Abstract
Osteoporosis is a metabolic disease characterized by bone density and trabecular bone loss. Bone loss may affect dental implant osseointegration in patients with osteoporosis. To promote implant osseointegration in osteoporotic patients, we further used a nonthermal atmospheric plasma (NTAP) treatment device previously developed by our research group. After the titanium implant (Ti) is placed into the device, the working gas flow and the electrode switches are turned on, and the treatment is completed in 30 s. Previous studies showed that this NTAP device can remove carbon contamination from the implant surface, increase the hydroxyl groups, and improve its wettability to promote osseointegration in normal conditions. In this study, we demonstrated the tremendous osteogenic enhancement effect of NTAP-Ti in osteoporotic conditions in rats for the first time. Compared to Ti, the proliferative potential of osteoporotic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on NTAP-Ti increased by 180% at 1 day (P = 0.004), while their osteogenic differentiation increased by 149% at 14 days (P < 0.001). In addition, the results indicated that NTAP-Ti significantly improved osseointegration in osteoporotic rats in vivo. Compared to the Ti, the bone volume fraction (BV/TV) and trabecular number (Tb.N) values of NTAP-Ti in osteoporotic rats, respectively, increased by 18% (P < 0.001) and 25% (P = 0.007) at 6 weeks and the trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) value decreased by 26% (P = 0.02) at 6 weeks. In conclusion, this study proved a novel NTAP irradiation titanium implant that can significantly promote osseointegration in osteoporotic conditions.

Abstract
Electrospinning is a versatile technique for fabricating polymeric fibers with diameters ranging from micro- to nanoscale, exhibiting multiple morphologies and arrangements. By combining silk fibroin (SF) with synthetic and/or natural polymers, electrospun materials with outstanding biological, chemical, electrical, physical, mechanical, and optical properties can be achieved, fulfilling the evolving biomedical demands. This review highlights the remarkable versatility of SF-derived electrospun materials, specifically focusing on their application in tissue regeneration (including cartilage, cornea, nerves, blood vessels, bones, and skin), disease treatment (such as cancer and diabetes), and the development of controlled drug delivery systems. Additionally, we explore the potential future trends in utilizing these nanofibrous materials for creating intelligent biomaterials, incorporating biosensors and wearable sensors for monitoring human health, and also discuss the bottlenecks for its widespread use. This comprehensive overview illuminates the significant impact and exciting prospects of SF-derived electrospun materials in advancing biomedical research and applications.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is a promising treatment for bone loss that requires a combination of porous scaffold and osteogenic cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate and develop a tricomposite, biomimetic scaffold consisting of marine-derived biomaterials, namely, chitosan and fucoidan with hydroxyapatite (HA). The effects of chitosan, fucoidan and HA individually and in combination on the proliferation and differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were investigated. According to the SEM results, the tricomposite scaffold had a uniform porous structure, which is a key requirement for cell migration, proliferation and vascularisation. The presence of HA and fucoidan in the chitosan tricomposite scaffold was confirmed using FTIR, which showed a slight decrease in porosity and an increase in the density of the tricomposite scaffold compared to other formulations. Fucoidan was found to inhibit cell proliferation at higher concentrations and at earlier time points when applied as a single treatment, but this effect was lost at later time points. Similar results were observed with HA alone. However, both HA and fucoidan increased MSC mineralisation as measured by calcium deposition. Differentiation was significantly enhanced in MSCs cultured on the tricomposite, with increased alkaline phosphatase activity on days 17 and 25. In conclusion, the tricomposite is biocompatible, promotes osteogenesis, and has the structural and compositional properties required of a scaffold for bone tissue engineering. This biomaterial could provide an effective treatment for small bone defects as an alternative to autografts or be the basis for cell attachment and differentiation in ex vivo bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Natural polymeric nanobiocomposites hold promise in repairing damaged bone tissue in tissue engineering. These materials create an extracellular matrix (ECM)-like microenvironment that induces stem cell differentiation. In this study, we investigated a new cytocompatible nanobiocomposite made from cotton cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) combined with chitosan polymer to induce osteogenic stem cell differentiation. First, we characterized the chemical composition, nanotopography, swelling properties, and mechanical properties of the cotton CNF/chitosan nanobiocomposite scaffold. Then, we examined the biological characteristics of the nanocomposites to evaluate their cytocompatibility and osteogenic differentiation potential using human mesenchymal stem cells derived from exfoliated deciduous teeth. The results showed that the nanobiocomposite exhibited favorable cytocompatibility and promoted osteogenic differentiation of cells without the need for chemical inducers, as demonstrated by the increase in alkaline phosphatase activity and ECM mineralization. Therefore, the cotton CNF/chitosan nanobiocomposite scaffold holds great promise for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is an autologous growth factor carrier that promotes bone tissue regeneration, but its effectiveness is restrained by poor storage capabilities, uncontrollable concentration of growth factors, unstable shape, etc. Herein, we developed a photocrosslinkable composite hydrogel by incorporating lyophilized PRF exudate (LPRFe) into the carboxymethyl chitosan methacryloyl (CMCSMA)/gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel to effectively solve the dilemma of PRF. The hydrogel possessed suitable physical properties and sustainable release ability of growth factors in LPRFe. The LPRFe-loaded hydrogel could improve the adhesion, proliferation, migration, and osteogenic differentiation of rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Furthermore, the animal experiments demonstrated that the hydrogel possessed excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, and the introduction of LPRFe in the hydrogel can effectively accelerate the bone healing process. Conclusively, the combination of LPRFe with CMCSMA/GelMA hydrogel may be a promising therapeutic approach for bone defects.

Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF) is an excellent protein-based biomaterial produced by the degumming and purification of silk from cocoons of the Bombyx mori through alkali or enzymatic treatments. SF exhibits excellent biological properties, such as mechanical properties, biocompatibility, biodegradability, bioabsorbability, low immunogenicity, and tunability, making it a versatile material widely applied in biological fields, particularly in tissue engineering. In tissue engineering, SF is often fabricated into hydrogel form, with the advantages of added materials. SF hydrogels have mostly been studied for their use in tissue regeneration by enhancing cell activity at the tissue defect site or counteracting tissue-damage-related factors. This review focuses on SF hydrogels, firstly summarizing the fabrication and properties of SF and SF hydrogels and then detailing the regenerative effects of SF hydrogels as scaffolds in cartilage, bone, skin, cornea, teeth, and eardrum in recent years.

Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF) and sericin (SS), the two major proteins of silk, are attractive biomaterials with great potential in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, their biochemical interactions with stem cells remain unclear. In this study, multiomics are employed to obtain a global view of the cellular processes and pathways of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) triggered by SF and SS to discern cell-biomaterial interactions at an in-depth, high-throughput molecular level. Integrated RNA sequencing and proteomic analysis confirm that SF and SS initiate widespread but distinct cellular responses and potentiate the paracrine functions of MSCs that regulate extracellular matrix deposition, angiogenesis, and immunomodulation through differentially activating the integrin/PI3K/Akt and glycolysis signaling pathways. These paracrine signals of MSCs stimulated by SF and SS effectively improve skin regeneration by regulating the behavior of multiple resident cells (fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and macrophages) in the skin wound microenvironment. Compared to SS, SF exhibits better immunomodulatory effects in vitro and in vivo, indicating its greater potential as a carrier material of MSCs for skin regeneration. This study provides comprehensive and reliable insights into the cellular interactions with SF and SS, enabling the future development of silk-based therapeutics for tissue engineering and stem cell therapy.

Abstract
Natural polymers have been used in the biomedical fields for decades, mainly derived from animals and plants with high similarities with biomacromolecules in the human body. As an alkaline polysaccharide, chitosan (CS) attracts much attention in tissue regeneration and drug delivery with favorable biocompatibility, biodegradation, and antibacterial activity. However, to overcome its mechanical properties and degradation behavior drawbacks, a robust fibrous protein-silk fibroin (SF) was introduced to prepare the CS/SF composites. Not only can CS be combined with SF via the amide and hydrogen bond formation, but also their functions are complementary and tunable with the blending ratio. To further improve the performances of CS/SF composites, natural (e.g., hyaluronic acid and collagen) and synthetic biopolymers (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol and hexanone) were incorporated. Also, the CS/SF composites acted as slow-release carriers for inorganic non-metals (e.g., hydroxyapatite and graphene) and metal particles (e.g., silver and magnesium), which could enhance cell functions, facilitate tissue healing, and inhibit bacterial growth. This review presents the state-of-the-art and future perspectives of different biomaterials combined with CS/SF composites as sponges, hydrogels, membranes, particles, and coatings. Emphasis is devoted to the biological potentialities of these hybrid systems, which look rather promising toward a multitude of applications.

Abstract
A highly porous nanofibrous network that can functionalize antibacterial and therapeutic agents can be considered a suitable option for skin wound healing. In this study, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP)/nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) nanocomposite was synthesized and then applied to the fabrication of novel chitosan (CS)/silk fibroin (SF)/N-CQDs/α-TCP wound dressing via electrospinning system. The prepared nanomaterials were well characterized using X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared, scanning and transmission electron microscopes analyses, and antibacterial assay. Furthermore, nanofibers were evaluated regarding their physical properties, such as tensile behavior, water uptake capacity, and water contact angle. The results reveal that CS/SF/N-CQDs/α-TCP showed lower MIC values against E. coli and S. aureus (1.45 ± 0.26 mg/mL and 1.59 ± 0.12 mg/mL) compared to other synthesized materials. Also, in-vitro investigations were performed, and the MTT assay on the HFF cell line revealed that CS/SF/N-CQDs/α-TCP nanofiber could possess good biocompatibility. Interestingly, the scratch test proved that faster cell migration and proliferation occurred in the presence of CS/SF/N-CQDs/α-TCP (73 ± 3.12 %). Finally, we examined the wound healing ability of CS/SF/N-CQDs/α-TCP nanofiber using an animal model. The results confirmed that produced nanofiber could efficiently promote wound closure by 96.73 ± 1.25 % in 12 days. Histopathological analyses verified accelerated re-epithelization and well-structured epidermis in CS/SF/N-CQDs/α-TCP nanofiber-treated group. Based on our findings, the CS/SF/N-CQDs/α-TCP nanofiber with excellent antimicrobial properties is highly suitable for wound healing and skin tissue regeneration applications.

