Abstract
The development of various osteogenic biomaterials has not only promoted the development of bone tissue engineering but also provided more possibilities for bone defect repair. However, most previous studies have focused on the interaction of biomaterials on endogenous or exogenous stem cells involved in the bone regeneration process while neglecting the effect of changes in the immune microenvironment of bone defect sites on bone regeneration after biomaterial implantation into the host. With the development of bone immunology, the role of various immune cells, especially macrophages, in bone regeneration has gradually attracted the attention of researchers. An increasing number of studies have begun to target macrophages to better promote bone regeneration by modulating the fate of macrophages in a spatiotemporally ordered manner to mimic the changes in the immune microenvironment of bone defect sites during the natural repair process of bone tissue. Chitosan is one of the most abundant natural polysaccharides in the world. In recent years, various chitosan-based biomaterials have been widely used in macrophage fate modulation and bone regeneration. In this review, we review the interaction between macrophages and scaffold materials, general information about chitosan, the modulation of macrophage fate by chitosan-based biomaterials, and their application in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Bacteria-induced epidemics and infectious diseases are seriously threatening the health of people around the world. In addition, antibiotic therapy has been inducing increasingly more serious bacterial resistance, which makes it urgent to develop new treatment strategies to combat bacteria, including multidrug-resistant bacteria. Natural extracts displaying antibacterial activity and good biocompatibility have attracted much attention due to greater concerns about the safety of synthetic chemicals and emerging drug resistance. These antibacterial components can be isolated and utilized as antimicrobials, as well as transformed, combined, or wrapped with other substances by using modern assistive technologies to fight bacteria synergistically. This review summarizes recent advances in natural extracts from three kinds of sources-plants, animals, and microorganisms-for antibacterial applications. This work discusses the corresponding antibacterial mechanisms and the future development of natural extracts in antibacterial fields.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is rising worldwide and leading to significant health issues and financial strain for patients. Traditional treatments for IVDD can alleviate pain but do not reverse disease progression, and surgical removal of the damaged disc may be required for advanced disease. The inflammatory microenvironment is a key driver in the development of disc degeneration. Suitable anti-inflammatory substances are critical for controlling inflammation in IVDD. Several treatment options, including glucocorticoids, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and biotherapy, are being studied for their potential to reduce inflammation. However, anti-inflammatories often have a short half-life when applied directly and are quickly excreted, thus limiting their therapeutic effects. Biomaterial-based platforms are being explored as anti-inflammation therapeutic strategies for IVDD treatment. This review introduces the pathophysiology of IVDD and discusses anti-inflammatory therapeutics and the components of these unique biomaterial platforms as comprehensive treatment systems. We discuss the strengths, shortcomings, and development prospects for various biomaterials platforms used to modulate the inflammatory microenvironment, thus providing guidance for future breakthroughs in IVDD treatment.

Immunomodulatory Effects Mediated by Nano Amorphous Calcium Phosphate/Chitosan Oligosaccharide Lactate Coatings Decorated with Selenium on Titanium Implants. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14040227. [PMID: 37103318 PMCID: PMC10143504 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14040227] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this work is in situ anodization/anaphoretic deposition of a nano amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP)/chitosan oligosaccharide lactate (ChOL) multifunctional hybrid coating decorated with selenium (Se) on a titanium substrate and in vivo investigation of its immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effect. Investigating phenomena at the implant-tissue interface of interest for controlled inflammation and immunomodulation was also the aim of the research. In our earlier research, we designed coatings based on ACP and ChOL on titanium with anticorrosive, antibacterial and biocompatible properties, while in the presented results we show that selenium addition makes this coating an immunomodulator. The immunomodulatory effect of the novel hybrid coating is characterized by the examination of the functional aspects in the tissue around the implant (in vivo): proinflammatory cytokines' gene expression, M1 (iNOS) and M2 (Arg1) macrophages, fibrous capsule formation (TGF-β) and vascularization (VEGF). The EDS, FTIR and XRD analyses prove the formation of a ACP/ChOL/Se multifunctional hybrid coating on Ti and the presence of Se. A higher M2/M1 macrophage ratio in the ACP/ChOL/Se-coated implants compared to pure titanium implants (a higher level of Arg1 expression) is noted at all time points examined (after 7, 14 and 28 days). Lower inflammation measured by gene expression of proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF, lower expression of TGF-β in the surrounding tissue and higher IL-6 expression (solely at day 7 post-implantation) is noted in presence of the ACP/ChOL/Se-coated implants.

