Percival KM, Paul V, Husseini GA. Recent Advancements in Bone Tissue Engineering: Integrating Smart Scaffold Technologies and Bio-Responsive Systems for Enhanced Regeneration. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:6012. [PMID: 38892199 PMCID: PMC11172494 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25116012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2024] [Revised: 05/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/21/2024] Open
Abstract
In exploring the challenges of bone repair and regeneration, this review evaluates the potential of bone tissue engineering (BTE) as a viable alternative to traditional methods, such as autografts and allografts. Key developments in biomaterials and scaffold fabrication techniques, such as additive manufacturing and cell and bioactive molecule-laden scaffolds, are discussed, along with the integration of bio-responsive scaffolds, which can respond to physical and chemical stimuli. These advancements collectively aim to mimic the natural microenvironment of bone, thereby enhancing osteogenesis and facilitating the formation of new tissue. Through a comprehensive combination of in vitro and in vivo studies, we scrutinize the biocompatibility, osteoinductivity, and osteoconductivity of these engineered scaffolds, as well as their interactions with critical cellular players in bone healing processes. Findings from scaffold fabrication techniques and bio-responsive scaffolds indicate that incorporating nanostructured materials and bioactive compounds is particularly effective in promoting the recruitment and differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells. The therapeutic potential of these advanced biomaterials in clinical settings is widely recognized and the paper advocates continued research into multi-responsive scaffold systems.

Abstract
Surfaces with biological functionalities are of great interest for biomaterials, tissue engineering, biophysics, and for controlling biological processes. The layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly is a highly versatile methodology introduced 30 years ago, which consists of assembling complementary polyelectrolytes or biomolecules in a stepwise manner to form thin self-assembled films. In view of its simplicity, compatibility with biological molecules, and adaptability to any kind of supporting material carrier, this technology has undergone major developments over the past decades. Specific applications have emerged in different biomedical fields owing to the possibility to load or immobilize biomolecules with preserved bioactivity, to use an extremely broad range of biomolecules and supporting carriers, and to modify the film's mechanical properties via crosslinking. In this review, the focus is on the recent developments regarding LbL films formed as 2D or 3D objects for applications in drug delivery and tissue engineering. Possible applications in the fields of vaccinology, 3D biomimetic tissue models, as well as bone and cardiovascular tissue engineering are highlighted. In addition, the most recent technological developments in the field of film construction, such as high-content liquid handling or machine learning, which are expected to open new perspectives in the future developments of LbL, are presented.

Abstract
Advances in modern medicine and the significant reduction in infant mortality have steadily increased the population's lifespan. As more and more people in the world grow older, incidence of chronic, noncommunicable disease is anticipated to drastically increase. Recent studies have shown that improving the health of the aging population is anticipated to provide the most cost-effective and impactful improvement in quality of life during aging-driven disease. In bone, aging is tightly linked to increased risk of fracture, and markedly decreased regenerative potential, deeming it critical to develop therapeutics to improve aging-driven bone regeneration. Biomimetics offer a cost-effective method in regenerative therapeutics for bone, where there are numerous innovations improving outcomes in young models, but adapting biomimetics to aged models is still a challenge. Chronic inflammation, accumulation of reactive oxygen species, and cellular senescence are among three of the more unique challenges facing aging-induced defect repair. This review dissects many of the innovative biomimetic approaches research groups have taken to tackle these challenges, and discusses the further uncertainties that need to be addressed to push the field further. Through these research innovations, it can be noted that biomimetic therapeutics hold great potential for the future of aging-complicated defect repair.

Abstract
Polymer complex multilayers (PCMs) can be engineered into various structures with tunable properties via layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly driven by noncovalent forces. Due to their ease of preparation, capability of integrating multiple functional components, and excellent substrate compliance, biocompatible PCMs as coating materials or individual entities have attracted extensive attention in biomedical applications. This Spotlight on Applications presents recent progress on PCMs applied for drug delivery and medical devices. We provide several examples to address the importance of using PCM platforms to achieve controlled drug delivery including stimuli-triggered release, sustained release, and spatiotemporal sequential release. The effects of PCM coatings on the bioresponse regulation and performance enhancement of implantable devices are also highlighted. Moreover, the design and fabrication of flexible electrical and optical elements modified with LBL PCMs have been discussed, which demonstrates the great potential to advance emerging wearable devices for disease monitoring and health management.

