Stem-Cell-Regenerative and Protective Effects of Squid ( Symplectoteuthis oualaniensis) Skin Collagen Peptides against H 2O 2-Induced Fibroblast Injury. Mar Drugs 2024; 22:255. [PMID: 38921566 PMCID: PMC11204806 DOI: 10.3390/md22060255] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Recently, there has been a growing interest in collagen peptides derived from marine sources for their notable ability to protect skin cells against apoptosis induced by oxidants. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the fundamental properties of collagen peptides, including their physicochemical, thermal, structural, stem-cell-regenerative, and skin-cell-protective effects, in comparison to commercial collagen peptides. The acid-soluble (ASC) and pepsin-soluble (PSC) collagens exhibited three distinct bands on SDS-PAGE, namely α (α1 and α2), β, and γ chains, confirming a type I pattern. The thermal profiles obtained from TG and DSC analyses confirmed the denaturation of PSC and ASC at temperatures ranging from 51.94 to 56.4 °C and from 52.07 to 56.53 °C, respectively. The purified collagen peptides were analyzed using SDS-PAGE and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, revealing a mass range of 900-15,000 Da. Furthermore, the de novo peptide sequence analysis confirmed the presence of the Gly-X-Y repeating sequence in collagen peptides. Collagen peptide treatments significantly enhanced HFF-1 cell proliferation and migration compared to the control group. ELISA results confirmed the potential interactions between collagen peptides and HFF-1 cells through α2β1, α10β1, and α11β1 integrin receptors. Notably, collagen peptide treatment effectively restored the proliferation of HFF-1 cells damaged by H2O2. Consequently, the advantageous characteristics of squid skin collagen peptides highlight their promising role in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Corneal blindness is a worldwide major cause of vision loss, and corneal transplantation remains to be the most effective way to restore the vision. However, often there is a shortage of the donor corneas for transplantation. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a novel tissue-engineered corneal substitute. The present study envisaged the development of a novel and efficient method to prepare the corneal stromal equivalent from the marine biomaterials-squid. A chemical method was employed to decellularize the squid mantle scaffold to create a cell-free tissue substitute using 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution. Subsequently, a novel clearing method, namely clear, unobstructed brain imaging cocktails (CUBIC) method was used to transparent it. Decellularized squid mantle scaffold (DSMS) has high decellularization efficiency, is rich in essential amino acids, and maintains the regular fiber alignment. In vitro experiments showed that the soaking solution of DSMS was non-toxic to human corneal epithelium cells. DSMS exhibited a good biocompatibility in the rat muscle by undergoing a complete degradation, and promoted the growth of the muscle. In addition, the DSMS showed a good compatibility with the corneal stroma in the rabbit inter-corneal implantation model, and promoted the regeneration of the corneal stroma without any evident rejection. Our results indicate that the squid mantle can be a potential new type of tissue-engineered corneal stroma material with a promising clinical application.

Abstract
Acid-solubilized (ASC) and pepsin-solubilized collagen (PSC) extracted at 4 °C (ASC-4 and PSC-4), 12 °C (ASC-12 and PSC-12), and 20 °C (ASC-20 and PSC-20) from the skin of farmed pufferfish (Takifugu obscurus) was characterized by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and fibril-forming tests. The results indicate that extraction at 12 °C can effectively improve the extraction efficiency of natural collagen compared with extraction at 4 °C. However, extraction at 20 °C results in a decrease in molecular integrity, thus, inducing the resultant collagen to degrade or even lose fibril-forming ability. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images revealed that ASC-4, PSC-4, ASC-12, and PSC-12 can assemble into fibrils with D-periodicities, and ASC-20 associated into molecular aggregates alongside partial D-banded fibrils, while no well-defined fibrils were observed in PSC-20. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis confirmed the well-defined fibril morphologies of ASC-4, PSC-4, ASC-12, and PSC-12 with imino acid contents between 190.0 and 197.8 residues/1000 residues. The denaturation temperature of ASC-4, PSC-4, ASC-12 and PSC-12 was 30.0, 27.6, 25.9 and 22.7 °C, respectively. This study indicates that ASC and PSC extracted at 4 °C and 12 °C could be alternatives to terrestrial collagens for industrial applications.

Rheological Method for Determining the Molecular Weight of Collagen Gels by Using a Machine Learning Technique. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14173683. [PMID: 36080758 PMCID: PMC9460402 DOI: 10.3390/polym14173683] [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: 07/30/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 08/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
This article presents, for the first time, the results of applying the rheological technique to measure the molecular weights (Mw) and their distributions (MwD) of highly hierarchical biomolecules, such as non-hydrolyzed collagen gels. Due to the high viscosity of the studied gels, the effect of the concentrations on the rheological tests was investigated. In addition, because these materials are highly sensitive to denaturation and degradation under mechanical stress and temperatures close to 40 °C, when frequency sweeps were applied, a mathematical adjustment of the data by machine learning techniques (artificial intelligence tools) was designed and implemented. Using the proposed method, collagen fibers of Mw close to 600 kDa were identified. To validate the proposed method, lower Mw species were obtained and characterized by both the proposed rheological method and traditional measurement techniques, such as chromatography and electrophoresis. The results of the tests confirmed the validity of the proposed method. It is a simple technique for obtaining more microstructural information on these biomolecules and, in turn, facilitating the design of new structural biomaterials with greater added value.

