Abstract
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is one of the most frequent causes of low back pain. No treatment is currently available to delay the progression of IDD. Conservative treatment or surgical interventions is only used to target the symptoms of IDD rather than treat the underlying cause. Currently, numerous potential therapeutic strategies are available, including molecular therapy, gene therapy, and cell therapy. However, the hostile environment of degenerated discs is a major problem that has hindered the clinical applicability of such approaches. In this regard, the design of drugs using alternative delivery systems (macro-, micro-, and nano-sized particles) may resolve this problem. These can protect and deliver biomolecules along with helping to improve the therapeutic effect of drugs via concentrating, protecting, and prolonging their presence in the degenerated disc. This review summarizes the research progress of diagnosis and the current options for treating IDD.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 269:131873. [PMID: 38677699 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131873] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/15/2023] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
Here, we developed a nano-TiO2-nisin-modified chitosan composite packaging film and investigated its properties and antibacterial activity, as well as its effect on chilled pork preservation time. The results indicated that the preservation time of chilled pork coated with a nano-TiO2-nisin-modified chitosan film (including 0.7 g/L nano-TiO2, irradiated with ultraviolet light for 40 min, and dried for 6 h) followed by modified atmosphere packaging (50% CO2 + 50% N2) increased from 7 to 20 days at 4 °C. Both nano-TiO2 and nisin enhanced the mechanical strength of the chitosan film, and nisin promoted nano-TiO2 dispersion and compatibility in chitosan. Treatment with 0.4 g/L nano-TiO2 for 60 min considerably inhibited spoilage bacteria, particularly Acinetobacter johnnii XBB1 (A. johnnii XBB1). As nano-TiO2 concentration and photocatalytic time increased, K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ leakage in A. johnnii XBB1 increased but Na+/K+-ATPase and Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase activities decreased. In A. johnnii XBB1, TiO2 significantly downregulated the expression of putrefaction-related genes such as cysM and inhibited cell self-regulation and membrane wall system repair. Therefore, our nano-TiO2-nisin-modified chitosan film could extend the shelf life without the addition of any chemical preservatives, demonstrating great potential for application in food preservation.

Abstract
Severe loss of bone mass may require grafting, and, among the alternatives available, there are natural biomaterials that can act as scaffolds for the cell growth necessary for tissue regeneration. Collagen and elastin polymers are a good alternative due to their biomimetic properties of bone tissue, and their characteristics can be improved with the addition of polysaccharides such as chitosan and bioactive compounds such as jatoba resin and pomegranate extract due to their antigenic actions. The aim of this experimental protocol was to evaluate bone neoformation in experimentally made defects in the mandible of rats using polymeric scaffolds with plant extracts added. Thirty rats were divided into group 1, with a mandibular defect filled with a clot from the lesion and no graft implant (G1-C, n = 10); group 2, filled with collagen/chitosan/jatoba resin scaffolds (G2-CCJ, n = 10); and group 3, with collagen/nanohydroxyapatite/elastin/pomegranate extract scaffolds (G3-CHER, n = 10). Six weeks after surgery, the animals were euthanized and samples from the surgical areas were submitted to macroscopic, radiological, histological, and morphometric analysis of the mandibular lesion repair process. The results showed no inflammatory infiltrates in the surgical area, indicating good acceptance of the scaffolds in the microenvironment of the host area. In the control group (G1), there was a predominance of reactive connective tissue, while in the grafted groups (G2 and G3), there was bone formation from the margins of the lesion, but it was still insufficient for total bone repair of the defect within the experimental period standardized in this study. The histomorphometric analysis showed that the mean percentage of bone volume formed in the surgical area of groups G1, G2, and G3 was 17.17 ± 2.68, 27.45 ± 1.65, and 34.07 ± 0.64 (mean ± standard deviation), respectively. It can be concluded that these scaffolds with plant extracts added can be a viable alternative for bone repair, as they are easily manipulated, have a low production cost, and stimulate the formation of new bone by osteoconduction.

Abstract
Hemostatic materials are of great significance for rapid control of bleeding, especially in military trauma and traffic accidents. Chitosan (CS) hemostatic sponges have been widely concerned and studied due to their excellent biocompatibility. However, the hemostatic performance of pure chitosan sponges is poor due to the shortcoming of strong rigidity. In this study, CS and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC) were combined to develop a safe and effective hemostatic composite sponges (CS/HPMC) for hemorrhage control by a simple mixed-lyophilization strategy. The CS/HPMC exhibited excellent flexibility (the flexibility was 74% higher than that of pure CS sponges). Due to the high porosity and procoagulant chemical structure of the CS/HPMC, it exhibited rapid hemostatic ability in vitro (BCI was shortened by 50% than that of pure CS sponges). The good biocompatibility of the obtained CS/HPMC was confirmed via cytotoxicity, hemocompatibility and skin irritation tests. The CS/HPMC can induced the erythrocyte and platelets adhesion, resulting in significant coagulation acceleration. The CS/HPMC had excellent performance in vivo assessments with shortest clotting time (40 s) and minimal blood loss (166 mg). All above results proved that the CS/HPMC had great potential to be a safe and rapid hemostatic material.