Abstract
Magnetically actuated mechanical stimulation, as a novel form of intelligent responsive force stimulation, has a great potential for remote spatiotemporal regulation of a variety of life processes. Hence, the optimal design of magnetic nanomaterials for generating magneto-mechanical stimuli becomes an important driving force in the development of magneto-controlled biotherapy. This study aims to clarify the general rule that the surface modification amount of magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) affects the biological behavior (e.g., cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation) of pre-osteoblast cells. First of all, course-grained molecular dynamics simulations predict that 23.3% graft modification of the NPs can maximize the heterogeneity of the dynamics of the polymer matrix, which may generate enhanced mechanical stimuli. Then, experimentally, iron oxide (IO) NPs grafted with different amounts of poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG) were prepared to obtain homogeneous magnetic nanocomposites with improved mechanical properties. Further in vitro cell experiments demonstrate that the grafting amounts of 21.46% and 32.34% of PBLG on IO NPs are the most beneficial for the adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of cells. Simultaneously, the maximized upregulation of the Piezo1 gene indicates that the cells receive the strongest magneto-mechanical stimuli. The consistent conclusion of the experiments and simulations indicates that 20-30% PBLG grafted on the IO surface could maximize the ability of magnetic stimuli to regulate the biological behavior of the cells, which validates the feasibility of simulation auxiliary material design and is of great importance for promoting the application of magneto-controlled biotherapy in bioengineering and biomedicine.

Abstract
It is increasingly becoming important to develop three-dimensional (3-D) cell culture systems due to their numerous advantages over traditional monolayer culture. The aim of this study is to investigate the interaction of adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) with scaffolds composed of ε-polycaprolactone (ε-PCL) and egg white. In our study; ε-PCL and egg white scaffolds were fabricated from their monomers under the catalysis of tin octoate and by polymerization by heat respectively. Characterization of PCL was carried out with Gel permeability chromatography (GPC), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometry (FTIR), Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (H-NMR), Differential Scan Calorimetry (DSC) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). CM-DiI labeled ADSCs were cultured for 12 days on egg white and ε-PCL scaffolds. Cell viability was performed using MTT and nitric oxide level was evaluated for toxicity. Results showed that the number of ADSCs on egg white scaffold increased periodically throughout 12 days compared with the other groups. Although the number of ADSCs on ε-PCL scaffold increased until the 6th day of the culture, the cell number began to decrease after day 6.. These results were associated with the decomposition of PCL scaffolds that occurs through catabolic reactions. This causes the release of lactic acid which makes toxic effect on the cells. Thus, these results showed that egg white scaffold increases and protects cell adhesion and cell viability more than ε-Polycaprolactone scaffold, thus it can be used as a scaffold in tissue engineering studies that involve stem cells.

Polycaprolactone/Chitosan Composite Nanofiber Membrane as a Preferred Scaffold for the Culture of Mesothelial Cells and the Repair of Damaged Mesothelium. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23179517.

Abstract
Mesothelial cells are specific epithelial cells lining the serosal cavity and internal organs. Nonetheless, few studies have explored the possibility to culture mesothelial cells in a nanostructure scaffold for tissue engineering applications. Therefore, this study aims to fabricate nanofibers from a polycaprolactone (PCL) and PCL/chitosan (CS) blend by electrospinning, and to elucidate the effect of CS on the cellular response of mesothelial cells. The results demonstrate that a PCL and PCL/CS nanofiber membrane scaffold could be prepared with a comparable fiber diameter (~300 nm) and porosity for cell culture. Blending CS with PCL influenced the mechanical properties of the scaffold due to interference of PCL crystallinity in the nanofibers. However, CS substantially improves scaffold hydrophilicity and results in a ~6-times-higher cell attachment rate in PCL/CS. The mesothelial cells maintain high viability in both nanofiber membranes, but PCL/CS provides better maintenance of cobblestone-like mesothelial morphology. From gene expression analysis and immunofluorescence staining, the incorporation of CS also results in the upregulated expression of mesothelial marker genes and the enhanced production of key mesothelial maker proteins, endorsing PCL/CS to better maintain the mesothelial phenotype. The PCL/CS scaffold was therefore chosen for the in vivo studies, which involved transplanting a cell/scaffold construct containing allograft mesothelial cells for mesothelium reconstruction in rats. In the absence of mesothelial cells, the mesothelium wound covered with PCL/CS showed an inflammatory response. In contrast, a mesothelium layer similar to native mesothelium tissue could be obtained by implanting the cell/scaffold construct, based on hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and immunohistochemical staining.

Abstract
Facilitated endogenous tissue engineering, as a facile and effective strategy, is emerging for use in bone tissue regeneration. However, the development of bioactive scaffolds with excellent osteo-inductivity to recruit endogenous stem cells homing and differentiation towards lesion areas remains an urgent problem. Chitosan (CS), with versatile qualities including good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and tunable physicochemical and biological properties is undergoing vigorously development in the field of bone repair. Based on this, the review focus on recent advances in chitosan-based scaffolds for facilitated endogenous bone regeneration. Initially, we introduced and compared the facilitated endogenous tissue engineering with traditional tissue engineering. Subsequently, the various CS-based bone repair scaffolds and their fabrication methods were briefly explored. Furthermore, the functional design of CS-based scaffolds in bone endogenous regeneration including biomolecular loading, inorganic nanomaterials hybridization, and physical stimulation was highlighted and discussed. Finally, the major challenges and further research directions of CS-based scaffolds were also elaborated. We hope that this review will provide valuable reference for further bone repair research in the future.