Abstract
Foods are complex systems due to their biological origin. Biological materials are soft matter hierarchically structured on all scales from molecules to tissues. The structure reflects the biological constraints of the organism and the function of the tissue. The structural properties influence the texture and hence the mouthfeel of foods prepared from the tissue, and the presence of flavour compounds is similarly determined by biological function. Cephalopods, such as squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses, are notoriously known for having challenging texture due to their muscles being muscular hydrostats with highly cross-linked collagen. Similar with other marine animals such as fish and crustaceans, cephalopods are rich in certain compounds such as free amino acids and free 5′-ribonucleotides that together elicit umami taste. Scientific investigations of culinary applications of cephalopods as foods must therefore involve mechanical studies (texture analysis), physicochemical measurements of thermodynamic properties (protein denaturation), as well as chemical analysis (taste and aroma compounds). The combination of such basic science investigations of food as a soft material along with an exploration of the gastronomic potential has been termed gastrophysics. In this review paper, we reviewed available gastrophysical studies of cephalopod structure, texture, and taste both as raw, soft material and in certain preparations.

Abstract
Poly[n]catenanes are a class of polymers that are composed entirely of interlocked rings. One synthetic route to these polymers involves the formation of a metallosupramolecular polymer (MSP) that consists of alternating units of macrocyclic and linear thread components. Ring closure of the thread components has been shown to yield a mixture of cyclic, linear, and branched poly[n]catenanes. Reported herein are investigations into this synthetic methodology, with a focus on a more detailed understanding of the crude product distribution and how the concentration of the MSP during the ring closing reaction impacts the resulting poly[n]catenanes. In addition to a better understanding of the molecular products obtained in these reactions, the results show that the concentration of the reaction can be used to tune the size and type of poly[n]catenanes accessed. At low concentrations the interlocked product distribution is limited to primarily oligomeric and small cyclic catenanes . However, the same reaction at increased concentration can yield branched poly[n]catenanes with an ca. 21 kg mol-1, with evidence of structures containing as many as 640 interlocked rings (1000 kg mol-1).

Abstract
Although collagen type I is extensively used in biomedicine, no study to-date has assessed how the properties of the produced scaffolds are affected as a function of species, gender and tissue from which the collagen was extracted. Herein, we extracted and characterised collagen from porcine and bovine, male and female and skin and tendon tissues and we subsequently fabricated and assessed the structural, biophysical, biochemical and biological properties of collagen sponges. All collagen preparations were of similar purity and free-amine content (p > 0.05). In general, the porcine groups yielded more collagen; had higher (p < 0.05) denaturation temperature and resistance to enzymatic degradation; and lower (p < 0.05) swelling ratio and compression stress and modulus than the bovine groups of the same gender and tissue. All collagen preparations supported growth of human dermal fibroblasts and exhibited similar biological response to human THP-1 monocytes. These results further illustrate the need for standardisation of collagen preparations for the development of reproducible collagen-based devices. Assessment of the physicochemical and biological properties of collagen sponges as a function of animal species (bovine versus porcine), gender (male versus female) and tissue (skin versus tendon).

Abstract
Tissue engineering is focusing research effort on search for new biomaterials that might be applied to create artificial urinary conduit. Nevertheless, the demanding biomechanical characteristics necessary for proper conduit function is difficult to be replicated. In this study, we are introducing novel marine biomaterial obtained by decellularization of squid mantle derived from Loligo vulgaris. Squid mantles underwent decellularization according to developed dynamic flow two-staged procedure. Efficacy of the method was confirmed by computational dynamic flow analysis. Subsequently Decellularized Squid Mantle (DSM) underwent extensive histological analysis and mechanical evaluation. Based on gained biomechanical data the computational modelling using finite element method was utilized to simulate behavior of DSM used as a urinary conduit. Taking into account potential application in reconstructive urology, the DSM was then evaluated as a scaffold for urothelial and smooth muscle cells derived from porcine urinary bladder. Conducted analysis showed that DSM created favorable environment for cells growth. In addition, due to polarized structure and natural external polysaccharide layer, it protected seeded cells from urine.

