[PMID: 39221198 PMCID: PMC11364913 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101187] [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: 06/20/2024] [Revised: 07/31/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Silica-based scaffolds are promising in Tissue Engineering by enabling personalized scaffolds, boosting exceptional bioactivity and osteogenic characteristics. Moreover, silica materials are highly tunable, allowing for controlled drug release to enhance tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a 3D printable silica material with controlled mesoporosity, achieved through the sol-gel reaction of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) at mild temperatures with the addition of different calcium concentrations. The resultant silica inks exhibited high printability and shape fidelity, while maintaining bioactivity and biocompatibility. Notably, the increased mesopore size enhanced the incorporation and release of large molecules, using cytochrome C as a drug model. Due to the varying surface charge of silica depending on the pH, a pH-dependent control release was obtained between pH 2.5 and 7.5, with maximum release in acidic conditions. Therefore, silica with controlled mesoporosity could be 3D printed, acting as a pH stimuli responsive platform with therapeutic potential.

Abstract
The failure of bone regeneration has been considered as a serious problem that troubling patients for decades, most of which was resulted by the poor angiogenesis and chronic inflammation after surgery. Among multiple materials applied in the repair of bone defect, silicate bioceramics attracted researchers because of its excellent bioactivity. The purpose of this study was to detect the effect of specific bioactive glass ceramic (AP40, based on crystalline phases of apatite and wollastonite) on angiogenesis and the subsequent bone growth through the modulation of macrophages. Two groups were included in this study: control group (macrophages without any stimulation, denominated as Control) and AP40 group (macrophages incubated on AP40). This study investigated the effect of AP40 on macrophages polarization (RAW264.7) and angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, the changes of angiogenic ability regulated by macrophages were explored. AP40 showed excellent angiogenesis potential and the expression of CD31 was promoted through the modulation of macrophages toward M2 subtype. Additionally, the macrophages incubated on AP40 synthesized more PDGF-BB comparing to macrophages without any stimulation, which contributed to the improved angiogenetic ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Results of in vivo studies indicated increased bone ingrowth along the implants, which indicated the potential of bioceramics for bone defect repair clinically.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bibliometrics was employed in this study to determine the research trends in the worldwide application of 3D printing technology to treat bone tumors over the previous 10 years. METHODS Published from 2013 to 2022, the papers related to bone tumors treated with 3D printing were located in Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC), PubMed, and Scopus. The screened articles were included in this bibliometric study. From these papers in WoSCC, information on annual publications, journals, keywords, countries, authors, institutions, and cited references were extracted and visualized with CiteSpace (version 6.1.R6) software to investigate the state of bone tumor treatment using 3D printing as well as research hotspots. The Carrot2 online visualization tool and Vosviewer software (version 1.6.20) were employed to visualize the publications from PubMed and Scopus, respectively, in order to ascertain the most popular research topics from both databases. RESULTS A total of 606, 233, and 364 publications were obtained from WoSCC, PubMed, and Scopus, respectively, between the years 2013 and 2022. In WoSCC, the peak number of publications was found in 2021, with 145 publications published. Acta Biomaterialia (11 publications) and World Neurosurgery (10 publications) were the most prolific journals, and Biomaterials was the journal cited the most (244 times). Yong Zhou was the most productive author with 14 publications, while Kwok-Chuen Wong (69 citations) and William F Enneking, (69 citations) possessed the most citations. The country with the largest quantity of publications was China (207). Among all institutions, Shanghai Jiao Tong University produced the most publications (29). Rapid prototyping was the keyword with the strongest citation burst (4.73).

Abstract
Accidents, trauma, bone defects, and oncological processes significantly impact patients' health and quality of life. While calcium phosphates and bioactive glasses are commonly used as bone fillers to facilitate bone regeneration in orthopedics and traumatology, they exhibit certain disadvantages compared to calcium silicophosphate phases. This study evaluates the in vitro cytocompatibility and in vivo osteogenic properties of two-third-generation ceramic phases: silicocarnotite (SC) and nagelschmidtite (Nagel). These phases were synthesized via a solid-state reaction and characterized using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. In vitro behavior was assessed through bioactivity tests, cell viability, proliferation, and inflammatory profiles by detecting cytokines and reactive oxygen species. Osteogenic properties were evaluated by detecting bone-associated proteins in MG-G3, hFOB1.19, and MC3T3-E1 cell lines after 3, 7, and 14 days. 45S5 Bioactive glass (BG), hydroxyapatite (HAp), and osteogenic medium were employed as control standards for bone formation. SC and Nagel phases exhibited higher viability percentages as well as osteoconductive and osteoinductive behavior. Finally, SC and Nagel bone grafts were implanted in a Wistar rat model to assess their in vivo ability to induce bone formation, demonstrating complete osseointegration after 12 weeks. Histological evaluation revealed osteocytes forming osteons and the presence of blood vessels, particularly in rats implanted with Nagel. Given their favorable biological performance, SC and Nagel emerge as promising candidates for bone grafts in orthopedics, traumatology, and maxillofacial surgery.

Reinforcing β-tricalcium phosphate scaffolds for potential applications in bone tissue engineering: impact of functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Sci Rep 2024; 14:19055. [PMID: 39154029 PMCID: PMC11330522 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-68419-2] [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: 12/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/19/2024] Open
Abstract
Beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) scaffolds manufactured through the foam replication method are widely employed in bone tissue regeneration. The mechanical strength of these scaffolds is a significant challenge, partly due to the rheological properties of the original suspension. Various strategies have been explored to enhance the mechanical properties. In this research, β-TCP scaffolds containing varying concentrations (0.25-1.00 wt%) of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were developed. The findings indicate that the addition of MWCNTs led to a concentration-dependent improvement in the viscosity of β-TCP suspensions. All the prepared slurries exhibited viscoelastic behavior, with the storage modulus surpassing the loss modulus. The three time interval tests revealed that MWCNT-incorporated β-TCP suspensions exhibited faster structural recovery compared to pure β-TCP slurries. Introducing MWCNT modified compressive strength, and the optimal improvement was obtained using 0.75 wt% MWCNT. The in vitro degradation of β-TCP was also reduced by incorporating MWCNT. While the inclusion of carbon nanotubes had a marginal negative impact on the viability and attachment of MC3T3-E1 cells, the number of viable cells remained above 70% of the control group. Additionally, the results demonstrated that the scaffold increased the expression level of osteocalcin, osteoponthin, and alkaline phosphatase genes of adiposed-derived stem cells; however, higher levels of gene expersion were obtained by using MWCNT. The suitability of MWCNT-modified β-TCP suspensions for the foam replication method can be assessed by evaluating their rheological behavior, aiding in determining the critical additive concentration necessary for a successful coating process.

Abstract
The repair and functional reconstruction of bone defects resulting from severe trauma, surgical resection, degenerative disease, and congenital malformation pose significant clinical challenges. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) holds immense potential in treating these severe bone defects, without incurring prevalent complications associated with conventional autologous or allogeneic bone grafts. 3D printing technology enables control over architectural structures at multiple length scales and has been extensively employed to process biomimetic scaffolds for BTE. In contrast to inert and functional bone grafts, next-generation smart scaffolds possess a remarkable ability to mimic the dynamic nature of native extracellular matrix (ECM), thereby facilitating bone repair and regeneration. Additionally, they can generate tailored and controllable therapeutic effects, such as antibacterial or antitumor properties, in response to exogenous and/or endogenous stimuli. This review provides a comprehensive assessment of the progress of 3D-printed smart scaffolds for BTE applications. It begins with an introduction to bone physiology, followed by an overview of 3D printing technologies utilized for smart scaffolds. Notable advances in various stimuli-responsive strategies, therapeutic efficacy, and applications of 3D-printed smart scaffolds are discussed. Finally, the review highlights the existing challenges in the development and clinical implementation of smart scaffolds, as well as emerging technologies in this field.

