Abstract
Bone defects resulting from trauma, illness or congenital abnormalities represent a significant challenge to global health. Conventional treatments such as autographs and allografts have limitations, leading to the exploration of bone tissue engineering (BTE) as an alternative approach. This review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of bone regeneration mechanisms with a focus on the role of chitosan-based biomaterials and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in BTE. In addition, the physiochemical and biological properties of chitosan, its potential for bone regeneration when combined with other materials and the mechanisms through which MSCs facilitate bone regeneration were investigated. In addition, different methods of scaffold development and the incorporation of MSCs into chitosan-based scaffolds were examined. Chitosan has remarkable biocompatibility, biodegradability and osteoconductivity, making it an attractive choice for BTE. Interactions between transcription factors such as Runx2 and Osterix and signaling pathways such as the BMP and Wnt pathways regulate the differentiation of MSCs and bone regeneration. Various forms of scaffolding, including porous and fibrous injections, have shown promise in BTE. The synergistic combination of chitosan and MSCs in BTE has significant potential for addressing bone defects and promoting bone regeneration, highlighting the promising future of clinical challenges posed by bone defects.

Graphene-silymarin-loaded chitosan/gelatin/hyaluronic acid hybrid constructs for advanced full-thickness burn wound management. Int J Pharm 2024; 659:124238. [PMID: 38768692 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124238] [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: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
Burn wounds (BWs) with extensive blood loss, along with bacterial infections and poor healing, may become detrimental and pose significant rehabilitation obstacles in medical facilities. Therefore, the freeze-drying method synthesized novel hemocompatible chitosan, gelatin, and hyaluronic acid infused with graphene oxide-silymarin (CGH-SGO) hybrid constructs for application as a BW patch. Most significantly, synthesized hybrid constructs exhibited an interconnected-porous framework with precise pore sizes (≈118.52 µm) conducive to biological functions. Furthermore, the FTIR and XRD analyses document the constructs' physiochemical interactions. Similarly, enhanced swelling ratios, adequate WVTR (736 ± 78 g m-2 hr-1), and bio-degradation rates were seen during the physiological examination of constructs. Following the in vitro investigations, SMN-GO added to constructs improved their anti-bacterial (against E.coli and S. aureus), anti-oxidant, hemocompatible, and bio-compatible characteristics in conjunction with prolonged drug release. Furthermore, in vivo, implanting constructs on wounds exhibited significant acceleration in full-thickness burn wound (FT-BW) healing on the 14th day (CGH-SGO: 95 ± 2.1 %) in contrast with the control (Gauze: 71 ± 4.2 %). Additionally, contrary to gauze, the in vivo rat tail excision model administered with constructs assured immediate blood clotting. Therefore, CGH-SGO constructs with an improved porous framework, anti-bacterial activity, hemocompatibility, and biocompatibility could represent an attractive option for healing FT-BWs.

Abstract
This study explores the structural, electrical, dielectric, and bioactivity properties of chitosan (CS) composites incorporating graphene (G) nanoparticles. Characterization techniques, including Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), dielectric spectroscopy, and in vitro testing in SBF, were employed to investigate the effects of G content and crosslinking. The XPS peak at 289.89 eV for CS-G10 indicates CC and CH bonds, suggesting significant interactions between chitosan's hydroxyl groups and graphene's carbon atoms, ensuring structural homogeneity. Dielectric constant (ε') gradually increased with G loading (0 %, 1 %, 5 %, and 10 %) for uncrosslinked composites, reaching 17.94, 18.92, 28.28, and 41.1, respectively. Crosslinked composites exhibited reduced ε' values (15.71, 15.42, 14.14, and 27.03) compared to non-crosslinked ones, with marginal increases post-percolation threshold (5 wt% G filling). XRD analysis revealed shifts in characteristic peaks of CS after SBF treatment, with new peaks at 28.9° and 48.5° indicating hydroxyapatite presence, confirming composite bioactivity. CS-G10/GA showed the highest bioactivity, suggesting promise for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Bone scaffolds are widely employed for treating various bone disorders, including defects, fractures, and accidents. Gradient bone scaffolds present a promising approach by incorporating gradients in shape, porosity, density, and other properties, mimicking the natural human body structure. This design offers several advantages over traditional scaffolds. A key advantage is the enhanced matching of human tissue properties, facilitating cell adhesion and migration. Furthermore, the gradient structure fosters a smooth transition between scaffold and surrounding tissue, minimizing the risk of inflammation or rejection. Mechanical stability is also improved, providing better support for bone regeneration. Additionally, gradient bone scaffolds can integrate drug delivery systems, enabling controlled release of drugs or growth factors to promote specific cellular activities during the healing process. This comprehensive review examines the design aspects of gradient bone scaffolds, encompassing structure and drug delivery capabilities. By optimizing the scaffold's inherent advantages through gradient design, bone regeneration outcomes can be improved. The insights presented in this article contribute to the academic understanding of gradient bone scaffolds and their applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The rapid and effective healing of skin wounds resulted from severe injuries and full-layer skin defects remains a pressing clinical challenge in contemporary medical practice. The reduction of wound infection and rapid healing is helpful to rebuild and repair skin tissue. Here, a thermosensitive chitosan-based wound dressing hydrogel incorporating β-glycerophosphate (GP), hydroxy propyl cellulose (HPC), graphene oxide (GO), and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is developed, which exhibits the dual functions of antibacterial properties and repair promotion. GP and HPC enhance the mechanical properties through forming hydrogen bonding connection, while GO produces local heat under near-infrared light, leading to improved blood circulation and skin recovery. Notably, antibacterial properties against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and control-release of growth factors from PRP are also achieved based on the system. In vitro experiments reveal its biocompatibility, and ability to promote cell proliferation and migration. Animal experiments demonstrate that the epithelial repair and collagen deposition can be promoted during skin wound healing in Sprague Dawley rats. Moreover, a reduction in wound inflammation levels and the improvement of wound microenvironment are observed, collectively fostering effective wound healing. Therefore, the composite hydrogel system incorporated with GO and PRP can be a promising dressing for the treatment of skin wounds.

