Abstract
The cryopreservation and transplantation of ovarian tissue underscore its paramount importance in safeguarding reproductive capacity and ameliorating reproductive disorders. However, challenges persist in ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation (OTC-T), including the risk of tissue damage and dysfunction. Consequently, there has been a compelling exploration into the realm of nanoregulators to refine and enhance these procedures. This review embarks on a meticulous examination of the intricate anatomical structure of the ovary and its microenvironment, thereby establishing a robust groundwork for the development of nanomodulators. It systematically categorizes nanoregulators and delves deeply into their functions and mechanisms, meticulously tailored for optimizing ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation. Furthermore, the review imparts valuable insights into the practical applications and obstacles encountered in clinical settings associated with OTC-T. Moreover, the review advocates for the utilization of microbially derived nanomodulators as a potent therapeutic intervention in ovarian tissue cryopreservation. The progression of these approaches holds the promise of seamlessly integrating nanoregulators into OTC-T practices, thereby heralding a new era of expansive applications and auspicious prospects in this pivotal domain.

Abstract
Bioactive glass has been employed in several medical applications since its inception in 1969. The compositions of these materials have been investigated extensively with emphasis on glass network formers, therapeutic transition metals, and glass network modifiers. Through these experiments, several commercial and experimental compositions have been developed with varying chemical durability, induced physiological responses, and hydroxyapatite forming abilities. In many of these studies, the concentrations of each alkali and alkaline earth element have been altered to monitor changes in structure and biological response. This review aims to discuss the impact of each alkali and alkaline earth element on the structure, processing, and biological effects of bioactive glass. We explore critical questions regarding these elements from both a glass science and biological perspective. Should elements with little biological impact be included? Are alkali free bioactive glasses more promising for greater biological responses? Does this mixed alkali effect show increased degradation rates and should it be employed for optimized dissolution? Each of these questions along with others are evaluated comprehensively and discussed in the final section where guidance for compositional design is provided.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell derived exosomes (MSC-Exos) demonstrate beneficial effects on wound healing via anti-inflammatory and angiogenic properties. Chitosan (CS) exhibits excellent biocompatibility and accelerates cellular migration, adhesion, and proliferation. The ions released from bioactive glass (BG) and titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles exhibit sustained angiogenic and antibacterial potency. In this study, CMCS-CEBT hydrogel was synthesized from exosomes encapsulated carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), chitosan nanoparticles (CS-NPs), BG, and TiO2 nanoparticles for a preliminary evaluation of its impacts on the treatment of full-thickness skin defects, diabetic wounds, and burn skin injury due to burns. In vitro analysis indicated that the hydrogel exhibits excellent cell compatibility, stimulates endothelial cell adhesion and proliferation, and presents anti-inflammatory, angiogenic, and antibacterial activities. In vivo, the composite hydrogel dressing accelerated a wound healing acceleration effect, stimulated angiogenesis, and increased collagen deposition and the expression of anti-inflammatory factors. This innovative composite hydrogel dressing as a potential clinical therapy, utilizing bioactive materials, holds promise as a potential clinical therapy that aims to facilitate the regeneration of acute and chronically damaged skin tissue.

Abstract
Complicated fractures have always been challenging in orthopaedics. Designing a multifunctional biomaterial that can contribute to the treatment of fractures using a simple operation remains challenging. Here, we developed a trinity hydrogel system consisting of hydrogel prepared from phenylboronic acid modified gelatin and oxidized-dextran, lithium and cobalt co-doped mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs), and irisin. This hydrogel material exhibits considerable injectability, fat-to-shape, and self-healing characteristics. In addition, compared to hydrogel prepared from gelatin and oxidized-dextran, the hydrogel material presented a noticeable enhancement in compression stress and adhesion strength towards porcine bone fragments, which enables it more effectively splice bone fragments during surgery. Based on the various interactions between irisin and the hydrogel network, the system exhibited a clear sustained release of irisin. Based on the results of in vitro cell tests, the hydrogel material showed good cytocompatibility. And it also considerably enhanced the in vitro pro-osteogenic and pro-angiogenic capacities of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In vivo experimental results indicated that this hydrogel considerably improved the repair of cranial defects in rats. The current study provides a feasible strategy for the treatment of bone fractures and stimulation of fracture healing.

