Salètes M, Vartin M, Mocquot C, Chevalier C, Grosgogeat B, Colon P, Attik N. Mesoporous Bioactive Glasses Cytocompatibility Assessment: A Review of In Vitro Studies. Biomimetics (Basel) 2021; 6:9. [PMID: 33498616 PMCID: PMC7839003 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics6010009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2020] [Revised: 01/11/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Thanks to their high porosity and surface area, mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs) have gained significant interest in the field of medical applications, in particular, with regards to enhanced bioactive properties which facilitate bone regeneration. The aim of this article is to review the state of the art regarding the biocompatibility evaluation of MBGs and provide a discussion of the various approaches taken. The research was performed using PubMed database and covered articles published in the last five years. From a total of 91 articles, 63 were selected after analyzing them according to our inclusion and exclusion criteria. In vitro methodologies and techniques used for biocompatibility assessment were investigated. Among the biocompatibility assessment techniques, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been widely used to study cell morphology and adhesion. Viability and proliferation were assessed using different assays including cell counting and/or cell metabolic activity measurement. Finally, cell differentiation tests relied on the alkaline phosphatase assay; however, these were often complemented by specific bimolecular tests according to the exact application of the mesoporous bioactive glass. The standardization and validation of all tests performed for MBG cytocompatibility is a key aspect and crucial point and should be considered in order to avoid inconsistencies, bias between studies, and unnecessary consumption of time. Therefore, introducing standard tests would serve an important role in the future assessment and development of MBG materials.

Abstract
Control of the spatial distribution of various cell types is required to construct functional tissues. Here, we report a simple topographical structure changed the spatial cell density. A concave curved boundary was designed, which allowed the spatial descent moving of cells and the change in spatial distributions of co-cultured cells. We utilized the difference in cell motility between myoblast cells (C2C12) and neuronal cells (PC12) to demonstrate the feasibility of spontaneous change in spatial cell density. Without the curved boundaries, high motility cells (C2C12) did not migrate to the adjacent area, which resulted in a slight temporal change (< 15%) in the spatial cell distribution. In contrast, with the curved boundaries, the cell density of the high motility cells in the groove to those cells on the ridge showed an increase exceeding 45%. On the other hand, the temporal change in the spatial cell distribution of low motility cells (PC12) was below 15% with or without the curved boundaries. In addition, as groove width increased, both cells displayed more initially gathering in groove. Importantly, these cell-type dependent results were also maintained under co-culture conditions. Our results suggest that designing topographical interfaces changes spatial cell density without any manipulation and is useful for multi-cellular constructs.

Abstract
Cell migration, critical to numerous biological processes, can be guided by surface topography. Studying the effects of topography on cell migration is valuable for enhancing our understanding of directional cell migration and for functionally engineering cell behavior. However, fabrication limitations constrain topography studies to geometries that may not adequately mimic physiological environments. Direct Laser Writing (DLW) provides the necessary 3D flexibility and control to create well-defined waveforms with curvature and length scales that are similar to those found in physiological settings, such as the luminal walls of blood vessels that endothelial cells migrate along. We find that endothelial cells migrate fastest along square waves, intermediate along triangular waves, and slowest along sine waves and that directional cell migration on sine waves decreases as sinusoid wavelength increases. Interestingly, inhibition of Rac1 decreases directional migration on sine wave topographies but not on flat surfaces with micropatterned lines, suggesting that cells may utilize different molecular pathways to sense curved topographies. Our study demonstrates that DLW can be employed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of topography on cell migration by fabricating a wide array of physiologically-relevant surfaces with curvatures that are challenging to fabricate using conventional manufacturing techniques.

Abstract
Placing cells in the proper position is important for tissue engineering. Previous works addressed this subject in the way of controlling cell migration by micro- or nano-patterning the substrates. However, the problem of changing spatial cell density freely under co-culture conditions is remaining. To solve this problem, in this work, we report that C2C12 spatial cell density changes by the patterning geometric boundary of the topographical structures. In 48 h after seeding cells, at the linear boundary (ridge-groove) structures, C2C12 Groove/Ridge ratio was under 0.70 both under monoculture conditions and under co-culture conditions. In contrast, at the combining the linear boundary and the round boundary (ridge-groove + hole) structures, the ratio was over 0.89 under both culture conditions. This our finding will provide a new device which enables to manipulate spatial cell density under co-culture conditions for heterogeneous tissue engineering.