Abstract
The current situation of diabetes prevention and control is extremely severe. For instance, glimepiride (GLM), a third-generation sulfonylurea, demonstrates suboptimal clinical efficacy in oral dosage forms, which underscores the pressing need for the development of a new dosage form. Recently, in situ gel subcutaneous implants have garnered considerable attention. Hydroxybutyl chitosan (HBC) can spontaneously crosslink to form a thermosensitive hydrogel and has good biocompatibility. However, its application is hindered by its limited mechanical properties. Graphene oxide (GO), known for its stable dispersion in water, can load GLM through π-π stacking interactions. When combined with HBC, GO enhances the mechanical properties and stability of the hydrogel. Therefore, an HBC-GO@GLM hydrogel was prepared. Rheological analysis revealed that the incorporation of GO increased the critical gelation temperature of the 5 wt% HBC hydrogel from 19.1°C to 27.2°C, considerably enhancing the mechanical properties of the hydrogel. Using encapsulation efficiency as an evaluation index, the optimal encapsulation efficiency of GO@GLM was determined to be 73.53% ± 0.45% with a drug loading capacity of 27.39 ± 0.17% using the Box-Behnken design model. Computer simulation technology validated the interaction between the materials and the drug release mechanism. Pharmacokinetic results showed that compared to the HBC@GLM group, the half-life (t1/2), mean residence time and the area under the curve for the HBC-GO@GLM group were approximately 3 times those of the HBC@GLM group. Subcutaneous implantation of the HBC-GO@GLM hydrogel for drug delivery considerably extended the drug's action time in the body, thereby maintaining blood sugar levels within a normal and stable range for an extended period.

Abstract
Surgical resection remains the primary treatment modality for bone tumors. However, it is prone to local bone defects and tumor recurrence. Therefore, there is an urgent need for multifunctional biomaterials that combine tumor treatment and bone repair after bone tumor surgery. Herein, a chitosan composite scaffold (CS/DOX@Ti-MOF) was designed for both tumor therapy and bone repair. Among them, the amino-functionalized Ti-based metal-organic framework (NH2-MIL-125 (Ti), Ti-MOF) has a high specific surface area of 1116 m2/g and excellent biocompatibility, and promotes osteogenic differentiation. The doxorubicin (DOX) loading capacity of Ti-MOF was 322 ± 21 mg/g, and DOX@Ti-MOF has perfect antitumor activity. Furthermore, the incorporation of DOX@Ti-MOF improved the physical and mechanical properties of the composite scaffolds, making the scaffold surface rough and favorable for cells to attach. CS/DOX@Ti-MOF retains the unique properties of each component. It responds to the release of DOX in the tumor microenvironment to remove residual tumor cells, followed by providing a site for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. This promotes bone repair and achieves the sequential treatment of postoperative bone tumors. Overall, CS/DOX@Ti-MOF may be a promising substitute for postoperative bone tumor clearance and bone defect repair. It also provides a possible strategy for postoperative bone tumor treatment.

Abstract
Despite the advancements in bone tissue engineering, the majority of implant failures are caused due to microbial contamination. So, efforts are being made to develop biomaterial with antimicrobial property enhancing the regeneration of damaged bone tissue. In the present study, chitosan-gelatin (CG) scaffolds containing silver-doped hydroxyapatite (AgHAP) nanoparticles at 0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5% (w/v) were fabricated by lyophilization technique. The results confirmed the synthesis of AgHAP nanoparticles and showed interconnected porous structure of the nanocomposite scaffolds with 89%-75% porosity. Similarly, the swelling percentage, degradation behavior and compressive modulus of CG-AgHAP nanocomposite scaffolds were 1666%, 40% and 0.7 MPa, respectively. The developed nanocomposite scaffolds revealed better antimicrobial properties and bioactivity. The cell culture studies showed favorable viability of Wharton's jelly stem cells on CG-AgHAP nanocomposite scaffolds. CAM (chorioallantoic membrane) assay determined the angiogenic potential with better visualization of blood vessels in the CAM area. Hence, the obtained results confirmed that CG-AgHAP3 nanocomposite scaffold was the most suitable for bone tissue engineering applications among all scaffolds.

Abstract
The creation of a suitable scaffold is a crucial step in the process of bone tissue engineering (BTE). The scaffold, acting as an artificial extracellular matrix, plays a significant role in determining the fate of cells by affecting their proliferation and differentiation in BTE. Therefore, careful consideration should be given to the fabrication approach and materials used for scaffold preparation. Natural polypeptides such as gelatin and collagen have been widely used for this purpose. The unique properties of nanoparticles, which vary depending on their size, charge, and physicochemical properties, have demonstrated potential in solving various challenges encountered in BTE. Therefore, nanocomposite biomaterials consisting of polymers and nanoparticles have been extensively used for BTE. Gelatin has also been utilized in combination with other nanomaterials to apply for this purpose. Composites of gelatin with various types of nanoparticles are particularly promising for creating scaffolds with superior biological and physicochemical properties. This review explores the use of nanocomposite biomaterials based on gelatin and various types of nanoparticles together for applications in bone tissue engineering.