Abstract
This work presents the effect of the silicocarnotite (SC) and nagelschmidtite (Nagel) phases on in vitro osteogenesis. The known hydroxyapatite of biological origin (BHAp) was used as a standard of osteoconductive characteristics. The evaluation was carried out in conventional and osteogenic media for comparative purposes to assess the osteogenic ability of the bioceramics. First, the effect of the material on cell viability at 24 h, 7 and 14 days of incubation was evaluated. In addition, cell morphology and attachment on dense bioceramic surfaces were observed by fluorescence microscopy. Specifically, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was evaluated as an osteogenic marker of the early stages of bone cell differentiation. Mineralized extracellular matrix was observed by calcium phosphate deposits and extracellular vesicle formation. Furthermore, cell phenotype determination was confirmed by scanning electron microscope. The results provided relevant information on the cell attachment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation processes after 7 and 14 days of incubation. Finally, it was demonstrated that SC and Nagel phases promote cell proliferation and differentiation, while the Nagel phase exhibited a superior osteoconductive behavior and could promote MC3T3-E1 cell differentiation to a higher extent than SC and BHAp, which was reflected in a higher number of deposits in a shorter period for both conventional and osteogenic media.

Abstract
Critical-sized bone defects represent a significant clinical challenge due to their inability to undergo spontaneous regeneration, necessitating graft interventions for effective treatment. The development of tissue-engineered scaffolds and regenerative medicine has made bone tissue engineering a highly viable treatment for bone defects. The physical and biological properties of nanocomposite biomaterials, which have optimized structures and the ability to simulate the regenerative microenvironment of bone, are promising for application in the field of tissue engineering. These biomaterials offer distinct advantages over traditional materials by facilitating cellular adhesion and proliferation, maintaining excellent osteoconductivity and biocompatibility, enabling precise control of degradation rates, and enhancing mechanical properties. Importantly, they can simulate the natural structure of bone tissue, including the specific microenvironment, which is crucial for promoting the repair and regeneration of bone defects. This manuscript provides a comprehensive review of the recent research developments and applications of structure-optimized and microenvironment-inspired nanocomposite biomaterials in bone tissue engineering. This review focuses on the properties and advantages these materials offer for bone repair and tissue regeneration, summarizing the latest progress in the application of nanocomposite biomaterials for bone tissue engineering and highlighting the challenges and future perspectives in the field. Through this analysis, the paper aims to underscore the promising potential of nanocomposite biomaterials in bone tissue engineering, contributing to the informed design and strategic planning of next-generation biomaterials for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Objectives Calcium phosphate-based biomaterials (CaP) are the most widely used biomaterials to enhance bone regeneration in the treatment of alveolar bone deficiencies, cranio-maxillofacial and periodontal infrabony defects, with positive preclinical and clinical results reported. This systematic review aimed to assess the influence of the physicochemical properties of CaP biomaterials on the performance of bone regeneration in preclinical animal models. Methods The PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science databases were searched to retrieve the preclinical studies investigating physicochemical characteristics of CaP biomaterials. The studies were screened for inclusion based on intervention (physicochemical characterization and in vivo evaluation) and reported measurable outcomes. Results A total of 1532 articles were retrieved and 58 studies were ultimately included in the systematic review. A wide range of physicochemical characteristics of CaP biomaterials was found to be assessed in the included studies. Despite a high degree of heterogeneity, the meta-analysis was performed on 39 studies and evidenced significant effects of biomaterial characteristics on their bone regeneration outcomes. The study specifically showed that macropore size, Ca/P ratio, and compressive strength exerted significant influence on the formation of newly regenerated bone. Moreover, factors such as particle size, Ca/P ratio, and surface area were found to impact bone-to-material contact during the regeneration process. In terms of biodegradability, the amount of residual graft was determined by macropore size, particle size, and compressive strength. Conclusion The systematic review showed that the physicochemical characteristics of CaP biomaterials are highly determining for scaffold's performance, emphasizing its usefulness in designing the next generation of bone scaffolds to target higher rates of regeneration.

Abstract
Surgical resection of bone tumors is the primary approach employed in the treatment of bone cancer. Simultaneously, perioperative interventions, particularly postoperative adjuvant anticancer strategies, play a crucial role in achieving satisfactory therapeutic outcomes. However, the occurrence of postoperative bone tumor recurrence, metastasis, extensive bone defects, and infection are significant risks that can result in unfavorable prognoses or even treatment failure. In recent years, there has been significant progress in the development of biomaterials, leading to the emergence of new treatment options for bone tumor therapy and bone regeneration. This progress report aims to comprehensively analyze the strategic development of unique therapeutic biomaterials with inherent healing properties and bioactive capabilities for bone tissue regeneration. These composite biomaterials, classified into metallic, inorganic non-metallic, and organic types, are thoroughly investigated for their responses to external stimuli such as light or magnetic fields, internal interventions including chemotherapy or catalytic therapy, and combination therapy, as well as their role in bone regeneration. Additionally, an overview of self-healing materials for osteogenesis is provided and their potential applications in combating osteosarcoma and promoting bone formation are explored. Furthermore, the safety concerns of integrated materials and current limitations are addressed, while also discussing the challenges and future prospects.

[PMID: 38401482 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122511] [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: 10/02/2023] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 02/26/2024]
Abstract
Combination of different therapies is an attractive approach for cancer therapy. However, it is a challenge to synchronize different therapies for maximization of therapeutic effects. In this work, a smart composite scaffold that could synchronize magnetic hyperthermia and chemotherapy was prepared by hybridization of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and doxorubicin (Dox)-loaded thermosensitive liposomes with biodegradable polymers. Irradiation of alternating magnetic field (AMF) could not only increase the scaffold temperature for magnetic hyperthermia but also trigger the release of Dox for chemotherapy. The two functions of magnetic hyperthermia and chemotherapy were synchronized by switching AMF on and off. The synergistic anticancer effects of the composite scaffold were confirmed by in vitro cell culture and in vivo animal experiments. The composite scaffold could efficiently eliminate breast cancer cells under AMF irradiation. Moreover, the scaffold could support proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells for adipose tissue reconstruction after anticancer treatment. In vivo regeneration experiments showed that the composite scaffolds could effectively maintain their structural integrity and facilitate the infiltration and proliferation of normal cells within the scaffolds. The composite scaffold possesses multi-functions and is attractive as a novel platform for efficient breast cancer therapy.

