J Cell Mol Med 2024; 28:e70040. [PMID: 39219020 PMCID: PMC11366680 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.70040] [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: 06/01/2024] [Revised: 08/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Bone tissue engineering addresses the limitations of autologous resources and the risk of allograft disease transmission in bone diseases. In this regard, engineered three-dimensional (3D) models emerge as biomimetic alternatives to natural tissues, replicating intracellular communication. Moreover, the unique properties of super-paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) were shown to promote bone regeneration via enhanced osteogenesis and angiogenesis in bone models. This study aimed to investigate the effects of SPION on both osteogenesis and angiogenesis and characterized a co-culture of Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and MG-63 cells as a model of bone microtissue. HUVECs: MG-63s with a ratio of 4:1 demonstrated the best results among other cell ratios, and 50 μg/mL of SPION was the optimum concentration for maximum survival, cell migration and mineralization. In addition, the data from gene expression illustrated that the expression of osteogenesis-related genes, including osteopontin, osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase, and collagen-I, as well as the expression of the angiogenesis-related marker, CD-31, and the tube formation, is significantly elevated when the 50 μg/mL concentration of SPION is applied to the microtissue samples. SPION application in a designed 3D bone microtissue model involving a co-culture of osteoblast and endothelial cells resulted in increased expression of specific markers related to angiogenesis and osteogenesis. This includes the design of a novel biomimetic model to boost blood compatibility and biocompatibility of primary materials while promoting osteogenic activity in microtissue bone models. Moreover, this can improve interaction with surrounding tissues and broaden the knowledge to promote superior-performance implants, preventing device failure.

Fabricating Composite Cell Sheets for Wound Healing: Cell Sheets Based on the Communication Between BMSCs and HFSCs Facilitate Full-Thickness Cutaneous Wound Healing. Tissue Eng Regen Med 2024; 21:421-435. [PMID: 37995084 PMCID: PMC10987453 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-023-00614-0] [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: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Insufficient angiogenesis and the lack of skin appendages are critical challenges in cutaneous wound healing. Stem cell-fabricated cell sheets have become a promising strategy, but cell sheets constructed by a single cell type are inadequate to provide a comprehensive proregenerative microenvironment for wound tissue. METHODS Based on the communication between cells, in this study, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) were cocultured to fabricate a composite cell sheet (H/M-CS) for the treatment of full-thickness skin wounds in mice. RESULTS Experiments confirmed that there is cell-cell communication between BMSCs and HFSCs, which enhances the cell proliferation and migration abilities of both cell types. Cell-cell talk also upregulates the gene expression of pro-angiogenic-related cytokines in BMSCs and pro-hair follicle-related cytokines in HFSCs, as well as causing changes in the properties of secreted extracellular matrix components. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, the composite cell sheet is more conducive for cutaneous wound healing and promoting the regeneration of blood vessels and hair follicles.

Three-dimensional bioprinting of a full-thickness functional skin model using acellular dermal matrix and gelatin methacrylamide bioink. Acta Biomater 2021; 131:248-261. [PMID: 34265473 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.07.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2021] [Revised: 06/27/2021] [Accepted: 07/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
Treatment of full-thickness skin defects still presents a significant challenge in clinical practice. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technique offers a promising approach for fabricating skin substitutes. However, it is necessary to identify bioinks that have both sufficient mechanical properties and desirable biocompatibilities. In this study, we successfully fabricated acellular dermal matrix (ADM) and gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) bioinks. The results demonstrated that ADM preserved the main extracellular matrix (ECM) components of the skin and GelMA had tunable mechanical properties. Both bioinks with shear-thinning properties were suitable for 3D bioprinting and GelMA bioink exhibited high printability. Additionally, the results revealed that 20% GelMA with sufficient mechanical properties was suitable to engineer epidermis, 1.5% ADM and 10% GelMA displayed relatively good cytocompatibilities. Here, we proposed a new 3D structure to simulate natural full-thickness skin, which included 20% GelMA with HaCaTs as an epidermal layer, 1.5% ADM with fibroblasts as the dermis, and 10% GelMA mesh with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) as the vascular network and framework. We demonstrated that this 3D bioprinting functional skin model (FSM) could not only promote cell viability and proliferation, but also support epidermis reconstruction in vitro. When transplanted in vivo, the FSM could maintain cell viability for at least 1 week. Furthermore, the FSM promoted wound healing and re-epithelization, stimulated dermal ECM secretion and angiogenesis, and improved wound healing quality. The FSM may provide viable functional skin substitutes for future clinical applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We propose a new 3D structure to simulate natural full-thickness skin, which included 20% GelMA with HaCaTs as an epidermal layer, 1.5% ADM with fibroblasts as the dermis, and 10% GelMA mesh with HUVECs as the vascular network. It could not only maintain a moist microenvironment and barrier function, but also recreate the natural skin microenvironment to promote cell viability and proliferation. This may provide viable functional skin substitutes for future clinical applications.

