Abstract
Critically-sized segmental bone defects represent significant challenges requiring grafts for reconstruction. 3D-printed synthetic bone grafts are viable alternatives to structural allografts if engineered to provide appropriate mechanical performance and osteoblast/osteoclast cell responses. Novel 3D-printable nanocomposites containing acrylated epoxidized soybean oil (AESO) or methacrylated AESO (mAESO), polyethylene glycol diacrylate, and nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) were produced using masked stereolithography. The effects of volume fraction of nHA and methacrylation of AESO on interactions of differentiated MC3T3-E1 osteoblast (dMC3T3-OB) and differentiated RAW264.7 osteoclast cells with 3D-printed nanocomposites were evaluated in vitro and compared with a control biomaterial, hydroxyapatite (HA). Higher nHA content and methacrylation significantly improved the mechanical properties. All nanocomposites supported dMC3T3-OB cells' adhesion and proliferation. Higher amounts of nHA enhanced cell adhesion and proliferation. mAESO in the nanocomposites resulted in greater adhesion, proliferation, and activity at day 7 compared with AESO nanocomposites. Excellent osteoclast-like cells survival, defined actin rings, and large multinucleated cells were only observed on the high nHA fraction (30%) mAESO nanocomposite and the HA control. Thus, mAESO-based nanocomposites containing higher amounts of nHA have better interactions with osteoblast-like and osteoclast-like cells, comparable with HA controls, making them a potential future alternative graft material for bone defect repair.

Abstract
Despite the self-healing capacity of bone, the regeneration of critical-size bone defects remains a major clinical challenge. In this study, nanohydroxyapatite (nHAP)/high-viscosity carboxymethyl cellulose (hvCMC, 6500 mPa·s) scaffolds and low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (HA-LIPUS) were employed to repair bone defects. First, hvCMC was prepared from ramie fiber, and the degree of substitution (DS), purity, and content of NaCl of hvCMC samples were 0.91, 99.93, and 0.017%, respectively. Besides, toxic metal contents were below the permissible limits for pharmaceutically used materials. Our results demonstrated that the hvCMC is suitable for pharmaceutical use. Second, nHAP and hvCMC were employed to prepare scaffolds by freeze-drying. The results indicated that the scaffolds were porous, and the porosity was 35.63 ± 3.52%. Subsequently, the rats were divided into four groups (n = 8) randomly: normal control (NC), bone defect (BD), bone defect treated with nHAP/hvCMC scaffolds (HA), and bone defect treated with nHAP/hvCMC scaffolds and stimulated by LIPUS (HA-LIPUS). After drilling surgery, nHAP/hvCMC scaffolds were implanted in the defect region of HA and HA-LIPUS rats. Meanwhile, HA-LIPUS rats were treated by LIPUS (1.5 MHz, 80 mW cm-2) irradiation for 2 weeks. Compared with BD rats, the maximum load and bone mineral density of HA-LIPUS rats were increased by 20.85 and 51.97%, respectively. The gene and protein results indicated that nHAP/hvCMC scaffolds and LIPUS promoted the bone defect repair and regeneration of rats significantly by activating Wnt/β-catenin and inhibiting OPG/RANKL signaling pathways. Overall, compared with BD rats, nHAP/hvCMC scaffolds and LIPUS promoted bone defect repair significantly. Furthermore, the research results also indicated that there are synergistic effects for bone defect repair between the nHAP/hvCMC scaffolds and LIPUS.

Abstract
The field of tissue engineering has recently emerged as one of the most promising approaches to address the limitations of conventional tissue replacements for severe injuries. This study introduces a chitosan-coated porous skin scaffold based on sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) and sodium alginate (SA) hydrogels, incorporating allantoin (AL) as an antibacterial agent. The NaCMC/SA hydrogel was cross-linked with epichlorohydrin (ECH) and freeze-dried to obtain a three-dimensional porous structure. The coated and non-coated scaffolds underwent comprehensive evaluation and characterization through various in-vitro analyses, including SEM imaging, swelling, degradation, and mechanical assessments. Furthermore, the scaffolds were studied regarding their allantoin (AL) release profiles, antibacterial properties, cell viability, and cell adhesion. The in-vitro analyses revealed that adding a chitosan (CS) coating and allantoin (AL) to the NaCMC/SA hydrogel significantly improved the scaffolds' antibacterial properties and cell viability. It was observed that the NaCMC:SA ratio and ECH concentration influenced the swelling capacity, biodegradation, drug release profile, and mechanical properties of the scaffolds. Samples with higher NaCMC content exhibited enhanced swelling capacity, more controlled allantoin (AL) release, and improved mechanical strength. Furthermore, the in-vivo results demonstrated that the proposed skin scaffold exhibited satisfactory biocompatibility and supported cell viability during wound healing in Wistar rats, highlighting its potential for clinical applications.

