Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in irreversible loss of sensory and motor functions, and most SCIs are incurable with current medical practice. One of the hardest challenges in treating SCI is the development of a dysfunctional pathological microenvironment, which mainly comprises excessive inflammation, deposition of inhibitory molecules, neurotrophic factor deprivation, glial scar formation, and imbalance of vascular function. To overcome this challenge, implantation of functional biomaterials at the injury site has been regarded as a potential treatment for modulating the dysfunctional microenvironment to support axon regeneration, remyelination at injury site, and functional recovery after SCI. This review summarizes characteristics of dysfunctional pathological microenvironment and recent advances in biomaterials as well as the technologies used to modulate inflammatory microenvironment, regulate inhibitory microenvironment, and reshape revascularization microenvironment. Moreover, technological limitations, challenges, and future prospects of functional biomaterials to promote efficient repair of SCI are also discussed. This review will aid further understanding and development of functional biomaterials to regulate pathological SCI microenvironment.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) often results in motor and sensory deficits, or even paralysis. Due to the role of the cascade reaction, the effect of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the early and middle stages of SCI severely damage neurons, and most antioxidants cannot consistently eliminate ROS at non-toxic doses, which leads to a huge compromise in antioxidant treatment of SCI. Selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) have excellent ROS scavenging bioactivity, but the toxicity control problem limits the therapeutic window. Here, we propose a synergistic therapeutic strategy of SeNPs encapsulated by ZIF-8 (SeNPs@ZIF-8) to obtain synergistic ROS scavenging activity. Three different spatial structures of SeNPs@ZIF-8 were synthesized and coated with ferrostatin-1, a ferroptosis inhibitor (FSZ NPs), to achieve enhanced anti-oxidant and anti-ferroptosis activity without toxicity. FSZ NPs promoted the maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis, thereby regulating the expression of inflammatory factors and promoting the polarization of macrophages into M2 phenotype. In addition, the FSZ NPs presented strong abilities to promote neuronal maturation and axon growth through activating the WNT4-dependent pathways, while prevented glial scar formation. The current study demonstrates the powerful and versatile bioactive functions of FSZ NPs for SCI treatment and offers inspiration for other neural injury diseases.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a common neurological disease worldwide, often resulting in a substantial decrease in quality of life, disability, and in severe cases, even death. Unfortunately, there is currently no effective treatment for this disease. Nevertheless, current basic and clinical evidence suggests that vitamins, with their antioxidant properties and biological functions, may play a valuable role in improving the quality of life for individuals with SCI. They can promote overall health and facilitate the healing process. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms and therapeutic potential of vitamins in the treatment of SCI.

Targeting SUMOylation with an injectable nanocomposite hydrogel to optimize radiofrequency ablation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:338. [PMID: 38890737 PMCID: PMC11184877 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02579-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Incomplete radiofrequency ablation (iRFA) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) often leads to local recurrence and distant metastasis of the residual tumor. This is closely linked to the development of a tumor immunosuppressive environment (TIME). In this study, underlying mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets involved in the formation of TIME in residual tumors following iRFA were explored. Then, TAK-981-loaded nanocomposite hydrogel was constructed, and its therapeutic effects on residual tumors were investigated. RESULTS This study reveals that the upregulation of small ubiquitin-like modifier 2 (Sumo2) and activated SUMOylation is intricately tied to immunosuppression in residual tumors post-iRFA. Both knockdown of Sumo2 and inhibiting SUMOylation with TAK-981 activate IFN-1 signaling in HCC cells, thereby promoting dendritic cell maturation. Herein, we propose an injectable PDLLA-PEG-PDLLA (PLEL) nanocomposite hydrogel which incorporates self-assembled TAK-981 and BSA nanoparticles for complementary localized treatment of residual tumor after iRFA. The sustained release of TAK-981 from this hydrogel curbs the expansion of residual tumors and notably stimulates the dendritic cell and cytotoxic lymphocyte-mediated antitumor immune response in residual tumors while maintaining biosafety. Furthermore, the treatment with TAK-981 nanocomposite hydrogel resulted in a widespread elevation in PD-L1 levels. Combining TAK-981 nanocomposite hydrogel with PD-L1 blockade therapy synergistically eradicates residual tumors and suppresses distant tumors. CONCLUSIONS These findings underscore the potential of the TAK-981-based strategy as an effective therapy to enhance RFA therapy for HCC.

