Li Z, Li Y, Liu C, Gu Y, Han G. Research progress of the mechanisms and applications of ginsenosides in promoting bone formation. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 129:155604. [PMID: 38614042 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2024.155604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone deficiency-related diseases caused by various factors have disrupted the normal function of the skeleton and imposed a heavy burden globally, urgently requiring potential new treatments. The multi-faceted role of compounds like ginsenosides and their interaction with the bone microenvironment, particularly osteoblasts can promote bone formation and exhibit anti-inflammatory, vascular remodeling, and antibacterial properties, holding potential value in the treatment of bone deficiency-related diseases and bone tissue engineering. PURPOSE This review summarizes the interaction between ginsenosides and osteoblasts and the bone microenvironment in bone formation, including vascular remodeling and immune regulation, as well as their therapeutic potential and toxicity in the broad treatment applications of bone deficiency-related diseases and bone tissue engineering, to provide novel insights and treatment strategies. METHODS The literature focusing on the mechanisms and applications of ginsenosides in promoting bone formation before March 2024 was searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Science Direct databases. Keywords such as "phytochemicals", "ginsenosides", "biomaterials", "bone", "diseases", "bone formation", "microenvironment", "bone tissue engineering", "rheumatoid arthritis", "periodontitis", "osteoarthritis", "osteoporosis", "fracture", "toxicology", "pharmacology", and combinations of these keywords were used. RESULTS Ginsenoside monomers regulate signaling pathways such as WNT/β-catenin, FGF, and BMP/TGF-β, stimulating osteoblast generation and differentiation. It exerts angiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects by regulating the bone surrounding microenvironment through signaling such as WNT/β-catenin, NF-κB, MAPK, PI3K/Akt, and Notch. It shows therapeutic effects and biological safety in the treatment of bone deficiency-related diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, periodontitis, osteoporosis, and fractures, and bone tissue engineering by promoting osteogenesis and improving the microenvironment of bone formation. CONCLUSION The functions of ginsenosides are diverse and promising in treating bone deficiency-related diseases and bone tissue engineering. Moreover, potential exists in regulating the bone microenvironment, modifying biomaterials, and treating inflammatory-related bone diseases and dental material applications. However, the mechanisms and effects of some ginsenoside monomers are still unclear, and the lack of clinical research limits their clinical application. Further exploration and evaluation of the potential of ginsenosides in these areas are expected to provide more effective methods for treating bone defects.

[PMID: 38667676 PMCID: PMC11049517 DOI: 10.3390/gels10040257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Engineered bone scaffolds should mimic the natural material to promote cell adhesion and regeneration. For this reason, natural biopolymers are becoming a gold standard in scaffold production. In this study, we proposed a hybrid scaffold produced using gellan gum, hydroxyapatite, and Poly (ethylene glycol) within the addition of the ginseng compound K (CK) as a candidate for bone regeneration. The fabricated scaffold was physiochemically characterized. The morphology studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and image analysis revealed a pore distribution suitable for cells growth. The addition of CK further improved the biological activity of the hybrid scaffold as demonstrated by the MTT assay. The addition of CK influenced the scaffold morphology, decreasing the mean pore diameter. These findings can potentially help the development of a new generation of hybrid scaffolds to best mimic the natural tissue.

Abstract
The utilization of 3D printing technology for the fabrication of graft substitutes in bone repair holds immense promise. However, meeting the requirements for printability, bioactivity, mechanical strength, and biological properties of 3D printed structures concurrently poses a significant challenge. In this study, we introduce a novel approach by incorporating amorphous magnesium phosphate-graphene oxide (AMP-GO) into a thermo-crosslinkable chitosan/β glycerol phosphate (CS/GP) ink. We fabricated thermo-crosslinkable CS inks containing varying concentrations (10 %, 20 %, or 30 % weight) of AMP-GO. The 3D printed scaffolds incorporating 20 % AMP-GO exhibited significantly improved mechanical properties, with compressive strengths of 4.5 ± 0.06 MPa compared to 0.5 ± 0.03 MPa for CS printed scaffolds. Moreover, the CS/AMP-GO inks demonstrated enhanced antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) bacteria, attributed to the release of magnesium cations and the performance of GO. Additionally, CS/20AMP-GO ink facilitated increased adhesion, viability, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), as evidenced by the upregulation of ALP, COL1, and Runx2 expression, which were elevated 9.8, 6.5, and >22 times, respectively, compared to pure CS scaffolds. Considering its exceptional in vivo osteogenic potential, we anticipate that the CS/20AMP-GO ink holds great potential for 3D printing of bone grafts.

Abstract
The processing of fishery resources results in the production of a growing quantity of byproducts, including heads, skins, viscera, intestines, frames, and fillet cutoffs. These byproducts are either wasted or utilized for the production of low-value items and fish oil. Typically, fish processing industries use only 25%, while the remaining 75% is considered as waste by-products. This review presents a comprehensive review on the extraction of collagen from fish byproducts, highlighting numerous techniques including acid-soluble collagen (ASC), enzyme-soluble collagen (ESC), ultrasound extraction, deep eutectic solvent (DES) extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). A detailed explanation of various extraction parameters such as time, temperature, solid to liquid (S/L) ratio, and solvent/pepsin concentration is provided, which needs to be considered to optimize the collagen yield. Moreover, this review extends its focus to a detailed investigation of fish collagen applications in the biomedical sector, food sector, and in cosmetics. The comprehensive review explaining the extraction methods, extraction parameters, and the diverse applications of fish collagen provides a basis for the complete understanding of the potential of fish-derived collagen. The review concludes with a discussion of the current research and a perspective on the future development in this research field.

