Injectable polyamide-amine dendrimer-crosslinked meloxicam-containing poly-γ-glutamic acid hydrogel for prevention of postoperative tissue adhesion through inhibiting inflammatory responses and balancing the fibrinolytic system. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 670:486-498.

Abstract
Establishing a physical barrier between the peritoneum and the cecum is an effective method to reduce the risk of postoperative abdominal adhesions. Meloxicam (MX), a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug has also been applied to prevent postoperative adhesions. However, its poor water solubility has led to low bioavailability. Herein, we developed an injectable hydrogel as a barrier and drug carrier for simultaneous postoperative adhesion prevention and treatment. A third-generation polyamide-amine dendrimer (G3) was exploited to dynamically combine with MX to increase the solubility and the bioavailability. The formed G3@MX was further used to crosslink with poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) to prepare a hydrogel (GP@MX hydrogel) through the amide bonding. In vitro and in vivo experiments evidenced that the hydrogel had good biosafety and biodegradability. More importantly, the prepared hydrogel could control the release of MX, and the released MX is able to inhibit inflammatory responses and balance the fibrinolytic system in the injury tissues in vivo. The tunable rheological and mechanical properties (compressive moduli: from ∼ 57.31 kPa to ∼ 98.68 kPa;) and high anti-oxidant capacity (total free radical scavenging rate of ∼ 94.56 %), in conjunction with their syringeability and biocompatibility, indicate possible opportunities for the development of advanced hydrogels for postoperative tissue adhesions management.

Biomaterials 2024; 309:122615. [PMID: 38759486 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122615] [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: 01/27/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
Enhancing the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for endometrial regeneration is challenging, due to its limited mechanical properties and burst release of growth factors. Here, we proposed an injectable interpenetrating dual-network hydrogel that can locationally activate PRP within the uterine cavity, sustained release growth factors and further address the insufficient therapeutic efficacy. Locational activation of PRP is achieved using the dual-network hydrogel. The phenylboronic acid (PBA) modified methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) dispersion chelates Ca2+ by carboxy groups and polyphenol groups, and in situ crosslinked with PRP-loaded polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) dispersion by dynamic borate ester bonds thus establishing the soft hydrogel. Subsequently, in situ photo-crosslinking technology is employed to enhance the mechanical performance of hydrogels by initiating free radical polymerization of carbon-carbon double bonds to form a dense network. The PRP-hydrogel significantly promoted the endometrial cell proliferation, exhibited strong pro-angiogenic effects, and down-regulated the expression of collagen deposition genes by inhibiting the TGF-β1-SMAD2/3 pathway in vitro. In vivo experiments using a rat intrauterine adhesion (IUA) model showed that the PRP-hydrogel significantly promoted endometrial regeneration and restored uterine functionality. Furthermore, rats treated with the PRP-hydrogel displayed an increase in the number of embryos, litter size, and birth rate, which was similar to normal rats. Overall, this injectable interpenetrating dual-network hydrogel, capable of locational activation of PRP, suggests a new therapeutic approach for endometrial repair.

Acta Biomater 2024:S1742-7061(24)00357-X. [PMID: 38964528 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.06.043] [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: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/27/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
The integration of barrier materials with pharmacological therapy is a promising strategy to treat intrauterine adhesions (IUAs). However, most of these materials are surgically implanted in a fixed shape and incongruence with the natural mechanical properties of the uterus, causing poor adaptability and significant discomfort to the patients. Herein, an injectable, biodegradable, and mechanically adaptive hydrogel loaded with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is created by L‑serine and allyl functionalized chitosan (ACS) to achieve efficient, comfortable, and minimally invasive treatment of IUAs. L‑serine induces fast gelation and mechanical reinforcement of the hydrogel, while ACS introduces, imparting a good injectability and complaint yet strong feature to the hydrogel. This design enables the hydrogel to adapt to the complex geometry and match the mechanical properties of the uterine. Moreover, the hydrogel exhibits proper degradability, sustained growth factors (GFs) of PRP release ability, and good biocompatibility. Consequently, the hydrogel shows promising therapeutic efficacy by reducing collagen fiber deposition and facilitating endometrium cell proliferation, thereby restoring the fertility function of the uterus in an IUAs model of rats. Accordingly, the combination of L‑serine and ACS-induced hydrogel with such advantages holds great potential for treating IUAs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This research introduces a breakthrough in the treatment of intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) with an injectable, biodegradable and mechanically adaptive hydrogel using L‑serine and allyl functionalized chitosan (ACS). Unlike traditional surgical treatments, this hydrogel uniquely conforms to the uterus's geometry and mechanical properties, offering a minimally invasive, comfortable, and more effective solution. The hydrogel is designed to release growth factors from platelet-rich plasma (PRP) sustainably, promoting tissue regeneration by enhancing collagen fiber deposition and endometrium cell proliferation. Demonstrated efficacy in a rat model of IUAs indicates its great potential to significantly improve fertility restoration treatments. This advancement represents a significant leap in reproductive medicine, promising to transform IUAs treatment with its innovative approach to achieving efficient, comfortable, and minimally invasive therapy.