Abstract
The evaluation of nanostructured biomaterials and medicines is associated with 2D cultures that provide insight into biological mechanisms at the molecular level, while critical aspects of the tumor microenvironment (TME) are provided by the study of animal xenograft models. More realistic models that can histologically reproduce human tumors are provided by tissue engineering methods of co-culturing cells of varied phenotypes to provide 3D tumor spheroids that recapitulate the dynamic TME in 3D matrices. The novel approaches of creating 3D tumor models are combined with tumor tissue engineering (TTE) scaffolds including hydrogels, bioprinted materials, decellularized tissues, fibrous and nanostructured matrices. This review focuses on the use of nanostructured materials in cancer therapy and regeneration, and the development of realistic models for studying TME molecular and immune characteristics. Tissue regeneration is an important aspect of TTE scaffolds used for restoring the normal function of the tissues, while providing cancer treatment. Thus, this article reports recent advancements in the development of 3D TTE models for antitumor drug screening, studying tumor metastasis, and tissue regeneration. Also, this review identifies the significant opportunities of using 3D TTE scaffolds in the evaluation of the immunological mechanisms and processes involved in the application of immunotherapies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bone defects are one of the main limitations in orthopaedic surgery and traumatology. For this reason, multiple bone replacement systems have been developed, either by prosthetic implant or by substitution with osteoforming substances, whose limitations are their survival and lack of structurality, respectively. The objective of this work is the generation of a new material for the creation of biologically active structures that have sufficient tensile strength to maintain the structure during remodelling. MATERIAL AND METHODS A new filament based on the fusion of natural polylactide acid (PLA) powder was designed for the generation of pieces by means of fused deposition modelling (FDM) on which to carry out tensile mechanical tests of osteosynthesis material. A total of 13 groups with different cortical thickness, filling and layer height were carried out, with 10 tensile tests in each group, defining the tensile breaking limit for each group. The regression lines for each group and their mechanical resistance to traction on the filament used were determined. RESULTS The filament ratio per contact surface unit with the osteosynthesis used was the main determinant of the mechanical resistance to traction, either at the expense of the increase in cortical thickness or by the increase in the percentage of cancellous bone filling. Layer height had a minor effect on tensile strength. The regression value was high for cortical thickness and cancellous filling, being elements with a predictable biomechanical behaviour. CONCLUSIONS The new methodology allows the creation of personalised neutral and implantable PLA bone matrices for the reconstruction of large bone defects by means of 3D printing by FDM with a mechanical resistance to traction greater than that of current biological support structures.

Abstract
Infective bone defect is increasingly threatening human health. How to achieve the optimal antibacterial activity and regenerative repair of infective bone defect simultaneously is a huge challenge in clinic. Herein, this work reports a rational integration of Mn single-atom nanozyme into the 3D-printed bioceramic scaffolds (Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds). The integrated Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds can catalyze the conversion of H2O2 to produce hydroxyl radical (•OH) and superoxide anion (O2 •-) through cascade reaction. Besides, the prominent thermal conversion efficiency of Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds can be utilized for sonodynamic therapy (SDT). The synergetic strategy of chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/SDT enables the sufficient generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to kill Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) or Escherichia coli (E. coli). Furthermore, the enhanced antibacterial efficacy of Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds is beneficial to upregulate the expression of osteogenesis-related markers (such as collagen 1(COL1), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteoprotegerin (OPG)) in vitro and further promote bone regeneration in vivo. The results demonstrate the good potential of Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds for the enhanced antibacterial activity and bone regeneration, which provide an effective method for the treatment of clinical infective bone defect.

Abstract
Osteochondral defects are often accompanied by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by osteoarthritis or acute surgical inflammation. An inflammatory environment containing excess ROS will not only hinder tissue regeneration but also impact the quality of newly formed tissues. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop scaffolds with both ROS scavenging and osteochondral repair functions to promote and protect osteochondral tissue regeneration. In this work, by using 3D printing technology, a composite scaffold based on cobalt-incorporated chloroapatite (Co-ClAP) bioceramics, which possesses ROS-scavenging activity and can support cell proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation, is developed. Benefiting from the catalytic activity of Co-ClAP bioceramics, the composite scaffold can protect cells from oxidative damage under ROS-excessive conditions, support their directional differentiation, and simultaneously mediate an anti-inflammatory microenvironment. In addition, it is also confirmed by using rabbit osteochondral defect model that the Co-ClAP/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) scaffold can effectively promote the integrated regeneration of cartilage and subchondral bone, exhibiting an ideal repair effect in vivo. This study provides a promising strategy for the treatment of defects with excess ROS and inflammatory microenvironments.

Abstract
Bone fractures and critical-size bone defects are significant public health issues, and clinical treatment outcomes are closely related to the intrinsic properties of the utilized implant materials. Zinc (Zn)-based biodegradable metals (BMs) have emerged as promising bioactive materials because of their exceptional biocompatibility, appropriate mechanical properties, and controllable biodegradation. This review summarizes the state of the art in terms of Zn-based metals for bone repair and regeneration, focusing on bridging the gap between biological mechanism and required bioactivity. The molecular mechanism underlying the release of Zn ions from Zn-based BMs in the improvement of bone repair and regeneration is elucidated.

Abstract
Drug delivery platforms have gracefully emerged as an indispensable component of novel cancer chemotherapy, bestowing targeted drug distribution, elevating therapeutic effects, and reducing the burden of unwanted side effects. In this context, hybrid delivery systems artfully harnessing the virtues of liposomes and hydrogels bring remarkable benefits, especially for localized cancer therapy, including intensified stability, excellent amenability to hydrophobic and hydrophilic medications, controlled liberation behavior, and appropriate mucoadhesion to mucopenetration shift. Moreover, three-dimensional biocompatible liposome-integrated hydrogel networks have attracted unprecedented interest in tissue regeneration, given their tunable architecture and physicochemical properties, as well as enhanced mechanical support. This review elucidates and presents cutting-edge developments in recruiting liposome-integrated hydrogel systems for cancer treatment and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The application of additive manufacturing (AM) technology plays a significant role in various fields, incorporating a wide range of cutting-edge technologies such as aerospace, medical treatment, electronic information, and materials. It is currently widely adopted for medical services, national defense, and industrial manufacturing. In recent years, AM has also been extensively employed to produce bone scaffolds and implant materials. Through AM, products can be manufactured without being constrained by complex internal structures. AM is particularly advantageous in the production of macroscopically irregular and microscopically porous biomimetic bone scaffolds, with short production cycles required. In this paper, AM commonly used to produce bone scaffolds and orthopedic implants is overviewed to analyze the different materials and structures adopted for AM. The applications of antibacterial bone scaffolds and bone scaffolds in biologically relevant animal models are discussed. Also, the influence on the comprehensive performance of product mechanics, mass transfer, and biology is explored. By identifying the reasons for the limited application of existing AM in the biomedical field, the solutions are proposed. This study provides an important reference for the future development of AM in the field of orthopedic healthcare. In conclusion, various AM technologies, the requirements of bone scaffolds and the important role of AM in building bridges between biomaterials, additives, and bone tissue engineering scaffolds are described and highlighted. Nevertheless, more caution should be exercised when designing bone scaffolds and conducting in vivo trials, due to the lack of standardized processes, which prevents the accuracy of results and reduces the reliability of information.

Abstract
This study evaluated the biocompatibility and accuracy of 3D-printed β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) pure ceramic scaffolds. A specific shaping process associating a digital light processing (DLP) 3D printer and a heat treatment was developed to produce pure β-TCP scaffolds leaving no polymer binder residue. The β-TCP was characterised using X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and the detection of pollutants. The open porosity of produced matrices and their resorption were studied by hydrostatic weighing and calcium release measures. The biocompatibility of the printed matrices was evaluated by mean of osteoblast cultures. Finally, macroporous cubic matrices were produced. They were scanned using a micro-Computed Tomography scanner (micro-CT scan) and compared to their numeric models. The results demonstrated that DLP 3D printing with heat treatment produces pure β-TCP matrices with enhanced biocompatibility. They also demonstrated the printing accuracy of our technique, associating top-down DLP with the sintering of green parts. Thus, this production process is promising and will enable us to explore complex phosphocalcic matrices with a special focus on the development of a functional vascular network.

