Abstract
Addressing significant medical challenges arising from tissue damage and organ failure, the field of tissue engineering has evolved to provide revolutionary approaches for regenerating functional tissues and organs. This involves employing various techniques, including the development and application of novel nanomaterials. Among them, chiral nanomaterials comprising non-superimposable nanostructures with their mirror images have recently emerged as innovative biomaterial candidates to guide tissue regeneration due to their unique characteristics. Chiral nanomaterials including chiral fibre supramolecular hydrogels, polymer-based chiral materials, self-assembling peptides, chiral-patterned surfaces, and the recently developed intrinsically chiroptical nanoparticles have demonstrated remarkable ability to regulate biological processes through routes such as enantioselective catalysis and enhanced antibacterial activity. Despite several recent reviews on chiral nanomaterials, limited attention has been given to the specific potential of these materials in facilitating tissue regeneration processes. Thus, this timely review aims to fill this gap by exploring the fundamental characteristics of chiral nanomaterials, including their chiroptical activities and analytical techniques. Also, the recent advancements in incorporating these materials in tissue engineering applications are highlighted. The review concludes by critically discussing the outlook of utilizing chiral nanomaterials in guiding future strategies for tissue engineering design.

Abstract
Cell chirality is extremely important for the evolution of cell morphogenesis to manipulate cell performance due to left-right asymmetry. Although chiral micro- and nanoscale biomaterials have been developed to regulate cell functions, how cell chirality affects cell nanomechanics to command nuclear mechanotransduction was ambiguous. In this study, chiral engineered microcircle arrays were prepared by photosensitive cross-linking synthesis on cell culture plates to control the clockwise/counterclockwise geometric topology of stem cells. Asymmetric focal adhesion and cytoskeleton structures could induce chiral cell nanomechanics measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM) nanoindentation in left-/right-handed stem cells. Cell nanomechanics could be enhanced when the construction of mature focal adhesion and the assembly of actin and myosin cytoskeletons were well organized in chiral engineered stem cells. Curvature angles had a negative effect on cell nanomechanics, while cell chirality did not change cytoskeletal mechanics. The biased cytoskeleton tension would engender different nuclear mechanotransductions by yes-associated protein (YAP) evaluation. The chiral stimuli were delivered into the nuclei to oversee nuclear behaviors. A strong cell modulus could activate high nuclear DNA synthesis activity by mechanotransduction. The results will bring the possibility of understanding the interplay of chiral cell nanomechanics and mechanotransduction in nanomedicines and biomaterials.

Abstract
By harnessing structural hierarchical insights, plausibly simulate better ones imagination to figure out the best choice of methods for reaching out the unprecedented developments of the tissue engineering products as a next level. Constructing a functional tissue that incorporates two-dimensional (2D) or higher dimensions requires overcoming technological or biological limitations in order to orchestrate the structural compilation of one-dimensional and 2D sheets (microstructures) simultaneously (in situ). This approach enables the creation of a layered structure that can be referred to as an ensemble of layers or, after several days of maturation, a direct or indirect joining of layers. Here, we have avoided providing a detailed methodological description of three-dimensional and 2D strategies, except for a few interesting examples that highlight the higher alignment of cells and emphasize rarely remembered facts associated with vascular, peripheral nerve, muscle, and intestine tissues. The effective directionality of cells in conjunction with geometric cues (in the range of micrometers) is well known to affect a variety of cell behaviors. The curvature of a cell's environment is one of the factors that influence the formation of patterns within tissues. The text will cover cell types containing some level of stemness, which will be followed by their consequences for tissue formation. Other important considerations pertain to cytoskeleton traction forces, cell organelle positioning, and cell migration. An overview of cell alignment along with several pivotal molecular and cellular level concepts, such as mechanotransduction, chirality, and curvature of structure effects on cell alignments will be presented. The mechanotransduction term will be used here in the context of the sensing capability that cells show as a result of force-induced changes either at the conformational or the organizational levels, a capability that allows us to modify cell fate by triggering downstream signaling pathways. A discussion of the cells' cytoskeleton and of the stress fibers involvement in altering the cell's circumferential constitution behavior (alignment) based on exposed scaffold radius will be provided. Curvatures with size similarities in the range of cell sizes cause the cell's behavior to act as if it was in an in vivo tissue environment. The revision of the literature, patents, and clinical trials performed for the present study shows that there is a clear need for translational research through the implementation of clinical trial platforms that address the tissue engineering possibilities raised in the current revision. This article is categorized under: Infectious Diseases > Biomedical Engineering Neurological Diseases > Biomedical Engineering Cardiovascular Diseases > Biomedical Engineering.