Abstract
The use of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells along with three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds in pancreatic tissue engineering can be considered as a treatment for diabetes. This study aimed to investigate the differentiation of Wharton's jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) into pancreatic islet-insulin producing cells (IPCs) on silk/gelatin nanofibers as a 3D scaffold. Mesenchymal markers were evaluated at the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) level by flow cytometry. WJ-MSCs were then cultured on 3D scaffolds and treated with a differential medium. Immunocytochemical assays showed efficient differentiation of WJ-MSCs into IPCs. Also, Real-time PCR results showed a significant increase in the expression of pancreatic genes in the 3D culture group compared to the two-dimensional (2D) culture group. Despite these cases, the secretion of insulin and C-peptide in response to different concentrations of glucose in the 3D group was significantly higher than in the 2D culture. The results of our study showed that silk/gelatin scaffold with WJ-MSCs could be a good option in the production of IPCs in regenerative medicine and pancreatic tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone-tissue engineering is an alternative treatment for bone defects with great potential in which scaffold is a critical factor to determine the effect of bone regeneration. Electrospun nanofibers are widely used as scaffolds in the biomedical field for their similarity with the structure of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Their unique characteristics are: larger surface areas, porosity and processability; these make them ideal candidates for bone-tissue engineering. This review briefly introduces bone-tissue engineering and summarizes the materials and methods for electrospining. More importantly, how to functionalize electrospun nanofibers to make them more conducive for bone regeneration is highlighted. Finally, the existing deficiencies of functionalized electrospun nanofibers for promoting osteogenesis are proposed. Such a summary can lay the foundation for the clinical practice of functionalized electrospun nanofibers.

Abstract
Simple Summary Bone tissue engineering has recently been considered as a potential alternative approach to treating patients with bone disorders/defects caused by tumors, trauma, and infection. Scaffolds play a crucial role in the field because they can serve as a template that can provide optimal structural and functional support for cells. In this study, we prepared a series of electrospun silk fibroin/kappa-carrageenan nanofibrous membranes with the aim of mimicking bone extracellular matrix structure and composition and improving the biological properties of silk-fibroin-based nanofibers. Our research found that a combinational approach blending kappa-carrageenan and silk fibroin could enhance the biological properties of the nanostructured scaffold. kappa-carrageenan could also enhance the osteogenic potential and bioactivity properties of silk fibroin nanofibers, while genipin crosslinking preserved the mechanical strength of hybrid nanofibrous mats, indicating that the electrospun hybrid scaffolds could be a potential candidate for bone regeneration applications. Abstract In this study, a novel nanofibrous hybrid scaffold based on silk fibroin (SF) and different weight ratios of kappa-carrageenan (k-CG) (1, 3, and 5 mg of k-CG in 1 mL of 12 wt% SF solution) was prepared using electrospinning and genipin (GP) as a crosslinker. The presence of k-CG in SF nanofibers was analyzed and confirmed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). In addition, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that GP could cause SF conformation to shift from random coils or α-helices to β-sheets and thereby facilitate a more crystalline and stable structure. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and Young’s modulus of the SF mats were enhanced after crosslinking with GP from 3.91 ± 0.2 MPa to 8.50 ± 0.3 MPa and from 9.17 ± 0.3 MPa to 31.2 ± 1.2 MP, respectively. Notably, while the mean fiber diameter, wettability, and biodegradation rate of the SF nanofibers increased with increasing k-CG content, a decreasing effect was determined in terms of UTS and Young’s modulus. Additionally, better cell viability and proliferation were observed on hybrid scaffolds with the highest k-CG content. Osteogenic differentiation was determined from alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and Alizarin Red staining and expression of osteogenic marker genes. To this end, we noticed that k-CG enhanced ALP activity, calcium deposition, and expression of osteogenic genes on the hybrid scaffolds. Overall, hybridization of SF and k-CG can introduce a promising scaffold for bone regeneration; however, more biological evaluations are required.

Abstract
To imitate the composition of natural bone and further improve the biological property of the materials, ZnO/hydroxyapatite/chitosan-polyethylene oxide@gelatin (ZnO/HAP/CS-PEO@GEL) composite scaffolds were developed. The core-shell structured chitosan-polyethylene oxide@gelatin (CS-PEO@GEL) nanofibers which could form the intramolecular hydrogen bond and achieve an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) polymer were first prepared by coaxial electrospinning to mimic the extracellular matrix. To further enhance biological activity, hydroxyapatite (HAP) was grown on the surface of the CS-PEO@GEL nanofibers using chemical deposition and ZnO particles were then evenly distributed on the surface of the above composite materials using RF magnetron sputtering. The SEM results showed that chemical deposition and magnetron sputtering did not destroy the three-dimensional architecture of materials, which was beneficial to cell growth. The cell compatibility and proliferation of MG-63 cells on ZnO/HAP/CS-PEO@GEL composite scaffolds were superior to those on CS-PEO@GEL and HAP/CS-PEO@GEL composite scaffolds. An appropriate amount of ZnO sputtering could promote the adhesion of cells on the composite nanofibers. The structure of bone tissue could be better simulated both in composition and in the microenvironment, which provided a suitable environment for cell growth and promoted the proliferation of MG-63 cells. The biomimetic ZnO/HAP/CS-PEO@GEL composite scaffolds were promising materials for bone tissue engineering.

