Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the histological parameters and bone mechanical properties around implants with low primary stability (PS) in grafted bone substitutes within an oversized osteotomy. MATERIALS AND METHODS An oversized osteotomy penetrating the double cortical bone layers was made on both femora of 24 New Zealand white rabbits. Bilaterally in the femur of all animals, 48 implants were installed, subdivided into four groups, corresponding to four prepared tissue-engineering bone complexes (TEBCs), which were placed between the implant surface and native bone wall: A: tricalcium phosphate β (TCP-β); B: autologous adipose derived-stem cells with TCP-β (ASCs/TCP-β); C: ASCs transfected with the enhanced-GFP gene with TCP-β (EGFP-ASCs/TCP-β); D: ASCs transfected with the BMP-2 gene with TCP-β (BMP2-ASCs/TCP-β). Trichrome fluorescent labeling was conducted. Animals were sacrificed after eight weeks. The trichromatic fluorescent labeling (%TFL), area of new bone (%NB), residual material (%RM), bone-implant contact (%BIC), and the removal torque force (RTF, N/cm) were assessed. RESULTS ASCs were successfully isolated from adipose tissue, and the primary ASCs were induced into osteogenic, chondrogenic, and adipogenic differentiation. The BMP-2 overexpression of ASCs sustained for ten days and greatly enhanced the expression of osteopontin (OPN). At eight weeks post-implantation, increased %NB and RTF were found in all groups. The most significant value of %TFL, %BIC and lowest %RM was detected in group D. CONCLUSION The low PS implants osseointegrate with considerable new bone in grafted TEBCs within an oversized osteotomy. Applying BMP-2 overexpressing ASCs-based TEBC promoted earlier osseointegration and more solid bone mechanical properties on low PS implants. Bone graft offers a wedging effect for the implant with low PS at placement and promotes osteogenesis on their surface in the healing period.

Abstract
The management of critical-sized bone defects caused by nonunion, trauma, infection, malignancy, pseudoarthrosis, and osteolysis poses complex reconstruction challenges for orthopedic surgeons. Current treatment modalities, including autograft, allograft, and distraction osteogenesis, are insufficient for the diverse range of pathology encountered in clinical practice, with significant complications associated with each. Therefore, there is significant interest in the development of delivery vehicles for growth factors to aid in bone repair in these settings. This article reviews innovative strategies for the management of critical-sized bone loss, including novel scaffolds designed for controlled release of rhBMP, bioengineered extracellular vesicles for delivery of intracellular signaling molecules, and advances in regional gene therapy for sustained signaling strategies. Improvement in the delivery of growth factors to areas of significant bone loss has the potential to revolutionize current treatment for this complex clinical challenge.

Hydrogel microspheres for spatiotemporally controlled delivery of RNA and silencing gene expression within scaffold-free tissue engineered constructs. Acta Biomater 2021; 124:315-326. [PMID: 33465507 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.01.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2020] [Revised: 01/08/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Delivery systems for controlled release of RNA interference (RNAi) molecules, including small interfering (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA), have the potential to direct stem cell differentiation for regenerative musculoskeletal applications. To date, localized RNA delivery platforms in this area have focused predominantly on bulk scaffold-based approaches, which can interfere with cell-cell interactions important for recapitulating some native musculoskeletal developmental and healing processes in tissue regeneration strategies. In contrast, scaffold-free, high density human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) aggregates may provide an avenue for creating a more biomimetic microenvironment. Here, photocrosslinkable dextran microspheres (MS) encapsulating siRNA-micelles were prepared via an aqueous emulsion method and incorporated within hMSC aggregates for localized and sustained delivery of bioactive siRNA. siRNA-micelles released from MS in a sustained fashion over the course of 28 days, and the released siRNA retained its ability to transfect cells for gene silencing. Incorporation of fluorescently labeled siRNA (siGLO)-laden MS within hMSC aggregates exhibited tunable siGLO delivery and uptake by stem cells. Incorporation of MS loaded with siRNA targeting green fluorescent protein (siGFP) within GFP-hMSC aggregates provided sustained presentation of siGFP within the constructs and prolonged GFP silencing for up to 15 days. This platform system enables sustained gene silencing within stem cell aggregates and thus shows great potential in tissue regeneration applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This work presents a new strategy to deliver RNA-nanocomplexes from photocrosslinked dextran microspheres for tunable presentation of bioactive RNA. These microspheres were embedded within scaffold-free, human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) aggregates for sustained gene silencing within three-dimensional cell constructs while maintaining cell viability. Unlike exogenous delivery of RNA within culture medium that suffers from diffusion limitations and potential need for repeated transfections, this strategy provides local and sustained RNA presentation from the microspheres to cells in the constructs. This system has the potential to inhibit translation of hMSC differentiation antagonists and drive hMSC differentiation toward desired specific lineages, and is an important step in the engineering of high-density stem cell systems with incorporated instructive genetic cues for application in tissue regeneration.

