Abstract
Recent advances in scaffold-free three-dimensional (3D) culture methods have significantly enhanced the potential of stem cell-based therapies in regenerative medicine. This cutting-edge technology circumvents the use of exogenous biomaterial and prevents its associated complications. The 3D culture system preserves crucial intercellular interactions and extracellular matrix support, closely mimicking natural biological niches. Therefore, stem cells cultured in 3D formats exhibit distinct characteristics, showcasing their capabilities in promoting angiogenesis and immunomodulation. This review aims to elucidate foundational technologies and recent breakthroughs in 3D scaffold-free stem cell engineering, offering comprehensive guidance for researchers to advance this technology across various clinical applications. We first introduce the various sources of stem cells and provide a comparative analysis of two-dimensional (2D) and 3D culture systems. Given the advantages of 3D culture systems, we delve into the specific fabrication and harvesting techniques for cell sheets and spheroids. Furthermore, we explore their applications in pre-clinical studies, particularly in large animal models and clinical trials. We also discuss multidisciplinary strategies to overcome existing limitations such as insufficient efficacy, hostile microenvironments, and the need for scalability and standardization of stem cell-based products.

Abstract
Skin has strong self-regenerative capacity, while severe skin defects do not heal without appropriate treatment. Therefore, in order to cover the wound sites and hasten the healing process, wound dressings are required. Hydrogels have emerged as one of the most promising candidates for wound dressings because of their hydrated and porous molecular structure. Chitosan (CS) with biocompatibility, oxygen permeability, hemostatic and antimicrobial properties is beneficial for wound treatment and it can generate self-healing hydrogels through reversible crosslinks, from dynamic covalent bonding, such as Schiff base bonds, boronate esters, and acylhydrazone bonds, to physical interactions like hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interaction, ionic bonding, metal-coordination, host-guest interactions, and hydrophobic interaction. Therefore, various chitosan-based self-healing hydrogel dressings have been prepared in recent years to cope with increasingly complex wound conditions. This review's objective is to provide comprehensive information on the self-healing mechanism of chitosan-based hydrogel wound dressings, discuss their advanced functions including antibacterial, conductive, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, stimulus-responsive, hemostatic/adhesive and controlled release properties, further introduce their applications in the promotion of wound healing in two categories: acute and chronic (infected, burn and diabetic) wounds, and finally discuss the future perspective of chitosan-based self-healing hydrogel dressings for wound healing.

Abstract
Preventing the recurrence of melanoma after surgery and accelerating wound healing are among the most challenging aspects of melanoma management. Photothermal therapy has been widely used to treat tumors and bacterial infections and promote wound healing. Owing to its efficacy and specificity, it may be used for postoperative management of tumors. However, its use is limited by the uncontrollable distribution of photosensitizers and the likelihood of damage to the surrounding normal tissue. Hydrogels provide a moist environment with strong biocompatibility and adhesion for wound healing owing to their highly hydrophilic three-dimensional network structure. In addition, these materials serve as excellent drug carriers for tumor treatment and wound healing. It is possible to combine the advantages of both of these agents through different loading modalities to provide a powerful platform for the prevention of tumor recurrence and wound healing. This review summarizes the design strategies, research progress and mechanism of action of hydrogels used in photothermal therapy and discusses their role in preventing tumor recurrence and accelerating wound healing. These findings provide valuable insights into the postoperative management of melanoma and may guide the development of promising multifunctional hydrogels for photothermal therapy.