Curcumin suppresses cell proliferation and triggers apoptosis in vemurafenib-resistant melanoma cells by downregulating the EGFR signaling pathway. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY 2022; 37:868-879. [PMID: 34994998 DOI: 10.1002/tox.23450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Revised: 11/24/2021] [Accepted: 12/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Melanoma is a malignant tumor with aggressive behavior. Vemurafenib, a BRAF inhibitor, is clinically used in melanoma, but resistance to melanoma cytotoxic therapies is associated with BRAF mutations. Curcumin can effectively inhibit numerous types of cancers. However, there are no reports regarding the correlation between curcumin and vemurafenib-resistant melanoma cells. In this study, vemurafenib-resistant A375.S2 (A375.S2/VR) cells were established, and the functional mechanism of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), serine-threonine kinase (AKT), and the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling induced by curcumin was investigated in A375.S2/VR cells in vitro. Our results indicated that A375.S2/VR cells had a higher IC50 concentration of vemurafenib than the parental A375.S2 cells. Moreover, curcumin reduced the viability and confluence of A375.S2/VR cells. Curcumin triggered apoptosis via reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, disruption of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm), and intrinsic signaling (caspase-9/-3-dependent) pathways in A375.S2/VR cells. Curcumin-induced apoptosis was also mediated by the EGFR signaling pathway. Combination treatment with curcumin and gefitinib (an EGFR inhibitor) synergistically potentiated the inhibitory effect of cell viability in A375.S2/VR cells. The present study provides new insights into the therapy of vemurafenib-resistant melanoma and suggests that curcumin might be an encouraging therapeutic candidate for its drug-resistant treatment.

Fabrication of thermoplastic polyurethane with functionalized MXene towards high mechanical strength, flame-retardant, and smoke suppression properties. J Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 606:223-235.

Abstract
Recently, two-dimensional MXene demonstrated promising advantages to improve the flame-retardant performance of composites; however, its compatibility with polymer matrix is a great concern. In this study, MXene was first functionalized with phosphorylated chitosan (PCS) to obtain the PCS-MXene nanohybrid. The resulting nanohybrid was introduced into the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) matrix via solution mixing followed by the hot-pressing method, affording TPU/PCS-MXene nanocomposite. The resulting nanohybrid exhibited superior compatibility with the TPU matrix, enhancing mechanical performance of the TPU/PCS-MXene nanocomposite compared to the pristine TPU and TPU/MXene nanocomposite. Besides, the flame-retardant performance of TPU/PCS-MXene nanocomposite was greatly enhanced, while the smoke emission was effectively suppressed. As only 3 wt% PCS-MXene was introduced, peak heat release rate, total heat release, and total smoke production of the composite decreased by 66.7%, 21.0%, and 27.7%, respectively, compared to the pristine TPU. Systematical characterization was then carried out to investigate the enhancement mechanism of PCS-MXene, highlighting the crucial role of PCS combined with the catalytic effect of MXene. In brief, the compatibility issues of MXene were effectively addressed, and its flame-retardancy enhanced greatly via the PCS modification, the bio-based characteristic of which, in turn greatly benefits the further development of MXene-polymer composite.

Abstract
Currently, the significantly developing fields of tissue engineering related to the fabrication of polymer-based materials that possess microenvironments suitable to provide cell attachment and promote cell differentiation and proliferation involve various materials and approaches. Biomimicking approach in tissue engineering is aimed at the development of a highly biocompatible and bioactive material that would most accurately imitate the structural features of the native extracellular matrix consisting of specially arranged fibrous constructions. For this reason, the present research is devoted to the discussion of promising fibrous materials for bone tissue regeneration obtained by electrospinning techniques. In this brief review, we focus on the recently presented natural and synthetic polymers, as well as their combinations with each other and with bioactive inorganic incorporations in order to form composite electrospun scaffolds.