Abstract
The development of patient-specific bone scaffolds that can expedite bone regeneration has been gaining increased attention, especially for critical-sized bone defects or fractures. Precise adaptation of the scaffold to the region of implantation and reduced surgery times are also crucial at clinical scales. To this end, bioactive fluorcanasite glass-ceramic microparticulates were incorporated within a biocompatible photocurable resin matrix following which the biocomposite resin precursor was 3D-printed with digital light processing method to develop the bone scaffold. The printing parameters were optimized based on spot curing investigation, particle size data, and UV-visible spectrophotometry. In vitro cell culture with MG-63 osteosarcoma cell lines and pH study within simulated body fluid demonstrated a noncytotoxic response of the scaffold samples. Further, the in vivo bone regeneration ability of the 3D-printed biocomposite bone scaffolds was investigated by implantation of the scaffold samples in the rabbit femur bone defect model. Enhanced angiogenesis, osteoblastic, and osteoclastic activities were observed at the bone-scaffold interface, while examining through fluorochrome labelling, histology, radiography, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray microcomputed tomography. Overall, the results demonstrated that the 3D-printed biocomposite bone scaffolds have promising potential for bone loss rehabilitation.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 255:128094.

Abstract
Bioactive glasses (BGs) have been extensively employed in treating bone defects due to their capacity to bond and integrate with hard and soft tissues. To promote their characteristics, BGs are doped with therapeutic inorganic ions; Among these, Cerium (Ce) is of special attention because of its material and biological properties. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the addition of Ce to BG on the physicochemical and biological properties of the alginate/gelatin (Alg-Gel) scaffold compared with a similar scaffold that only contains BG45S5. The scaffolds were characterized for their biocompatibility using human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) by MTT analysis. The osteogenic differentiation of hBM-MSCs cultured on the scaffolds was assessed by evaluating the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the expression of osteogenic-related genes. Scanning electron microscopy of the prepared scaffolds showed an interconnected porous structure with an average diameter of 212-272 μm. The Young's modulus of the scaffolds significantly increased from 13 ± 0.82 MPa for Alg-Gel to 91 ± 1.76 MPa for Alg-Gel-BG/Ce. Ce doping improved the osteogenic differentiation of hBM-MSCs and ALP secretion compared to the other samples, even without adding an osteogenic differentiation medium. The obtained results demonstrated the biocompatibility and osteo-inductive potentials of the Alg-Gel-BG/Ce scaffold for bone tissue engineering.

Ginsenoside compound-K attenuates OVX-induced osteoporosis via the suppression of RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis and oxidative stress. NATURAL PRODUCTS AND BIOPROSPECTING 2023; 13:49. [PMID: 37940733 PMCID: PMC10632357 DOI: 10.1007/s13659-023-00405-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/10/2023]
Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP), a systemic and chronic bone disease, is distinguished by low bone mass and destruction of bone microarchitecture. Ginsenoside Compound-K (CK), one of the metabolites of ginsenoside Rb1, has anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and hypolipidemic activities. We have demonstrated CK could promote osteogenesis and fracture healing in our previous study. However, the contribution of CK to osteoporosis has not been examined. In the present study, we investigated the effect of CK on osteoclastogenesis and ovariectomy (OVX)-induced osteoporosis. The results showed that CK inhibited receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL)-mediated osteoclast differentiation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) activity by inhibiting the phosphorylation of NF-κB p65 and oxidative stress in RAW264.7 cells. In addition, we also demonstrated that CK could inhibit bone resorption using bone marrow-derived macrophages. Furthermore, we demonstrated that CK attenuated bone loss by suppressing the activity of osteoclast and alleviating oxidative stress in vivo. Taken together, these results showed CK could inhibit osteoclastogenesis and prevent OVX-induced bone loss by inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
The regeneration of weight-bearing bone defects and critical-sized cartilage defects remains a significant challenge. A wide range of nano-biomaterials are available for the treatment of bone/cartilage defects. However, their poor compatibility and biodegradability pose challenges to the practical applications of these nano-based biomaterials. Natural biomaterials inspired by the cell units (e.g., nucleic acids and proteins), have gained increasing attention in recent decades due to their versatile functionality, compatibility, biodegradability, and great potential for modification, combination, and hybridization. In the field of bone/cartilage regeneration, natural nano-based biomaterials have presented an unparalleled role in providing optimal cues and microenvironments for cell growth and differentiation. In this review, we systematically summarize the versatile building blocks inspired by the cell unit used as natural nano-based biomaterials in bone/cartilage regeneration, including nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and membranes. In addition, the opportunities and challenges of natural nano-based biomaterials for the future use of bone/cartilage regeneration are discussed.

