Abstract
Commercial mammalian collagen-based membranes used for guided tissue regeneration (GTR) in periodontal defect repair still face significant challenges, including ethical concerns, cost-effectiveness, and limited capacity for periodontal bone regeneration. Herein, an enhanced biomimetic mineralized hydroxyapatite (HAp)-fish-scale collagen (FCOL)/chitosan (CS) nanofibrous membrane was developed. Specifically, eco-friendly and biocompatible collagen extracted from grass carp fish scales was co-electrospun with CS to produce a biomimetic extracellular matrix membrane. An enhanced biomimetic mineralized HAp coating provided abundant active calcium and phosphate sites, which promoted cell osteogenic differentiation, and showed greater in vivo absorption. In vitro experiments demonstrated that the HAp-FCOL/CS membranes exhibited desirable properties with no cytotoxicity, provided a mimetic microenvironment for stem cell recruitment, and induced periodontal ligament cell osteogenic differentiation. In rat periodontal defects, HAp-FCOL/CS membranes significantly promoted new periodontal bone formation and regeneration. The results of this study indicate that low-cost, eco-friendly, and biomimetic HAp-FCOL/CS membranes could be promising alternatives to GTR membranes for periodontal regeneration in the clinic.

Alharbi N, Guthold M. Mechanical properties of hydrated electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers. J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2024; 155:106564. [PMID: 38749267 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmbbm.2024.106564] [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: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers are a promising material for biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility, slow degradation rate, and thermal stability. We electrospun PCL fibers onto a striated substrate with 12 μm wide ridges and grooves and determined their mechanical properties in an aqueous solution with a combined atomic force/inverted optical microscopy technique. Fiber diameters, D, ranged from 27 to 280 nm. The hydrated PCL fibers had an extensibility (breaking strain), εmax, of 137%. The Young's modulus, E, and tensile strength, σT, showed a strong dependence on fiber diameter, D; decreasing steeply with increasing diameter, following empirical equations E(D)=(4.3∙103∙e-D51nm+1.1∙102) MPa and σT(D)=(2.6∙103∙e-D55nm+0.6∙102) MPa. Incremental stress-strain measurements were employed to investigate the viscoelastic behavior of these fibers. The fibers exhibited stress relaxation with a fast and slow relaxation time of 3.7 ± 1.2 s and 23 ± 8 s and these experiments also allowed the determination of the elastic and viscous moduli. Cyclic stress-strain curves were used to determine that the elastic limit of the fibers, εelastic, is between 19% and 36%. These curves were also used to determine that these fibers showed small energy losses (<20%) at small strains (ε < 10%), and over 50% energy loss at large strains (ε > 50%), asymptotically approaching 61%, as Eloss=61%·(1-e-0.04*ε). Our work is the first mechanical characterization of hydrated electrospun PCL nanofibers; all previous experiments were performed on dry PCL fibers, to which we will compare our data.

Potential use of a bone tissue engineering scaffold based on electrospun poly (ɛ-caprolactone) - Poly (vinyl alcohol) hybrid nanofibers containing modified cockle shell nanopowder. Heliyon 2024; 10:e31360. [PMID: 38813180 PMCID: PMC11133941 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31360] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/31/2024] Open
Abstract
Today, the construction of scaffolds promoting the differentiation of stem cells is an intelligent innovation that accelerates the differentiation toward the target tissue. The use of calcium and phosphate compounds is capable of elevating the precision and efficiency of the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. In this research, osteoconductive electrospun poly (ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) - poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hybrid nanofibrous scaffolds containing modified cockle shell (CS) nanopowder were prepared and investigated. In this regard, the modified CS nanopowder was prepared by grinding and modifying with phosphoric acid, and it was then added to PVA nanofibers at different weight percentages. Based on the SEM images, the optimum content of the modified CS nanopowder was set at 7 wt %, since reaching the threshold of agglomeration restricted this incorporation. In the second step, the PVA-CS7 nanofibrous sample was hybridized with different PCL ratios. Concerning the hydrophilicity and mechanical strength, the sample named PCL50-PVA50-CS7 was ultimately selected as the optimized and suitable candidate scaffold for bone tissue application. The accelerated hydrolytic degradation of the sample was also studied by FTIR and SEM analyses, and the results confirmed that the mineral deposits of CS are available approximately 7 days for mesenchymal stem cells. Moreover, Alizarin red staining illustrated that the presence of CS in the PCL50-PVA50-CS7 hybrid nanofibrous scaffold may potentially lead to an increase in calcium deposits with high precipitates, authenticating the differentiation of stem cells towards osteogenic cells.

Abstract
Neuronal disorders are characterized by the loss of functional neurons and disrupted neuroanatomical connectivity, severely impacting the quality of life of patients. This study investigates a novel electroconductive nanocomposite consisting of glycine-derived carbon nanodots (GlyCNDs) incorporated into a collagen matrix and validates its beneficial physicochemical and electro-active cueing to relevant cells. To this end, this work employs mouse induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived neural progenitor (NP) spheroids. The findings reveal that the nanocomposite markedly augmented neuronal differentiation in NP spheroids and stimulate neuritogenesis. In addition, this work demonstrates that the biomaterial-driven enhancements of the cellular response ultimately contribute to the development of highly integrated and functional neural networks. Lastly, acute dizocilpine (MK-801) treatment provides new evidence for a direct interaction between collagen-bound GlyCNDs and postsynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, thereby suggesting a potential mechanism underlying the observed cellular events. In summary, the findings establish a foundation for the development of a new nanocomposite resulting from the integration of carbon nanomaterials within a clinically approved hydrogel, toward an effective biomaterial-based strategy for addressing neuronal disorders by restoring damaged/lost neurons and supporting the reestablishment of neuroanatomical connectivity.