In situ forming alginate/gelatin hydrogel scaffold through Schiff base reaction embedded with curcumin-loaded chitosan microspheres for bone tissue regeneration. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 256:128335. [PMID: 38007028 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128335] [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: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 10/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/13/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023]
Abstract
In this study, we developed a biocompatible composite hydrogel that incorporates microspheres. This was achieved using a Schiff base reaction, which combines the amino and aldehyde groups present in gelatin (Gel) and oxidized alginate (OAlg). We suggest this hydrogel as a promising scaffold for bone tissue regeneration. To further boost its osteogenic capabilities and mechanical resilience, we synthesized curcumin (Cur)-loaded chitosan microspheres (CMs) and integrated them into the Gel-OAlg matrix. This formed a robust composite gel framework. We conducted comprehensive evaluations of various properties, including gelation time, morphology, compressive strength, rheological behavior, texture, swelling rate, in vitro degradation, and release patterns. A remarkable observation was that the inclusion of 30 mg/mL Cur-CMs significantly enhanced the hydrogel's mechanical and bioactive features. Over three weeks, the Gel-OAlg/Cur-CMs (30) composite showed a cumulative curcumin release of 35.57%. This was notably lower than that observed in standalone CMs and Gel-OAlg hydrogels. Additionally, the Gel-OAlg/Cur-CMs (30) hydrogel presented a reduced swelling rate and weight loss relative to hydrogels devoid of Cur-CMs. On the cellular front, the Gel-OAlg/Cur-CMs (30) hydrogel showcased superior biocompatibility. It also displayed increased calcium deposition, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and elevated osteogenic gene expression in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). These results solidify its potential as a scaffold for bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering have emerged as a multidisciplinary promising field in the quest to address the limitations of traditional medical approaches. One of the key aspects of these fields is the development of such types of biomaterials that can mimic the extracellular matrix and provide a conducive environment for tissue regeneration. In this regard, chitosan has played a vital role which is a naturally derived linear bi-poly-aminosaccharide, and has gained significant attention due to its biocompatibility and unique properties. Chitosan possesses many unique physicochemical properties, making it a significant polysaccharide for different applications such as agriculture, nutraceutical, biomedical, food, nutraceutical, packaging, etc. as well as significant material for developing next-generation hydrogel and bio-scaffolds for regenerative medicinal applications. Moreover, chitosan can be easily modified to incorporate desirable properties, such as improved mechanical strength, enhanced biodegradability, and controlled release of bioactive molecules. Blending chitosan with other polymers or incorporating nanoparticles into its matrix further expands its potential in tissue engineering applications. This review summarizes the most recent studies of the last 10 years based on chitosan, blends, and nanocomposites and their application in bone tissue engineering, hard tissue engineering, dental implants, dental tissue engineering, dental fillers, and cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
3D printing fabrication has become a dominant approach for the creation of tissue engineering constructs as it is accurate, fast, reproducible and can produce patient-specific templates. In this study, 3D printing is applied to create nanocomposite scaffold of polylactic acid (PLA)/hardystonite (HT)-graphene oxide (GO). GO is utilized as a coupling agent of alkaline treated HT nanoparticles within PLA matrix. The addition of HT-GO nanoparticles of up to 30 wt% to PLA matrix was found to increase the degradability from 7.33 ± 0.66 to 16.03 ± 1.47 % during 28 days. Also, the addition of 20 wt% of HT-GO nanoparticles to PLA scaffold (PLA/20HTGO sample) significantly increased the compressive strength (from 7.65 ± 0.86 to 14.66 ± 1.01 MPa) and elastic modulus (from 94.46 ± 18.03 to 189.15 ± 10.87 MPa). The apatite formation on the surface of nanocomposite scaffolds in simulated body fluid within 28 days confirmed the excellent bioactivity of nanocomposite scaffolds. The MG63 cell adhesion and proliferation and, also, the rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells osteogenic differentiation were highly stimulated on the PLA/20HTGO scaffold. According to the sum of results obtained in the current study, the optimized PLA/20HTGO nanocomposite scaffold is highly promising for hard tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Biological macromolecules are excellent materials for wound dressing owing to their similar structure to the extracellular matrix and adjustable physicochemical properties. This research focuses on fabricating biological macromolecule-based hydrogel with desirable antibacterial, antioxidant, controlled drug release, cytocompatibility, and wound healing properties. Herein, different concentrations of nanoceria (NC) and flurbiprofen (FLU) drug-loaded gellan gum/gelatin (GG/Ge) based dual crosslinked (Ionic and EDC/NHS coupling) hydrogels were engineered. All fabricated hydrogels were hydrophilic, biodegradable, good strength, porous, antioxidant, hemocompatible and cytocompatible. Among all, hydrogel loaded with 500 μg/ml NC (GG/Ge/NC@FLU) exhibited desirable antioxidant, antibacterial (killed Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli within 12 h), hemocompatible, cytocompatible, supports oxidative-stressed L929 cell growth and acted as a controlled release matrix for FLU, following Fickian diffusion, Peppas Sahlin and Korsmeyer-Peppas drug release models. Furthermore, nanocomposite hydrogel (GG/Ge/NC@FLU)-treated wounds of rats on day 14 demonstrated significantly higher collagen synthesis, nearly 100 % wound contractions, and efficiently decreased the expression of TNF-α and IL-1 while increasing the production of IL-10 and TNF-ß3, indicating antiinflammatory activity, and effectively reduced the expression of VEGF gene indicating effective angiogenesis than all other controls. In conclusion, the fabricated multifunctional GG/Ge/NC@FLU nanocomposite hydrogel shows promising potential for effectively treating full-thickness wound healing in a rat model.