Abstract
A persistent inflammatory response, intrinsic limitations in axonal regenerative capacity, and widespread presence of extrinsic axonal inhibitors impede the restoration of motor function after a spinal cord injury (SCI). A versatile treatment platform is urgently needed to address diverse clinical manifestations of SCI. Herein, we present a multifunctional nanoplatform with anisotropic bimodal mesopores for effective neural circuit reconstruction after SCI. The hierarchical nanoplatform features of a Janus structure consist of dual compartments of hydrophilic mesoporous silica (mSiO2) and hydrophobic periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO), each possessing distinct pore sizes of 12 and 3 nm, respectively. Unlike traditional hierarchical mesoporous nanomaterials with dual-mesopores interlaced with each other, the two sets of mesopores in this Janus nanoplatform are spatially independent and possess completely distinct chemical properties. The Janus mesopores facilitate controllable codelivery of dual drugs with distinct properties: the hydrophilic macromolecular enoxaparin (ENO) and the hydrophobic small molecular paclitaxel (PTX). Anchoring with CeO2, the resulting mSiO2&PMO-CeO2-PTX&ENO nanoformulation not only effectively alleviates ROS-induced neuronal apoptosis but also enhances microtubule stability to promote intrinsic axonal regeneration and facilitates axonal extension by diminishing the inhibitory effect of extracellular chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. We believe that this functional dual-mesoporous nanoplatform holds significant potential for combination therapy in treating severe multifaceted diseases.

Abstract
It is challenging to sufficiently regulate endogenous neuronal reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, reduce neuronal apoptosis, and reconstruct neural networks under spinal cord injury conditions. Here, hydrogel surface grafting and microsol electrospinning are used to construct a composite biomimetic scaffold with "external-endogenous" dual regulation of ROS. The outer hydrogel enhances local autophagy through responsive degradation and rapid release of rapamycin (≈80% within a week), neutralizing extracellular ROS and inhibiting endogenous ROS production, further reducing neuronal apoptosis. The inner directional fibers continuously supply brain-derived neurotrophic factors to guide axonal growth. The results of in vitro co-culturing show that the dual regulation of oxidative metabolism by the composite scaffold approximately doubles the neuronal autophagy level, reduces 60% of the apoptosis induced by oxidative stress, and increases the differentiation of neural stem cells into neuron-like cells by ≈2.5 times. The in vivo results show that the composite fibers reduce the ROS levels by ≈80% and decrease the formation of scar tissue. RNA sequencing results show that composite scaffolds upregulate autophagy-associated proteins, antioxidase genes, and axonal growth proteins. The developed composite biomimetic scaffold represents a therapeutic strategy to achieve neurofunctional recovery through programmed and accurate bidirectional regulation of the ROS cascade response.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a traumatic neurological disorder with limited therapeutic options. Tumor protein p53-inducible nuclear protein 2 (TP53INP2) is involved in the occurrence and development of various diseases, and it may play a role during SCI via affecting inflammation and neuronal apoptosis. This study investigated the associated roles and mechanisms of TP53INP2 in SCI. METHODS Mouse and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced SCI BV-2 cell models were constructed to explore the role of TP53INP2 in SCI and the associated mechanisms. Histopathological evaluation of spinal cord tissue was detected by hematoxylin and eosin staining. The Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan score was used to measure the motor function of the mice, while the spinal cord water content was used to assess spinal cord edema. The expression of TP53INP2 was measured using RT-qPCR. In addition, inflammatory factors in the spinal cord tissue of SCI mice and LPS-treated BV-2 cells were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Apoptosis and related protein expression levels were detected by flow cytometry and western blot analysis, respectively. RESULTS TP53INP2 levels increased in SCI mice and LPS-treated BV-2 cells. The results of in vivo and in vitro experiments showed that TP53INP2 knockdown inhibited the inflammatory response and neuronal apoptosis in mouse spinal cord tissue or LPS-induced BV-2 cells. CONCLUSIONS After spinal cord injury, TP53INP2 was upregulated, and TP53INP2 knockdown inhibited the inflammatory response and apoptosis.

