[PMID: 38906478 DOI: 10.1016/j.addr.2024.115362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 06/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/23/2024]
Abstract
The cytoskeleton, an intricate network of protein fibers within cells, plays a pivotal role in maintaining cell shape, enabling movement, and facilitating intracellular transport. Its involvement in various pathological states, ranging from cancer proliferation and metastasis to the progression of neurodegenerative disorders, underscores its potential as a target for therapeutic intervention. The exploration of nanotechnology in this realm, particularly the use of nanomaterials for cytoskeletal modulation, represents a cutting-edge approach with the promise of novel treatments. Inorganic nanomaterials, including those derived from gold, metal oxides, carbon, and black phosphorus, alongside organic variants such as peptides and proteins, are at the forefront of this research. These materials offer diverse mechanisms of action, either by directly interacting with cytoskeletal components or by influencing cellular signaling pathways that, in turn, modulate the cytoskeleton. Recent advancements have introduced magnetic field-responsive and light-responsive nanomaterials, which allow for targeted and controlled manipulation of the cytoskeleton. Such precision is crucial in minimizing off-target effects and enhancing therapeutic efficacy. This review explores the importance of research into cytoskeleton-targeting nanomaterials for developing therapeutic interventions for a range of diseases. It also addresses the progress made in this field, the challenges encountered, and future directions for using nanomaterials to modulate the cytoskeleton. The continued exploration of nanomaterials for cytoskeleton modulation holds great promise for advancing therapeutic strategies against a broad spectrum of diseases, marking a significant step forward in the intersection of nanotechnology and medicine.

Abstract
This review highlights recent advancements in the synthesis, processing, properties, and applications of 2D-material integrated hydrogels, with a focus on their performance in bone-related applications. Various synthesis methods and types of 2D nanomaterials, including graphene, graphene oxide, transition metal dichalcogenides, black phosphorus, and MXene are discussed, along with strategies for their incorporation into hydrogel matrices. These composite hydrogels exhibit tunable mechanical properties, high surface area, strong near-infrared (NIR) photon absorption and controlled release capabilities, making them suitable for a range of regeneration and therapeutic applications. In cancer therapy, 2D-material-based hydrogels show promise for photothermal and photodynamic therapies, and drug delivery (chemotherapy). The photothermal properties of these materials enable selective tumor ablation upon NIR irradiation, while their high drug-loading capacity facilitates targeted and controlled release of chemotherapeutic agents. Additionally, 2D-materials -infused hydrogels exhibit potent antibacterial activity, making them effective against multidrug-resistant infections and disruption of biofilm generated on implant surface. Moreover, their synergistic therapy approach combines multiple treatment modalities such as photothermal, chemo, and immunotherapy to enhance therapeutic outcomes. In bio-imaging, these materials serve as versatile contrast agents and imaging probes, enabling their real-time monitoring during tumor imaging. Furthermore, in bone regeneration, most 2D-materials incorporated hydrogels promote osteogenesis and tissue regeneration, offering potential solutions for bone defects repair. Overall, the integration of 2D materials into hydrogels presents a promising platform for developing multifunctional theragenerative biomaterials.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by progressive and irreversible damage to the articular cartilage and a consecutive inflammatory response. However, the majority of clinical drugs for OA treatment only alleviate symptoms without addressing the fundamental pathology. To mitigate this issue, we developed an inflammation-responsive carrier and encapsulated bioactive material, namely, LDH@TAGel. The LDH@TAGel was designed with anti-inflammatory and antioxidative abilities, aiming to directly address the pathology of cartilage damage. In particular, LDH was confirmed to restore the ECM secretion function of damaged chondrocytes and attenuate the expression of catabolic matrix metalloproteinases (Mmps). While TAGel showed antioxidant properties by scavenging ROS directly. In vitro evaluation revealed that the LDH@TAGel could protect chondrocytes from inflammation-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis via the Nrf2/Keap1 system and Pi3k-Akt pathway. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the LDH@TAGel could alleviated the degeneration and degradation of cartilage induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT). The OARSI scores indicating OA severity decreased significantly after three weeks of intervention. Moreover, the IVIS image revealed that LDH@TAGel enhances the controlled release of LDH in a manner that can be customized according to the severity of OA, allowing adaptive, precise treatment. In summary, this novel design effectively alleviates the underlying pathological causes of OA-related cartilage damage and has emerged as a promising biomaterial for adaptive, cause-targeted OA therapies.

Abstract
Tissue-engineered poly(l-lactide) (PLLA) scaffolds have been widely used to treat bone defects; however, poor biological activities have always been key challenges for its further application. To address this issue, introducing bioactive drugs or factors is the most commonly used method, but there are often many problems such as high cost, uncontrollable and monotonous drug activity, and poor bioavailability. Here, a drug-free 3D printing PLLA scaffold with a triple-effect combination induced by surface-modified copper-doped layered double hydroxides (Cu-LDHs) is proposed. In the early stage of scaffold implantation, Cu-LDHs exert a photothermal therapy (PTT) effect to generate high temperature to effectively prevent bacterial infection. In the later stage, Cu-LDHs can further have a mild hyperthermia (MHT) effect to stimulate angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation, demonstrating excellent vascularization and osteogenic activity. More importantly, with the degradation of Cu-LDHs, the released Cu2+ and Mg2+ provide an ion microenvironment effect and further synergize with the MHT effect to stimulate angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation, thus more effectively promoting the healing of bone tissue. This triple-effect combined scaffold exhibits outstanding antibacterial, osteogenic, and angiogenic activities, as well as the advantages of low cost, convenient procedure, and long-term efficacy, and is expected to provide a promising strategy for clinical repair of bone defects.