Abstract
Due to the multilayer structure of skin tissue, the fabrication of a 3-layer scaffold could result in planned dermal regeneration. Herein, polyurethane (PU) and polycaprolactone (PCL), as a function of their mechanical stability and collagen due to its arginine-glycine-aspartic acid sequences, zinc ions because of overcoming the common problems of biological factors were employed. The scaffolds' physical, mechanical, and biological properties were examined by SEM, FTIR, contact angle, mechanical tensile, bacteriocidal efficacy, and hemolysis. Also, after L-929 fibroblast seeding, their biological activity was determined by SEM, DAPI, and MTT assays. Then, the cell-seeded scaffolds were implanted in full-thickness wounds of rats and evaluated by wound closure, histological, and molecular techniques. The in vivo studies showed better wound closure with the composite scaffold containing zinc ions. While its dermal re-organization was retarded in the presence of zinc ions compared to the composite scaffold containing non-doped bioglass. Despite this, the doped composite scaffold indicated better observations with the histological evaluations than the nontreated and bare scaffold groups. Real-time PCR confirmed the higher expression of FGF2 and FGFR genes in rats treated with the zinc-doped composite scaffold. In conclusion, PU/PCL-collagen/PCL-collagen containing the doped or non-doped nanoparticles showed better potential to heal dermal injuries.

Abstract
Chronic tympanic membrane (TM) perforation is a consequence of trauma or chronic otitis media, and these chronic TM perforations often lead to conduction hearing loss. This study focuses on the development of a patch using a combination of chitosan (CS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as graft material for repairing chronic tympanic membrane (TM) perforations. Aligned nanofibers were created using a specially designed collector (SDC) through the electrospinning method. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed that the CS/PVA ratio of (15:85) resulted in uniform and bead-free nanofibers. The aligned nanofibers had a diameter of 131.11 ± 28 nm, indicating that the influence of the electrostatic field introduced by the SDC affected not only the nanofiber alignment but also the nanofiber diameter. The nanofiber angles demonstrated effective alignment. This patch is infused with thyme essential oil (TEO) for antibacterial properties. The results showed that its antibacterial property for Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria was enhanced in such a way that the diameter of the antibacterial halo increased from zero to 25 mm. Cell viability assays showed >80 % viability. A preclinical case study on six patients demonstrated the biocompatibility and promising potential of the fabricated patch for eardrum repair.

Abstract
Reconstruction of bone defects remains a clinical challenge, and 3D bioprinting is a fabrication technology to treat it via tissue engineering. Collagen is currently the most popular cell scaffold for tissue engineering; however, a shortage of printability and low mechanical strength limited its application via 3D bioprinting. In the study, aiding with a gelatin support bath, a collagen-based scaffold was fabricated via 3D printing, where hydroxyapatite (HAP) and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were added to mimic the composition of bone. The results showed that the blend of HAP and collagen showed suitable rheological performance for 3D extrusion printing and enhanced the composite scaffold's strength. The gelatin support bath could effectively support the HAP/collagen scaffold's dimension with designed patterns at room temperature. BMSCs in/on the scaffold kept living and proliferating, and there was a high alkaline phosphate expression. The printed collagen-based scaffold with biocompatibility, mechanical properties and bioactivity provides a new way for bone tissue engineering via 3D bioprinting.

Abstract
Hierarchical fibrous scaffolds (HFS) consist of nanoscale fibers arranged in larger macroscale structures, much in the same pattern as in native tissue such as tendon and bone. Creation of continuous macroscale nanofiber yarns has been made possible using modified electrospinning set-ups that combine electrospinning with techniques such as twisting, drawing, and winding. In this paper, a modified electrospinning setup was used to create continuous yarns of twisted type I collagen nanofibers, also known as collagen nanoyarns (CNY), from collagen solution prepared in acetic acid. Fabricated CNYs were cross-linked and characterized using SEM imaging and mechanical testing, while denaturation of collagen and dissolution of the scaffolds were assessed using circular dichroism (CD) and UV-vis spectroscopy, respectively. HeLa cells were then cultured on the nanoyarns for 24 h to assess cell adhesion on the scaffolds. Scanning electron micrographs revealed a twisted nanofiber morphology with an average nanofiber diameter of 213 ± 60 nm and a yarn diameter of 372 ± 23 μm that shrank by 35% after covalent cross-linking. Structural denaturation assessment of native collagen using circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy showed that 60% of the triple-helical collagen content in CNYs was retained. Cross-linking of CNYs significantly improved their mechanical properties as well as stability in buffered saline with no sign of degradation for 14 days. In addition, CNY strength and stiffness increased significantly with cross-linking although in the wet state, significant loss in these properties, with a corresponding increase in elasticity, was observed. HeLa cells cultured on cross-linked CNYs for 24 h adhered to the yarn surface and oriented along the nanofiber alignment axis, displaying the characteristic spindle-like morphology of cells grown on surfaces with aligned topography. Collectively, the results demonstrate the promising potential of collagen nanoyarns as a new class of shapable biomaterial scaffold and building block for generating macroscale fiber-based tissues.