Abstract
Bone is a dynamic self-healing organ and a continuous remodeling ensures the restoration of the bone structure and function over time. However, bone remodeling is not able to repair large traumatic injuries. Therefore, surgical interventions and bone substitutes are required. The aim of bone tissue engineering is to repair and regenerate tissues and engineered a bone graft as a bone substitute. To met this goal, several natural or synthetic polymers have been used to develop a biocompatible and biodegradable polymeric construct. Among the polymers, natural polymers have higher biocompatibility, excellent biodegradability, and no toxicity. So far, collagen, chitosan, gelatin, silk fibroin, alginate, cellulose, and starch, alone or in combination, have been widely used in bone tissue engineering. These polymers have been used as scaffolds, hydrogels, and micro-nanospheres. The functionalization of the polymer with growth factors and bioactive glasses increases the potential use of polymers for bone regeneration. As bone is a dynamic highly vascularized tissue, the vascularization of the polymeric scaffolds is vital for successful bone regeneration. Several in vivo and in vitro strategies have been used to vascularize the polymeric scaffolds. In this review, the application of the most commonly used natural polymers is discussed.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal engineering has been considered as a promising approach to customize regenerated tissue (such as bone, cartilage, tendon, and ligament) via a self-healing performance. Recent advances have demonstrated the great potential of bioactive materials for regenerative medicine. Silk fibroin (SF), a natural polymer, is regarded as a remarkable bioactive material for musculoskeletal engineering thanks to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and tunability. To improve tissue-engineering performance, silk fibroin is hybridized with other biomaterials to form silk-fibroin-based hybrid biomaterials, which achieve superior mechanical and biological performance. Herein, we summarize the recent development of silk-based hybrid biomaterials in musculoskeletal tissue with reasonable generalization and classification, mainly including silk fibroin-based inorganic and organic hybrid biomaterials. The applied inorganics are composed of calcium phosphate, graphene oxide, titanium dioxide, silica, and bioactive glass, while the polymers include polycaprolactone, collagen (or gelatin), chitosan, cellulose, and alginate. This article mainly focuses on the physical and biological performances both in vitro and in vivo study of several common silk-based hybrid biomaterials in musculoskeletal engineering. The timely summary and highlight of silk-fibroin-based hybrid biomaterials will provide a research perspective to promote the further improvement and development of silk fibroin hybrid biomaterials for improved musculoskeletal engineering.

Abstract
Various materials are utilized as artificial substitutes for bone repair. In this study, a silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel reinforced by short silica nanoparticles (SiNPs)-distributed-silk fibroin nanofibers (SiNPs@NFs), which exhibits a superior osteoinductive property, is fabricated for treating bone defects. SF acts as the base part of the composite scaffold to mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM), which is the organic component of a native bone. The distribution of SiNPs clusters within the composite hydrogel partially mimics the distribution of mineral crystals within the ECM. Incorporation of SiNPs@NFs enhances the mechanical properties of the composite hydrogel. In addition, the composite hydrogel provides a biocompatible microenvironment for cell adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation in vitro. In vivo studies confirm that the successful repair is achieved with the formation of a large amount of new bone in the large-sized cranial defects that are treated with the composite hydrogel. In conclusion, the SiNPs@NFs-reinforced-hydrogel fabricated in this study has the potential for use in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
This review supplies a report on fresh advances in the field of silk fibroin (SF) biopolymer and its blends with biopolymers as new biomaterials. The review also includes a subsection about silk fibroin mixtures with synthetic polymers. Silk fibroin is commonly used to receive biomaterials. However, the materials based on pure polymer present low mechanical parameters, and high enzymatic degradation rate. These properties can be problematic for tissue engineering applications. An increased interest in two- and three-component mixtures and chemically cross-linked materials has been observed due to their improved physico-chemical properties. These materials can be attractive and desirable for both academic, and, industrial attention because they expose improvements in properties required in the biomedical field. The structure, forms, methods of preparation, and some physico-chemical properties of silk fibroin are discussed in this review. Detailed examples are also given from scientific reports and practical experiments. The most common biopolymers: collagen (Coll), chitosan (CTS), alginate (AL), and hyaluronic acid (HA) are discussed as components of silk fibroin-based mixtures. Examples of binary and ternary mixtures, composites with the addition of magnetic particles, hydroxyapatite or titanium dioxide are also included and given. Additionally, the advantages and disadvantages of chemical, physical, and enzymatic cross-linking were demonstrated.

Abstract
A critical review on the synthesis, characterization, and modeling of polymer grafting is presented. Although the motivation stemmed from grafting synthetic polymers onto lignocellulosic biopolymers, a comprehensive overview is also provided on the chemical grafting, characterization, and processing of grafted materials of different types, including synthetic backbones. Although polymer grafting has been studied for many decades—and so has the modeling of polymer branching and crosslinking for that matter, thereby reaching a good level of understanding in order to describe existing branching/crosslinking systems—polymer grafting has remained behind in modeling efforts. Areas of opportunity for further study are suggested within this review.

Abstract
Chitosan is considered as a green additive with broad application prospects due to its advantages like biodegradability and antibacterial ability. Herein, we proposed an effective chitosan grafting approach via "one-enzyme double catalysis" strategy which aimed at functionalizing wool fibers to achieve bidirectionally multiple covalent crosslinking between chitosan and wool by laccase/2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) mediated oxidization. The mechanism was studied using models of wool and chitosan in terms of UV, FTIR, GPC and MALDI-TOF MS. Meanwhile, the structure and morphology of wool fiber grafted with chitosan were characterized by ATR-FTIR and SEM. Compared with untreated wool, this efficient method can significantly improve the dimensional stability to felting (2.53 %), wettability and dyeability of wool fabric, and can also compensate for the strength loss caused by the pretreatment. The present work provides a useful path for the enzymatic modification of keratin-containing fibers like wool using chitosan and other natural biopolymers with similar structure.

NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2020; 11:E21. [PMID: 33374248 PMCID: PMC7823539 DOI: 10.3390/nano11010021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 78] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Revised: 12/18/2020] [Accepted: 12/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Many types of polymer nanofibers have been introduced as artificial extracellular matrices. Their controllable properties, such as wettability, surface charge, transparency, elasticity, porosity and surface to volume proportion, have attracted much attention. Moreover, functionalizing polymers with other bioactive components could enable the engineering of microenvironments to host cells for regenerative medical applications. In the current brief review, we focus on the most recently cited electrospun nanofibrous polymeric scaffolds and divide them into five main categories: natural polymer-natural polymer composite, natural polymer-synthetic polymer composite, synthetic polymer-synthetic polymer composite, crosslinked polymers and reinforced polymers with inorganic materials. Then, we focus on their physiochemical, biological and mechanical features and discussed the capability and efficiency of the nanofibrous scaffolds to function as the extracellular matrix to support cellular function.

Abstract
Structural and compositional similarity to the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) is a main characteristic of an ideal scaffold for tissue regeneration. In order to resemble the fibrous/gel structure of skin ECM, a multicomponent scaffold was fabricated using biopolymers with structural similarity to ECM and wound healing properties i.e., chitosan (CS), gelatin (Gel) and hyaluronic acid (HA). The CS-Gel and CS-HA nanofibers were simultaneously electrospun on the collector through dual-electrospinning technique. The presence of polymers, possible interactions, and formation of polyelectrolyte complex were proven by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The noncomplex component of CS-HA fibers formed a gel state when the scaffold was exposed to the aqueous media, while the CS-Gel fibers reserved their fibrous structure, resulting in formation of fibrous/gel structure. The CS-Gel/CS-HA scaffold showed significantly higher cell proliferation (109%) in the first 24 h comparing with CS (90%) and CS-Gel (96%) scaffolds. Additionally, the initial cell adhesion improved by incorporation of HA. The in-vivo wound healing results in rat elucidated more wound healing capability of the CS-Gel/CS-HA scaffold in which new tissue with most similarity to the normal skin was formed.

Abstract
Efficient delivery of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) with desirable bioactivity is still a great challenge in the field of bone regeneration. In this study, a silk fibroin/chitosan scaffold incorporated with BMP-2-loaded mesoporous hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (mHANPs) was prepared (SCH-L). BMP-2 was preloaded onto mHANPs with a high surface area before mixing with a silk fibroin/chitosan composite. Bare (without BMP-2) silk fibroin/chitosan/mHANP (SCH) scaffolds and SCH scaffolds with directly absorbed BMP-2 (SCH-D) were investigated in parallel for comparison. In vitro release kinetics indicated that BMP-2 released from the SCH-L scaffold showed a significantly lower initial burst release, followed by a more sustained release over time than the SCH-D scaffold. In vitro cell viability, osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), and the in vivo osteogenic effect of scaffolds in a rat calvarial defect were evaluated. The results showed that compared with bare SCH and SCH-D scaffolds, the SCH-L scaffold significantly promoted the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs in vitro and induced more pronounced bone formation in vivo. Further studies demonstrated that the mHANP-mediated satisfactory conformational change and sustained release benefited the protection of the released BMP-2 bioactivity, as confirmed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and a mineralization deposition assay. More importantly, the interaction of BMP-2/mHANPs enhanced the binding ability of BMP-2 to cellular receptors, thereby maintaining its biological activity in osteogenic differentiation and osteoinductivity well, which contributed to the markedly promoted in vitro and in vivo osteogenic efficacy of the SCH-L scaffold. Taken together, these results provide strong evidence that mHANPs represent an attractive carrier for binding BMP-2 to scaffolds. The SCH-L scaffold shows promising potential for bone tissue regeneration applications.

Abstract
Microcarrier cell scaffolds have potential as injectable cell delivery vehicles or as building blocks for tissue engineering. The use of small cell carriers allows for a 'bottom up' approach to tissue assembly when moulding microparticles into larger structures, which can facilitate the introduction of hierarchy by layering different matrices and cell types, while evenly distributing cells through the structure. In this work, silk fibroin (SF), purified from Bombyx mori cocoons, was blended with gelatin (G) to produce materials composed of varying ratios of the two components (SF: G 25:75, 50:50, and 75:25). Cell compatibility to these materials was first confirmed in two-dimensional culture and found to be equivalent to standard tissue culture plastic, and better than SF or G alone. The mechanical properties of the blends were investigated and the blended materials were found to have increased Young's moduli over SF alone. Microcarriers of SF/G blends with defined diameters were generated in a reproducible manner through the use of an axisymmetric flow focussing device, constructed from off-the-shelf parts and fittings. These SF/G microcarriers supported adhesion of rat mesenchymal stem cells with high degrees of efficiency under dynamic culture conditions and, after culturing in osteogenic differentiation medium, cells were shown to have characteristics typical of osteoblasts. This work illustrates that microcarriers composed of SF/G blends are promising building blocks for osteogenic tissue engineering.

