Abstract
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a worldwide problem which hugely affects the quality of patients' life. Nerve conduits are now the alternative for treatment of PNI to mimic the gold standard, autologous nerve graft. In that case, with the advantages of electrospun micro- or nano-fibers nerve conduit, the peripheral nerve growth can be escalated, in a better way. In this systematic review, we focused on 39 preclinical studies of electrospun nerve conduit, which include the in vitro and in vivo evaluation from animal peripheral nerve defect models, to provide an update on the progress of the development of electrospun nerve conduit over the last 5 years (2016-2021). The physical characteristics, biocompatibility, functional and morphological outcomes of nerve conduits from different studies would be compared, to give a better strategy for treatment of PNI.

Abstract
Cartilage defect is difficult to heal due to its avascular properties. Implantation of mesenchymal stem cell is one of the most promising approach for regenerating cartilage defects. Here we prepared polymeric nanofibrils decorated with cartilage-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) as a chondroinductive scaffold material for cartilage repair. To fabricate nanofibrils, eletrospun PCL nanofibers were fragmented by subsequent mechanical and chemical process. The nanofibrils were surface-modified with poly(glycidyl methacrylate) (PGMA@NF) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). The epoxy groups of PGMA@NF were subsequently reacted with dECM prepared from bovine articular cartilage. Therefore, the cartilage-dECM-decorated nanofibrils structurally and biochemically mimic cartilage-specific microenvironment. Once adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were self-assembled with the cartilage-dECM-decorated nanofibrils by cell-directed association, they exhibited differentiation hallmarks of chondrogenesis without additional biologic additives. ADSCs in the nanofibril composites significantly increased expression of chondrogenic gene markers in comparison to those in pellet culture. Furthermore, ADSC-laden nanofibril composites filled the osteochondral defects compactly due to their clay-like texture. Thus, the ADSC-laden nanofibril composites supported the long-term regeneration of 12 weeks without matrix loss during joint movement. The defects treated with the ADSC-laden PGMA@NF significantly facilitated reconstruction of their cartilage and subchondral bone ECM matrices compared to those with ADSC-laden nanofibrils, non-specifically adsorbing cartilage-dECM without surface decoration of PGMA.

Micropatterned conductive hydrogels as multifunctional muscle-mimicking biomaterials: Graphene-incorporated hydrogels directly patterned with femtosecond laser ablation. Acta Biomater 2019; 97:141-153. [PMID: 31352108 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.07.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 46] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2019] [Revised: 07/23/2019] [Accepted: 07/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
Multifunctional biomaterials that can provide physical, electrical, and structural cues to cells and tissues are highly desirable to mimic the important characteristics of native tissues and efficiently modulate cellular behaviors. Especially, electrically conductive biomaterials can efficiently deliver electrical signals to living systems; however, the production of conductive biomaterials presenting multiple cell interactive cues is still a great challenge. In this study, we fabricafed an electrically conductive, mechanically soft, and topographically active hydrogel by micropatterning a graphene oxide (GO)-incorporated polyacrylamide hydrogel (GO/PAAm) with femtosecond laser ablation (FLA) and subsequent chemical reduction. FLA parameters were optimized to efficiently produce distinct line patterns on GO/PAAm hydrogels to induce myoblast alignment and maturation. The line patterns distances (PD) were varied to have different topographies (20-80 μm PD). In vitro studies with C2C12 myoblasts revealed that the micopatterned hydrogels are superior to the unpatterned substrates in inducing myogenesis and myotube alignment. Reduced GO/PAAm with 50 μm PD, i.e., PD50/r(GO/PAAm), showed the best results among the various features for differentiation and myotube alignment. Electrical stimulation of myoblasts on the micropatterned conductive hydrogels further promoted the differentiation of myoblasts. In vivo implantation studies indicated good tissue compatibility of PD50/r(GO/PAAm) samples. Altogether, we successfully demonstrated that the micropatterned r(GO/PAAm) may offer multiple properties capable of positively affecting myoblast responses. This hydrogel may serve as an effective multifunctional biomaterial, which possesses the topography for cell alignment/maturation, mechanical properties of the native skeletal muscle tissue, and desirable electrical conductivity for delivering electrical signals to cells, for various biomedical applications such as muscle tissue scaffolds. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Micropatterned conductive hydrogels were created by polymerization of a graphene oxide-incorporated polyacrylamide hydrogel, micropatterning with femtosecond laser ablation, and chemical reduction, which can mimic important characteristics of native skeletal muscle tissues. The micropatterned conductive hydro-gels promoted myogenesis/alignment, enabled electrical stimulation of myoblasts, and displayed good tissue compatibility, which can therefore serve as a multifunctional biomaterial that is topographically active, mechanically soft, and electrically conductive for delivering multiple cell stimulating signals for potential skeletal muscle tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nerve regeneration is important for the treatment of degenerative diseases and neurons injured by accidents. Nerve growth factor (NGF) has been previously conjugated to materials for promotion of neurogenesis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Photoreactive gelatin was prepared by chemical coupling of gelatin with azidobenzoic acid (P-gel), and then NGF was immobilized on substrates in the presence or absence of micropatterned photomasks. UV irradiation induced crosslinking reactions of P-gel with itself, NGF, and the plate for immobilization. RESULTS By adjustment of the P-gel concentration, the nanometer-order height of micropatterns was controlled. NGF was quantitatively immobilized with increasing amounts of P-gel. Immobilized NGF induced neurite outgrowth of PC12 cells, a cell line derived from a pheochromocytoma of the rat adrenal medulla, at the same level as soluble NGF. The immobilized NGF showed higher thermal stability than the soluble NGF and was repeatedly used without loss of biological activity. The 3D structure (height of the formed micropattern) regulated the behavior of neurite guidance. As a result, the orientation of neurites was regulated by the stripe pattern width. CONCLUSION The micropattern-immobilized NGF nanolayer biochemically and topologically regulated neurite formation.

