicate glass and electrospun polylactic acid (PLA)) fibers were assessed. Analysis included colony forming unit (CFU) counts, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and crystal violet (CV) staining. All the obtained data suggest that PCL meshes, regardless of their microstructure, are highly susceptible to be colonized by the pathogenic relevant bacteria used in this study, so a pretreatment or a functionalization with compounds that present some antimicrobial activity or antibiofilm properties is highly recommended before their application. Moreover, an experiment designed to simulate a chronic wound environment was used to demonstrate the ability of these meshes to detach biofilms from the substratum where they have developed, thus making them promising candidates to be used in wound cleaning and disinfection.