Abstract
Guided tissue/bone regeneration (GTR/GBR) is currently the main treatment for alveolar bone regeneration. The commonly used barrier membranes in GTR/GBR are collagen membranes from mammals such as porcine or cattle. Fish collagen is being explored as a potential substitute for mammalian collagen due to its low cost, no zoonotic risk, and lack of religious constraints. Fish scale is a multi-layer natural collagen composite with high mechanical strength, but its biomedical application is limited due to the low denaturation temperature of fish collagen. In this study, a fish scale collagen membrane with a high denaturation temperature of 79.5 °C was prepared using an improved method based on preserving the basic shape of fish scales. The fish scale collagen membrane was mainly composed of type I collagen and hydroxyapatite, in which the weight ratios of water, organic matter, and inorganic matter were 20.7%, 56.9%, and 22.4%, respectively. Compared to the Bio-Gide® membrane (BG) commonly used in the GTR/GBR, fish scale collagen membrane showed good cytocompatibility and could promote late osteogenic differentiation of cells. In conclusion, the collagen membrane prepared from fish scales had good thermal stability, cytocompatibility, and osteogenic activity, which showed potential for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Esophageal cancer, one of the most common cancers in the upper digestive tract and is one of the leading cancer-related mortality worldwide. Accumulating studies found that Ginsenoside compound K (CK) has significantly anti-tumor effects, especially in the suppression of proliferation, migration, as well as invasion in various human cancers. While the effects of Ginsenoside CK in esophageal cancer have not been well studied. In our present study, we aim to explore the functions and mechanisms of Ginsenoside CK in the progression of esophageal cancer cells (Eca109). METHODS Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), wound healing, transwell and flow cytometry assays were applied to analyze the effects of Ginsenoside CK in the progression of Eca109 cell, western blot assay was used to investigate the potential downstream signaling pathway after Ginsenoside CK treatment. RESULTS Our study found that Ginsenoside CK can suppress cell proliferation, migration and invasion of Eca109 cell. Furthermore, the flow cytometry showed that Ginsenoside CK increased of apoptosis rates in Eca109 cell. The western blot results indicated that Ginsenoside CK decreased the expression of VEGF-A, P-Pi3k and P-Akt proteins. Moreover, the knockdown of VEGF-A gene could suppress cell proliferation, migration, invasion and induce apoptosis in Eca109 cell, and the expression of P-Pi3k and P-Akt proteins were significantly downregulated. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that Ginsenoside CK inhibits the proliferation, migration, invasion, and induced apoptosis of Eca109 cell by blocking VEGF-A/Pi3k/Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Bone is a dynamic organ that has the ability to repair minor injuries via regeneration. However, large bone defects with limited regeneration are debilitating conditions in patients and cause a substantial clinical burden. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is an alternative method that mainly involves three factors: scaffolds, biologically active factors, and cells with osteogenic potential. However, active factors such as bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) are costly and show an unstable release. Previous studies have shown that compounds of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) can effectively promote regeneration of bone defects when administered locally and systemically. However, due to the low bioavailability of these compounds, many recent studies have combined TCM compounds with materials to enhance drug bioavailability and bone regeneration. Hence, the article comprehensively reviewed the local application of TCM compounds to the materials in the bone regeneration in vitro and in vivo. The compounds included icariin, naringin, quercetin, curcumin, berberine, resveratrol, ginsenosides, and salvianolic acids. These findings will contribute to the potential use of TCM compound-loaded materials in BTE.

Abstract
The main causes for failure in implant surgery are prolonged exposure of implants or wound and tissue ischemia. Bacterial infection caused by the surrounding medical environment and equipment is also a major risk factor. The medical risk would be greatly reduced if we could develop an implant coating to guide tissue growth and promote antibacterial activity. Mesoporous bioactive glasses are mainly silicates with good osteoinductivity and have been used in medical dentistry and orthopedics for several decades. Strontium ions and silver ions could plausibly be incorporated into bioactive glass to achieve the required function. Strontium ions are trace elements in human bone that have been proposed to promote osseointegration and angiogenesis. Silver ions can cause bacterial apoptosis through surface charge imbalance after bonding to the cell membrane. In this study, functional polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) coatings were adhered to 316L stainless steel (SS) by spin coating. The multilayer film was composed of biocompatible and biodegradable collagen as a positively charged layer, γ-polyglutamic acid (γ-PGA) as a negatively charged layer. Chitosan was incorporated to the 11th positively charged layer as a stabilizing barrier. Spray pyrolysis prepared mesoporous bioactive glass incorporated with silver and strontium (AgSrMBG) was added to each negatively charged layer. The PEM/AgSrMBG coating was well hydrophilic with a contact angle of 37.09°, hardness of 0.29 ± 0.09 GPa, Young’s modulus of 5.35 ± 1.55 GPa, and roughness of 374.78 ± 22.27 nm, as observed through nano-indention and white light interferometry. The coating’s antibacterial activity was sustained for 1 month through the inhibition zone test, and was biocompatible with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), as observed in the MTT assay. There was more hydroxyapatite precipitation on the PEM/AgSrMBG surface after being soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF), as observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). In both in vitro and in vivo tests, the PEM/AgSrMBG coating promoted angiogenesis, osseointegration, and antibacterial activity due to the sustained release of silver and strontium ions.