Magnesium-containing bioceramics stimulate exosomal miR-196a-5p secretion to promote senescent osteogenesis through targeting Hoxa7/MAPK signaling axis. Bioact Mater 2024; 33:14-29. [PMID: 38024235 PMCID: PMC10661166 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.10.024] [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: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Stem cell senescence is characterized by progressive functional dysfunction and secretory phenotypic changes including decreased proliferation, dysfunction of osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation, increased secretion of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), which bring difficulties for bone repair. Rescuing or delaying senescence of aged bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (O-BMSCs) was considered as effective strategy for bone regeneration in aging microenvironment. Magnesium (Mg) ion released from bioceramics was reported to facilitate bone regeneration via enhancing osteogenesis and alleviating senescence. In this study, Akermanite biocreamics (Akt) containing Mg ion as a model was demonstrated to promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis effects of O-BMSCs by activating the MAPK signaling pathway in vitro. Moreover, the enhanced osteogenesis effects might be attributed to enhanced Mg-containing Akt-mediated exosomal miR-196a-5p cargo targeting Hoxa7 and activation of MAPK signaling pathway. Furthermore, the in vivo study confirmed that 3D-printed porous Mg-containing Akt scaffolds effectively increased bone regeneration in cranial defects of aged rats. The current results indicated that the exosomal-miR-196a-5p/Hoxa7/MAPK signaling axis might be the potential mechanism underlying Akt-mediated osteogenesis. The exosome-meditaed therapy stimulated by the released Mg ion contained in Akt biocreamics or other biomaterials might serve as a candidate strategy for bone repair in aged individuals.

Abstract
The treatment of critical-sized bone defects has long been a major problem for surgeons. In this study, an intramedullary nail shaped three-dimensional (3D)-printed porous titanium implant that is capable of releasing strontium ions was developed through a simple and cost-effective surface modification technique. The feasibility of this implant as a stand-alone solution was evaluated using a rabbit's segmental diaphyseal as a defect model. The strontium-loaded implant exhibited a favorable environment for cell adhesion, and mechanical properties that were commensurate with those of a rabbit's cortical bone. Radiographic, biomechanical, and histological analyses revealed a significantly higher amount of bone ingrowth and superior bone-bonding strength in the strontium-loaded implant when compared to an untreated porous titanium implant. Furthermore, one-year histological observations revealed that the strontium-loaded implant preserved the native-like diaphyseal bone structure without failure. These findings suggest that strontium-releasing 3D-printed titanium implants have the clinical potential to induce the early and efficient repair of critical-sized, load-bearing bone defects.

Abstract
Articular osteochondral (OC) defects are a global clinical problem characterized by loss of full-thickness articular cartilage with underlying calcified cartilage through to the subchondral bone. While current surgical treatments can relieve pain, none of them can completely repair all components of the OC unit and restore its original function. With the rapid development of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, admirable progress has been made in bone and cartilage reconstruction, providing new strategies for restoring joint function. 3D printing has the advantages of fast speed, high precision, and personalized customization to meet the requirements of irregular geometry, differentiated composition, and multi-layered boundary layer structures of joint OC scaffolds. This review captures the original published researches on the application of 3D printing technology to the repair of entire OC units and provides a comprehensive summary of the recent advances in 3D printed OC scaffolds. We first introduce the gradient structure and biological properties of articular OC tissue. The considerations for the development of 3D printed OC scaffolds are emphatically summarized, including material types, fabrication techniques, structural design and seed cells. Especially from the perspective of material composition and structural design, the classification, characteristics and latest research progress of discrete gradient scaffolds (biphasic, triphasic and multiphasic scaffolds) and continuous gradient scaffolds (gradient material and/or structure, and gradient interface) are summarized. Finally, we also describe the important progress and application prospect of 3D printing technology in OC interface regeneration. 3D printing technology for OC reconstruction should simulate the gradient structure of subchondral bone and cartilage. Therefore, we must not only strengthen the basic research on OC structure, but also continue to explore the role of 3D printing technology in OC tissue engineering. This will enable better structural and functional bionics of OC scaffolds, ultimately improving the repair of OC defects.

Abstract
3D printing has become increasingly popular in the field of bone tissue engineering. However, the mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and porosity of the 3D printed bone scaffolds are major requirements for tissue regeneration and implantation as well. Designing the scaffold architecture in accordance with the need to create better mechanical and biological stimuli is necessary to achieve unique scaffold properties. To accomplish this, different 3D designing strategies can be utilized with the help of the scaffold design library and artificial intelligence (AI). The implementation of AI to assist the 3D printing process can enable it to predict, adapt, and control the parameters on its own, which lowers the risk of errors. This Review emphasizes 3D design and fabrication of bone scaffold using different materials and the use of AI-aided 3D printing strategies. Also, the adaption of AI to 3D printing helps to develop patient-specific scaffolds based on different requirements, thus providing feedback and adequate data for reproducibility, which can be improvised in the future. These printed scaffolds can also serve as an alternative to preclinical animal test models to cut costs and prevent immunological interference.

Abstract
While available treatments have addressed a variety of complications in the dentoalveolar region, associated challenges have resulted in exploration of tissue engineering techniques. Often, scaffold biomaterials with specific properties are required for such strategies to be successful, development of which is an active area of research. This study focuses on the development of a copolymer of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) and chitosan, used for 3D printing of scaffolds for dentoalveolar regeneration. The synthesized material was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and the possibility of printing was evaluated through various printability tests. The rate of degradation and swelling was analyzed through gravimetry, and surface morphology was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Viability of dental pulp stem cells seeded on the scaffolds was evaluated by live/dead analysis and DNA quantification. The results demonstrated successful copolymerization, and three formulations among various synthesized formulations were successfully 3D printed. Up to 35% degradability was confirmed within 7 days, and a maximum swelling of approximately 1200% was achieved. Furthermore, initial assessment of cell viability demonstrated biocompatibility of the developed scaffolds. While further studies are required to achieve the tissue engineering goals, the present results tend to indicate that the proposed hydrogel might be a valid candidate for scaffold fabrication serving dentoalveolar tissue engineering through 3D printing.

Abstract
This study is focused on the importance of nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) particle morphology with the same particle size range on the rheological behavior of polycaprolactone (PCL) composite ink with nHA as a promising candidate for additive manufacturing technologies. Two different physiologic-like nHA morphologies, that is, plate and rod shape, with particles size less than 100 nm were used. nHA powders were well characterized and the printing inks were prepared by adding the different ratios of nHA powders to 50% w/v of PCL solution (nHA/PCL: 35/65, 45/55, 55/45, and 65/35 w/w%). Subsequently, the influence of nHA particle morphology and concentration on the printability and rheological properties of composite inks was investigated. HA nanopowder analysis revealed significant differences in their microstructural properties, which affected remarkably the composite ink printability in several ways. For instance, adding up to 65% w/w of plate-like nHA to the PCL solution was possible, while nanorod HA could not be added above 45% w/w. The printed constructs were successfully fabricated using the extrusion-based printing method and had a porous structure with interconnected pores. Total porosity and surface area increased with nHA content due to the improved fiber stability following deposition of material ink. Consequently, degradation rate and bioactivity increased, while compressive properties decreased. While nanorod HA particles had a more significant impact on the mechanical strength than plate-like morphology, the latter showed less crystalline order, which makes them more bioactive than nanorod HA. It is therefore important to note that the nHA microstructure broadly affects the printability of printing ink and should be considered according to the intended biomedical applications.