Abstract
The skin is the largest organ of the body, and it acts as a protective barrier against external factors. Chronic wounds affect millions of people worldwide and are associated with significant morbidity and reduced quality of life. One of the main factors involved in delayed wound healing is oxidative injury, which is triggered by the overproduction of reactive oxygen species. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic wounds, where it is known to impair wound healing by causing damage to cellular components, delaying the inflammatory phase of healing, and inhibiting the formation of new blood vessels. Thereby, the treatment of chronic wounds requires a multidisciplinary approach that addresses the underlying causes of the wound, provides optimal wound care, and promotes wound healing. Among the promising approaches to taking care of chronic wounds, antioxidants are gaining interest since they offer multiple benefits related to skin health. Therefore, in this review, we will highlight the latest advances in the use of natural polymers with antioxidants to generate tissue regeneration microenvironments for skin wound healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Insufficient angiogenesis and the lack of skin appendages are critical challenges in cutaneous wound healing. Stem cell-fabricated cell sheets have become a promising strategy, but cell sheets constructed by a single cell type are inadequate to provide a comprehensive proregenerative microenvironment for wound tissue. METHODS Based on the communication between cells, in this study, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) were cocultured to fabricate a composite cell sheet (H/M-CS) for the treatment of full-thickness skin wounds in mice. RESULTS Experiments confirmed that there is cell-cell communication between BMSCs and HFSCs, which enhances the cell proliferation and migration abilities of both cell types. Cell-cell talk also upregulates the gene expression of pro-angiogenic-related cytokines in BMSCs and pro-hair follicle-related cytokines in HFSCs, as well as causing changes in the properties of secreted extracellular matrix components. CONCLUSIONS Therefore, the composite cell sheet is more conducive for cutaneous wound healing and promoting the regeneration of blood vessels and hair follicles.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been recognized as a cell therapy with the potential to promote skin healing. MSCs, with their multipotent differentiation ability, can generate various cells related to wound healing, such as dermal fibroblasts (DFs), endothelial cells, and keratinocytes. In addition, MSCs promote neovascularization, cellular regeneration, and tissue healing through mechanisms including paracrine and autocrine signaling. Due to these characteristics, MSCs have been extensively studied in the context of burn healing and chronic wound repair. Furthermore, during the investigation of MSCs, their unique roles in skin aging and scarless healing have also been discovered. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms by which MSCs promote wound healing and discuss the recent findings from preclinical and clinical studies. We also explore strategies to enhance the therapeutic effects of MSCs. Moreover, we discuss the emerging trend of combining MSCs with tissue engineering techniques, leveraging the advantages of MSCs and tissue engineering materials, such as biodegradable scaffolds and hydrogels, to enhance the skin repair capacity of MSCs. Additionally, we highlight the potential of using paracrine and autocrine characteristics of MSCs to explore cell-free therapies as a future direction in stem cell-based treatments, further demonstrating the clinical and regenerative aesthetic applications of MSCs in skin repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Cell sheet technology has emerged as a novel scaffold-free approach for cell-based therapies in regenerative medicine. Techniques for harvesting cell sheets are essential to preserve the integrity of living cell sheets. This review provides an overview of fundamental technologies to fabricate cell sheets and recent advances in cell sheet-based tissue engineering. In addition to the commonly used temperature-responsive systems, we introduce alternative approaches, such as ROS-induced, magnetic-controlled, and light-induced cell sheet technologies. Moreover, we discuss the modification of the cell sheet to improve its function, including stacking, genetic modification, and vascularization. With the significant advances in cell sheet technology, cell sheets have been widely applied in various tissues and organs, including but not limited to the lung, cornea, cartilage, periodontium, heart, and liver. This review further describes both the preclinical and clinical applications of cell sheets. We believe that the progress in cell sheet technology would further propel its biomedical applications.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is characterized by an increase in reactive oxygen species or a decrease in antioxidants in the body. This imbalance leads to detrimental effects, including inflammation and multiple chronic diseases, ranging from impaired wound healing to highly impacting pathologies in the neural and cardiovascular systems, or the bone, amongst others. However, supplying compounds with antioxidant activity is hampered by their low bioavailability. The development of biomaterials with antioxidant capacity is poised to overcome this roadblock. Moreover, in the treatment of chronic inflammation, material-based strategies would allow the controlled and targeted release of antioxidants into the affected tissue. In this review, we revise the main causes and effects of oxidative stress, and survey antioxidant biomaterials used for the treatment of chronic wounds, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases (focusing on cardiac infarction, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and atherosclerosis) and osteoporosis. We anticipate that these developments will lead to the emergence of new technologies for tissue engineering, control of oxidative stress and prevention of diseases associated with oxidative stress.

Abstract
The intricate healing process of skin wounds includes a variety of cellular and molecular events. Wound healing heavily relies on reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are essential for controlling various processes, including inflammation, cell growth, angiogenesis, granulation, and the formation of extracellular matrix. Nevertheless, an overabundance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by extended oxidative pressure may result in the postponement or failure of wound healing. It is crucial to comprehend the function of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and create biomaterials that efficiently eliminate ROS to enhance the healing process of skin wounds. In this study, a thorough examination is presented on the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the process of wound healing, along with an exploration of the existing knowledge regarding biomaterials employed for ROS elimination. In addition, the article covers different techniques and substances used in the management of skin wound. The future prospects and clinical applications of enhanced biomaterials are also emphasized, highlighting the potential of biomaterials that scavenge active oxygen to promote skin repair. This article seeks to enhance the understanding of the complex processes of ROS in the healing of wounds and the application of ROS-scavenging materials. Its objective is to create novel strategies for effective treatment skin wounds.