Abstract
Replacement of bone defects with bone graft or implant is an important therapeutic strategy that has been used in routine practice. However, the identification of biomaterials that can mimic natural bone properties and serve as bone substitutes remains a major challenge. In this context, alumina-zirconia (Al2O3/ZrO2) nanocomposites emerge as potential alternatives for biomedical applications, owing to their high mechanical strength, wear resistance, and biocompatibility. In this sense, in this study, we prepared porous Al2O3/ZrO2 nanocomposites (scaffolds) using the gelcasting method and biomimetically coated them with calcium phosphate (CaP). We evaluated the biocompatibility of the scaffolds using the quantitative MTT cytotoxicity test in L929 cells. Moreover, rabbit adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (rADMSCs) were seeded with CaP-containing and CaP-free porous samples to evaluate cell proliferation and cell-scaffold interaction in vitro. Our results showed that the Al2O3/ZrO2 scaffolds were non-cytotoxic, and there were no significant differences between CaP-containing and CaP-free scaffolds in terms of cell growth and adhesion. In contrast, when co-cultured with rADMSCs, the scaffolds enhanced cell proliferation and cell adhesion. The rADMSCs adhered and migrated through the pores of the scaffold and anchored to different poles with differentiated elongated structures. These results suggest osteogenic differentiation of rADMSCs in response to mechanical loading of Al2O3/ZrO2 scaffolds. Therefore, we conclude that Al2O3/ZrO2 scaffolds have demonstrated significant implications in bone tissue engineering and are valuable biomaterials for bone replacement.

Abstract
The growing demand for more efficient materials for medical applications brought together two previously distinct fields: medicine and engineering. Regenerative medicine has evolved with the engineering contributions to improve materials and devices for medical use. In this regard, graphene is one of the most promising materials for bone tissue engineering and its potential for bone repair has been studied by several research groups. The aim of this study is to conduct a scoping review including articles published in the last 12 years (from 2010 to 2022) that have used graphene and its derivatives (graphene oxide and reduced graphene) in preclinical studies for bone tissue regeneration, searching in PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Central, and clinicaltrials.gov (to confirm no study has started with clinical trial). Boolean searches were performed using the defined key words "bone" and "graphene", and manuscript abstracts were uploaded to Rayyan, a web-tool for systematic and scoping reviews. This scoping review was conducted based on Joanna Briggs Institute Manual for Scoping Reviews and the report follows the recommendations of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses - Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) statement. After the search protocol and application of the inclusion criteria, 77 studies were selected and evaluated by five blinded researchers. Most of the selected studies used composite materials associated with graphene and its derivatives to natural and synthetic polymers, bioglass, and others. Although a variety of graphene materials were analyzed in these studies, they all concluded that graphene, its derivatives, and its composites improve bone repair processes by increasing osteoconductivity, osteoinductivity, new bone formation, and angiogenesis. Thus, this systematic review opens up new opportunities for the development of novel strategies for bone tissue engineering with graphene.

Abstract
Mechanical properties appropriate to native tissues, as an essential component in bone tissue engineering scaffolds, plays a significant role in tissue formation. In the current study, Poly-3 hydroxybutyrate-chitosan (PC) scaffolds reinforced with graphene oxide (GO) were made by the electrospinning method. The addition of GO led to a decrease in fibers diameter, an increase in thermal capacity and an improvement in the surface hydrophilicity of nanocomposite scaffolds. A significant increase in the mechanical properties of PC/GO (PCG) nanocomposite scaffolds was achieved due to the inherent strength of GO as well as its uniform dispersion throughout the polymeric matrix owing to hydrogen bonding and polar interactions. Also, lower biological degradation of the scaffolds (~30% in 100 days) due to the presence of GO provides essential mechanical support for bone regeneration. In addition, the bioactivity results showed that GO reinforcement significantly increases the biomineralization on the surface of the scaffolds. Evaluating cell adhesion and proliferation, as well as ALP activity of MG-63 cells on PC and PCG scaffolds indicated the positive effect of GO on scaffolds' biocompatibility. Overall, the improvement of physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties of GO-reinforced scaffolds shows the potential of PCG nanocomposite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.

Antimicrobial and Osteogenic Effects of Collagen Membrane Decorated with Chitosan-Nano-Hydroxyapatite. Biomolecules 2023; 13:biom13040579. [PMID: 37189328 DOI: 10.3390/biom13040579] [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: 01/25/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Collagen membranes are routinely used in oral surgery for bone regeneration. Despite their numerous advantages, such as stimulating bone growth, bacterial contamination still remains one of the disadvantages of membrane use. Thus, we assessed the biocompatibility and osteogenic and antibacterial properties of a collagen membrane (OsteoBiol) modified with chitosan (CHI) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HApNPs). Attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) were performed for membrane characterization. Biocompatibility was assessed on dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) by an MTT assay, while the osteogenic effect was assessed by an ALP activity assay and qPCR analysis of osteogenic markers (BMP4, ALP, RUNX2, and OCN). Antimicrobial properties were investigated by counting colony-forming units (CFUs) of Streptococcus mitis, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Fusobaterium nucleatum on membranes and in the surrounding medium. Membranes showed no cytotoxicity. ALP activity was higher and ALP, BMP4, and OCN genes were up-regulated in DPSCs on modified membranes compared to unmodified membranes. The CFUs were reduced on modified membranes and in the medium. Modified membranes showed great biocompatibility and a high osteoinductive effect. Additionally, they showed antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects against periopathogens. It can be concluded that the incorporation of CHI and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles in collagen membranes may be advantageous to promote osteogenesis and reduce bacterial adhesion.