Abstract
Silica-based nanoparticles have found application in the development of biocomposites involving reconstituted collagen in tissue engineering and wound healing, and leather modification, specifically targeting collagen fibers. However, a comprehensive investigation into the interaction between collagen-silica nanoparticles and different forms of collagen using biophysical methods remains unexplored. In this study, we examined the interaction between silica (SiO2) nanoparticles and collagen in its fiber, microfibril, and monomer forms through high-resolution scanning electron microscopy, circular dichroism, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, fluorescence analysis, zeta potential measurements, and turbidity assays. Our results reveal that SiO2 nanoparticles exhibited a non-specific attraction towards collagen fibers without disrupting their structural integrity. Interestingly, SiO2 nanoparticles influenced the process of microfibrillation, resulting in heterogeneous fibril diameters while maintaining the natural D-periodicity. This finding is significant, as fibril size variations can impact the properties of collagen composites. Notably, the triple helical structure of collagen in its monomer form remained unaffected in the presence of SiO2 nanoparticles, indicating that the nanoparticles did not disrupt the electrostatic interactions that stabilize the triple helix. Additionally, the increased stability of SiO2 nanoparticles in the presence of collagen confirmed their interaction. These findings provide a promising avenue for the development of SiO2-based nanoparticles to enhance the stability of collagen fibers and control fiber sizes for biomaterial preparation. Moreover, this study advances the potential application of SiO2-based nanoparticles in leather tanning, an emerging field where nanoparticles can play a crucial role.

Abstract
The development of fast, safe and effective hemostatic materials is crucial for pre-hospital first aid. In this study, diatomite hemostatic granules (Dhp) were developed by rotating granulation method using silica sol as binder. During rotating granulation process, the Pre-Dhp were prepared by rolling snowball effect, in which nano-silica in silica sol uniformly distributed on the surface of diatomite and polymerized through hydrogen bond to produce strong adhesion. After high-temperature calcination, the hydrogen bond transformed to silica oxygen bond and the three-dimensional gel network formed by silica sol was destroyed to exposed the pores of diatomite. Dhp retained the porous structure of diatomite with hierarchical porous structure (from nano to micro scale). Dhp could quickly adsorb the tangible components in the blood, exhibited rapid hemostatic ability (clotting time was shortened by 43 % than that of control group), and good biocompatibility (hemolysis rate < 7 %, no cytotoxicity). Dhp residue was not found in the wound of rat tail amputation model, indicating that the adhesion of silica sol and high-temperature curing treatment enhanced the stability of Dhp and reduced the hidden danger of micro thrombosis caused by residual substances entering blood vessels. Our study proved that Dhp prepared by silica sol bonding and rotary granulation was excellent hemostatic material with non-toxic side effects and rapid coagulation promotion.

Abstract
The lack of vascularization in the white-red and white zone of the meniscus causes these zones of tissue to have low self-healing capacity in case of injury and accelerate osteoarthritis (OA). In this study, we have developed hybrid constructs using polycaprolactone (PCL) and decellularized meniscus extracellular matrix (DMECM) surface modified by gelatin (G), hyaluronic acid (HU) and selenium (Se) nanoparticles (PCL/DMECM/G/HU/Se), following by the cross-linking of the bio-polymeric surface. Material characterization has been performed on the fabricated scaffold using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, swelling and degradation analyses, and mechanical tests. In Vitro, investigations have been conducted by C28/I2 human chondrocyte culture into the scaffold and evaluated the cytotoxicity and cell/scaffold interaction. For the in vivo study, the scaffolds were transplanted into the defect sites of female New Zealand white rabbits. Good regeneration was observed after two months. We have concluded that the designed PCL/DMECM/G/HU construct can be a promising candidate as a meniscus tissue engineering scaffold to facilitate healing.

Abstract
Chitosan (CTS) and collagen (Coll) are natural biomaterials that have been extensively used in tissue engineering or wound healing applications, either separately or as composite materials. Most methods to fabricate CTS/Coll matrices employ chemical crosslinking to obtain solid and stable scaffolds with the necessary porosity and mechanical properties to facilitate regeneration. In this study, we comparatively assessed the physicochemical properties of 3D scaffolds loaded with a cross-linker, glyoxal. Using a scanning electron microscope, we evaluated the microstructure of resultant matrices and their mechanistic testing by the determination of the compressive modulus (Emod), the maximum force (Fmax), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy–Attenuated Total Reflectance (FTIR-ATR), and proliferation rate in vitro using human epidermal keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts cultured in presence of melatonin solution (10−5 M). We observed that enhanced content of collagen (50CTS/50Coll or 20CTS/80Coll compared to 80CTS/20Coll) significantly elevated the physicochemical capacities of resultant materials. Besides, presence of 5% glyoxal increased porosity, Emod and Fmax, compared to scaffolds without glyoxal. Finally, keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts cultured on subjected matrices in presence of melatonin revealed a prominently enhanced growth rate. This indicates that the combination of glyoxal and melatonin make it imperative to consider these materials as a promising approach for targeting skin tissue engineering or regenerative dermatology.