Abstract
The influence of carbohydrates on the crystallization of metal-substituted hydroxyapatite predicts its relevance to natural bone growth. This study demonstrates the role of carbohydrates in the crystallization of strontium-substituted hydroxyapatite (SHAP). The increasing order of hydroxyl groups, dextrose (monosaccharide) < maltose (disaccharide) < starch (polysaccharide), coordinated with Ca2+/Sr2+ and thus guided SHAP crystallization, with crystal size reduced from 35 to 19 nm, lattice volume increased from 518 to 537 Å3, and residual carbohydrates increased from 1.8 to 20.2 %. The variation in residual carbohydrates is due to their interaction with apatite and/or aqueous insolubility. Compared to pure SHAP, the starch-SHAP with higher residual starch showed increased water uptake from 1.23 ± 0.18 to 4.26 ± 0.21 % and degradation from 0.22 ± 0.06 to 1.53 ± 0.14 %, but decreased microhardness from 0.73 ± 0.12 to 0.38 ± 0.01 GPa and protein affinity from 4.82 ± 0.01 to 0.81 ± 0.01 μg/mg. However, its microhardness value was bone-like, and the reduced protein adsorption was masked by the rich osteogenic behaviour. In vitro cellular response demonstrated that the residual carbohydrate and strontium augmented osteocompatibility, proliferation, differentiation and biomineralization. The result concludes that carbohydrates drive SHAP crystallization, and starch-SHAP replicates natural bone.

Abstract
We report the development and evaluation of a series of well-designed single-dose extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicking nanofibers (NFs)-reinforced hydrogel (HG)-based skin substitute for wound healing. The HG matrix of the proposed skin substitute is composed of gelatin (GE) and sodium alginate (SA), and incorporates hyaluronic acid (HA) as a key component of the natural ECM, as well as the antimicrobial Punica granatum extract (PE). This HG nanocomposite was cross-linked by the biocompatible N-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) cross-linker, and was reinforced with fragmented trans-ferulic acid (FA)-loaded cellulose acetate/polycaprolactone (PCL/CA) NFs. The NFs were obtained via wet electrospinning into a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) coagulating solution to closely resemble the porous structure of the ECM fibers, which facilitates cell migration, attachment, and proliferation. The proposed design of the skin substitute allows adjustable mechanical characteristics and outstanding physical properties (swelling and biodegradability), as well as an excellent porous microstructure. The developed skin substitutes were characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and electron microscopy. In addition, the biodegradability, biocompatibility, bioactivity, mechanical, and in vitro drug release characteristics were investigated. Moreover, an in vivo excisional full-thickness defect model was conducted to assess skin regeneration and healing effectiveness. The average diameters of the plain and FA-loaded NFs are 210 ± 12 nm and 452 ± 25 nm, respectively. The developed ECM-mimicking skin substitutes demonstrated good antibacterial activity, free-radical scavenging activity, cytocompatibility, porosity, water absorption ability, and good biodegradability. In vivo application of the ECM-mimicking skin substitutes revealed their excellent wound-healing activity and their suitability for single-dose treatment of deep wounds with reducing the wound diameter to 0.95 mm after 15 days of treatment. Moreover, the histological investigation of the wound area demonstrated that the applied skin substitutes have not only enhanced the wound healing progress, but also can participate in improving the quality of the regenerated skin in the treated area via facilitating collagen fibers regeneration and deposition.