Dynamics of Actin Stress Fibers and Focal Adhesions during Slow Migration in Swiss 3T3 Fibroblasts: Intracellular Mechanism of Cell Turning. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2016; 2016:5749749.

Abstract
To understand the mechanism regulating the spontaneous change in polarity that leads to cell turning, we quantitatively analyzed the dynamics of focal adhesions (FAs) coupling with the self-assembling actin cytoskeletal structure in Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts. Fluorescent images were acquired from cells expressing GFP-actin and RFP-zyxin by laser confocal microscopy. On the basis of the maximum area, duration, and relocation distance of FAs extracted from the RFP-zyxin images, the cells could be divided into 3 regions: the front region, intermediate lateral region, and rear region. In the intermediate lateral region, FAs appeared close to the leading edge and were stabilized gradually as its area increased. Simultaneously, bundled actin stress fibers (SFs) were observed vertically from the positions of these FAs, and they connected to the other SFs parallel to the leading edge. Finally, these connecting SFs fused to form a single SF with matured FAs at both ends. This change in SF organization with cell retraction in the first cycle of migration followed by a newly formed protrusion in the next cycle is assumed to lead to cell turning in migrating Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts.

Abstract
Wound healing is an essential physiological process for tissue homeostasis, involving multiple types of cells, extracellular matrices, and growth factor/chemokine interactions. Many in vitro studies have investigated the interactions between cues mentioned above; however, most of them only focused on a single factor. In the present study, we design a wound healing device to recapitulate in vivo complex microenvironments and heterogeneous cell situations to investigate how three types of physiologically related cells interact with their microenvironments around and with each other during a wound healing process. Briefly, a microfluidic device with a micropillar substrate, where diameter and interspacing can be tuned to mimic the topographical features of the 3D extracellular matrix, was designed to perform positional cell loading on the micropillar substrate, co-culture of three types of physiologically related cells, keratinocytes, dermal fibroblasts, and human umbilical vein endothelial cells, as well as an investigation of their interactions during wound healing. The result showed that cell attachment, morphology, cytoskeleton distribution, and nucleus shape were strongly affected by the micropillars, and these cells showed collaborative response to heal the wound. Taken together, these findings highlight the dynamic relationship between cells and their microenvironments. Also, this reproducible device may facilitate the in vitro investigation of numerous physiological and pathological processes such as cancer metastasis, angiogenesis, and tissue engineering.

Abstract
The physiological role of the actin cytoskeleton is well known: it provides mechanical support and endogenous force generation for formation of a cell shape and for migration. Furthermore, a growing number of studies have demonstrated another significant role of the actin cytoskeleton: it offers dynamic epigenetic memory for guiding cell fate, in particular, proliferation and differentiation. Because instantaneous imbalance in the mechanical homeostasis is adjusted through actin remodeling, a synthetic extracellular matrix (ECM) niche as a source of topographical and mechanical cues is expected to be effective at modulation of the actin cytoskeleton. In this context, the synthetic ECM niche determines cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation, all of which have to be controlled in functional tissue engineering scaffolds to ensure proper regulation of tissue/organ formation, maintenance of tissue integrity and repair, and regeneration. Here, with an emphasis on the epigenetic role of the actin cytoskeletal system, we propose a design concept of micro/nanotopography of a tissue engineering scaffold for control of cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation in a stable and well-defined manner, both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
The development of biomaterials ensuring proper cell adhesion, polarization, migration and differentiation represents a true enabler for successful tissue-engineering applications. Surface nanostructuring was suggested as a promising method for improving cell-substrate interaction. Here, we study Wharton's Jelly human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (WJ-hMSC) interacting with nanogratings (NGs) having a controlled amount of nanotopographical noise (nTN). Our data demonstrate that unperturbed NGs induce cell polarization, alignment and migration along NG lines. The introduction of nTN dramatically modifies this behavior and leads to a marked loss of cell polarization and directional migration, even at low noise levels. High-resolution focal adhesions (FAs) imaging showed that this behavior is caused by the release of the geometrical vinculum imposed by the NGs to FA shaping and maturation. We argue that highly anisotropic nanopatterned scaffolds can be successfully exploited to drive stem cell migration in regenerative medicine protocols and discuss the impact of scaffold alterations or wear.