Abstract
RNA interference (RNAi) is an efficient post-transcriptional gene modulation strategy mediated by small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs). Since its discovery, RNAi has been utilized extensively to diagnose and treat diseases at both the cellular and molecular levels. However, the application of RNAi therapies in bone regeneration has not progressed to clinical trials. One of the major challenges for RNAi therapies is the lack of efficient and safe delivery vehicles that can actualize sustained release of RNA molecules at the target bone defect site and in surrounding cells. One promising approach to achieve these requirements is encapsulating RNAi molecules into hydrogels for delivery, which enables the nucleic acids to be delivered as RNA conjugates or within nanoparticles. Herein, we reviewed recent investigations into RNAi therapies for bone regeneration where RNA delivery was performed by hydrogels.

Abstract
Common scaffold surfaces such as titanium can have side effects; for example, infections, cytotoxicity, impaired osseointegration, or low regeneration rates for bone tissue. These effects lead to poor implant integration or even implant loss. Therefore, bioactive implants are promising instruments in tissue regeneration. Osteoinductive elements-such as growth factors and anti-infectives-support wound healing and bone growth and thereby enable faster osseointegration, even in elderly patients. In this study, titanium surfaces were coated with a poly-(d,l-lactide) (PDLLA) layer containing different concentrations of copolymer-protected gene vectors (COPROGs) to locally provide bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) or activated anti-infective agents, such as chlorhexidine gluconate, triclosan, and metronidazole, to prevent peri-implantitis. The coated titanium implants were then loaded with osteoblasts, NIH 3T3 fibroblasts, and human mesenchymal stem cells in 96-well plates. When shielded by COPROGs as a protective layer and resuspended in PDLLA, BMP-2-encoding pDNA at relatively low doses (5.63 µg/implant) induced the local expression of BMP-2. A linear dose dependence, which is common for recombinant growth factors, was not found, probably due to the retention property of the PDLLA surface. PDLLA, in general, successfully retains additional elements, such as osteoconductive growth factors (BMP-2) and anti-infective agents, which was demonstrated using metronidazole, and thus prevents the systemic application of excessive doses. These bioactive implant surfaces that provide the local release of therapeutic gene vectors or anti-infective agents allow the controlled stimulation of the implant and scaffold osseointegration. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Bone healing after traumatic injuries or pathological diseases remains an important worldwide problem. In search of safer and more effective approaches to bone regeneration and repair, RNA-based therapeutic agents, specifically microRNAs (miRNAs) and short interfering RNA (siRNA), are beginning to be actively explored. In this review, we summarize current attempts to employ miRNAs and siRNAs in preclinical models of bone repair. We provide a summary of current limitations when attempting to utilize bioactive nucleic acids for therapeutic purposes and position the unique aspects of RNA reagents for clinical bone repair. Delivery strategies for RNA reagents are emphasized and nonviral carriers (biomaterial-based) employed to deliver such reagents are reviewed. Critical features of biomaterial carriers and various delivery technologies centered around nanoparticulate systems are highlighted. We conclude with the authors' perspectives on the future of the field, outlining main critical issues important to address as RNA reagents are explored for clinical applications.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), commonly known as brittle bone disease, is a genetic disease characterized by extreme bone fragility and consequent skeletal deformities. This connective tissue disorder is caused by mutations in the quality and quantity of the collagen that in turn affect the overall mechanical integrity of the bone, increasing its vulnerability to fracture. Animal models of the disease have played a critical role in the understanding of the pathology and causes of OI and in the investigation of a broad range of clinical therapies for the disease. Currently, at least 20 animal models have been officially recognized to represent the phenotype and biochemistry of the 17 different types of OI in humans. These include mice, dogs, and fish. Here, we describe each of the animal models and the type of OI they represent, and present their application in clinical research for treatments of OI, such as drug therapies (ie, bisphosphonates and sclerostin) and mechanical (ie, vibrational) loading. In the future, different dosages and lengths of treatment need to be further investigated on different animal models of OI using potentially promising treatments, such as cellular and chaperone therapies. A combination of therapies may also offer a viable treatment regime to improve bone quality and reduce fragility in animals before being introduced into clinical trials for OI patients.