Ion cocktail therapy for myocardial infarction by synergistic regulation of both structural and electrical remodeling. EXPLORATION (BEIJING, CHINA) 2024; 4:20230067.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Few drugs hold the ability to depress cardiac electrical and structural remodeling simultaneously after MI, which is crucial for the treatment of MI. The aim of this study is to investigate an effective therapy to improve both electrical and structural remodeling of the heart caused by MI. Here, an "ion cocktail therapy" is proposed to simultaneously reverse cardiac structural and electrical remodeling post-MI in rats and minipigs by applying a unique combination of silicate, strontium (Sr) and copper (Cu) ions due to their specific regulatory effects on the behavior of the key cells involved in MI including angiogenesis of endothelial cells, M2 polarization of macrophages and apoptosis of cardiomyocyte. The results demonstrate that ion cocktail treatment attenuates structural remodeling post-MI by ameliorating infarct size, promoting angiogenesis in both peri-infarct and infarct areas. Meantime, to some extent, ion cocktail treatment reverses the deteriorative electrical remodeling by reducing the incidence rate of early/delayed afterdepolarizations and minimizing the heterogeneity of cardiac electrophysiology. This ion cocktail therapy reveals a new strategy to effectively treat MI with great clinical translation potential due to the high effectiveness and safety of the ion cocktail combination.

Abstract
The combination of pharmacological and physical barrier therapy is a highly promising strategy for treating intrauterine adhesions (IUAs), but there lacks a suitable scaffold that integrates good injectability, proper mechanical stability and degradability, excellent biocompatibility, and non-toxic, non-rejection therapeutic agents. To address this, a novel injectable, degradable hydrogel composed of poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA), sodium alginate (SA), and l-serine, and loaded with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) (referred to as PSL-PRP) is developed for treating IUAs. l-Serine induces rapid gelation within 1 min and enhances the mechanical properties of the hydrogel, while degradable SA provides the hydrogel with strength, toughness, and appropriate degradation capabilities. As a result, the hydrogel exhibits an excellent scaffold for sustained release of growth factors in PRP and serves as an effective physical barrier. In vivo testing using a rat model of IUAs demonstrates that in situ injection of the PSL-PRP hydrogel significantly reduces fibrosis and promotes endometrial regeneration, ultimately leading to fertility restoration. The combined advantages make the PSL-PRP hydrogel very promising in IUAs therapy and in preventing adhesions in other internal tissue wounds.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis may result in both cartilage and subchondral bone damage. It is a significant challenge to simultaneously repair cartilage due to the distinct biological properties between cartilage and bone. Here, strontium copper tetrasilicate/β-tricalcium phosphate (Wesselsite[SrCuSi4O10]/Ca3(PO4)2, WES-TCP) composite scaffolds with different WES contents (1, 2, and 4 wt %) were fabricated via a three-dimensional (3D) printing method for the osteochondral regeneration. The physicochemical properties and biological activities of the scaffolds were systematically investigated. 2WES-TCP (WES-TCP with 2 wt % WES) composite scaffolds not only improved the compressive strength but also enhanced the proliferation of both rabbit bone mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs) and chondrocytes, as well as their differentiation. The in vivo study further confirmed that WES-TCP scaffolds significantly promoted the regeneration of both bone and cartilage tissue in rabbit osteochondral defects compared with pure TCP scaffolds owing to the sustained and controlled release of bioactive ions (Si, Cu, and Sr) from bioactive scaffolds. These results show that 3D-printed WES-TCP scaffolds with bilineage bioactivities take full advantage of the bifunctional properties of bioceramics to reconstruct the complex osteochondral interface, which broadens the approach to engineering therapeutic platforms for biomedical applications.

