Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 255:128094. [PMID: 37977466 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 11/04/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023]
Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BGs) have been extensively employed in treating bone defects due to their capacity to bond and integrate with hard and soft tissues. To promote their characteristics, BGs are doped with therapeutic inorganic ions; Among these, Cerium (Ce) is of special attention because of its material and biological properties. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the addition of Ce to BG on the physicochemical and biological properties of the alginate/gelatin (Alg-Gel) scaffold compared with a similar scaffold that only contains BG45S5. The scaffolds were characterized for their biocompatibility using human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) by MTT analysis. The osteogenic differentiation of hBM-MSCs cultured on the scaffolds was assessed by evaluating the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the expression of osteogenic-related genes. Scanning electron microscopy of the prepared scaffolds showed an interconnected porous structure with an average diameter of 212-272 μm. The Young's modulus of the scaffolds significantly increased from 13 ± 0.82 MPa for Alg-Gel to 91 ± 1.76 MPa for Alg-Gel-BG/Ce. Ce doping improved the osteogenic differentiation of hBM-MSCs and ALP secretion compared to the other samples, even without adding an osteogenic differentiation medium. The obtained results demonstrated the biocompatibility and osteo-inductive potentials of the Alg-Gel-BG/Ce scaffold for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The development of additive manufacturing methods known as "3D printing" started in the 1980s. In these methods, spatial models are created from a semi-finished product such as a powder, filament or liquid. The model is most often created in layers, which are created from the semi-finished product, which is most often subjected to thermal treatment or using light or ultraviolet rays. The technology of additive manufacturing has both advantages and disadvantages when compared to the traditionally used methods of processing thermoplastic materials, such as, for example, injection or extrusion. The most important advantages are low cost, flexibility and speed of manufacturing of elements with different spatial shapes. From the point of view of the user of the product, the most important disadvantages are the lower mechanical properties and lower resistance to environmental factors that occur during the use of the manufactured products. The purpose of this review is to present current information and a compilation of features in the field of research on the effects of the interactions of different types of environments on the mechanical properties of 3D-manufactured thermoplastic products. Changes in the structure and mechanical properties of the material under the influence of factors such as humidity, salt, temperature, UV rays, gasoline and the environment of the human body are presented. The presented article enables the effects of environmental conditions on common materials used in 3D printing technology to be collated in one place.

Abstract
Significant bone loss due to disease or severe injury can result in the need for a bone graft, with over 500,000 procedures occurring each year in the United States. However, the current standards for grafting, autografts and allografts, can result in increased patient morbidity or a high rate of failure respectively. An ideal alternative would be a biodegradable tissue engineered graft that fulfills the function of bone while promoting the growth of new bone tissue. We developed a prevascularized tissue engineered scaffold of electrospun biodegradable polymers PLLA and PDLA reinforced with hydroxyapatite, a mineral similar to that found in bone. A composite design was utilized to mimic the structure and function of human trabecular and cortical bone. These scaffolds were characterized mechanically and in vitro to determine osteoinductive and angioinductive properties. It was observed that further reinforcement is necessary for the scaffolds to mechanically match bone, but the scaffolds are successful at inducing the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into mature bone cells and vascular endothelial cells. Prevascularization was seen to have a positive effect on angiogenesis and cellular metabolic activity, critical factors for the integration of a graft.

Abstract
Regenerative engineering converges tissue engineering, advanced materials science, stem cell science, and developmental biology to regenerate complex tissues such as whole limbs. Regenerative engineering scaffolds provide mechanical support and nanoscale control over architecture, topography, and biochemical cues to influence cellular outcome. In this regard, poly (lactic acid) (PLA)-based biomaterials may be considered as a gold standard for many orthopaedic regenerative engineering applications because of their versatility in fabrication, biodegradability, and compatibility with biomolecules and cells. Here we discuss recent developments in PLA-based biomaterials with respect to processability and current applications in the clinical and research settings for bone, ligament, meniscus, and cartilage regeneration.