Abstract
The repair and reconstruction of large bone defects after bone tumor resection is still a great clinical challenge. At present, orthopedic implant reconstruction is the mainstream treatment for repairing bone defects. However, according to clinical feedback, local tumor recurrence and nonunion of bone graft are common reasons leading to the failure of bone defect repair and reconstruction after bone tumor resection, which seriously threaten the physical and mental health of patients. On this basis, here the self-developed low modulus Ti-12Mo-10Zr alloy (TMZ) was chosen as substrate material. To improve its biological activity and osteointegration, calcium, oxygen, and phosphorus co-doped microporous coating was prepared on TMZ alloy by microarc oxidation (MAO). Then, black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets were incorporated onto MAO treated TMZ alloy to obtain multifunctional composites. The obtained BP-MAO-TMZ implant exhibited excellent photothermal effects and effective ablation of osteosarcoma cancer cells under the irradiation of 808 nm near infrared laser, while no photothermal or therapeutic effects were observed for TMZ alloy. Meanwhile, the structure/component bionic coating obtained after MAO treatment as well as the P-driven in situ biomineralization performance after incorporation of BP nanosheets endowed BP-MAO-TMZ implant with synergistic promoting effect on MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts' activity, proliferation and differentiation ability. This study is expected to provide effective clinical solutions for problems of difficult bone regeneration and tumor recurrence after tumor resection in patients with bone tumors and to solve a series of medical problems such as poor prognosis and poor postoperative quality of patients life with malignant bone tumors.

JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2024; 35:7.

Abstract
In this study, nanocomposite scaffolds of hydroxyapatite (HA)/polycaprolactone (PCL)/gelatin (Gel) with varying amounts of HA (42-52 wt. %), PCL (42-52 wt. %), and Gel (6 wt. %) were 3D printed. Subsequently, a scaffold with optimal mechanical properties was utilized as a carrier for doxorubicin (DOX) in the treatment of bone cancer. For this purpose, HA nanoparticles were first synthesized by the hydrothermal conversion of Acropora coral and characterized by using different techniques. Also, a compression test was performed to investigate the mechanical properties of the fabricated scaffolds. The mineralization of the optimal scaffold was determined by immersing it in simulated body fluid (SBF) solution for 28 days, and the biocompatibility was investigated by seeding MG-63 osteoblast-like cells on it after 1-7 days. The obtained results showed that the average size of the synthesized HA particles was about 80 nm. The compressive modulus and strength of the scaffold with 47 wt. % HA was reported to be 0.29 GPa and 9.9 MPa, respectively, which was in the range of trabecular bones. In addition, the scaffold surface was entirely coated with an apatite layer after 28 days of soaking in SBF. Also, the efficiency and loading percentage of DOX were obtained as 30.8 and 1.6%, respectively. The drug release behavior was stable for 14 days. Cytotoxicity and adhesion evaluations showed that the fabricated scaffold had no negative effects on the viability of MG-63 cells and led to their proliferation during the investigated period. From these results, it can be concluded that the HA/PCL/Gel scaffold prepared in this study, in addition to its drug release capability, has good bioactivity, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility, and can be considered a suitable option for bone tumor treatment.

Abstract
Objective: Considering the advantages and widespread presence of 3D-printing technology in surgical treatments, 3D-printed porous structure prostheses have been applied in a wide range of the treatments of bone tumor. In this research, we aimed to assess the application values of the 3D-printed custom prostheses with ultra-short stems for restoring bone defects and maintaining arthrosis in malignant bone tumors of lower extremities in children. Methods: Seven cases of pediatric patients were included in this study. In all cases, the prostheses were porous titanium alloy with ultra-short stems. MSTS 93 (Musculoskeletal Tumor Society) scores were recorded for the functional recovery of the limbs. VAS (Visual analogue scale) scores were utilized to assess the degree of painfulness for the patients. X-ray and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) were applied to evaluate the bone integration, prostheses aseptic loosening, prostheses fracture, wound healing, and tumor recurrence during follow-up. Results: During follow-up, none of the patients developed any postoperative complications, including prostheses aseptic loosening, prostheses fracture, or tumor recurrence. Radiological examinations during the follow-up showed that prostheses implanted into the residual bone were stably fitted and bone defects were effectively reconstructed. The MSTS 93 scores were 24.9 ± 2.9 (20-28). VAS scores were decreased to 5.8 ± 1.2 (4.0-7.0). No statistically significant differences in leg length discrepancy were observed at the time of the last follow-up. Conclusion: 3D-printing technology can be effectively applied throughout the entire surgical treatment procedures of malignant bone tumors, offering stable foundations for the initial stability of 3D-printed prostheses with ultra-short stems through preoperative design, intraoperative precision operation, and personalized prosthesis matching. With meticulous postoperative follow-up, close monitoring of postoperative complications was ensured. These favorable outcomes indicate that the utilization of 3D-printed custom prostheses with ultra-short stems is a viable alternative for reconstructing bone defects. However, further investigation is warranted to determine the long-term effectiveness of the 3D-printing technique.

Abstract
3D printing technology offers extensive applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) because it can create a three-dimensional porous structure with acceptable porosity and fine mechanical qualities that can mimic natural bone. Hydroxyapatite (HA) is commonly used as a bone repair material due to its excellent biocompatibility and osteoconductivity. Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can regulate bone metabolism and stimulate the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. This study has designed a functionalized bone regeneration scaffold (3D H-P-sEVs) by combining the biological activity of BMSCs-sEVs and the 3D-HA scaffold to improve bone regeneration. The scaffold utilizes the targeting of fusion peptides to increase the loading efficiency of sEVs. The composition, structure, mechanical properties, and in vitro degradation performance of the 3D H-P-sEVs scaffolds were examined. The composite scaffold demonstrated good biocompatibility, substantially increased the expression of osteogenic-related genes and proteins, and had a satisfactory bone integration effect in the critical skull defect model of rats. In conclusion, the combination of EVs and 3D-HA scaffold via fusion peptide provides an innovative composite scaffold for bone regeneration and repair, improving osteogenic performance.

Abstract
Objective: To explore and construct a 3D bone remodeling research model displaying stability, repeatability, and precise simulation of the physiological and biochemical environment in vivo. Methods: In this study, 3D bioprinting was used to construct a bone reconstruction model. Sodium alginate (SA), hydroxyapatite (HA) and gelatin (Gel) were mixed into hydrogel as scaffold material. The osteoblast precursor cells MC3T3-E1 and osteoclast precursor cells RAW264.7 were used as seed cells, which may or may not be separated by polycarbonate membrane. The cytokines osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) were used to induce cell differentiation. The function of scaffolds in the process of bone remodeling was analyzed by detecting the related markers of osteoblasts (alkaline phosphatase, ALP) and osteoclasts (tartrate resistant acid phosphatase, TRAP). Results: The scaffold showed good biocompatibility and low toxicity. The surface morphology aided cell adhesion and growth. The scaffold had optimum degradability, water absorption capacity and porosity, which are in line with the conditions of biological experiments. The effect of induced differentiation of cells was the best when cultured alone. After direct contact between the two types of cells at 2D or 3D level, the induced differentiation of cells was inhibited to varying degrees, although they still showed osteogenesis and osteoclast. After the cells were induced by indirect contact culture, the effect of induced differentiation improved when compared with direct contact culture, although it was still not as good as that of single culture. On the whole, the effect of inducing differentiation at 3D level was the same as that at 2D level, and its relative gene expression and enzyme activity were higher than that in the control group. Hence the scaffold used in this study could induce osteogenesis as well as osteoclast, thereby rendering it more effective in inducing new bone formation. Conclusion: This method can be used to construct the model of 3D bone remodeling mechanism.