Abstract
The addition of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA) and collagen (Col) to the alginate (Alg) microcapsule hydrogel reduced swelling and degradation ratios while the compressive strength increased compared to Alg, Alg-Col, and Alg-nHA groups. MTT assay and Calcein-AM staining revealed an enhanced MG-63 osteoblasts viability in the Alg-nHA-Col hydrogel compared to the other groups. SEM showed the attachment of MG-63 osteoblasts inside Alg-Col hydrogels. Non-significant differences were found in antioxidant capacity of cells inside the Alg-nHA-Col hydrogel compared to the Alg group. Hematoxylin-Eosin staining showed the distribution of MG-63 osteoblasts inside microspheres. Calcium deposits, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity with the increase of intracellular calcium were found in Alg-nHA-Col group. Western blotting showed that levels of osteocalcin, ColA2, Sox-9, and ColA1 also significantly increased compared to the Alg, Alg-Col, Alg-nHA groups. The present study demonstrated that the addition of mineral nHA and protein (Col) into the Alg improves osteogenic potential and provides a 3D platform for modular bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone is a hard-connective tissue composed of matrix, cells and bioactive factors with a hierarchical structure, where the matrix is mainly composed of type I collagen and hydroxyapatite. Collagen fibers assembled by collagen are the template for mineralization and make an important contribution to bone formation and the bone remodeling process. Therefore, collagen has been widely clinically used for bone/cartilage defect regeneration. However, pure collagen implants, such as collagen scaffolds or sponges, have limitations in the bone/cartilage regeneration process due to their poor mechanical properties and osteoinductivity. Different forms of collagen-based composites prepared by incorporating natural/artificial polymers or bioactive inorganic substances are characterized by their interconnected porous structure and promoting cell adhesion, while they improve the mechanical strength, structural stability and osteogenic activities of the collagen matrix. In this review, various forms of collagen-based biocomposites, such as scaffolds, sponges, microspheres/nanoparticles, films and microfibers/nanofibers prepared by natural/synthetic polymers, bioactive ceramics and carbon-based materials compounded with collagen are reviewed. In addition, the application of collagen-based biocomposites as cytokine, cell or drug (genes, proteins, peptides and chemosynthetic) delivery platforms for proangiogenesis and bone/cartilage tissue regeneration is also discussed. Finally, the potential application, research and development direction of collagen-based biocomposites in future bone/cartilage tissue regeneration are discussed.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials like bone, shells, and teeth can be found in nature, which are usually composed of biomacromolecules and nanoscale inorganic ingredients. Synergy of organic-inorganic components in hybrid materials render them outstanding and versatile performance. Chitosan is commonly used organic materials in bionic hybrid materials since its bioactive properties and could be controllable tailored by various means to meet complex conditions in different applications. Among these fabrication means, hybridization was favored for its convenience and efficiency. This review discusses three kinds of chitosan-based hybrid materials: hybridized with hydroxyapatite, calcium carbonate, and clay respectively, which are the representative of phosphate, carbonate, and hydrous aluminosilicates. Here, we reported the latest developments of the preparation methods, composition, structure and applications of these bioactive hybrid materials, especially in the biomedical field. Despite the great progress was made in bioactive organic-inorganic hybrid materials based on chitosan, some challenges and specific directions are still proposed for future development in this review.

Various Simulated Body Fluids Lead to Significant Differences in Collagen Tissue Engineering Scaffolds. MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14164388.

Abstract
This study aims to point out the main drawback with respect to the design of simulated body environments. Three media commonly used for the simulation of the identical body environment were selected, i.e., Kokubo’s simulated body fluid that simulates the inorganic component of human blood plasma, human blood plasma, and phosphate buffer saline. A comparison was performed of the effects of the media on collagen scaffolds. The mechanical and structural effects of the media were determined via the application of compression mechanical tests, the determination of mass loss, and image and micro-CT analyses. The adsorption of various components from the media was characterized employing energy-dispersive spectrometry. The phase composition of the materials before and after exposure was determined using X-ray diffraction. Infrared spectroscopy was employed for the interpretation of changes in the collagen secondary structure. Major differences in terms of the mechanical properties and mass loss were observed between the three media. Conversely, only minor structural changes were detected. Since no general recommendation exists for selecting the simulated body environment, it is necessary to avoid the simplification of the results and, ideally, to utilize alternative methods to describe the various aspects of degradation processes that occur in the media.

Abstract
Ginsenoside CK is one of the intestinal bacterial metabolites of ginsenoside prototype saponins, such as ginsenoside Rb1, Rb2, Rc, and Rd. Poor water solubility and low bioavailability have limited its application. The nanogel carriers could specifically deliver hydrophobic drugs to cancer cells. Therefore, in this study, a nanogel was constructed by the formation of Schiff base bonds between hydrazide-modified carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-NH2) and aldehyde-modified β-cyclodextrin (β-CD-CHO). A water-in-oil reverse microemulsion method was utilized to encapsulate ginsenoside CK via the hydrophobic cavity of β-CD. β-CD-CHO with a unique hydrophobic cavity carried out efficient encapsulation of CK, and the drug loading and encapsulation efficiency were 16.4% and 70.9%, respectively. The drug release of CK-loaded nanogels (CK-Ngs) in vitro was investigated in different pH environments, and the results showed that the cumulative release rate at pH 5.8 was 85.5% after 140 h. The methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) toxicity analysis indicated that the survival rates of A549 cells in CK-Ngs at 96 h was 2.98% compared to that of CK (11.34%). In vivo animal experiments exhibited that the inhibitory rates of CK-Ngs against tumor volume was 73.8%, which was higher than that of CK (66.1%). Collectively, the pH-responsive nanogel prepared herein could be considered as a potential nanocarrier for CK to improve its antitumor effects against lung cancer.