Abstract
Purpose Due to the multilayered structure of the skin tissue, the architecture of its engineered scaffolds needs to be improved. In the present study, 45s5 bioglass nanoparticles were selected to induce fibroblast proliferation and their protein secretion, although cobalt ions were added to increase their potency. Methods A 3-layer scaffold was designed as polyurethane (PU) - polycaprolactone (PCL)/ collagen/nanoparticles-PCL/collagen. The scaffolds examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), tensile, surface hydrophilicity and weight loss. Biological tests were performed to assess cell survival, adhesion and the pattern of gene expression. Results The mechanical assay showed the highest young modulus for the scaffold with the doped nanoparticles and the water contact angle of this scaffold after chemical crosslinking of collagen was reduced to 52.34±7.7°. In both assessments, the values were statistically compared to other groups. The weight loss of the corresponding scaffold was the highest value of 82.35±4.3 % due to the alkaline effect of metal ions and indicated significant relations in contrast to the scaffold with non-doped particles and bare one (P value<0.05). Moreover, better cell expansion, greater cell confluence and a lower degree of toxicity were confirmed. The up-regulation of TGF β1 and VEGF genes introduced this scaffold as a better model for the fibroblasts commitment to a new skin tissue among bare and nondoped scaffold (P value<0.05). Conclusion The 3-layered scaffold which is loaded with cobalt ions-bonded bioglass nanoparticles, is a better substrate for the culture of the fibroblasts.

Osteogenic-angiogenic coupled response of cobalt-containing mesoporous bioactive glasses in vivo. Acta Biomater 2024; 176:445-457. [PMID: 38190928 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.01.003] [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: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/10/2024]
Abstract
The incorporation of cobalt ions into the composition of bioactive glasses has emerged as a strategy of interest for bone regeneration purposes. In the present work, we have designed a set of bioactive mesoporous glasses SiO2-CaO-P2O5-CoO (Co-MBGs) with different amounts of cobalt. The physicochemical changes introduced by the Co2+ ion, the in vitro effects of Co-MBGs on preosteoblasts and endothelial cells and their in vivo behaviour using them as bone grafts in a sheep model were studied. The results show that Co2+ ions neither destroy mesoporous ordering nor inhibit in vitro bioactive behaviour, exerting a dual role as network former and modifier for CoO concentrations above 3 % mol. On the other hand, the activity of Co-MBGs on MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts and HUVEC vascular endothelial cells is dependent on the concentration of CoO present in the glass. For low Co-MBGs concentrations (1mg/ml) cell viability is not affected, while the expression of osteogenic (ALP, RUNX2 and OC) and angiogenic (VEGF) genes is stimulated. For Co-MBGs concentration of 5 mg/ml, cell viability decreases as a function of the CoO content. In vivo studies show that the incorporation of Co2+ ions to the MBGs improves the bone regeneration activity of these materials, despite the deleterious effect that this ion has on bone-forming cells for any of the Co-MBG compositions studied. This contradictory effect is explained by the marked increase in angiogenesis that takes place inside the bone defect, leading to an angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling that compensates for the partial decrease in osteoblast cells. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The development of new bone grafts implies to address the need for osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling that allows bone regeneration with viable tissue in the long term. In this sense the incorporation of cobalt ions into the composition of bioactive glasses has emerged as a strategy of great interest in this field. Due to the potential cytotoxic effect of cobalt ions, there is an important controversy regarding the suitability of their incorporation in bone grafts. In this work, we address this controversy after the implantation of cobalt-doped mesoporous bioactive glasses in a sheep model. The incorporation of cobalt ions in bioactive glasses improves the bone regeneration ability of these bone grafts, due to enhancement of the angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling.

