[PMID: 38855731 PMCID: PMC11162223 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s462691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) stents have broad application prospects in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases due to their excellent mechanical properties and biodegradability. However, foreign body reactions caused by stent implantation remain a bottleneck that limits the clinical application of PLLA stents. To solve this problem, the biocompatibility of PLLA stents must be urgently improved. Albumin, the most abundant inert protein in the blood, possesses the ability to modify the surface of biomaterials, mitigating foreign body reactions-a phenomenon described as the "stealth effect". In recent years, a strategy based on albumin camouflage has become a focal point in nanomedicine delivery and tissue engineering research. Therefore, albumin surface modification is anticipated to enhance the surface biological characteristics required for vascular stents. However, the therapeutic applicability of this modification has not been fully explored. Methods Herein, a bionic albumin (PDA-BSA) coating was constructed on the surface of PLLA by a mussel-inspired surface modification technique using polydopamine (PDA) to enhance the immobilization of bovine serum albumin (BSA). Results Surface characterization revealed that the PDA-BSA coating was successfully constructed on the surface of PLLA materials, significantly improving their hydrophilicity. Furthermore, in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrated that this PDA-BSA coating enhanced the anticoagulant properties and pro-endothelialization effects of the PLLA material surface while inhibiting the inflammatory response and neointimal hyperplasia at the implantation site. Conclusion These findings suggest that the PDA-BSA coating provides a multifunctional biointerface for PLLA stent materials, markedly improving their biocompatibility. Further research into the diverse applications of this coating in vascular implants is warranted.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death and current treatments such as stents still suffer from disadvantages. Balloon expansion causes damage to the arterial wall and limited and delayed endothelialization gives rise to restenosis and thrombosis. New more performing materials that circumvent these disadvantages are required to improve the success rate of interventions. To this end, the use of a novel polymer, poly(hexamethylene terephthalate), is investigated for this application. The synthesis to obtain polymers with high molar masses up to 126.5 kg mol-1 is optimized and a thorough chemical and thermal analysis is performed. The polymers are 3D-printed into personalized cardiovascular stents using the state-of-the-art solvent-cast direct-writing technique, the potential of these stents to expand using their shape memory behavior is established, and it is shown that the stents are more resistant to compression than the poly(l-lactide) benchmark. Furthermore, the polymer's hydrolytic stability is demonstrated in an accelerated degradation study of 6 months. Finally, the stents are subjected to an in vitro biological evaluation, revealing that the polymer is non-hemolytic and supports significant endothelialization after only 7 days, demonstrating the enormous potential of these polymers to serve cardiovascular applications.

Abstract
Magnesium alloy stents have been extensively studied in the field of biodegradable metal stents due to their exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability and excellent biomechanical properties. Nevertheless, the specific in vivo service environment causes magnesium alloy stents to degrade rapidly and fail to provide sufficient support for a certain time. Compared to previous reviews, this paper focuses on presenting an overview of the development history, the key issues, mechanistic analysis, traditional protection strategies and new directions and protection strategies for magnesium alloy stents. Alloying, optimizing stent design and preparing coatings have improved the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy stents. Based on the corrosion mechanism of magnesium alloy stents, as well as their deformation during use and environmental characteristics, we present some novel strategies aimed at reducing the degradation rate of magnesium alloys and enhancing the comprehensive performance of magnesium alloy stents. These strategies include adapting coatings for the deformation of the stents, preparing rapid endothelialization coatings to enhance the service environment of the stents, and constructing coatings with self-healing functions. It is hoped that this review can help readers understand the development of magnesium alloy cardiovascular stents and solve the problems related to magnesium alloy stents in clinical applications at the early implantation stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The first-pass complete recanalization by mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for the treatment of stroke remains limited due to the poor integration of the clot within current devices. Aspiration can help retrieval of the main clot but fails to prevent secondary embolism in the distal arterial territory. The dense meshes of extracellular DNA, recently described in stroke-related clots, might serve as an anchoring platform for MT devices. We aimed to evaluate the potential of a DNA-reacting surface to aid the retention of both the main clot and small fragments within the thrombectomy device to improve the potential of MT procedures. METHODS Device-suitable alloy samples were coated with 15 different compounds and put in contact with extracellular DNA or with human peripheral whole blood, to compare their binding to DNA versus blood elements in vitro. Clinical-grade MT devices were coated with two selected compounds and evaluated in functional bench tests to study clot retrieval efficacy and quantify distal emboli using an M1 occlusion model. RESULTS Binding properties of samples coated with all compounds were increased for DNA (≈3-fold) and decreased (≈5-fold) for blood elements, as compared with the bare alloy samples in vitro. Functional testing showed that surface modification with DNA-binding compounds improved clot retrieval and significantly reduced distal emboli during experimental MT of large vessel occlusion in a three-dimensional model. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that clot retrieval devices coated with DNA-binding compounds can considerably improve the outcome of the MT procedures in stroke patients.

Abstract
Biological applications of microfluidics technology is beginning to expand beyond the original focus of diagnostics, analytics and organ-on-chip devices. There is a growing interest in the development of microfluidic devices for therapeutic treatments, such as extra-corporeal haemodialysis and oxygenation. However, the great potential in this area comes with great challenges. Haemocompatibility of materials has long been a concern for blood-contacting medical devices, and microfluidic devices are no exception. The small channel size, high surface area to volume ratio and dynamic conditions integral to microchannels contribute to the blood-material interactions. This review will begin by describing features of microfluidic technology with a focus on blood-contacting applications. Material haemocompatibility will be discussed in the context of interactions with blood components, from the initial absorption of plasma proteins to the activation of cells and factors, and the contribution of these interactions to the coagulation cascade and thrombogenesis. Reference will be made to the testing requirements for medical devices in contact with blood, set out by International Standards in ISO 10993-4. Finally, we will review the techniques for improving microfluidic channel haemocompatibility through material surface modifications-including bioactive and biopassive coatings-and future directions.