Abstract
In the pursuit of therapeutic strategies for myocardial infarction (MI), a pivotal objective lies in the concurrent restoration of blood perfusion and reduction of cardiomyocyte apoptosis. However, achieving these dual goals simultaneously presents a considerable challenge. In this study, a Zn2 SiO4 bioceramic capable of concurrently sustaining the release of bioactive SiO3 2- and Zn2+ ions, which exhibit a synergistic impact on endothelial cell angiogenesis promotion, cardiomyocyte apoptosis inhibition, and myocardial mitochondrial protection against oxygen-free radical (reactive oxygen species) induced injury is developed. Furthermore, in vivo outcomes from a murine MI model demonstrate that either systemic administration via tail vein injection of Zn2 SiO4 extract or local application through intramyocardial injection of a Zn2 SiO4 composite hydrogel promotes cardiac function and reduces cardiac fibrosis, thus aiding myocardial repair. This research is the first to elucidate the advantageous effects of dual bioactive ions in myocardial protection and may offer a novel therapeutic avenue for ischemic heart disease based on meticulously engineered bioceramics.

Tissue Eng Regen Med 2023; 20:671-681. [PMID: 36920676 PMCID: PMC10352221 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-023-00523-2] [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: 11/20/2022] [Revised: 01/16/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is one of the main activators of heart failure. Currently, no drug can completely reverse or inhibit the development of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. To this end, we proposed a silicate ion therapy based on extract derived from calcium silicate (CS) bioceramics for the treatment of angiotensin II (Ang II) induced cardiac hypertrophy. METHODS In this study, the Ang II induced cardiac hypertrophy mouse model was established, and the silicate ion extract was injected to mice intravenously. The cardiac function was evaluated by using a high-resolution Vevo 3100 small animal ultrasound imaging system. Wheat germ Agglutinin, Fluo4-AM staining and immunofluorescent staining was conducted to assess the cardiac hypertrophy, intracellular calcium and angiogenesis of heart tissue, respectively. RESULTS The in vitro results showed that silicate ions could inhibit the cell size of cardiomyocytes, reduce cardiac hypertrophic gene expression, including atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and β-myosin heavy chain (β-MHC), decrease the content of intracellular calcium induced by Ang II. In vivo experiments in mice confirmed that intravenous injection of silicate ions could remarkably inhibit the cardiac hypertrophy and promote the formation of capillaries, further alleviating Ang II-induced cardiac function disorder. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated that the released silicate ions from CS possessed potential value as a novel therapeutic strategy of pathological cardiac hypertrophy, which provided a new insight for clinical trials.

Abstract
The increased number of mastectomies, combined with rising patient expectations for cosmetic and psychosocial outcomes, has necessitated the use of adipose tissue restoration techniques. However, the therapeutic effect of current clinical strategies is not satisfying due to the high demand of personalized customization and the timely vascularization in the process of adipose regeneration. Here, a composite hydrogel scaffold was prepared by three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, applying gelatin methacrylate anhydride (GelMA) as printing ink and calcium silicate (CS) bioceramic as an active ingredient for breast adipose tissue regeneration. The in vitro experiments showed that the composite hydrogel scaffolds could not only be customized with controllable architectures, but also significantly stimulated both 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and human umbilical vein endothelial cells in multiple cell behaviors, including cell adhesion, proliferation, migration and differentiation. Moreover, the composite scaffold promoted vascularized adipose tissue restoration under the skin of nude mice in vivo. These findings suggest that 3D-printed GelMA/CS composite scaffolds might be a good candidate for adipose tissue engineering.

Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15081893. [PMID: 37112039 PMCID: PMC10141106 DOI: 10.3390/polym15081893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) with intelligent deformability have shown great potential in the field of aerospace, and the research on their adaptability to space environments has far-reaching significance. Chemically cross-linked cyanate-based SMPs (SMCR) with excellent resistance to vacuum thermal cycling were obtained by adding polyethylene glycol (PEG) with linear polymer chains to the cyanate cross-linked network. The low reactivity of PEG overcame the shortcomings of high brittleness and poor deformability while endowing cyanate resin with excellent shape memory properties. The SMCR with a glass transition temperature of 205.8 °C exhibited good stability after vacuum thermal cycling. The SMCR maintained a stable morphology and chemical composition after repeated high-low temperature cycle treatments. The SMCR matrix was purified by vacuum thermal cycling, which resulted in an increase in its initial thermal decomposition temperature by 10-17 °C. The continuous vacuum high and low temperature relaxation of the vacuum thermal cycling increased the cross-linking degree of the SMCR, which improved the mechanical properties and thermodynamic properties of SMCR: the tensile strength of SMCR was increased by about 14.5%, the average elastic modulus was greater than 1.83 GPa, and the glass transition temperature increased by 5-10 °C. Furthermore, the shape memory properties of SMCR after vacuum thermal cycling treatment were well maintained due to the stable triazine ring formed by the cross-linking of cyanate resin. This revealed that our developed SMCR had good resistance to vacuum thermal cycling and thus may be a good candidate for aerospace engineering.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles have shown good potential in disease treatments including ischemic injury such as myocardial infarction. However, the efficient production of highly active extracellular vesicles is one of the critical limitations for their clinical applications. Here, we demonstrate a biomaterial-based approach to prepare high amounts of extracellular vesicles with high bioactivity from endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) by stimulation with silicate ions derived from bioactive silicate ceramics. We further show that hydrogel microspheres containing engineered extracellular vesicles are highly effective in the treatment of myocardial infarction in male mice by significantly enhancing angiogenesis. This therapeutic effect is attributed to significantly enhanced revascularization by the high content of miR-126a-3p and angiogenic factors such as VEGF and SDF-1, CXCR4 and eNOS in engineered extracellular vesicles, which not only activate endothelial cells but also recruit EPCs from the circulatory system.

Abstract
In clinical practice, it has become urgent to develop multifunctional wound dressings that can combat infection and prompt wound healing simultaneously. In this study, we proposed a polydopamine/alginate/nanoselenium composite hydrogel (Alg-PDA-Se) for the treatment of infected wounds. In particular, polydopamine endows the composite hydrogel with controllable near-infrared photothermal properties, while low-dosage selenium nanoparticles (Se NPs) offer excellent anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory, pro-proliferative, pro-migration, and pro-angiogenic performances, which are verified by multiple cells, including macrophages, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. More interestingly, the combination of mild temperature with low-dosage Se NPs produces a synergistic effect on combating both Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) and promoting the healing of bacteria-infected wounds in vivo. We anticipate that the designed composite hydrogel might be a potential candidate for anti-infection bioactive dressing.

Abstract
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) have attracted wide attention over the past few decades due to their fantastic applications in modern life. Nevertheless, excellent self-healing properties, recyclability, solid-state plasticity, and reversible shape-switching ability are necessary but can rarely be satisfied in one material. Herein, we report multifunctional SMPs by constructing a dynamic boronic ester bond cross-linking network using sustainable Eucommia ulmoides gum as a raw material. Thanks to the crystallization and wide melting temperature range, these kinds of SMPs have thermal-triggered one-way shape memory performance and show two-way shape memory properties, whether under constant stress or stress-free conditions. Owing to the dynamic nature of the boronic ester bond, it exhibits good self-healing properties (near 100% at 80 °C), shape reconfigurability, and chemical recyclability. In addition, by incorporating multiwalled carbon nanotubes, the formed composite is responsive to 808 nm near-infrared light. Its applications are further exploited, including photoresponsive actuators, vascular stents, and light-driven switches. This paper provides a simple way for fabricating multifunctional SMPs, and the as-prepared materials have potential applications in diverse fields, such as biomedicine, intelligent sensing, and soft robotics.

Abstract
In clinical practice, the utilization of antibiotics is still the main approach for the treatment of wound contamination, which lacks the ability to accelerate wound healing and arises the global concern of antimicrobial resistance. Plenty of alternative methods have been explored in recent years due to the fast development of material science. Here, CuO/SiO2 nanowires (CuSi NWs) with good near-infrared (NIR) photothermal conversion ability are synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal method. The as-prepared CuSi NWs possess excellent antibacterial ability against both Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), which could be enhanced by the assistance of mild photothermal therapy (PTT). Moreover, CuSi NWs at suitable concentrations can promote proliferation, migration, and angiogenic gene expression of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), exhibiting a remarkable pro-vascularization ability. The in vivo mouse infect model further proves that the CuSi NWs might be a good candidate for the treatment of infected wounds as the high antibacterial efficiency and accelerated wound healing is obtained.