Abstract
The long-term success rate of dental implants can be improved by establishing a favorable biological sealing with a high-quality epithelial attachment. The application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) holds promise for facilitating the soft tissue integration around implants, but the molecular mechanism is still unclear and the general application of MSC sheet for soft tissue integration is also relatively unexplored. We found that gingival tissue-derived MSC (GMSC) sheet treatment significantly promoted the expression of hemidesmosome (HD)-related genes and proteins in gingival epithelial cells (GECs). The formation of HDs played a key role in strengthening peri-implant epithelium (PIE) sealing. Further, high-throughput transcriptome sequencing showed that GMSC sheet significantly upregulated the PI3K/AKT pathway, confirming that cell adhesion and HD expression in GECs were regulated by GMSC sheet. We observed that the expression of transcription factor CREB3L2 in GECs was downregulated. After treatment with PI3K pathway inhibitor LY294002, CREB3L2 messenger RNA and protein expression levels were upregulated. Further experiments showed that overexpression or knockdown of CREB3L2 could significantly inhibit or promote HD-related genes and proteins, respectively. We confirmed that CREB3L2 was a transcription factor downstream of the PI3K/AKT pathway and participated in the formation of HDs regulated by GMSC sheet. Finally, through the establishment of early implant placement model in rats, we clarified the molecular function of CREB3L2 in PIE sealing as a mechanical transmission molecule in GECs. The application of GMSC sheet-implant complex could enhance the formation of HDs at the implant-PIE interface and decrease the penetration distance of horseradish peroxidase between the implant and PIE. Meanwhile, GMSC sheet reduced the length of CREB3L2 protein expression on PIE. These findings elucidate the potential function and molecular mechanism of MSC sheet regulating the epithelial sealing around implants, providing new insights and ideas for the application of stem cell therapy in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Chronic skin wound is a chronic illness that possesses a risk of infection and sepsis. In particular, infections associated with antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains are challenging to treat. To combat this challenge, a suitable alternative that is complementary to antibiotics is desired for wound healing. In this work, we report multi-functional nanoscale chitosan vesicles loaded with manganese (Chi-Mn) that has potential to serve as a new tool to augment traditional antibiotic treatment for skin wound healing. Chi-Mn showed antioxidant activity increase over time as well as antimicrobial activity against E. coli and P. aeruginosa PA01. The modified motility assay that mimicked a skin wound before bacterial colonization showed inhibition of bacterial growth with Chi-Mn treatment at a low area density of 0.04 µg of Mn per cm2. Furthermore, this study demonstrated the compatibility of Chi-Mn with a commercial antibiotic showing no loss of antimicrobial potency. In vitro cytotoxicity of Chi-Mn was assessed with macrophages and dermal cell lines (J774A.1 and HDF) elucidating biocompatibility at a wide range (2 ppm-256 ppm). A scratch wound assay involving human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells was performed to assess any negative effect of Chi-Mn on cell migration. Confocal microscopy study confirmed that Chi-Mn tested at the MIC (16 ppm Mn) has no effect on cell migration with respect to control. Overall, this study demonstrated the potential of Chi-Mn nanovesicles for wound healing applications.

Abstract
Diabetic ulcers (DUs) are one of the most serious complications of diabetes mellitus. The application of a functional dressing is a crucial step in DU treatment and is associated with the patient's recovery and prognosis. However, traditional dressings with a simple structure and a single function cannot meet clinical requirements. Therefore, researchers have turned their attention to advanced polymer dressings and hydrogels to solve the therapeutic bottleneck of DU treatment. Hydrogels are a class of gels with a three-dimensional network structure that have good moisturizing properties and permeability and promote autolytic debridement and material exchange. Moreover, hydrogels mimic the natural environment of the extracellular matrix, providing suitable surroundings for cell proliferation. Thus, hydrogels with different mechanical strengths and biological properties have been extensively explored as DU dressing platforms. In this review, we define different types of hydrogels and elaborate the mechanisms by which they repair DUs. Moreover, we summarize the pathological process of DUs and review various additives used for their treatment. Finally, we examine the limitations and obstacles that exist in the development of the clinically relevant applications of these appealing technologies. This review defines different types of hydrogels and carefully elaborate the mechanisms by which they repair diabetic ulcers (DUs), summarizes the pathological process of DUs, and reviews various bioactivators used for their treatment.