Abstract
Mast cells play a pivotal role in initiating and directing host's immune response. They reside in tissues that primarily interface with the external environment. Activated mast cells respond to environmental cues throughout acute and chronic inflammation through releasing immune mediators via rapid degranulation, or long-term de novo expression. Mast cell activation results in the rapid release of a variety of unique enzymes and reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, the increased density of mast cell unique receptors like mas related G protein-coupled receptor X2 also characterizes the inflamed tissues. The presence of these molecules (either released mediators or surface receptors) are particular to the sites of active inflammation, and are a result of mast cell activation. Herein, the molecular design principles for capitalizing on these novel mast cell properties is discussed with the goal of manipulating localized inflammation. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Mast cells are immune regulating cells that play a crucial role in both innate and adaptive immune responses. The activation of mast cells causes the release of multiple unique profiles of biomolecules, which are specific to both tissue and disease. These unique characteristics are tightly regulated and afford a localized stimulus for targeting inflammatory diseases. Herein, these important mast cell attributes are discussed in the frame of highlighting strategies for the design of bioresponsive functional materials to target regions of inflammations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate bone response to micro-arc oxidation coated titanium alloy implants containing Ag. METHODS 144 titanium alloy implants were prepared by machine grinding and divided into three treatment groups as following, SLA group: sand-blasting and acid-etched coating; MAO group: micro-arc oxidation without Ag coating; MAO + Ag group: micro-arc oxidation containing Ag coating. Surface characterization of three kind of implants were observed by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer, scanning electron microscopy, High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscope and roughness analysis. The implants were inserted into dog femurs. 4, 8 and 12 weeks after operation, the bone response to the implant to the bone was evaluated by push-out experiment, histological and fluorescent labeling analysis. RESULTS MAO + Ag group consisted of a mixture of anatase and rutile. Ag was found in the form of Ag2O on the surface. The surface morphology of MAO + Ag group seemed more like a circular crater with upheaved edges and holes than the other two groups. The surface roughness of MAO and MAO + Ag groups were higher than SLA group, but no statistical difference between MAO and MAO + Ag groups. The contact angles in MAO + Ag group was smallest and the surface free energy was the highest among three groups. The maximum push-out strength of MAO and MAO + Ag groups were higher than SLA group at all time point, the value of MAO + Ag group was higher than MAO group at 4 and 8 weeks. Scanning electron microscopy examination for the surface and cross-section of the bone segments and fluorescent labeling analysis showed that the ability of bone formation and osseointegration in MAO + Ag group was higher than that of the other two groups. CONCLUSION The micro-arc oxidation combination with Ag coating is an excellent surface modification technique to posse porous surface structure and hydrophilicity on the titanium alloy implants surface and exhibits desirable ability of osseointegration.

Abstract
RNA interference is a promising way to treat cancer and the construction of a stable drug delivery system is critically important for its application. Gelatin nanospheres (GNs) comprise a biodegradable drug vehicle with excellent biocompatibility, but there are limited studies on its delivery and role in the stabilization of miRNA and siRNA. Breast cancer is the most diagnosed type of female cancer worldwide. Abnormal miRNA expression is closely related to the occurrence and progression of estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer. In this study, miR-4458 was upregulated in ER+ breast cancer and could inhibit MCF-7 cell viability, colony formation, migration, and invasion. Collagen type XI alpha 1 (COL11A1) was identified as a directly interacting protein of miR-4458 and an important component of the extracellular matrix. High COL11A1 expression was positively correlated with poor prognosis, lower overall survival, disease-free survival, and a late tumor-node-metastasis stage. COL11A1 knockdown could inhibit MCF-7 cell migration and invasion. GNs were used to load a miR-4458 mimic or COL11A1 siRNA (si-COL11A1) to achieve sustained and controlled release in xenograft nude mice. Their tumor volume was decreased, tumor cell apoptosis was promoted, and hepatic metastasis was significantly inhibited. Moreover, the DDR2/SRC signaling pathway was inactivated after transfection with the miR-4458 mimic and si-COL11A1. In conclusion, GNs can be potentially used to deliver siRNA or miRNA, and miR-4458 and COL11A1 can be possible targets for ER+ breast cancer treatment.

Abstract
The present work-study the decreasing fluoride ions toxicity on the rat heart via loading them on the chitosan nanoparticles (Cs NPs) surface to form the biologically compatible composite (Cs@NaF). The obtained nanocomposite was characterized by different techniques such as field emission scanning electron microscopy (FEG-SEM), zeta potential, and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The biochemical parameters in the albino rats perform, where twenty-eight male adult Sprague Dawley rats (average body weight of 150 ± 10 g) were obtained from the Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University, then acclimatized for two weeks before the experiment and divided into four groups in galvanized wire cages at room temperature (22-25 °C) with a 12-h photoperiod and fed a well-balanced commercial diet. The blood samples were obtained from the vena cava of the rat heart via estimation of the troponin T, Lactate dehydrogenase, and creatine phosphokinase. Also, immunoglobulins (IgA, IgM, and IgG) and hematological measurements have been performed on the rat heart. To express all of the data, the mean and standard error of the mean are utilized by (ANOVA), followed by Tukey's multiple comparison test. The modified chitosan with fluoride decreases the toxicity of fluoride via improving the rat heart function due to the presence of Cs NPs helped to mitigate some of the negative effects of fluoride therapy.