Abstract
Various materials are used in bone tissue engineering (BTE). Graphene oxide (GO) is a good candidate for BTE due to its antibacterial activity and biocompatibility. In this study, an innovative biomaterial consists of GO, agarose and hydroxyapatite (HA) was synthesized using electrophoresis system. The characterization of the synthesized biomaterial showed that needle-like crystals with high purity were formed after 10 mA/10 h of electrophoresis treatment. Furthermore, the calcium-phosphate ratio was similar to thermodynamically stable HA. In the synthesized biomaterial with addition of 1.0 wt% of GO, the colony forming units test showed significantly less Staphylococcus aureus. Initial attachment of MC3T3-E1 cells on the synthesized biomaterial was observed which showed the safety of the synthesized biomaterial for cell viability. This study showed that the synthesized biomaterial is a promising material that can be used in BTE.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is an optimized approach for bone regeneration to overcome the disadvantages of lacking donors. Biocompatibility, biodegradability, simulation of extracellular matrix (ECM), and excellent mechanical properties are essential characteristics of BTE scaffold, sometimes including drug loading capacity. Electrospinning is a simple technique to prepare fibrous scaffolds because of its efficiency, adaptability, and flexible preparation of electrospinning solution. Recent studies about electrospinning in BTE are summarized in this review. First, we summarized various types of polymers used in electrospinning and methods of electrospinning in recent work. Then, we divided them into three parts according to their main role in BTE, (1) ECM simulation, (2) mechanical support, and (3) drug delivery system.

Abstract
This research aimed to design innovative therapeutic bio-composites that enhance odontogenic and osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp-derived mesenchymal stem cells (h-DPSCs) in-vitro regeneration. Herein, we report the fabrication of scaffolds containing chitosan, Ca-SAPO-34 monometallic and/or Fe-Ca-SAPO-34 bimetallic nanoparticles by freeze-drying technique. The scaffolds and nanoparticles were characterized using ICP-AES, FT-IR, XRD, TGA, TEM, BET, SEM, and EDS methods. The effects of SAPO-34 and nanoparticles were investigated by changes on the physicochemical properties of scaffolds including swelling ratio, density, porosity, bio-degradation, mechanical behavior, and biomineralization. Cell viability, cell adhesion and cytotoxicity of Ca-SAPO-34/CS and Fe-Ca-SAPO-34 scaffolds were investigated by MTT assay and SEM on h-DPSCs which revealed cell proliferation no toxicity on scaffolds. Cell tests demonstrated that Ca-SAPO-34/CS scaffold clearly displayed a positive effect on differentiation of hDPSCs into osteogenic/odontogenic cells and moderate effect on cell proliferation. Moreover, the incorporation of Fe2O3 to Ca-SAPO-34/CS scaffold promoted the proliferation of hDPSCs and osteogenic differentiation. Alizarin red, Alkaline phosphatase and QRT-PCR results showed that Fe-Ca-loaded SAPO-34/CS can lead to osteoblast/odontoblast differentiation in DPSCs through the up-regulation of related genes, thus indicating that Fe-Ca-SAPO-34/CS has remarkable prospects as a biomaterial for hard tissue engineering.

Abstract
Here, the bio-nanocomposite (n-HFP + n-HFS)@An was developed to simultaneously immobilize Pb, Cd and As in the severely contaminated soil. The immobilization rates of diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA)/decarbonate-extracted bioavailable Pb, Cd and As were 59.87%, 31.28% and 62.30%, and the immobilization rates of their water-soluble forms were 63.12%, 60.02% and 89.39%, respectively. Moreover, the ten-year acid rain simulated leaching assay showed that the maximum cumulative release contents of Pb, Cd and As in the treated soil samples were decreased by 2.94, 2.46 and 40.60 times, comparing to the un-treated ones. Additionally, the results of SBRC (Solubility Bioaccessibility Research Consortium) revealed that the bioaccessible rates of the three metals in intestinal phase were lower than in gastric phase, and both of them decreased with increasing the immobilization time. The gastric bioaccessibility of Pb, Cd and As had a higher correlation with the contents of water-soluble forms, while the intestinal bioaccessibility was more strongly positively associated with the bioavailable forms.