Abstract
To enhance the bioactivity of cellulosic derivatives has become an important strategy to promote their value for clinical applications. Herein, protocatechualdehyde (PCA), a polyphenolic molecule, was used to modify a cellulose acetate (CA) membrane by combining with metal ions to confer an immunomodulatory activity. The PCA-modified CA membrane has shown a significant radical scavenging activity, thereby suppressed the inflammatory response and created a favorable immune microenvironment for osteogenesis and mineralization. Moreover, addition of metal ions could further stimulate the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells and accelerate bone regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. This study may provide a strategy to promote the immunomodulatory activity of cellulose-based biomaterials for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance of bacteria and persistent inflammation are critical challenges in treating bacteria infected wounds. Thus, it is urgent to develop versatile wound dressings that possess high-efficiency antibacterial performance and inflammation regulation. Herein, we have successfully constructed a hydrogel wound dressing consisting of the bimetallic metal-organic framework (MOF) loaded with glucose oxidase (GOx), termed as MOF(Fe-Cu)/GOx-polyacrylamide (PAM) gel. Hydrogel dressings can provide an efficient cascade-catalyzed system to accelerate wound healing via synergistic antibacterial and inflammatory modulation. Importantly, the catalytic property of the bimetallic MOF(Fe-Cu) is about five times that of the monometallic MOF(Fe). Based on such a cascade-catalyzed system, the abundant gluconic acid and H2O2 can be continuously produced by decomposing glucose via GOx. Such gluconic acid can notably improve the peroxidase performance of MOF(Fe-Cu), which can further efficiently decompose H2O2 to achieve the antibacterial. Meanwhile, MOF (Fe Cu)/GOx PAM gel can induce macrophages to change into an M2 phenotype, which can accelerate the transformation of the wound microenvironment to a remodeling state and then accelerate angiogenesis and neurogenesis. This work provides multifunctional bioactive materials for accelerating wound healing and will have great potential in clinical applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Antibiotic resistance and persistent inflammation are still the critical reasons for the slow healing of bacteria infected wounds. Herein, we prepared a hydrogel wound dressing composed of bimetallic metal organic framework (MOF) loaded with glucose oxidase (GOx). The catalytic activity of the bimetallic MOF(Fe-Cu) is significantly enhanced due to doping of copper, which makes it possess outstanding antibacterial ability based on cascade catalysis. Such dressing can promote the remodeling of inflammatory immunity by regulating macrophage polarization to suppress over-reactive inflammation, further accelerating the healing of bacteria-infected wounds. This study provides an innovative and effective way to accelerate the healing of bacteria infected wound by combining bacteria killing and inflammation modulation.

Abstract
In this research, we introduced a novel strategy for fabricating cell sheets (CSs) prepared by simply adding a fibrinogen solution to growth medium without using any synthetic polymers or chemical agents. We confirmed that the fibrinogen-based CS could be modified for target tissue regardless of size, shape, and cell types. Also, fibrinogen-based CSs were versatile and could be used to form three-dimensional (3D) CSs such as multi-layered CSs and those mimicking native blood vessels. We also prepared fibrinogen-based spheroid sheets for the treatment of ischemic disease. The fibrinogen-based spheroid sheets had much higherin vitrotubule formation and released more angiogenic factors compared to other types of platform in this research. We transplanted fibrinogen-based spheroid sheets into a mouse hindlimb ischemia model and found that fibrinogen-based spheroid sheets showed significantly improved physiological function and blood perfusion rates compared to the other types of platform in this research.

