Abstract
In this study, a novel bionic periosteum (BP)-bioactive glass fiber membrane (BGFM) is designed. The introduction of magnesium ion (Mg2+) and zinc ion (Zn2+) change the phase separation during the electrospinning (ES) jet stretching process. The fiber's pore structure transitions from connected to closed pores, resulting in a decrease in the rapid release of metal ions while also improving degradation via reducing filling quality. Additionally, the introduction of magnesium (Mg) and zinc (Zn) lead to the formation of negative charged tetrahedral units (MgO4 2- and ZnO4 2-) in the glass network. These units effectively trap positive charged metal ions, further inhibiting ion release. In vitro experiments reveal that the deigned bionic periosteum regulates the polarization of macrophages toward M2 type, thereby establishing a conducive immune environment for osteogenic differentiation. Bioinformatics analysis indicate that BP enhanced bone repair via the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. The slow release of metal ions from the bionic periosteum can directly enhance osteogenic differentiation and vascularization, thereby accelerating bone regeneration. Finally, the bionic periosteum exhibits remarkable capabilities in angiogenesis and osteogenesis, demonstrating its potential for bone repair in a rat calvarial defect model.

Abstract
Mg-based biodegradable metallic implants are gaining increased attraction for applications in orthopedics and dentistry. However, their current applications are hampered by their high rate of corrosion, degradation, and rapid release of ions and gas bubbles into the physiological medium. The aim of the present study is to investigate the osteogenic and angiogenic potential of coated Mg-based implants in a sheep cranial defect model. Although their osteogenic potential was studied to some extent, their potential to regenerate vascularized bone formation was not studied in detail. We have studied the potential of magnesium-calcium (MgCa)-based alloys modified with zinc (Zn)- or gallium (Ga)-doped calcium phosphate (CaP) coatings as a strategy to control their degradation rate while enhancing bone regeneration capacity. MgCa and its implants with CaP coatings (MgCa/CaP) as undoped or as doped with Zn or Ga (MgCa/CaP + Zn and MgCa/CaP + Ga, respectively) were implanted in bone defects created in the sheep cranium. MgCa implants degraded faster than the others at 4 weeks postop and the weight loss was ca. 50%, while it was ca. 15% for MgCa/CaP and <10% in the presence of Zn and Ga with CaP coating. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the implant surfaces also revealed that the MgCa implants had the largest degree of structural breakdown of all the groups. Radiological evaluation revealed that surface modification with CaP to the MgCa implants induced better bone regeneration within the defects as well as the enhancement of bone-implant surface integration. Bone volume (%) within the defect was ca. 25% in the case of MgCa/CaP + Ga, while it was around 15% for undoped MgCa group upon micro-CT evaluation. This >1.5-fold increase in bone regeneration for MgCa/CaP + Ga implant was also observed in the histopathological examination of the H&E- and Masson's trichrome-stained sections. Immunohistochemical analysis of the bone regeneration (antiosteopontin) and neovascularization (anti-CD31) at the defect sites revealed >2-fold increase in the expression of the markers in both Ga- and Zn-doped, CaP-coated implants. Zn-doped implants further presented low inflammatory reaction, notable bone regeneration, and neovascularization among all the implant groups. These findings indicated that Ga- and Zn-doped CaP coating is an important strategy to control the degradation rate as well as to achieve enhanced bone regeneration capacity of the implants made of Mg-based alloys.