Abstract
Bone diseases including bone defects, bone infections, osteoarthritis, and bone tumors seriously affect life quality of the patient and bring serious economic burdens to social health management, for which the current clinical treatments bear dissatisfactory therapeutic effects. Biomaterial-based strategies have been widely applied in the treatment of orthopedic diseases but are still plagued by deficient bioreactivity. With the development of nanotechnology, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with adjustable metal ion composition and alterable interlayer structure possessing charming physicochemical characteristics, versatile bioactive properties, and excellent drug loading and delivery capabilities arise widespread attention and have achieved considerable achievements for bone disease treatment in the last decade. However, to the authors' best knowledge, no review has comprehensively summarized the advances of LDHs in treating bone disease so far. Herein, the advantages of LDHs for orthopedic disorders treatment are outlined and the corresponding state-of-the-art achievements are summarized for the first time. The potential of LDHs-based nanocomposites for extended therapeutics for bone diseases is highlighted and perspectives for LDHs-based scaffold design are proposed for facilitated clinical translation.

Abstract
The rapid degradation of magnesium (Mg) alloy implants erodes mechanical performance and interfacial bioactivity, thereby limiting their clinical utility. Surface modification is among the solutions to improve corrosion resistance and bioefficacy of Mg alloys. Novel composite coatings that incorporate nanostructures create new opportunities for their expanded use. Particle size dominance and impermeability may increase corrosion resistance and thereby prolong implant service time. Nanoparticles with specific biological effects may be released into the peri-implant microenvironment during the degradation of coatings to promote healing. Composite nanocoatings provide nanoscale surfaces to promote cell adhesion and proliferation. Nanoparticles may activate cellular signaling pathways, while those with porous or core-shell structures may carry antibacterial or immunomodulatory drugs. Composite nanocoatings may promote vascular reendothelialization and osteogenesis, attenuate inflammation, and inhibit bacterial growth, thus increasing their applicability in complex clinical microenvironments such as those of atherosclerosis and open fractures. This review combines the physicochemical properties and biological efficiency of Mg-based alloy biomedical implants to summarize the advantages of composite nanocoatings, analyzes their mechanisms of action, and proposes design and construction strategies, with the purpose of providing a reference for promoting the clinical application of Mg alloy implants and to further the design of nanocoatings.

Development of Dipeptide N–acetyl–L–cysteine Loaded Nanostructured Carriers Based on Inorganic Layered Hydroxides. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15030955.

Abstract
N–acetyl–L–cysteine (NAC), a derivative of the L–cysteine amino acid, presents antioxidant and mucolytic properties of pharmaceutical interest. This work reports the preparation of organic-inorganic nanophases aiming for the development of drug delivery systems based on NAC intercalation into layered double hydroxides (LDH) of zinc–aluminum (Zn2Al–NAC) and magnesium–aluminum (Mg2Al–NAC) compositions. A detailed characterization of the synthesized hybrid materials was performed, including X-ray diffraction (XRD) and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis, infrared and Raman spectroscopies, solid-state 13carbon and 27aluminum nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), simultaneous thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry coupled to mass spectrometry (TG/DSC–MS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and elemental chemical analysis to assess both chemical composition and structure of the samples. The experimental conditions allowed to isolate Zn2Al–NAC nanomaterial with good crystallinity and a loading capacity of 27.3 (m/m)%. On the other hand, NAC intercalation was not successful into Mg2Al–LDH, being oxidized instead. In vitro drug delivery kinetic studies were performed using cylindrical tablets of Zn2Al–NAC in a simulated physiological solution (extracellular matrix) to investigate the release profile. After 96 h, the tablet was analyzed by micro-Raman spectroscopy. NAC was replaced by anions such as hydrogen phosphate by a slow diffusion-controlled ion exchange process. Zn2Al–NAC fulfil basic requirements to be employed as a drug delivery system with a defined microscopic structure, appreciable loading capacity, and allowing a controlled release of NAC.

Titanium-Enriched Medium Promotes Environment-Induced Epigenetic Machinery Changes in Human Endothelial Cells. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14030131.