Abstract
When the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is overloaded surpassing the capacity of the reductive rheostat, mammalian cells undergo a series of oxidative damage termed oxidative stress (OS). This phenomenon is ubiquitously detected in many human pathological conditions. Wound healing program implicates continuous neovascularization, cell proliferation, and wound remodeling. Increasing evidence indicates that reactive oxygen species (ROS) have profound impacts on the wound healing process through regulating a series of the physiological and pathological program including inflammatory response, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, granulation as well as extracellular matrix formation. In most pathological wound healing processes, excessive ROS exerts a negative role on the wound healing process. Interestingly, the moderate increase of ROS levels is beneficial in killing bacteria at the wound site, which creates a sterile niche for revascularization. In this review, we discussed the physiological rhythms of wound healing and the role of ROS in this progress, aim to explore the potential manipulation of OS as a promising therapeutic avenue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To maintain and enhance the wound healing effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), a scaffold for hosting MSCs is needed, which ought to be completely biocompatible, durable, producible, and of human source. OBJECTIVE To build a cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) complex assembled by human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HuMSCs) and to investigate its clinical potentials in promoting wound healing. METHOD HuMSCs were isolated and expanded. When the cells of third passage reached confluency, ascorbic acid was added to stimulate the cells to deposit ECM where the cells grew in. Four weeks later, a cells-loaded ECM sheet was formed. The cell-ECM complex was observed under the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and subjected to histological studies. The supernatants were collected and the cell-ECM complex was harvested at different time points and processed for enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) and mRNA analysis. The in vivo experiments were performed by means of implanting the cell-ECM complex on the mice back for up to 6 months and the specimens were collected for histological studies. RESULTS After 4 weeks of cultivation with ascorbic stimulation, a sheet was formed which is mainly composed with HuMSCs, collagen and hyaluronic acid. The cell-ECM complex can sustain to certain tensile force. The mRNA and protein levels of vascular endothelial growth factor-α (VEGF-α), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), keratinocyte growth factor (KGF), and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) were remarkably increased compared to monolayer-cultured cells. The implanted cell-ECM complex on mice was still noticeable with host cells infiltration and vascularization on 6 months. CONCLUSION Our studies suggested that HuMSCs can be multi-cultivated through adding ascorbic stimulation and ECM containing collagen and hyaluronic acid were enriched around the cells which self-assembly formed a cell-ECM complex. Cell-ECM complex can improve growth factors secretion remarkably which means it may promote wound healing by paracrine.

Abstract
Bone defects that are congenital or the result of infection, malignancy, or trauma represent a challenge to the global healthcare system. To address this issue, multiple research groups have been developing novel cell sheet technology (CST)-based approaches to promote bone regeneration. These methods hold promise for use in regenerative medicine because they preserve cell-cell contacts, cell-extracellular matrix interactions, and the protein makeup of cell membranes. This review introduces the concept and preparation system of the cell sheet (CS), explores the application of CST in bone regeneration, highlights the current states of the bone regeneration via CST, and offers perspectives on the challenges and future research direction of translating current knowledge from the lab to the clinic.

Hosseini M, Dalley AJ, Shafiee A. Convergence of Biofabrication Technologies and Cell Therapies for Wound Healing. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14122749. [PMID: 36559242 PMCID: PMC9785239 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14122749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2022] [Revised: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 12/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cell therapy holds great promise for cutaneous wound treatment but presents practical and clinical challenges, mainly related to the lack of a supportive and inductive microenvironment for cells after transplantation. Main: This review delineates the challenges and opportunities in cell therapies for acute and chronic wounds and highlights the contribution of biofabricated matrices to skin reconstruction. The complexity of the wound healing process necessitates the development of matrices with properties comparable to the extracellular matrix in the skin for their structure and composition. Over recent years, emerging biofabrication technologies have shown a capacity for creating complex matrices. In cell therapy, multifunctional material-based matrices have benefits in enhancing cell retention and survival, reducing healing time, and preventing infection and cell transplant rejection. Additionally, they can improve the efficacy of cell therapy, owing to their potential to modulate cell behaviors and regulate spatiotemporal patterns of wound healing. CONCLUSION The ongoing development of biofabrication technologies promises to deliver material-based matrices that are rich in supportive, phenotype patterning cell niches and are robust enough to provide physical protection for the cells during implantation.

Abstract
In vitro cultured meat is an emerging area of research focus with an innovative approach through tissue engineering (i.e., cellular engineering) to meet the global food demand. The manufacturing of lab-cultivated meat is an innovative business that alleviates life-threatening environmental issues concerning public health and animal well-being on the global platform. There has been a noteworthy advancement in cultivating artificial meat, but still, there are numerous challenges that impede the swift headway of lab-grown meat production at a commercially large scale. In this review, we focus on the manufacturing of edible scaffolds for cultured meat production. In brief, first an introduction to cultivating artificial meat and its current scenario in the market is provided. Further, a discussion on the understanding of composition, cellular, and molecular communications in muscle tissue is presented, which are vital to scaling up the production of lab-grown meat. In continuation, the major components (e.g., cells, biomaterial scaffolds, and their manufacturing technologies, media, and potential bioreactors) for cultured meat production are conferred followed by a comprehensive discussion on the most recent advances in lab-cultured meat. Finally, existing challenges and opportunities including future research perspectives for scaling-up cultured meat production are discussed with conclusive interpretations.

