Black phosphorus quantum dot-modified ADSCs as a novel therapeutic for periodontitis bone loss coupling of osteogenesis and osteoimmunomodulation. Mater Today Bio 2024; 27:101122. [PMID: 38975241 PMCID: PMC11225909 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 06/09/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Alveolar bone defect repair remains a persistent clinical challenge for periodontitis treatment. The use of peripheral functional seed cells is a hot topic in periodontitis. Herein, we explored the cellular behaviors and osteogenic ability of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) treated with black phosphorus quantum dots (BPQDs). Additionally, macrophage polarization, osteogenic effects and angiogenesis were investigated through the paracrine pathway regulated by BPQD-modified ADSCs. Our results demonstrated that BPQDs showed good biocompatibility with ADSCs and BPQD-modified ADSCs could improve the bone repair in vivo inflammatory microenvironment by regulating osteogenesis and osteoimmunomodulation. The BPQDs increased the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs via the Wnt/β-catenin and BMP2/SMAD5/Runx2 signaling pathway. In addition, BPQD-modified ADSCs promoted the osteogenic effect of BMSCs and facilitated the polarization of macrophages from M1 towards M2 phenotype transformation through the paracrine pathway in the periodontitis microenvironment. This strategy provides a novel idea for treatment of alveolar bone defects for periodontitis in the foreseeable future.

Abstract
Black phosphorus (BP) is a new type of nanomaterial, which has been widely used in many biomedical fields due to its superior properties, but there are few studies on the toxicity of BP, especially in the reproductive system. To explore the effects of BP exposure on reproduction and reveal its molecular mechanism, we firstly investigated the potential toxicity of black phosphorus nanoparticles (BPNPs) in vivo. The results showed that BP exposure in pregnant mice can reduce the weight of fetal mice and placenta. H&E staining further indicated the changes of placental cross-section and vascular remodeling after BP treatment. Then, human exvillous trophoblast HTR8/SVneo was treated with different concentrations of BPNPs. We found that BPNPs induced significant cytotoxicity, including dose-dependent reduction of cell viability and proliferation. Trophoblast cell migration and invasion were also impaired by BPNPs exposure. Moreover, pretreatment with Cytochalasin D (Cyto-D), a classical phagocytic inhibitor, alleviated the decline of cell viability induced by BPNPs. Transcriptome sequencing showed that BPNPs exposure led to ferroptosis. Subsequently, the related indexes of ferroptosis were detected, including increase of iron ion concentration, decrease of the ferroptosis marker, GPX4 (Glutathione Peroxidase 4), increase of FTL (Ferritin Light Chain), and increase of lipid peroxidation indexes (MDA level and decrease of GSH level). In addition, ferroptosis inhibitors (Fer-1 and DFO) pretreatment can alleviate both the cytotoxic effects and functional impairment induced by BPNPs. In summary, our study confirmed the reproductive toxicity of BPNPs for the first time, and constructed BPNPs injury model in vitro using human villus trophoblast cells and revealed the role of ferroptosis in this process, which deepened our understanding of the biosafety of black phosphorus nanomaterials.

Abstract
Tremendous research efforts have been devoted to nanoparticles for applications in optoelectronics and biomedicine. Over the past decade, quantum dots (QDs) have become one of the fastest growing areas of research in nanotechnology because of outstanding photophysical properties, including narrow and symmetrical emission spectrum, broad fluorescence excitation spectrum, the tenability of the emission wavelength with the particle size and composition, anti-photobleaching ability and stable fluorescence. These characteristics are suitable for optical imaging, drug delivery and other biomedical applications. Research on QDs toxicology has demonstrated QDs affect or damage the biological system to some extent, and this situation is generally caused by the metal ions and some special properties in QDs, which hinders the further application of QDs in the biomedical field. The toxicological mechanism mainly stems from the release of heavy metal ions and generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). At the same time, the contact reaction with QDs also cause disorders in organelles and changes in gene expression profiles. In this review, we try to present an overview of the toxicity and related toxicity mechanisms of QDs in different target organs. It is believed that the evaluation of toxicity and the synthesis of environmentally friendly QDs are the primary issues to be addressed for future widespread applications. However, considering the many different types and potential modifications, this review on the potential toxicity of QDs is still not clearly elucidated, and further research is needed on this meaningful topic.

Abstract
The production scalability and increasing demand for nano-black phosphorus materials (nano-BPs) inevitably lead to their environmental leakage, thereby raising the risk of human exposure through inhalation, ingestion, dermal, and even intravenous pathways. Consequently, a systematic evaluation of their potential impacts on human health is necessary. This Review outlines recent progress in the understanding of various biological responses to nano-BPs. Attention is particularly given to the inconsistent toxicological findings caused by a wide variation of nano-BPs' physicochemical properties, toxicological testing methods, and cell types examined in each study. Additionally, cellular uptake and intracellular trafficking, cell death modes, immunological effects, and other biologically relevant processes are discussed in detail, providing evidence for the potential health implications of nano-BPs. Finally, we address the remaining challenges related to the health risk evaluation of nano-BPs and propose a broader range of applications for these promising nanomaterials.