Abstract
It is important to understand whether endothelial cells are epigenetically affected by titanium-enriched media when angiogenesis is required during bone development and it is expected to be recapitulated during osseointegration of biomaterials. To better address this issue, titanium-enriched medium was obtained from incubation of titanium discs for up to 24 h as recommended by ISO 10993-5:2016, and further used to expose human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) for up to 72 h, when the samples were properly harvested to allow molecular analysis and epigenetics. In general, our data show an important repertoire of epigenetic players in endothelial cells responding to titanium, reinforcing protein related to the metabolism of acetyl and methyl groups, as follows: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) and NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-1 (Sirt1), DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and ten-eleven translocation (TET) methylcytosine dioxygenases, which in conjunction culminate in driving chromatin condensation and the methylation profile of DNA strands, respectively. Taking our data into consideration, HDAC6 emerges as important player of this environment-induced epigenetic mechanism in endothelial cells, while Sirt1 is required in response to stimulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, as its modulation is relevant to vasculature surrounding implanted devices. Collectively, all these findings support the hypothesis that titanium keeps the surrounding microenvironment dynamically active and so affects the performance of endothelial cells by modulating epigenetics. Specifically, this study shows the relevance of HDAC6 as a player in this process, possibly correlated with the cytoskeleton rearrangement of those cells. Furthermore, as those enzymes are druggable, it opens new perspectives to consider the use of small molecules to modulate their activities as a biotechnological tool in order to improve angiogenesis and accelerate bone growth with benefits of a fast recovery time for patients.

Epigenetic Differences Arise in Endothelial Cells Responding to Cobalt–Chromium. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14030127.

Abstract
Cobalt–chromium (Co-Cr)-based alloys are emerging with important characteristics for use in dentistry, but the knowledge of epigenetic mechanisms in endothelial cells has barely been achieved. In order to address this issue, we have prepared a previously Co-Cr-enriched medium to further treat endothelial cells (HUVEC) for up to 72 h. Our data show there is important involvement with epigenetic machinery. Based on the data, it is believed that methylation balance in response to Co-Cr is finely modulated by DNMTs (DNA methyltransferases) and TETs (Tet methylcytosine dioxygenases), especially DNMT3B and both TET1 and TET2. Additionally, histone compaction HDAC6 (histone deacetylase 6) seems to develop a significant effect in endothelial cells. The requirement of SIRT1 seems to have a crucial role in this scenario. SIRT1 is associated with a capacity to modulate the expression of HIF-1α in response to hypoxia microenvironments, thus presenting a protective effect. As mentioned previously, cobalt is able to prevent HIF1A degradation and maintain hypoxia-related signaling in eukaryotic cells. Together, our results show, for the first time, a descriptive study reporting the relevance of epigenetic machinery in endothelial cells responding to cobalt–chromium, and it opens new perspectives to better understand their repercussions as prerequisites for driving cell adhesion, cell cycle progression, and angiogenesis surrounding this Co-Cr-based implantable device.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) offer unique source of inspiration for design of bone mimetic biomaterials due to their superior mechanical properties, drug delivery capability and regulation cellular behaviors, particularly by divalent metal cations in their structure. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting of LDHs holds great promise as a novel strategy thanks to highly tunable physiochemical properties and shear-thinning ability of LDHs, which allow shape fidelity after deposition. Herein, we introduce a straightforward strategy for extrusion bioprinting of cell laden nanocomposite hydrogel bioink of gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) biopolymer and LDHs nanoparticles. First, we synthesized LDHs by co-precipitation process and systematically examined the effect of LDHs addition on printing parameters such as printing pressure, extrusion rate, printing speed, and finally bioink printability in creating grid-like constructs. The developed hydrogel bioinks provided precise control over extrudability, extrusion uniformity, and structural integrity after deposition. Based on the printability and rheological analysis, the printability could be altered by controlling the concentration of LDHs, and printability was found to be ideal with the addition of 3 wt % LDHs. The addition of LDHs resulted in remarkably enhanced compressive strength from 652 kPa (G-LDH0) to 1168 kPa (G-LDH3). It was shown that the printed nanocomposite hydrogel scaffolds were able to support encapsulated osteoblast survival, spreading, and proliferation in the absence of any osteoinductive factors taking advantage of LDHs. In addition, cells encapsulated in G-LDH3 had a larger cell spreading area and higher cell aspect ratio than those encapsulated in G-LDH0. Altogether, the results demonstrated that the developed GelMA/LDHs nanocomposite hydrogel bioink revealed a high potential for extrusion bioprinting with high structural fidelity to fabricate implantable 3D hydrogel constructs for repair of bone defects.

Abstract
The development of biomaterials has a substantial role in pharmaceutical and medical strategies for the enhancement of life quality. This review work focused on versatile biomaterials based on nanocomposites comprising organic polymers and a class of layered inorganic nanoparticles, aiming for drug delivery (oral, transdermal, and ocular delivery) and tissue engineering (skin and bone therapies). Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are 2D nanomaterials that can intercalate anionic bioactive species between the layers. The layers can hold metal cations that confer intrinsic biological activity to LDHs as well as biocompatibility. The intercalation of bioactive species between the layers allows the formation of drug delivery systems with elevated loading capacity and modified release profiles promoted by ion exchange and/or solubilization. The capacity of tissue integration, antigenicity, and stimulation of collagen formation, among other beneficial characteristics of LDH, have been observed by in vivo assays. The association between the properties of biocompatible polymers and LDH-drug nanohybrids produces multifunctional nanocomposites compatible with living matter. Such nanocomposites are stimuli-responsive, show appropriate mechanical properties, and can be prepared by creative methods that allow a fine-tuning of drug release. They are processed in the end form of films, beads, gels, monoliths etc., to reach orientated therapeutic applications. Several studies attest to the higher performance of polymer/LDH-drug nanocomposite compared to the LDH-drug hybrid or the free drug.