Abstract
The presence of pollutants in the water bodies deteriorate the water quality and make it unfit for use. From an environmental perspective, it is essential to develop new technologies for the wastewater treatment and recycling of dye contaminated water. The surface modified chitin and chitosan biopolymeric composites based adsorbents, have an important role in the toxic organic dyes from removal wastewater. The surface modification of biopolymers with various organics and inorganics produces more active sites at the surface of the adsorbent, which enhances dye and adsorbent interaction more reliable. Herein, the work brought in the thought of the application of various chitin and chitosan composites in wastewater remediation and suggested the versatility in composites for the development of rapid, selective and effective removal processes for the detoxification of a variety of organic dyes. It further emphasizes the existing obstruction and impending prediction for the deprivation of dyes via adsorption techniques.

Abstract
The collagen proteins family is sought-after in the pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food industries for various biotechnological applications. The most abundant sources of collagen are pigs and cows, but due to religious restrictions and possible disease transmission, they became less attractive. An alternative source can be found in marine invertebrates, specifically in sponges. Alas, two problems arise: (1). Growing sponges is complicated. (2). Sponge collagen has low heat tolerance, which can impose a problem for human biotechnological usage. To fill these gaps, we studied the collagen-abundant sponge Chondrosia reniformis. Two culture experiments were conducted: (1). A sea-based system examined the difference in growth rates of C. reniformis from different habitats, growing under natural seasonal conditions; (2). A land-based controlled system, which assessed the growth-rate of C. reniformis at different temperatures. The results reveal that C. reniformis from shallow habitats are growing larger and faster than individuals from colder, deeper habitats, and that the optimal temperature for C. reniformis growth is 25 °C. The results demonstrate that C. reniformis is highly fit for culture and can produce thermally stable collagen. Further research is needed to determine the best conditions for C. reniformis culture for collagen extract and other exciting materials for bioprospecting.

Abstract
In this work, two-component dialdehyde chitosan/hyaluronic acid scaffolds were developed and characterized. Dialdehyde chitosan was obtained by one-step synthesis with chitosan and sodium periodate. Three-dimensional scaffolds were prepared by the lyophilization method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to observe the chemical structure of scaffolds and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) imaging was done to assess the microstructure of resultant materials. Thermal analysis, mechanical properties measurements, density, porosity and water content measurements were used to characterize physicochemical properties of dialdehyde chitosan/hyaluronic acid 3D materials. Additionally, human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK), dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) and human melanoma cells (A375 and G-361) were used to evaluate cell viability in the presence of subjected scaffolds. It was found that scaffolds were characterized by a porous structure with interconnected pores. The scaffold composition has an influence on physicochemical properties, such as mechanical strength, thermal resistance, porosity and water content. There were no significant differences between cell viability proliferation of all scaffolds, and this observation was visible for all subjected cell lines.

Abstract
Wound infections are still problematic in many cases and demand new alternatives for current treatment strategies. In recent years, biomaterials-based wound dressings have received much attention due to their potentials and many studies have been performed based on them. Accordingly, in this study, we fabricated and optimized an antibacterial chitosan/silk fibroin (CS/SF) electrospun nanofiber bilayer containing different concentrations of a cationic antimicrobial peptide (AMP) for wound dressing applications. The fabricated CS/SF nanofiber was fully characterized and compared to the electrospun silk fibroin and electrospun chitosan alone in vitro. Then, the release rate of different concentrations of peptide (16, 32, and 64 µg/ml) from peptide-loaded CS/SF nanofiber was investigated. Finally, based on cytotoxic activity, the antibacterial activity of scaffolds containing 16 and 32 µg/ml of the peptide was evaluated against standard and multi-drug resistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from burn patients. The peptide-loaded CS/SF nanofiber displayed appropriate mechanical properties, high water uptake, suitable biodegradation rate, a controlled release without cytotoxicity on Hu02 human foreskin fibroblast cells at the 16 and 32 µg/ml concentrations of peptide. The optimized CS/SF containing 32 μg/ml peptide showed strong antibacterial activity against all experimental strains from standard to resistance. The results showed that the fabricated antimicrobial nanofiber has the potential to be applied as a wound dressing for infected wound healing, although further studies are needed in vivo.