Abstract
Vascular regeneration and patency maintenance, without anticoagulant administration, represent key developmental trends to enhance small-diameter vascular grafts (SDVG) performance. In vivo engineered autologous biotubes have emerged as SDVG candidates with pro-regenerative properties. However, mechanical failure coupled with thrombus formation hinder translational prospects of biotubes as SDVGs. Previously fabricated poly(ε-caprolactone) skeleton-reinforced biotubes (PBs) circumvented mechanical issues and achieved vascular regeneration, but orally administered anticoagulants were required. Here, highly efficient and biocompatible functional modifications were introduced to living cells on PB lumens. The 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-methoxy (DMPE)-PEG-conjugated anti-coagulant bivalirudin (DPB) and DMPE-PEG-conjugated endothelial progenitor cell (EPC)-binding TPS-peptide (DPT) modifications possessed functionality conducive to promoting vascular graft patency. Co-modification of DPB and DPT swiftly attained luminal saturation without influencing cell viability. DPB repellent of non-specific proteins, DPB inhibition of thrombus formation, and DPB protection against functional masking of DPT's EPC-capture by blood components, which promoted patency and rapid endothelialization in rat and canine artery implantation models without anticoagulant administration. This strategy offers a safe, facile, and fast technical approach to convey additional functionalization to living cells within tissue-engineered constructs.

Abstract
One of the main reasons impeding wound healing is wound infection caused by bacterial colonization with a continuous stage of inflammation. Traditional wound treatments like gauze are being replaced by tissue adhesives with strong wet tissue adhesion and biocompatibility. Herein, a fast-crosslinking hydrogel is developed to achieve both strong antimicrobial properties and excellent biocompatibility. In this study, a simple and non-toxic composite hydrogel was prepared by the Schiff base reaction between the aldehyde group of 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (TBA) and the amino group of ε-Poly-L-lysine (EPL). Subsequently, a succession of experiments toward this new hydrogel including structure characterization, antimicrobial properties, cell experiment and wound healing were applied. The results of the experiments show that the EPL-TBA hydrogel not only exhibited excellent contact-active antimicrobial activities against Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli (E. coil) and Gram-positive Bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), but also inhibited the biofilm formation. More importantly, the EPL-TBA hydrogel promoted the wound healing with low cytotoxicity in vivo. These findings indicate that the EPL-TBA hydrogel has a promising use as a wound dressing in the bacterial infection prevention and wounds healing acceleration.

Abstract
The increasing need for joint replacement surgeries, musculoskeletal repairs, and orthodontics worldwide prompts emerging technologies to evolve with healthcare's changing landscape. Metallic orthopaedic materials have a shared application history with the aerospace industry, making them only partly efficient in the biomedical domain. However, suitability of metallic materials in bone tissue replacements and regenerative therapies remains unchallenged due to their superior mechanical properties, eventhough they are not perfectly biocompatible. Therefore, exploring ways to improve biocompatibility is the most critical step toward designing the next generation of metallic biomaterials. This review discusses methods of improving biocompatibility of metals used in biomedical devices using surface modification, bulk modification, and incorporation of biologics. Our investigation spans multiple length scales, from bulk metals to the effect of microporosities, surface nanoarchitecture, and biomolecules such as DNA incorporation for enhanced biological response in metallic materials. We examine recent technologies such as 3D printing in alloy design and storing surface charge on nanoarchitecture surfaces, metal-on-metal, and ceramic-on-metal coatings to present a coherent and comprehensive understanding of the subject. Finally, we consider the advantages and challenges of metallic biomaterials and identify future directions.

Abstract
Hybrid materials or hybrids incorporating organic and inorganic constituents are emerging as a very potent and promising class of materials due to the diverse but complementary nature of their properties. This complementarity leads to a perfect synergy of properties of the desired materials and products as well as to an extensive range of their application areas. Recently, we have overviewed and classified hybrid materials describing inorganics-in-organics in Part-I (Saveleva, et al., Front. Chem., 2019, 7, 179). Here, we extend that work in Part-II describing organics-on-inorganics, i.e., inorganic materials modified by organic moieties, their structure and functionalities. Inorganic constituents comprise of colloids/nanoparticles and flat surfaces/matrices comprise of metallic (noble metal, metal oxide, metal-organic framework, magnetic nanoparticles, alloy) and non-metallic (minerals, clays, carbons, and ceramics) materials; while organic additives can include molecules (polymers, fluorescence dyes, surfactants), biomolecules (proteins, carbohydtrates, antibodies and nucleic acids) and even higher-level organisms such as cells, bacteria, and microorganisms. Similarly to what was described in Part-I, we look at similar and dissimilar properties of organic-inorganic materials summarizing those bringing complementarity and composition. A broad range of applications of these hybrid materials is also presented whose development is spurred by engaging different scientific research communities.

Int J Nanomedicine 2022; 17:6579-6591. [PMID: 36575699 PMCID: PMC9790172 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s390513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Ureteral stricture caused by iatrogenic ureteral injury induced ureteral injury is more common and challenging to recover quickly. The effective prevention of ureteral stricture due to iatrogenic ureteral injury-induced ureteral damage is a current challenge for urologists. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of nanoparticle/pirfenidone complex-coated ureteral stents with slow-release pirfenidone for the prevention of ureteral stricture in rabbits. In this study, we developed a nanoparticle/pirfenidone complex-coated ureteral stent to deliver pirfenidone into the injured ureter to inhibit ureteral stricture. Methods Twelve New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups: Sham, US, US+ Unmodified ureteral stent, and US+NP/PFD ureteral stent; we constructed an irreversible electroporation model of ureteral injury in rabbits and placed unmodified ureteral stents and nanoparticle/pirfenidone complex-coated ureteral stents into the ureter. Two weeks later, we euthanized the rabbits and removed their bilateral kidneys and ureters. We evaluated the effect of ureteral stent prophylaxis by gross specimen observation, section staining, and Western Blot. Results We found that the nanoparticle/pirfenidone complexes could adhere uniformly to the surface of the ureteral stent. After placement into the ureter, the nanoparticle/pirfenidone complexes were able to remain on the surface of the ureteral stent. We found nanoparticle/pirfenidone complexes could diffuse in the ureteral epithelial tissue two weeks after the order. The study showed that nanoparticle/pirfenidone complex-coated ureteral stents placed into the ureter showed significantly less stenosis due to fibrosis than in US control rabbits and rabbits treated with unmodified ureteral stents. Conclusion We used a novel platform based on nanoparticle/pirfenidone complex-coated ureteral stents for local and sustained delivery of pirfenidone, which can effectively deliver pirfenidone to the tissue and can slowly control the release of pirfenidone. Therefore, combining ureteral stents with nanoparticle/pirfenidone complexes was an effective measure to prevent ureteral stricture.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:9369.