Abstract
Type I collagen (Col_1) is one of the main proteins present in the skin extracellular matrix, serving as support for skin regeneration and maturation in its granulation stage. Electrospun materials have been intensively studied as the next generation of skin wound dressing mainly due to their high surface area and fibrous porosity. However, the electrospinning of collagen-based solutions causes degradation of its structure. In this work, a coaxial electrospinning process was proposed to overcome this limitation. The production of mats of polycaprolactone (PCL)-Col_1/PVA (collagen/poly(vinyl alcohol)) composed of core-shell nanofibers was investigated. PCL solution was used as the core solution, while Col_1/PVA was used as the shell solution. PVA was used to improve the processability of collagen, while PCL was employed to improve the mechanical properties and morphology of Col_1/PVA fibers. The morphology and the cytotoxicity of the fibers were highly dependent on the processing parameters. Defect-free core-shell nanofibers were obtained with a shell/core flow rates ratio = 4, flight distance of 12 cm, and an applied voltage of 16 kV. Using this strategy, the triple helix structure characteristic of the collagen molecule was preserved. Moreover, the common post-processing of solvent removal could be suppressed, simplifying the manufacturing processing of these biomaterials. The nanostructured mats showed no cytotoxicity, high liquid absorption, structural stability, hydrophilic character, and collagen release capacity, making them a potential novel dressing for skin damage regeneration, in special in the case of chronic wounds treatment, in which exogenous collagen delivery is necessary.

Abstract
As the most prevalent structural protein in the extracellular matrix, collagen has been extensively investigated for biofabrication-based applications. However, its utilisation has been impeded due to a lack of sufficient mechanical toughness and the inability of the scaffold to mimic complex natural tissues. The anisotropic alignment of collagen fibres has been proven to be an effective method to enhance its overall mechanical properties and produce biomimetic scaffolds. This review introduces the complicated scenario of collagen structure, fibril arrangement, type, function, and in addition, distribution within the body for the enhancement of collagen-based scaffolds. We describe and compare existing approaches for the alignment of collagen with a sharper focus on electro-compaction. Additionally, various effective processes to further enhance electro-compacted collagen, such as crosslinking, the addition of filler materials, and post-alignment fabrication techniques, are discussed. Finally, current challenges and future directions for the electro-compaction of collagen are presented, providing guidance for the further development of collagenous scaffolds for bioengineering and nanotechnology.

Electrospun Collagen Scaffold Bio-Functionalized with Recombinant ICOS-Fc: An Advanced Approach to Promote Bone Remodelling. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14183780. [PMID: 36145925 PMCID: PMC9503128 DOI: 10.3390/polym14183780] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Revised: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
The treatment of osteoporotic fractures is a severe clinical issue, especially in cases where low support is provided, e.g., pelvis. New treatments aim to stimulate bone formation in compromised scenarios by using multifunctional biomaterials combined with biofabrication techniques to produce 3D structures (scaffolds) that can support bone formation. Bone’s extracellular matrix (ECM) is mainly composed of type I collagen, making this material highly desirable in bone tissue engineering applications, and its bioactivity can be improved by incorporating specific biomolecules. In this work, type I collagen membranes were produced by electrospinning showing a fibre diameter below 200 nm. An optimized one-step strategy allowed to simultaneously crosslink the electrospun membranes and bind ICOS-Fc, a biomolecule able to reversibly inhibit osteoclast activity. The post-treatment did not alter the ECM-like nanostructure of the meshes and the physicochemical properties of collagen. UV-Vis and TGA analyses confirmed both crosslinking and grafting of ICOS-Fc onto the collagen fibres. The preservation of the biological activity of grafted ICOS-Fc was evidenced by the ability to affect the migratory activity of ICOSL-positive cells. The combination of ICOS-Fc with electrospun collagen represents a promising strategy to design multifunctional devices able to boost bone regeneration in osteoporotic fractures.