Abstract
Many infections are associated with the use of implantable medical devices. The excessive utilization of antibiotic treatment has resulted in the development of antimicrobial resistance. Consequently, scientists have recently focused on conceiving new ways for treating infections with a longer duration of action and minimum environmental toxicity. One approach in infection control is based on the development of antimicrobial coatings based on polymers and antimicrobial peptides, also termed as “natural antibiotics”.

Abstract
The unprecedented aging of the world's population will boost the need for orthopedic implants and expose their current limitations to a greater extent due to the medical complexity of elderly patients and longer indwelling times of the implanted materials. Biocompatible metals with multifunctional bioactive coatings promise to provide the means for the controlled and tailorable release of different medications for patient-specific treatment while prolonging the material's lifespan and thus improving the surgical outcome. The objective of this work is to provide a review of several groups of biocompatible materials that might be utilized as constituents for the development of multifunctional bioactive coatings on metal materials with a focus on antimicrobial, pain-relieving, and anticoagulant properties. Moreover, the review presents a summary of medications used in clinical settings, the disadvantages of the commercially available products, and insight into the latest development strategies. For a more successful translation of such research into clinical practice, extensive knowledge of the chemical interactions between the components and a detailed understanding of the properties and mechanisms of biological matter are required. Moreover, the cost-efficiency of the surface treatment should be considered in the development process.

Abstract
In spite of the considerable achievements in the field of regenerative medicine in the past several decades, osteochondral defect regeneration remains a challenging issue among diseases in the musculoskeletal system because of the spatial complexity of osteochondral units in composition, structure and functions. In order to repair the hierarchical tissue involving different layers of articular cartilage, cartilage-bone interface and subchondral bone, traditional clinical treatments including palliative and reparative methods have showed certain improvement in pain relief and defect filling. It is the development of tissue engineering that has provided more promising results in regenerating neo-tissues with comparable compositional, structural and functional characteristics to the native osteochondral tissues. Here in this review, some basic knowledge of the osteochondral units including the anatomical structure and composition, the defect classification and clinical treatments will be first introduced. Then we will highlight the recent progress in osteochondral tissue engineering from perspectives of scaffold design, cell encapsulation and signaling factor incorporation including bioreactor application. Clinical products for osteochondral defect repair will be analyzed and summarized later. Moreover, we will discuss the current obstacles and future directions to regenerate the damaged osteochondral tissues.

Abstract
Engineering multifunctional hydrogel systems capable of amplifying the regenerative capacity of endogenous progenitor cells via localized presentation of therapeutics under tissue inflammation is central to the translation of effective strategies for hard tissue regeneration. Here, we loaded dexamethasone (DEX), a pleotropic drug with anti-inflammatory and mineralizing abilities, into aluminosilicate clay nanotubes (halloysite clay nanotubes (HNTs)) to engineer an injectable multifunctional drug delivery system based on photo-cross-linkable gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel. In detail, a series of hydrogels based on GelMA formulations containing distinct amounts of DEX-loaded nanotubes was analyzed for physicochemical and mechanical properties and kinetics of DEX release as well as compatibility with mesenchymal stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs). The anti-inflammatory response and mineralization potential of the engineered hydrogels were determined in vitro and in vivo. DEX conjugation with HNTs was confirmed by FTIR analysis. The incorporation of DEX-loaded nanotubes enhanced the mechanical strength of GelMA with no effect on its degradation and swelling ratio. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images demonstrated the porous architecture of GelMA, which was not significantly altered by DEX-loaded nanotubes' (HNTs/DEX) incorporation. All GelMA formulations showed cytocompatibility with SHEDs (p < 0.05) regardless of the presence of HNTs or HNTs/DEX. However, the highest osteogenic cell differentiation was noticed with the addition of HNT/DEX 10% in GelMA formulations (p < 0.01). The controlled release of DEX over 7 days restored the expression of alkaline phosphatase and mineralization (p < 0.0001) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated SHEDs in vitro. Importantly, in vivo data revealed that DEX-loaded nanotube-modified GelMA (5.0% HNT/DEX 10%) led to enhanced bone formation after 6 weeks (p < 0.0001) compared to DEX-free formulations with a minimum localized inflammatory response after 7 days. Altogether, our findings show that the engineered DEX-loaded nanotube-modified hydrogel may possess great potential to trigger in situ mineralized tissue regeneration under inflammatory conditions.