Abstract
Implantable biomaterials and biosensors are integral components of modern medical systems but often encounter hindrances due to the foreign body response (FBR). Herein, we report an albumin coating strategy aimed at addressing this challenge. Using a facile and scalable silane coupling strategy, human serum albumin (HSA) is covalently grafted to the surface of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) implants. This covalently grafted albumin coating remains stable and resistant to displacement by other proteins. Notably, the PDMS with covalently grafted HSA strongly resists the fibrotic capsule formation following a 180-day subcutaneous implantation in C57BL/6 mice. Furthermore, the albumin coating led to reduced recruitment of macrophages and triggered a mild immune activation pattern. Exploration of albumin coatings sourced from various mammalian species has shown that only HSA exhibited a promising anti-FBR effect. The albumin coating method reported here holds the potential to improve and extend the function of silicone-based implants by mitigating the host responses to subcutaneously implanted biomaterials.

Abstract
The microenvironment after traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) involves complex pathological processes, including elevated oxidative stress, accumulated reactive aldehydes from lipid peroxidation, excessive immune cell infiltration, etc. Unfortunately, most of current neuroprotection therapies cannot cope with the intricate pathophysiology of SCI, leading to scant treatment efficacies. Here, we developed a facile in situ reaction-induced self-assembly method to prepare aldehyde-scavenging polypeptides (PAH)-curcumin conjugate nanoassemblies (named as PFCN) for combined neuroprotection in SCI. The prepared PFCN could release PAH and curcumin in response to oxidative and acidic SCI microenvironment. Subsequently, PFCN exhibited an effectively neuroprotective effect through scavenging toxic aldehydes as well as reactive nitrogen and oxygen species in neurons, modulating microglial M1/M2 polarization, and down-regulating the expression of inflammation-related cytokines to inhibit neuroinflammation. The intravenous administration of PFCN could significantly ameliorate the malignant microenvironment of injured spinal cord, protect the neurons, and promote the motor function recovery in the contusive SCI rat model.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a prevalent inflammatory autoimmune disease characterised by persistent inflammation and joint damage with elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Current treatment modalities for RA have significant limitations, including poor bioavailability, severe side effects, and inadequate targeting of inflamed joints. Herein, we synthesised cerium/manganese oxide nanoparticles (NPs) as efficient drug carriers with antioxidant and catalytic-like functions that can eliminate ROS to facilitate the polarization of macrophages phenotype from M1 to M2 and alleviate inflammation. Methotrexate (MTX), a first-line RA medication, was loaded into the NPs, which were further modified with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and integrated into dissolving hyaluronic acid-based microneedles (MNs) for transdermal delivery. RESULT This innovative approach significantly enhanced drug delivery efficiency, reduced RA inflammation, and successfully modulated macrophage polarization toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype. CONCLUSION This research not only presents a promising drug delivery strategy for RA but also contributes broadly to the field of immune disease treatment by offering an advanced approach for macrophage phenotypic reprogramming.