[PMID: 38920693 PMCID: PMC11202130 DOI: 10.3390/cells13121065] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Revised: 06/14/2024] [Accepted: 06/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Bone tissue injuries within oral and dental contexts often present considerable challenges because traditional treatments may not be able to fully restore lost or damaged bone tissue. Novel approaches involving stem cells and targeted 3D scaffolds have been investigated in the search for workable solutions. The use of scaffolds in stem cell-assisted bone regeneration is a crucial component of tissue engineering techniques designed to overcome the drawbacks of traditional bone grafts. This study provides a detailed review of scaffold applications for bone regeneration with stem cells in dentistry. This review focuses on scaffolds and stem cells while covering a broad range of studies explaining bone regeneration in dentistry through the presentation of studies conducted in this field. The role of different stem cells in regenerative medicine is covered in great detail in the reviewed literature. These studies have addressed a wide range of subjects, including the effects of platelet concentrates during dental surgery or specific combinations, such as human dental pulp stem cells with scaffolds for animal model bone regeneration, to promote bone regeneration in animal models. Noting developments, research works consider methods to improve vascularization and explore the use of 3D-printed scaffolds, secretome applications, mesenchymal stem cells, and biomaterials for oral bone tissue regeneration. This thorough assessment outlines possible developments within these crucial regenerative dentistry cycles and provides insights and suggestions for additional study. Furthermore, alternative creative methods for regenerating bone tissue include biophysical stimuli, mechanical stimulation, magnetic field therapy, laser therapy, nutritional supplements and diet, gene therapy, and biomimetic materials. These innovative approaches offer promising avenues for future research and development in the field of bone tissue regeneration in dentistry.

Abstract
Polymeric microspheres (PMs) have attracted great attention in the field of biomedicine in the last several decades due to their small particle size, special functionalities shown on the surface and high surface-to-volume ratio. However, how to fabricate PMs which can meet the clinical needs and transform laboratory achievements to industrial scale-up still remains a challenge. Therefore, advanced fabrication technologies are pursued. In this review, we summarize the technologies used to fabricate PMs, including emulsion-based methods, microfluidics, spray drying, coacervation, supercritical fluid and superhydrophobic surface-mediated method and their advantages and disadvantages. We also review the different structures, properties and functions of the PMs and their applications in the fields of drug delivery, cell encapsulation and expansion, scaffolds in tissue engineering, transcatheter arterial embolization and artificial cells. Moreover, we discuss existing challenges and future perspectives for advancing fabrication technologies and biomedical applications of PMs.

Abstract
Bacterial infection represents a prevalent challenge during the bone repair process, often resulting in implant failure. However, the extensive use of antibiotics has limited local antibacterial effects at the infection site and is prone to side effects. In order to address the issue of bacterial infection during the transplantation of bone implants, four types of bone scaffold implants with long-term antimicrobial functionality have been constructed, including direct contact antimicrobial scaffold, dissolution-penetration antimicrobial scaffold, photocatalytic antimicrobial scaffold, and multimodal synergistic antimicrobial scaffold. The direct contact antimicrobial scaffold involves the physical penetration or disruption of bacterial cell membranes by the scaffold surface or hindrance of bacterial adhesion through surface charge, microstructure, and other factors. The dissolution-penetration antimicrobial scaffold releases antimicrobial substances from the scaffold's interior through degradation and other means to achieve local antimicrobial effects. The photocatalytic antimicrobial scaffold utilizes the absorption of light to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) with enhanced chemical reactivity for antimicrobial activity. ROS can cause damage to bacterial cell membranes, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), proteins, and other components. The multimodal synergistic antimicrobial scaffold involves the combined use of multiple antimicrobial methods to achieve synergistic effects and effectively overcome the limitations of individual antimicrobial approaches. Additionally, the biocompatibility issues of the antimicrobial bone scaffold are also discussed, including in vitro cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation, as well as in vivo bone repair and vascularization. Finally, the challenges and prospects of antimicrobial bone implants are summarized. The development of antimicrobial bone implants can provide effective solutions to bacterial infection issues in bone defect repair in the foreseeable future.