Abstract
In this paper, we describe the use of 3D printed devices for both static and flow studies that contain electrospun collagen scaffolds and can accommodate transepithelial/transendothelial electrical resistance (TEER) measurements. Electrospinning was used to create the collagen scaffold, followed by an optimized 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide/N-Hydroxysuccinimide (EDC/NHS) cross-linking procedure to produce stable collagen fibers that are similar in size to fibers in vivo. LC/MS was used to study the leaching of solvent and NHS from the scaffold, with several rinsing steps being shown to eliminate the leaching and promote the culture of Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells on the scaffold. Both static and flow 2-part devices were successfully fabricated by 3D printing using either VeroClear or MED610 material (PolyJet printing) and assembling the scaffold between laser cut Teflon gaskets. The devices were designed to easily accommodate commonly used STX2 chopstick electrodes for TEER measurements. A detailed comparison was made between the use of collagen scaffolds vs other electrospun materials for cell culture. The collagen extracellular matrix model displayed a high barrier functionality for up to 7 days. In addition, a different 3D printed device with a collagen scaffold is described to incorporate continuous flow and replenishment of media under the cell layer in a manner that also enables periodic recording of TEER measurements. Overall, this work shows that the combination of biological ECM materials such as collagen into microfluidic devices that incorporate flow have great potential to form more realistic cell culture models in areas such as blood brain barrier research.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology enables the design of personalized scaffolds with tunable pore size and composition. Combining decellularization and 3D printing techniques provides the opportunity to fabricate scaffolds with high potential to mimic native tissue. The aim of this study is to produce novel decellularized bone extracellular matrix (dbECM)-reinforced composite-scaffold that can be used as a biomaterial for bone tissue engineering. Decellularized bone particles (dbPTs, ∼100 μm diameter) were obtained from rabbit femur and used as a reinforcement agent by mixing with gelatin (GEL) in different concentrations. 3D scaffolds were fabricated by using an extrusion-based bioprinter and crosslinking with microbial transglutaminase (mTG) enzyme, followed by freeze-drying to obtain porous structures. Fabricated 3D scaffolds were characterized morphologically, mechanically, and chemically. Furthermore, MC3T3-E1 mouse pre-osteoblast cells were seeded on the dbPTs reinforced GEL scaffolds (GEL/dbPTs) and cultured for 21 days to assess cytocompatibility and cell attachment. We demonstrate the 3D-printability of dbPTs-reinforced GEL hydrogels and the achievement of homogenous distribution of the dbPTs in the whole scaffold structure, as well as bioactivity and cytocompatibility of GEL/dbPTs scaffolds. It was shown that Young's modulus and degradation rate of scaffolds were enhanced with increasing dbPTs content. Multiphoton microscopy imaging displayed the interaction of cells with dbPTs, indicating attachment and proliferation of cells around the particles as well as into the GEL-particle hydrogels. Our results demonstrate that GEL/dbPTs hydrogel formulations have potential for bone tissue engineering.

A Biomimetic Electrospun Membrane Supports the Differentiation and Maturation of Kidney Epithelium from Human Stem Cells. Bioengineering (Basel) 2022; 9:bioengineering9050188.

Abstract
Podocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem (hiPS) cells are enabling studies of kidney development and disease. However, many of these studies are carried out in traditional tissue culture plates that do not accurately recapitulate the molecular and mechanical features necessary for modeling tissue- and organ-level functionalities. Overcoming these limitations requires the design and application of tunable biomaterial scaffolds. Silk fibroin is an attractive biomaterial due to its biocompatibility and versatility, which include its ability to form hydrogels, sponge-like scaffolds, and electrospun fibers and membranes appropriate for tissue engineering and biomedical applications. In this study, we show that hiPS cells can be differentiated into post-mitotic kidney glomerular podocytes on electrospun silk fibroin membranes functionalized with laminin. The resulting podocytes remain viable and express high levels of podocyte-specific markers consistent with the mature cellular phenotype. The resulting podocytes were propagated for at least two weeks, enabling secondary cell-based applications and analyses. This study demonstrates for the first time that electrospun silk fibroin membrane can serve as a supportive biocompatible platform for human podocyte differentiation and propagation. We anticipate that the results of this study will pave the way for the use of electrospun membranes and other biomimetic scaffolds for kidney tissue engineering, including the development of co-culture systems and organs-on-chips microphysiological devices.

Abstract
Electrospinning has emerged as a versatile and accessible technology for fabricating polymer fibers, particularly for biological applications. Natural polymers or biopolymers (including synthetically derivatized natural polymers) represent a promising alternative to synthetic polymers, as materials for electrospinning. Many biopolymers are obtained from abundant renewable sources, are biodegradable, and possess inherent biological functions. This review surveys recent literature reporting new fibers produced from emerging biopolymers, highlighting recent developments in the use of sulfated polymers (including carrageenans and glycosaminoglycans), tannin derivatives (condensed and hydrolyzed tannins, tannic acid), modified collagen, and extracellular matrix extracts. The proposed advantages of these biopolymer-based fibers, focusing on their biomedical applications, are also discussed to highlight the use of new and emerging biopolymers (or new modifications to well-established ones) to enhance or achieve new properties for electrospun fiber materials.

Abstract
Purpose Bone metastasis is one of the common causes of death relative to breast cancer. However, the evolvement of bone niche in cancer progression remains poorly understood. A three-dimensional (3D) engineered bone matrix was developed as an effective biomimetic model to explore the mechanism relative to bone cancer metastasis. Methods In the study, a 3D engineered bone matrix was developed via cell biomineralization templated by a biomimetic collagen template. The process of bone metastasis relative to breast cancer was investigated by co-culturing breast cancer MDA-MB-231-GFP cells with pre-osteogenic MC3T3-E1 cells on the 3D bone matrix. Results A typical bone matrix was obtained, where mineralized collagen fibers were packed into the bundle to form a 3D engineered bone matrix. As the cancer cells were invading along the way vertical to the alignment of mineralized collagen fiber, the bone matrix gradually became thinner, accompanied with the erosion of Col I and the loss of calcium and phosphorus. As a result, the disassembled structure of mineralized collagen fiber was observed, which may be attributed to osteolytic bone metastasis. Conclusion An engineered 3D bone-like matrix was successfully prepared via cell mineralization, which can act as a model for bone metastasis process. The study revealed mineralized collagen fiber disassembled at nanoscale relative to breast cancer cells.