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a severe neurological disorder characterized by significant disability and limited treatment options. Mitigating the secondary inflammatory response following the initial injury is the primary focus of current research in the treatment of SCI. CCL2 (C─C motif chemokine ligand 2) serves as the primary regulator responsible for inflammatory chemotaxis of the majority of peripheral immune cells, blocking the CCL2-CCR2 (C─C chemokine receptor type 2) axis has shown considerable therapeutic potential for inflammatory diseases, including SCI. In this study, it presents a multifunctional biomimetic nanoplatform (CCR2-MM@PLGA/Cur) specifically designed to target the CCL2-CCR2 axis, which consisted of an engineered macrophage membrane (MM) coating with enhanced CCR2 expression and a PLGA (poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)) nanoparticle that encapsulated therapeutic drugs. CCR2 overexpression on MM not only enhanced drug-targeted delivery to the injury site, but also attenuated macrophage infiltration, microglia pro-inflammatory polarization, and neuronal apoptosis by trapping CCL2. Consequently, it facilitated neural regeneration and motor function recovery in SCI mice, enabling a comprehensive treatment approach for SCI. The feasibility and efficacy of this platform are confirmed through a series of in vitro and in vivo assays, offering new insights and potential avenues for further exploration in the treatment of SCI.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an unfortunate experience that may generate extensive sensory and motor disabilities due to the destruction and passing of nerve cells. MicroRNAs are small RNA molecules that do not code for proteins but instead serve to regulate protein synthesis by targeting messenger RNA's expression. After SCI, secondary damage like apoptosis, oxidative stress, inflammation, and autophagy occurs, and differentially expressed microRNAs show a function in these procedures. Almost all animal and plant cells release exosomes, which are sophisticated formations of lipid membranes. These exosomes have the capacity to deliver significant materials, such as proteins, RNAs and lipids, to cells in need, regulating their functions and serving as a way of communication. This new method offers a fresh approach to treating spinal cord injury. Obviously, the exosome has the benefit of conveying the transported material across performing regulatory activities and the blood-brain barrier. Among the exosome cargoes, microRNAs, which modulate their mRNA targets, show considerable promise in the pathogenic diagnosis, process, and therapy of SCI. Herein, we describe the roles of microRNAs in SCI. Furthermore, we emphasize the importance of exosomal microRNAs in this disease.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common type of age‑related dementia, and causes progressive memory degradation, neuronal loss and brain atrophy. The pathological hallmarks of AD consist of amyloid‑β (Aβ) plaque accumulation and abnormal neurofibrillary tangles. Amyloid fibrils are constructed from Aβ peptides, which are recognized to assemble into toxic oligomers and exert cytotoxicity. The fibrillar Aβ‑protein fragment 25‑35 (Aβ25‑35) induces local inflammation, thereby exacerbating neuronal apoptosis. Notoginsenoside R1 (NGR1), one of the primary bioactive ingredients isolated from Panax notoginseng, exhibits effective anti‑inflammatory and anti‑oxidative activities. However, NGR1 pharmacotherapies targeting Aβ‑induced inflammation and cell injury cascade remain to be elucidated. The present study investigated the effect and mechanism of NGR1 in Aβ25‑35‑treated PC12 cells. NGR1 doses between 250 and 1,000 µg/ml significantly increased cell viability suppressed by 20 µM Aβ25‑35 peptide treatment. Notably, the present study demonstrated that Aβ25‑35 peptide‑induced sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1) signaling activation was reduced after NGR1 treatment, further inhibiting the downstream NF‑κB inflammatory signaling pathway. In addition, administration of SphK1 inhibitor II (SKI‑II), a SphK1 inhibitor, also significantly reduced Aβ25‑35 peptide‑induced apoptosis and the ratio of NF‑κB p‑p65/p65. Furthermore, SphK1 knockdown in PC12 cells using small interfering RNA alleviated Aβ‑induced cell apoptosis and inflammation, suggesting a pivotal role of SphK1 signaling in the anti‑inflammatory effect of NGR1. In summary, NGR1 alleviated inflammation and apoptosis stimulated by Aβ25‑35 by inhibiting the SphK1/NF‑κB signaling pathway and may be a promising agent for future AD treatment.