Abstract
Preventing bacterial infections and accelerating wound closure are essential in the process of wound healing. Current wound dressings lack enough mechanical properties, self-healing ability, and tissue adhesiveness, and the bacterial killing also relies on the use of antibiotic drugs. Herein, a well-designed hybrid hydrogel dressing is constructed by simple copolymerization of acrylamide (AM), 3-acrylamido phenylboronic acid (AAPBA), chitosan (CS), and the nanoscale tannic acid (TA)/ferric ion (Fe3+) complex (TFe). The resulting hydrogel possesses lots of free catechol, phenylboronic acid, amine, and hydroxyl groups and contains many reversible and dynamic bonds such as multiple hydrogen bonds and boronate ester bonds, thereby showing satisfactory mechanical properties, fast self-healing ability, and desirable tissue-adhesive performance. Benefiting from the high photothermal conversion efficiency of the TFe, the hydrogel exhibits satisfactory antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Moreover, the embedded TFe also endows the hydrogel with good antioxidant activity, anti-inflammatory property, and cell proliferation to promote tissue regeneration. Remarkably, in vivo animal assays reveal that the hybrid hydrogel effectively eliminates biofilm bacteria in the wound sites and accelerates the healing process of infected wounds. Taken together, the developed versatile hydrogels overcome the shortcomings of traditional wound dressings and are expected to become potential antibacterial dressings for future biomedical applications.

Abstract
Wound healing is a dynamic physiological process, including three stages: inflammation, tissue formation, and remodeling. The quality of wound healing is affected by many topical and systemic factors, while any small factor may affect the process. Therefore, improving the quality of wound healing is a complex and arduous challenge. Photo-crosslinking reaction using visible light irradiation is a novel method for hydrogel preparation. Photo-crosslinking hydrogels can be controlled in time and space, and are not interfered by temperature conditions, which have been widely used in the fields of medicine and engineering. This review aims to summarize the application of photo-crosslinking hydrogels in improving the quality of wound healing, mainly including the material design, application mechanism, and effect of photo-crosslinking hydrogels applied in wound healing, followed by the applicable animal models for experimental research. Finally, this review analyzes the clinical application prospects of photo-crosslinking hydrogels in the field of wound healing.

Abstract
Scaffold-free in vitro organogenesis exploits the innate ability of cells to synthesise and deposit their own extracellular matrix to fabricate tissue-like assemblies. Unfortunately, cell-assembled tissue engineered concepts require prolonged ex vivo culture periods of very high cell numbers for the development of a borderline three-dimensional implantable device, which are associated with phenotypic drift and high manufacturing costs, thus, hindering their clinical translation and commercialisation. Herein, we report the accelerated (10 days) development of a truly three-dimensional (338.1 ± 42.9 μm) scaffold-free tissue equivalent that promotes fast wound healing and induces formation of neotissue composed of mature collagen fibres, using human adipose derived stem cells seeded at only 50,000 cells/cm2 on an poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-co-N-tert-butylacrylamide (PNIPAM86-NTBA14) temperature-responsive electrospun scaffold and grown under macromolecular crowding conditions (50 μg/ml carrageenan). Our data pave the path for a new era in scaffold-free regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Burn wounds are a devastating type of skin injury leading to severe impacts on both patients and the healthcare system. Current treatment methods are far from ideal, driving the need for tissue engineered solutions. Among various approaches, stem cell-based strategies are promising candidates for improving the treatment of burn wounds. A thorough search of the Embase, Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science databases was conducted to retrieve original research studies on stem cell-based tissue engineering treatments tested in preclinical models of burn wounds, published between January 2009 and June 2021. Of the 347 articles retrieved from the initial database search, 33 were eligible for inclusion in this review. The majority of studies used murine models with a xenogeneic graft, while a few used the porcine model. Thermal burn was the most commonly induced injury type, followed by surgical wound, and less commonly radiation burn. Most studies applied stem cell treatment immediately post-burn, with final endpoints ranging from 7 to 90 days. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) were the most common stem cell type used in the included studies. Stem cells from a variety of sources were used, most commonly from adipose tissue, bone marrow or umbilical cord, in conjunction with an extensive range of biomaterial scaffolds to treat the skin wounds. Overall, the studies showed favourable results of skin wound repair in animal models when stem cell-based tissue engineering treatments were applied, suggesting that such strategies hold promise as an improved therapy for burn wounds.