Abstract
Nerve tissue engineering (NTE) is an effective approach for repairing damaged nerve tissue. In this regard, nanoparticle-incorporated electrospun scaffolds have aroused a great deal of interest in NTE applications. In this study, layered double hydroxide (LDH)-incorporated polycaprolactone (PCL)/gelatin (Gel) nanofibrous scaffolds were fabricated by an electrospinning technique. The physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties of the scaffolds were examined. Also, the phase identification, morphology, and elemental composition were studied using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, respectively. The results revealed that the inclusion of LDH nanoparticles into the PCL/Gel scaffold has improved its mechanical strength and elongation at the break, while the degradation rate was enhanced in comparison with the pure PCL/Gel mat. The LDH-enriched electrospun PCL/Gel scaffolds exhibited a considerable impact on cell attachment and proliferation. The gene expression results showed that the neuron-specific (γγ) enolase (NSE) gene expression was significantly decreased in the scaffolds containing 1 and 10 wt % LDH compared to the scaffold without LDH, whereas in the scaffold with 0.1 wt % LDH, a slight increase in expression was observed. It can be deduced that electrospun PCL/Gel scaffolds containing LDH with optimum concentration can be a promising candidate for nerve tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Recent decades have witnessed a surge of explorations into the application of multifarious materials, especially biomedical applications. Among them, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely developed as typical inorganic layer materials to achieve remarkable advancements. Multiple physicochemical properties endow LDHs with excellent merits in biomedical applications. Moreover, LDH nanoplatforms could serve as "molecular switches", which are capable of the controlled release of payloads under specific physiological pH conditions but are stable during circulation in the bloodstream. In addition, LDHs themselves are composed of several specific cations and possess favorable biological effects or regulatory roles in various cellular functions. These advantages have caused LDHs to become increasingly of interest in the area of nanomedicine. Recent efforts have been devoted to revealing the potential factors that interfere with the biological pathways of LDH-based nanoparticles, such as their applications in shaping the functions of immune cells and in determining the fate of stem cells and tumor treatments, which are comprehensively described herein. In addition, several intracellular signaling pathways interfering with by LDHs in the above applications were also systematically expatiated. Finally, the future development and challenges of LDH-based nanomedicine are discussed in the context of the ultimate goal of practical clinical application.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D)-bioprinting as an emerging approach for tissue engineering possesses the promise to create highly mimicked organs or tissues by using computer-aided design. For biomedical applications in tissue engineering in our previous work, we developed an optimized nanocomposite bioink based on methylacrylated gelatin (GelMA), methylacrylated chitosan (ChitMA), and double-layered hydroxide (LDHs) nanoparticles by using 3D-bioprinting technology. Herein, we used the previous formulation to fabricate human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMMSCs)-laden nanocomposite bioinks. The effect of LDHs nanoparticles on the cellular behaviors of the encapsulated-hBMMSCs in the scaffolds was evaluated for the first time. Live/Dead, PrestoBlue, and DAPI/Actin analysis were carried out to assess the cell viability, proliferation rate, and cellular morphology of encapsulated hBMMSCs within the scaffolds. In addition, osteogenic differentiation studies were performed culturing the scaffolds for up to 21 days. Results show that LDHs nanoparticles in the GelMA/ChitMA scaffold formulation increased the viability of hBMMSCs, did not cause any adverse effect on the proliferation rate, cell morphology of the hBMMSCs, and increased the Runx2 protein expression of the encapsulated-hBMMSCs in the scaffolds. This study progresses the LDHs containing nanocomposite bioink for cell printing applications in tissue engineering.

Abstract
In recent decades, bone tissue engineering has had an effective role in introducing orthopedic implants. In this regard, polymeric scaffolds reinforced with bioactive nanomaterials can offer great potential in tissue engineering implants for replacing bone loss in patients. In this study, the thermally induced phase separation method was used to fabricate three-dimensional highly porous scaffolds made of layered double hydroxide (LDH)/polycaprolactone (PCL) nanocomposites with varied LDH contents ranging from 0.1 wt.% to 10 wt.%. The Phase identification, morphology, and elemental composition were studied using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, respectively. Interconnected pores ranging from 5 to 150 µm were detected in all samples. The results revealed that the inclusion of LDH to PCL scaffold reinforced mechanical strength and compressive modulus increased from 0.6418 to 1.3251 for the pure PCL and PCL + LDH (1 Wt.%) scaffolds, respectively. Also, thermal stability, degradation rate, and biomineralization especially in comparison with the pure PCL were enhanced. Adhesion, viability, and proliferation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) seeded on PCL + LDH scaffolds were improved as compared to the pure PCL. Furthermore, the addition of LDH resulted in the increased mineral deposition as well as expression of ALP and RUNX2 osteogenic genes in terms of differentiation. All in all, our findings revealed that PCL + LDH (1 Wt.%) scaffold might be an ideal choice for 3D scaffold design in bone tissue engineering approaches.