Abstract
Collagen-sealed polyester (PET) prostheses are commonly used in reconstructive vascular surgery due to their self-sealing properties. To prevent post-surgical infection, different modification methods have been tested but so far none have showed long-term satisfactory efficiency. For this reason, in the present study, a commercial collagen-sealed PET prosthesis was coated by a highly adhesive poly (L-DOPA) layer maintaining the sealing protein without losing the original properties and functionality. This modified (as proven by SEM, FTIR, XPS and contact angle) graft exhibited comparable wettability and elasticity as pristine commercial graft, as well as reduced hemolysis-inducing effect, lowered toxicity against human endothelial cells and reduced toxicity in Danio rerio model. Poly (L-DOPA)-coated grafts were shown to bind six times more aminoglycoside antibiotic (gentamicin) than pristine graft. Poly (L-DOPA)-coated antibiotic-bound prostheses exhibited an improved antibacterial activity (bacterial growth inhibition and anti-adhesive capacity) in comparison with pristine antibiotic-bound graft. Overall, poly (L-DOPA)-coatings deposited on PET vascular grafts can effectively functionalize collagen-sealed prostheses without the loss of protein sealing layer and allow for antibiotics incorporation to provide higher safety in biomedical applications.

Abstract
The tendon, as a compact connective tissue, is difficult to treat after an acute laceration or chronic degeneration. Gene-based therapy is a highly efficient strategy for diverse diseases which has been increasingly applied in tendons in recent years. As technology improves by leaps and bounds, a wide variety of non-viral vectors have been manufactured that attempt to have high biosecurity and transfection efficiency, considered to be a promising treatment modality. In this review, we examine the unwanted biological barriers, the categories of applicable genes, and the introduction and comparison of non-viral vectors. We focus on lipid-based nanoparticles and polymer-based nanoparticles, differentiating between them based on their combination with diverse chemical modifications and scaffolds.

Abstract
Native-like endothelium regeneration is a prerequisite for material-guided small-diameter vascular regeneration. In this study, a novel strategy is proposed to achieve phase-adjusted endothelial healing by step-wise modification of parallel-microgroove-patterned (i.e., micropatterned) nanofibers with polydopamine-copper ion (PDA-Cu2+) complexes, polylysine (PLys) molecules, and Cys-Ala-Gly (CAG) peptides (CAG@PLys@PDA-Cu2+). Using electrospun poly(l-lactide-co-caprolactone) random nanofibers as the demonstrating biomaterial, step-wise modification of CAG@PLys@PDA-Cu2+ significantly enhanced substrate wettability and protein adsorption, exhibited an excellent antithrombotic surface and outstanding phase-adjusted capacity of endothelium regeneration involving cell adhesion, endothelial monolayer formation, and the regenerated endothelium maturation. Upon in vivo implantation for segmental replacement of rabbit carotid arteries, CAG@PLys@PDA-Cu2+ modified grafts (2 mm inner diameter) with micropatterns on inner surface effectively accelerated native-like endothelium regeneration within 1 week, with less platelet aggregates and inflammatory response compared to those on non-modified grafts. Prolonged observations at 6- and 12-weeks post-implantation demonstrated a positive vascular remodeling with almost fully covered endothelium and mature smooth muscle layer in the modified vascular grafts, accompanied with well-organized extracellular matrix. By contrast, non-modified vascular grafts induced a disorganized tissue formation with a high risk of thrombogenesis. In summary, step-wise modification of CAG@PLys@PDA-Cu2+ on micropatterned nanofibers can significantly promote endothelial healing without inflicting thrombosis, thus confirming a novel strategy for developing functional vascular grafts or other blood-contacting materials/devices.

Abstract
Magnesium alloy has become a research hotspot of the degradable vascular stent materials due to its biodegradability and excellent mechanical properties. However, its rapid degradation rate after implantation and the limited biocompatibility restrict its application in clinic. Constructing a multifunctional bioactive polymer coating on the magnesium alloys represents one of the popular and effective approaches to simultaneously improve the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. In the present study, the copolymer of 6-arm polyethylene glycol and heparin (PEG-Hep) was successfully synthesized and then immobilized on the surface of chitosan (Chi)-modified magnesium alloy surface through electrostatic interaction to improve the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. The results of attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy showed that a dense and compact coating was created on the magnesium alloy surface. The coating displayed excellent hydrophilicity. At the same time, the as-prepared coating can significantly not only improve the corrosion potential, reduce the corrosion current and the pH changes of the immersion solution, but also keep a relatively intact surface morphology after immersing in simulated body fluid solution for 14 days, demonstrating that the coating can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of the magnesium alloy. Moreover, the magnesium alloy with PEG-Hep coating exhibited excellent hemocompatibility according to the results of the hemolysis rate and platelet adhesion and activation. In addition, the modified magnesium alloy had a good ability to promote the endothelial cell adhesion and proliferation. Therefore, the PEG-Hep multifunctional coating can be applied in the surface modification of the biodegradable magnesium alloy stent to simultaneously improve the corrosion resistance and biocompatibility.

Abstract
The coverage of stents with healthy endothelium is crucial to the success of cardiovascular stent implantation. Immobilizing bioactive molecules on stents is an effective strategy to generate such stents. Glycogen synthase kinase-3β inhibitor (GSKi) is a bioactive molecule that can effectively accelerate vascular endothelialization. In this work, GSKi was covalently conjugated on 316L stainless steel through polydopamine to develop a stable bioactive surface. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and water contact angle results revealed the successful introduction of GSKi onto 316L stainless steel. The GSKi coating did not obviously affect the hemocompatibility of plates. The adhesion and proliferation of human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) on stainless steel was significantly promoted by the addition of GSKi. In summary, this work provides a universal and stable strategy of immobilizing GSKi on the stent surface. This method has the potential for widespread application in the modification of vascular stents.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys, as potential biodegradable materials, have drawn wide attention in the cardiovascular stent field because of their appropriate mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Nevertheless, the occurrence of thrombosis, inflammation, and restenosis of implanted Mg alloy stents caused by their poor corrosion resistance and insufficient endothelialization restrains their anticipated clinical applications. Numerous surface treatment tactics have mainly striven to modify the Mg alloy for inhibiting its degradation rate and enduing it with biological functionality. This review focuses on highlighting and summarizing the latest research progress in functionalized coatings on Mg alloys for cardiovascular stents over the last decade, regarding preparation strategies for metal oxide, metal hydroxide, inorganic nonmetallic, polymer, and their composite coatings; and the performance of these strategies in regulating degradation behavior and biofunction. Potential research direction is also concisely discussed to help guide biological functionalized strategies and inspire further innovations. It is hoped that this review can give assistance to the surface modification of cardiovascular Mg-based stents and promote future advancements in this emerging research field.