Abstract
The bone defect caused by fracture, bone tumor, infection, and other causes is not only a problematic point in clinical treatment but also one of the hot issues in current research. The development of bone tissue engineering provides a new way to repair bone defects. Many animal experimental and rising clinical application studies have shown their excellent application prospects. The construction of rapid vascularization of tissue-engineered bone is the main bottleneck and critical factor in repairing bone defects. The rapid establishment of vascular networks early after biomaterial implantation can provide sufficient nutrients and transport metabolites. If the slow formation of the local vascular network results in a lack of blood supply, the osteogenesis process will be delayed or even unable to form new bone. The researchers modified the scaffold material by changing the physical and chemical properties of the scaffold material, loading the growth factor sustained release system, and combining it with trace elements so that it can promote early angiogenesis in the process of induced bone regeneration, which is beneficial to the whole process of bone regeneration. This article reviews the local vascular microenvironment in the process of bone defect repair and the current methods of improving scaffold materials and promoting vascularization.

Abstract
Healing of severe fractures and bone defects involves many complex biological processes, including angiogenesis and osteogenesis, presenting significant clinical challenges. Biomaterials used for bone tissue engineering often possess multiple functions to meet these challenges, including proangiogenic, proosteogenic, and antibacterial properties. We fabricated lithium and cobalt co-doped mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (Li-Co-MBGNs) using a modified sol-gel method. Physicochemical analysis revealed that the nanoparticles had high specific surface areas (>600 m2/g) and a mesoporous structure suitable for hydroxyapatite (HA) formation and sustained release of therapeutic ions. In vitro experiments with Li-Co-MBGNs showed that these promoted angiogenic properties in HUVECs and pro-osteogenesis abilities in BMSCs by releasing Co2+ and Li+ ions. We observed their antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, indicating their potential applications in bone tissue engineering. Overall, our findings indicate the feasibility of its application in bone tissue engineering.

Double hits with bioactive nanozyme based on cobalt-doped nanoglass for acute and diabetic wound therapies through anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic functions. Bioact Mater 2024; 31:298-311. [PMID: 37637079 PMCID: PMC10458956 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.08.014] [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: 05/27/2023] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Regeneration of pathological wounds, such as diabetic ulcers, poses a significant challenge in clinical settings, despite the widespread use of drugs. To overcome clinical side effects and complications, drug-free therapeutics need to be developed to promote angiogenesis while overcoming inflammation to restore regenerative events. This study presents a novel bioactive nanozyme based on cobalt-doped nanoglass (namely, CoNZ), which exhibits high enzymatic/catalytic activity while releasing therapeutic ions. Cobalt oxide "Co3O4" tiny crystallites produced in situ through a chemical reaction with H2O2 within CoNZ nanoparticles play a crucial role in scavenging ROS. Results showed that CoNZ-treatment to full-thickness skin wounds in mice significantly accelerated the healing process, promoting neovascularization, matrix deposition, and epithelial lining while reducing pro-inflammatory signs. Notably, CoNZ was highly effective in treating pathological wounds (streptozotocin-induced diabetic wounds). Rapid scavenging of ROS by CoNZ and down-regulation of pro-inflammatory markers while up-regulating tissue healing signs with proliferative cells and activated angiogenic factors contributed to the observed healing events. In vitro experiments involving CoNZ-cultures with macrophages and endothelial cells exposed to high glucose and ROS-generating conditions further confirmed the effectiveness of CoNZ. CoNZ-promoted angiogenesis was attributed to the release of cobalt ions, as evidenced by the comparable effects of CoNZ-extracted ionic medium in enhancing endothelial migration and tubule formation via activated HIF-1α. Finally, we compared the in vivo efficacy of CoNZ with the clinically-available drug deferoxamine. Results demonstrated that CoNZ was as effective as the drug in closing the diabetic wound, indicating the potential of CoNZ as a novel drug-free therapeutic approach.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BGs) are widely used in orthopedic and dental applications for their ability to stimulate endogenous bone formation and regeneration. BG applications more recently broadened to include soft tissue conditions, based on their ability to stimulate angiogenesis, soft tissue regeneration, and wound healing. Sol-gel synthesis has helped facilitate this expansion, allowing formulators to tailor the morphological characteristics of the BG matrix. The effectiveness of BGs in skin wound healing is viewed as a gateway for their use as both a therapeutic and drug delivery platform in other soft tissue applications, notably gastrointestinal (GI) applications, which form the focus of this review. Recent changes in international guidelines for GI conditions shifted clinical objectives from symptom management to mucosal wound healing. The additional scrutiny of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) safety, increasing burden of disease, and financial costs associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease (PUD), and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) open new clinical possibilities for BG. This narrative literature review intersects materials engineering, formulation science, and clinical practice, setting it apart from prior literature. Broadly, current evidence for BG applications in GI conditions is sparse and under-developed, which this review directly addresses. It explores and synthesizes evidence that supports the potential use of sol-gel-derived BG for the efficacious treatment of soft tissue applications, with specific reference to GI conditions. An overview with comparative analysis of current BG synthesis techniques and associated challenges is presented, and influences of composition, biologically active ions, and morphological characteristics in soft tissue applications are explored. To contextualize this, sol-gel-derived BGs are proposed as a dual, tailorable therapeutic and drug delivery platform for upper and lower GI conditions. Future directions for this largely untapped area of translational research are also proposed, based on extant literature.