Abstract
Rapid control of bleeding is of great significance in military trauma and traffic accidents. In this study, alkylated chitosan (AC) and diatom biosilica (DB) were combined to develop a safe and effective hemostatic composite sponge (AC-DB sponge) for hemorrhage control. Due to the procoagulant chemical structure of AC-DB sponge, it exhibited rapid hemostatic ability in vitro (clotting time was shortened by 78% than that of control group), with favorable biocompatibility (hemolysis ratio < 5%, no cytotoxicity). The strong interface effect between AC-DB sponge and blood induced the erythrocyte and platelets activation, deformation and aggregation, intrinsic coagulation pathway activation, resulting in significant coagulation acceleration. AC-DB sponge had excellent performance in in vivo assessments with shortest clotting time (106.2 s) and minimal blood loss (328.5 mg). All above results proved that AC-DB sponge had great potential to be a safe and rapid hemostatic material.

Abstract
Herein, hazardous solid particulate waste collagenic fibers (SWCFs) of leather industries were incorporated into apple pomace pectin (APPN)-grafted-pentapolymer, i.e., APPN-g-[sodium 2-methylidenebutanedioate(SMBD)-co-N-((3-(isopropylamino)-3-oxopropoxy) methyl) butyramide (CM1)-co-N-(hydroxymethyl)prop-2-enamide (NHMPE)-co-N-(hydroxymethyl)-4-(N-isopropylbutyramido)butanamide (CM2)-co-N-(propan-2-yl)prop-2-enamide NPYPE)/ PENP1], i.e., APPN-g-PENP1/ PENP2, prepared via one-pot facile polymerization of APPN and synthetic monomers, i.e., SMBD, NHMPE, and NPYPE, in aqueous medium, to fabricate an optimum multifunctional hybrid biocomposite adsorbent/ HCOM3. In PENP1, PENP2, and HCOM3, fourth/ CM1 and fifth/ CM2 multifunctional comonomers were anchored in situ. The structures of PENP1, PENP2, HCOM3, CM1, CM2, and metal-ion adsorbed HCOM3; APPN-grafting; SWCF incorporation; and surface properties were analyzed through NMR, XPS, FTIR, XRD, and SEM. The elevated adsorption efficiencies (AEs), reusability, thermostability, swelling, network durability, and crosslink density of HCOM3 were attributed to variable functionalities of SWCF/ APPN, explored by DLS and TGA, swelling, network, and thermodynamic parameters. Compared to SWCF, APPN, PENP1, and PENP2, the elevated AEs and reusability compelled HCOM3 as more suitable for scalable waste management. The maximum AEs, i.e., 171.79, 180.47, and 177.27 mg g-1, for Ti(IV), As(V), and V(V) at pHop = 7.0, 3.0, and 5.0, respectively, within 5-100 mg L-1 and at 298 K for 25 mg HCOM3 deteriorated during ternary adsorption by the antagonistic effects.

Macroporous scaffold surface modified with biological macromolecules and piroxicam-loaded gelatin nanofibers toward meniscus cartilage repair. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 183:1327-1345.

Abstract
Meniscus cartilage has poor self-healing capacity in the inner zone and its damage leads to articular cartilage degeneration. Here we have developed hybrid constructs using polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyurethane (PU) surface modified by gelatin (G), chitosan (C), and hyaluronic acid (H) biomacromolecules and piroxicam-loaded gelatin nanofibers (PCL/PU/GCH/P). The surface of constructs was crosslinked using EDC and NHS. The scaffolds were investigated by SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, swelling test, degradation rate, mechanical tests, and in vitro piroxicam release assay. Furthermore, the cell-seeded scaffolds were evaluated by SEM, viability assay, dapi staining, cell migration, proliferation, and gene expression of chondrocytes within these scaffolds. Finally, the animal study was performed in a rabbit model. Chondrocyte and rabbit adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) from the infrapatellar fat pad (Hoffa's fat pad) were used. Swelling and degradation rate were increased in the modified scaffolds. Tensile and compressive Young's modulus also were near to human native meniscus tissue. The highest expression level of chondrocyte marker genes was observed for the PCL/PU/GCH scaffold. A significant regeneration was obtained in rabbits treated with ASCs-loaded PCL/PU/GCH/P scaffold after 3 months. The surface-modified scaffolds with or without ASCs could successfully accelerate meniscus regeneration and exhibit potential application in meniscus tissue engineering.

Abstract
Plastics have found widespread use in the fields of cosmetic, engineering, and medical sciences due to their wide-ranging mechanical and physical properties, as well as suitability in biomedical applications. However, in the light of the environmental cost of further upscaling current methods of synthesizing many plastics, work has recently focused on the manufacture of these polymers using biological methods (often bacterial fermentation), which brings with them the advantages of both low temperature synthesis and a reduced reliance on potentially toxic and non-eco-friendly compounds. This can be seen as a boon in the biomaterials industry, where there is a need for highly bespoke, biocompatible, processable polymers with unique biological properties, for the regeneration and replacement of a large number of tissue types, following disease. However, barriers still remain to the mass-production of some of these polymers, necessitating new research. This review attempts a critical analysis of the contemporary literature concerning the use of a number of bacteria-derived polymers in the context of biomedical applications, including the biosynthetic pathways and organisms involved, as well as the challenges surrounding their mass production. This review will also consider the unique properties of these bacteria-derived polymers, contributing to bioactivity, including antibacterial properties, oxygen permittivity, and properties pertaining to cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Finally, the review will select notable examples in literature to indicate future directions, should the aforementioned barriers be addressed, as well as improvements to current bacterial fermentation methods that could help to address these barriers.