Abstract
Calcium phosphate nanoparticles have a high biocompatibility and biodegradability due to their chemical similarity to human hard tissue, for example, bone and teeth. They can be used as efficient carriers for different kinds of biomolecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, peptides, antibodies, or drugs, which alone are not able to enter cells where their biological effect is required. They can be loaded with cargo molecules by incorporating them, unlike solid nanoparticles, and also by surface functionalization. This offers protection, for example, against nucleases, and the possibility for cell targeting. If such nanoparticles are functionalized with fluorescing dyes, they can be applied for imaging in vitro and in vivo. Synthesis, functionalization and cell uptake mechanisms of calcium phosphate nanoparticles are discussed together with applications in transfection, gene silencing, imaging, immunization, and bone substitution. Biodistribution data of calcium phosphate nanoparticles in vivo are reviewed.

Abstract
Treatment of bone disease and disorders is often challenging due to its complex structure. Each year millions of people needs bone substitution materials with quick recovery from diseases conditions. Synthetic bone substitutes mimicking structural, chemical and biological properties of bone matrix structure will be very obliging and of copious need. In this work, we reported on the fabrication of bioinspired, biomimetic, multifunctional bone-like three-dimensional (3D) membranes made up of inorganic bioactive glass fibers matrixed organic collagen structure. The 3D structure is arranged as a stacked-layer similar to the order of apatite and neotissue formation. Comparative studies on collagen, collagen with hollow and solid bioactive glass fibers evidenced that, collagen/hollow bioactive glass is mechanically robust, has optimal hydrophilicity, simultaneously promotes bioactivity and in situ forming drug delivery. The 3D membrane displays outstanding mechanical properties apropos to the bioactive glass fibers arrangement, with its Youngs modulus approaching the modulus of cortical bone. The in vitro cell culture studies with fibroblast cells (3T3) on the membranes display enhanced cell adhesion and proliferation with the cell alignment similar to anisotropic cell alignment found in the native bone extracellular matrix. The membranes also support 3D cell culturing and exhibits cell proliferation on the membrane surface, which extends the possibility of its bone tissue engineering application. The alkaline phosphatase assessment and alizarin red staining of osteoblast cells (MG63) depicted an enhanced osteogenic activity of the membranes. Notable Runx2, Col-Type-1 mRNA, osteocalcin, and osteonectin levels were found to be significantly increased in cells grown on the collagen/hollow bioactive glass membrane. This membrane also promotes vascularization in the chick chorioallantoic membrane model. The results altogether evidence this multifunctional 3D membrane could potentially be utilized for treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has demonstrated superior therapeutic effect for musculoskeletal diseases for thousands of years. Recently, the herbal extracts of TCM have received rapid advances in musculoskeletal tissue engineering (MTE). A literature review collecting both English and Chinese references on bioactive herbal extracts of TCM in biomaterial-based approaches was performed. This review provides an up-to-date overview of application of TCMs in the field of MTE, involving regulation of multiple signaling pathways in osteogenesis, angiogenesis, anti-inflammation, and chondrogenesis. Meanwhile, we highlight the potential advantages of TCM, opening the possibility of its extensive application in MTE. Overall, the superiority of traditional Chinese medicine turns it into an attractive candidate for coupling with advanced additive manufacturing technology.

Abstract
The utilization of marine-based collagen is growing fast due to its unique properties in comparison with mammalian-based collagen such as no risk of transmitting diseases, a lack of religious constraints, a cost-effective process, low molecular weight, biocompatibility, and its easy absorption by the human body. This article presents an overview of the recent studies from 2014 to 2020 conducted on collagen extraction from marine-based materials, in particular fish by-products. The fish collagen structure, extraction methods, characterization, and biomedical applications are presented. More specifically, acetic acid and deep eutectic solvent (DES) extraction methods for marine collagen isolation are described and compared. In addition, the effect of the extraction parameters (temperature, acid concentration, extraction time, solid-to-liquid ratio) on the yield of collagen is investigated. Moreover, biomaterials engineering and therapeutic applications of marine collagen have been summarized.

Abstract
During the processing of the fishery resources, the significant portion is either discarded or used to produce low-value fish meal and oil. However, the discarded portion is the rich source of valuable proteins such as collagen, vitamins, minerals, and other bioactive compounds. Collagen is a vital protein in the living body as a component of a fibrous structural protein in the extracellular matrix, connective tissue and building block of bones, tendons, skin, hair, nails, cartilage and joints. In recent years, the use of fish collagen as an increasingly valuable biomaterial has drawn considerable attention from biomedical researchers, owing to its enhanced physicochemical properties, stability and mechanical strength, biocompatibility and biodegradability. This review focuses on summarizing the growing role of fish collagen for biomedical applications. Similarly, the recent advances in various biomedical applications of fish collagen, including wound healing, tissue engineering and regeneration, drug delivery, cell culture and other therapeutic applications, are discussed in detail. These applications signify the commercial importance of fish collagen for the fishing industry, food processors and biomedical sector.