Abstract
Biodegradable Mg/polymer composite fibers offer a promising therapeutic option for tissue injury because of bioactive Mg2+ and biomimetic microstructure. However, current studies are limited to the contribution of Mg2+ and the single microstructure. In this study, we designed Mg/poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (Mg/PLGA) composite microfibers that significantly enhanced angiogenesis and tissue regeneration synergistically by Mg2+ and self-sculptured microstructure, due to spontaneous in situ microphase separation in response to the weakly alkaline microenvironment. Our composite microfiber patch exhibited superior performance in the adhesion, spreading, and angiogenesis functions of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) due to the joint contribution of the hierarchically porous microstructure and Mg2+. Genomics and proteomics analyses revealed that the Mg/PLGA composite microfibers activated the cell focal adhesion and angiogenesis-related signaling pathways. Furthermore, the repair of typical soft tissue defects, including refractory urethral wounds and easily healed skin wounds, validated that our Mg/PLGA composite microfiber patch could provide favorable surface topography and ions microenvironment for tissue infiltration and accelerated revascularization. It could cause rapid urethral tissue regeneration and recovery of rabbit urethral function within 6 weeks and accelerate rat skin wound closure within 16 days. This work provides new insight into soft tissue regeneration through the bioactive alkaline substance/block copolymer composites interactions.

Abstract
Due to the multilayer structure of skin tissue, the fabrication of a 3-layer scaffold could result in planned dermal regeneration. Herein, polyurethane (PU) and polycaprolactone (PCL), as a function of their mechanical stability and collagen due to its arginine-glycine-aspartic acid sequences, zinc ions because of overcoming the common problems of biological factors were employed. The scaffolds' physical, mechanical, and biological properties were examined by SEM, FTIR, contact angle, mechanical tensile, bacteriocidal efficacy, and hemolysis. Also, after L-929 fibroblast seeding, their biological activity was determined by SEM, DAPI, and MTT assays. Then, the cell-seeded scaffolds were implanted in full-thickness wounds of rats and evaluated by wound closure, histological, and molecular techniques. The in vivo studies showed better wound closure with the composite scaffold containing zinc ions. While its dermal re-organization was retarded in the presence of zinc ions compared to the composite scaffold containing non-doped bioglass. Despite this, the doped composite scaffold indicated better observations with the histological evaluations than the nontreated and bare scaffold groups. Real-time PCR confirmed the higher expression of FGF2 and FGFR genes in rats treated with the zinc-doped composite scaffold. In conclusion, PU/PCL-collagen/PCL-collagen containing the doped or non-doped nanoparticles showed better potential to heal dermal injuries.

Abstract
Treatment of bone defects resulting after tumor surgeries, accidents, or non-unions is an actual problem linked to morbidity and the necessity of a second surgery and often requires a critical healthcare cost. Although the surgical technique has changed in a modern way, the treatment outcome is still influenced by patient age, localization of the bone defect, associated comorbidities, the surgeon approach, and systemic disorders. Three-dimensional magnesium-based scaffolds are considered an important step because they can have precise bone defect geometry, high porosity grade, anatomical pore shape, and mechanical properties close to the human bone. In addition, magnesium has been proven in in vitro and in vivo studies to influence bone regeneration and new blood vessel formation positively. In this review paper, we describe the magnesium alloy's effect on bone regenerative processes, starting with a short description of magnesium's role in the bone healing process, host immune response modulation, and finishing with the primary biological mechanism of magnesium ions in angiogenesis and osteogenesis by presenting a detailed analysis based on a literature review. A strategy that must be followed when a patient-adapted scaffold dedicated to bone tissue engineering is proposed and the main fabrication technologies are combined, in some cases with artificial intelligence for Mg alloy scaffolds, are presented with examples. We emphasized the microstructure, mechanical properties, corrosion behavior, and biocompatibility of each study and made a basis for the researchers who want to start to apply the regenerative potential of magnesium-based scaffolds in clinical practice. Challenges, future directions, and special potential clinical applications such as osteosarcoma and persistent infection treatment are present at the end of our review paper.