Abstract
MXenes with a two-dimensional (2D) structure have attracted attention as potential biomedical materials. In this study, Ti3C2 MXene particles with 2D-lamellar structures were intercalated and their potential as a biomaterial was evaluated using human mesenchymal stem cells. Intercalated MXene was characterized in terms of microstructure, phase composition, and size. Cell proliferation experiments with MXene particles confirmed that concentrations >50 μg/mL were cytotoxic, while concentrations <20 μg/mL promoted osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, MXene effectively facilitated the early and late osteogenic gene expression.

Abstract
Co-culture of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) and vascular endothelial cells (VECs) is a promising strategy for better osteogenesis and pre-vascularization in bone tissue engineering. Recent reports have shown that mechanical stretching further promotes osteogenesis in BMSC/VEC co-culture systems, but the underlying mechanism of this process remains unclear. In this study, noncontact co-cultures of rat primary BMSCs and VECs were employed to interrogate paracrine cell-to-cell communications in response to tension. Exposure of VECs to 6% tension for 48 h elicited neither ALP activity nor mRNA expression of OCN and OPN in BMSCs incubated in a shared culture medium. Instead, BMSCs subjected to tension induced robust VEGF release, and its conditioned medium enhanced the proliferation and tubular formation of VECs with a concurrent increase in BMP-2 and IGF-1 production. Conditioned medium from activated VECs in turn promoted expression of osteogenic genes in BMSCs, followed by an increase in matrix mineralization. The addition of VEGF-R inhibitor Tivozanib to these systems abrogated the tension-induced paracrine effects on VECs and subsequently impaired BMSC osteogenesis. These results clearly demonstrate that the response of BMSCs to tension potentiates paracrine osteogenic signaling from VECs; this positive feedback loop is initiated by VEGF release.

Abstract
Manipulation of dental stem cells (DSCs) using current technologies in tissue engineering unveil promising prospect in regenerative medicine. DSCs have shown to possess angiogenic and osteogenic potential in both in vivo and in vitro. Neural crest derived DSCs can successfully be isolated from various dental tissues, exploiting their intrinsic great differentiation potential. In this article, researcher team intent to review the characteristics of DSCs, with focus on their angiogenic and osteogenic differentiation lineage. Clinical data on DSCs are still lacking to prove their restorative abilities despite extensive contemporary literature, warranting research to further validate their application for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Delivery of stem cells with osteogenesis while enabling angiogenesis is important for vascularized bone tissue engineering. Here a three-dimensional (3D) co-culture system of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) was designed using porous microcarriers, and the feasibility of applying to bone tissue engineering was investigated in vitro. Highly porous spherical microcarriers made of degradable biopolymers were prepared with sizes of hundreds of micrometers. The microcarriers loaded with DPSCs were co-cultured with ECs embedded in a hydrogel of type I collagen. An optimal co-culture medium that preserves the viability of ECs while stimulating the osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs was found to be a 10:1 of osteogenic medium:endothelial medium. The co-cultured constructs of DPSCs/ECs showed significantly higher level of alkaline phosphatase activity than the mono-cultured cells. Moreover, the expressions of genes related with osteogenesis and angiogenesis were significantly up-regulated by the co-cultures with respect to the mono-cultures. Results imply the interplay between ECs and DPSCs through the designed 3D co-culture models. The microcarrier-enabled co-cultured cell system is considered to be useful as an alternative tool for future vascularized bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Regenerative approach has emerged to substitute the current extracorporeal technologies for the treatment of diseased and damaged liver tissue. This is based on the use of biomaterials that modulate the responses of hepatic cells through the unique matrix properties tuned to recapitulate regenerative functions. Cells in liver preserve their phenotype or differentiate through the interactions with extracellular matrix molecules. Therefore, the intrinsic properties of the engineered biomaterials, such as stiffness and surface topography, need to be tailored to induce appropriate cellular functions. The matrix physical stimuli can be combined with biochemical cues, such as immobilized functional groups or the delivered actions of signaling molecules. Furthermore, the external modulation of cells, through cocultures with nonparenchymal cells (e.g., endothelial cells) that can signal bioactive molecules, is another promising avenue to regenerate liver tissue. This review disseminates the recent approaches of regenerating liver tissue, with a focus on the development of biomaterials and the related culture technologies.