Abstract
Replacement of peripheral nerve autografts with tissue engineered nerve grafts will potentially resolve the lack of nerve tissue especially in patients with severe concomitant soft tissue injuries. This study attempted to fabricate a tissue engineered nerve graft composed of electrospun PCL conduit filled with collagen-hyaluronic acid (COL-HA) sponge with different COL-HA weight ratios including 100:0, 98:2, 95:5 and 90:10. The effect of HA addition on the sponge porosity, mechanical properties, water absorption and degradation rate was assessed. A good cohesion between the electrospun PCL nanofibers and COL-HA sponges were seen in all sponges with different HA contents. Mechanical properties of PCL nanofibrous layer were similar to the rat sciatic nerve; the ultimate tensile strength was 2.23 ± 0.35 MPa at the elongation of 35%. Additionally, Schwann cell proliferation and morphology on three dimensional (3D) composite scaffold were evaluated by using MTT and SEM assays, respectively. Rising the HA content resulted in higher water absorption as well as greater pore size and porosity, while a decrease in Schwann cell proliferation compared to pure collagen sponge, although reduction in cell proliferation was not statistically significant. The lower Schwann cell proliferation on the COL-HA was attributed to the greater degradation rate and pore size of the COL-HA sponges. Also, dorsal root ganglion assay showed that the engineered 3D construct significantly increases axon growth. Taken together, these results suggest that the fabricated 3D composite scaffold provide a permissive environment for Schwann cells proliferation and maturation and can encourage axon growth.

Abstract
Blending of different biopolymers, e.g., collagen, chitosan, silk fibroin and cross-linking modifications of these mixtures can lead to new materials with improved physico-chemical properties, compared to single-component scaffolds. Three-dimensional scaffolds based on three-component mixtures of silk fibroin, collagen and chitosan, chemically cross-linked, were prepared and their physico-chemical and biological properties were evaluated. A mixture of EDC (N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N’-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride) and NHS (N-hydroxysuccinimide) was used as a cross-linking agent. FTIR was used to observe the position of the peaks characteristic for collagen, chitosan and silk fibroin. The following properties depending on the scaffold structure were studied: swelling behavior, liquid uptake, moisture content, porosity, density, and mechanical parameters. Scanning Electron Microscopy imaging was performed. Additionally, the biological properties of these materials were assessed, by metabolic activity assay. The results showed that the three-component mixtures, cross-linked by EDC/NHS and prepared by lyophilization method, presented porous structures. They were characterized by a high swelling degree. The composition of scaffolds has an influence on mechanical properties. All of the studied materials were cytocompatible with MG-63 osteoblast-like cells.

Abstract
Due to their unique properties-the are biocompatible, easily accessible, and inexpensive with programmable properties-biopolymers are used in pharmaceutical and biomedical research, as well as in cosmetics and food. Collagen is one of the most-used biomaterials in biomedicine, being the most abundant protein in animals with a triple helices structure, biocompatible, biomimetic, biodegradable, and hemostatic. Its disadvantages are its poor mechanical and thermal properties and enzymatic degradation. In order to solve this problem and to use its benefits, collagen can be used blended with other biomaterials such as alginate, chitosan, and cellulose. The purpose of this review article is to offer a brief paper with updated information on blended collagen-based formulations and their potential application in biomedicine.

Background:
Any sort of wound injury leads to skin integrity and further leads to wound formation.
Millions of deaths are reported every year, which contributes to an economical hamper world widely, this accounts
for 10% of death rate that insight into various diseases.
Current Methodology:
Rapid wound healing plays an important role in effective health care. Wound healing is a
multi-factorial physiological process, which helps in the growth of new tissue to render the body with the imperative
barrier from the external environment. The complexity of this phenomenon makes it prone to several abnormalities.

highly defined programmed phases, such as hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling and these
phases occur in the proper progression. An overview, types, and classification of wounds along with the stages of
wound healing and various factors affecting wound healing have been discussed systematically. Various biopolymers
are reported for developing nanofibers and microfibers in wound healing, which can be used as a therapeutic
drug delivery for wound healing applications. Biopolymers are relevant for biomedical purposes owing to
biodegradability, biocompatibility, and non- toxicity. Biopolymers such as polysaccharides, proteins and various
gums are used for wound healing applications. Patents and future perspectives have been given in the concluding
part of the manuscript. Overall, applications of biopolymers in the development of fibers and their applications in
wound healing are gaining interest in researchers to develop modified biopolymers and tunable delivery systems
for effective management and care of different types of wounds.