Abstract
Multifunctional hydrogel as a sealant or wound dressing with high adhesiveness and excellent antibacterial activity is highly desirable in clinical applications. In this contribution, one-step synthetic hydrogel based on quaternized chitosan (QCS), tannic acid (TA), and ferric iron (Fe(III)) is developed for skin incision closure and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)-infected wound healing. In this hydrogel system, the ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds between QCS and TA form the main backbone of hydrogel, the metal coordination bonds between TA and Fe(III) (catechol-Fe) endow hydrogel with excellent adhesiveness and (near-infrared light) NIR-responsive photothermal property, and these multiple dynamic physical crosslinks enable QCS/TA/Fe hydrogel with flexible self-healing ability and injectability. Moreover, QCS/TA/Fe hydrogel possesses superior antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hemostasis, and biocompatibility. Also, it is safe for vital organs. The data from the mouse skin incision model and infected full-thickness skin wound model presented the high wound closure effectiveness and acceleration of the wound healing process by this multifunctional hydrogel, highlighting its great potential in wound management.

Abstract
Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the injured skin may impede the wound repair and skin regeneration. Herein, we develop an injectable self-healing ceria-based nanocomposite hydrogel with ROS-scavenging activity to accelerate wound healing. The nanocomposite hydrogels were successfully prepared by coating cerium oxide nanorods with polyethylenimine and crosslinked with benzaldehyde-terminated F127 (F127-CHO) through the dynamic Schiff-base reaction (FVEC hydrogel). The results showed that the FVEC hydrogel possessed the good thermosensitivity, injectability, self-healing ability and ROS scavenging activity. The subcutaneous implantation experiments in mice confirmed that FVEC hydrogels are biocompatible and biodegradable in vivo. The full-thickness skin wound studies showed that FVEC hydrogel could significantly enhance the wound healing and epithelium regeneration with the formation of hair follicle and adipocyte tissue. This work provides a new strategy for the development of multifunctional Ce-based nanocomposite hydrogel for full-thickness skin wound healing and regeneration.

Abstract
Endometrial-related disorders including Asherman's syndrome, thin endometrium, pelvic organ prolapse, and cesarean scar pregnancies can be accompanied by different symptoms such as amenorrhea, infertility, abnormal placental implantation and recurrent miscarriage. Different methods have been introduced to overcome these problems such as surgery and hormonal therapy but none of them has shown promising outcomes. On the other hand, the development of novel regenerative therapeutic strategies has opened new avenues for the treatment of endometrial-related deficiencies. In this regard, different types of scaffolds, acellular matrices and also cell therapy with adult or stem cells have been investigated for the treatment of endometrial-related deficiencies. In this paper, we review the current status of cell-based endometrium regeneration using scaffold dependent and scaffold-free methods and future perspectives in this field. Moreover, we discuss the endometrial diseases that can be candidates for cell-based treatments. Also, the cells with the potential for endometrial regeneration are explained.

Abstract
Various stimuli have been applied to harvest complete cell sheets, including temperature, magnetic, pH, and electrical stimuli. Cell sheet technology is a convenient and efficient approach with beneficial effects for tissue regeneration and cell therapy. Lights of different wavelengths, such as ultraviolet (UV), visible light, and near infrared ray (NIR) light, were confirmed to aid in fabricating a cell sheet. Changes in the wettability, potential, or water content of the culturing surfaces that occur under light illumination induce conformational changes in the adhesive proteins or collagens, which then leads to cell sheet detachment. However, the current approaches face several limitations, as few standards for safe light illumination have been proposed to date, and require a careful control of the wavelength, power, and irradiation time. Future studies should aim at generating new materials for culturing and releasing cell sheets rapidly and effectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HuMSCs) injected directly have been proven effective for improving chronic wounds. However, HuMSCs largely die within 14 days. The aim of study is to establish a cellularly modified gelatin sponge and investigate its characteristics and clinical potential. METHODS HuMSCs were isolated, expanded and seeded in a poly-L-lysine (PLL)-coated gelatin sponge. Fabricated gelatin sponges were estimated through observation of morphological surface and ultrastructure, following confirmed by histology method. Supernatants were collected at different times for enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) to measure growth factors. The cell embedded gelatin sponges were implanted subcutaneously on the backs of mice and the samples were harvested and studied histologically. RESULTS HuMSCs gradually modified the gelatin sponge by depositing collagen and hyaluronic acid, and degrading the structure of gelatin, resulting in a dense, and elastic structure. Compared with cells cultured in monolayer, the levels of growth factors increased remarkably when HuMSCs were cultivated in the gelatin sponge. Upon subcutaneous implantation in the backs of mice, the cellularized gelatin sponges persisted for up to 2 months and eventually integrated into the host tissue, while blank gelatin sponges degraded completely by the end of the second month. CONCLUSION Gelatin sponge is a clinically accessible scaffold for HuMSCs implantation to maintain short-term survival of the cells and high-level production of growth factors, which demonstrates good clinical potential for enhancing wound healing.