Abstract
Central nervous system (CNS) diseases are a leading cause of death and disability. Due to CNS neurons have no self-renewal and regenerative ability as they mature, their loss after injury or disease is irreversible and often leads to functional impairments. Unfortunately, therapeutic options for CNS diseases are still limited, and effective treatments for these notorious diseases are warranted to be explored. At present, stem cell therapy has emerged as a potential therapeutic strategy for improving the prognosis of CNS diseases. Accumulating preclinical and clinical evidences have demonstrated that multiple molecular mechanisms, such as cell replacement, immunoregulation and neurotrophic effect, underlie the use of stem cell therapy for CNS diseases. However, several issues have yet to be addressed to support its clinical application. Thus, this review article aims to summarize the role and underlying mechanisms of stem cell therapy in treating CNS diseases. And it is worthy of further evaluation for the potential therapeutic applications of stem cell treatment in CNS disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The formation of an inhibitory inflammatory microenvironment after spinal cord injury (SCI) remains a great challenge for nerve regeneration. The poor local microenvironment exacerbates nerve cell death; therefore, the reconstruction of a favorable microenvironment through small-molecule drugs is a promising strategy for promoting nerve regeneration. METHODS In the present study, we synthesized curcumin-loaded micelle nanoparticles (Cur-NPs) to increase curcumin bioavailability and analyzed the physical and chemical properties of Cur-NPs by characterization experiments. We established an in vivo SCI model in rats and examined the ability of hind limb motor recovery using Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan scoring and hind limb trajectory assays. We also analyzed neural regeneration after SCI using immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS The nanoparticles achieved the intelligent responsive release of curcumin while improving curcumin bioavailability. Most importantly, the released curcumin attenuated local inflammation by modulating the polarization of macrophages from an M1 pro-inflammatory phenotype to an M2 anti-inflammatory phenotype. M2-type macrophages can promote cell differentiation, proliferation, matrix secretion, and reorganization by secreting or expressing pro-repair cytokines to reduce the inflammatory response. The enhanced inflammatory microenvironment supported neuronal regeneration, nerve remyelination, and reduced scar formation. These effects facilitated functional repair in rats, mainly in the form of improved hindlimb movements. CONCLUSION Here, we synthesized pH/temperature dual-sensitive Cur-NPs. While improving the bioavailability of the drug, they were also able to achieve a smart responsive release in the inflammatory microenvironment that develops after SCI. The Cur-NPs promoted the regeneration and functional recovery of nerves after SCI through anti-inflammatory effects, providing a promising strategy for the repair of SCIs.

[PMID: 37292230 PMCID: PMC10245070 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.05.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Biomaterials can modulate the local immune and repair-supportive microenvironments to promote peripheral nerve regeneration. Inorganic bioceramics have been widely used for regulating tissue regeneration and local immune response. However, little is known on whether inorganic bioceramics can have potential for enhancing peripheral nerve regeneration and what are the mechanisms underlying their actions. Here, the inorganic lithium-magnesium-silicon (Li-Mg-Si, LMS) bioceramics containing scaffolds are fabricated and characterized. The LMS-containing scaffolds had no cytotoxicity against rat Schwann cells (SCs), but promoted their migration and differentiation towards a remyelination state by up-regulating the expression of neurotrophic factors in a β-catenin-dependent manner. Furthermore, using single cell-sequencing, we showed that LMS-containing scaffolds promoted macrophage polarization towards the pro-regenerative M2-like cells, which subsequently facilitated the migration and differentiation of SCs. Moreover, implantation with the LMS-containing nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) increased the frequency of M2-like macrophage infiltration and enhanced nerve regeneration and motor functional recovery in a rat model of sciatic nerve injury. Collectively, these findings indicated that the inorganic LMS bioceramics offered a potential strategy for enhancing peripheral nerve regeneration by modulating the immune microenvironment and promoting SCs remyelination.