Abstract
Inflammation and thrombosis are two major complications of blood-contacting catheters that are used as extracorporeal circuits for hemodialysis and life-support systems. In clinical applications, complications can lead to increased mortality and morbidity rates. In this work, a biomimetic erythrocyte membrane zwitterion coating based on poly(2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine-co-dopamine methacrylate) (pMPCDA) copolymers is uniformly and robustly modified onto a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) catheter via mussel-inspired surface chemistry. The zwitterionic pMPCDA coating exhibits excellent antifouling activity and resists bacterial adhesion, fibrinogen adsorption, and platelet adhesion/activation. The material also demonstrates great hemocompatibility, cytocompatibility, and anticoagulation properties in vitro. Additionally, this biocompatible pMPCDA coating reduces in vivo foreign-body reactions by mitigating inflammatory response and collagen capsule formation, due to its outstanding ability to resist nonspecific protein adsorption. More importantly, when compared with a bare PVC catheter, the pMPCDA coating exhibits outstanding antithrombotic properties when tested in an ex vivo rabbit perfusion model. Thus, it is envisioned that this biomimetic erythrocyte membrane surface strategy will provide a promising way to mitigate inflammation and thrombosis caused by the use of blood-contacting catheters.

Abstract
Over the decades, researchers have strived to synthesize and modify nature-inspired biomaterials, with the primary aim to address the challenges of designing functional biomaterials for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Among these challenges, biocompatibility and cellular interactions have been extensively investigated. Some of the most desirable characteristics for biomaterials in these applications are the loading of bioactive molecules, strong adhesion to moist areas, improvement of cellular adhesion, and self-healing properties. Mussel-inspired biomaterials have received growing interest mainly due to the changes in mechanical and biological functions of the scaffold due to catechol modification. Here, we summarize the chemical and biological principles and the latest advancements in production, as well as the use of mussel-inspired biomaterials. Our main focus is the polydopamine coating, the conjugation of catechol with other polymers, and the biomedical applications that polydopamine moieties are used for, such as matrices for drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and hemostatic control. We also present a critical conclusion and an inspired view on the prospects for the development and application of mussel-inspired materials.

Abstract
The effective separation of dyes and inorganic salts is highly desirable for recycling inorganic salts and water resource in printing and dyeing wastewater treatment. In this work, tannic acid (TA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) were grafted on the PES/Fe ultrafiltration membrane via the coordination assembly and Michael addition strategy to fabricated a loose nanofiltration membrane (LNM). The effect of PEI concentration on membrane morphologies and properties was systematically investigated. The membrane surface becomes more hydrophilic and transforms into positive charge after the PEI grafting. The optimized PES/Fe-TA-PEI membrane possesses high pure water flux (124.6 L·m−2·h−1) and excellent dye rejections (98.5%, 99.8%, 98.4%, and 86.4% for Congo red, Eriochrome black T, Alcian blue 8GX, and Bromophenol blue, respectively) under 2 bar operation pressure. Meanwhile, the LNM showed a high Alcian blue 8GX rejection (>98.4%) and low NaCl rejection (<5.3%) for the dye/salt mixed solutions separation. Moreover, the PES/Fe-TA-PEI LNM exhibited good antifouling performance and long-term performance stability. These results reveal that such LNM shows great potential for effective fractionation of dyes and salts and recycling of textile wastewater.

Abstract
Effective surface modification to endow pyrolytic carbon (PYC) with long-term anti-thrombotic performance is highly demanded. In this work, a gradient hydrophobic surface on PYC was prepared by creating parallel ridges via the combination of laser etching technology and surface fluorosilanization. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation confirms that the gradient hydrophobic surface is composed of a bare PYC region and four regions of parallel ridges with varying distances. The gradient hydrophobic surface is stable in air, phosphate buffer solution (PBS), and flowing PBS. Additionally, the gradient hydrophobic surface on PYC shows spontaneous droplet motion and much lower flow resistance than bare PYC. Compared to bare PYC, the gradient hydrophobic surface on PYC exhibits better blood compatibility and anti-adhesion performance. The results presented in this paper confirm that creating a gradient hydrophobic surface is an effective way of achieving long-lasting anti-thrombosis property.

Abstract
Titanium and its alloys are widely used in blood-contacting implantable and interventional medical devices; however, their biocompatibility is still facing great challenges. In the present study, in order to improve the biocompatibility and antibacterial activities of titanium, TiO2 nanotubes were firstly in situ prepared on the titanium surface by anodization, followed by the introduction of polyacrylic acid (PAA) and gentamicin (GS) on the nanotube surface by layer-by-layer assembly, and finally, zinc ions were loaded on the surface to further improve the bioactivities. The nanotubes displayed excellent hydrophilicity and special nanotube-like structure, which can selectively promote the albumin adsorption, enhance the blood compatibility, and promote the growth of endothelial cells to some degree. After the introduction of PAA and GS, although the superhydrophilicity cannot be achieved, the results of platelet adhesion, cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) activity, hemolysis rate, and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) showed that the blood compatibility was improved, and the blood compatibility was further enhanced after zinc ion loading. On the other hand, the modified surface showed good cytocompatibility to endothelial cells. The introduction of PAA and zinc ions not only promoted the adhesion and proliferation of endothelial cells but also upregulated expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and nitric oxide (NO). The slow and continuous release of GS and Zn2+ over 14 days can significantly improve the antibacterial properties. Therefore, the present study provides an effective method for the surface modification of titanium-based blood-contacting materials to simultaneously endow with good blood compatibility, endothelial growth behaviors, and antibacterial properties.

