Abstract
Osteochondral defects affect articular cartilage, calcified cartilage, and subchondral bone. The main problem that they cause is a different behavior of cell tissue in the osteochondral and bone part. Articular cartilage is composed mainly of collagen II, glycosaminoglycan (GAG), and water, and has a low healing ability due to a lack of vascularization. However, bone tissue is composed of collagen I, proteoglycans, and inorganic composites such as hydroxyapatite. Due to the discrepancy between the characters of these two parts, it is difficult to find materials that will meet all the structural and other requirements for effective regeneration. When designing a scaffold for an osteochondral defect, a variety of materials are available, e.g., polymers (synthetic and natural), inorganic particles, and extracellular matrix (ECM) components. All of them require the accurate characterization of the prepared materials and a number of in vitro and in vivo tests before they are applied to patients. Taken in concert, the final material needs to mimic the structural, morphological, chemical, and cellular demands of the native tissue. In this review, we present an overview of the structure and composition of the osteochondral part, especially synthetic materials with additives appropriate for healing osteochondral defects. Finally, we summarize in vitro and in vivo methods suitable for evaluating materials for restoring osteochondral defects.

Abstract
Electroconductive scaffolds based on polyaniline (PANi)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) were fabricated and surface-functionalized by carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) as efficient scaffolds for nerve tissue regeneration. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and water contact angle measurement approved the successful fabrication of CMC-functionalized PANi/PAN-based scaffolds. Human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADMSCs) were cultured on the scaffolds for 10 d in the presence or absence of β-carotene (βC, 20 µM) as a natural neural differentiation agent. The MTT and SEM results confirmed the attachment and proliferation of hADMSCs on the scaffolds. The expression of MAP2 at the mRNA and protein levels showed the synergic neurogenic induction effect of CMC-functionalization and βC for hADMSCs on the scaffolds. The CMC-functionalized nanofibrous PANi/PAN-based scaffolds are potential candidates for nerve tissue engineering.

Abstract
Carbon-based nanomaterials (CBNs) are a category of nanomaterials with various systems based on combinations of sp2 and sp3 hybridized carbon bonds, morphologies, and functional groups. CBNs can exhibit distinguished properties such as high mechanical strength, chemical stability, high electrical conductivity, and biocompatibility. These desirable physicochemical properties have triggered their uses in many fields, including biomedical applications. In this review, we specifically focus on applying CBNs as scaffolds in tissue engineering, a therapeutic approach whereby CBNs can act for the regeneration or replacement of damaged tissue. Here, an overview of the structures and properties of different CBNs will first be provided. We will then discuss state-of-the-art advancements of CBNs and hydrogels as scaffolds for regenerating various types of human tissues. Finally, a perspective of future potentials and challenges in this field will be presented. Since this is a very rapidly growing field, we expect that this review will promote interdisciplinary efforts in developing effective tissue regeneration scaffolds for clinical applications.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the osteogenic and antimicrobial effect of bioactive glass S53P4 incorporated into β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds in vitro and the bone neoformation in vivo. β-TCP and β-TCP/S53P4 scaffolds were prepared by the gel casting method. Samples were morphologically and physically characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). In vitro tests were performed using MG63 cells. American Type Culture Collection reference strains were used to determine the scaffold's antimicrobial potential. Defects were created in the tibia of New Zealand rabbits and filled with experimental scaffolds. The incorporation of S53P4 bioglass promotes significant changes in the crystalline phases formed and in the morphology of the surface of the scaffolds. The β-TCP/S53P4 scaffolds did not demonstrate an in vitro cytotoxic effect, presented similar alkaline phosphatase activity, and induced a significantly higher protein amount when compared to β-TCP. The expression of Itg β1 in the β-TCP scaffold was higher than in the β-TCP/S53P4, and there was higher expression of Col-1 in the β-TCP/S53P4 group. Higher bone formation and antimicrobial activity were observed in the β-TCP/S53P4 group. The results confirm the osteogenic capacity of β-TCP ceramics and suggest that, after bioactive glass S53P4 incorporation, it can prevent microbial infections, demonstrating to be an excellent biomaterial for application in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Electrical stimulation (ES) has been frequently used in different biomedical applications both in vitro and in vivo. Numerous studies have demonstrated positive effects of ES on cellular functions, including metabolism, proliferation, and differentiation. The application of ES to cartilage tissue for increasing extracellular matrix formation is of interest, as cartilage is not able to restore its lesions owing to its avascular nature and lack of cells. Various ES approaches have been used to stimulate chondrogenic differentiation in chondrocytes and stem cells; however, there is a huge gap in systematizing ES protocols used for chondrogenic differentiation of cells. This review focuses on the application of ES for chondrocyte and mesenchymal stem cell chondrogenesis for cartilage tissue regeneration. The effects of different types of ES on cellular functions and chondrogenic differentiation are reviewed, systematically providing ES protocols and their advantageous effects. Moreover, cartilage 3D modeling using cells in scaffolds/hydrogels under ES are observed, and recommendations on reporting about the use of ES in different studies are provided to ensure adequate consolidation of knowledge in the area of ES. This review brings novel insights into the further application of ES in in vitro studies, which are promising for further cartilage repair techniques.