Abstract
The repair of infective bone defects is a great challenge in clinical work. It is of vital importance to develop a kind of bone scaffold with good osteogenic properties and long-term antibacterial activity for local anti-infection and bone regeneration. A porous mineralized collagen (MC) scaffold containing poly(d,l-lactide-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres loaded with two antibacterial synthetic peptides, Pac-525 or KSL-W was developed and characterized via scanning electron microscopy (SEM), porosity measurement, swelling and mechanical tests. The results showed that the MC scaffold embedded with smooth and compact PLGA microspheres had a positive effect on cell growth and also had antibacterial properties. Through toxicity analysis, cell morphology and proliferation analysis and alkaline phosphatase evaluation, the antibacterial scaffolds showed excellent biocompatibility and osteogenic activity. The antibacterial property evaluated with Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli suggested that the sustained release of Pac-525 or KSL-W from the scaffolds could inhibit the bacterial growth aforementioned in the long term. Our results suggest that the antimicrobial peptides-loaded MC bone scaffold has good antibacterial and osteogenic activities, thus providing a great promise for the treatment of infective bone defects.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma is one of the most malignant bone tumors, and its major threats are aggressive invasion and early tumor metastasis, which result in a poor prognosis and high mortality. Accumulating evidence indicates that ginsenoside compound K (CK) has a significant antitumor effect, particularly on the inhibition of proliferation and invasion of numerous human tumors. In the present study, it was revealed that CK inhibited the viability and proliferation of osteosarcoma cells. Moreover, it was demonstrated that CK induced apoptosis and inhibited the migration and invasion of osteosarcoma cells via apoptotic staining, Annexin V/PI staining, and Transwell invasion assays. Furthermore, at the molecular level, the present results confirmed that apoptosis and invasion-related proteins were regulated by CK, which was possibly related to the blockade of the PI3K/mTOR/p70S6K1 signaling pathway. In summary, the present findings indicated that CK inhibited viability and proliferation, induced apoptosis, and inhibited the migration and invasion of osteosarcoma cells through the PI3K/mTOR/p70S6K1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
There is a substantial for the bone graft materials in the clinical field. Porous, stable and biodegradable bone microsphere scaffold using biopolymer chitosan was studied, and biphasic calcium phosphate was added to improve mechanical and osteoconductivity properties later ginseng compound K was added for improving its medicinal properties. They were characterized using FTIR and XRD that showed the apatite crystal in the composite microsphere scaffolds were structurally similar to that of biogenic apatite crystals. Scanning electron microscopy images confirmed the presence of hydroxyapatite on the surface of the composite microspheres. In vitro results infers that the composite microspheres are biocompatible with NIH 3T3 and MG63 cells and capable of supporting growth and spreading of MG-63 cells. Further, Osteogenic markers expression was found to be higher in rat bone marrow stem cells seeded on microsphere scaffolds compared to control. The prepared biocomposite porous microsphere scaffold developed in this study can be used as an alternative for the bone regeneration or bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The development of biodegradable scaffolds able to support cell growth has recently become of great importance. Therefore, the main objective of this work was the development of hybrid scaffolds made from the mixture of two biopolymers (collagen and chitosan) and the comparison of the effect of glutaraldehyde as crosslinking agent with three different crosslinking methods (chemical: genipin; physical: temperature and enzymatic: transglutaminase) in order to look for a promising candidate to substitute it. To achieve this purpose, the mechanical properties, structure, porosity, degree of crosslinking and swelling of the different scaffolds were assessed. The best ratio of biopolymers (collagen:chitosan) to form hybrid scaffolds was 1:1, which improve their mechanical and morphological properties compared to unitary scaffolds (only collagen or chitosan). In addition, the incorporation of 10% w/w transglutaminase (crosslinking agent) with respect to the mass of biopolymers made these scaffolds a good structure for the growth and proliferation of cells.

Abstract
Bone defects remain a significant health issue and a major cause of morbidity in elderly patients. Composites based on collagen/calcium phosphate have been widely used for bone repair in clinical applications, owing to their comparability to bone extracellular matrix. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a scaffold of collagen/calcium phosphate (COL/β-TCP) on bone formation to assess its potential use as a bone substitute to repair bone defects. Bilateral full-thickness critically sized calvarial defects (8 mm in diameter) were created in New Zealand white rabbits and treated with COL/β-TCP or COL scaffolds. One defect was also left unfilled as a control. Bone regeneration was assessed through histological evaluation using hematoxylin and eosin and Masson's trichrome staining after 4 and 8 weeks. Alizarin Red staining was also utilized to observe the mineralization process. Our findings indicated that COL/β-TCP implantation could better enhance bone regeneration than COL and exhibited both new bone growth and scaffold material degradation.