Abstract
Scaffold-mediated gene delivery holds great promise for tissue regeneration. However, previous attempts to induce bone regeneration using scaffold-mediated non-viral gene delivery rarely resulted in satisfactory healing. We report a novel platform with sustained release of minicircle DNA (MC) from PLGA scaffolds to accelerate bone repair. MC was encapsulated inside PLGA scaffolds using supercritical CO2 , which showed prolonged release of MC. Skull-derived osteoblasts transfected with BMP-2 MC in vitro result in higher osteocalcin gene expression and mineralized bone formation. When implanted in a critical-size mouse calvarial defect, scaffolds containing luciferase MC lead to robust in situ protein production up to at least 60 days. Scaffold-mediated BMP-2 MC delivery leads to substantially accelerated bone repair as early as two weeks, which continues to progress over 12 weeks. This platform represents an efficient, long-term nonviral gene delivery system, and may be applicable for enhancing repair of a broad range of tissues types. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The osseointegration of bone implants, implant failure, and the bridging of critical-size bone defects are frequent clinical challenges. Deficiencies in endogenous bone healing can be resolved through the local administration of suitable recombinant growth factors (GFs). In preclinical models, gene-therapy-supported bone healing has proven promising for overcoming certain limitations of GFs. We report the dose-dependent bridging of critical-size mandibular bone defects (CSDs) in a rat model using a non-viral BMP-2-encoding copolymer-protected gene vector (pBMP-2) embedded in poly(d, l-lactide) (PDLLA) coatings on titanium discs that were used to cover drill holes in the mandibles of 53 male Sprague Dawley rats. After sacrificing, the mandibles were subjected to micro-computed tomography (µCT), micro-radiography, histology, and fluorescence analyses to evaluate bone regeneration. pBMP-2 in PDLLA-coated titanium implants promoted partial bridging of bone defects within 14 days and complete defect healing within 112 days when the DNA dose per implant did not exceed 2.5 µg. No bridging was observed in untreated control CSDs. Thus, the delivery of plasmid DNA coding for BMP-2 appears to be a potent method for controlled new-bone formation with an inverse dose dependency. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
Age-related bone loss is in large part the consequence of senescence mechanisms that impact bone cell number and function. In recent years, progress has been made in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying bone cell senescence that contributes to the alteration of skeletal integrity during aging. These mechanisms can be classified as intrinsic senescence processes, alterations in endogenous anabolic factors, and changes in local support. Intrinsic senescence mechanisms cause cellular dysfunctions that are not tissue specific and include telomere shortening, accumulation of oxidative damage, impaired DNA repair, and altered epigenetic mechanisms regulating gene transcription. Aging mechanisms that are more relevant to the bone microenvironment include alterations in the expression and signaling of local growth factors and altered intercellular communications. This review provides an integrated overview of the current concepts and interacting mechanisms underlying bone cell senescence during aging and how they could be targeted to reduce the negative impact of senescence in the aging skeleton.