Abstract
Nanoparticle-reinforced polymer-based scaffolding matrices as artificial bone-implant materials are potential suitors for bone regenerative medicine as they simulate the native bone. In the present work, a series of bioinspired, osteoconductive tricomposite scaffolds made up of nano-hydroxyapatite (NHA) embedded xanthan gum-chitosan (XAN-CHI) polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) are explored for their bone-regeneration potential. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy studies confirmed complex formation between XAN and CHI and showed strong interactions between the NHA and PEC matrix. The X-ray diffraction studies indicated regulation of the nanocomposite (NC) scaffold crystallinity by the physical cues of the PEC matrix. Further results exhibited that the XAN-CHI/NHA5 scaffold, with a 50/50 (polymer/NHA) ratio, has optimized porous structure, appropriate compressive properties, and sufficient swelling ability with slower degradation rates, which are far better than those of CHI/NHA and other XAN-CHI/NHA NC scaffolds. The simulated body fluid studies showed XAN-CHI/NHA5 generated apatite-like surface structures of a Ca/P ratio ∼1.66. Also, the in vitro cell-material interaction studies with MG-63 cells revealed that relative to the CHI/NHA NC scaffold, the cellular viability, attachment, and proliferation were better on XAN-CHI/NHA scaffold surfaces, with XAN-CHI/NHA5 specimens exhibiting an effective increment in cell spreading capacity compared to XAN-CHI/NHA4 and XAN-CHI/NHA6 specimens. The presence of an osteo-friendly environment is also indicated by enhanced alkaline phosphatase expression and protein adsorption ability. The higher expression of extracellular matrix proteins, such as osteocalcin and osteopontin, finally validated the induction of differentiation of MG-63 cells by tricomposite scaffolds. In summary, this study demonstrates that the formation of PEC between XAN and CHI and incorporation of NHA in XAN-CHI PEC developed tricomposite scaffolds with robust potential for use in bone regeneration applications.

Abstract
Scaffolding system plays an important role in the development of artificial bone for treatment of defective or diseased bone tissue. In the present work, we have developed microspheres (COS-Ag-Alg-HA) containing chitooligosaccharide (COS) coated silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with alginate (Alg) and hydroxyapatite (HA) as bone graft substitutes. The developed microspheres were characterized through various analytical techniques such as UV-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy with EDX and evaluated the mechanical strength by using universal testing machine. In addition to this, antimicrobial activity and biocompatibility of the developed microspheres were evaluated with pathogenic microbes and osteoblast-like cells, respectively. Results suggest that microspheres are rigid, and strong chemical interactions were observed between the materials. The size of the microspheres was ranging from 1.5 ± 0.5 to 4.0 ± 0.5 mm. Significant microbial inhibition was observed against Staphylococcus aureus, and the developed microspheres are biocompatible with osteoblast-like cells. Based on the aforementioned finding results, the developed microsphere is proposed to be a potential candidate for bone tissue repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Here, we fabricated thermosensitive injectable hydrogel containing poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm)-based copolymer/graphene oxide (GO) composite with different feed ratio to chitosan (CS) as a natural polymer through physical and chemical crosslinking for the proliferation and differentiation of the human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) to the osteoblasts. The PNIPAAm copolymer/GO composite was synthesized by free-radical copolymerization of (N-isopropylacrylamide) (NIPAAm), itaconic acid (IA) and maleic anhydride-modified poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) in the presence of GO and used for the preparation of the hydrogels. The formulated hydrogels were evaluated for the porous architecture, rheological behavior, compressive strength, swelling property, in vitro degradation, hemocompatibility, biocompatibility, and differentiation. The hydrogel could enhance the deposition of minerals and the activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), in large part attributable to the oxygen and amine-containing functional groups of GO and CS. The engineered hydrogel could also upregulate the expression of the Runt-related transcription factor 2 and osteocalcin in the hDPSCs cultivated in both the normal and osteogenic media. It seems to promote the absorption of osteogenic inducer too. Based on our findings, the engineered hydrogel demonstrated the osteogenic potential, upon which it is proposed as a constructing scaffold in bone tissue engineering for the transplantation of hDPSCs.