Preparation and characterization of human keratinocyte-fibroblast cell sheets constructed using PNIAM-co-AM grafted surfaces for burn wound healing. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2020; 31:126. [PMID: 33247815 DOI: 10.1007/s10856-020-06469-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/04/2020] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
Autologous skin grafting, the standard treatment for severe burns, is sometimes not possible due to the limited available skin surfaces for the procedure. With advances in tissue engineering, various cell-based skin substitutes have been developed to serve as skin replacements and to promote tissue regeneration and healing. In this work, we propose the use of cell sheet technology to fabricate keratinocyte-fibroblast tissue constructs from the temperature-responsive poly(N-isoproprylacrylamide-co-acrylamide) (PNIAM-co-AM) grafted surfaces for the treatment of burn wounds. The characteristics of the human keratinocyte and fibroblast cell sheets harvested using PNIAM-co-AM grafted surfaces were similar to those cell sheets detached from the commercially-available UpCellTM plates. Upon lowering the incubation temperature, confluent keratinocytes and fibroblasts could be detached as intact sheets, consisting of biologically active cells, as indicated by their high cell viability and their reattachment, migratory, and proliferative activities. A histological analysis of the stratified keratinocyte-fibroblast cell sheets revealed the evidence of cell migration and tissue reorganization to form two distinct epidermal and dermal layers, quite similar to the skin tissue's structure. In addition, the keratinocyte-fibroblast sheets could synthesize and release significant amounts of essential cytokines and growth factors involved in regulating the wound healing process, including IL-1α, IL-6, TNF-α, VEGF, and bFGF, implying the therapeutic effect of these cell sheets, which could be beneficial to accelerate tissue repair and regeneration, leading to faster wound healing.

Abstract
The accelerating and thorough treatment of chronic wounds still represents a major unmet medical need owing to the complex symptoms resulting from metabolic disorder of the wound microenvironment. Although numerous strategies and bioactive hydrogels are developed, an effective and widely used method of chronic wound treatment remains a bottleneck. With the aim to accelerate chronic wound healing, many hydrogel dressings with antioxidant functions have emerged and are proven to accelerate wound healing, especially for chronic wound repair. The new strategy in chronic wound treatment brought by antioxidant hydrogels is of great significance to human health. Here, the application of antioxidant hydrogels in the repair of chronic wounds is discussed systematically, aiming to provide an important theoretical reference for the further breakthrough of chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Bottom-up tissue engineering is a promising approach for designing modular biomimetic structures that aim to recapitulate the intricate hierarchy and biofunctionality of native human tissues. In recent years, this field has seen exciting progress driven by an increasing knowledge of biological systems and their rational deconstruction into key core components. Relevant advances in the bottom-up assembly of unitary living blocks toward the creation of higher order bioarchitectures based on multicellular-rich structures or multicomponent cell-biomaterial synergies are described. An up-to-date critical overview of long-term existing and rapidly emerging technologies for integrative bottom-up tissue engineering is provided, including discussion of their practical challenges and required advances. It is envisioned that a combination of cell-biomaterial constructs with bioadaptable features and biospecific 3D designs will contribute to the development of more robust and functional humanized tissues for therapies and disease models, as well as tools for fundamental biological studies.

Abstract
Cell sheet engineering has evolved rapidly in recent years as a new approach for cell-based therapy. Cell sheet harvest technology is important for producing viable, transplantable cell sheets and applying them to tissue engineering. To date, most cell sheet studies use thermo-responsive systems to detach cell sheets. However, other approaches have been reported. This review provides the progress in cell sheet detachment techniques, particularly reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive strategies. Therefore, we present a comprehensive introduction to ROS, their application in regenerative medicine, and considerations on how to use ROS in cell detachment. The review also discusses current limitations and challenges for clarifying the mechanism of the ROS-responsive cell sheet detachment.