Abstract
Tendon injuries are common diseases. The healing capacity of tendon is limited due to its special composition of extra-cellular matrix and hypocellularity and hypovascularity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of nanoparticle-coated sutures carrying growth factors for accelerating tendon repair. A variety of experimental methods had been used to investigate the characteristics and therapeutic effects of the modified sutures. Nanoparticles could adhere uniformly to the surface of the suture through polydopamine. Even sutured in the tendon, most of nanoparticles were still remained on the surface of suture, and the loaded proteins could spread into the tendon tissues. In vivo study, the ultimate strength of repaired tendons treated with bFGF and VEGFA-releasing sutures was significantly greater than the tendons repaired with control sutures at multiple time-points, whether in the chicken model of flexor tendon injury or the rat model of Achilles tendon injury. At week 6, the adhesion score in the bFGF and VEGFA-releasing suture group was significantly lower than those of the control suture group. Tendon gliding excursion was significantly longer in the bFGF and VEGFA-releasing suture group than that in the control bare sutures. Work of digital flexion was significantly decreased in the bFGF and VEGFA-releasing suture group. In a word, we developed a platform for local and continuous delivery of growth factors based on the nanoparticle-coated sutures, which could effectively deliver growth factors to tissues and control the release of growth factors. This growth factors delivery system is an attractive therapeutic tool to repair injured tendons. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Tendon rupture is a common clinical injury, due to the special character of the tendon with mainly extra cellular matrix and hypocellularity and hypovascularity, the healing capacity of the injured tendon is limited. In this study, nanoparticle-coated surgical sutures carrying growth factors were prepared to accelerate tendon repair. After treatment, bFGF and VEGFA loaded nanoparticle-coated sutures can significantly enhance tendon healing, and significantly improve tendon gliding function and effectively inhibit the formation of adhesion. Moreover, these nanoparticle-coated sutures have good biocompatibility and no obvious tissue reaction, which provides more guarantee for further clinical application. This is an attractive and promising approach that uses surgical suture as a growth factor delivery tool to repair tendon injury, which can simplify the treatment. And this kind of bioactive sutures may be applied to other tissue repair, such as muscle, nerve, intestinal canal, blood vessel, skin, and so on.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Beyond aneurysmal occlusion, metallic flow diverters (FDs) can induce an adverse endovascular reaction due to the foreignness of metal devices, hampering FD endothelialization across the aneurysm neck, and arterial healing of intracranial aneurysms. Here, we evaluated the potential benefits of an FD coating mimicking CD31, a coreceptor critically involved in endothelial function and endovascular homeostasis, on the endothelialization of FDs implanted in vivo. METHODS Nitinol FD (Silk Vista Baby) and flat disks were dip-coated with a CD31-mimetic peptide via an intermediate layer of polydopamine. Disks were used to assess the reaction of endothelial cells and blood elements in vitro. An aneurysm rabbit model was used to compare in vivo effects on the arterial wall of CD31-mimetic-coated (CD31-mimetic, n=6), polydopamine-coated (polydopamine, n=6), and uncoated FDs (bare, n=5) at 4 weeks post-FD implantation. In addition, long-term safety was assessed at 12 weeks. RESULTS In vitro, CD31-mimetic coated disks displayed reduced adhesion of blood elements while favoring endothelial cell attachment and confluence, compared to bare and polydopamine disks. Strikingly, in vivo, the neoarterial wall formed over the CD31-mimetic-FD struts at the aneurysm neck was characteristic of an arterial tunica media, with continuous differentiated endothelium covering a significantly thicker layer of collagen and smooth muscle cells as compared to the controls. The rates of angiographic complete occlusion and covered branch arterial patency were similar in all 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS CD31-mimetic coating favors the colonization of metallic endovascular devices with endothelial cells displaying a physiological phenotype while preventing the adhesion of platelets and leukocytes. These biological properties lead to a rapid and improved endothelialization of the neoarterial wall at the aneurysm neck. CD31-mimetic coating could therefore represent a valuable strategy for FD biocompatibility improvement and aneurysm healing.

Abstract
Drug-eluting stents have demonstrated efficiency in in-stent restenosis (ISR) but induced a risk of late acute thrombosis by delaying strut re-endothelialization. Polydopamine (PDA), a biocompatible polymer inspired from adhesive proteins of mussels, has been reported to promote endothelial cell (EC) proliferation while limiting SMC proliferation in vitro, thus suggesting the pro-healing potential. This study aimed at evaluating in vivo the impact of the pro-healing PDA-coated stent on ISR and on the quality of the strut re-endothelialization in a rat model. PDA-coated stents demonstrated a significant reduction in ISR in vivo compared to bare metal stents (ratio neointima/media = 0.48 (±0.26) versus 0.83 (±0.42), p < 0.001). Western blot analyses identified a trend towards an increased activation of p38 MAPK phosphorylation and its anti-proliferative effects on vascular SMC that could explain the results observed in morphological analyses. This bioinspired and biocompatible polydopamine layer could intrinsically limit ISR. In addition, according to its latent reactivity, PDA offers the possibility to immobilize some relevant drugs on the PDA-functionalized stent to provide potential synergistic effects.

Abstract
Thanks to its simplicity, versatility, and secondary reactivity, dopamine self-polymerized coatings (pDA) have been widely used in surface modification of biomaterials, but the limitation in secondary molecular grafting and the high roughness restrain their application in some special scenarios. Therefore, some other catecholamine coatings analog to pDA have attracted more and more attention, including the smoother poly-norepinephrine coating (pNE), and the poly-levodopa coating (pLD) containing additional carboxyl groups. However, the lack of a systematic comparison of the properties, especially the biological properties of the above three catecholamine coatings, makes it difficult to give a guiding opinion on the application scenarios of different coatings. Herein, we systematically studied the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the three catecholamine coatings, and explored the feasibility of their application for the modification of biomaterials, especially cardiovascular materials. Among them, the pDA coating was the roughest, with the largest amount of amino and phenolic hydroxyl groups for molecule grafting, and induced the strongest platelet adhesion and activation. The pLD coating was the thinnest and most hydrophilic but triggered the strongest inflammatory response. The pNE coating was the smoothest, with the best hemocompatibility and histocompatibility, and with the strongest cell selectivity of promoting the proliferation of endothelial cells while inhibiting the proliferation of smooth muscle cells. To sum up, the pNE coating may be a better choice for the surface modification of cardiovascular materials, especially those for vascular stents and grafts, but it is still not widely recognized.