Abstract
Background Nowadays, production of nanocomposite scaffolds based on natural biopolymer, bioceramic, and metal ions is a growing field of research due to the potential for bone tissue engineering applications. Methods In this study, a nanocomposite scaffold for bone tissue engineering was successfully prepared using collagen (COL), beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and strontium oxide (SrO). A composition of β-TCP (4.9 g) was prepared by doping with SrO (0.05 g). Biocompatible porous nanocomposite scaffolds were prepared by freeze-drying in different formulations [COL, COL/β-TCP (1:2 w/w), and COL/β-TCP-Sr (1:2 w/w)] to be used as a provisional matrix or scaffold for bone tissue engineering. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. Moreover, the prepared scaffolds were characterized by physicochemical properties, such as porosity, swelling ratio, biodegradation, mechanical properties, and biomineralization. Results All the scaffolds had a microporous structure with high porosity (~ 95-99%) and appropriate pore size (100-200 μm). COL/β-TCP-Sr scaffolds had the compressive modulus (213.44 ± 0.47 kPa) higher than that of COL/β-TCP (33.14 ± 1.77 kPa). In vitro cytocompatibility, cell attachment and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity studies performed using rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Addition of β-TCP-Sr to collagen scaffolds increased ALP activity by 1.33-1.79 and 2.92-4.57 folds after 7 and 14 days of culture, respectively. Conclusion In summary, it was found that the incorporation of Sr into the collagen-β-TCP scaffolds has a great potential for bone tissue engineering applications.

Recent studies have identified the regulatory mechanism of collagen in bone ossification and resorption. Due to its excellent bio-mimicry property, collagen is used for the treatment of several bone and joint disease such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and osteopenia. In bone, the biological action of collagen is highly influenced by the interactions of other bone materials such as glycosaminoglycan and minerals. In view of the above perceptions, collagen was crosslinked with chitosan, hydroxyapatite (H), and chondroitin sulfate (Cs), to produce a natural bone-like 3D structure and to evaluate its effect on bone homeostasis using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblast, and bone marrow macrophages. The XRD and micro-CT data confirmed the arrangement of H crystallites in the chitosan-collagen-H-Cs (CCHCs) three-dimensional (3D)-matrix and the three-dimensional structure of the matrix. The stimulatory osteoblastogenic and exploitive osteoclastogenic activity of 3D-matrices were identified using differentiated osteoblasts and osteoclasts, respectively. Besides, osteogenic progenitor’s paracrine cues for osteoclastogenesis showed that the differentiated osteoblast secreted higher levels of RANKL to support osteoclastogenesis, and the effect was downregulated by the CCHCs 3D-matrix. From that, it was hypothesized that the morphology of the CCHCs 3D-matrix resembles trabecular bone, which enhances bone growth, limits bone resorption, and could be a novel biomaterial for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The principal focus of this work is the in-depth analysis of the biological efficiency of inorganic calcium-filled bacterial cellulose (BC) based hydrogel scaffolds for their future use in bone tissue engineering/bioengineering. Inorganic calcium was filled in the form of calcium phosphate (β-tri calcium phosphate (β-TCP) and hydroxyapatite (HA)) and calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). The additional calcium, CaCO₃ was incorporated following in vitro bio-mineralization. Cell viability study was performed with the extracts of BC based hydrogel scaffolds: BC-PVP, BC-CMC; BC-PVP-β-TCP/HA, BC-CMC-β-TCP/HA and BC-PVP-β-TCP/HA-CaCO₃, BC-CMC-β-TCP/HA-CaCO₃; respectively. The biocompatibility study was performed with two different cell lines, i.e., human fibroblasts, Lep-3 and mouse bone explant cells. Each hydrogel scaffold has facilitated notable growth and proliferation in presence of these two cell types. Nevertheless, the percentage of DNA strand breaks was higher when cells were treated with BC-CMC based scaffolds i.e., BC-CMC-β-TCP/HA and BC-CMC-β-TCP/HA-CaCO₃. On the other hand, the apoptosis of human fibroblasts, Lep-3 was insignificant in BC-PVP-β-TCP/HA. The scanning electron microscopy confirmed the efficient adhesion and growth of Lep-3 cells throughout the surface of BC-PVP and BC-PVP-β-TCP/HA. Hence, among all inorganic calcium filled hydrogel scaffolds, 'BC-PVP-β-TCP/HA' was recommended as an efficient tissue engineering scaffold which could facilitate the musculoskeletal (i.e., bone tissue) engineering/bioengineering.

Abstract
A variety of cryogenically-structured polymeric materials are of significant scientific and applied interest in various areas. However, in spite of considerable attention to these materials and intensive elaboration of their new examples, as well as the impressive growth in the number of the publications and patents on this topic over the past two decades, a marked variability of the used terminology and definitions is frequently met with in the papers, reviews, theses, patents, conference presentations, advertising materials and so forth. Therefore, the aim of this brief communication is to specify the basic terms and definitions in the particular field of macromolecular science.