Abstract
Phototherapy, which generally refers to photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT), has received significant attention over the past few years since it is non-invasive, has effective selectivity, and has few side effects. As a result, it has become a promising alternative to traditional clinical treatments. At present, two-dimensional materials (2D materials) have proven to be at the forefront of the development of advanced nanomaterials due to their ultrathin structures and fascinating optical properties. As a result, much work has been put into developing phototherapy platforms based on 2D materials. This review summarizes the current developments in 2D materials beyond graphene for phototherapy, focusing on the novel approaches of PTT and PDT. New methods are being developed to go above and beyond conventional treatment to fully use the potential of 2D materials. Additionally, the efficacy of cutting-edge phototherapy is assessed, and the existing difficulties and future prospects of 2D materials for phototherapy are covered.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2022; 10:1007535. [PMID: 36185424 PMCID: PMC9523139 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.1007535] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2022] [Accepted: 08/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Biomaterial-based bone grafts are emerged as an effective strategy for the treatment of large bone defects, especially for the scaffolds with enhanced osteogenic and angiogenic bioactivities. However, most studies focused on the direct interactions between scaffolds and bone-related cells such as osteoblasts and endothelial cells, and ignored the effects of material-triggered immunomodulation and the subsequent immune-regulated bone regeneration process. In this study, we developed a silicate bioceramic (Sr2ZnSi2O7, SZS) scaffold with well-defined pore structures using a three-dimensional (3D) printing technique. The prepared scaffolds were biodegradable, and the released bioactive ions were beneficial for immunomodulation, which stimulated macrophages to release more pro-healing cytokines and less pro-inflammatory cytokines. The obtained scaffold/macrophage conditioned medium further promoted the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of a murine preosteoblast cell line (MC3T3-E1), as well as the angiogenic activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Moreover, the in vivo experiments of critical-sized calvarial defects in rats revealed that the 3D printed SZS scaffolds could facilitate more vascularized bone regeneration than the 3D printed β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP, a typical clinically used bioceramic) scaffolds, suggesting that the 3D-printed SZS scaffolds hold the potential as implantable biomaterials with favorable osteoimmunomodulation for bone repair.

Abstract
Most traditional wound dressings passively offer a protective barrier for the wounds, which lacks the initiative in stimulating tissue regeneration. In addition, cutaneous wound healing is usually accompanied by various complicated conditions, including bacterial infection, skin cancer, and damaged skin appendages, bringing further challenges for wound management in clinic. Therefore, an ideal wound dressing should not only actively stimulate wound healing but also hold multi-functions for solving problems associated with different specific wound conditions. Recent studies have demonstrated that silicate bioceramics and bioglasses are one type of promising materials for the development of wound dressings, as they can actively accelerate wound healing by regulating endothelial cells, dermal fibroblasts, macrophages, and epidermal cells. In particular, silicate-based biomaterials can be further functionalized by specific structural design or doping with functional components, which endow materials with enhanced bioactivities or expanded physicochemical properties such as photothermal, photodynamic, chemodynamic, or imaging properties. The functionalized materials can be used to address wound healing with different demands including but not limited to antibacterial, anticancer, skin appendages regeneration, and wound monitoring. In this review, we summarized the current research on the development of silicate-based multi-functional wound dressings and prospected the development of advanced wound dressings in the future.

Abstract
The layered silicates Egyptian Blue (CaCuSi4O10, EB), Han Blue (BaCuSi4O10, HB) and Han Purple (BaCuSi2O6, HP) are known as historic pigments, but they also possess novel optoelectronic properties with great potential for fundamental research and technology. They fluoresce in the near-infrared (NIR) range and can be exfoliated into two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials (i.e. nanosheets, NS) which retain the photophysical properties of the bulk materials. These and other characteristics fuel the growing excitement of the scientific community about these materials. EB-, HB- and HP-NS have been used in various applications ranging from smart inks, energy storage, bioimaging, to phototherapy and more. In this review article, we report the fundamental properties of these low-dimensional silicate nanomaterials, discuss applications and outline perspectives for the future.