Abstract
In this study, fabrication of a three-dimensional porous scaffold was performed using freeze gelation method. Recently, fabrication of scaffolds using polymer blends has become common for many tissue engineering applications due to their unique tunable properties. In this work, we fabricated alginate-gelatin porous hydrogels for wound healing application using a new method based on some modifications to the freeze-gelation method. Alginate and gelatin were mixed in three different ratios and the resulting solutions underwent freeze gelation to obtain 3D porous matrices. We analyzed the samples using different characterization tests. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results indicated that the freeze gelation method was successful in obtaining porous morphologies for all the fabricated alginate-gelatin samples as previously was seen in single-polymer fabrication using this method. The alginate to gelatin ratio affected swelling, biodegradation, cell culture and mechanical properties of the matrices. The scaffold with the lowest content of gelatin had the highest swelling ratio while biodegradation and cell proliferation and viability were increased with the gelatin content. Regarding the mechanical properties, as the gelatin content increased, the scaffold became more ductile and showed higher tensile strength. The in-vivo results also showed the biocompatibility of the blend scaffold and its positive role in wound healing process in rats. The low-cost procedure used in this study to fabricate the porous alginate-gelatin scaffolds can be adapted and modified to suit different tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to synthesize an innovative composite scaffold, which structured of clinoptilolite-nanohydroxyapatite/chitosan-gelatin (CLN-nHA/CS-G) with enhanced attributes for utilization in the bone tissue engineering. This composite scaffold was prepared by blending the CLN, nHA, chitosan, and gelatin solution followed by a freeze-drying step. The fabricated composite scaffolds were studied using BET, FTIR, XRD, and SEM techniques. The highly porous composite scaffolds with a pore size of 200 ± 100 μm were synthesized. Moreover, the effects of CLN and nHA on the physicochemical features of the scaffold such as density, swelling ratio, biomineralization, biodegradation, and mechanical behavior were studied. Compared with CS-G scaffold, the presence of CLN and nHA leads to an increased surface area, increased biomineralization, and low rate of degradation in simulated body fluid solution (SBF) and mechanical strength. Cytotoxicity of the CLN-nHA/CS-G scaffold was studied by MTT assay on human dental pulp stem cells (h-DPSCs). The biological response of h-DPSCs showed no toxicity and studied cells proliferated and attached on the pore surfaces of the scaffold. Results indicated that introducing CLN and nHA to composite improves the scaffold characteristics in a way that makes it suitable for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The pivotal issue of skin regeneration research is the development of effective biomaterials that exhibit biological activities as fungicide and bactericide, combining simple and low cost manufacturing technologies. In this context, nanocomposite scaffolds based on chitosan (Ch)/Laponite (Lap) were produced by using different concentrations of Lap via freeze-drying process for potential application in skin regeneration. The influence of Lap concentration on the scaffold properties was evaluated. The prepared scaffolds were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), porosity, swelling capacity, and mechanical analyses. The results revealed that the scaffolds exhibited a porous architecture, besides the increase in the clay content, leads to an increase in the porosity, an improvement of mechanical strength, and a decrease of swelling capacity. In vitro tests were also carried out to evaluate the biocompatibility of the materials, such as bioadhesion, antibacterial activity, viability, and cell adhesion. Viability and cell adhesion demonstrated that all scaffolds were not cytotoxic and the fibroblast cells readily attached on the surface of the scaffolds. Thereby, the results suggested that the nanocomposite scaffolds are biomaterials potentially useful as wound dressings.

Abstract
A simple method to modify hydroxyapatite and pectin into an efficient zinc sorbent was investigated. Process and formulation modifications enabled the formation of a flower-like hydroxyapatite/pectin hybrid material. The hybrid material was characterized with scanning electron microscopy, elemental analysis, and zeta potential tests. Sorption data were analyzed with different kinetic and isotherm models. The results showed that the pseudo-second order kinetic model and two-staged isotherm curves with Langmuir at the first stage and a Freundlich model the at second stage could best describe the zinc sorption on the hybrid. The maximum experimental sorption capacity was 330.4 mg Zn2+ per gram of sorbent, which was obtained with an initial concentration of 260 mg L-1 Zn2+ at pH 5.0. pH monitoring and Zeta potential tests suggested surface complexation and electrostatic attraction were fundamental in the zinc sorption process.