Abstract
In recent years, bone regeneration has emerged as a remarkable field that offers promising guidance for treating bone-related diseases, such as bone defects, bone infections, and osteosarcoma. Among various bone regeneration approaches, the metal ion-based strategy has surfaced as a prospective candidate approach owing to the extensive regulatory role of metal ions in bone metabolism and the diversity of corresponding delivery strategies. Various metal ions can promote bone regeneration through three primary strategies: balancing the effects of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, regulating the immune microenvironment, and promoting bone angiogenesis. In the meantime, the complex molecular mechanisms behind these strategies are being consistently explored. Moreover, the accelerated development of biomaterials broadens the prospect of metal ions applied to bone regeneration. This review highlights the potential of metal ions for bone regeneration and their underlying mechanisms. We propose that future investigations focus on refining the clinical utilization of metal ions using both mechanistic inquiry and materials engineering to bolster the clinical effectiveness of metal ion-based approaches for bone regeneration.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to offer a narrative review of the literature regarding the influence of transition metals on angiogenesis, excluding lanthanides and actinides. To our knowledge there are not any reviews up to date offering such a summary, which inclined us to write this paper. Angiogenesis describes the process of blood vessel formation, which is an essential requirement for human growth and development. When the complex interplay between pro- and antiangiogenic mediators falls out of balance, angiogenesis can quickly become harmful. As it is so fundamental, both its inhibition and enhancement take part in various diseases, making it a target for therapeutic treatments. Current methods come with limitations, therefore, novel agents are constantly being researched, with metal agents offering promising results. Various transition metals have already been investigated in-depth, with studies indicating both pro- and antiangiogenic properties, respectively. The transition metals are being applied in various formulations, such as nanoparticles, complexes, or scaffold materials. Albeit the increasing attention this field is receiving, there remain many unanswered questions, mostly regarding the molecular mechanisms behind the observed effects. Notably, approximately half of all the transition metals have not yet been investigated regarding potential angiogenic effects. Considering the promising results which have already been established, it should be of great interest to begin investigating the remaining elements whilst also further analyzing the established effects.

Abstract
Angiogenesis-the formation of new blood vessels from existing blood vessels-has drawn significant attention in medical research. New techniques have been developed to control proangiogenic factors to obtain desired effects. Two important research areas are 1) understanding cellular mechanisms and signaling pathways involved in angiogenesis and 2) discovering new biomaterials and nanomaterials with proangiogenic effects. This paper reviews recent developments in controlling angiogenesis in the context of regenerative medicine and wound healing. We focus on novel proangiogenic materials that will advance the field of regenerative medicine. Specifically, we mainly focus on metal nanomaterials. We also discuss novel technologies developed to carry these proangiogenic inorganic molecules efficiently to target sites. We offer a comprehensive overview by combining existing knowledge regarding metal nanomaterials with novel developments that are still being refined to identify new nanomaterials.