Abstract
Fibrous biotextiles are very popular structural forms that are widely used in medical products and devices ranging from sutures, bandages, wound dressing, and patches to all kinds of artificial grafts such as ligaments, tendons, blood vessels, heart valves, and tissue engineered scaffolds. Blow-spinning is a recently developed technique that enables the large-scale and efficient production of ultrathin fibers with diameters ranging from micrometer to nanometer. In this study, the blow-spinning process and parameters were optimized to steadily fabricate collagen nanofibers by ejecting a collagen solution with constant airflow with precisely controlled diameter and alignment. Different from the electrospun collagen nanofibrous membrane, the blow-spun one was fluffy and spongy with high porosity. It was observed that the blow-spun collagen membrane could better maintain the fiber structure after chemical crosslinking in comparison with the electrospun membrane crosslinked in the same condition, which probably attributed to the good porosity and permeability of crosslinking agent within the membranes. The in vitro cell culture of Schwann cells on the blow-spun collagen nanofibrous spongy membrane showed its good biocompatibility for cell attachment, growth, and migration into the membrane, implying its potential in biomedical applications. Besides, there is no requirement for electroconductivity of the polymer solution and collector in blow-spinning. In brief, our results indicated that blow-spinning is an accessible and efficient technique to prepare nanofibers of synthetic and natural polymers, which has a great prospect in the large-scale production of biotextile medical devices and tissue engineered scaffolds. Impact statement Solution blow-spinning is a recently developed fiber fabrication technology with efficient and large-scale production. In this study, we successfully prepared collagen nanofibrous membrane with precisely controlled diameter and alignment by blow-spinning. The blow-spun collagen nanofibrous spongy membrane could better maintain the fiber structure after chemical crosslinking, which showed good biocompatibility for cell spreading and migration inward.

Abstract
The present work was aimed to produce a novel bioactive nanofiber (NFs) based on Ethyl cellulose (EC), Soy protein isolated (SPI), and containing Bitter orange peel extract (BOPE) by electrospinning technology. The EC/SPI NFs were formulated with different weight ratios of 1:1, 2:1, and 1:2 denoted as ES11, ES21, and ES12, respectively, and investigated by several analyses. Based on the obtained results, the maximum hydrogen interactions between these two polymers, ES11 NFs offered a uniform morphology without bead with the diameter of 185.33 nm as a result of the compatibility of the polymer solutions of EC and SPI. Moreover, appropriate thermal stability was presented along with more porosity (78%), maximum water vapor transmission rate (657 g/m2.24h), good tensile stress (6.12 MPa), and acceptable water contact angel (82.3°). Therefore, ES11 NFs were selected as the optimal sample for incorporation of the BOPE as the antibacterial and antioxidant agent. According to the antioxidant activity test, the highest concentration (20% wt) of this extract increased the antioxidant activity of NF around 64.7% and also inhibited the growth of pathogenic bacteria (S. areus, and E. coli). Therefore, the ES11 electrospun NFs containing 20% BOPE can be a beneficial system to increase the safety and quality of foods.

Abstract
Engineered cartilage derived from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) always fails to maintain the cartilaginous phenotype in the subcutaneous environment due to the ossification tendency. Vascular invasion is a prerequisite for endochondral ossification during the development of long bone. As an oral antitumor medicine, Inlyta (axitinib) possesses pronounced antiangiogenic activity, owing to the inactivation of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway. In this study, axitinib-loaded poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)/collagen nanofibrous membranes are fabricated by electrospinning for the first time. Rabbit-derived MSCs-engineered cartilage is encapsulated in the axitinib-loaded nanofibrous membrane and subcutaneously implanted into nude mice. The sustained and localized release of axitinib successfully inhibits vascular invasion, stabilizes cartilaginous phenotype, and helps cartilage maturation. RNA sequence further reveals that axitinib creates an avascular, hypoxic, and low immune response niche. Timp1 is remarkably upregulated in this niche, which probably plays a functional role in inhibiting the activity of matrix metalloproteinases and stabilizing the engineered cartilage. This study provides a novel strategy for stable subcutaneous chondrogenesis of mesenchymal stromal cells, which is also suitable for other medical applications, such as arthritis treatment, local treatment of tumors, and regeneration of other avascular tissues (cornea and tendon).

Abstract
The present study aspires towards fabricating core-sheath fibrous scaffolds by state-of-the-art pressurized gyration for bone tissue engineering applications. The core-sheath fibers comprising dual-phase poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) core and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) sheath are fabricated using a novel "co-axial" pressurized gyration method. Hydroxyapatite (HA) nanocrystals are embedded in the sheath of the fabricated scaffolds to improve the performance for application as a bone tissue regeneration material. The diameter of the fabricated fiber is 3.97 ± 1.31 µm for PCL-PVA/3%HA while pure PCL-PVA with no HA loading gives 3.03 ± 0.45 µm. Bead-free fiber morphology is ascertained for all sample groups. The chemistry, water contact angle and swelling behavior measurements of the fabricated core-sheath fibrous scaffolds indicate the suitability of the structures in cellular activities. Saos-2 bone osteosarcoma cells are employed to determine the biocompatibility of the scaffolds, wherein none of the scaffolds possess any cytotoxicity effect, while cell proliferation of 94% is obtained for PCL-PVA/5%HA fibers. The alkaline phosphatase activity results suggest the osteogenic activities on the scaffolds begin earlier than day 7. Overall, adaptations of co-axial pressurized gyration provides the flexibility to embed or encapsulate bioactive substances in core-sheath fiber assemblies and is a promising strategy for bone healing.