Abstract
Poly-(lactide-co-glycolide acid) (PLGA) has been widely investigated as scaffold material for bone tissue engineering owing to its biosafety, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. However, the bioinert surface of PLGA may fail in regulating cellular behavior and directing osteointegration between the scaffold and the host tissue. In this article, oxidized chondroitin sulfate (oCS) and type I collagen (Col I) were assembled onto PLGA surface via layer by layer technique (LbL) as an adhesive coating for the attachment of inorganic minerals. The multilayer-modified PLGA scaffold was mineralized in vitro to ensure the deposition of nanohydroxyapatite (nHAP). It was found that nHAP crystals were more uniformly and firmly attached on the multilayer-modified PLGA as compared with the pure PLGA scaffold, which remarkably improved PLGA surface and mechanical properties. Additionally, in vitro biocompatibility of PLGA scaffold, in terms of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) attachment, spreading and proliferation was greatly enhanced by nHAP coating and multilayer deposition. Furthermore, the fabricated composite scaffold also shows the ability to promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs through the up-regulation of osteogenic marker genes. Thus, this novel biomimetic composite scaffold might achieve a desirable therapeutic result for bone tissue regeneration. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Simultaneous immobilization of cadmium and lead in contaminated soils by hybrid bio-nanocomposites of fungal hyphae and nano-hydroxyapatites. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 25:11970-11980. [PMID: 29450775 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-018-1492-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2017] [Accepted: 02/05/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Self-aggregation of bulk nano-hydroxyapatites (n-HAPs) undermines their immobilization efficiencies of heavy metals in the contaminated soils. Here, the low-cost, easily obtained, and environment-friendly filamentous fungi have been introduced for the bio-matrices of the hybrid bio-nanocomposites to potentially solve such problem of n-HAPs. According to SEM, TEM, XRD, and FT-IR analyses, n-HAPs were successfully coated onto the fungal hyphae and their self-aggregation was improved. The immobilization efficiencies of diethylene-triamine-pentaacetic acid (DTPA)-extractable Cd and Pb in the contaminated soils by the bio-nanocomposites were individually one to four times of that by n-HAPs or the fungal hyphae. Moreover, the Aspergillus niger-based bio-nanocomposite (ANHP) was superior to the Penicillium Chrysogenum F1-based bio-nanocomposite (PCHP) in immobilization of Cd and Pb in the contaminated soils. In addition, the results of XRD showed that one of the potential mechanisms of metal immobilization by the hybrid bio-nanocomposites was dissolution of n-HAPs followed by precipitation of new metal phosphate minerals. Our results suggest that the hybrid bio-nanocomposite (ANHP) can be recognized as a promising soil amendment candidate for effective remediation on the soils simultaneously contaminated by Cd and Pb.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biodegradable thermosensitive hydrogel scaffolds based on novel three-block PCL-PEG-PCL and penta block PNIPAAm-PCL-PEG-PCL-PNIPAAm copolymers blended with gelatin were prepared and examined on functional behavior of chondrocytes. METHODS In this work, we compared two different thermosensitive hydrogel scaffolds (PNIPAAm-PCL-PEG-PCL-PNIPAAm)/Gelatin and (PCL-PEG-PCL)/Gelatin prepared by TIPS (thermally induced phase separation) method. The feature of copolymers was characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR. The lower critical solution temperatures (LCSTs) of aqueous solutions of copolymers were measured by cloud point (turbidity) measurements. We also examined water absorption capacity and swelling ratio. Mechanical features of the prepared hydrogels were evaluated by stress-strain measurements. Thereafter, isolated chondrocytes were cultured on each scaffold for a period of 10 days and cell arrangement and morphology studied pre-and post-plating. Cell survival assay was done by using MTT assay. The transcription level of genes Sox-9, Collagen-II, COMP, MMP-13 and oligomeric matrix protein was monitored by real-time PCR assay. The samples were also stained by Toluidine blue method to monitor the synthesis of proteoglycan. RESULTS Data demonstrated an increased survival rate in cells coated seeded on scaffolds, especially (PNIPAAm-PCL-PEG-PCL-PNIPAAm)/Gelatin as compared to control cells on the plastic surface. (PNIPAAm-PCL-PEG-PCL-PNIPAAm)/Gelatin had potential to increase the expression of genes Sox-6, Collagen-II, COMP and after 10 days in vitro. CONCLUSION Thermosensitive PCEC/Gel and (PNIPAAm-PCEC-PNIPAAm)/Gel hydrogel scaffolds that fabricated by TIPS method possesses useful hydrophilic properties for growth and cell embedding and secretion of extracellular matrix. It can serve as an ideal strategy to promote the formation of cartilage tissue.