Abstract
In this study, three-dimensional materials based on blends of silk fibroin (SF), collagen (Coll), and chitosan (CTS) cross-linked by glyoxal solution were prepared and the properties of the new materials were studied. The structure of the composites and the interactions between scaffold components were studied using FTIR spectroscopy. The microstructure was observed using a scanning electron microscope. The following properties of the materials were measured: density and porosity, moisture content, and swelling degree. Mechanical properties of the 3D materials under compression were studied. Additionally, the metabolic activity of MG-63 osteoblast-like cells on materials was examined. It was found that the materials were characterized by a high swelling degree (up to 3000% after 1 h of immersion) and good porosity (in the range of 80–90%), which can be suitable for tissue engineering applications. None of the materials showed cytotoxicity toward MG-63 cells.

Modification of Collagen Properties with Ferulic Acid. MATERIALS 2020; 13:ma13153419.

Abstract
Collagen materials are widely used in biomedicine and in cosmetics. However, their properties require improvement for several reasons. In this work, collagen solution as well as collagen films were modified by the addition of ferulic acid (FA). Thin collagen films containing FA were obtained by solvent evaporation. The properties of collagen solution have been studied by steady shear tests. The structure and surface properties of collagen thin films were studied. It was found that for collagen solution with 5% addition of FA, the apparent viscosity was the highest, whereas the collagen solutions with other additions of FA (1%, 2%, and 10%), no significant difference in the apparent viscosity was observed. Thin films prepared from collagen with 1 and 2% FA addition were homogeneous, whereas films with 5% and 10% FA showed irregularity in the surface properties. Mechanical properties, such as maximum tensile strength and elongation at break, were significantly higher for films with 10% FA than for films with smaller amount of FA. Young modulus was similar for films with 1% and 10% FA addition, but bigger than for 2% and 5% of FA in collagen films. The cross-linking of collagen with ferulic acid meant that prepared thin films were elastic with better mechanical properties than collagen films.

Abstract
Recently, injectable hydrogels have shown great potential in cell therapy and drug delivery. They can easily fill in any irregular-shaped defects and remain in desired positions after implantation using minimally invasive strategies. Here, we developed hydrogels prepared from tilapia skin collagen and chitosan (HCC). The residual mass rate of HCC was affected by the pH at the time of preparation, which was 29.1 % at pH 7 in 36 h. By comparison, the residual mass ratios of HCC at pH values of 6 and 5 were only approximately 8.4 % and 0, respectively. In addition, the stability of HCC was also affected by the concentration of these two components. HCC10 catalyzed by 10 mg mL-1 tilapia skin collagen and 10 mg mL-1 chitosan was more stable than HCC5 catalyzed by 5 mg mL-1 tilapia skin collagen and 10 mg mL-1 chitosan; therefore, we studied that ability of HCC10 to deliver two model nanobodies: 2D5 and KPU. As the concentration of nanobodies increased, the cumulative release rate of 2D5 decreased, and the release rate of KPU increased. Meanwhile, the cumulative release rate of 2D5 was the highest (68.3 %) at pH 5.5, followed by pH 6.8 (56.4 %) and 7.4 (28.4 %). However, the cumulative release rates of KPU were similar at pH 5.5 (45.1 %), 6.8 (46.5 %), and 7.4 (44.9 %). HCC is biodegradable, and can facilitate the release nanobodies; thus, HCC could be developed into an intelligent responsive tumor treatment matrix for use in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Biopolymer composites based on two types of chitosan (chitosan succinate and low-molecular weight chitosan) with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were created by laser printing. SWCNT have good dispersibility in chitosan solutions and therefore, can form relatively homogeneous films that was shown in scanning electron microscopy images. For the studies film composites were formed under the action of laser radiation on aqueous dispersion media. Study of the nonlinear optical process during the interaction of laser radiation with a disperse media has shown that low-molecular chitosan has a large nonlinear absorption coefficient of 17 cm/GW, while the addition of SWCNT lead to a significant increase up to 902 cm/GW. The threshold intensity for these samples was 5.5 MW/cm2 with nanotubes. If intensity exceeds the threshold value, nonlinear effects occur, which, in turn, lead to the transformation of a liquid into a solid phase. Characterization of films by FTIR and Raman spectroscopy indicated arising molecular interactions between chitosan and SWCNT detected as a small frequency shift and a change in the shape of radial breathing mode (RBM). The results indicate the possibility using aqueous dispersion media based on chitosan and SWCNT to create three-dimensional films and scaffolds for tissue engineering by laser printing.

