Abstract
Addressing significant medical challenges arising from tissue damage and organ failure, the field of tissue engineering has evolved to provide revolutionary approaches for regenerating functional tissues and organs. This involves employing various techniques, including the development and application of novel nanomaterials. Among them, chiral nanomaterials comprising non-superimposable nanostructures with their mirror images have recently emerged as innovative biomaterial candidates to guide tissue regeneration due to their unique characteristics. Chiral nanomaterials including chiral fibre supramolecular hydrogels, polymer-based chiral materials, self-assembling peptides, chiral-patterned surfaces, and the recently developed intrinsically chiroptical nanoparticles have demonstrated remarkable ability to regulate biological processes through routes such as enantioselective catalysis and enhanced antibacterial activity. Despite several recent reviews on chiral nanomaterials, limited attention has been given to the specific potential of these materials in facilitating tissue regeneration processes. Thus, this timely review aims to fill this gap by exploring the fundamental characteristics of chiral nanomaterials, including their chiroptical activities and analytical techniques. Also, the recent advancements in incorporating these materials in tissue engineering applications are highlighted. The review concludes by critically discussing the outlook of utilizing chiral nanomaterials in guiding future strategies for tissue engineering design.

[PMID: 38162280 PMCID: PMC10755784 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2023.100896] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 11/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024] Open
Abstract
Mineralized collagen (MC) is the fundamental unit of natural bone tissue and can induce bone regeneration. Unmodified MC has poor mechanical properties and a single component, making it unable to cope with complex physiological environment. In this study, we introduced sodium alginate (SA) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) into the MC material to construct functionalized mineralized collagen (FMC) with good mechanical strength and the ability to continuously release growth factors. The FMC is filled into the pores of 3D printed titanium alloy scaffold to form a new organic-inorganic bioactive interface. With the continuous degradation of FMC, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and vascular endothelial cells (VECs) in the surrounding environment are recruited to the surface of the scaffold to promote bone and vascular regeneration. After implanting the scaffold into the distal femoral defect of rabbits, Micro CT, histological, push-out, as well as immunohistochemical analysis showed that the composite interface can significantly promote osseointegration. These findings provide a new strategy for the development and application of mineralized collagen materials.

Abstract
Skin wound is always accompanied with nerve damage, leading to significant sensory function loss. Currently, the functional matrix material based stem cell transplantation and in situ nerve regeneration are thought to be effective strategies, of which, how to recruit stem cells, retard senescence, and promote neural differentiation has been obstacle to be overcome. However, the therapeutic efficiency of the reported systems has yet to be improved and side effect reduced. Herein, a conduit matrix with three-dimensional ordered porous structures, regular porosity, appropriate mechanical strength, and conductive features was prepared by orienting the freezing technique, which was further filled with neural-directing exosomes to form a neural-stimulating matrix for providing hybrid physical-biochemical stimulations. This neural-stimulating matrix was then compacted with methacrylate gelatin (GelMA) hydrogel thin coat that loaded with chemokines and anti-senescence drugs, forming a multi-functional artificial niche (termed as GCr-CSL) that promotes MSCs recruitment, anti-senescence, and neural differentiation. GCr-CSL was shown to rapidly enhances in situ nerve regeneration in skin wound therapy, and with great potential in promoting sensory function recovery. This study demonstrates proof-of-concept in building a biomimetic niche to organize endogenous MSCs recruitment, differentiation, and functionalization for fast neurological and sensory recovery.

Abstract
The inefficiency of existing animal models to precisely predict human pharmacological effects is the root reason for drug development failure. Microphysiological system/organ-on-a-chip technology (organ-on-a-chip platform) is a microfluidic device cultured with human living cells under specific organ shear stress which can faithfully replicate human organ-body level pathophysiology. This emerging organ-on-chip platform can be a remarkable alternative for animal models with a broad range of purposes in drug testing and precision medicine. Here, we review the parameters employed in using organ on chip platform as a plot mimic diseases, genetic disorders, drug toxicity effects in different organs, biomarker identification, and drug discoveries. Additionally, we address the current challenges of the organ-on-chip platform that should be overcome to be accepted by drug regulatory agencies and pharmaceutical industries. Moreover, we highlight the future direction of the organ-on-chip platform parameters for enhancing and accelerating drug discoveries and personalized medicine.