[ In vivo study of liposome-modified polyetheretherketone implant on bacteriostasis and osseointegration]. BEIJING DA XUE XUE BAO. YI XUE BAN = JOURNAL OF PEKING UNIVERSITY. HEALTH SCIENCES 2021.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop dexamethasone plus minocycline-loaded liposomes (Dex/Mino liposomes) and apply them to improve bioinert polyetheretherketone (PEEK) surface, which could prevent post-operative bacterial contamination, enhance ossification for physiologic osseointegration, and finally reduce implant failure rates. METHODS Dex/Mino liposomes were covalently grafted onto the PEEK surface using polydopamine (pDA) coating as a medium. Confocal laser scanning microscopy was used to confirm the binding of fluorescently labeled liposomes onto the PEEK substrate, and a microplate reader was used to semiquantitatively measure the average fluorescence intensity of fluorescently labeled liposome-decorated PEEK surfaces. Moreover, the mouse subcutaneous infection model and the beagle femur implantation model were respectively conducted to verify the bioactivity of Dex/Mino liposome-modified PEEK in vivo, by means of micro computed tomography (micro-CT) and hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining analysis. RESULTS The qualitative and quantitative results of fluorescently labeled liposomes showed that, the red fluorescence intensity of the PEEK-pDA-lipo group was stronger than that of the PEEK-NF-lipo group (P < 0.05); the liposomes were successfully and uniformly decorated on the PEEK surfaces due to the pDA coating. After mouse subcutaneous implantation of PEEKs for 24 hours, HE staining results showed that the number of inflammatory cells in the PEEK-Dex/Mino lipo group were lower than that in the inert PEEK group (P < 0.05), indicating a lower degree of infection in the test group. These results suggested that the Mino released from the liposome-functionalized surface provided an effective bacteriostasis in vivo. After beagle femoral implantation of PEEK for 8 weeks, micro-CT results showed that the PEEK-Dex/Mino lipo group newly formed more continuous bone when compared with the inert PEEK group; HE staining results showed that more new bones were formed in the PEEK-Dex/Mino lipo group than in the inert PEEK group, which were firmly bonded to the functionalized PEEK surface and extended along the PEEK interface. These results suggested that the Dex released from the liposome-functionalized surface induced effective bone regeneration in vivo. CONCLUSION Dex/Mino liposome modification enhanced the bioactivity of inert PEEK, the functionalized PEEK with enhanced antibacterial and osseointegrative capacity has great potential as an orthopedic/dental implant material for clinical application.

Abstract
Muscle atrophy usually occurs under mechanical unloading, which increases the risk of injury to reduce the functionality of the moving system, while there is still no effective therapy until now. It was found that miR-194 was significantly downregulated in a muscle atrophy model, and its target protein was the myocyte enhancer factor 2C (MEF2C). miR-194 could promote muscle differentiation and also inhibit ubiquitin ligases, thus miR-194 could be used as a nucleic acid drug to treat muscle atrophy, whereas miRNA was unstable in vivo, limiting its application as a therapeutic drug. A gelatin nanosphere (GN) delivery system was applied for the first time to load exogenous miRNA here. Exogenous miR-194 was loaded in GNs and injected into the muscle atrophy model. It demonstrated that the muscle fiber cross-sectional area, in situ muscle contractile properties, and myogenic markers were increased significantly after treatment. It proposed miR-194 loaded in GNs as an effective treatment for muscle atrophy by promoting muscle differentiation and inhibiting ubiquitin ligase activity. Moreover, the developed miRNA delivery system, taking advantage of its tunable composition, degradation rate, and capacity to load various drug molecules with high dosage, is considered a promising platform to achieve precise treatment of muscle atrophy-related diseases.