Abstract
Improving angiogenesis is the key to the success of most regenerative medicine approaches. However, how and to which extent this may be performed is still a challenge. In this regard, cobalt (Co)-doped bioactive glasses show promise being able to combine the traditional bioactivity of these materials (especially bone-bonding and osteo-stimulatory properties) with the pro-angiogenic effect associated with the release of cobalt. Although the use and local delivery of Co2+ ions into the body have raised some concerns about the possible toxic effects on living cells and tissues, important biological improvements have been highlighted both in vitro and in vivo. This review aims at providing a comprehensive overview of Co-releasing glasses, which find biomedical applications as various products, including micro- and nanoparticles, composites in combination with biocompatible polymers, fibers and porous scaffolds. Therapeutic applications in the field of bone repair, wound healing and cancer treatment are discussed in the light of existing experimental evidence along with the open issues ahead.

Abstract
Introduction and Methods: Chronic wounds are a major healthcare problem, but their healing may be improved by developing biomaterials which can stimulate angiogenesis, e.g. by activating the Hypoxia Inducible Factor (HIF) pathway. Here, novel glass fibres were produced by laser spinning. The hypothesis was that silicate glass fibres that deliver cobalt ions will activate the HIF pathway and promote the expression of angiogenic genes. The glass composition was designed to biodegrade and release ions, but not form a hydroxyapatite layer in body fluid.Results and Discussion: Dissolution studies demonstrated that hydroxyapatite did not form. When keratinocyte cells were exposed to conditioned media from the cobalt-containing glass fibres, significantly higher amounts of HIF-1α and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) were measured compared to when the cells were exposed to media with equivalent amounts of cobalt chloride. This was attributed to a synergistic effect of the combination of cobalt and other therapeutic ions released from the glass. The effect was also much greater than the sum of HIF-1α and VEGF expression when the cells were cultured with cobalt ions and with dissolution products from the Co-free glass, and was proven to not be due to a rise in pH. The ability of the glass fibres to activate the HIF-1 pathway and promote VEGF expression shows the potential for their use in chronic wound dressings.

Abstract
As the first barrier of the human body, the skin has been of great concern for its wound healing and regeneration. The healing of large, refractory wounds is difficult to be repaired by cell proliferation at the wound edges and usually requires manual intervention for treatment. Therefore, therapeutic tools such as stem cells, biomaterials, and cytokines have been applied to the treatment of skin wounds. Skin microenvironment modulation is a key technology to promote wound repair and skin regeneration. In recent years, a series of novel bioactive materials that modulate the microenvironment and cell behavior have been developed, showing the ability to efficiently facilitate wound repair and skin attachment regeneration. Meanwhile, our lab found that the fascial layer has an indispensable role in wound healing and repair, and this review summarizes the research progress of related bioactive materials and their role in wound healing.