Abstract
The hybridization between polymers and carbon materials is one of the most recent and crucial study areas which abstracted more concern from scientists in the past few years. Polymers could be classified into two classes according to the source materials synthetic and natural. Synthetic polymeric materials have been applied over a floppy zone of industrial fields including the field of biomedicine. Carbon nanomaterials including (fullerene, carbon nanotubes, and graphene) classified as one of the most significant sources of hybrid materials. Nanocarbons are improving significantly mechanical properties of polymers in nanocomposites in addition to physical and chemical properties of the new materials. In all varieties of proposed bio-nanocomposites, a considerable improvement in the microbiological performance of the materials has been explored. Various polymeric materials and carbon-course nanofillers were present, along with antibacterial, antifungal, and anticancer products. This review spots the light on the types of synthetic polymers-based carbon materials and presented state-of-art examples on their application in the area of biomedicine.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide and the discovery of new cytotoxic agents is needed. Enaminones are regarded to be a significant structural motif that is found in a variety of pharmacologically active compounds however the number of studies investigating the anticancer activities of N-propargylic β-enaminones (NPEs) is limited. Herein we investigated the potential cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of 23 different NPEs (1-23) on human breast cancer cells. Cytotoxicity was evaluated via MTT assay. Apoptotic cell death and cell cycle distributions were investigated by flow cytometry. CM-H2DCFDA dye was used to evaluate cellular ROS levels. Expression levels of Bcl-2, Bax, p21, and Cyclin D1 were measured by quantitative real-time PCR. ADME properties were calculated using the ADMET 2.0 tool. NPEs 4, 9, 16, and 21 showed selective cytotoxic activity against breast cancer cells with SI values >2. NPEs induced apoptosis and caused significant changes in Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA levels. The cell cycle was arrested at the G0/G1 phase and levels of p21 and Cyclin D1 were upregulated in both breast cancer cells. ROS levels were significantly increased by NPEs, suggesting that the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of NPEs were mediated by ROS. ADME analysis revealed that NPEs showed favorable distributions in both breast cancer cell lines, meaning good lipophilicity values, low unfractionated values, and high bioavailability. Therefore, these potential anticancer compounds should be further validated by in vivo studies for their appropriate function in human health with a safety profile, and a comprehensive drug interaction study should be performed.

Abstract
Integrated regeneration of periodontal tissues remains a challenge in current clinical applications. Due to the tunable physical characteristics and the precise control of the scaffold microarchitecture, three-dimensionally (3D) printed gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA)-based scaffold has emerged as a promising strategy for periodontal tissue regeneration. However, the optimization of the printing biomaterial links the formulation and the relationship between the composition and structures of the printed scaffolds and their comprehensive properties (e.g. mechanical strength, degradation, and biological behaviors) remains unclear. Here, in this work, a novel mesoporous bioactive glass (BG)/GelMA biomimetic scaffold with a large pore size (∼300 μm) was developed by extrusion-based 3D printing. Our results showed that the incorporation of mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (BG NPs) significantly improved shape fidelity, surface roughness, and bioactivity of 3D-printed macroporous GelMA scaffolds, resulting in the enhanced effects on cell attachment and promoting osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation in human periodontal ligament cells. The excellent maintenance of the macropore structure, the visibly improved cells spreading, the release of bioactive ions (Si4+, Ca2+), the upregulation of gene expressions of osteogenesis and cementogensis, and the increase in alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium nodules suggested that BG NPs could endow GelMA-based scaffolds with excellent structural stability and the ability to promote osteogenic/cementogenic differentiation. Our findings demonstrated the great potential of the newly formulated biomaterial inks and biomimetic BG/GelMA scaffolds for being used in periodontal tissue regeneration and provide important insights into the understanding of cell-scaffold interaction in promoting the regeneration of functional periodontal tissues.