Abstract
Collagen plays an important role in the formation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and development/migration of cells and tissues. Here we report the preparation of collagen and collagen hydrogel from the skin of tilapia and an evaluation of their potential as a wound dressing for the treatment of refractory wounds. The acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) were extracted and characterized using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), circular dichroism (CD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. Both ASC and PSC belong to type I collagen and have a complete triple helix structure, but PSC shows lower molecular weight and thermal stability, and has the inherent low antigenicity. Therefore, PSC was selected to prepare biomedical hydrogels using its self-aggregating properties. Rheological characterization showed that the mechanical strength of the hydrogels increased as the PSC content increased. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis indicated that hydrogels could form a regular network structure at a suitable PSC content. Cytotoxicity experiments confirmed that hydrogels with different PSC content showed no significant toxicity to fibroblasts. Skin repair experiments and pathological analysis showed that the collagen hydrogels wound dressing could significantly accelerate the healing of deep second-degree burn wounds and the generation of new skin appendages, which can be used for treatment of various refractory wounds.

Abstract
Abstract
The effects of ultrasound power on extraction kinetic model, and physicochemical and structural characteristics of collagen from chicken lung were studied. Ultrasound power caused a significant increase in extraction rate and equilibrium concentration, with the maximum extraction yield (31.25%) at 150 W. The experimental data were consistent with the predicted ones in this empirical equation, in which the percentage error differences was 0.026–4.159%. Besides, ultrasound treatment did not affect their triple-helical structure. The thermal stability of pepsin-soluble collagen by ultrasound pre-treatment (UPSC) was higher, due to the higher imino acid content (20.76%). UPSC also exhibited better solubility and fibril forming capacity. Overall, the kinetic model of UPSC from chicken lung could serve the purpose of obtaining collagen, which displayed a potential alternative source to mammal collagens for application in food, biomaterials and biomedical fields.

Denaturation temperature (Td) for all the collagens was found to be 25.5–29.5 °C, which was lower than that of calf skin collagen (35.9 °C). Electrophoretic patterns indicated all four samples were type I collagen with molecular form of (α1)2α2. FTIR spectra confirmed the extracted collagens had a triple-helical structure, and that the degree of hydrogen bonding in ASC was higher than PSC. All the extracted collagens could aggregate into fibrils with D-periodicity. The fibril formation rate of ASC-RP and PSC-RP was slightly higher than ASC-TP and PSC-TP. Turbidity analysis revealed an increase in fibril formation rate when adding a low concentration of NaCl (less than 300 mM). The fibril formation ability was suppressed with further increasing of NaCl concentration, as illustrated by a reduction in the turbidity and formation degree. SEM analysis confirmed the well-formed interwoven structure of collagen fibrils after 24 h of incubation. Summarizing the experimental results suggested that the extracted collagens from the skin of river puffer and tiger puffer could be considered a viable substitute to mammalian-derived collagens for further use in biomaterial applications.

Abstract
Collagen is one of the most widely used biomaterials, not only due its biocompatibility, biodegradability and weak antigenic potential, but also due to its role in the structure and function of tissues. Searching for alternative collagen sources, the aim of this study was to extract collagen from the skin of codfish, previously obtained as a by-product of fish industrial plants, and characterize it regarding its use as a biomaterial for biomedical application, according to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Guidelines. Collagen type I with a high degree of purity was obtained through acid-extraction, as confirmed by colorimetric assays, SDS-PAGE and amino acid composition. Thermal analysis revealed a denaturing temperature around 16 °C. Moreover, collagen showed a concentration-dependent effect in metabolism and on cell adhesion of lung fibroblast MRC-5 cells. In conclusion, this study shows that collagen can be obtained from marine-origin sources, while preserving its bioactivity, supporting its use in biomedical applications.

J Tissue Eng Regen Med 2017; 12:e1131-e1142. [PMID: 28500666 DOI: 10.1002/term.2448] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2016] [Revised: 03/07/2017] [Accepted: 05/04/2017] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
In this study, bioactive hydroxyapatite (HAP)-based bioceramics starting from cuttlefish bone powders have been prepared and characterized. In particular, fragmented cuttlefish bone was co-sintered with 30 wt% of Bioglass® -45S5 to synthesize HAP-based powders with enhanced mechanical properties and bioactivity. Commercial synthetic HAP was treated following the same procedure and used as a reference. The structure and composition of the bioceramics formulations were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. After the thermal treatment of cuttlefish bone powder added with 30 wt% Bioglass, new phases with compositions of sodium calcium phosphate [Na3 Ca6 (PO4 )5 ], β-tricalcium phosphate [Ca3 (PO4 )] and amorphous silica were detected. In vitro cell culture studies were performed by evaluating proliferation, metabolic activity and differentiation of human osteoblast-like cells (MG63). Scaffolds made with cuttlefish bone powder exhibited increased apatite deposition, alkaline phosphatase activity and cell proliferation compared with commercial synthetic HAP. In addition, the ceramic compositions obtained after the combination with Bioglass® further enhanced the metabolic activity of MG63 cell and promoted the formation of a well-developed apatite layer after 7 days of incubation in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium.