Abstract
Nanostructure provides a closer structural support approximation to native bone architecture for cells and further regulates cell's behavior, resulting in the formation of functional tissues. In this work, three engineering collagen templates with oriented fiber architectures were fabricated via electrospinning (Es), plastic compression and tensile (PCT), and dynamic shear stress (SS) methods. Under the observation of POM, SEM, AFM and TEM, the PCT-template and SS-template are packed with well-oriented nanofibers with the native collagen architecture of 67 nm D-periodicity, and the mechanical properties conferred to the templates are better than that of the Es-template. When mentioning the cell's behavior, MC3T3-E1 adhered to grow along the alignment of collagen fiber orientation when cultured on the PCT-template and SS-template. The SS-template with nano- and micro-ordered architecture guided cells to stretch their plasma along with the orientation of collagen fiber, produce more aligned Type I collagen fibers and promote significantly higher osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 than the PCT-template and Es-template. Overall, it is strongly argued the feasibility of hierarchical collagen fiber architectures for bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Electrospinning can be used to prepare nanofiber mats from diverse polymers, polymer blends, or polymers doped with other materials. Amongst this broad range of usable materials, biopolymers play an important role in biotechnological, biomedical, and other applications. However, several of them are water-soluble, necessitating a crosslinking step after electrospinning. While crosslinking with glutaraldehyde or other toxic chemicals is regularly reported in the literature, here, we concentrate on methods applying non-toxic or low-toxic chemicals, and enzymatic as well as physical methods. Making gelatin nanofibers non-water soluble by electrospinning them from a blend with non-water soluble polymers is another method described here. These possibilities are described together with the resulting physical properties, such as swelling behavior, mechanical strength, nanofiber morphology, or cell growth and proliferation on the crosslinked nanofiber mats. For most of these non-toxic crosslinking methods, the degree of crosslinking was found to be lower than for crosslinking with glutaraldehyde and other common toxic chemicals.

Abstract
Biopolymers formed into a fibrous morphology through electrospinning are of increasing interest in the field of biomedicine due to their intrinsic biocompatibility and biodegradability and their ability to be biomimetic to various fibrous structures present in animal tissues. However, their mechanical properties are often unsatisfactory and their processing may be troublesome. Thus, extensive research interest is focused on improving these qualities. This review article presents the selection of the recent advances in techniques aimed to improve the electrospinnability of various biopolymers (polysaccharides, polynucleotides, peptides, and phospholipids). The electrospinning of single materials, and the variety of co-polymers, with and without additives, is covered. Additionally, various crosslinking strategies are presented. Examples of cytocompatibility, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial properties are analyzed. Special attention is given to whey protein isolate as an example of a novel, promising, green material with good potential in the field of biomedicine. This review ends with a brief summary and outlook for the biomedical applicability of electrospinnable biopolymers.

Abstract
Collagen is a key component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in organs and tissues throughout the body and is used for many tissue engineering applications. Electrospinning of collagen can produce scaffolds in a wide variety of shapes, fiber diameters and porosities to match that of the native ECM. This systematic review aims to pool data from available manuscripts on electrospun collagen and tissue engineering to provide insight into the connection between source material, solvent, crosslinking method and functional outcomes. D-banding was most often observed in electrospun collagen formed using collagen type I isolated from calfskin, often isolated within the laboratory, with short solution solubilization times. All physical and chemical methods of crosslinking utilized imparted resistance to degradation and increased strength. Cytotoxicity was observed at high concentrations of crosslinking agents and when abbreviated rinsing protocols were utilized. Collagen and collagen-based scaffolds were capable of forming engineered tissues in vitro and in vivo with high similarity to the native structures.

Abstract
Tissue engineered scaffold was regarded as a promising approach instead of the autograft. In this study, small diameter electrospun collagen tubular scaffold with random continuous smooth nanofibers was successfully fabricated. However, the dissolution of collagen in concentrated aqueous (conc. aq.) acetic acid caused to the serious denaturation of collagen. A novel method ammonia treatment here was adopted which recovered the collagen triple helix structure according to the analysis of IR spectra. Further dehydrothermal (DHT) and glutaraldehyde (GTA) treatments were applied to introduce the crosslinks to improve the properties of collagen tube. The nanofibrous structure of collagen tube in a wet state was preserved by the crosslinking treatments. Swelling ratio and weight loss decreased by at least two times compared to those of the untreated collagen tube. Moreover, tensile strength was significantly enhanced by DHT treatment (about 0.0076 cN/dTex) and by GTA treatment (about 0.075 cN/dTex). In addition, the surface of crosslinked collagen tube kept the hydrophilic property. These results suggest that DHT and GTA treatments can be utilized to improve the properties of electrospun collagen tube which could become a suitable candidate for tissue engineered scaffold.