Abstract
In this study, three-dimensional (3D) biopolymeric scaffolds made from collagen, silk fibroin and chitosan were successfully prepared by the freeze drying method. Dialdehyde starch (DAS) was used as a cross-linking agent for the materials. The properties of the materials were studied using density and porosity measurements, scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging, swelling and moisture content measurements. Additionally, cytocompatibility of the materials in contact with MG-63 osteoblast-like cells was tested by live/dead staining and resazurin reduction assay on days 1, 3 and 7. It was found that new 3D materials made from collagen/silk fibroin/chitosan binary or ternary mixtures are hydrophilic with a high swelling ability (swelling rate in the range of 1680–1900%). Cross-linking of such biopolymeric materials with DAS increased swelling rate up to about 2100%, reduced porosity from 96–97% to 91–93%, and also decreased density and moisture content of the materials. Interestingly, presence of DAS did not influence the microstructure of the scaffolds as compared to non-cross-linked samples as shown by SEM. All the tested samples were found to be cytocompatible and supported adhesion and growth of MG-63 cells as shown by live–dead staining and metabolic activity test.

Abstract
In this work thin film made from the mixture of collagen, hyaluronic acid and chitosan were obtained during solvent evaporation method. The mixtures of biopolymers were modified by dialdehyde starch, which was used as a crosslinking agent. The influence of crosslinking agent on the physico-chemical properties of polymeric matrices was evaluated. The interactions between functional groups of polymers were evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for both unmodified and modified samples. Mechanical properties of film were tested in dry condition using a mechanical testing machine. Morphology of the surface was studied by Atomic Force Microscopy and the roughness parameters were analyzed. Moreover, surface free energy and its polar and dispersive components were evaluated by contact angle measurements. It was found that the addition of dialdehyde starch modified all tested parameters of the studied films. Samples became less elastic and more resist for rupture. Moreover, samples became less rough after crosslinking process and surface free energy increased. Thin film made from the mixture of collagen, hyaluronic acid and chitosan crosslinked with dialdehyde starch can be applied in medicine and in cosmetics.

Abstract
Attention has recently increased in the application of electrospun fibers because of their putative capability to create nanoscale platforms toward tissue engineering. To some extent, electrospun fibers are applicable to the extracellular matrix by providing a three-dimensional microenvironment in which cells could easily acquire definite functional shape and maintain the cell-to-cell connection. It is noteworthy to declare that placement in different electrospun substrates with appropriate physicochemical properties enables cells to promote their bioactivities, dynamics growth and differentiation, leading to suitable restorative effects. This review paper aims to highlight the application of biomaterials in engineered vascular grafts by using electrospun nanofibers to promote angiogenesis and neovascularization.

Abstract
Collagen, chitosan and hyaluronic acid based multicomponent injectable and in situ gellating biomimetic hybrid materials for bone tissue engineering applications were prepared in one-step procedure. The bioactive phase in the form of surface-modified silica particles was introduced to the solutions of biopolymers and simultaneously crosslinked with genipin both the biopolymer matrix and dispersed particles at 37 °C. The novel approach presented here involved the use of silica particles which surfaces were priory functionalized with amino groups. That modification makes possible the covalent attachment of silica particles to the polymeric hydrogel network on crosslinking with genipin. That methodology is especially important as it makes possible to obtain the hybrid materials (biopolymer-silica particles) in which the problems related to the potential phase separation of mineral particles, hindering their in vivo application can be eliminated. The hybrids of various compositions were obtained and their physicochemical and biological properties were determined. The in vitro experiments performed under simulated body fluid conditions revealed that the amino-functionalized silica particles covalently attached to the biopolymeric network are still bioactive. Finally, the in vitro cell culture studies shown that the materials developed are biocompatible as they supported MG-63 cells adhesion, proliferation as well as Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) expression.

Abstract
In this study we explored the role of rosuvastatin calcium in skin regeneration as statins play important role in the field of tissue engineering. Chitosan hydrochloride was crosslinked with different weight ratios of collagen, β-glycerolphosphate and carboxymethyl cellulose to produce scaffolds by lyophilization technique. Subsequently, the fabricated scaffolds were examined for their morphology, water absorption capacity, water retention, friability and in-vitro drug release as well as in-vivo studies. The results revealed porous 3-D structured scaffolds with maximum water absorption values-ranging between 396 and 2993%. Scaffolds containing carboxymethyl cellulose revealed highest water absorption-values. In-vitro drug release results showed gradual drug release for 60 h with mean dissolution time-values (MDT) between 13 and 21 h. Combination of chitosan, collagen, carboxymethyl cellulose in weight ratio of 40:30:30, respectively achieved gradual disintegration of the scaffold in a simulating medium to an open wound after 4 days. This selected scaffold loaded with rosuvastatin revealed increase proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts compared to placebo scaffold. After 30 days of implantation of selected medicated scaffold loaded with/without mesenchymal stem cells and placebo scaffolds to induced wounds in Albino rats, enhanced skin regeneration and absence of scar formation for drug loaded scaffolds were observed. The histopathological study showed the advantage of stem cells-loaded scaffolds through the normal redistribution of collagen in the epidermal layer. In conclusion, rosuvastatin calcium and stem cells loaded in the tested scaffolds proved their potential effect in enhancing skin healing and regeneration.