Abstract
Bone defects are often difficult to treat due to their complexity and specificity, and therefore pose a serious threat to human life and health. Currently, the clinical treatment of bone defects is mainly surgical. However, this treatment is often more harmful to patients and there is a potential risk of rejection and infection. Hydrogels have a unique three-dimensional structure that can accommodate a variety of materials, including particles, polymers and small molecules, making them ideal for treating bone defects. Therefore, emerging composite hydrogels are considered one of the most promising candidates for the treatment of bone defects. This review describes the use of different types of composite hydrogel in the treatment of bone defects. We present the basic concepts of hydrogels, different preparation techniques (including chemical and physical crosslinking), and the clinical requirements for hydrogels used to treat bone defects. In addition, a review of numerous promising designs of different types of hydrogel doped with different materials (e.g., nanoparticles, polymers, carbon materials, drugs, and active factors) is also highlighted. Finally, the current challenges and prospects of composite hydrogels for the treatment of bone defects are presented. This review will stimulate research efforts in this field and promote the application of new methods and innovative ideas in the clinical field of composite hydrogels.

Abstract
The number of patients with bone defects caused by trauma, bone tumors, and osteoporosis has increased considerably. The repair of irregular, recurring, and large bone defects poses a great challenge to clinicians. Bone tissue engineering is emerging as an appropriate strategy to replace autologous bone grafting in the repair of critically sized bone defects. However, the suitability of bone tissue engineering scaffolds in terms of structure, mechanics, degradation, and the microenvironment is inadequate. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an advanced additive-manufacturing technology widely used for bone repair. 3D printing constructs personalized structurally adapted scaffolds based on 3D models reconstructed from CT images. The contradiction between the mechanics and degradation is resolved by altering the stacking structure. The local microenvironment of the implant is improved by designing an internal pore structure and a spatiotemporal factor release system. Therefore, there has been a boom in the 3D printing of personalized bone repair scaffolds. In this review, successful research on the preparation of highly bioadaptive bone tissue engineering scaffolds using 3D printing is presented. The mechanisms of structural, mechanical, degradation, and microenvironmental adaptations of bone prostheses and their interactions were elucidated to provide a feasible strategy for constructing highly bioadaptive bone tissue engineering scaffolds.

Abstract
Bifunctional tissue engineering constructs promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis are essential for bone regeneration. Metal ion-incorporated scaffolds and fibrin encapsulation attract much attention due to low cost, nontoxicity, and tunable control over ion and growth factor release. Herein, we investigated the effect of Cu.nHA/Cs/Gel scaffold and fibrin encapsulation on osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation of Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJMSCs) in vitro and in vivo. Cu-laden scaffolds were synthesized using salt leaching/freeze drying and were characterized using standard techniques. WJMSCs were isolated from the human umbilical cord and characterized. WJMSCs with or without encapsulating in fibrin were seeded onto scaffolds, followed by differentiating into the osteogenic lineage for 7 and 21 days. Osteogenic and angiogenic differentiation were evaluated using real-time polymerase chain reaction, western blot, and Alizarin red staining. Then, scaffolds were implanted into critical-sized calvarial bone defects in rats and histological assessments were performed using hematoxylin/eosin, Masson's trichrome, and CD31 immunohistochemical staining at 4 and 12 weeks. The scaffolds had good physicochemical and biological characteristics suitable for cell attachment and growth. Cu and fibrin increased the expression of ALP, RUNX2, OCN, COLI, VEGF, and HIF1α in differentiated WJMSCs. Implanted scaffolds were also biocompatible and were integrated well with the host tissue. Increased collagen condensation, mineralization, and blood vessel formation were observed in Cu-laden scaffolds. The fibrin-encapsulated groups showed the highest collagen and cell densities, immune cell infiltration, and bone trabeculae. CD31-positive cell population increased with fibrin encapsulation and seeding onto Cu-laden scaffolds. Adding Cu to scaffolds and encapsulating cells in fibrin are promising methods that guide osteogenesis and angiogenesis cellular signaling, leading to better bone regeneration.

Abstract
Bone tissue has the capacity to regenerate under healthy conditions, but complex cases like critically sized defects hinder natural bone regeneration, necessitating surgery, and use of a grafting material for rehabilitation. The field of bone tissue engineering (BTE) has pioneered ways to address such issues utilizing different biomaterials to create a platform for cell migration and tissue formation, leading to improved bone reconstruction. One such approach involves 3D-printed patient-specific scaffolds designed to aid in regeneration of boney defects. This study aimed to develop and characterize 3D printed scaffolds composed of type I collagen augmented with β-tricalcium phosphate (COL/β-TCP). A custom-built direct inkjet write (DIW) printer was used to fabricate β-TCP, COL, and COL/β-TCP scaffolds using synthesized colloidal gels. After chemical crosslinking, the scaffolds were lyophilized and subjected to several characterization techniques, including light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray diffraction to evaluate morphological and chemical properties. In vitro evaluation was performed using human osteoprogenitor cells to assess cytotoxicity and proliferative capacity of the different scaffold types. Characterization results confirmed the presence of β-TCP in the 3D printed COL/β-TCP scaffolds, which exhibited crystals that were attributed to β-TCP due to the presence of calcium and phosphorus, detected through energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. In vitro studies showed that the COL/β-TCP scaffolds yielded more favorable results in terms of cell viability and proliferation compared to β-TCP and COL scaffolds. The novel COL/β-TCP scaffold constructs hold promise for improving BTE applications and may offer a superior environment for bone regeneration compared with conventional COL and β-TCP scaffolds.

Abstract
The conventional approach for addressing bone defects and stubborn non-unions typically involves the use of autogenous bone grafts. Nevertheless, obtaining these grafts can be challenging, and the procedure can lead to significant morbidity. Three primary treatment strategies for managing bone defects and non-unions prove resistant to conventional treatments: synthetic bone graft substitutes (BGS), a combination of BGS with bioactive molecules, and the use of BGS in conjunction with stem cells. In the realm of synthetic BGS, a multitude of biomaterials have emerged for creating scaffolds in bone tissue engineering (TE). These materials encompass biometals like titanium, iron, magnesium, and zinc, as well as bioceramics such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP). Bone TE scaffolds serve as temporary implants, fostering tissue ingrowth and the regeneration of new bone. They are meticulously designed to enhance bone healing by optimizing geometric, mechanical, and biological properties. These scaffolds undergo continual remodeling facilitated by bone cells like osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Through various signaling pathways, stem cells and bone cells work together to regulate bone regeneration when a portion of bone is damaged or deformed. By targeting signaling pathways, bone TE can improve bone defects through effective therapies. This review provided insights into the interplay between cells and the current state of bioceramics in the context of bone regeneration.

Abstract
Malignant bone tumors are characterized by severe disability rate, mortality rate, and heavy recurrence rate owing to the complex pathogenesis and insidious disease progression, which seriously affect the terminal quality of patients' lives. Photothermal therapy (PTT) has emerged as an attractive adjunctive treatment offering prominent hyperthermal therapeutic effects to enhance the effectiveness of surgical treatment and avoid recurrence. Simultaneously, various advanced biomaterials with photothermal capacity are currently created to address malignant bone tumors, performing distinctive biological functions, including nanomaterials, bioceramics (BC), polymers, and hydrogels et al. Furthermore, PTT-related combination therapeutic strategies can provide more significant curative benefits by reducing drug toxicity, improving tumor-killing efficiency, stimulating anti-cancer immunity, and improving immune sensitivity relative to monotherapy, even in complex tumor microenvironments (TME). This review summarizes the current advanced biomaterials applicable in PTT and relevant combination therapies on malignant bone tumors for the first time. The multiple choices of advanced biomaterials, treatment methods, and new prospects for future research in treating malignant bone tumors with PTT are generalized to provide guidance.