Abstract
Electrically conductive materials provide a suitable platform for the in vitro study of excitable cells, such as skeletal muscle cells, due to their inherent conductivity and electroactivity. Here it is demonstrated that bioinspired electroconductive nanopatterned substrates enhance myogenic differentiation and maturation. The topographical cues from the highly aligned collagen bundles that form the extracellular matrix of skeletal muscle tissue are mimicked using nanopatterns created with capillary force lithography. Electron beam deposition is then utilized to conformally coat nanopatterned substrates with a thin layer of either gold or titanium to create electroconductive substrates with well-defined, large-area nanotopographical features. C2C12 cells, a myoblast cell line, are cultured for 7 d on substrates and the effects of topography and electrical conductivity on cellular morphology and myogenic differentiation are assessed. It is found that biomimetic nanotopography enhances the formation of aligned myotubes and the addition of an electroconductive coating promotes myogenic differentiation and maturation, as indicated by the upregulation of myogenic regulatory factors Myf5, MyoD, and myogenin (MyoG). These results suggest the suitability of electroconductive nanopatterned substrates as a biomimetic platform for the in vitro engineering of skeletal muscle tissue.

Abstract
Background Nerve conduits provide a promising strategy for peripheral nerve injury repair. However, the efficiency of nerve conduits to enhance nerve regeneration and functional recovery is often inferior to that of autografts. Nerve conduits require additional factors such as cell adhesion molecules and neurotrophic factors to provide a more conducive microenvironment for nerve regeneration. Methods In the present study, poly{(lactic acid)-co-[(glycolic acid)-alt-(L-lysine)]} (PLGL) was modified by grafting Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Gly (RGD peptide) and nerve growth factor (NGF) for fabricating new PLGL-RGD-NGF nerve conduits to promote nerve regeneration and functional recovery. PLGL-RGD-NGF nerve conduits were tested in the rat sciatic nerve transection model. Rat sciatic nerves were cut off to form a 10 mm defect and repaired with the nerve conduits. All of the 32 Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: group PLGL-RGD-NGF, group PLGL-RGD, group PLGL and group autograft. At 3 months after surgery, the regenerated rat sciatic nerve was evaluated by footprint analysis, electrophysiology, and histologic assessment. Experimental data were processed using the statistical software SPSS 10.0. Results The sciatic function index value of groups PLGL-RGD-NGF and autograft was significantly higher than those of groups PLGL-RGD and PLGL. The nerve conduction velocities of groups PLGL-RGD-NGF and autograft were significantly faster than those of groups PLGL-RGD and PLGL. The regenerated nerves of groups PLGL-RGD-NGF and autograft were more mature than those of groups PLGL-RGD and PLGL. There was no significant difference between groups PLGL-RGD-NGF and autograft. Conclusions PLGL-RGD-NGF nerve conduits are more effective in regenerating nerves than both PLGL-RGD nerve conduits and PLGL nerve conduits. The effect is as good as that of an autograft. This work established the platform for further development of the use of PLGL-RGD-NGF nerve conduits for clinical nerve repair.