Abstract
Scaffolds based on chitosan (CTS), collagen (Coll), and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) mixtures with nano-hydroxyapatite (HAp) were obtained with the use of the freeze-drying method. They were characterized by different analyses, e.g. SEM images and mechanical testing. Moreover, swelling behavior and biocompatibility tests were carried out. The results showed that the scaffolds based on the blends of chitosan, collagen, and glycosaminoglycans with hydroxyapatite are stable in aqueous environment. SEM images allowed the observation of a porous scaffolds structure with the pores size ~250 μm. The main purpose of the research was to detect the influence of hydroxyapatite addition on the glycosaminoglycans-enriched scaffolds properties. The physicochemical properties as swelling and mechanical parameters were tested. The scaffolds structure was observed by SEM. Moreover, the preliminary assessment of scaffolds suitability for cell growth, human osteosarcoma cell line SaOS-2 was used. The obtained results indicate that the addition of hydroxyapatite improves the mechanical parameters and cells biological response of the studied materials.

Abstract
Studies on synthesis, physico-chemical and biological properties of novel biomimetic materials, potentially useful as injectable hydrogels are presented. These materials are in situ prepared chemically crosslinked collagen/chitosan/hyaluronic acid-based hydrogels exhibiting potential for tissue regeneration. Optimization of hydrogels involved testing the effect of various concentration of crosslinking agent (genipin) as well as different ratios of biopolymers used on their properties. The changes in the content of hyaluronic acid and in the genipin concentration used have been shown to be crucial. Employing the highest concentration of crosslinking agent studied (20 mM) the hydrogels of compact structure, characterized by good mechanical properties and prolonged degradation profile can be obtained. Changing the HA content in sol mixture the hydrogel of various wettability; more or less hydrophilic when compared to pure collagen/chitosan hydrogels can be fabricated. The in vitro cell culture study has shown that the surface of the prepared materials ensures suitable biocompatibility. These hydrogels can support the proliferation and adhesion of MG-63 cell line as it was demonstrated using Alamar Blue assay and SEM observations. It is believed that the collagen/chitosan/hyaluronic acid hydrogels crosslinked with genipin are particularly promising materials for bone regeneration procedures, especially attractive for regeneration of small bone losses. This is the first paper in the litearature presenting results of studies on that type of biopolymeric injectable hydrogels chemically crosslinked with genipin.

Abstract
Owing to their good solubility and film-forming properties, phenolic acid-g-chitosan derivatives can be used for preservation of fruits and vegetables. However, the chemical synthesis used for the preparation of these derivatives poses a great challenge to food safety. In this study, a method involving horseradish peroxidase catalysis was used to prepare a gallic acid-g-chitosan derivative. The grafting mechanism was studied. Then, the derivative's ability to scavenge free radicals and its preserving application in cherry tomatoes were evaluated. The results indicated that the reaction for horseradish peroxidase catalysis occurred between the amino group of chitosan and the carboxyl group of gallic acid. After enzymatic grafting, the gallic acid-g-chitosan derivative possessed excellent antioxidant abilities in scavenging DPPH, hydroxyl, and superoxide anion radicals. When the derivative was used for the preservation of cherry tomatoes, the results showed that it could effectively protect the ascorbate-glutathione cycle and antioxidant enzyme system of cherry tomatoes and inhibit enzymatic browning. In addition, since this derivative delayed the postharvest senescence of cherry tomatoes, the aroma compounds remain relatively constant throughout the storage period.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to develop three-dimensional collagen/gelatin/hydroxyethyl cellulose composites in combination with gelatin or collagen-gelatin loaded microspheres. Microspheres were prepared by an emulsification/crosslinking method. A 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl-aminopropyl)-carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) mixture were used as a crosslinking agent for the obtained materials. The structure of the materials was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and infrared spectroscopy. Moreover, a Calendula officinalis (pot marigold) flower extract release profile of the microsphere-loaded matrices was assessed in vitro. Additionally, porosity, density, stability, swelling and mechanical properties were tested. On the basis of SEM images, the microspheres exhibited a spherical shape and were irregularly dispersed in the polymer matrix. However, it was found that the addition of microparticles to obtained materials did not significantly change their microstructure. We observed a slight decrease in the swelling properties of matrices and an increase in values of Young's modulus. Significantly, the addition of microspheres to the polymer matrices led to improved loading capacity of materials and release performance of Calendula officinalis flower extract. This makes the collagen/gelatin/hydroxyethyl cellulose composites containing microspheres a promising and suitable vehicle for biomedical, dermatological, or cosmetic applications.