Abstract
Functional repair of osteochondral defects caused due to osteoarthritis still remains the greatest challenge in orthopedic therapy. A prospective clinical strategy would be exploring osteochondral tissue engineering possibilities that promote simultaneous regeneration of the articular cartilage layer as well as the underlying subchondral bone. Incorporating the appropriate cues onto the scaffolds for the regeneration of the two contrasting tissues is therefore a demanding function. In the present study, a polymer-ceramic composite scaffolding material consisting of ternary bioactive glass (67.12 SiO2/28.5 CaO/4.38 P2O5 mol %) incorporated into a semi interpenetrating polymer network of hydrophilic-hydrophobic polymer (poly(vinyl alcohol)-polycaprolactone) matrix is prepared and physicochemically characterized. In vitro bioactivity, bone-bonding ability, and biocompatibility evaluation were performed in comparison with the pristine scaffold. The degree of chondrogenic and osteogenic potential of mesenchymal stem cells in both the scaffolds was evaluated by gene expression studies. Although both the scaffolds favored the differentiation to both cell lineages in their respective medium, a higher expression of bone specific genes found with the composite scaffold suggested that this composite scaffold would serve better for osteal layer and henceforth to promote the integration of the osteochondral construct at the defect site.

Abstract
Now it is possible to combine the different biomaterial properties of graphene and 3 D printing scaffolds produced by tissue engineering for cartilage repair. In the study graphene-containing (1, 3, 5, 10 wt%), porous and oriented poly-ε-caprolactone-based scaffolds were prepared by robocasting method to use in the regeneration of large osteochondral defects. The scaffolds were implanted into the full-thickness osteochondral defect in a rabbit model to evaluate the regeneration of the defect in vivo. For this purpose, twenty female New Zealand white rabbits were used and they were euthanized at 4 and 8 weeks of implantation. The reparative osteochondral tissues were harvested from rabbit distal femurs and then processed for gross appearance assessment, radiographic imaging, histopathological, histochemical and immunohistochemical examinations. Results revealed that graphene-containing graft materials caused significant amelioration at the defect areas. Graphene-containing graft materials improved the fibrous, chondroid and osseous tissue regeneration compared to the control group. The expressions of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), collagen-1 (col-1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) expressions were more prominent in graphene-containing PCL implanted groups (p < .001). Picrosirrius red method was used for to evaluate connective and muscle tissues. Results also revealed that the ameliorative effect of graphene increased by the elevation in concentration. The most prominent healing was observed in 10 wt% graphene-containing PCL based composite scaffold implanted group. This study results showed that graphene-containing PCL scaffolds enhanced the healing significantly in large osteochondral defect areas compared to the control groups.

Abstract
Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) as a bio-based osteochondral inductive material was chemically immobilized on the surface of polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers to fabricate scaffolds for osteochondral tissue engineering applications. The chemical immobilization process included the aminolysis of ester bonds and bonding of the primary amines with glutaraldehyde as a coupling agent. The SEM and FTIR results confirmed the successfulness of the CMC immobilization. The fabricated scaffolds presented cell viabilities of > 82% and supported the attachment and proliferation of the human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs). The CMC-immobilized scaffolds concentration dependently induced the diverse osteochondral differentiation pathways for the hBM-MSCs without using any external differential agents. According to the Alcian Blue and Alizarin Red staining and immunocytochemistry results, scaffolds with a higher content of CMC presented more chondro-inductivity and less osteoinductivity. Thus, the CMC-immobilized scaffolds can be employed as great potential candidates for osteochondral tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
As the main load-bearing structure in the human body, bone and cartilage are susceptible to damage in sports and other activities. The repair and regeneration of bone and articular cartilage have been extensively studied in the past decades. Traditional approaches have been widely applied in clinical practice, but the effect varies from person to person and may cause side effects. With the rapid development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, various biomaterials show great potential in the regeneration of bone and cartilage. Carbon-based nanomaterials are solid materials with different structures and properties composed of allotropes of carbon, which are classified into zero-, one-, and two-dimensional ones. This Review systemically summarizes the different types of carbon-based nanomaterials, including zero-dimensional (fullerene, carbon dots, nanodiamonds), one-dimensional (carbon nanotubes), and two-dimensional (graphenic materials) as well as their applications in bone, cartilage, and osteochondral regeneration. Current limitations and future perspectives of carbon-based nanomaterials are also discussed.