Abstract
Microgrooved surfaces are recognized as an important strategy of tissue engineering to promote the alignment of bone cells. In this work, we have investigated the mechanical and morphological aspects of osteoblasts cells after interaction with different micro-structured polymeric surfaces. Femtosecond laser writing technique was used for the construction of circular and parallel microgrooved patterns in biocompatible polymeric surfaces based on pentaerythritol triacrylate. Additionally, we have studied the influence of the biocompatible TiO2 nanocrystals (NCs) related to the cell behavior, when incorporated to the photoresin. The atomic force microscopy technique was used to investigate the biomechanical reaction of the human osteoblast-like MG-63 cells for the different microgroove. It was demonstrated that osteoblasts grown on circular microgrooved surfaces exhibited significantly larger Young's modulus compared to cells sown on flat films. Furthermore, we could observe that TiO2 NCs improved the circular microgrooves effects, resulting in more populated sites, 34% more elongated cells, and increasing the cell stiffness by almost 160%. These results can guide the design and construction of effective scaffold surfaces with circular microgrooves for tissue engineering and bone regeneration.

Abstract
Due to the innate extracellular matrix mimicking features, fibrous materials exhibited great application potential in biomedicine. In developing excellent fibrous biomaterial, it is essential to reveal the corresponding inherent fiber features' effects on cell behaviors. Due to the inevitable 'interference' cell adhesions to the background or between adjacent fibers, it is difficult to precisely reveal the inherent fiber diameter effect on cell behaviors by using a traditional fiber mat. A single-layer and parallel-arranged polycaprolactone fiber pattern platform with an excellent non-fouling background is designed and constructed herein. In this unique material platform, the 'interference' cell adhesions through interspace between fibers to the environment could be effectively ruled out by the non-fouling background. The 'interference' cell adhesions between adjacent fibers could also be excluded from the sparsely arranged (SA) fiber patterns. The influence of fiber diameter on stem cell behaviors is precisely and comprehensively investigated based on eliminating the undesired 'interference' cell adhesions in a controllable way. On the SA fiber patterns, small diameter fiber (SA-D1, D1 means 1 μm in diameter) may seriously restrict cell proliferation and osteogenesis when compared to the middle (SA-D8) and large (SA-D56) ones and SA-D8 shows the optimal osteogenesis enhancement effect. At the same time, the cells present similar proliferation ability and even the highest osteogenic ability on the densely arranged (DA) fiber patterns with small diameter fiber (DA-D1) when compared to the middle (DA-D8) and large (DA-D56) ones. The 'interference' cell adhesion between adjacent fibers under dense fiber arrangement may be the main reason for inducing these different cell behavior trends along with fiber diameters. Related results and comparisons have illustrated the effects of fiber diameter on stem cell behaviors more precisely and objectively, thus providing valuable reference and guidance for developing effective fibrous biomaterials.

Abstract
Micropatterned substrate is a unique method for studying cell biology at the single-cell level. Using photolithography to create binary patterns of cell-adherent peptide surrounding by non-fouling cell-repellent poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogel, this patterning method allows for controlling cell attachment with desired sizes and shapes up to 19 days. Here we provide the detailed procedure of fabrication for such patterns. This method will allow monitoring of prolonged reaction of single cells such as cell differentiation upon induction or time-resolved apoptosis stimulated by drug molecules for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Nowadays, biomaterials have evolved from the inert supports or functional substitutes to the bioactive materials able to trigger or promote the regenerative potential of tissues. The interdisciplinary progress has broadened the definition of 'biomaterials', and a typical new insight is the concept of tissue induction biomaterials. The term 'regenerative biomaterials' and thus the contents of this article are relevant to yet beyond tissue induction biomaterials. This review summarizes the recent progress of medical materials including metals, ceramics, hydrogels, other polymers and bio-derived materials. As the application aspects are concerned, this article introduces regenerative biomaterials for bone and cartilage regeneration, cardiovascular repair, 3D bioprinting, wound healing and medical cosmetology. Cell-biomaterial interactions are highlighted. Since the global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019, the review particularly mentions biomaterials for public health emergency. In the last section, perspectives are suggested: (i) creation of new materials is the source of innovation; (ii) modification of existing materials is an effective strategy for performance improvement; (iii) biomaterial degradation and tissue regeneration are required to be harmonious with each other; (iv) host responses can significantly influence the clinical outcomes; (v) the long-term outcomes should be paid more attention to; (vi) the noninvasive approaches for monitoring in vivo dynamic evolution are required to be developed; (vii) public health emergencies call for more research and development of biomaterials; and (viii) clinical translation needs to be pushed forward in a full-chain way. In the future, more new insights are expected to be shed into the brilliant field-regenerative biomaterials.