Abstract
The introduction of nanoparticles into bone tissue engineering strategies is beneficial to govern cell fate into osteogenesis and the regeneration of large bone defects. The present study explored the role of nanoparticles to advance osteogenesis with a focus on the cellular and molecular pathways involved. Pubmed, Pubmed Central, Embase, Scopus, and Science Direct databases were explored for those published articles relevant to the involvement of nanoparticles in osteogenic cellular pathways. As multifunctional compounds, nanoparticles contribute to scaffold-free and scaffold-based tissue engineering strategies to progress osteogenesis and bone regeneration. They regulate inflammatory responses and osteo/angio/osteoclastic signaling pathways to generate an osteogenic niche. Besides, nanoparticles interact with biomolecules, enhance their half-life and bioavailability. Nanoparticles are promising candidates to promote osteogenesis. However, the interaction of nanoparticles with the biological milieu is somewhat complicated, and more considerations are recommended on the employment of nanoparticles in clinical applications because of NP-induced toxicities.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), which have the ability to differentiate into osteoblasts, show promise for bone tissue engineering and bone defect treatment. While there are a number of approaches currently available to accomplish this, e.g., utilizing biodegradable materials loaded with the synthetic glucocorticoid osteogenic inducer dexamethasone (DEX), there are still many disadvantages with the current technologies. Here, we generated light-responsive microgels that we showed are capable of loading and releasing DEX in a light-triggered fashion, with the released DEX being able to induce hMSC differentiation into osteoblasts. Specifically, light-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-nitrobenzyl methacrylate) (pNIPAm-co-NBMA) microgels were synthesized via free radical precipitation polymerization and their size, morphology, and chemical composition were characterized. We then went on to show that the microgels could be loaded with DEX (via what we think are hydrophobic interactions) and released upon exposure to UV light. We went on to show that the DEX released from the microgels was still capable of inducing osteogenic differentiation of hMSCs using an alamarBlue assay and normalized alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay. We also investigated how hMSC differentiation was impacted by intermittent DEX released from UV-exposed microgels. Finally, we confirmed that the microgels themselves were not cytotoxic to hMSCs. Taken together, the DEX-loaded light-responsive microgels reported here may find a use for niche clinical applications, e.g., bone tissue repair.

Abstract
Implants and prostheses are widely used to replace damaged tissues or to treat various diseases. However, besides the risk of bacterial or fungal infection, an inflammatory response usually occurs. Here, recent progress in the field of anti-inflammatory biomaterials is described. Different materials and approaches are used to decrease the inflammatory response, including hydrogels, nanoparticles, implant surface coating by polymers, and a variety of systems for anti-inflammatory drug delivery. Complex multifunctional systems dealing with inflammation, microbial infection, bone regeneration, or angiogenesis are also described. New promising stimuli-responsive systems, such as pH- and temperature-responsive materials, are also being developed that would enable an "intelligent" antiinflammatory response when the inflammation occurs. Together, different approaches hold promise for creation of novel multifunctional smart materials allowing better implant integration and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Metallic implants have dominated the biomedical implant industries for the past century for load-bearing applications, while the polymeric implants have shown great promise for tissue engineering applications. The surface properties of such implants are critical as the interaction of implant surfaces, and the body tissues may lead to unfavourable reactions. Desired implant properties are biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and antibacterial activity. A polymer coating is an efficient and economical way to produce such surfaces. A lot of research has been carried out on chitosan (CS)-modified metallic and polymer scaffolds in the last decade. Different methods such as electrophoretic deposition, sol-gel methods, dip coating and spin coating, electrospinning, etc. have been utilized to produce CS coatings. However, a systematic review of chitosan coatings on scaffolds focussing on widely employed techniques is lacking. This review surveys literature concerning the current status of orthopaedic applications of CS for the purpose of coatings. In this review, the various preparation methods of coating, and the role of the surface functionalities in determining the efficiency of coatings are discussed. Effect of nanoparticle additions on the polymeric interfaces and in regulating the properties of surface coatings are also investigated in detail.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) and its alloys are believed to be promising scaffold materials for dental and orthopedic implantation due to their ideal mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, the host immune response always causes implant failures in the clinic. Surface modification of the Ti scaffold is an important factor in this process and has been widely studied to regulate the host immune response and to further promote bone regeneration. In this study, a calcium-strontium-zinc-phosphate (CSZP) coating was fabricated on a Ti implant surface by phosphate chemical conversion (PCC) technique, which modified the surface topography and element constituents. Here, we envisioned an accurate immunomodulation strategy via delivery of interleukin (IL)-4 to promote CSZP-mediated bone regeneration. IL-4 (0 and 40 ng/mL) was used to regulate immune response of macrophages. The mechanical properties, biocompatibility, osteogenesis, and anti-inflammatory properties were evaluated. The results showed that the CSZP coating exhibited a significant enhancement in surface roughness and hydrophilicity, but no obvious changes in proliferation or apoptosis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) and macrophages. In vitro, the mRNA and protein expression of osteogenic related factors in BMMSCs cultured on a CSZP coating, such as ALP and OCN, were significantly higher than those on bare Ti. In vivo, there was no enhanced bone formation but increased macrophage type 1 (M1) polarization on the CSZP coating. IL-4 could induce M2 polarization and promote osteogenesis of BMMSCs on CSZP in vivo and in vitro. In conclusion, the CSZP coating is an effective scaffold for BMMSCs osteogenesis, and IL-4 presents the additional advantage of modulating the immune response for bone regeneration on the CSZP coating in vivo. A chemical conversion calcium-strontium-zinc-phosphate (CSZP) coating is prepared on titanium. The CSZP coating exhibits micellar lamellar crystal morphology in micro-nano scale. The CSZP coating has an optimal topography and element composition for osteogenesis. Interleukin-4 assisted CSZP coating can obtain better osteoimmunomodulation properties.