Abstract
Thymol (2-isopropyl-5-methylphenol; Thy) is a monoterpene phenolic phytocompound with medicinal properties; however, its impact on osteogenesis is yet to be thoroughly investigated. Its distribution is often hampered because of its intricate hydrophobic structure, which reduces its bioavailability. In this study, we synthesized a drug delivery vehicle using semi-interpenetrating polymer network (SIPN) hydrogels containing sodium alginate and poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) (SA/Pox) loaded with Thy at varying concentrations (100, 150, and 200 μM). Subsequently, they were coated with chitosan (CS) to increase bioactivity and for sustained and prolonged release of Thy. Thy-loaded CS-coated SIPN hydrogels (SA/Pox/CS-Thy) were developed using ionic gelation and polyelectrolyte-complexation techniques. The addition of CS to hydrogels enhanced their physicochemical and material properties. These hydrogels were cytofriendly toward mouse mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs). When mMSCs were cultured on hydrogels, Thy stimulated osteoblastic differentiation, as evidenced by calcium deposits at the cellular level. The expression of RUNX2, a key bone transcriptional factor, and other differentiation biomarkers was significantly enhanced in mMSCs cultured on SA/Pox/CS-Thy hydrogels. Notably, Thy in the SA/Pox/CS hydrogels significantly activated the TGF-β/BMP signaling pathway, which is involved in osteogenesis. A rat tibial bone defect model system revealed that the incorporation of Thy into SA/Pox/CS hydrogels augmented bone regeneration. Thus, sustained and prolonged release of Thy from the SA/Pox/CS hydrogels promoted osteoblast differentiation in vitro and bone formation in vivo. These findings shed light on the effect of Thy bioavailability in fostering osteoblast differentiation and its prospective application in bone rejuvenation.

Abstract
Cell-free and cell-loaded constructs are used to bridge the critical-sized bone defect. Oxidative stress at the site of the bone defects is a major interference that slows bone healing. Recently, there has been an increase in interest in enhancing the properties of three-dimensional scaffolds with free radical scavenging materials. Cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) can scavenge free radicals due to their redox-modulating property. In this study, freeze-drying was used to fabricate CG-CNPs nanocomposite scaffolds using gelatin (G), chitosan (C), and cerium oxide nanoparticles. Physico-chemical, mechanical, and biological characterization of CG-CNPs scaffolds were studied. CG-CNPs scaffolds demonstrated better results in terms of physicochemical, mechanical, and biological properties as compared to CG-scaffold. CG-CNPs scaffolds were cyto-friendly to MC3T3-E1 cells studied by performing in-vitro and in-ovo studies. The scaffold's antimicrobial study revealed high inhibition zones against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. With 79 % porosity, 45.99 % weight loss, 178.25 kPa compressive modulus, and 1.83 Ca/P ratio, the CG-CNP2 scaffold displays the best characteristics. As a result, the CG-CNP2 scaffolds are highly biocompatible and could be applied to repair bone defects.

Abstract
Zwitterionic materials are widely applied in the biomedical field due to their excellent antimicrobial, non-cytotoxicity, and antifouling properties but have never been applied in bone tissue engineering. In this study, we synthesized a novel zwitterionic hydrogel incorporated with graphene oxide (GO) using maleic anhydride (MA) as a cross-linking agent by grafted L-cysteine (L-Cys) as the zwitterionic material on maleilated chitosan via click chemistry. The composition and each reaction procedure of the novel zwitterionic hydrogel were characterized via X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), while the morphology was imaged by scanning electron microscope (SEM). In vitro cell studies, CCK-8 and live/dead assay, alkaline phosphatase activity, W-B, and qRT-CR tests showed zwitterionic hydrogel incorporated with GO remarkably enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs); it is dose-dependent, and 2 mg/mL GO is the optimum concentration. In vivo tests also indicated the same results. Hence, these results suggested the novel zwitterionic hydrogel exhibited porous characteristics similar to natural bone tissue. In conclusion, the zwitterionic scaffold has highly biocompatible and mechanical properties. When GO was incorporated in this zwitterionic scaffold, the zwitterionic scaffold slows down the release rate and reduces the cytotoxicity of GO. Zwitterions and GO synergistically promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs in vivo and in vitro. The optimal concentration is 2 mg/mL GO.

Abstract
Orthopedic implants provide an avascular surface for microbial attachment and biofilm formation, impeding the entry of immune cells and the diffusion of antibiotics. The above is an important cause of dental and orthopedic implant-associated infection (IAI). For the prevention and treatment of IAI, the drawbacks of antibiotic resistance and surgical treatment are increasingly apparent. Due to their outstanding biological properties such as biocompatibility, immunomodulatory effects, and antibacterial properties, graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) have been applied to bone tissue engineering to deal with IAI, and in particular have great potential application in drug/gene carriers, multi-functional platforms, and coating forms. Here we review the latest research progress and achievements in GBNs for the prevention and treatment of IAI, mainly including their biomedical applications for antibacterial and immunomodulation effects, and for inducing osteogenesis. Furthermore, the biosafety of graphene family materials in bone tissue regeneration and the feasibility of clinical application are critically analyzed and discussed.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma remains a worldwide concern due to the poor effectiveness of available therapies in the clinic. Therefore, it is necessary to find a safe and effective therapy to realize the complete resection of osteosarcoma and reconstruction of the bone defect. Magnetic hyperthermia based on magnetic nanoparticles can kill tumor cells by raising the temperature without causing the side effects of conventional cancer treatments. This research aims to design a high-performance magnetic hydrogel composed of gelatin methacrylate and highly magnetic cobalt ferrite (CFO) nanoparticles for osteosarcoma treatment. Specifically, CFO is surface functionalized with methacrylate groups (MeCFO). The surface modified CFO has good biocompatibility and stable solution dispersion ability. Afterward, MeCFO nanoparticles are incorporated into GelMA to fabricate a three-dimensional (3D) printable MeCFO/GelMA magnetic hydrogel and then photocross-linked by UV radiation. MeCFO/GelMA hydrogel has high porosity and swelling ability, indicating that the hydrogel possesses more space and good hydrophily for cell survival. The rheological results showed that the hydrogel has shear thinning property, which is suitable as a bioprinting ink to produce desired structures by a 3D printer. Furthermore, 50 μg/mL MeCFO not only decreases the cell activity of osteosarcoma cells but also promotes the osteogenic differentiation of mBMSCs. The results of the CCK-8 assay and live/dead staining showed that MeCFO/GelMA hydrogel had good cytocompatibility. These results indicated that MeCFO/GelMA hydrogel with potential antitumor and bone reconstruction functions is a promising therapeutic strategy after osteosarcoma resection.