Abstract
Angiogenic capacity of biomaterials is a key asset to drive vascular ingrowth during tissue repair and regeneration. Here we design a unique angiogenic microcarrier based on sol-gel derived mesoporous silica. The microspheres offer a potential angiogenic stimulator, Si ion, 'intrinsically' within the chemical structure. Furthermore, the highly mesoporous nature allows the loading and release of angiogenic growth factor 'extrinsically'. The Si ion is released from the microcarriers at therapeutic ranges (over a few ppm per day), which indeed up-regulates the expression of hypoxia inducing factor 1α (HIF1α) and stabilizes it by blocking HIF-prolyl hydroxylase 2 (PHD2) in HUVECs. This in turn activates the expression of a series of proangiogenic molecules, including bFGF, VEGF, and eNOS. VEGF is incorporated effectively within the mesopores of microcarriers and is then released continuously over a couple of weeks. The Si ion and VEGF released from the microcarriers synergistically stimulate endothelial cell functions, such as cell migration, chemotactic homing, and tubular networking. Furthermore, in vivo neo-blood vessel sprouting in chicken chorioallantoic membrane model is significantly promoted by the Si/VEGF releasing microcarriers. The current study demonstrates the synergized effects of Si ion and angiogenic growth factor through a biocompatible mesoporous microsphere delivery platform, and the concept provided here may open the door to a new co-delivery system of utilizing ions with growth factors for tissue repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Research on cooperation has contributed to a better understanding of the foundations of human social behavior. Most studies, however, have not considered fundamental social parameters such as an individual’s position in a social hierarchy. As a first step, this study investigates the modulating effects of socioeconomic status (SES) on behavior and the physiological stress response. Study participants ( n = 83) played a cooperative game with computerized coplayers of four categories: similar or higher SES in combination with either high or low fairness in behavior (i.e., willingness to cooperate). All participants showed a significant increase in saliva cortisol after the game compared to a control group. Only when paired with higher SES coplayers, however, did participants show a significant subsequent decrease in cortisol concentrations. Participants’ behavior in response to a coplayer’s decisions was only affected by the degree of fairness, but not the SES, of respective coplayers. Physiologically, playing this cooperation game was a big challenge for participants as measured by salivary cortisol. Yet, the high recovery rate when playing with cooperative, higher status individuals showed the stress-protective effects of positive social interactions in the framework of social hierarchies.

Abstract
Bone plays several physiological functions and is the second most commonly transplanted tissue after blood. Since the treatment of large bone defects is still unsatisfactory, researchers have endeavoured to obtain scaffolds able to release growth and differentiation factors for mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts and endothelial cells in order to obtain faster mineralization and prompt a reliable vascularization. Nowadays, the application of osteoblastic cultures spans from cell physiology and pharmacology to cytocompatibility measurement and osteogenic potential evaluation of novel biomaterials. To overcome the simple traditional monocultures in vitro, co-cultures of osteogenic and vasculogenic precursors were introduced with very interesting results. Increasingly complex culture systems have been developed, where cells are seeded on proper scaffolds and stimulated so as to mimic the physiological conditions more accurately. These bioreactors aim at enabling bone regeneration by incorporating different cells types into bio-inspired materials within a surveilled habitat. This review is focused on the most recent developments in the organomimetic cultures of osteoblasts and vascular endothelial cells for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Vascularization remains one of the most important challenges that must be overcome for tissue engineering to be consistently implemented for reconstruction of large volume bone defects. An extensive vascular network is needed for transport of nutrients, waste and progenitor cells required for remodelling and repair. A variety of tissue engineering strategies have been investigated in an attempt to vascularize tissues, including those applying cells, soluble factor delivery strategies, novel design and optimization of bio-active materials, vascular assembly pre-implantation and surgical techniques. However, many of these strategies face substantial barriers that must be overcome prior to their ultimate translation into clinical application. In this review recent progress in engineering vascularized bone will be presented with an emphasis on clinical feasibility.

Abstract
The development of cell based advanced therapeutic medicinal products (ATMPs) for bone repair has been expected to revolutionize the health care system for the clinical treatment of bone defects. Despite this great promise, the clinical outcomes of the few cell based ATMPs that have been translated into clinical treatments have been far from impressive. In part, the clinical outcomes have been hampered because of the simplicity of the first wave of products. In response the field has set-out and amassed a plethora of complexities to alleviate the simplicity induced limitations. Many of these potential second wave products have remained "stuck" in the development pipeline. This is due to a number of reasons including the lack of a regulatory framework that has been evolving in the last years and the shortage of enabling technologies for industrial manufacturing to deal with these novel complexities. In this review, we reflect on the current ATMPs and give special attention to novel approaches that are able to provide complexity to ATMPs in a straightforward manner. Moreover, we discuss the potential tools able to produce or predict 'goldilocks' ATMPs, which are neither too simple nor too complex.