Abstract
Herein, we proposed a drug-free strategy named cell surface shellization to inhibit the motility of SKOV-3 and HeLa cells. We alternately deposited two- or three-layer cationic polyelectrolyte (PE) and anionic PE films on the surface of SKOV-3 and HeLa cells. Then, a mineral shell (calcium carbonate, CaCO3) was formed on the surface of polymer shells via electrostatic force and biomineralization. The CCK-8 assay results and live/dead staining showed that the surface shells strongly aggravated the cytotoxicity. The monolayer scratch wound migration assay results and immunofluorescence staining results showed that the shells, especially the mineral shells, could efficiently inhibit the migration of SKOV-3 and HeLa cells without any anticancer drugs. The immunofluorescence results of the three small G proteins of the cells showed that the immunofluorescence intensity in SKOV-3 did not change. Preliminary results from our laboratory showed an increase in MMP-9 secreted by cancer cells after coating with films or mineral shells. It suggests that mechanisms that inhibit cell migration are related to the MMP signaling pathway. All the results indicated that shellization (films or nanomineral shells) but not limited to calcification can be used as one of the tools to change the function of cells.

Abstract
In vitro studies had shown that C-Phycocyanin (C-PC) inhibited cervical cancer HeLa cells growth. We constructed C-PC/CMC-CD55sp nanospheres using C-PC, Carboxymethyl Chitosan (CMC), and CD55 ligand peptide (CD55sp) to allow for targeted antitumor effects against HeLa cells in vitro and in vivo. The characteristics of the nanospheres were determined using FTIR, electron microscopy, and laser particle size analysis. Flow cytometry, laser confocal microscopy and small animal imaging system showed the targeting of C-PC/CMC-CD55sp nanospheres on HeLa cells. Subsequently, the proliferation and apoptosis were analyzed by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, TUNEL assay and electron microscopy. The expression of the apoptosis-related protein was determined using western blot. The stainings of Hematoxylin and Eosin (HE) were employed to evaluate the cell condition of tumor tissue sections. The cytokines in the blood in tumor-bearing nude mice was determined using ELISA. These results showed that C-PC/CMC-CD55sp nanospheres were successfully constructed and targeted HeLa cells. The constructed nanospheres were more effective than C-PC alone in inhibiting the proliferation and inducing apoptosis in HeLa cells. We also found that C-PC/CMC-CD55sp nanospheres had a significant inhibitory effect on the expression of antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2 and a promotion on the transformation of caspase 3 to cleaved caspase 3. C-PC/CMC-CD55sp nanospheres played an important role in tumor suppression, reduced the expression TGF-β, and increased IL-6 and TNF-α. This study demonstrates that the constructed new C-PC/CMC-CD55sp nanospheres exerted targeted antitumor effects in vivo and in vitro which provided a novel idea for application of C-PC, and provided experimental basis for comprehensive targeted treatment of tumors.

Abstract
Aim: Additively manufactured (3D printed), stainless steel implants were coated with dexamethasone using gelatin, chondroitin sulfate for use in bone graft surgeries. Materials & methods: The drug and polymers were deposited on the implants with a rough surface using a high precision air brush. The gelatin-chondroitin sulfate layers were cross-linked using glutaraldehyde. Results: The drug content uniformity was within 100 ± 5%, and the thickness of the polymer layer was 410 ± 5.2 μm. The in vitro release studies showed a biphasic pattern with an initial burst release followed by slow release up to 3 days. Conclusion: These results are very promising as the slow release implants can be further tested in vivo in large animals, such as cattle and horses to prevent the inflammatory cascade following surgeries.