Abstract
The field of tissue engineering is constantly evolving due to the fabrication of novel platforms that promise to stimulate tissue regeneration in the scenario of accidents. Here, we describe the fabrication of fibrous nanostructured substrates based on fish gelatin (FG) and enriched with graphene oxide (GO) and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and demonstrate its biological properties in terms of cell viability and proliferation, cell adhesion, and differentiation. For this purpose, electrospun fibers were fabricated using aqueous precursors containing either only GO and only MNP nanospecies, or both of them within a fish gelatin solution. The obtained materials were investigated in terms of morphology, aqueous media affinity, tensile elasticity, and structural characteristics. The biological evaluation was assessed against adipose-derived stem cells by MTT, LDH, Live/Dead assay, cytoskeleton investigation, and neuronal trans-differentiation. The results indicate an overall good interaction and show that these materials offer a biofriendly environment. A higher concentration of both nanospecies types induced some toxic effects, thus 0.5% GO, MNPs, and GO/MNPs turned out to be the most suitable option for biological testing. Moreover, a successful neuronal differentiation has been shown on these materials, where cells presented a typical neuronal phenotype. This study demonstrates the potential of this scaffold to be further used in tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Intratumoral (IT) injection of chemotherapeutics into needle-accessible solid tumors can directly localize the anticancer drug in the tumor site, thus increasing its local bioavailability and reducing its undesirable effects compared to systemic administration. In this study, graphene oxide (GO)-based chitosan/β-glycerophosphate (CS/GP) thermosensitive injectable composite hydrogels (CH) were prepared and optimized for the localized controlled delivery of doxorubicin (DOX). A quality-by-design (QbD) approach was used to study the individual and combined effects of several formulation variables to produce optimal DOX-loaded GO/CS/GP CH with predetermined characteristics, including gelation time, injectability, porosity, and swelling capacity. The surface morphology of the optimal formulation (DOX/opt CH), chemical interaction between its ingredients and in vitro release of DOX in comparison to GO-free CS/GP CH were investigated. Cell viability and cellular uptake after treatment with DOX/opt CH were studied on MCF 7, MDB-MB-231 and FaDu cell lines. The statistical analysis of the measured responses revealed significant effects of the concentration of GO, the concentration of CS, and the CS:GP ratio on the physicochemical characteristics of the prepared GO/CS/GP CH. The optimization process showed that DOX-loaded GO/CS/GP CH prepared using 0.1% GO and 1.7% CS at a CS: GO ratio of 3:1 (v/v) had the highest desirability value. DOX/opt CH showed a porous microstructure and chemical compatibility between its ingredients. The incorporation of GO resulted in an increase in the ability of the CH matrices to control DOX release in vitro. Finally, cellular characterization showed a time-dependent increase in cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of DOX after treatment with DOX/opt CH. The proposed DOX/opt CH might be considered a promising injectable platform to control the release and increase the local bioavailability of chemotherapeutics in the treatment of solid tumors.

Abstract
Bioactive glass (BG) is an interesting topic in soft tissue engineering because of its biocompatibility and bonding potential to increase fibroblast cell proliferation, synthesize growth factors, and stimulate granulation tissue development. The proposed BG with and without sodium (Na), prepared by the sol–gel method, is employed in wound healing studies. The BG/graphene oxide (GO) and BG (Na-free)/GO nanocomposites were investigated against fibroblast L929 cells in vitro; the 45S5 BG nanocomposites exhibited desired cell viability (80%), cell proliferation (30%), cell migration (25%), metabolic activity, and wound contraction due to extracellular matrix (ECM) production and enhanced protein release by fibroblast cells. Additionally, the antioxidant assays for BG, BG (Na-free), GO, and BG/GO, BG (Na-free)/GO were evaluated for effective wound healing properties. The results showed decreased inflammation sites in the wound area, assessed by the (2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate) (DPPH) assay with ~ 80% radical scavenging activity, confirming their anti-inflammatory and improved wound healing properties.

Abstract
Abstract
Nanocomposite biocompatible graphene oxide-based scaffolds Ch-G-NBG-go were successfully fabricated by lyophilization technique. The fabricated nano-biocomposite scaffolds were crosslinked with EDC-NHS to achieve water- stabilized structure. Then, these scaffolds were tested through X-Ray diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, High-Resolution Scanning Electron microscopy, Thermogravimetric analysis and Differential Scanning Colorimetry to analyze their physicochemical properties. The average pore size for Ch-G-NBG-go scaffolds with different concentrations was observed in the range of 120-160μm. After GO incorporation, the reduced weight loss was observed in thermogravimetric analysis, revealing its effect over developed scaffolds. In the Lysozyme -PBS solution, the GO-based scaffolds were found firmly stable at room temperature even after a long duration of 28 days also. However, the degradation rate increased after the 21st day highly in the 90% go based scaffold, yet the water retention capacity improved after GO addition in the Ch-G-NBG scaffolds. The scaffold’s potential for bone tissue engineering was evaluated by MG-63 cell culture. It revealed suitable cell attachment and proliferation of cells compared to the Ch-G-NBG scaffold. ALP activity suggested improved osteogenic differentiation of MG-63 cells over GO scaffolds. Based on these results, the nano-biocomposite scaffold appears to have the potential for utilization in bone tissue restoration, replacement and regeneration.