Mg-BGNs/DCECM Composite Scaffold for Cartilage Regeneration: A Preliminary In Vitro Study. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13101550.

Abstract
Cartilage lesions can lead to progressive cartilage degeneration; moreover, they involve the subchondral bone, resulting in osteoarthritis (OA) onset and progression. Bioactive glasses, with the dual function of supporting both bone and cartilage regeneration, have become a promising biomaterial for cartilage/bone engineering applications. This is especially true for those containing therapeutic ions, which act as ion delivery systems and may further promote cartilage repair. In this study, we successfully fabricated Mg-containing bioactive glass nanospheres (Mg-BGNs) and constructed three different scaffolds, DCECM, Mg-BGNs-1/DCECM (1% Mg-BGNs), and Mg-BGNs-2/DCECM (10% Mg-BGNs) scaffold, by incorporating Mg-BGNs into decellularized cartilage extracellular matrix (DCECM). All three scaffolds showed favorable microarchitectural and ion controlled-release properties within the ideal range of pore size for tissue engineering applications. Furthermore, all scaffolds showed excellent biocompatibility and no signs of toxicity. Most importantly, the addition of Mg-BGNs to the DCECM scaffolds significantly promoted cell proliferation and enhanced chondrogenic differentiation induction of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in pellet culture in a dose-dependent manner. Collectively, the multifunctional Mg-BGNs/DCECM composite scaffold not only demonstrated biocompatibility but also a significant chondrogenic response. Our study suggests that the Mg-BGNs/DCECM composite scaffold would be a promising tissue engineering tool for osteochondral lesions, with the ability to simultaneously stimulate articular cartilage and subchondral bone regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Articular cartilage plays a vital role in bearing and buffering. Injured cartilage and subchondral bone repair is a crucial challenge in cartilage tissue engineering due to the peculiar structure of osteochondral unit and the requirement of osteogenic/chondrogenic bi-directional differentiation. Based on the bionics principle, a nanotextured silk fibroin (SF)-chondroitin sulphate (CS)/hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanowire tough bilayer structure was prepared for osteochondral repair. METHODS The SF-CS/HAp membrane was constructed by alcohol-induced β-sheet formation serving as the physical crosslink. Its osteochondral repairing capacity was evaluated by culturing bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in vitro and constructing a rat osteochondral defect model in vivo. RESULTS The bilayer SF-CS/HAp membrane with satisfactory mechanical properties similar to natural cartilage imitated the natural osteochondral unit structural layers and exerted the function of bearing and buffering timely after in vivo implantation. SF-CS layer upregulated the expression of chondrogenesis-related genes of BMSCs by surface nanotopography and sustained release CS. Meanwhile, nanotextured HAp layer assembled with nanowire endowed the membrane with an osteogenic differentiation tendency for BMSCs. In vivo results proved that the biomimetic bilayer structure dramatically promoted new cartilage formation and subchondral bone remodelling for osteochondral defect model after implantation. CONCLUSIONS The SF-CS/HAp biomimetic bilayer membrane provides a promising strategy for precise osteochondral repair.

Abstract
Regenerative engineering holds the potential to treat clinically pervasive osteochondral defects (OCDs). In a synthetic materials-guided approach, the scaffold's chemical and physical properties alone instruct cellular behavior in order to effect regeneration, referred to herein as "instructive" properties. While this alleviates the costs and off-target risks associated with exogenous growth factors, the scaffold must be potently instructive to achieve tissue growth. Moreover, toward achieving functionality, such a scaffold should also recapitulate the spatial complexity of the osteochondral tissues. Thus, in addition to the regeneration of the articular cartilage and underlying cancellous bone, the complex osteochondral interface, composed of calcified cartilage and subchondral bone, should also be restored. In this Perspective, we highlight recent synthetic-based, instructive osteochondral scaffolds that have leveraged new material chemistries as well as innovative fabrication strategies. In particular, scaffolds with spatially complex chemical and morphological features have been prepared with electrospinning, solvent-casting-particulate-leaching, freeze-drying, and additive manufacturing. While few synthetic scaffolds have advanced to clinical studies to treat OCDs, these recent efforts point to the promising use of the chemical and physical properties of synthetic materials for regeneration of osteochondral tissues.