Abstract
Electrically conducting polymers have been emerging as intelligent bioactive materials for regulating cell behaviors and bone tissue regeneration. Additionally, poor adhesion between conventional implants and native bone tissue may lead to displacement, local inflammation, and unnecessary secondary surgery. Thus, a conductive bioadhesive with strong adhesion performance provides an effective approach to fulfill fixation and regeneration of comminuted bone fracture. Inspired by mussel chemistry, we designed the conductive copolymers poly{[aniline tetramer methacrylamide]-co-[dopamine methacrylamide]-co-[poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate]} [poly(ATMA-co-DOPAMA-co-PEGMA); AT:conductive aniline tetramer; DOPA:dopamine; PEG:poly(ethylene glycol))] with AT content 3.0, 6.0, and 9.0 mol %, respectively. The adhesive strength of this copolymer was enhanced during tensile process perhaps due to the synergistic effects of H-bonding, π-π interactions, and polymer long-chain entanglement, reaching up to 1.28 MPa with 6 mol % AT. Biological characterizations of preosteoblasts indicated that the bioadhesives exhibited desirable biocompatibility. In addition, the osteogenic differentiation was synergistically enhanced by the conductive substrate and electrical stimulation with a square wave, frequency of 100 Hz, 50% duty cycle, and electrical potential of 500 mV, as indicated by ALP activity, calcium deposition, and expression of osteogenic genes. The ALP activity at 14 days and calcium deposition at 28 days on the 9 mol % AT group were significantly higher than that on PLGA under electrical stimulation. The expression value of OPN for 9 mol % AT group was notably upregulated by 5.9-fold compared with PLGA at 7 days under electrical stimulation. Overall, the conductive polymers with strong adhesion can synergistically upregulate the cellular activity combining with electrical stimulation and might be a promising bioadhesive for orthopedic and dental applications.

Abstract
Promoting bone regeneration and repairing defects are urgent and critical challenges in orthopedic clinical practice. Research on bone substitute biomaterials is essential for improving the treatment strategies for bone regeneration. Chitin and its derivative, chitosan, are among the most abundant natural biomaterials and widely found in the shells of crustaceans. Chitin and chitosan are non-toxic, antibacterial, biocompatible, degradable, and have attracted significant attention in bone substitute biomaterials. Chitin/chitosan nanofibers and nanostructured scaffolds have large surface area to volume ratios and high porosities. These scaffolds can be fabricated by electrospinning, thermally induced phase separation and self-assembly, and are widely used in biomedical applications such as biological scaffolds, drug delivery, bacterial inhibition, and wound dressing. Recently, some chitin/chitosan-based nanofibrous scaffolds have been found structurally similar to bone's extracellular matrix and can assist in bone regeneration. This review outlines the biomedical applications and biological properties of chitin/chitosan-based nanofibrous scaffolds in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The surface modification of polymeric materials has become critical for improving the bone repair capability of materials. In this study, we used a poly-L-lysine (PLL) coating method to prepare functional poly (lactic acid-glycolic acid) (PLGA) cell microcarriers, and bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) and ponericin G1 were immobilized on the surface of microcarriers. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact angle measurement, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) was used to analyse the surface morphology of PLL-modified PLGA microcarriers (PLL@PLGA) and their ability to promote mineralization. At the same time, the growth factor binding efficiency and antimicrobial activity of the microcarriers were studied. The effects of microcarriers on cell behaviors were evaluated by cultivating MC3T3-E1 cells on different microcarriers. The results showed that the hydrophilicity, protein adsorption, and mineralization induction capability of the microcarriers were significantly improved by PLL surface modification. The biological experiments revealed that BMP-7 and ponericin G1 immobilized-PLL modified microcarriers can effectively inhibit the proliferation of pathogenic microorganisms while enhancing the ability of the microcarriers to promote cell proliferation and osteogenesis differentiation. Therefore, we believe that PLL-modified PLGA cell microcarriers loaded with BMP-7 and ponericin G1 (PLL@PLGA/BMP-7/ponericin G1) have great potential in the field of bone repair.

Abstract
There has been substantial progress made in the development of bone regeneration materials, driven by the deficiencies that exist in current clinical products, such as finite sources, donor site complications, and potential for disease transmission. To overcome these shortcomings, multifunctional scaffolds should be developed to integrate the relationship among osteoinduction, osteoconduction, and osseointegration. In this study, we fabricated polycaprolactone/gelatin (PG) nanofiber films by electrospinning, to act as barriers against connective tissue migration into bone defect sites; chitosan/poly (γ-glutamic acid)/hydroxyapatite (CPH) hydrogels were formed by electrostatic interaction and lyophilization, to exert osteoconduction; and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) was extracted from rat abdominal aorta and combined with composite scaffolds, to promote bone induction through the release of growth factors. Hydrogels were immersed in simulated body fluid (SBF) for 1 month to investigate mineralization in vitro. Cytocompatibility, cell barrier effect, and osteogenic differentiation were also explored in vitro. The ability to effectively regenerate bone was analyzed by implantation of triple-layered composite scaffolds into rat calvarial defects in vivo. Size-matched hydrogel filled the defect site, and then, fresh PRF was applied to the hydrogel surface. Finally, P2G3 nanofiber films were applied and attached to the surrounding soft tissue. In short, we fabricated multifunctional triple-layered scaffolds by combining the advantages of osteoinduction, osteoconduction, and osseointegration, which could give full play to the role of PRF in bone regeneration and provide new and pragmatic concepts for bone tissue regeneration in clinical applications.