Abstract
Zinc is an essential trace element for bone growth and bone homeostasis in the human body. Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are multipotent progenitors existing in the bone marrow stroma with the capability of differentiating along multiple lineage pathways. Zinc plays a paramount role in BMSCs, which can be spurred differentiating into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, or adipocytes, and modulates the formation and activity of osteoclasts. The expression of related genes also changed during the differentiation of various cell phenotypes. Based on the important role of zinc in BMSC differentiation, using zinc as a therapeutic approach for bone remodeling will be a promising method. This review explores the role of zinc ion in the differentiation of BMSCs into various cell phenotypes and outlines the existing research on their molecular mechanism.

Abstract
Polycaprolactone (PCL) is a polymer material suitable for being prepared into porous scaffolds used in bone tissue engineering, however, insufficient osteogenic ability and mechanical strength limit its application. Zinc (Zn) alloy with proper mechanical strength and osteogenesis is a promising biodegradable metal that have attracted much attention. Herein, we combined the advantages of PCL and Zn by fabricating PCL/Zn composite scaffolds with different Zn powder contents (1 wt%, 2 wt%, 3 wt%) through fused deposition modelling. The mechanical property, cytocompatibility and Zn ions release behavior of PCL/Zn scaffolds were analyzed in vitro. The osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis properties of the scaffolds were evaluated by being implanted into Sprague-Dawley rats calvaria defect. Results showed that the PCL/Zn scaffolds exhibited improved mechanical properties and cytocompatibility compared with the pure PCL scaffolds. At 8 weeks after in vivo implantaion, the addition of Zn powder promoted new bone formation, in a dose-dependent manner. The scaffolds with 2 wt% Zn displayed the best osteogenic effect, while the osteogenic effect was slightly reduced in the scaffolds with 3 wt% Zn. In the studied Zn contents, the PCL/Zn scaffolds gradually promoted osteoclastogenesis with increasd Zn content. In the 3 wt% Zn group, TRAP-positive cells were observed on the newly formed bone edges around the scaffolds. These dose-dependent effects were verified in vitro using MC3T3-E1 and RAW264.7 cells. Finally, we revealed that Zn2+ regulated osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis by activation of the Wnt/β-catenin and NF-κB signalling pathways, respectively.

Abstract
Inefficient differentiation and poor engraftment hinder the clinical applications of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based cell therapies in regenerative medicine. Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles are sheet-like materials with desirable biocompatibility and anion-exchange properties and have been widely applied as drug and nucleotide carriers in the field of tissue repair. However, few studies have focused on the biological effects of LDH itself. In this study, we demonstrated the novel function of LDH in stimulating osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs). The expression of osteogenic-related genes, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and calcium deposits were significantly increased after LDH treatment. Mechanistic analysis performed with RNA sequencing revealed that LDH promoted osteogenesis by targeting the LGR5/β-catenin axis. LDH also inactivated IKK/NF-κB signaling under LPS-triggered inflamed conditions, suggesting the dual benefits of LDH in enhancing bone regeneration and alleviating the inflammatory response. Furthermore, we utilized LDH as the transport vehicle of the osteoinductive miRNA let-7d to synergistically regulate BMSCs toward the osteoblastic lineage. The LDH/let-7d complex resulted in a better induction of osteogenesis than LDH alone. For cell transplantation, BMSCs were seeded in LDH/let-7d-incorporated fibrin scaffolds, which proved enhanced osteoinduction capability in the subcutaneous ectopic osteogenesis model in nude mice. Taken together, this study provides a novel strategy for effective and synergistic improvement of osteogenesis via LDH-mediated delivery of miRNA let-7d, thus shedding light on the future application of LDH in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), when incorporated into biomaterials, provide a tunable composition, controllable particle size, anion exchange capacity, pH-sensitive solubility, high-drug loading efficiency, efficient gene and drug delivery, controlled release and effective intracellular uptake, natural biodegradability in an acidic medium, and negligible toxicity. In this review, we study potential applications of LDH-based nanocomposite scaffolds for tissue engineering. We address how LDHs provide new solutions for nanostructure stability and enhance in vivo studies' success.

Abstract
LAPONITE® clay nanoparticles are known to exert osteogenic effects on human bone marrow stromal cells (HBMSCs), most characteristically, an upregulation in alkaline phosphatase activity and increased calcium deposition. The specific properties of LAPONITE® that impart its bioactivity are not known. In this study the role of lithium, a LAPONITE® degradation product, was investigated through the use of lithium salts and lithium modified LAPONITE® formulations. In contrast to intact particles, lithium ions applied at concentrations equivalent to that present in LAPONITE®, failed to induce any significant increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. Furthermore, no significant differences were observed in ALP activity with modified clay structures and the positive effect on osteogenic gene expression did not correlate with the lithium content of modified clays. These results suggest that other properties of LAPONITE® nanoparticles, and not their lithium content, are responsible for their bioactivity.