Abstract
Left-right asymmetry is a conserved property in nature and observed in the human body, a property known as cell chirality. Cell chirality is often studied using micropatterned in vitro models. However, micropattern geometry and size often varies across different studies, making it challenging to compare results. Here, we utilized micropatterned RGD-peptide lines on hyaluronic acid hydrogels to investigate the effect of the micropattern width on the exhibited cell chirality bias of brain microvascular endothelial cells. Overall, this cell type exhibited a negative chirality bias on micropatterned lines ranging from 10 μm to 400 μm in width, where the negative bias was most pronounced on the 100 μm wide lines. We also observed that this exhibited chirality bias varied across the line width. This work serves as a guide to determine optimal micropattern width for further investigations on cell chirality bias and its prominence in e.g., disease states or upon exposure to toxic substances. Brain endothelial microvascular cell chirality is dependent on micropattern width and spatial localization. Finding the optimal micropattern width and including only the centre cells in the analysis for chirality-based experiments might improve further experimental results.![]()

Abstract
Cell chirality plays a critical role in the linkage between molecular chirality and the asymmetrical biological functions of body organs. However, enantioselective interactions between cell chirality and the extracellular environment are not yet fully understood. In this study, we investigated the effects of structurally chiral extracellular microenvironments on cellular alignments and differentiations. Twisted wrinkle-shaped chiral micropatterns were prepared using biaxial and asymmetric buckling methods, wherein structural handedness was determined from the orientation of the tilt angle between the first and second microwrinkles. Myoblasts were separately cultured on two enantiomeric chiral micropatterns in a mirror-reflected shape. Cells cultured on the left-handed chiral micropatterns preferred alignments along the direction of the second microwrinkle, with a relatively deeper valley than that of the first microwrinkle. The aligned cells on the left-handed pattern showed higher differentiation rates, as assessed by fusion indices and marker protein expression levels, than those cultured on right-handed chiral micropatterns. These results suggest that myoblasts exhibit enantioselective recognition of structurally chiral microenvironments, which can promote cellular alignments and differentiation.

Abstract
Zn-based alloys are considered as new kind of potential biodegradable implanted biomaterials recently. The difficulty of metal implanted biomaterials and bone tissue integration seriously affects the applications of metal implanted scaffolds in bone tissue-related fields. Herein, we self-designed Zn0.8Mn and Zn0.8Mn0.1Li alloys and CaP coated Zn0.8Mn and Zn0.8Mn0.1Li alloys, then evaluated the degradation property and cytocompatibility. The results demonstrated that the Zn0.8Mn0.1Li alloys had profoundly modified the degradation property and cytocompatibility, but Zn0.8Mn0.1Li alloys had particularly adverse effects on the surface morphology of osteoblasts. The results furtherly showed that the CaP-coated Zn0.8Mn and Zn0.8Mn0.1Li alloys scaffold had better biocompatibility, which would further guarantee the biosafety of this new kind of biodegradable Zn-based alloys implants for future clinical applications.