Abstract
The epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) involves several physiological and pathological phenomena and endows cells with invasive and migratory properties. However, the effects of substrate stiffness and topography on the migration of cells before or after transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-induced EMT (tEMT) are unknown. Herein, we seed control or tEMT NMuMG cells on the 2D patterns consisted of 1 μm or 5 μm line-widths and groove or cone patterns on either 2 MPa (1.96 ± 0.48 MPa) or 4 MPa (3.70 ± 0.74 MPa) polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates. After tEMT, the increased expression of α-SMA with vinculin in focal adhesion (FA) sites led to an acceleration of tEMT cell motility. On the 2 MPa substrate, the most influenced substrate was the 1 μm, cone-patterned substrate, where the tEMT cells' motility decelerated by 0.13 μm/min (36% slower than the cells on groove pattern). However, on the 5 μm, groove-patterned substrate, where the tEMT cells demonstrated the most rapid motility relative to the control cells, with an increment of 0.18 μm/min (100%). Among the different physical cues from substrate, the cone pattern could impede the migration speed of tEMT cells. Furthermore, we recommend the groove-patterned with a 5 μm line-width substrate as a useful tool to differentiate control and tEMT cells by migration speed.

Abstract
Cochlear implants (CIs) provide auditory perception to individuals with severe hearing impairment. However, their ability to encode complex auditory stimuli is limited due, in part, to poor spatial resolution caused by electrical current spread in the inner ear. Directing nerve cell processes towards target electrodes may reduce the problematic current spread and improve stimulatory specificity. In this work, photopolymerization was used to fabricate micro- and nano-patterned methacrylate polymers to probe the extent of spiral ganglion neuron (SGN) neurite and Schwann cell (SGSC) contact guidance based on variations in substrate topographical cues. Micropatterned substrates are formed in a rapid, single-step reaction by selectively blocking light with photomasks which have parallel line-space gratings with periodicities of 10-100 μm. Channel amplitudes of 250 nm-10 μm are generated by modulating UV exposure time, light intensity, and photoinitiator concentration. Gradual transitions are observed between ridges and grooves using scanning electron and atomic force microscopy. The transitions stand in contrast to vertical features generated via etching lithographic techniques. Alignment of neural elements increases significantly with increasing feature amplitude and constant periodicity, as well as with decreasing periodicity and constant amplitude. SGN neurite alignment strongly correlates (r = 0.93) with maximum feature slope. Multiple neuronal and glial types orient to the patterns with varying degrees of alignment. This work presents a method to fabricate gradually-sloping micropatterns for cellular contact guidance studies and demonstrates spatial control of inner ear neural elements in response to micro- and nano-scale surface topography.

Abstract
Cells in their in vivo microenvironment constantly encounter and respond to a multitude of signals. While the role of biochemical signals has long been appreciated, the importance of biophysical signals has only recently been investigated. Biophysical cues are presented in different forms including topography and mechanical stiffness imparted by the extracellular matrix and adjoining cells. Microfabrication technologies have allowed for the generation of biomaterials with microscale topographies to study the effect of biophysical cues on cellular function at the cell-substrate interface. Topographies of different geometries and with varying microscale dimensions have been used to better understand cell adhesion, migration, and differentiation at the cellular and sub-cellular scales. Furthermore, quantification of cell-generated forces has been illustrated with micropillar topographies to shed light on the process of mechanotransduction. In this review, we highlight recent advances made in these areas and how they have been utilized for neural, cardiac, and musculoskeletal tissue engineering application.

Abstract
We present a methodology for integrative multiscale analysis to highlight hierarchical properties of cellular protrusion and mechanochemical interactions in cellular protrusion based on live cell imaging data with high spatiotemporal resolution. As an appropriate experimental system, we selected non-polarized full-moon-shaped keratocytes that present balanced protrusion around the entire cell periphery at the cellular scale simultaneously with active protrusion and retraction at the subcellular scale. We achieved the observation of a whole cell with sub-micrometer spatial precision and sub-second time resolution for three minutes or more. The multiscale characteristics of cell peripheral activity and those of the cell peripheral shape were extracted from an identical image sequence by estimating the cell protrusion rates and the cell peripheral curvatures at various differential intervals. The spatiotemporal maps of the cell protrusion rates demonstrated a spatiotemporally nested structure of travelling waves of active protruding regions at the cellular and subcellular scales. Moreover, correlation analysis demonstrated the relationship between the cell protrusion rate and peripheral curvature at the subcellular scale. The novel integrative methodology presented here well highlighted the hierarchical properties of organized cellular protrusion, and further provided insight about the underlying mechanochemical interactions between the cell membrane and the actin filaments under the membrane.