Abstract
Collagen is the major component of the extracellular matrix in human tissues and widely used in the fabrication of tissue engineered scaffolds for medical applications. However, these forms of collagen gels and films have limitations due to their inferior strength and mechanical performance and their relatively fast rate of degradation. A new form of continuous collagen yarn has recently been developed for potential usage in fabricating textile tissue engineering scaffolds. In this study, we prepared the continuous electrochemical aligned collagen yarns from acid-soluble collagen that was extracted from rat tail tendons (RTTs) using 0.25 M acetic acid. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy confirmed that the major component of the extracted collagen contained alpha 1 and alpha 2 chains and the triple helix structure of Type 1 collagen. The collagen solution was processed to monofilament yarns in continuous lengths by using a rotating electrode electrochemical compaction device. Exposing the non-crosslinked collagen yarns and the collagen yarns crosslinked with 1-ethyl-3-(-3-dimethyl-aminopropyl) carbodiimide hydrochloride to normal physiological hydrolytic degradation conditions showed that both yarns were able to maintain their tensile strength during the first 6 weeks of the study. Cardiosphere-derived cells showed significantly enhanced attachment and proliferation on the collagen yarns compared to synthetic polylactic acid filaments. Moreover, the cells were fully spread and covered the surface of the collagen yarns, which confirmed the superiority of collagen in terms of promoting cellular adhesion. The results of this work indicated that the aligned RTT collagen yarns are favorable for fabricating biotextile scaffolds and are encouraging for further studies of various textile structure for different tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Conductive electrospun nanofiber scaffold containing conductive polypyrrole (PPy) polymer was fabricated to accelerate healing of damaged tissues. In order to prepare these scaffolds, various weight percentages of polypyrrole (5, 10, 15, 20, 25%) relative to the polymers combination (chitosan, collagen, and polyethylene oxide) were used. The fabricated composite scaffolds were characterized using chemical, morphological, physio-mechanical, and biological analyses including; FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, electrical conductivity, tensile test, in vitro degradation, MTT Assay and cell culture. The polypyrrole particles were perfectly dispersed inside the nanofibers, and the fibers average diameter were reducing by increasing the polypyrrole content in the composites. The presence of polypyrrole in fibers enhanced their conductivity up to 164.274 × 10-3 s/m which is in the range of semi-conductive and conductive polymers. MTT and SEM analyses displayed that nanofibers composing 10% polypyrrole possess better cell adhesion, growth and proliferation properties comparing to other compositions. Furthermore, the suitable mechanical properties of scaffolds ideally fitted them for different kinds of tissue applications including skin, nerve, heart muscle, etc. Therefore, these fabricated conductive nanofiber scaffolds are particularly appropriate for employing in body parts with electrical signals such as cardiovascular, heart muscles, or nerves.

Abstract
Opportunely arranged micro/nano-scaled fibers represent an extremely attractive architecture for tissue engineering, as they offer an intrinsically porous structure, a high available surface, and an ideal microtopography for guiding cell migration. When fibers are made with naturally occurring polymers, matrices that closely mimic the architecture of the native extra-cellular matrix and offer specific chemical cues can be obtained. Along this track, electrospinning of collagen or gelatin is a typical and effective combination to easily prepare fibrous scaffolds with excellent properties in terms of biocompatibility and biomimicry, but an appropriate cross-linking strategy is required. Many common protocols involve the use of swelling solvents and can result in significant impairment of fibrous morphology and porosity. As a consequence, the efforts for processing gelatin into a fiber network can be vain, as a film-like morphology will be eventually presented to cells. However, this appears to be a frequently overlooked aspect. Here, the effect on fiber morphology of common cross-linking protocols was analyzed, and different strategies to improve the final morphology were evaluated (including alternative solvents, cross-linker concentration, mechanical constraint, and evaporation conditions). Finally, an optimized, fiber-preserving protocol based on carbodiimide (EDC) chemistry was defined.

Abstract
Electrospinning is a widely used technology for obtaining nanofibers from synthetic and natural polymers. In this study, electrospun mats from collagen (C), polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and a blend of the two (C-PET) were prepared and stabilized through a cross-linking process. The aim of this research was to prepare and characterize the nanofiber structure by Fourier-transform infrared with attenuated total reflectance spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR) in close correlation with dynamic vapor sorption (DVS). The studies indicated that C-PET nanofibrous mats shows improved mechanical properties compared to collagen samples. A correlation between morphological, structural and cytotoxic proprieties of the studied samples were emphasized and the results suggest that the prepared nanofiber mats could be a promising candidate for tissue-engineering applications, especially dermal applications.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is an alternative therapeutic intervention to repair or regenerate lost bone. This technique requires three essential components: stem cells that can differentiate into bone cells, growth factors that stimulate cell behavior for bone formation, and scaffolds that mimic the extracellular matrix. Among the various kinds of scaffolds, highly porous nanofibrous scaffolds are a potential candidate for supporting cell functions, such as adhesion, delivering growth factors, and forming new tissue. Various fabricating techniques for nanofibrous scaffolds have been investigated, including electrospinning, multi-axial electrospinning, and melt writing electrospinning. Although electrospun fiber fabrication has been possible for a decade, these fibers have gained attention in tissue regeneration owing to the possibility of further modifications of their chemical, biological, and mechanical properties. Recent reports suggest that post-modification after spinning make it possible to modify a nanofiber's chemical and physical characteristics for regenerating specific target tissues. The objectives of this review are to describe the details of recently developed fabrication and post-modification techniques and discuss the advanced applications and impact of the integrated system of nanofiber-based scaffolds in the field of bone tissue engineering. This review highlights the importance of nanofibrous scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The structure and properties of natural sheep casing and collagen films with various crosslinking treatments have been investigated in detail to develop satisfied artificial casings prepared from collagen. The sheep casing consists of large number of thick collagen fibers oriented at ±45° from longitudinal direction with high-density interwoven network structure. The structural feature of sheep casing gave the special mouthfeel of 'cracking bite' of sausages. Whereas, layered structure filled with fine collagen fibrils and large gaps in collagen film results in poor mechanical properties and higher swelling ratio in water. Furthermore, a degree of denaturation of collagen during extraction process also lead to poor mechanical properties. After glutaraldehyde (GTA) and dehydrothermal (DHT) treatments, the formation of crosslinking improved mechanical properties of collagen films significantly and the tensile strength and tensile modulus increased more than three times compared with those of untreated collagen film in wet before and after boiling. The swelling ratio of treated collagen films also decreased dramatically. No obvious effects on denaturation of collagen film after GTA treatment, but the degree of denaturation of DHT treated collagen film increased slightly.