Abstract
Bone is a highly vascularized tissue, and the ability of magnesium (Mg) to promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis has been widely studied. The aim of bone tissue engineering is to repair bone tissue defects and restore its normal function. Various Mg-enriched materials that can promote angiogenesis and osteogenesis have been made. Here, we introduce several types of orthopedic clinical uses of Mg; recent advances in the study of metal materials releasing Mg ions (pure Mg, Mg alloy, coated Mg, Mg-rich composite, ceramic, and hydrogel) are reviewed. Most studies suggest that Mg can enhance vascularized osteogenesis in bone defect areas. Additionally, we summarized some research on the mechanisms related to vascularized osteogenesis. In addition, the experimental strategies for the research of Mg-enriched materials in the future are put forward, in which clarifying the specific mechanism of promoting angiogenesis is the crux.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) and its alloys are considered to be biodegradable metallic biomaterials for potential orthopedic implants. While the osteogenic properties of Mg alloys have been widely studied, few reports focused on developing a bifunctional Mg implant with osteogenic and angiogenic properties. Herein, a Mg-Sc-Sr alloy was developed, and this alloy's angiogenesis and osteogenesis effects were evaluated in vitro for the first time. X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and metallography images were used to evaluate the microstructure of the developed Mg-Sc-Sr alloy. Human umbilical vein/vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used to evaluate the angiogenic character of the prepared Mg-Sc-Sr alloy. A mix of human bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hBM-MSCs) and HUVEC cell cultures were used to assess the osteogenesis-stimulating effect of Mg-Sc-Sr alloy through alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Von Kossa staining. Higher ALP activity and the number of calcified nodules (27% increase) were obtained for the Mg-Sc-Sr-treated groups compared to Mg-treated groups. In addition, higher VEGF expression (45.5% increase), tube length (80.8% increase), and number of meshes (37.9% increase) were observed. The Mg-Sc-Sr alloy showed significantly higher angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation than pure Mg and the control group, suggesting such a composition as a promising candidate in bone implants.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to formulate citicoline-loaded chitosan-coated liposomes (CT-CS-LPs) for topical administration and evaluated for wound healing in a diabetic animal model. Methods CT-LPs were formulated via a thin-film hydration approach and coated with chitosan (CS). Box-Behnken statistical design investigated the effects of lipid amount, chitosan concentration, and cholesterol amount on vesicle diameter, surface charge, and entrapment efficiency. The potential of the optimized CT-CS-LPs gel for wound healing was further evaluated in streptozocin-induced diabetic rats. The different healing stages were evaluated by several techniques, including general and special staining techniques, in addition to antibody immunohistochemistry. Results The optimized CT-CS-LPs obtained had a mean size of 211.6 nm, a 50.7% entrapment efficiency, and a positive surface charge of 32.1 mV. In addition, the optimized CT-CS-LPs exhibited in vitro sustained release behavior. The in vivo experiments revealed that treatment with the optimized CT-CS-LPs boosts the healing process of the skin wound in diabetic rats by reducing inflammation, accelerating re-epithelization, angiogenesis, fibroblast proliferation, and connective tissue remodeling, leading to rapid wound closure. Conclusion Chitosan-coated liposomes containing citicoline have emerged as a potential approach for promoting the healing process in diabetic rats. However, the therapeutic effectiveness of the suggested approach in diabetic patients needs to be investigated.

ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2021; 9:1292.