Abstract
In bone tissue engineering, the fabrication of a scaffold with a hierarchical architecture, excellent mechanical properties, and good biocompatibility remains a challenge. Here, a solution of polylactic acid (PLA) and Tussah silk fibroin (TSF) was electrospun into nanofiber yarns and woven into multilayer fabrics. Then, composite scaffolds were obtained by mineralization in simulated body fluid (SBF) using the multilayer fabrics as a template. The structure and related properties of the composite scaffolds were characterized using different techniques. PLA/TSF (mass ratio, 9:1) nanofiber yarns with uniform diameters of 72±9μm were obtained by conjugated electrospinning; the presence of 10wt% TSF accelerated the nucleation and growth of hydroxyapatite on the surface of the composite scaffolds in SBF. Furthermore, the compressive mechanical properties of the PLA/TSF multilayer nanofiber fabrics were improved after mineralization; the compressive modulus and stress of the mineralized composite scaffolds were 32.8 and 3.0 times higher than that of the composite scaffolds without mineralization, respectively. Interestingly, these values were higher than those of scaffolds containing random nanofibers. Biological assay results showed that the mineralization and multilayer fabric structure of the composite nanofiber scaffolds significantly increased cell adhesion and proliferation and enhanced the mesenchymal stem cell differentiation toward osteoblasts. Our results indicated that the mineralized nanofiber scaffolds with multilayer fabrics possessed excellent cytocompatibility and good osteogenic activity, making them versatile biocompatible scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
A series of composites based on nanohydroxyapatite (nHAp) and natural polysaccharides (PS) (nHAp/agar, nHAp/chitosan, nHAp/pectin FB300, nHAp/pectin APA103, nHAp/sodium alginate) was synthesized by liquid-phase two-step method and characterized using nitrogen adsorption-desorption, DSC, TG, FTIR spectroscopy, and SEM. The analysis of nitrogen adsorption-desorption data shows that composites with a nHAp: PS ratio of 4:1 exhibit a sufficiently high specific surface area from 49 to 82 m2/g. The incremental pore size distributions indicate mainly mesoporosity. The composites with the component ratio 1:1 preferably form a film-like structure, and the value of S BET varies from 0.3 to 43 m2/g depending on the nature of a polysaccharide. Adsorption of Sr(II) on the composites from the aqueous solutions has been studied. The thermal properties of polysaccharides alone and in nHAp/PS show the influence of nHAp, since there is a shift of characteristic DSC and DTG peaks. FTIR spectroscopy data confirm the presence of functional groups typical for nHAp as well as polysaccharides in composites. Structure and morphological characteristics of the composites are strongly dependent on the ratio of components, since nHAp/PS at 4:1 have relatively large S BET values and a good ability to adsorb metal ions. The comparison of the adsorption capacity with respect to Sr(II) of nHAp, polysaccharides, and composites shows that it of the latter is higher than that of nHAp (per 1 m2 of surface).