Abstract
Polyphenols are a class of ubiquitous compounds distributed in nature, with fascinating inherent biocompatible, bioadhesive, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties. The unique polyphenolic structures based on catechol or pyrogallol moieties allow for strong non-covalent interactions (e.g., multiple hydrogen bonding, electrostatic, and cation-π interactions) as well as covalent interactions (e.g., Michael addition/Schiff-base reaction, radical coupling reaction, and dynamic coordination interactions with boronate or metal ions). This review article provides an overview of the polyphenol-based scaffolds including the hydrogels, films, and nanofibers that have emerged from chemical and functional signatures during the past years. A full description of the structure-function relationships in terms of their utilization in wound healing, bone regeneration, and electroactive tissue engineering is also carefully discussed, which may pave the path towards the rational design and facile preparation of next-generation polyphenol scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogel-based epidermal sensors are attracting significant interest due to their great potential in soft robotics, electronic skins, bioelectronics and personalized healthcare monitoring. However, the conventional conductive hydrogel-based epidermal sensors cannot be degraded, resulting in the significant problem of waste, which will gradually increase the burden on the environment. Herein, degradable adhesive epidermal sensors were assembled using conductive nanocomposite hydrogels, which were prepared via the conformal coating of cellulose nanofiber (CNF) networks and supramolecular interaction among CNF, polydopamine (PDA), Fe3+, and polyacrylamide (PAM). They exhibited superior mechanical properties, reliable degradability (30 days in water), and excellent self-adhesiveness. The obtained hydrogels could be assembled as self-adhesive, degradable epidermal sensors for real-time human motion monitoring. Air could be sucked into the hydrogels during their swelling process, thereby oxidizing the tris-catechol-Fe3+ complexes and releasing Fe3+. Finally, the polymer networks were degraded via a Fenton-like reaction dominated by S2O82- and Fe(ii/iii) with the help of the catechol groups of PDA. This work paves the way for the potential fabrication of degradable, and self-adhesive epidermal sensors for applications in human-machine interactions, implantable bioelectronics, and personalized healthcare monitoring.

Abstract
Current vascular drug-eluting stents based on immuno-proliferative drugs would reduce the rate of in-stent restenosis (ISR) but may be associated with a higher risk of acute stent thrombosis due to non-selective activity. In this paper, we aimed to develop a polydopamine (PDA) coated chromium‑cobalt (CoCr) stent functionalised with EP224283 (Endotis Pharma SA), which combines both a GPIIbIIIa antagonist (tirofiban moiety) and a factor Xa inhibitor (idraparinux moiety) to reduce acute stent thrombosis. PDA-coated chromium‑cobalt (CoCr) samples were first immersed in a polyethylenimine (PEI, pH 8.5) solution to increase amine function density (36.0 ± 0.1 nmol/cm2) on the CoCr surface. In a second step, avidin was grafted onto CoCr-PDA-PEI through the biotin linkage (strategy 1) or directly by coupling reactions (strategy 2). The HABA titration proved the fixation of biotin onto CoCr-PDA-PEI surface with a density of 0.74 nmol/cm2. The fixation of avidin was demonstrated by water contact angle (WCA) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). SEM micrograph shows the flexibility of the thin layer coated onto the stent after balloon inflation. Independently of the strategy, a qualitative SEM analysis showed a reduction in platelet activation when the molecule EP224283 was immobilised on avidin. In parallel, the measurement of anticoagulant activity (anti-Xa) revealed a higher anti-factor Xa activity (2.24 IU/mL vs. 0.09 IU/mL in control) when EP224283 was immobilised on avidin. Interestingly, after seven days of degradation, the anticoagulant activity was persistent in both strategies and looked more important with the strategy 2 than in strategy 1. Throughout this work, we developed an innovative vascular stent through the immobilisation of EP224283 onto CoCr-PDA-PEI-(avidin) system, which provides a promising solution to reduce ISR and thrombosis after stent implantation.

Abstract
In this study, a small-diameter, double-layered eggshell membrane/thermoplastic polyurethane (ESM/TPU) vascular graft with a wavy structure was developed. The avian eggshell membrane, a fibrous structure similar to the extracellular matrix (ECM), has the potential to yield rapid endothelialization in vitro. The dopamine and heparin modification of the ESM surface not only promoted human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation via cytocompatibility assessment, but also improved its anticoagulation properties as verified in platelet adhesion tests. The biomimetic mechanical properties of the vascular graft were provided by the elastic TPU fibers via electrospinning using a wavy cross-section rotating collector. The advantage of combining these two materials is to make use of the bioactivity of ESM as the internal membrane and the tunable mechanical properties of TPU as the external layer. The circumferentially wavy structure of the vascular graft produced a toe region in the non-linear section of the stress-strain curve similar to that of natural blood vessels. The ESM/TPU graft's circumferential ultimate strength was 2.57 MPa, its strain was 339% mm/mm, and its toe region was found to be around 20% mm/mm. Cyclical tension tests showed that the vascular graft could maintain good mechanical properties and showed no structural damage under repeated extension tests.

Abstract
A cardiovascular stent is a small mesh tube that expands a narrowed or blocked coronary artery. Unfortunately, current stents, regardless metallic or polymeric, still largely fall short to the ideal clinical needs due to late restenosis, thrombosis and other clinical complications. Nonetheless, metallic stents are preferred clinically thanks to their superior mechanical property and radiopacity to their polymeric counterparts. The emergence of bioresorbable metals opens a window for better stent materials as they may have the potential to reduce or eliminate late restenosis and thrombosis. In fact, some bioresorbable magnesium (Mg)-based stents have obtained regulatory approval or under trials with mixed clinical outcomes. Some major issues with Mg include the too rapid degradation rate and late restenosis. To mitigate these problems, bioresorbable zinc (Zn)-based stent materials are being developed lately with the more suitable degradation rate and better biocompatibility. The past decades have witnessed the unprecedented evolution of metallic stent materials from first generation represented by stainless steel (SS), to second generation represented by Mg, and to third generation represented by Zn. To further elucidate their pros and cons as metallic stent materials, we systematically evaluated their performances in vitro and in vivo through direct side-by-side comparisons. Our results demonstrated that tailored Zn-based material with proper configurations could be a promising candidate for a better stent material in the future.