Abstract
Silk fibroin has become a prominent material in tissue engineering (TE) over the last 20 years with almost 10,000 published works spanning in all the TE applications, from skeleton to neuronal regeneration. Fibroin is an extremely versatile biopolymer that, due to its ease of processing, has enabled the development of an entire plethora of materials whose properties and architectures can be tailored to suit target applications. Although the research and development of fibroin TE materials and devices is mature, apart from sutures, only a few medical products made of fibroin are used in the clinical routines. <40 clinical trials of Bombyx mori silk-related products have been reported by the FDA and few of them resulted in a commercialized device. In this review, after explaining the structure and properties of silk fibroin, we provide an overview of both fibroin constructs existing in the literature and fibroin devices used in clinic. Through the comparison of these two categories, we identified the burning issues faced by fibroin products during their translation to the market. Two main aspects will be considered. The first is the standardization of production processes, which leads both to the standardization of the characteristics of the issued device and the correct assessment of its failure. The second is the FDA regulations, which allow new devices to be marketed through the 510(k) clearance by demonstrating their equivalence to a commercialized medical product. The history of some fibroin medical devices will be taken as a case study. Finally, we will outline a roadmap outlining what actions we believe are needed to bring fibroin products to the market.

3D Bioprinting of Multi-Material Decellularized Liver Matrix Hydrogel at Physiological Temperatures. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12070521. [PMID: 35884324 PMCID: PMC9313433 DOI: 10.3390/bios12070521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Revised: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 07/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Bioprinting is an acclaimed technique that allows the scaling of 3D architectures in an organized pattern but suffers from a scarcity of appropriate bioinks. Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) from xenogeneic species has garnered support as a biomaterial to promote tissue-specific regeneration and repair. The prospect of developing dECM-based 3D artificial tissue is impeded by its inherent low mechanical properties. In recent years, 3D bioprinting of dECM-based bioinks modified with additional scaffolds has advanced the development of load-bearing constructs. However, previous attempts using dECM were limited to low-temperature bioprinting, which is not favorable for a longer print duration with cells. Here, we report the development of a multi-material decellularized liver matrix (dLM) bioink reinforced with gelatin and polyethylene glycol to improve rheology, extrudability, and mechanical stability. This shear-thinning bioink facilitated extrusion-based bioprinting at 37 °C with HepG2 cells into a 3D grid structure with a further enhancement for long-term applications by enzymatic crosslinking with mushroom tyrosinase. The heavily crosslinked structure showed a 16-fold increase in viscosity (2.73 Pa s−1) and a 32-fold increase in storage modulus from the non-crosslinked dLM while retaining high cell viability (85–93%) and liver-specific functions. Our results show that the cytocompatible crosslinking of dLM bioink at physiological temperatures has promising applications for extended 3D-printing procedures.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a network of connective fibers that supports cells living in their surroundings. Native ECM, generated by the secretory products of each tissue's resident cells, has a unique architecture with different protein composition depending on the tissue. Therefore, it is very difficult to artificially design in vivo architecture in tissue engineering. In this study, we fabricated a hybrid ECM scaffold from the basic structure of fibroblast-derived cellular ECMs by adding major ECM components of fibronectin (FN) and collagen (COL I) externally. It was confirmed that while maintaining the basic structure of the native ECM, major protein components can be regulated. Then, decellularization was performed to prepare hybrid ECM scaffolds with various protein compositions and we demonstrated that a liver-mimicking fibronectin (FN)-rich hybrid ECM promoted successful settling of H4IIE rat hepatoma cells. We believe that our method holds promise for the fabrication of scaffolds that provide a tailored cellular microenvironment for specific organs and serve as novel pathways for the replacement or regeneration of specific organ tissues.