Abstract
Coronary artery bypass grafts used to treat coronary artery disease often fail due to compliance mismatch. In this study, we have developed an experimental/computational approach to fabricate an acellular biomimetic hybrid tissue engineered vascular graft composed of alternating layers of electrospun porcine gelatin/polycaprolactone (PCL) and human tropoelastin/PCL blends with the goal of compliance-matching to rat abdominal aorta, while maintaining specific geometrical constraints. Polymeric blends at three different gelatin:PCL (G:PCL) and tropoelastin:PCL (T:PCL) ratios (80:20, 50:50 and 20:80) were mechanically characterized. The stress-strain data was used to develop predictive models, which were used as part of an optimization scheme that was implemented to determine the ratios of G:PCL and T:PCL and the thickness of the individual layers within a tissue engineered vascular graft that would compliance match a target compliance value. The hypocompliant, isocompliant, and hypercompliant grafts had target compliance values of 0.000256, 0.000568 and 0.000880 mmHg-1, respectively. Experimental validation of the optimization demonstrated that the hypercompliant and isocompliant grafts were not statistically significant from their respective target compliance values (p-value=0.37 and 0.89, respectively). The experimental compliance value of the hypocompliant graft was statistically significant than their target compliance value (p-value=0.047). We have successfully demonstrated a design optimization scheme that can be used to fabricate multilayered and biomimetic vascular grafts with targeted geometry and compliance.

Abstract
One potential porous scaffold material based on polyester waterborne polyurethane (PEUR) grafted with modified gelatin hydrolysate (GH) has been investigated in this research. First, the GH was modified with a silane coupling agent (KH550), and then the modified GH was mixed with pre-polymer emulsion of PEUR to obtain the PEUR grafted GH emulsion (PEUR-g-GH). The synthesized PEUR-g-GH emulsions were characterized by stability analysis and viscosity test. Moreover, the film-forming property of PEUR-g-GH has also been studied, and the PEUR-g-GH films were characterized regarding the water resistance, solvent resistance, mechanical properties, FTIR, AFM, SEM, DMA, TGA and contact angle testing. Finally, the bioactivity and biodegradation were investigated by soaking PEUR-g-GH scaffolds in simulated body fluid (SBF). The results indicated that the PEUR-g-GH emulsion has good stability, water resisting (the contact angle was over 90o), the PEUR-g-GH showed excellent film-forming, high storage modulus, good structural homogeneity and thermal stability (the temperature of maximum weight loss was over 350 °C). The freeze-dried sample showed porous structure, and the mutual crosslinking of layers can contribute to a good bearing capacity for scaffold. The SBF biodegradability revealed that the biodegradation rate and degree of films gradually increased with the content of GH increased. In addition, the cells on the material were markedly enhanced, and most of cells have proliferated and formed vesicles, which shown a good biocompatibility.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the titanium (Ti) implants coated with collagen type Ⅰ crosslinked using gamma-irrigation or glutaraldehyde (GA). The in vitro surface observations, quantification assay, and cell studies using human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were conducted. For in vivo experiments, the implants were divided into three groups and inserted into the rat tibias: control group (non-treated Ti implant), GA group (Ti implants coated with GA-crosslinked collagen) and 25 kGy group (Ti implants coated with gamma-radiation-crosslinked collagen at dose of 25 kGy). The animals were sacrificed at 4 weeks after implantation and the tissue sections were obtained. New bone volume (mm³) and bone-to-implant contact (BIC, %) within the region of interest (ROI) was measured. The in vitro results showed the highest osteogenic differentiation and levels of osteogenesis-related gene expressions in the 25 kGy group without cytotoxicity. The new bone volume of GA group was significantly higher than the control (p < 0.05). In the result of the BIC, the 25 kGy group was significantly higher than the control (p < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference between the experimental groups. Within the limitations of this study, Ti implant coated with gamma-radiation-crosslinked collagen has potential utility without side effects from chemical agents.