Abstract
With the development of surface modification technology, interface properties have great effects on the interaction between biomedical materials and cells and biomolecules, which significantly affects the biocompatibility and functionality of materials. As an orderly and perfect system, biological organisms in nature effectively integrate all kinds of bio-interfaces with physiological functions, which shed light on the importance of biomolecules in organisms. It gives birth to a bio-inspiration strategy to design and fabricate smart materials with specific functionalities, e.g. osteogenic and chondrocytic induced materials inspired by bone sialoprotein and chondroitin sulfate. Through this mimicking approach, various functional materials were utilized to decorate the interfaces and further optimize the performance of biomedical materials, which would widely expand their applications. In this review, followed by a summary and brief introduction of surface modification methods, we highlight recent advances in the fabrication of functional polymeric materials inspired by a range of biomolecules for decorating interfaces. Then, the other applications of biomolecule inspired materials including tissue engineering, diagnosis and treatment of diseases and physiological function regulation are presented and the future outlook is discussed as well.

Abstract
The understanding of chemical-physical, morphological, and mechanical properties of polymer coatings is a crucial preliminary step for further biological evaluation of the processes occurring on the coatings' surface. Several studies have demonstrated how surface properties play a key role in the interactions between biomolecules (e.g., proteins, cells, extracellular matrix, and biological fluids) and titanium, such as chemical composition (investigated by means of XPS, TOF-SIMS, and ATR-FTIR), morphology (SEM-EDX), roughness (AFM), thickness (Ellipsometry), wettability (CA), solution-surface interactions (QCM-D), and mechanical features (hardness, elastic modulus, adhesion, and fatigue strength). In this review, we report an overview of the main analytical and mechanical methods commonly used to characterize polymer-based coatings deposited on titanium implants by electro-assisted techniques. A description of the relevance and shortcomings of each technique is described, in order to provide suitable information for the design and characterization of advanced coatings or for the optimization of the existing ones.

Abstract
In the last few decades, polysaccharide and protein hydrogels have attracted significant attentions and been applied in various engineering fields. Polysaccharide and protein hydrogels with appealing physical and biological features have been produced to meet different biomedical applications for their excellent properties related to biodegradability, biocompatibility, nontoxicity, and stimuli responsiveness. Numerous methods, such as chemical crosslinking, photo crosslinking, graft polymerization, hydrophobic interaction, polyelectrolyte complexation and electrodeposition have been employed to prepare polysaccharide and protein hydrogels. Electrodeposition is a facile way to produce different polysaccharide and protein hydrogels with the advantages of temporal and spatial controllability. This paper reviews the recent progress in the electrodeposition of different polysaccharide and protein hydrogels. The strategies of pH induced assembly, Ca2+ crosslinking, metal ions induced assembly, oxidation induced assembly derived from electrochemical methods were discussed. Pure, binary blend and ternary blend polysaccharide and protein hydrogels with multiple functionalities prepared by electrodeposition were summarized. In addition, we have reviewed the applications of these hydrogels in drug delivery, tissue engineering and wound dressing.

Abstract
Implant materials applied in bone defect commonly focus on the inducement of bone regeneration and neglect to cure complications including bacterial infection and inflammation, which may result in delayed unions or even amputation. In this study, a microporous silica nanoparticle-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-b-(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) is synthesized for loading DXMS and the ECM-derived peptide (Sequence: Succinic acid-GTPGPQGIAGQRGVV) in order to enhance the osteoblast calcification and relieve related symptoms. Positively charged PDMA blocks endow the nanoparticle with the antimicrobial property. Moreover, the combination of DXMS makes it have the ability of anti-inflammation and promoting calcification formation. Furthermore, incorporation of the peptide leads to a significant improvement of mineralization and alkaline phosphatase expression in the preosteoblast. After intramuscular implantation in mice for four weeks, the results indicate the composite nanoparticle can promote ectopic bone formation. These combined properties make the composite silicon nanoparticle a promising osteogenic drug appropriate for further study in bone repair and related combination therapy.

Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is considered a potential orthopedic/dental material because of its excellent mechanical and chemical properties (e.g., similar elastic modulus to that of human bone). However, the poor bacteriostasis and anti-inflammatory and osseointegrative properties of bioinert PEEK impede its clinical application. We previously developed a facile and versatile surface modification method using dexamethasone plus minocycline-loaded liposomes (Dex/Mino liposomes) bonded by a mussel-inspired polydopamine coating, which effectively modulated cell inflammatory response and discouraged bacterial colonization in vitro. Herein, we report the application of this multifunctional surface modification method to improve bioinert PEEK, aimed at further studying the in vitro osteogenesis and in vivo properties of Dex/Mino liposome-modified PEEK to prevent bacterial contamination, attenuate the inflammatory response, and enhance ossification for physiologic osseointegration. Our study established that the Dex/Mino liposome-modified PEEK surface presented favorable stability and cytocompatibility. Compared with bare PEEK, improved osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells under both osteoinductive and osteoconductive conditions was found on the functionalized surface due to the liposomal Dex releasing. In vivo bacteriostasis assay confirmed that Mino released from the functionalized surface provided an effective antibacterial effect. Moreover, the subcutaneous foreign body reaction and beagle femur implantation models corroborated the enhanced anti-inflammatory and osteointegrative properties of the functionalized PEEK. Our findings indicate that the developed Dex/Mino liposome-modified PEEK with enhanced antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and osseointegrative capacity has great potential as an orthopedic/dental implant material for clinical application.