Abstract
The treatment of spinal cord injury (SCI) remains unsatisfactory owing to the complex pathophysiological microenvironments at the injury site and the limited regenerative potential of the central nervous system. Metformin has been proven in clinical and animal experiments to repair damaged structures and functions by promoting endogenous neurogenesis. However, in the early stage of acute SCI, the adverse pathophysiological microenvironment of the injury sites, such as reactive oxygen species and inflammatory factor storm, can prevent the activation of endogenous neural stem cells (NSCs) and the differentiation of NSCs into neurons, decreasing the whole repair effect. To address those issues, a series of robust and multifunctional natural polyphenol-metformin nanoparticles (polyphenol-Met NPs) were fabricated with pH-responsiveness and excellent antioxidative capacities. The resulting NPs possessed several favorable advantages: First, the NPs were composed of active ingredients with different biological properties, without the need for carriers; second, the pH-responsiveness feature could allow targeted drug delivery at the injured site; more importantly, NPs enabled drugs with different performances to exhibit strong synergistic effects. The results demonstrated that the improved microenvironment by natural polyphenols boosted the differentiation of activated NSCs into neurons and oligodendrocytes, which could efficiently repair the injured nerve structures and enhance the functional recovery of the SCI rats. This work highlighted the design and fabrication of robust and multifunctional NPs for SCI treatment via efficient microenvironmental regulation and targeted NSCs activation.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is accompanied by loss of Zn2+, which is an important cause of glutamate excitotoxicity and death of local neurons as well as transplanted stem cells. Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have the potential for neural differentiation and play an immunomodulatory role in the microenvironment, making them an ideal cell source for the repair of central nerve injury, including SCI. The zeolitic imidazolate framework 8 (ZIF-8) is usually used as a drug and gene delivery carrier, which can release Zn2+ sustainedly in acidic environment. However, the roles of ZIF-8 on neural differentiation of DPSCs and the effect of combined treatment on SCI have not been explored. ZIF-8-introduced DPSCs were loaded into gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel and in situ injected into the injured site of SCI rats. Under the effect of ZIF-8, axon number and axon length of DPSCs-differentiated neuro-like cells were significantly increased. In addition, ZIF-8 protected transplanted DPSCs from apoptosis in the damaged microenvironment. ZIF-8 promotes neural differentiation and angiogenesis of DPSCs by activating the Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, which is a promising transport nanomaterial for nerve repair.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition with complex pathological mechanisms that lead to sensory, motor, and autonomic dysfunction below the site of injury. To date, no effective therapy is available for the treatment of SCI. Recently, bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) have been considered to be the most promising source for cellular therapies following SCI. The objective of the present review is to summarize the most recent insights into the cellular and molecular mechanism using BMMSC therapy to treat SCI. In this work, we review the specific mechanism of BMMSCs in SCI repair mainly from the following aspects: Neuroprotection, axon sprouting and/or regeneration, myelin regeneration, inhibitory microenvironments, glial scar formation, immunomodulation, and angiogenesis. Additionally, we summarize the latest evidence on the application of BMMSCs in clinical trials and further discuss the challenges and future directions for stem cell therapy in SCI models.