Efficient drug supply in stem cell cytosol via pore-forming saponin nanoparticles promotes in vivo osteogenesis and bone regeneration. Biomaterials 2023; 302:122342. [PMID: 37804721 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122342] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2023] [Revised: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/09/2023]
Abstract
Directional differentiation of stem cells is a key step in stem cell therapy. In this study, we developed saponin-based nanoparticles (Ad-SNPs) containing dexamethasone (Dex) and alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) to promote osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and bone regeneration. The Ad-SNPs can achieve rapid cellular uptake through a pore-forming effect without cytotoxic cationic charges. They also provide extended retention in cell cytosol due to their uptake route. These properties are advantageous in efficiently supplying drugs to the hMSCs. The combination of Dex and ALA facilitated mitochondrial fusion and prevented reactive oxygen species-induced DNA damage. It also helped to preserve mitochondrial dynamics, and the efficient supply of it provided by the Ad-SNPs induced differentiation of hMSCs into osteoblasts. The Ad-SNPs showed outstanding performance in osteoblast differentiation, maturation, and mineralization in 3D culture compared with NPs without saponin and with free drugs. When Ad-SNP-treated hMSCs were tested in a rat femoral bone defect model, they showed the fastest regeneration of bones and complete repair in the shortest period among all groups. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first application of pore-forming saponin-based NPs with rapid cellular uptake and extended retention to stem cell therapy, and we demonstrated their promising potential in bone regeneration and efficient delivery of Dex and ALA.

Abstract
Improving the osteogenic activity of BMP-2 in vivo has significant clinical application value. In this research, we use a clinical gelatin sponge scaffold loaded with BMP-2 and dexamethasone (Dex) to evaluate the osteogenic activity of dual drugs via ectopic osteogenesis in vivo. We also investigate the mechanism of osteogenesis induced by BMP-2 and Dex with C2C12, a multipotent muscle-derived progenitor cell. The results show that the gelatin scaffold with Dex and BMP-2 can significantly accelerate osteogenesis in vivo. It is indicated that compared with the BMP-2 or Dex alone, 100 nM of Dex can dramatically enhance the BMP-2-induced alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP), ALP mRNA expression and mineralization. Further studies show that 100 nM of Dex can maintain the secondary structure of BMP-2 and facilitate recognition of BMP-2 with its receptors on the surface of C2C12 cells. We also find that in C2C12, Dex has no obvious effect on the BMP-2-induced Smad1/5/8 protein expression and the STAT3-dependent pathway, but Runx2-dependent pathway is involved in the Dex-stimulated osteoblast differentiation of BMP-2 both in vitro and in vivo. Based on these results, a potential mechanism model about the synergistic osteoinductive effect of Dex and BMP-2 in C2C12 cells via Runx2 activation is proposed. This may provide a theoretical basis for the pre-clinical application of Dex and BMP-2 for bone regeneration.

Abstract
This study developed a three-layer consecutive gene delivery system (T-CGDS) for timely gene delivery into human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The timing of transcription factor expression is important to effectively induce bone differentiation. Therefore, a three-layered nanocomposite was fabricated using differently sized gold nanoparticles to promote bone regeneration and osteogenic differentiation. The core layer comprised 80 nm gold nanoparticles coupled with ATF4 pDNA. Following coating with heparin-conjugated Pluronic F-127 (HP-F127), 50 nm gold nanoparticles coupled with SP7 pDNA were added to fabricate a bi-layer system. After further coating with HP-F127, 20 nm gold nanoparticles combined with RUNX2 pDNA were added. Consequently, a T-CGDS measuring 350-450 nm was fabricated. Genes were released for more than 8 days, while the size of the T-CGDS decreased over time. When the T-CGDS was applied to hMSCs, the gene in the outer layer (RUNX2) was expressed first, followed by those in the middle (SP7) and core (ATF4) layers. The T-CGDS effectively induced bone differentiation and regeneration in vitro and in vivo. Timely delivery of the ATF4 gene to stem cells via the T-CGDS can greatly assist osteogenic differentiation involved in bone regeneration.