Abstract
After several billions of years, nature still makes decisions on its own to identify, develop, and direct the most effective material for phenomena/challenges faced. Likewise, and inspired by the nature, we learned how to take steps in developing new technologies and materials innovations. Wet and strong adhesion by Mytilidae mussels (among which Mytilus edulis—blue mussel and Mytilus californianus—California mussel are the most well‐known species) has been an inspiration in developing advanced adhesives for the moist condition. The wet adhesion phenomenon is significant in designing tissue adhesives and surgical sealants. However, a deep understanding of engaged chemical moieties, microenvironmental conditions of secreted proteins, and other contributing mechanisms for outstanding wet adhesion mussels are essential for the optimal design of wet glues. In this review, all aspects of wet adhesion of Mytilidae mussels, as well as different strategies needed for designing and fabricating wet adhesives are discussed from a chemistry point of view. Developed muscle‐inspired chemistry is a versatile technique when designing not only wet adhesive, but also, in several more applications, especially in the bioengineering area. The applications of muscle‐inspired biomaterials in various medical applications are summarized for future developments in the field.

Abstract
The repair of infected bone defects with irregular shapes is still a challenge in clinical work. Infected bone defects are faced with several major concerns: the complex shapes of bone defects, intractable bacterial infection and insufficient osseointegration. To solve these problems, we developed a personalized MXene composite hydrogel scaffold GelMA/β-TCP/sodium alginate (Sr2+)/MXene (Ti3C2) (GTAM) with photothermal antibacterial and osteogenic abilities by 3D printing. In vitro, GTAM scaffolds could kill both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by NIR irradiation due to the excellent photothermal effects of MXene. Furthermore, rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were mixed into GTAM bioinks for 3D bioprinting. The cell-laden 3D printed GTAM scaffolds showed biocompatibility and bone formation ability depending on MXene, crosslinked Sr2+, and β-TCP. In vivo, we implanted 3D printed GTAM scaffolds in S. aureus-infected mandible defects of rats with NIR irradiation. GTAM scaffolds could accelerate the healing of infection and bone regeneration, and play synergistic roles in antibacterial and osteogenic effects. This study not only provides a strategy for the precise osteogenesis of infected bone defects, but also broadens the biomedical applications of MXene photothermal materials.

Abstract
Kappa-carrageenan is a biocompatible natural polysaccharide able to form hydrogels for tissue regeneration. In bone tissue engineering, achieving a bioactive microenvironment with appropriate mechanical properties in polysaccharide-based scaffolds remains a challenge. This study aims to fabricate 3D scaffolds comprising kappa-carrageenan, chitosan and gelatin, crosslinked with KCl, and evaluate their mechanical and biological properties for bone tissue engineering. The produced scaffolds include kappa-carrageenan/chitosan (KC), kappa-carrageenan/chitosan/gelatin (KCG), kappa-carrageenan/chitosan/gelatin enriched with KCl (KCG-KCl), and chitosan/gelatin (CG). All scaffolds present degradation rates ranging from 30% weight loss on day 21, pore size distribution in the range of 100-160 μm and porosity above 80%. The Young modulus values range from 9 to 256 kPa, with the KCl-containing KCG scaffolds demonstrating the highest values, validating the role of KCl in the coil to helix transition of kappa-carrageenan leading to firmer structures. In vitro biological evaluation indicates that pre-osteoblasts proliferate significantly from day 3 up to day 14 on all scaffold compositions. The alkaline phosphatase activity shows a significant increase up to day 14. The calcium production displays a constant increase from day 14 up to day 28, proving that all scaffold compositions support the osteogenic differentiation potential.

Abstract
The rebuilding of the normal functioning of the damaged human body bone tissue is one of the main objectives of bone tissue engineering (BTE). Fabricated scaffolds are mostly treated as artificial supports and as materials for regeneration of neo bone tissues and must closely biomimetic the native extracellular matrix of bone. The materials used for developing scaffolds should be biodegradable, nontoxic, and biocompatible. For the resurrection of bone disorder, specifically natural and synthetic polymers such as chitosan, PCL, gelatin, PGA, PLA, PLGA, etc. meet the requirements for serving their functions as artificial bone substitute materials. Gelatin is one of the potential candidates which could be blended with other polymers or composites to improve its physicochemical, mechanical, and biological performances as a bone graft. Scaffolds are produced by several methods including electrospinning, self-assembly, freeze-drying, phase separation, fiber drawing, template synthesis, etc. Among them, freeze-drying and electrospinning are among the popular, simplest, versatile, and cost-effective techniques. The design and preparation of freeze-dried and electrospun scaffolds are of intense research over the last two decades. Freeze-dried and electrospun scaffolds offer a distinctive architecture at the micro to nano range with desired porosity and pore interconnectivity for selective movement of small biomolecules and play its role as an appropriate matrix very similar to the natural bone extracellular matrix. This review focuses on the properties and functionalization of gelatin-based polymer and its composite in the form of bone scaffolds fabricated primarily using lyophilization and electrospinning technique and their applications in BTE.