Abstract
Bioinspired by native nervous tracts, a spinal cord-mimicking model system that was composed of multiple nanofibrous yarns (NYs) ensheathed in a nanofibrous tube was constructed by an innovative electrospinning-based fabrication and integration strategy. The infilling NYs exhibited uniaxially aligned nanofibrous architecture that had a great resemblance to spatially-arranged native nervous tracts, while the outer nanofibrous tubes functioned as an artificial dura matter to provide a stable intraluminal microenvironment. The three-dimensional (3D) NYs were demonstrated to induce alignment, facilitate migration, promote neuronal differentiation, and even phenotypic maturation of seeded neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs), while inhibiting gliogenesis. Single-cell transcriptome analysis showed that the NSPC-loaded 3D NY model shared many similarities with native spinal cords, with a great increase in excitatory/inhibitory (EI) neuron ratio. Curcumin, as a model drug, was encapsulated into nanofibers of NYs to exert an antioxidant effect and enhanced axon regeneration. Overall, this study provides a new paradigm for the development of a next-generation in vitro neuronal model system via anatomically accurate nervous tract simulation and constructs a blueprint for the research on NSPC diversification in the biomimetic microenvironment.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality around the world, and surgery is still the most direct and effective way to remove ICH. However, the potential risks brought by surgery, such as normal brain tissue damage, post-operative infection, and difficulty in removing deep hematoma, are still the main problems in the surgical treatment of ICH. Activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) is reported to show a good therapeutic effect in hematoma clearance. Herein, a magnetic targeting nanocarrier loaded with a PPARγ agonist (15d-PGJ2-MNPs) is synthesized, which could be magnetically targeted and enriched in the area of the hematoma after intravenous injection. Subsequent application of focusing ultrasound (FUS) could enhance drug diffusion, which activates the PPARγ receptors on macrophages around the hematoma for better hematoma clearance. The 15d-PGJ2-MNP treatment alleviates brain injury, accelerates hematoma clearance, attenuates neuroinflammation, reduces brain edema and significantly improves the deficits in sensory and motor function and spatial learning ability in the ICH mouse model. This work proposes an effective magnetic targeting plus FUS method to treat ICH, highlighting its great potential in the treatment of hemorrhagic stroke.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an irreversible disease process with a high disability and mortality rate. After primary spinal cord injury, the secondary injury may occur in sequence, which is composed of ischemia and hypoxia, excitotoxicity, calcium overload, oxidative stress and inflammation, resulting in massive death of parenchymal cells in the injured area, followed by the formation of syringomyelia. Effectively curbing the process of secondary injury can promote nerve repair and improve functional prognosis. As the main active ingredient in turmeric, curcumin can play an important role in reducing inflammation and oxidation, protecting the neurons, and ultimately reducing spinal cord injury. This article reviews the effects of curcumin on the repair of nerve injury, with emphasis on the various mechanisms by which curcumin promotes the treatment of spinal cord injury.

Abstract
Neural stem cells (NSCs) are considered to be prospective replacements for neuronal cell loss as a result of spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the survival and neuronal differentiation of NSCs are strongly affected by the unfavorable microenvironment induced by SCI, which critically impairs their therapeutic ability to treat SCI. Herein, a strategy to fabricate PDGF-MP hydrogel (PDGF-MPH) microspheres (PDGF-MPHM) instead of bulk hydrogels is proposed to dramatically enhance the efficiency of platelet-derived growth factor mimetic peptide (PDGF-MP) in activating its receptor. PDGF-MPHM were fabricated by a piezoelectric ceramic-driven thermal electrospray device, had an average size of 9 μm, and also had the ability to activate the PDGFRβ of NSCs more effectively than PDGF-MPH. In vitro, PDGF-MPHM exerted strong neuroprotective effects by maintaining the proliferation and inhibiting the apoptosis of NSCs in the presence of myelin extracts. In vivo, PDGF-MPHM inhibited M1 macrophage infiltration and extrinsic or intrinsic cells apoptosis on the seventh day after SCI. Eight weeks after SCI, the T10 SCI treatment results showed that PDGF-MPHM + NSCs significantly promoted the survival of NSCs and neuronal differentiation, reduced lesion size, and considerably improved motor function recovery in SCI rats by stimulating axonal regeneration, synapse formation, and angiogenesis in comparison with the NSCs graft group. Therefore, our findings provide insights into the ability of PDGF-MPHM to be a promising therapeutic agent for SCI repair.