Abstract
Ginsenoside compound K (CK) has been shown to exhibit anticancer properties. In this study, chitosan nanoparticles loaded with ginsenoside compound K (CK-NPs) were prepared as a delivery system using a self-assembly technique with amphipathic deoxycholic acid-O carboxymethyl chitosan as the carrier, which improved the water solubility of CK. By evaluating drug loading, entrapment efficiency, and in vitro release behavior, the feasibility of CK-NPs as a drug carrier nanoparticle for the treatment of human hepatic carcinoma cells (HepG2) was investigated. Result revealed that CK and CK-NPs showed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on HepG2 cells with IC50 values of 23.33 and 16.58 μg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, fluorescence imaging demonstrated that CK-NPs promoted cellular uptake in vitro. Therefore, all results indicated that CK-NPs might be a novel drug delivery system to improve the solubility and enhance the cytotoxic and apoptotic potentials of CK for effective liver cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
Collagen composite scaffolds have been used for a number of studies in tissue engineering. The hydration of such highly porous and hydrophilic structures may influence mechanical behaviour and porosity due to swelling. The differences in physical properties following hydration would represent a significant limiting factor for the seeding, growth and differentiation of cells in vitro and the overall applicability of such hydrophilic materials in vivo. Scaffolds based on collagen matrix, poly(DL-lactide) nanofibers, calcium phosphate particles and sodium hyaluronate with 8 different material compositions were characterised in the dry and hydrated states using X-ray microcomputed tomography, compression tests, hydraulic permeability measurement, degradation tests and infrared spectrometry. Hydration, simulating the conditions of cell seeding and cultivation up to 48 h and 576 h, was found to exert a minor effect on the morphological parameters and permeability. Conversely, hydration had a major statistically significant effect on the mechanical behaviour of all the tested scaffolds. The elastic modulus and compressive strength of all the scaffolds decreased by ~95%. The quantitative results provided confirm the importance of analysing scaffolds in the hydrated rather than the dry state since the former more precisely simulates the real environment for which such materials are designed.

Abstract
The various composition multicomponent chitosan/fish collagen/glycerin 3D porous scaffolds were developed and investigated the effect of various composition chitosan/fish collagen/glycerin on scaffolds morphology, mechanical strength, biostability and cytocompatibility. The scaffolds were fabricated via freeze-drying technique. The effects of various compositions consisting in 3D scaffolds were investigated via FT-IR analysis, porosity, swelling and mechanical tests, and effect on the morphology of scaffolds investigated microscopically. The biostability and cytocompatibility tests were used to explore the ability of scaffolds to use for tissue engineering application. The average pore sizes of scaffolds were in range of 100.73±27.62-116.01±52.06, porosity 71.72±3.46-91.17±2.42%, tensile modulus in dry environment 1.47±0.08-0.17±0.03MPa, tensile modulus in wet environment 0.32±0.03-0.14±0.04MPa and biodegradation rate (at day 30) 60.38±0.70-83.48±0.28%. In vitro culture of human fibroblasts and keratinocytes showed that the various composition multicomponent 3D scaffolds were good cytocompatibility however, the scaffolds contained high amount of fish collagen excellently facilitated cell proliferation and adhesion. It was found that the high amount fish collagen and glycerin scaffolds have high porosity, enough mechanical strength and biostability, and excellent cytocompatibility.

Abstract
Synthesis of hydroxyapatite (HA) through sol-gel process in different solvent systems is reported. Calcium nitrate tetrahydrate (CNTH) and diammonium hydrogen phosphate (DAHP) were used as calcium and phosphorus precursors, respectively. Three different synthesis reactions were carried out by changing the solvent media, while keeping all other process parameters constant. A measure of 0.5 M aqueous DAHP solution was used in all reactions while CNTH was dissolved in distilled water, tetrahydrofuran (THF) and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) at a concentration of 0.5 M. Ammonia solution (28-30%) was used to maintain the pH of the reaction mixtures in the 10-12 range. All reactions were carried out at 40 ± 2°C for 4 h. Upon completion of the reactions, products were filtered, washed and calcined at 500°C for 2 h. It was clearly demonstrated through various techniques that the dielectric constant and polarity of the solvent mixture strongly influence the chemical structure and morphological properties of calcium phosphate synthesized. Water-based reaction medium, with highest dielectric constant, mainly produced β-calcium pyrophosphate (β-CPF) with a minor amount of HA. DMF/water system yielded HA as the major phase with a very minor amount of β-CPF. THF/water solvent system with the lowest dielectric constant resulted in the formation of pure HA.

Abstract
In this work, for the first time, chlorogenic acid, a natural phytochemical, was conjugated to a lactoferrin derived antimicrobial peptide sequence RRWQWRMKKLG to develop a self-assembled template. To mimic the components of extracellular matrix, we then incorporated Type I Collagen, followed by a sequence of aggrecan peptide (ATEGQVRVNSIYQDKVSL) onto the self-assembled templates for potential applications in ligament tissue regeneration. Mechanical properties and surface roughness were studied and the scaffolds displayed a Young’s Modulus of 169 MP and an average roughness of 72 nm respectively. Thermal phase changes were studied by DSC analysis. Results showed short endothermic peaks due to water loss and an exothermic peak due to crystallization of the scaffold caused by rearrangement of the components. Biodegradability studies indicated a percent weight loss of 27.5 % over a period of 37 days. Furthermore, the scaffolds were found to adhere to fibroblasts, the main cellular component of ligament tissue. The scaffolds promoted cell proliferation and displayed actin stress fibers indicative of cell motility and attachment. Collagen and proteoglycan synthesis were also promoted, demonstrating increased expression and deposition of collagen and proteoglycans. Additionally, the scaffolds exhibited antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus epidermis bacteria, which is beneficial for minimizing biofilm formation if potentially used as implants. Thus, we have developed a novel biocomposite that may open new avenues to enhance ligament tissue regeneration.