Abstract
Diabetic mellitus is one of the leading causes of chronic wounds and remains a challenging issue to be resolved. Herein, a hydrogel with conformal tissue adhesivity, skin-like conductivity, robust mechanical characteristics, as well as active antibacterial function is developed. In this hydrogel, silver nanoparticles decorated polypyrrole nanotubes (AgPPy) and cobalt ions (Co2+ ) are introduced into an in situ polymerized poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and branched poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) network (PPCA hydrogel). The PPCA hydrogel provides active antibacterial function through synergic effects from protonated PEI and AgPPy nanotubes, with a tissue-like mechanical property (≈16.8 ± 4.5 kPa) and skin-like electrical conductivity (≈0.048 S m-1 ). The tensile and shear adhesive strength (≈15.88 and ≈12.76 kPa, respectively) of the PPCA hydrogel is about two- to threefold better than that of fibrin glue. In vitro studies show the PPCA hydrogel is highly effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In vivo results demonstrate that the PPCA hydrogel promotes diabetic wounds with accelerated healing, with notable inflammatory reduction and prominent angiogenesis regeneration. These results suggest the PPCA hydrogel provide a promising approach to promote diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
The wounds arising out of underlying hyperglycemic conditions such as diabetic foot ulcers demand a multifunctional tissue regeneration approach owing to several deficiencies in the healing mechanisms. Herein, four different types of electrospun microfibers by combining Rohu fish skin-derived collagen (Fcol) with a bioactive glass (BAG)/ion-doped bioactive glass, namely, Fcol/BAG, Fcol/CuBAG, Fcol/CoBAG, and Fcol/CuCoBAG was developed to accelerate wound healing through stimulation of key events such as angiogenesis and ECM re-construction under diabetic conditions. SEM analysis shows the porous and microfibrous architecture, while the EDX mapping provides evidence of the incorporation of dopants inside various inorganic-organic composite mats. The viscoelastic properties of the microfibrous mats as measured by a nano-DMA test show a higher damping factor non-uniform tan-delta value. The maximum ultimate tensile strength and toughness are recorded for fish collagen with copper doped bioactive glass microfibers while the least values are demonstrated by microfibers with cobalt dopant. In vitro results demonstrate excellent cell-cell and cell-material interactions when human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were cultured over the microfibers for 48 h. When these mats were applied over full-thickness diabetic wounds in the rabbit model, early wound healing is attained with Fcol/CuBAG, Fcol/CoBAG, and Fcol/CuCoBAG microfibers. Notably, these microfibers-treated wounds demonstrate a significantly (p < 0.01) higher density of blood vessels by CD-31 immunostaining than control, Duoderm, and Fcol/BAG treated wounds. Mature collagen deposition and excellent ECM remodeling are also evident in wounds treated with fish collagen/ion-doped bioactive glass microfibers suggesting their positive role in diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
Utilizing bioactive molecules from organic sources in combination with inorganic materials for enhanced tissue regeneration has been a focus of recent scientific advancements. Some recent studies showed the potential of some specialized bioactive glass for healing of soft tissues; the role of Rohu (Labeo rohita) skin-derived collagen, a biopolymer in tissue regeneration and cutaneous healing, is yet to be established. So, we have fabricated four different types of electrospun mats as wound dressing materials/dermal grafts by combining locally sourced fish (Rohu) skin-derived collagen with novel composition of bioactive glass (Fcol/BAG) without and with dopants (3% and 5% Cu and Co, respectively and their binary) aimed at achieving an accelerated wound healing. FTIR and EDX mapping indicated successful integration of collagen and ion-doped bioactive glass in electrospun mats. Microfibers' architectural features and composition provided a cytocompatible and nontoxic environment conducive to adhesion, spreading, and proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts in vitro; in addition, they were hemocompatible with rabbit red blood cells. Better cutaneous wound healing in rabbits was achieved by treating with Fcol/CoBAG and Fcol/CuCoBAG microfibers with respect to improved wound closure, well-formed continuous epidermis, higher wound maturity, and regulated deposition of extracellular matrix components; mature collagen and elastin. Notably, a significantly (p < 0.01) higher density of blood vessels/positive CD 31 staining was observed in fish collagen/ion-doped bioactive glass microfibrous mat treated wounds suggesting efficient neo-vascularization during early stages of the healing process particularly attributable to copper and cobalt ions in the doped bioactive glass. Enhanced vascularizing ability of these engineered dermal composite grafts/wound dressings along with efficient remodeling of cutaneous structural components (ECM) could collectively be ascribed to bioactive properties of bioactive glass and stimulatory roles of copper, cobalt ions, and fish collagen. Our study demonstrates that a fish collagen/Cu and Co-doped bioactive glass microfibrous mat could potentially be used as a low-cost dressing material/dermal graft for augmented cutaneous wound healing.