Abstract
Bone infections following open bone fracture or implant surgery remain a challenge in the orthopedics field. In order to avoid high doses of systemic drug administration, optimized local antibiotic release from scaffolds is required. 3D additive manufactured (AM) scaffolds made with biodegradable polymers are ideal to support bone healing in non-union scenarios and can be given antimicrobial properties by the incorporation of antibiotics. In this study, ciprofloxacin and gentamicin intercalated in the interlamellar spaces of magnesium aluminum layered double hydroxides (MgAl) and α-zirconium phosphates (ZrP), respectively, are dispersed within a thermoplastic polymer by melt compounding and subsequently processed via high temperature melt extrusion AM (~190 °C) into 3D scaffolds. The inorganic fillers enable a sustained antibiotics release through the polymer matrix, controlled by antibiotics counterions exchange or pH conditions. Importantly, both antibiotics retain their functionality after the manufacturing process at high temperatures, as verified by their activity against both Gram + and Gram - bacterial strains. Moreover, scaffolds loaded with filler-antibiotic do not impair human mesenchymal stromal cells osteogenic differentiation, allowing matrix mineralization and the expression of relevant osteogenic markers. Overall, these results suggest the possibility of fabricating dual functionality 3D scaffolds via high temperature melt extrusion for bone regeneration and infection prevention.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), known as a class of anionic clays, have attracted considerable attention recently due to their potential applications in different areas as catalyst materials, energy materials, and adsorbent materials for environmental remediation, especially for anionic pollutant removal. In this study, magnesium aluminum layered double hydroxide (MgAl-LDH) was synthesized by two methods: standard coprecipitation and urea hydrolysis. Their textural properties and morphologies were examined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetry (TG) and differential (DTG) analysis, and point of zero charge (pHpzc). The specific surface area was calculated from BET adsorption equation. The results indicated that the crystallinity and the regularity of the samples prepared by urea hydrolysis were much preferable to those prepared by the coprecipitation method. Their sorption properties toward phosphate were investigated and the experimental evidence showed that, at the initial concentration of 100 mg L-1 and at room temperature, the LDH synthesized by urea hydrolysis had a percentage removal of 94.3 ± 1.12% toward phosphate ions while 74.1 ± 1.34% were uptaked by LDH synthesized by coprecipitation method, suggesting that the crystallinity affects the sorption capability. The sorption mechanism indicates that phosphate ions could be sorbed onto LDHs via electrostatic attraction, ligand exchange, and ion exchange.

Abstract
For bone purposes, surface modifications are a common trend in biomaterials research aiming to reduce the time necessary for osteointegration, culminating in faster recovery of patients. In this scenario, analysis of intracellular signaling pathways have emerged as an important and reliable strategy to predict biological responses from in vitro approaches. We have combined global analysis of intracellular protein phosphorylation, systems biology and bioinformatics into an early biomaterial analysis routine called OsteoBLAST. We employed the routine as follows: the PamChip tyrosine kinase assay was applied to mesenchymal stem cells grown on three distinct titanium surfaces: machined, dual acid-etched and nanoHA. Then, OsteoBLAST was able to identify the most reliable spots to further obtain the differential kinome profile and finally to allow a comparison among the different surfaces. Thereafter, NetworKIN, STRING, and Cytoscape were used to build and analyze a supramolecular protein-protein interaction network, and DAVID tools identified biological signatures in the differential kinome for each surface.

The Impact of Bioactive Surfaces in the Early Stages of Osseointegration: An In Vitro Comparative Study Evaluating the HAnano® and SLActive® Super Hydrophilic Surfaces. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:3026893.

Abstract
There is an increased effort on developing novel and active surfaces in order to accelerate their osteointegration, such as nanosized crystalline hydroxyapatite coating (HAnano®). To better understand the biological behavior of osteoblasts grown on HAnano® surface, the set of data was compared with SLActive®, a hydrophilic sandblasted titanium surface. Methodologically, osteoblasts were seeded on both surfaces up to 72 hours, to allow evaluating cell adhesion, viability, and set of genes encoding proteins related with adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Our data shows HAnano® displays an interesting substrate to support cell adhesion with typical spread morphologic cells, while SLActive®-adhering cells presented fusiform morphology. Our data shows that the cellular adhesion mechanism was accompanied with upexpression of integrin β1, Fak, and Src, favoring the assembling of focal adhesion platforms and coupling cell cycle progression (upmodulating of Cdk2, Cdk4, and Cdk6 genes) in response to HAnano®. Additionally, both bioactive surfaces promoted osteoblast differentiation stimulus, by activating Runx2, Osterix, and Alp genes. Although both surfaces promoted Rankl gene expression, Opg gene expression was higher in SLActive® and this difference reflected on the Rankl/Opg ratio. Finally, Caspase1 gene was significantly upmodulated in response to HAnano® and it suggests an involvement of the inflammasome complex. Collectively, this study provides enough evidences to support that the nanohydroxyapatite-coated surface provides the necessary microenvironment to drive osteoblast performance on dental implants and these stages of osteogenesis are expected during the early stages of osseointegration.