Abstract
3D printed biomaterials have been extensively investigated and developed in the field of bone regeneration related to clinical issues. However, specific applications of 3D printed biomaterials in different dental areas have seldom been reported. In this study, we aimed to and successfully fabricated 3D poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)/β-tricalcium phosphate (3D-PLGA/TCP) and 3D β-tricalcium phosphate (3D-TCP) scaffolds using two relatively distinct 3D printing (3DP) technologies. Conjunctively, we compared and investigated mechanical and biological responses on human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). Physicochemical properties of the scaffolds, including pore structure, chemical elements, and compression modulus, were characterized. hDPSCs were cultured on scaffolds for subsequent investigations of biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. Our findings indicate that 3D printed PLGA/TCP and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds possessed a highly interconnected and porous structure. 3D-TCP scaffolds exhibited better compressive strength than 3D-PLGA/TCP scaffolds, while the 3D-PLGA/TCP scaffolds revealed a flexible mechanical performance. The introduction of 3D structure and β-TCP components increased the adhesion and proliferation of hDPSCs and promoted osteogenic differentiation. In conclusion, 3D-PLGA/TCP and 3D-TCP scaffolds, with the incorporation of hDPSCs as a personalized restoration approach, has a prospective potential to repair minor and critical bone defects in oral and maxillofacial surgery, respectively.

Abstract
Repairing osteochondral defects to restore joint function is a major challenge in regenerative medicine. However, with recent advances in tissue engineering, the development of potential treatments is promising. In recent years, in addition to single-layer scaffolds, double-layer or multilayer scaffolds have been prepared to mimic the structure of articular cartilage and subchondral bone for osteochondral repair. Although there are a range of different cells such as umbilical cord stem cells, bone marrow mesenchyml stem cell, and others that can be used, the availability, ease of preparation, and the osteogenic and chondrogenic capacity of these cells are important factors that will influence its selection for tissue engineering. Furthermore, appropriate cell proliferation and differentiation of these cells is also key for the optimal repair of osteochondral defects. The development of bioreactors has enhanced methods to stimulate the proliferation and differentiation of cells. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in tissue engineering, including the development of layered scaffolds, cells, and bioreactors that have changed the approach towards the development of novel treatments for osteochondral repair.

Abstract
Creating scaffolds for skin tissue engineering remain challenging in terms of their mechanical and biological properties. In this paper, we present a study on the nanocomposite polyurethane (PU)/polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds with graphene oxide (GO), which were fabricated by using electrospinning method, for potential skin tissue engineering. For this, homogenous and soft PU nanofibers containing varying percent of polycaprolactone (12% and 15%) and nano GO (0.5-4%) were electrospun, respectively, and then characterized by different techniques/assays in vitro. For the scaffold characterization, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used. The SEM results show the spun scaffolds have 3D porous structure (90%) with the fiber diameter increased with the GO concentration, while the FTIR results confirmed the presence of PU, PCL, and Go in the scaffolds. Also, the biocompatibility, via the cytotoxicity, of the scaffolds was examined by MTT assay with the human skin fibroblast cells, along with their wettability in terms of contact angle. Our results show that the scaffolds are biocompatible to the skin fibroblast cell, illustrating their potential use in skin tissue engineering. Also, our results illustrate that the addition of GO to the PU/PCL composite can increase the wettability (or hydrophilicity) and biocompatibility of scaffolds. Combined together, the nanocomposite PU/PCL scaffolds with GO are promising as biocompatible constructs for skin tissue engineering.

Abstract
The reconstruction of osteochondral tissue remains a challenging task in clinical therapy because of its heterogeneous structure. The best way to face the challenge is to develop a biomimetic construct to mimic the multilayered gradient from cartilage, to calcified cartilage and subchondral bone. In this study, bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) were cultured on electrospun fibrous meshes and cell sheets were incubated. The fibrous meshes were composed of 50% poly(L-lactide) and 50% gelatin, displaying excellent biocompatibility, cell affinity and degradability. Differentiation of BMSC sheets on fibrous meshes was induced chondrogenically or osteogenically. In particular, the BMSC sheets were able to be efficiently induced differentiating towards calcified cartilage by using a 1:1 (v/v) mixed medium of chondrogenic and osteogenic inductive media. Thus, a gradient 3D construct was built by stacking the differently pre-differentiated cell/mesh complexes layer by layer from top to bottom to mimic the cartilage-to-bone transition. With this gradient construct being implanted in the rabbit knee osteochondral defect, it was confirmed that it could promote the tissue regeneration with intact cartilage layer formation in comparison with the multilayered construct without a gradient. The strategy of using properly pre-differentiated BMSC sheet on fibrous mesh to build the osteochondral interface was thus suggested as being feasible and effective in mimicking its hierarchical complexity, and favored the repairing of injured joint cartilage.