Abstract
Background Restenosis is one of the worst side effects of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) due to neointima formation resulting from the excessive proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and continuous inflammation. Biodegradable Mg-based alloy is a promising candidate material because of its good mechanical properties and biocompatibility, and biodegradation of cardiovascular stents. Although studies have shown reduced neointima formation after Mg-based CVS implantation in vivo, these findings were inconsistent with in vitro studies, demonstrating magnesium-mediated promotion of the proliferation and migration of VSMCs. Given the vital role of activated macrophage-driven inflammation in neointima formation, along with the well-demonstrated crosstalk between macrophages and VSMCs, we investigated the interactions of a biodegradable Mg-Nd-Zn-Zr alloy (denoted JDBM), which is especially important for cardiovascular stents, with VSMCs via macrophages. Methods JDBM extracts and MgCl2 solutions were prepared to study their effect on macrophages. To study the effects of the JDBM extracts and MgCl2 solutions on the function of VSMCs via immunoregulation of macrophages, conditioned media (CM) obtained from macrophages was used to establish a VSMC-macrophage indirect coculture system. Results Our results showed that both JDBM extracts and MgCl2 solutions significantly attenuated the inflammatory response stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated macrophages and converted macrophages into M2-type cells. In addition, JDBM extracts and MgCl2 solutions significantly decreased the expression of genes related to VSMC phenotypic switching, migration, and proliferation in macrophages. Furthermore, the proliferation, migration, and proinflammatory phenotypic switching of VSMCs were significantly inhibited when the cells were incubated with CMs from macrophages treated with LPS + extracts or LPS + MgCl2 solutions. Conclusions Taken together, our results suggested that the magnesium in the JDBM extract could affect the functions of VSMCs through macrophage-mediated immunoregulation, inhibiting smooth muscle hyperproliferation to suppress restenosis after implantation of a biodegradable Mg-based stent.

Abstract
Aseptic loosening of a permanent prosthesis remains one of the most common reasons for bone implant failure. To improve the fixation between implant and bone tissue as well as enhance blood vessel formation, bioactive agents are incorporated into the surface of the biomaterial. This study reviews and compares five bioactive elements (copper, magnesium, silicon, strontium, and zinc) with respect to their effect on the angiogenic behavior of endothelial cells (ECs) when incorporated on the surface of biomaterials. Moreover, it provides an overview of the state-of-the-art methodologies used for the in vitro assessment of the angiogenic properties of these elements. Two databases are searched using keywords containing ECs and copper, magnesium, silicon, strontium, and zinc. After applying the defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, 59 articles are retained for the final assessment. An overview of the angiogenic properties of five bioactive elements and the methods used for assessment of their in vitro angiogenic potential is presented. The findings show that silicon and strontium can effectively enhance osseointegration through the simultaneous promotion of both angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Therefore, their integration onto the surface of biomaterials can ultimately decrease the incidence of implant failure due to aseptic loosening.

Collagen extract obtained from Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) skin accelerates wound healing in rat model via up regulating VEGF, bFGF, and α-SMA genes expression. BMC Vet Res 2020; 16:352. [PMID: 32972407 PMCID: PMC7513287 DOI: 10.1186/s12917-020-02566-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Accepted: 09/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the mammalian connective tissue and represents approximately 30% of animal protein. The current study evaluated the potential capacity of collagen extract derived from Nile tilapia skin in improving the cutaneous wound healing in rats and investigated the underlying possible mechanisms. A rat model was used, and the experimental design included a control group (CG) and the tilapia collagen treated group (TCG). Full-thickness wounds were conducted on the back of all the rats under general anesthesia, then the tilapia collagen extract was applied topically on the wound area of TCG. Wound areas of the two experimental groups were measured on days 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 post-wounding. The stages of the wound granulation tissues were detected by histopathologic examination and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and transforming growth factor (TGF-ß1) were investigated using immunohistochemistry. Moreover, relative gene expression analysis of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-ß1), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) were quantified by real-time qPCR. RESULTS The histopathological assessment showed noticeable signs of skin healing in TCG compared to CG. Immunohistochemistry results revealed remarkable enhancement in the expression levels of VEGF and TGF-β1 in TCG. Furthermore, TCG exhibited marked upregulation in the VEGF, bFGF, and α-SMA genes expression. These findings suggested that the topical application of Nile tilapia collagen extract can promote the cutaneous wound healing process in rats, which could be attributed to its stimulating effect on recruiting and activating macrophages to produce chemotactic growth factors, fibroblast proliferation, and angiogenesis. CONCLUSIONS The collagen extract could, therefore, be a potential biomaterial for cutaneous wound healing therapeutics.