Abstract
Clinical treatment strategies for musculoskeletal disorders have been a hot research topic. Accumulating evidence suggests that hydrogels loaded with MSC-derived EVs show great potential in improving musculoskeletal injuries. The ideal hydrogels should be capable of promoting the development of new tissues and simulating the characteristics of target tissues, with the properties matching the cell-matrix constituents of autologous tissues. Although there have been numerous reports of hydrogels loaded with MSC-derived EVs for the repair of musculoskeletal injuries, such as intervertebral disc injury, tendinopathy, bone fractures, and cartilage injuries, there are still many hurdles to overcome before the clinical application of modified hydrogels. In this review, we focus on the advantages of the isolation technique of EVs in combination with different types of hydrogels. In this context, the efficacy of hydrogels loaded with MSC-derived EVs in different musculoskeletal injuries is discussed in detail to provide a reference for the future application of hydrogels loaded with MSC-derived EVs in the clinical treatment of musculoskeletal injuries.

Abstract
There are still limitations in artificial bone materials used in clinical practice, such as difficulty in repairing large bone defects, the mismatch between the degradation rate and tissue growth, difficulty in vascularization, an inability to address bone defects of various shapes, and risk of infection. To solve these problems, our group designed stereolithography (SLA) 3D-printed calcium silicate artificial bone improved by a calcium sulfate-Cu2+ delivery system. SLA technology endows the scaffold with a three-dimensional tunnel structure to induce cell migration to the center of the bone defect. The calcium sulfate-Cu2+ delivery system was introduced to enhance the osteogenic activity of calcium silicate. Rapid degradation of calcium sulfate (CS) induces early osteogenesis in the three-dimensional tunnel structure. Calcium silicate (CSi) which degrades slowly provides mechanical support and promotes bone formation in bone defect sites for a long time. The gradient degradation of these two components is perfectly matched to the rate of repair in large bone defects. On the other hand, the calcium sulfate delivery system can regularly release Cu2+ in the temporal and spatial dimensions, exerting a long-lasting antimicrobial effect and promoting vascular growth. This powerful 3D-printed calcium silicate artificial bone which has rich osteogenic activity is a promising material for treating large bone defects and has excellent potential for clinical application.

Abstract
In the advancing landscape of technology and novel material development, additive manufacturing (AM) is steadily making strides within the biomedical sector. Moving away from traditional, one-size-fits-all implant solutions, the advent of AM technology allows for patient-specific scaffolds that could improve integration and enhance wound healing. These scaffolds, meticulously designed with a myriad of geometries, mechanical properties, and biological responses, are made possible through the vast selection of materials and fabrication methods at our disposal. Recognizing the importance of precision in the treatment of bone defects, which display variability from macroscopic to microscopic scales in each case, a tailored treatment strategy is required. A patient-specific AM bone scaffold perfectly addresses this necessity. This review elucidates the pivotal role that customized AM bone scaffolds play in bone defect treatment, while offering comprehensive guidelines for their customization. This includes aspects such as bone defect imaging, material selection, topography design, and fabrication methodology. Additionally, we propose a cooperative model involving the patient, clinician, and engineer, thereby underscoring the interdisciplinary approach necessary for the effective design and clinical application of these customized AM bone scaffolds. This collaboration promises to usher in a new era of bioactive medical materials, responsive to individualized needs and capable of pushing boundaries in personalized medicine beyond those set by traditional medical materials.

Abstract
Cell migration is an essential bioactive ceramics property and critical for bone induction, clinical application, and mechanism research. Standardized cell migration detection methods have many limitations, including a lack of dynamic fluid circulation and the inability to simulate cell behavior in vivo. Microfluidic chip technology, which mimics the human microenvironment and provides controlled dynamic fluid cycling, has the potential to solve these questions and generate reliable models of cell migration in vitro. In this study, a microfluidic chip is reconstructed to integrate the bioactive ceramic into the microfluidic chip structure to constitute a ceramic microbridge microfluidic chip system. Migration differences in the chip system are measured. By combining conventional detection methods with new biotechnology to analyze the causes of cell migration differences, it is found that the concentration gradients of ions and proteins adsorbed on the microbridge materials are directly related to the occurrence of cell migration behavior, which is consistent with previous reports and demonstrates the effectiveness of the microfluidic chip model. This model provides in vivo environment simulation and controllability of input and output conditions superior to standardized cell migration detection methods. The microfluidic chip system provides a new approach to studying and evaluating bioactive ceramics.

Injectable periodontal ligament stem cell-metformin-calcium phosphate scaffold for bone regeneration and vascularization in rats. Dent Mater 2023; 39:872-885. [PMID: 37574338 DOI: 10.1016/j.dental.2023.07.008] [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: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Injectable and self-setting calcium phosphate cement scaffold (CPC) capable of encapsulating and delivering stem cells and bioactive agents would be highly beneficial for dental and craniofacial repairs. The objectives of this study were to: (1) develop a novel injectable CPC scaffold encapsulating human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and metformin (Met) for bone engineering; (2) test bone regeneration efficacy in vitro and in vivo. METHODS hPDLSCs were encapsulated in degradable alginate fibers, which were then mixed into CPC paste. Five groups were tested: (1) CPC control; (2) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0%Met); (3) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0.1% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0.1%Met); (4) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0.2% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0.2%Met); (5) CPC + hPDLSC-fibers + 0.4% Met (CPC + hPDLSCs + 0.4%Met). The injectability, mechanical properties, metformin release, and hPDLSC osteogenic differentiation and bone mineral were determined in vitro. A rat cranial defect model was used to evaluate new bone formation. RESULTS The novel construct had good injectability and physical properties. Alginate fibers degraded in 7 days and released hPDLSCs, with 5-fold increase of proliferation (p<0.05). The ALP activity and mineral synthesis of hPDLSCs were increased by Met delivery (p<0.05). Among all groups, CPC+hPDLSCs+ 0.1%Met showed the greatest cell mineralization and osteogenesis, which were 1.5-10 folds those without Met (p<0.05). Compared to CPC control, CPC+hPDLSCs+ 0.1%Met enhanced bone regeneration in rats by 9 folds, and increased vascularization by 3 folds (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The novel injectable construct with hPDLSC and Met encapsulation demonstrated excellent efficacy for bone regeneration and vascularization in vivo in an animal model. CPC+hPDLSCs+ 0.1%Met is highly promising for dental and craniofacial applications.

Abstract
Limitations associated with conventional bone substitutes such as autografts, increasing demand for bone grafts, and growing elderly population worldwide necessitate development of unique materials as bone graft substitutes. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) would ensure therapy advancement, efficiency, and cost-effective treatment modalities of bone defects. One way of engineering bone tissue scaffolds by mimicking natural bone tissue composed of organic and inorganic phases is to utilize polysaccharide-bioceramic hybrid composites. Polysaccharides are abundant in nature, and present in human body. Biominerals, like hydroxyapatite are present in natural bone and some of them possess osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. Ion doped bioceramics could substitute protein-based biosignal molecules to achieve osteogenesis, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, and stress shielding. This review is a systemic summary on properties, advantages, and limitations of polysaccharide-bioceramic/ion doped bioceramic composites along with their recent advancements in BTE.