Abstract
Biodegradable polymer coatings on magnesium alloys are attractive, as they can provide corrosion resistance as well as additional functions for biomedical applications, e.g., drug delivery. A gelatin nanospheres/chitosan (GNs/CTS) composite coating on WE43 substrate was fabricated by electrophoretic deposition with simvastatin (SIM) loaded into the GNs. Apart from a sustained drug release over 28 days, an anticorrosion behavior of the coated WE43 substrates was confirmed by electrochemical tests. Both the degradation and corrosion rates of the coated substrate were significantly minimized in contrast to bare WE43. The cytocompatibility of the coated samples was analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. Additionally, the osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells on SIM-containing coatings was assessed by measuring the expression of osteogenic genes and related proteins, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and extracellular matrix mineralization, showing that the SIM-loaded composite coating could upregulate the expression of osteogenic genes and related proteins, promote ALP activity, and enhance extracellular matrix mineralization. In summary, the SIM-loaded GNs/CTS composite coatings were able to enhance the corrosion resistance of the WE43 substrate and promote osteogenic activity, thus demonstrating a promising coating system for modifying the surface of magnesium alloys targeted for orthopedic applications.

Abstract
Guided bone regeneration (GBR) membranes have the potential to prevent the invasion of epithelial and connective tissues as well as to maintain a stable space for facilitating the ingrowth of regenerative bone tissue. However, the bioactivity and regeneration potential of currently available membranes still need to be improved. In this study, a novel bi-layered membrane with both osteogenic and antibacterial functions was developed for GBR applications. The loose layer (LL) of the membrane was composed of conjugated electrospun poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA)/gelatin nanofibers incorporating dexamethasone-loaded mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DEX@MSNs), while the dense layer (DL) of the membrane consisted of traditionally electrospun PLGA nanofibers loaded with the broad-spectrum antibiotic doxycycline hyclate (DCH). Morphological results showed that the LL (DEX@MSNs/PLGA/Gel) membrane exhibited a porous and loosely packed structure, which was beneficial for cell adhesion and infiltration, while the DL (DCH/PLGA) membrane remained dense enough to act as a barrier. In vitro drug release tests indicated that both DEX and DCH followed a favorable sustained release profile. The cell viability evaluation suggested that the electrospun membranes possessed good cytocompatibility. Furthermore, in vitro osteogenesis analyses demonstrated that the DEX@MSNs/PLGA/Gel composite membrane possessed an enhanced osteoinductive capacity for rat bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs), which was verified by the increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, the enhanced calcium deposition, and the upregulated osteocalcin (OCN) expression. In vitro antimicrobial experiments revealed the effective antibacterial potency of the DCH/PLGA membrane. In conclusion, the prepared nanocarrier-incorporated bi-layered composite membrane with combined osteogenic and antibacterial properties may be a promising candidate for GBR application.

[PMID: 30201562 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2018.09.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2018] [Revised: 08/31/2018] [Accepted: 09/07/2018] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Alginate and polycaprolactone (PCL) were coelectrospun as composite nanofibers for in situ transfection, in which anionic alginate fibers were used to adsorb polyethyleneimine (PEI)/DNA polyplexes and biocompatible PCL fibers were applied to promote cell adhesion. To improve gene immobilization, direct-current electric field (DCEF) was applied to guide cationic polyplexes toward nanofibers on cathode. Fluorescent labeling experiments suggested that the applied DCEF not only accelerated but also increased the saturation levels of gene immobilization. Interestingly, these DCEF also increased the degradation of nanofibers. The water contact angle and Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry results indicated that the degraded component was mainly alginate. It suggested that the DCEF treatment may cause the electrophoresis of calcium ions to destabilize alginates fibers, and thus the degradation rates increased with the applied voltages. This alginate degradation increased the ratio of PCL in composite fibers, so the cell adhesion, viability, and proliferation were improved. Finally, these DCEF-treated fibers were used for substrate-mediated gene delivery. The transfection efficiency highly increased with DCEF when the voltages were lower than 1.5 V. This dynamic scaffold system not only provided a suitable microenvironment for cell ingrowth, but also improved gene immobilization and transfection, and thus promised its therapeutic effect for tissue regeneration.