A Molecular Troika of Angiogenesis, Coagulopathy and Endothelial Dysfunction in the Pathology of Avascular Necrosis of Femoral Head: A Comprehensive Review. Cells 2023; 12:2278. [PMID: 37759498 PMCID: PMC10528276 DOI: 10.3390/cells12182278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/13/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) is a painful disorder characterized by the cessation of blood supply to the femoral head, leading to its death and subsequent joint collapse. Influenced by several risk factors, including corticosteroid use, excessive alcohol intake, hypercholesterolemia, smoking and some inflammatory disorders, along with cancer, its clinical consequences are thrombus formation due to underlying inflammation and endothelial dysfunction, which collaborates with coagulopathy and impaired angiogenesis. Nonetheless, angiogenesis resolves the obstructed free flow of the blood by providing alternative routes. Clinical manifestations of early stage of ANFH mimic cysts or lesions in subchondral bone, vasculitis and transient osteoporosis of the hip, rendering it difficult to diagnose, complex to understand and complicated to cure. To date, the treatment methods for ANFH are controversial as no foolproof curative strategy is available, and these depend upon different severity levels of the ANFH. From an in-depth understanding of the pathological determinants of ANFH, it is clear that impaired angiogenesis, coagulopathy and endothelial dysfunction contribute significantly. The present review has set two aims, firstly to examine the role and relevance of this molecular triad (impaired angiogenesis, coagulopathy and endothelial dysfunction) in ANFH pathology and secondly to propose some putative therapeutic strategies, delineating the fact that, for the better management of ANFH, a combined strategy to curtail this molecular triangle must be composed rather than focusing on individual contributions.

Abstract
Microneedles are a well-known transdermal or transdermal drug delivery system. Different from intramuscular injection, intravenous injection, etc., the microneedle delivery system provides unique characteristics for immunotherapy administration. Microneedles can deliver immunotherapeutic agents to the epidermis and dermis, where immune cells are abundant, unlike conventional vaccine systems. Furthermore, microneedle devices can be designed to respond to certain endogenous or exogenous stimuli including pH, reactive oxygen species (ROS), enzyme, light, temperature, or mechanical force, thereby allowing controlled release of active compounds in the epidermis and dermis. In this way, multifunctional or stimuli-responsive microneedles for immunotherapy could enhance the efficacy of immune responses to prevent or mitigate disease progression and lessen systemic adverse effects on healthy tissues and organs. Since microneedles are a promising drug delivery system for accurate delivery and controlled drug release, this review focuses on the progress of using reactive microneedles for immunotherapy, especially for tumors. Limitations of current microneedle system are summarized, and the controllable administration and targeting of reactive microneedle systems are examined.

Enhancing bioactivity and stability of polymer-based material-tissue interface through coupling multiscale interfacial interactions with atomic-thin TiO 2 nanosheets. NANO RESEARCH 2022; 16:5247-5255.

Abstract
Stable and bioactive material-tissue interface (MTF) basically determines the clinical applications of biomaterials in wound healing, sustained drug release, and tissue engineering. Although many inorganic nanomaterials have been widely explored to enhance the stability and bioactivity of polymer-based biomaterials, most are still restricted by their stability and biocompatibility. Here we demonstrate the enhanced bioactivity and stability of polymer-matrix bio-composite through coupling multiscale material-tissue interfacial interactions with atomically thin TiO2 nanosheets. Resin modified with TiO2 nanosheets displays improved mechanical properties, hydrophilicity, and stability. Also, we confirm that this resin can effectively stimulate the adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation into osteogenic and odontogenic lineages of human dental pulp stem cells using in vitro cell-resin interface model. TiO2 nanosheets can also enhance the interaction between demineralized dentinal collagen and resin. Our results suggest an approach to effectively up-regulate the stability and bioactivity of MTFs by designing biocompatible materials at the sub-nanoscale. Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material (further details of fabrication and characterization of TiO2 NSs and TiO2-ARCs, the bioactivity evaluation of TiO2-ARCs on hDPSCs, and the measurement of interaction with demineralized dentin collagen) is available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s12274-022-5153-1.