Abstract
The journey of ceramics in medicine has been synchronized with an evolution from the first generation-alumina, zirconia, etc.-to the third -3D scaffolds. There is an up-and-coming member called oxygen-deficient or colored bioceramics, which have recently found their way through biomedical applications. The oxygen vacancy steers the light absorption toward visible and near infrared regions, making the colored bioceramics multifunctional-therapeutic, diagnostic, and regenerative. Oxygen-deficient bioceramics are capable of turning light into heat and reactive oxygen species for photothermal and photodynamic therapies, respectively, and concomitantly yield infrared and photoacoustic images. Different types of oxygen-deficient bioceramics have been recently developed through various synthesis routes. Some of them like TiO2- x , MoO3- x , and WOx have been more investigated for biomedical applications, whereas the rest have yet to be scrutinized. The most prominent advantage of these bioceramics over the other biomaterials is their multifunctionality endowed with a change in the microstructure. There are some challenges ahead of this category discussed at the end of the present review. By shedding light on this recently born bioceramics subcategory, it is believed that the field will undergo a big step further as these platforms are naturally multifunctional.

Abstract
Rehabilitative capabilities of any tissue engineered scaffold rely primarily on the triad of (i) biomechanical properties such as mechanical properties and architecture, (ii) chemical behavior such as regulation of cytokine expression, and (iii) cellular response modulation (including their recruitment and differentiation). The closer the implant can mimic the native tissue, the better it can rehabilitate the damage therein. Among the available fabrication techniques, only 3D bioprinting (3DBP) can satisfactorily replicate the inherent heterogeneity of the host tissue. However, 3DBP scaffolds typically suffer from poor mechanical properties, thereby, driving the increased research interest in development of load-bearing 3DBP orthopedic scaffolds in recent years. Typically, these scaffolds involve multi-material 3D printing, comprising of at-least one bioink and a load-bearing ink; such that mechanical and biological requirements of the biomaterials are decoupled. Ensuring high cellular survivability and good mechanical properties are of key concerns in all these studies. 3DBP of such scaffolds is in early developmental stages, and research data from only a handful of preliminary animal studies are available, owing to limitations in print-capabilities and restrictive materials library. This article presents a topically focused review of the state-of-the-art, while highlighting aspects like available 3DBP techniques; biomaterials' printability; mechanical and degradation behavior; and their overall bone-tissue rehabilitative efficacy. This collection amalgamates and critically analyses the research aimed at 3DBP of load-bearing scaffolds for fulfilling demands of personalized-medicine. We highlight the recent-advances in 3DBP techniques employing thermoplastics and phosphate-cements for load-bearing applications. Finally, we provide an outlook for possible future perspectives of 3DBP for load-bearing orthopedic applications. Overall, the article creates ample foundation for future research, as it gathers the latest and ongoing research that scientists could utilize.

Abstract
Critical-sized bone defects resulting from trauma, inflammation, and tumor resections are individual in their size and shape. Implants for the treatment of such defects have to consider biomechanical and biomedical factors, as well as the individual conditions within the implantation site. In this context, 3D printing technologies offer new possibilities to design and produce patient-specific implants reflecting the outer shape and internal structure of the replaced bone tissue. The selection or modification of materials used in 3D printing enables the adaption of the implant, by enhancing the osteoinductive or biomechanical properties. In this study, scaffolds with bone spongiosa-inspired structure for extrusion-based 3D printing were generated. The computer aided design process resulted in an up scaled and simplified version of the bone spongiosa. To enhance the osteoinductive properties of the 3D printed construct, polycaprolactone (PCL) was combined with 20% (wt) calcium phosphate nano powder (CaP). The implants were designed in form of a ring structure and revealed an irregular and interconnected porous structure with a calculated porosity of 35.2% and a compression strength within the range of the natural cancellous bone. The implants were assessed in terms of biocompatibility and osteoinductivity using the osteosarcoma cell line MG63 and patient-derived mesenchymal stem cells in selected experiments. Cell growth and differentiation over 14 days were monitored using confocal laser scanning microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) quantification, gene expression analysis, and quantitative assessment of calcification. MG63 cells and human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) adhered to the printed implants and revealed a typical elongated morphology as indicated by microscopy. Using DNA quantification, no differences for PCL or PCL-CaP in the initial adhesion of MG63 cells were observed, while the PCL-based scaffolds favored cell proliferation in the early phases of culture up to 7 days. In contrast, on PCL-CaP, cell proliferation for MG63 cells was not evident, while data from PCR and the levels of calcification, or alkaline phosphatase activity, indicated osteogenic differentiation within the PCL-CaP constructs over time. For hMSC, the highest levels in the total calcium content were observed for the PCL-CaP constructs, thus underlining the osteoinductive properties.

Abstract
Clinical treatment of osteosarcoma encounters great challenges of postsurgical tumor recurrence and extensive bone defect. To develop an advanced artificial bone substitute that can achieve synergistic bone regeneration and tumor therapy for osteosarcoma treatment, a multifunctional calcium phosphate composite enabled by incorporation of bioactive FePSe3 -nanosheets within the cryogenic-3D-printed α-tricalcium phosphate scaffold (TCP-FePSe3 ) is explored. The TCP-FePSe3 scaffold exhibits remarkable tumor ablation ability due to the excellent NIR-II (1064 nm) photothermal property of FePSe3 -nanosheets. Moreover, the biodegradable TCP-FePSe3 scaffold can release selenium element to suppress tumor recurrence by activating of the caspase-dependent apoptosis pathway. In a subcutaneous tumor model, it is demonstrated that tumors can be efficiently eradicated via the combination treatment with local photothermal ablation and the antitumor effect of selenium element. Meanwhile, in a rat calvarial bone defect model, the superior angiogenesis and osteogenesis induced by TCP-FePSe3 scaffold have been observed in vivo. The TCP-FePSe3 scaffold possesses improved capability to promote the repair of bone defects via vascularized bone regeneration, which is induced by the bioactive ions of Fe, Ca, and P released during the biodegradation of the implanted scaffolds. The TCP-FePSe3 composite scaffolds fabricated by cryogenic-3D-printing illustrate a distinctive strategy to construct multifunctional platform for osteosarcoma treatment.

Abstract
Surgical resection is the most common approach for the treatment of osteosarcoma. However, two major complications, including residual tumor cells and large bone defects, often arise from the surgical resection of osteosarcoma. Discovering new strategies for programmatically solving the two above-mentioned puzzles has become a worldwide challenge. Herein, a novel one-step strategy is reported for natural phenolic acid planted nanohybrids with desired physicochemical properties and steerable photothermal effects for efficacious osteosarcoma suppression and bone healing. Nanohybrids are prepared based on the self-assembly of chlorogenic acid and gold nanorods through robust Au-catechol interface actions, featuring precise nanostructures, great water solubility, good stability, and adjustable hyperthermia generating capacity. As expected, on the one hand, these integrated nanohybrids can severely trigger apoptosis and suppress tumor growth with strong hyperthermia. On the other hand, with controllable mild NIR irradiation, the nanohybrids promote the expression of heat shock proteins and induce prominent osteogenic differentiation. This work initiates a brand-new strategy for assisting osteosarcoma surgical excision to resolve the blockage of residual tumor cells elimination and bone regeneration.