Abstract
Two in silico methodologies were implemented to reveal the molecular signatures of inorganic hydroxyapatite and β-TCP materials from a transcriptome database to compare biomaterials. To test this new methodology, we choose the array E-MTAB-7219, which contains the transcription profile of osteoblastic cell line seeded onto 15 different biomaterials up to 48 hr. The expansive potential of the methodology was tested from the construction of customized signatures. We present, for the first time, a methodology to compare the performance of different biomaterials using the transcriptome profile of the cell through the Gene set variation analysis (GSVA) score. To test this methodology, we implemented two methods based on MSigDB collections, using all the collections and sub-collections except the Hallmark collection, which was used in the second method. The result of this analysis provided an initial understanding of biomaterial grouping based on the cell transcriptional landscape. The comparison using GSVA score combined efforts and expand the potential to compare biomaterials using transcriptome profile. Altogether, our results provide a better understanding of the comparison of different biomaterials and suggest a possibility of the new methodology be applied to the prospection of new biomaterials.

Abstract
The insufficient osteogenesis and osseointegration of porous titanium based scaffold limit its further application. Early angiogenesis is important for scaffold survival. It is necessary to develop a multifunctional surface on titanium scaffold with both osteogenic and angiogenic properties. In this study, a biofunctional magnesium coating is deposited on porous Ti6Al4V scaffold. For osseointegration and osteogenesis analysis, in vitro studies reveal that magnesium-coated Ti6Al4V co-culture with MC3T3-E1 cells can improve cell proliferation, adhesion, extracellular matrix (ECM) mineralization and ALP activity compared with bare Ti6Al4V cocultivation. Additionally, MC3T3-E1 cells cultured with magnesium-coated Ti6Al4V show significantly higher osteogenesis-related genes expression. In vivo studies including fluorochrome labeling, micro-computerized tomography and histological examination of magnesium-coated Ti6Al4V scaffold reveal that new bone regeneration is significantly increased in rabbits after implantation. For angiogenesis studies, magnesium-coated Ti6Al4V improve HUVECs proliferation, adhesion, tube formation, wound-healing and Transwell abilities. HUVECs cultured with magnesium-coated Ti6Al4V display significantly higher angiogenesis-related genes (HIF-1α and VEGF) expression. Microangiography analysis reveal that magnesium-coated Ti6Al4V scaffold can significantly enhance the blood vessel formation. This study enlarges the application scope of magnesium and provides an optional choice to the conventional porous Ti6Al4V scaffold with enhanced osteogenesis and angiogenesis for further orthopedic applications.

Abstract
As osteogenesis is a multifactorial mechanism, we wonder whether osteoblast-induced extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling might be modulated by trophic factors released by fibroblasts in a paracrine signaling manner. To address this issue, fibroblasts were cultured for 72 h under conventional conditions when their conditioned medium was harvested and used to challenge pre-osteoblasts (MC3T3-E1 cells) for 14 days. Preliminarily, we validated the potential effect of fibroblasts in contributing to osteocyte phenotype, which specifically requires significant expression of Dentin Matrix Protein 1 (DMP1; about 10-fold changes) and Sclerostin (SOST; about 7-fold changes), both biomarkers of osteocyte. Fibroblasts also seem contributing to ECM remodeling in osteoblasts, because we detected a high level of both mRNA and enzyme activities of matrix metalloproteinase -9 (MMP-9) as well as a high level of reversion inducing cysteine rich protein with kazal motifs (RECK) transcripts (about 13-fold changes), a membrane-anchored MMP inhibitor, which seems to be a constitutive pathway in osteoblasts. Considering inflammatory panorama and using RTqPCR technology, both IL-13 (about 13-fold changes) and IL-33 (about 5-fold changes) genes were up-expressed in response to the fibroblast-secreted trophic factors, as were the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL; about 8-fold changes) and osteoprotegerin (OPG; about 3-fold changes). Although preliminary, these data suggest a stimulus to finely control osteoclastogenesis, and this mechanism reinforces the role of fibroblasts in bone remodeling and homeostasis. Moreover, these results suggest an important crosstalk between fibroblast and osteoblast, when fibroblast-secreted trophic factors upmodulate osteocyte gene markers and contribute to ECM remodeling stimulus in osteoblast.