Abstract
In general, the design of a scaffold should imitate certain advantageous properties of native extracellular matrix (ECM) to operate as a temporary ECM for cells. From this perspective, a biomimetic scaffold was prepared using poly(vinyl alcohol) and carrageenan in which axially oriented pore structure can be formed through a facile unidirectional freeze-thaw method. We examined the feasibility of this oriented scaffold, which has better physicochemical properties than a non-oriented scaffold fabricated by the conventional method. The microenvironment of this oriented scaffold could imitate biochemical and physical cues of natural cartilage ECM for guiding spatial organization and proliferation of cells in vitro, indicating its potential in cartilage repair strategy. Furthermore, the biocompatibility of the scaffold in vivo was demonstrated in a subcutaneous rat model, which revealed uniform infiltration and survival of newly formed tissue into the oriented scaffold after 4 weeks with only a minimal inflammatory response being observed over the course of the experiments. These results together indicated that the present biomimetic scaffold with oriented microarchitecture could be a promising candidate for cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
Chitin and chitosan based nanocomposite scaffolds have been widely used for bone tissue engineering. These chitin and chitosan based scaffolds were reinforced with nanocomponents viz Hydroxyapatite (HAp), Bioglass ceramic (BGC), Silicon dioxide (SiO2), Titanium dioxide (TiO2) and Zirconium oxide (ZrO2) to develop nanocomposite scaffolds. Plenty of works have been reported on the applications and characteristics of the nanoceramic composites however, compiling the work done in this field and presenting it in a single article is a thrust area. This review is written with an aim to fill this gap and focus on the preparations and applications of chitin or chitosan/nHAp, chitin or chitosan/nBGC, chitin or chitosan/nSiO2, chitin or chitosan/nTiO2 and chitin or chitosan/nZrO2 in the field of bone tissue engineering in detail. Many reports so far exemplify the importance of ceramics in bone regeneration. The effect of nanoceramics over native ceramics in developing composites, its role in osteogenesis etc. are the gist of this review.

Abstract
Several synthetic scaffolds are being developed using polymers, ceramics and their composites to overcome the limitations of auto- and allografts. Polymer-ceramic composites appear to be the most promising bone graft substitute since the natural bone itself is a composite of collagen and hydroxyapatite. Ceramics provide strength and osteoconductivity to the scaffold while polymers impart flexibility and resorbability. Natural polymers have an edge over synthetic polymers because of their biocompatibility and biological recognition property. But, very few natural polymer-ceramic composites are available as commercial products, and those few are predominantly based on type I collagen. Disadvantages of using collagen include allergic reactions and pathogen transmission. The commercial products also lack sufficient mechanical properties. This review summarizes the recent developments of biocomposite materials as bone scaffolds to overcome these drawbacks. Their characteristics, in vitro and in vivo performance are discussed with emphasis on their mechanical properties and ways to improve their performance.

Abstract
Nano- or microhydroxyapatites with microbiological properties are being used to detect pathogens in clinical samples and industrial environments. In this study, the calcium phosphates coral-hydroxyapatite and biphasic calcium phosphate were characterized physicochemically using x-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric, and differential thermal analysis. The morphology, texture, and chemical composition of the ceramics were also investigated using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The biocompatibility of the ceramics was evaluated using Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis. Microorganisms were detected by incorporating the enzyme markers 4-metilumbelliferil-β-d-glucoside and 4-metilumbelliferil-β-d-glucuronide in the ceramic powders and evaluating fluorescence. The characterization of the ceramics revealed typical characteristics, such as crystallinity, thermal stability, and chemical composition, consistent with other calcium phosphates. The calcium phosphates coral-hydroxyapatite and biphasic calcium phosphate ceramics differed from one another in morphology, structural topography, particle size distribution, and the capacity to absorb water. These properties can influence the rates of microbiological responses and bacterial detection. Although both materials are suitable for use as structural supports in microbial diagnostic systems, BCP was more efficient and detected E. coli and E. faecalis more rapidly than CHA.

Abstract
Polymer and ceramic composite scaffolds play a crucial role in bone tissue engineering. In an attempt to mimic the architecture of natural extracellular matrix (ECM), poly(l-lactic acid)/β-tricalcium phosphate (PLLA/β-TCP) nanocomposite scaffolds with a hierarchical pore structure were fabricated by combining thermal induced phase separation and salt leaching techniques. The nanocomposite scaffold consisted of a nanofibrous PLLA matrix with a highly interconnected, high porosity (>93%) hierarchical pore structure with pore diameters ranging from 500nm to 300μm and a homogeneously distributed β-TCP nanoparticle phase. The nanofibrous PLLA matrix had a fiber diameter of 70-300nm. The nanocomposite scaffolds possess three levels of hierarchical structure: (1) porosity; (2) nanofibrous PLLA struts comprising the pore walls; and (3) β-TCP nanoparticle phase. The β-TCP nanoparticle phase improved the mechanical properties and bioactivity of the PLLA matrix. The nanocomposite scaffolds supported MG-63 osteoblast proliferation, penetration, and ECM deposition, indicating the potential of PLLA/β-TCP nanocomposite scaffolds with hierarchical porosity for bone tissue engineering applications.