Abstract
Inducing the osteogenic differentiation from bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) might be a potent strategy for treating bone loss and nonunion during fracture and improving fracture healing. Among several signaling pathways involved, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) have been reported to play a critical role. Magnesium (Mg)-based alloys, including Mg-Zn alloy, have been used clinically as implants in the musculoskeletal field and could promote BMSC osteogenic differentiation. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we produced Mg-Zn alloy consists of Mg and low concentrations of Zn, calcium carbonate, and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP; manifesting process not shown), prepared Mg, Zn, and Mg-Zn extracts, and investigated the specific effects of these extracts on human BMSC (hBMSC) osteogenic differentiation and MAPK signaling. Mg extracts and Mg-Zn extracts could significantly promote the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs as manifested as increased alkaline phosphatase levels, enhanced calcium nodules formation, and increased messenger RNA expression and protein levels of osteogenesis markers, including BMPs, Col-I, Runx2, and Osx; in the meantime, Mg culture medium (CM) and Mg-Zn CM both significantly enhanced the activation of MAPK signaling in hBMSCs. By adding ERK1/2 signaling, p38 signaling, or JNK signaling inhibitor to Mg-Zn CM, or conducting p38 MAPK silence in hBMSCs, we revealed that these extracts might promote hBMSC osteogenic differentiation via p38 MAPK signaling and MAPK-regulated Runx2/Osx. In conclusion, Mg2+ in β-TCP/Mg-Zn extract promotes the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs via MAPK-regulated Runx2/Osx interaction.

Abstract
Collagen peptides can promote wound healing and are closely related to microbiome colonization. We investigated the relationship among collagen peptides, wound healing, and wound microflora colonization by administering the murine wound model with Salmo salar skin collagen peptides (Ss-SCPs) and Tilapia nilotica skin collagen peptides (Tn-SCPs). We analyzed the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), fibroblast growth factors (β-FGF), pattern recognition receptor (NOD2), antimicrobial peptides (β-defence14, BD14), proinflammatory (TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10) cytokines, macrophages, neutrophil infiltration levels, and microbial communities in the rat wound. The healing rates of the Ss-SCP- and Tn-SCP-treated groups were significantly accelerated, associated with decreased TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-8 and upregulated BD14, NOD2, IL-10, VEGF, and β-FGF. Accelerated healing in the collagen peptide group shows that the wound microflora such as Leuconostoc, Enterococcus, and Bacillus have a positive effect on wound healing (P < 0.01). Other microbiome species such as Stenotrophomonas, Bradyrhizobium, Sphingomonas, and Phyllobacterium had a negative influence and decreased colonization (P < 0.01). Altogether, these studies show that collagen peptide could upregulate wound NOD2 and BD14, which were implicated in microflora colonization regulation in the wound tissue and promoted wound healing by controlling the inflammatory reaction and increasing wound angiogenesis and collagen deposition.

Enhancing biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of biodegradable Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy by preparing PDA/HA coating for potential application of cardiovascular biomaterials. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2019; 109:110607. [PMID: 32228927 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2019.110607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 43] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2019] [Revised: 12/20/2019] [Accepted: 12/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
In this paper the poly-dopamine (PDA)/hyaluronic acid (HA) coatings with different HA molecular weight (MW, 4 × 103, 1 × 105, 5 × 105 and 1 × 106 Da) were prepared onto the NaOH passivated Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy aiming at potential application of cardiovascular implants. The characterization of weight loss, polarization curves and surface morphology indicated that the coatings with HA MW of 1 × 105 (PDA/HA-2) and 1 × 106 Da (PDA/HA-4) significantly enhanced the corrosion resistance of Mg-Zn-Y-Nd. In vitro biological test also suggested better hemocompatibility, pro-endothelialization, anti-hyperplasia and anti-inflammation functions of the PDA/HA-2- and PDA/HA-4-coated Mg-Zn-Y-Nd alloy. Nevertheless, the in vivo implantation of SD rats' celiac artery demonstrated that the PDA/HA-2 had preferable corrosion resistance and biocompatibility.