Abstract
In this study, graphene oxide (GO) was functionalized with polyethylene glycol (PEG) to understand the effect of PEGlayted GO on properties of chitosan-based nanocomposite scaffold. GO was synthesized according to modified Hummer's method and covalently linked to polymeric chains of PEG to produce polyethylene glycolated GO (PGO). Successful preparation of GO and PGO was confirmed by FT-IR and Raman techniques, where the chemical bonding of PEG and GO nanosheets were concluded based on PGOs' lower zeta potential compared to GO. Nanocomposite scaffolds were prepared by adding equal amounts of GO and PGO into 2% (w/v) chitosan (Cs) solutions. The highly porous scaffolds were developed by lyophilization of solutions. Incorporation of GO and PGO into chitosan scaffold network resulted in uniform and spherical pores. Modified samples offered higher porosity and density, indicating adequate scaffold structure. Improvements in the physical properties of prepared chitosan scaffolds were concluded through higher water absorption and retention values. Compressive strength measurement showed 6.33 and 5.5 times improvement respectively for Cs-GO and Cs-PGO samples compared to Cs scaffold. The Cs-GO scaffolds showed minimum susceptibility toward enzymatic degradation and higher degrees of protein adsorption (26% and 23% improvement in value of adsorbed protein respectively for Cs-GO and Cs-PGO compared to Cs scaffold) and biomineral formation on scaffold surface. Also, Cs-PGO sample showed the highest degree of cell viability and lower hemolysis than both Cs and Cs-GO scaffolds. Investigations showed that cell infiltration into scaffold porous structure was more prominent in Cs-PGO scaffolds than in Cs and Cs-GO scaffolds.

Abstract
The treatment of infected bone defects includes infection control and repair of the bone defect. The development of biomaterials with anti-infection and osteogenic ability provides a promising strategy for the repair of infected bone defects. Owing to its antibacterial properties, chitosan (an emerging natural polymer) has been widely studied in bone tissue engineering. Moreover, it has been shown that chitosan promotes the adhesion and proliferation of osteoblast-related cells, and can serve as an ideal carrier for bone-promoting substances. In this review, the specific molecular mechanisms underlying the antibacterial effects of chitosan and its ability to promote bone repair are discussed. Furthermore, the properties of several kinds of functionalized chitosan are analyzed and compared with those of pure chitosan. The latest research on the combination of chitosan with different types of functionalized materials and biomolecules for the treatment of infected bone defects is also summarized. Finally, the current shortcomings of chitosan-based biomaterials for the treatment of infected bone defects and future research directions are discussed. This review provides a theoretical basis and advanced design strategies for the use of chitosan-based biomaterials in the treatment of infected bone defects.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA), an inorganic compound, plays an essential role in the proliferation and differentiation of bone cells. Using cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) as green dispersants to improve homogenization of HA is promising in the fabrication of nanocomposite scaffolds with biocompatibility for bone tissue engineering. The HA/CNC (HC) nanoparticle suspension was incorporated in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based scaffold to investigate the physical and chemical properties. The PVA/HC composites demonstrated high porous structure and swelling ability for cell attachment and a 3-fold improvement in compressive modulus compared with free HC scaffold. Moreover, the presence of HC nanoparticles has promoted the proliferation and mineralization of pre-osteoblast. Our findings could provide an effective strategy by using bio-dispersants to incorporate mineral elements into synthetic polymers for the fabrication of functional tissue engineering scaffolds.

Abstract
Nanostructured materials possess unique structural and functional properties that play a crucial position in tissue engineering applications. Present investigation is aimed to synthesize chitosan-sodium alginate (CS) nanocomposite using hydrothermally prepared zirconia nanoparticles. In this, three different weight percentages of (0.5, 1, and 1.5) zirconia nanoparticles are utilized for the preparation of biomimetic nanocomposite scaffolds (CSZ) employing 4 wt% of CS by a solvent casting technique. Physico-chemical and thermal behavior of the prepared nanoparticles and their CSZ scaffolds are comprehensively characterized. Bioactivity of the prepared zirconia nanoparticles and CSZ scaffolds are explored in terms of in vitro biocompatibility, protein absorption in simulated body fluid (SBF), and phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Agar disc diffusion method is employed to identify the antibacterial property against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In vitro cytotoxicity of zirconia nanoparticles and CSZ scaffolds is identified against human urothelial carcinoma (UC6) and osteosarcoma (MG-63) cells. These studies explore that zirconia nanoparticles are suitable for biomedical applications while it is interacted with chitosan and sodium alginate (CS) due to their promising biocompatibility. Biomimetically obtained chitosan/sodium alginate scaffold contain 1 wt% zirconia nanoparticles show higher biocompatibility amenable for tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Tissue engineering is growing in developing new technologies focused on providing effective solutions to degenerative pathologies that affect different types of connective tissues. The search for biocompatible, bioactive, biodegradable, and multifunctional materials has grown significantly in recent years. Chitosan, calcium phosphates collagen, and their combination as composite materials fulfill the required properties and could result in biostimulation for tissue regeneration. In the present work, the chitosan/collagen/hydroxyapatite membranes were prepared with different concentrations of collagen and hydroxyapatite. Cell adhesion was evaluated by MTS assay for two in vitro models. Additionally, cytotoxicity of the different membranes employing hemolysis of erythrocytes isolated from human blood was carried out. The structure of the membranes was analyzed by X-rays diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermal stability properties by thermogravimetric methods (TGA). The highest cell adhesion after 48 h was obtained for chitosan membranes with the highest hydroxyapatite and collagen content. All composite membranes showed good cell adhesion and low cytotoxicity, suggesting that these materials have a significant potential to be used as biomaterials for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) and graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites have received wide attention in biomedical fields due to the synergistic effect between CS which has excellent biological characteristics and GO which owns great physicochemical, mechanical, and optical properties. Nanocomposites based on CS and GO can be fabricated into a variety of forms, such as nanoparticles, hydrogels, scaffolds, films, and nanofibers. Thanks to the ease of functionalization, the performance of these nanocomposites in different forms can be further improved by introducing other functional polymers, nanoparticles, or growth factors. With this background, the current review summarizes the latest developments of CS-GO nanocomposites in different forms and compositions in biomedical applications including drug and biomacromolecules delivery, wound healing, bone tissue engineering, and biosensors. Future improving directions and challenges for clinical practice are proposed as well.