[PMID: 36113722 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2022.09.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2022] [Revised: 08/28/2022] [Accepted: 09/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF) is a promising biomaterial due to its good biocompatibility, easy availability, and high mechanical properties. Compared with mulberry silk fibroin (MSF), nonmulberry silk fibroin (NSF) isolated from typical nonmulberry silkworm silk exhibits unique arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequences with favorable cell adhesion enhancing effect. This inherent property probably makes the NSF more suitable for cell culture and tissue regeneration-related applications. Accordingly, various types of NSF-based biomaterials, such as particles, films, fiber mats, and 3D scaffolds, are constructed and their application potential in different biomedical fields is extensively investigated. Based on these promising NSF biomaterials, this review firstly makes a systematical comparison between the molecular structure and properties of MSF and typical NSF and highlights the unique properties of NSF. In addition, we summarize the effective fabrication strategies from degummed nonmulberry silk fibers to regenerated NSF-based biomaterials with controllable formats and their recent application progresses in cell behavior regulation and tissue regeneration. Finally, current challenges and future perspectives for the fabrication and application of NSF-based biomaterials are discussed. Related research and perspectives may provide valuable references for designing and modifying effective NSF-based and other natural biomaterials. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: There exist many reviews about mulberry silk fibroin (MSF) biomaterials and their biomedical applications, while that about nonmulberry silk fibroin (NSF) biomaterials is scarce. Compared with MSF, NSF exhibits unique arginine-glycine-aspartic acid sequences with promising cell adhesion enhancing effect, which makes NSF more suitable for cell culture and tissue regeneration related applications. Focusing on these advanced NSF biomaterials, this review has systematically compared the structure and properties of MSF and NSF, and emphasized the unique properties of NSF. Following that, the effective construction strategies for NSF-based biomaterials are summarized, and their recent applications in cell behavior regulations and tissue regenerations are highlighted. Furthermore, current challenges and future perspectives for the fabrication and application of NSF-based biomaterials were discussed.

Abstract
Titanium and titanium alloy implants are essential for bone tissue regeneration engineering. The current trend is toward the manufacture of implants from materials that mimic the structure, composition and elasticity of bones. Titanium and titanium alloy implants, the most common materials for implants, can be used as a bone conduction material but cannot promote osteogenesis. In clinical practice, there is a high demand for implant surfaces that stimulate bone formation and accelerate bone binding, thus shortening the implantation-to-loading time and enhancing implantation success. To avoid stress shielding, the elastic modulus of porous titanium and titanium alloy implants must match that of bone. Micro-arc oxidation technology has been utilized to increase the surface activity and build a somewhat hard coating on porous titanium and titanium alloy implants. More recently, a growing number of researchers have combined micro-arc oxidation with hydrothermal, ultrasonic, and laser treatments, coatings that inhibit bacterial growth, and acid etching with sand blasting methods to improve bonding to bone. This paper summarizes the reaction at the interface between bone and implant material, the porous design principle of scaffold material, MAO technology and the combination of MAO with other technologies in the field of porous titanium and titanium alloys to encourage their application in the development of medical implants.

Abstract
The needs for high-resolution, well-defined and complex 3D microstructures in diverse fields call for the rapid development of novel 3D microfabrication techniques. Among those, two-photon polymerization (TPP) attracted extensive attention owing to its unique and useful characteristics. As an approach to implementing additive manufacturing, TPP has truly 3D writing ability to fabricate artificially designed constructs with arbitrary geometry. The spatial resolution of the manufactured structures via TPP can exceed the diffraction limit. The 3D structures fabricated by TPP could properly mimic the microenvironment of natural extracellular matrix, providing powerful tools for the study of cell behavior. TPP can meet the requirements of manufacturing technique for 3D scaffolds (engineering cell culture matrices) used in cytobiology, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In this review, we demonstrated the development in 3D microfabrication techniques and we presented an overview of the applications of TPP as an advanced manufacturing technique in complex 3D biomedical scaffolds fabrication. Given this multidisciplinary field, we discussed the perspectives of physics, materials science, chemistry, biomedicine and mechanical engineering. Additionally, we dived into the principles of tow-photon absorption (TPA) and TPP, requirements of 3D biomedical scaffolders, developed-to-date materials and chemical approaches used by TPP and manufacturing strategies based on mechanical engineering. In the end, we draw out the limitations of TPP on 3D manufacturing for now along with some prospects of its future outlook towards the fabrication of 3D biomedical scaffolds.

Abstract
Silk fibroin has become a promising biomaterial owing to its remarkable mechanical property, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and sufficient supply. However, it is difficult to directly construct materials with other formats except for yarn, fabric and nonwoven based on natural silk. A promising bioinspired strategy is firstly extracting desired building blocks of silk, then reconstructing them into functional regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) materials with controllable formats and structures. This strategy could give it excellent processability and modifiability, thus well meet the diversified needs in biomedical applications. Recently, to engineer RSF materials with properties similar to or beyond the hierarchical structured natural silk, novel extraction and reconstruction strategies have been developed. In this review, we seek to describe varied building blocks of silk at different levels used in biomedical field and their effective extraction and reconstruction strategies. This review also present recent discoveries and research progresses on how these functional RSF biomaterials used in advanced biomedical applications, especially in the fields of cell-material interactions, soft tissue regeneration, and flexible bioelectronic devices. Finally, potential study and application for future opportunities, and current challenges for these bioinspired strategies and corresponding usage were also comprehensively discussed. In this way, it aims to provide valuable references for the design and modification of novel silk biomaterials, and further promote the high-quality-utilization of silk or other biopolymers.

Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF)-based electroactive biomaterials with favorable electroconductive property and transparency have great potential applications for cell culture and tissue engineering. Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) is an excellent candidate as a conductive component, which has been widely used in the field of bioelectronics; however, it is hard to be directly coated onto the surface of regenerated SF (RSF) materials with good stability under a cell culture environment. In this study, a one-step facile PEDOT:PSS modification approach for RSF films based on a suitable post-treatment process of RSF was developed. PEDOT:PSS was successfully embedded and fixed into the shallow surface of an RSF film, forming a tightly conjunct conductive layer on the film surface based on the conformation transition of RSF during the post-treatment process. The conductive layer demonstrated a PSS-rich surface and a PEDOT-rich bulk structure and showed excellent stability under a cell culture environment. More specifically, the robust RSF/PEDOT:PSS film achieved in the post-treatment formula with 70% ethanol proportion possessed best comprehensive properties such as a sheet resistance of 3.833 × 103 Ω/square, a conductivity of 1.003 S/cm, and transmittance over 80% at maximum in the visible range. This kind of electroactive biomaterial also showed good electrochemical stability and degradable properties. Moreover, pheochromocytoma-derived cell line (PC12) cells were cultured on the RSF/PEDOT:PSS film, and an effective electrical stimulation cell response was demonstrated. The facile preparation strategy and the good electroconductive property and transparency make this RSF/PEDOT:PSS film an ideal candidate for neuronal tissue engineering and further for biomedical applications.

Abstract
The physiological chirality of extracellular environments is substantially affected by pathological diseases. However, how this stereochemical variation drives host immunity remains poorly understood. Here, it is reported that pathology-mimetic M-nanofibrils-but not physiology-mimetic P-nanofibrils-act as a defense mechanism that helps to restore tissue homeostasis by manipulating immunological response. Quantitative multi-omics in vivo and in vitro shows that M-nanofibrils significantly inhibit inflammation and promote tissue regeneration by upregulating M2 macrophage polarization and downstream immune signaling compared with P-nanofibrils. Molecular analysis and theoretical simulation demonstrate that M-chirality displays higher stereo-affinity to cellular binding, which induces higher cellular contractile stress and activates mechanosensitive ion channel PIEZOl to conduct Ca2+ influx. In turn, the nuclear transfer of STAT is biased by Ca2+ influx to promote M2 polarization. These findings underscore the structural mechanisms of disease, providing design basis for immunotherapy with bionic functional materials.

Abstract
Bone tissue with strong adaptability is often in a complex dynamical microenvironment in vivo, which is associated with the pathogenesis and treatment of orthopedic diseases. Therefore, it is of great significance to investigate the effects of corresponding compound stimulation on cell behaviors. Herein, a fluid shear stress (FSS) plus ultrasound stimulation platform suitable for cell studies based on a microfluidic chip was constructed and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) was chosen as a model cell. The proliferation and osteogenesis of BMSCs under the compound stimulation of FSS plus ultrasound in growth medium without any soluble induction factors were firstly investigated. Single FSS stimulation and static culture conditions were also examined. Results illustrated that suitable single FSS stimulation (about 0.06 dyn/cm2) could significantly enhance cell proliferation and osteogenesis simultaneously when compared to the static control, while greater FSS mitigated or even restricted these enhancing effects. Interestingly, ultrasound stimulation combined with this suitable FSS stimulation further accelerated cell proliferation as the intensity of ultrasound increasing. As for the osteogenesis under compound stimulation, it was relatively restricted under lower ultrasound intensity (about 0.075 W/cm2), while promoted when the intensity became higher (about 1.75 W/cm2). This study suggests that both the cell proliferation and osteogenesis are very responsive to the magnitudes of FSS and ultrasound stimulations and can be both significantly enhanced by proper combination strategies. Moreover, these findings will provide valuable references for the construction of effective cell bioreactors and also the treatment of orthopedic diseases.