Abstract
New frontiers in the development of stimuli-responsive surfaces that offer switchable properties according to the end-use application have added a new dimension to the design of drug-delivery systems (DDS). In this respect, layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembled technologies have attracted interest in nano-DDS (NDDS) design due to the advantage of encapsulating different drug types either individually or in multiple formulations as an easy-to-apply and cost-effective strategy. LbL-based microcapsules and core-shell structures in the form of polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) have been proposed as versatile vehicles for NDDS over the last quarter. This review aims to provide a global view of LbL-PEMs used as templates in NDDS for the last 5 years with an emphasis on emerging drug loading and release strategies.

Abstract
We report the design and characterization of pH-responsive polymer coatings that enable catheter balloon-mediated transfer of DNA to arterial tissue in short, clinically relevant inflation times. Our approach exploits the pH-dependent ionization of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) to promote disassembly and release of plasmid DNA from polyelectrolyte multilayers. We characterized the contact transfer of multilayers composed of PAA, plasmid DNA, and linear poly(ethyleneimine) (LPEI) identified as promising in prior studies on the delivery of DNA to arterial tissue. In contrast to thinner films evaluated previously, we found thicker coatings composed of 32 repeating (LPEI/PAA/LPEI/DNA)x tetralayers to swell substantially in physiologically relevant media (in PBS; pH = 7.4). In some cases, these coatings also disintegrated or delaminated rapidly from their underlying substrates, suggesting the potential for enhanced balloon-mediated transfer. We developed a technically straightforward agarose gel-based hole-insertion model to characterize factors (inflation time, lumen size, etc.) that influence contact transfer of DNA when film-coated balloons are inflated into contact with soft surfaces. Those studies and the results of in vivo experiments using small animal (rat) and large animal (pig) models of peripheral arterial injury revealed catheters coated with these materials to promote robust contact transfer of DNA to soft hydrogel surfaces and the luminal surfaces of arterial tissue using inflation times as short as 30 s. These short inflation times are relevant in the context of clinical vascular interventions in peripheral arteries. Additional studies demonstrated that contact transfer of DNA using these short times can promote subsequent dissemination and transport of DNA to the medial tissue layer, suggesting the potential for use in therapeutically relevant applications of balloon-mediated gene transfer.

Sustained release of BMP-2 using self-assembled layer-by-layer film-coated implants enhances bone regeneration over burst release. Biomaterials 2022; 288:121721. [PMID: 35981926 PMCID: PMC10396073 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2022.121721] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Current clinical products delivering the osteogenic growth factor bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) for bone regeneration have been plagued by safety concerns due to a high incidence of off-target effects resulting from bolus release and supraphysiological doses. Layer-by-layer (LbL) film deposition offers the opportunity to coat bone defect-relevant substrates with thin films containing proteins and other therapeutics; however, control of release kinetics is often hampered by interlayer diffusion of drugs throughout the film during assembly, which causes burst drug release. In this work, we present the design of different laponite clay diffusional barrier layer architectures in self-assembled LbL films to modulate the release kinetics of BMP-2 from the surface of a biodegradable implant. Release kinetics were tuned by incorporating laponite in different film arrangements and with varying deposition techniques to achieve release of BMP-2 over 2 days, 4 days, 14 days, and 30 days. Delivery of a low dose (0.5 μg) of BMP-2 over 2 days and 30 days using these LbL film architectures was then compared in an in vivo rat critical size calvarial defect model to determine the effect of BMP-2 release kinetics on bone regeneration. After 6 weeks, sustained release of BMP-2 over 30 days induced 3.7 times higher bone volume and 7.4 times higher bone mineral density as compared with 2-day release of BMP-2, which did not induce more bone growth than the uncoated scaffold control. These findings represent a crucial step in the understanding of how BMP-2 release kinetics influence treatment efficacy and underscore the necessity to optimize protein delivery methods in clinical formulations for bone regeneration. This work could be applied to the delivery of other therapeutic proteins for which careful tuning of the release rate is a key optimization parameter.