Abstract
Magnesium alloys are promising cardiovascular stent materials due to the favourable physical properties and complete biodegradability in vivo. However, the rapid degradation, poor cytocompatibility and tendency of thrombogenesis hinder practical clinical applications. In order to solve these problems, a facile and highly efficient strategy of alkali treatment combined with subsequent layer-by-layer assembly was used to fabricate a multifunctional coating. A bottom layer hydroxyl (–OH) with negative charge after alkali treatment first formed a solid bond with magnesium matrix to provide a rough outer surface for the further immobilization of functional biomolecules. Afterwards, polydopamine and hyaluronic acid were successively immobilized on alkali-treated magnesium surface via strong electrostatic adsorption and covalent bonding between carboxyl group of hyaluronic acid and amine or hydroxyl of polydopamine to form magnesium/OH/polydopamine/hyaluronic acid. Hydroxyl significantly improves the corrosion resistance while polydopamine and hyaluronic acid layers act as a further barrier to provide better anticorrosion. A balance between biocompatibility and antithrombogenicity has been achieved by adjusting the content of hyaluronic acid on polydopamine surface. The multifunctional magnesium/OH/polydopamine/hyaluronic acid coating with lower hyaluronic acid concentrations expose more active sites of polydopamine molecules to promote endothelial cell proliferation while retaining the intrinsic antithrombogenic function of hyaluronic acid to offer a potential application for vascular stents.

Abstract
In this work, the comb-like poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) copolymer, poly(2-aminoethyl methacrylate-random-poly(2-methyl-2-oxazoline) (PMOXA-r-AEMA, PMA) is synthesized, and the CuSO4/H2O2-triggered dopamine/PMA co-deposition process is investigated. Ellipsometry, water contact angle (WCA), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) are used to characterize the thickness, hydrophilicity, and surface composition of PMA-based coatings. PMA is facilely anchored to substrates within 60 min with the assistance of dopamine/polydopamine triggered by CuSO4/H2O2, and the coating thickness can achieve about 13 nm. Anti-protein adsorption and anti-blood platelet adhesion measurements are also studied to verify their antifouling properties. The adsorption capacity of FITC-BSA can be reduced to 5% of the original surface, and PMA-based coatings present excellent protein-resistant properties (∼95% reduction relative to gold surface) according to surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurement, and it can resist adhesion of almost all blood platelets. Moreover, it is applied to a capillary inner wall for surface modification. An alkaline protein mixture and egg white proteins are successfully separated, and present excellent stability. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of migration time is lower than 0.71%. The practicability of this promising PMA-based coatings with this preparation strategy can be used for further proteomics analysis.

Abstract
Vascular stent interventional therapy, as a regular and effective therapy, has been widely used to treat coronary artery diseases. However, adverse events occur frequently after stent intervention, especially restenosis and late stent thrombosis. The targeted implanting site will suffer from severe atherosclerosis, which is considered as a chronic inflammatory disease. Meanwhile, with the over-expanding use of endovascular mechanical intervention, vascular injury has become an increasingly common issue. Lesions and newly induced vascular injury result in inflammatory and oxidative stress; meanwhile, activated macrophages and granulocytes generate high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), contributing to endothelial dysfunction and neointima hyperplasia. Therefore, attenuating oxidative stress and reducing ROS generation in the inflammatory response represent reasonable strategies to inhibit intimal hyperplasia and restenosis. Herein, we have developed a multifunctional surface for the MgZnYNd alloy with tannic acid (TA) coating, and the pH dependence of the coating deposition is also demonstrated. The phenolic hydroxyl groups on the coatings endow the modified surface with excellent antioxidant functions. We found that the coating can be recycled, and the scavenging activity hardly weakened within five cycles. Also, the TA coating has a promising strong antioxidant activity as it shows a radical scavenging activity over 80% in long term. Moreover, the TA coating possesses platelet-repellent capability. No significant inflammatory response was observed for the TA modified sample in the rat subcutaneous implantation test. Combining these performances, we envision that the vascular stent modified with TA coating can have great potential in various applications by virtue of its simplicity and effectiveness.

Co-immobilization of ACH 11 antithrombotic peptide and CAG cell-adhesive peptide onto vascular grafts for improved hemocompatibility and endothelialization. Acta Biomater 2019; 97:344-359.

Abstract
Surface modification by conjugating biomolecules has been widely proved to enhance biocompatibility of small-caliber artificial vascular grafts. In this study, we aimed at developing a multifunctional vascular graft that provides not only good hemocompatibility but also in situ rapid endothelialization. Herein, a vascular graft (inner diameter ∼2 mm) was fabricated by electrospinning with poly(lactic acid-co-caprolactone) and gelatin, and then biofunctionalized with antithrombotic peptide with sequence LTFPRIVFVLG (ACH11) and cell adhesion peptide with sequence CAG through adhesive poly(dopamine) coating. We developed this graft with the synergistic properties of low thrombogenicity and rapid endothelialization. The successful grafting of both CAG and ACH11 peptides was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The surface micromorphology of the modified surfaces was observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Our results demonstrated that the multifunctional surface suppressed the denaturation of absorbed fibrinogen, hindered coagulation factor Xa activation, and inhibited platelet adhesion and aggregation. Importantly, this modified surface could selectively enhance endothelial cells adhesion, proliferation and release of nitric oxide. Upon in vivo implantation of 6 weeks, the multifunctional vascular graft showed improved patency and superior vascular endothelialization. Overall, the results effectively demonstrated that the co-immobilization of ACH11 and CAG provided a promising method for the improvement of hemocompatibility and endothelialization of vascular grafts. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Electrospun small-caliber vascular grafts are increasingly used to treat cardiovascular diseases. Despite their success related to their good biodegradation and mechanical strength, they have some drawbacks, such as low hemocompatibility and endothelialization. The single-function ligands are insufficient to modify surface with both good hemocompatibility and rapid endothelialization simultaneously. Therefore, we functionalized electrospun vascular graft by novel antithrombotic peptide and cell-adhesive peptide to construct superior anticoagulation and ECs-selective adhesion surface in present study. The multifunctional vascular grafts benefit for high long-term patency and rapid endothelialization.

Abstract
It is widely accepted that surface biofunctional modification may be an effective approach to improve biocompatibility and confer new bioactive properties on biomaterials. In this work, mussel adhesive protein (MAP) was applied as a coating on 316 L stainless steel substrates (316 L SS) and stents, and then either immobilized VEGF or CD34 antibody were added to create biofunctional films. The properties of the MAP coating were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM) and a water contact angle test. Universal tensile testing showed that the MAP coating has adequate adhesion strength on a 316 L stainless steel material surface. Subsequent cytotoxicity and hemolysis rate tests showed that the MAP coatings have good biocompatibility. Moreover, using N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysulfosussinimide (EDC/NHS) chemistry, VEGF and CD34 antibody were immobilized on the MAP coatings. The amount and immobilized yield of VEGF on the MAP coatings were analyzed by enzyme-linked immuno-assays (ELISA). Finally, an endothelial cells culture showed that the VEGF biofunctional film can promote the viability and proliferation of endothelial cells. An in vitro CD34+ cells capturing test also verified the bioactive properties of the CD34 antibody coated stents. These results showed that the MAP coatings allowed effective biomolecule immobilization, providing a promising platform for vascular device modification.