Abstract
The dominant source of thromboembolism in heart comes from the left atrial appendage (LAA). An occluder can close LAA and significantly reduce the risk of strokes, particularly for those patients with atrial fibrillation. However, it is technically challenging to fabricate an LAA occluder that is appropriate for percutaneous implantation and can be rapidly endothelialized to accomplish complete closure and avoid severe complication. Hypothesizing that a fast migration rate of endothelial cells on the implant surface would lead to rapid endothelialization, we fabricated an LAA occlusion device for interventional treatment with a well-designed 3D architecture and a nanoscale 2D coating. Through screening of biomaterials surfaces with cellular studies in vitro including cell observations, qPCR, RNA sequencing, and implantation studies in vivo, we revealed that a titanium-nitrogen nanocoating on a NiTi alloy promoted high migration rate of endothelial cells on the surface. The effectiveness of this first nanocoating LAA occluder was validated in animal experiments and a patient case, both of which exhibited successful implantation, fast sealing and long-term safety of the device. The mechanistic insights gained in this study will be useful for the design of medical devices with appropriate surface modification, not necessarily for improved cell adhesion but sometimes for enhanced cell migration.

Abstract
Although many tissue regeneration processes after biomaterial implantation are related to migrations of multiple cell types on material surfaces, available tools to adjust relative migration speeds are very limited. Herein, we put forward a nanomaterial strategy to employ surface modification with arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) nanoarrays to tune in vitro cell migration using endothelial cells (ECs) and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) as demonstrated cell types. We found that migrations of both cell types exhibited a nonmonotonic trend with the increase of RGD nanospacing, yet with different peaks-74 nm for SMCs but 95 nm for ECs. The varied sensitivities afford a facile way to regulate the relative migration speeds. Although ECs migrated at a speed similar to SMCs on a non-nano surface, the migration of ECs could be controlled to be significantly faster or slower than SMCs simply by adjusting the RGD nanospacing. This study suggests a potential application of surface modification of biomaterials on a nanoscale level.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Cell adhesion to extracellular matrices (ECM) is critical to physiological and pathological processes as well as biomedical and biotechnological applications. It has been known that a cell can adhere on an adhesive microisland only over a critical size. But no publication has concerned critical adhesion areas of cells on microislands with nanoarray decoration. Herein, we fabricated a series of micro-nanopatterns with different microisland sizes and arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) nanospacings on a nonfouling poly(ethylene glycol) background. Besides reproducing that nanospacing of RGD, a ligand of its receptor integrin (a membrane protein), significantly influences specific cell adhesion on bioactive nanoarrays, we confirmed that the concept of critical adhesion area originally suggested in studies of cells on micropatterns was justified also on the micro-nanopatterns, yet the latter exhibited more characteristic behaviors of cell adhesion. We found increased critical adhesion areas of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) on nanoarrayed microislands with increased RGD nanospacings. However, the numbers of nanodots with respect to the critical adhesion areas were not a constant. A unified interpretation was then put forward after combining nonspecific background adhesion and specific cell adhesion. We further carried out the asymptotic analysis of a series of micro-nanopatterned surfaces to obtain the effective RGD nanospacing on unpatterned free surfaces with densely grafted RGD, which could be estimated nonzero but has never been revealed previously without the assistance of the micro-nanopatterning techniques and the corresponding analysis. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL Supplementary materials and methods (details of fabrication of micro-nanopatterns), and supplementary results (selective adhesion or localization of hMSCs on nanoarrayed microislands with non-fouling background, calculation of critical number of integrin-ligand binding N*, etc.) are available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s12274-021-3711-6.

Biodegradable polymeric occluder for closure of atrial septal defect with interventional treatment of cardiovascular disease. Biomaterials 2021; 274:120851. [PMID: 33965798 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2021.120851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/22/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
The next-generation closure device for interventional treatment of congenital heart disease is regarded to be biodegradable, yet the corresponding biomaterial technique is still challenging. Herein, we report the first fully biodegradable atrial septal defect (ASD) occluder finally coming into clinical use, which is made of biodegradable poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA). We characterized the physico-chemical properties of PLLA fibers as well as the raw polymer and the operability of the as-fabricated occluders. Cell behaviors on material were observed, and in vivo fiber degradation and inflammatory responses were examined. ASD models in piglets were created, and 44 PLLA ASD occluders were implanted via catheter successfully. After 36 months, the PLLA ASD occluders almost degraded without any complications. The mechanical properties and thickness between newborn and normal atrial septum showed no significant difference. We further accomplished the first clinical implantation of the PLLA ASD occluder in a four-year boy, and the two-year follow-up up to date preliminarily indicated safety and feasibility of such new-generation fully biodegradable occluder made of synthetic polymers.