Abstract
Bioactive cations, including calcium, copper and magnesium, have shown the potential to become the alternative to protein growth factor-based therapeutics for bone healing. Ion substitutions are less costly, more stable, and more effective at low concentrations. Although they have been shown to be effective in providing bone grafts with more biological functions, the precise control of ion release kinetics is still a challenge. Moreover, the synergistic effect of three or more metal ions on bone regeneration has rarely been studied. In this study, vaterite-calcite CaCO3 particles were loaded with copper (Cu2+) and magnesium (Mg2+). The polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) was deposited on CaCuMg-CO3 particles via layer-by-layer technique to further improve the stability and biocompatibility of the particles and to enable controlled release of multiple metal ions. The PEM coated microcapsules were successfully combined with collagen at the outmost layer, providing a further stimulating microenvironment for bone regeneration. The in vitro release studies showed remarkably stable release of Cu2+ in 2 months without initial burst release. Mg2+ was released in relatively low concentration in the first 7 days. Cell culture studies showed that CaCuMg-PEM-Col microcapsules stimulated cell proliferation, extracellular maturation and mineralization more effectively than blank control and other microcapsules without collagen adsorption (Ca-PEM, CaCu-PEM, CaMg-PEM, CaCuMg-PEM). In addition, the CaCuMg-PEM-Col microcapsules showed positive effects on osteogenesis and angiogenesis in gene expression studies. The results indicate that such a functional and controllable delivery system of multiple bioactive ions might be a safer, simpler and more efficient alternative of protein growth factor-based therapeutics for bone regeneration. It also provides an effective method for functionalizing bone grafts for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Porous, resorbable biomaterials can serve as temporary scaffolds that support cell infiltration, tissue formation, and remodeling of nonhealing skin wounds. Synthetic biomaterials are less expensive to manufacture than biologic dressings and can achieve a broader range of physiochemical properties, but opportunities remain to tailor these materials for ideal host immune and regenerative responses. Polyesters are a well-established class of synthetic biomaterials; however, acidic degradation products released by their hydrolysis can cause poorly controlled autocatalytic degradation. Here, we systemically explored reactive oxygen species (ROS)-degradable polythioketal (PTK) urethane (UR) foams with varied hydrophilicity for skin wound healing. The most hydrophilic PTK-UR variant, with seven ethylene glycol (EG7) repeats flanking each side of a thioketal bond, exhibited the highest ROS reactivity and promoted optimal tissue infiltration, extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, and reepithelialization in porcine skin wounds. EG7 induced lower foreign body response, greater recruitment of regenerative immune cell populations, and resolution of type 1 inflammation compared to more hydrophobic PTK-UR scaffolds. Porcine wounds treated with EG7 PTK-UR foams had greater ECM production, vascularization, and resolution of proinflammatory immune cells compared to polyester UR foam-based NovoSorb Biodegradable Temporizing Matrix (BTM)-treated wounds and greater early vascular perfusion and similar wound resurfacing relative to clinical gold standard Integra Bilayer Wound Matrix (BWM). In a porcine ischemic flap excisional wound model, EG7 PTK-UR treatment led to higher wound healing scores driven by lower inflammation and higher reepithelialization compared to NovoSorb BTM. PTK-UR foams warrant further investigation as synthetic biomaterials for wound healing applications.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), acting as essential mediators in biological system, play important roles in the physiologic and pathologic processes, including cellular signal transductions and cell homeostasis interference. Aberrant expression of ROS in tissue microenvironment can be caused by the internal/external stimuli and tissue injury, which may leads to an elevated level of oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and cellular damage as well as disruption in the tissue repair process. To prevent the formation of excess ROS around the injury site, advanced biomaterials can be remodeled or instructed to release their payloads in an injury microenvironment-responsive fashion to regulate the elevated levels of the ROS, which may also help downregulate the oxidative stress and promote tissue regeneration. A multitude of scaffolds and bioactive cues have been reported to promote the regeneration of damaged tissues based on the scavenging of free radicals and reactive species that confer high protection to the cellular activity and tissue function. In this review, we outline the underlying mechanism of ROS generation in the tissue microenvironment and present a comprehensive review of ROS-scavenging biomaterials for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering applications, including soft tissues regeneration, bone and cartilage repair as well as wound healing. Additionally, we highlight the strategies for the regulation of ROS by scaffold design and processing technology. Taken together, developing ROS-based biomaterials may not only help develop advanced platforms for improving injury microenvironment but also accelerate tissue regeneration.