Abstract
Gold nanocages (AuNCs) and gold nanoclusters (AuClusters) are two classes of advantageous nanostructures with special optical properties, and many other attractive properties. Integrating them into one nanosystem may achieve greater and smarter performance. Herein, a hybrid gold nanostructure for fluorescent and optoacoustic tomography imaging, controlled release of drugs, and photothermal therapy (PTT) is demonstrated. For this nanodrug (EA-AB), an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor erlotinib (EB) is loaded into AuNCs, which are then capped and functionalized by biocompatible AuCluster@BSA (BSA = bovine serum albumin) conjugates via electrostatic interaction. Upon cell internalization, the lysosomal proteases and low pH cause the release of EB from EA-AB, and also induce fluorescence restoration of the AuCluster for imaging. Irradiation with near-infrared light further promotes the drug release and affords a PTT effect as well. The AuNC-based nanodrug is optoacoustically active, and its biodistribution and metabolic process have been successfully monitored by whole-body and 3D multispectral optoacoustic tomography imaging. Owing to the combined actions of PTT and EGFR pathway blockage, EA-AB exhibits marked tumor inhibition efficacy in vivo.

In vitro behavior of tendon stem/progenitor cells on bioactive electrospun nanofiber membranes for tendon-bone tissue engineering applications. Int J Nanomedicine 2019; 14:5831-5848. [PMID: 31534327 PMCID: PMC6680086 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s210509] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Accepted: 06/17/2019] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose In order to accelerate the tendon-bone healing processes and achieve the efficient osteointegration between the tendon graft and bone tunnel, we aim to design bioactive electrospun nanofiber membranes combined with tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) to promote osteogenic regeneration of the tendon and bone interface. Methods In this study, nanofiber membranes of polycaprolactone (PCL), PCL/collagen I (COL-1) hybrid nanofiber membranes, poly(dopamine) (PDA)-coated PCL nanofiber membranes and PDA-coated PCL/COL-1 hybrid nanofiber membranes were successfully fabricated by electrospinning. The biochemical characteristics and nanofibrous morphology of the membranes, as well as the characterization of rat TSPCs, were defined in vitro. After co-culture with different types of electrospun nanofiber membranes in vitro, cell proliferation, viability, adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of TSPCs were evaluated at different time points. Results Among all the membranes, the performance of the PCL/COL-1 (volume ratio: 2:1 v/v) group was superior in terms of its ability to support the adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of TSPCs. No benefit was found in this study to include PDA coating on cell adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of TSPCs. Conclusion The PCL/COL-1 hybrid electrospun nanofiber membranes are biocompatible, biomimetic, easily fabricated, and are capable of supporting cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of TSPCs. These bioactive electrospun nanofiber membranes may act as a suitable functional biomimetic scaffold in tendon-bone tissue engineering applications to enhance tendon-bone healing abilities.

Abstract
How to accelerate tendon healing remains a clinical challenge. In this study, a suture carrying nanoparticle/pEGFP-basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and pEGFP-vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) complexes was developed to transfer the growth factor genes into injured tendon tissues to promote healing. Polydopamine-modified sutures can uniformly and tightly absorb nanoparticle/plasmid complexes. After tendon tissues were sutured, the nanoparticle/plasmid complexes still existed on the suture surface. Further, we found that the nanoparticle/plasmid complexes delivered into tendon tissues could diffuse from sutures to tendon tissues and effectively transfect genes into tendon cells, significantly increasing the expression of growth factors in tendon tissues. Finally, biomechanical tests showed that nanoparticle/pEGFP-bFGF and pEGFP-VEGFA complex-coated sutures could significantly increase the ultimate strengths of repaired tendons, especially at 4 weeks after operation. Two kinds of nanoparticle/plasmid complex-coated sutures significantly increased flexor tendon healing strength by 3.7 times for Ethilon and 5.8 times for PDS II, respectively, compared with the corresponding unmodified sutures. In the flexor tendon injury model, at 6 weeks after surgery, compared with the control suture, the nanoparticle/plasmid complex-coated sutures can significantly increase the gliding excursions of the tendon and inhibit the formation of adhesion. These results indicate that this nanoparticle/plasmid complex-coated suture is a promising tool for the treatment of injured tendons.

Abstract
Hybrid nanomaterials have shown great potential in regenerative medicine due to the unique opportunities to customize materials properties for effectively controlling cellular growth. The peptide nanofiber-mediated auto-oxidative polymerization of dopamine, resulting in stable aqueous dispersions of polydopamine-coated peptide hybrid nanofibers, is demonstrated. The catechol residues of the polydopamine coating on the hybrid nanofibers are accessible and provide a platform for introducing functionalities in a pH-responsive polymer analogous reaction, which is demonstrated using a boronic acid modified fluorophore. The resulting hybrid nanofibers exhibit attractive properties in their cellular interactions: they enhance neuronal cell adhesion, nerve fiber growth, and growth cone area, thus providing great potential in regenerative medicine. Furthermore, the facile modification by pH-responsive supramolecular polymer analog reactions allows tailoring the functional properties of the hybrid nanofibers in a reversible fashion.

Abstract
Bioconjugation of enzymes on coatings based on polydopamine (PDA) layers is an appealing approach to control biological responses on biomedical implant surfaces. As alternative to PDA wet deposition, a fast, solvent-free, and dynamic deposition approach based on atmospheric-pressure plasma dielectric barrier discharge process is considered to deposit on metallic surfaces acrylic-based interlayers containing highly chemically reactive catechol/quinone groups. A biomimetic approach based on covalent immobilization of Dispersin B, an enzyme with antibiofilm properties, shows the bioconjugation potential of the novel plasma polymer layers. The excellent antibiofilm activity against Staphylococcus epidermidis is comparable to the PDA-based layers prepared by wet chemical methods with slow deposition rates. A study of preosteoblastic MG-63 human cell line viability and adhesion properties on plasma polymer layers demonstrates early interaction required for biomedical applications.