HOXA cluster gene expression during osteoblast differentiation involves epigenetic control. Bone 2019; 125:74-86. [PMID: 31054377 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2019.04.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2019] [Revised: 04/25/2019] [Accepted: 04/30/2019] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
The HOXA gene cluster is generally recognized as a pivotal mediator of positional identity in the skeletal system, expression of different orthologues conferring alternative locational phenotype of the vertebrate bone. Strikingly, however, the molecular mechanisms that regulate orthologue-specific expression of different HOXA cluster members in gestating osteoblasts remain largely obscure, but in analogy to the processes observed in acute lymphatic leukemia it is assumed that alternative methylation of HOXA promoter regions drives position specific expression patterns. In an effort to understand HOXA cluster gene expression in osteogenesis we characterize both expression and the epigenetic landscape of the HOXA gene cluster during in vitro osteoblast formation from mesenchymal precursors. We observe that osteoblast formation per se provokes strong upregulation of HOXA gene cluster expression, in particular of midcluster genes, and paradoxal downregulation of HOXA7 and HOXA10. These differences in expression appear related to promoter methylation. LnRNAs HOTAIR and HOTTIP, known to modulate HOXA expression, are also regulated by their promoter methylation processing, but do not correlate with HOXA cluster expression profile. We thus conclude that HOXA expression is profoundly regulated during osteoblast differentiation through canonical methylation-dependent mechanisms but not through the flanking lnRNAs.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) are an emergent class of biocompatible inorganic lamellar nanomaterials that have attracted significant research interest owing to their high surface-to-volume ratio, the capability to accumulate specific molecules, and the timely release to targets. Their unique properties have been employed for applications in organic catalysis, photocatalysis, sensors, drug delivery, and cell biology. Given the widespread contemporary interest in these topics, time-to-time it urges to review the recent progresses. This review aims to summarize the most recent cutting-edge reports appearing in the last years. It firstly focuses on the application of LDHs as catalysts in relevant chemical reactions and as photocatalysts for organic molecule degradation, water splitting reaction, CO2 conversion, and reduction. Subsequently, the emerging role of these materials in biological applications is discussed, specifically focusing on their use as biosensors, DNA, RNA, and drug delivery, finally elucidating their suitability as contrast agents and for cellular differentiation. Concluding remarks and future prospects deal with future applications of LDHs, encouraging researches in better understanding the fundamental mechanisms involved in catalytic and photocatalytic processes, and the molecular pathways that are activated by the interaction of LDHs with cells in terms of both uptake mechanisms and nanotoxicology effects.

Abstract
Bone remolding involves the formation of new bone by osteoblasts and the absorption of old bones by osteoclasts. Due to the vital role of osteoblasts and osteoclasts during bone regeneration, it might be feasible to promote osseointegration around the titanium implants by stimulating osteoblasts and inhibiting osteoclasts by modifying the surfaces of the implants. Lithium is used in the treatment of psychiatric patients, and it may be associated with osteogenesis. In this study, lithium was incorporated with sandblasted, large-grit and acid-etched titanium implants via a hydrothermal treatment. In vitro, the nano-scale surface enhanced the adhesion and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Moreover, the SLA-Li surface displayed a negative effect on the process of osteoclastogenesis. Further mechanism analysis indicated that the canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway was activated according to the results of RT-PCR and western blotting. More importantly, the RANKL/OPG signaling axis was also involved in these effects on the SLA-Li surface. The experiments in vivo proved that the SLA-Li surface could induce the bone formation and osseointegration during the early osseointegration after the dental implant surgery. These results suggested that bone homeostasis could be manipulated by an SLA-Li surface, which implied that this new surface might serve as a promising material for clinical application in the future.

Abstract
Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) have emerged as promising nanomaterials for human health and although it has achieved some progress on this matter, their application within bioengineering is not fully addressed. This prompted to subject fibroblasts to two compositions of LDHs (Mg2 Al-Cl and Zn2 Al-Cl), considering an acute response. First, LDH particles are addressed by scanning electron microscopy, and no significant effect of the cell culture medium on the shape of LDHs particles is reported although it seems to adsorb some soluble proteins as proposed by energy-dispersive X-ray analysis. These LDHs release magnesium, zinc, and aluminum, but there is no cytotoxic or biocompatibility effects. The data show interference to fibroblast adhesion by driving the reorganization of actin-based cytoskeleton, preliminarily to cell cycle progression. Additionally, these molecular findings are validated by performing a functional wound-healing assay, which is accompanied by a dynamic extracellular matrix remodeling in response to the LDHs. Altogether, the results show that LDHs nanomaterials modulate cell adhesion, proliferation, and migration, delineating new advances on the biomaterial field applied in the context of soft tissue bioengineering, which must be explored in health disorders, such as wound healing in burn injuries.

Sonic hedgehog drives layered double hydroxides-induced acute inflammatory landscape. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2019; 174:467-475. [PMID: 30497008 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2018.11.051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2018] [Revised: 10/31/2018] [Accepted: 11/20/2018] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
Although layered double hydroxides (LDH) have been listed as promising nanomaterials in human healthcare, very little has been achieved on osteoblast inflammatory signaling. Thus, osteoblasts were challenged with two LDHs (Mg2Al-Cl and Zn2Al-Cl, at 0.002 mg/mL) up to 24 h, establishing an acute inflammatory mechanism, as well as identifying whether Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling has an influence. Functional experiments were performed by previously treating (2 h) semiconfluent osteoblast cultures with cyclopamine molecule (cyc), a widely used Shh inhibitor. Considering inflammasome complex, the asc1 gene was significantly up-expressed in response to Zn2Al-Cl - LDHs, as well as the nrlp3 gene. By treating the osteoblast with cyc, the asc1 gene presented an even higher profile. Our results found a down-modulation of major pro-inflammatory cytokines-related genes, when tnfα and il1ß were significantly down-modulated in response to LDHs. Conversely, anti-inflammatory cytokines were up-modulated considering the same experimental procedures. Except the il6, the other il13, il10, and tgfß genes were up modulated. Additionally, Shh signaling seems to modulate this repertory as both the il13 and il10 genes were significantly up-modulated when the Shh signaling was inhibited. Altogether, our results reveal for the first time the exigency of Shh-dependent anti-inflammatory signals in LDH-induced osteoblast responses.
