Abstract
Periodontal disease is the most common type of oral disease. Periodontal bone defect is the clinical outcome of advanced periodontal disease, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Promoting periodontal tissue regeneration and repairing periodontal bone defects is the ultimate treatment goal for periodontal disease, but the means and methods are very limited. Hydrogels are a class of highly hydrophilic polymer networks, and their good biocompatibility has made them a popular research material in the field of oral medicine in recent years. This paper reviews the current mainstream types and characteristics of hydrogels, and summarizes the relevant basic research on hydrogels in promoting periodontal tissue regeneration and bone defect repair in recent years. The possible mechanisms of action and efficacy evaluation are discussed in depth, and the application prospects are also discussed.

Abstract
Nano-doped hollow fiber is currently receiving extensive attention due to its multifunctionality and booming development. However, the microfluidic fabrication of nano-doped hollow fiber in a simple, smooth, stable, continuous, well-controlled manner without system blockage remains challenging. In this study, we employ a microfluidic method to fabricate nano-doped hollow fiber, which not only makes the preparation process continuous, controllable, and efficient, but also improves the dispersion uniformity of nanoparticles. Hydrogel hollow fiber doped with carbon nanotubes is fabricated and exhibits superior electrical conductivity (15.8 S m-1), strong flexibility (342.9%), and versatility as wearable sensors for monitoring human motions and collecting physiological electrical signals. Furthermore, we incorporate iron tetroxide nanoparticles into fibers to create magnetic-driven micromotors, which provide trajectory-controlled motion and the ability to move through narrow channels due to their small size. In addition, manganese dioxide nanoparticles are embedded into the fiber walls to create self-propelled micromotors. When placed in a hydrogen peroxide environment, the micromotors can reach a top speed of 615 μm s-1 and navigate hard-to-reach areas. Our nano-doped hollow fiber offers a broad range of applications in wearable electronics and self-propelled machines and creates promising opportunities for sensors and actuators.

Abstract
In this study, we developed an alginate-based microparticle production process via sodium ruthenium(II) tris-bipyridyl dication (Ru)/ammonium persulfate (SPS)-mediated visible light crosslinking system using a microfluidic device. Microparticles were prepared by crosslinking phenolic-substituted alginate (AlgPh) and incorporated gelatin (GelPh) in an aqueous solution containing SPS, which flowed into an ambient immiscible liquid paraffin-containing Ru using coaxial double orifice microfluidic device. The hydrogel microparticles appeared with the desired geometries and dimensions under optimal conditions. The concentration of AlgPh and light intensity were the most critical parameters for harvesting spherical microparticles with homogeneous size distribution. The physical properties of the prepared AlgPh microparticles were characterized and compared with Alg-Ca microparticles. Cell viability and proliferation preserved on AlgPh/GelPh hydrogel surfaces. Also, encapsulated cells in microparticles were also viable and proliferated well over 13 days after encapsulation. In brief, the results proved the feasibility of fabricating AlgPh vehicles via Ru/SPS-mediated system and visible light irradiation as a simple and efficient three-dimensional platform, which are applicable for various tissue engineering and cell delivery purposes.

JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2024; 35:5. [PMID: 38206409 PMCID: PMC10784348 DOI: 10.1007/s10856-023-06768-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
Biodegradable microparticles are useful vehicles for the controlled release of bioactive molecules in drug delivery, tissue engineering and biopharmaceutical applications. We developed dexamethasone (Dex) encapsulation into tyramine-substituted hyaluronic acid microparticles (Dex-HA-Tyr Mp) mediated by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) crosslinking using a microfluidic device and infollowing crosslinked gelatin (Gela) with proanthocyanidin (PA) as a semi-confined bed hydrogel for the repair of sciatic tissue injury. It was found that the simultaneous use of Dex-HA-Tyr Mp and cross-linked Gela-PA hydrogel improved the physical properties of the hydrogel, including mechanical strength and degradability. The designed composite also provided a sustained release system for Dex delivery to the surrounding sites, demonstrating the applicability of the fabricated hydrogel composite for sciatic nerve tissue engineering and regeneration. The encapsulated cells were viable and showed adequate growth ability and morphogenesis during prolonged incubation in Gela-PA/HA-Tyr Mp hydrogel compared to control conditions. Interestingly, histological analysis revealed a significant increase in the number of axons in the injured sciatic nerve following treatment with Dex-HA-Tyr Mp and injectable Gela-PA hydrogel compared to other control groups. In conclusion, the results demonstrated that fabricated Dex-loaded MPs and injectable hydrogel from biomimetic components are suitable systems for sustained delivery of Dex with adequate biocompatibility and the approach may have potential therapeutic applications in peripheral nerve regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as a synthetic biopolymer has unique physicochemical properties to achieve an efficient drug carrier. In this study phenol-substituted polyvinyl alcohol (PVAPh) microparticle was made through a microfluidic system and peroxidase-mediated reaction in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and in following dexamethasone (Dex) release characteristics from this vehicle were elaborated for sustained drug delivery applications. RESULTS PVAPh was synthesized by esterification and amidation reactions respectively. Then, the synthesized PVAPh solution containing peroxidase and Dex flowed within the inner channel of the coaxial microfluidic device while liquid paraffin saturated with H2O2 flowed from the outer channel. The monodisperse microparticles were produced in a spherical shape with an average diameter of 160 μm. The Dex was successfully encapsulated in PVAPh MP and its sustained release profile was maintained for up to 7 days. It was found that exposure of Dex-loaded PVAPh MPs to subcultured mouse embryonic fibroblast 10T1/2 cells had no deleterious effects on cell viability, morphology and growth rate. Moreover, the sustained release of Dex and the high mechanical durability of PVAPh MPs suggest an excellent prospect for the synthesized PVAPh and the developed method as a biocompatible carrier required for drug delivery and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
We developed insulin loaded biomimetic microsphere by laccase-mediated crosslinking using a microfluidic device in the water-in-oil emulsion system as an injectable vehicle for the repair of sciatic tissue. Aqueous polymeric solution of phenol-substituted hyaluronic acid (HAPh) and collagen (ColPh) containing insulin and laccase flowed from the inner channel into oil flow within an outer channel which leads formation of hydrogel microsphere. The physical properties of prepared specimens including swelling rate, mechanical resistance and the prolonged release rate of microspheres proved applicability of fabricated vehicles for tissue engineering and drug delivery systems. The growth profile and behavior of cells in microspheres indicated cytocompatibility of the method and prepared vehicles for microtissue development. Histopathological examination revealed a significant increase in axonal regeneration, and remyelination process in injured sciatic nerve following treatment with HAPh/ColPh microspheres containing insulin compared to control groups. Also, the functional characteristic of sciatic tissue showed that the presence of biomimetic microsphere and insulin simultaneously had improved sciatic tissue functions including functional sciatic index (SFI) values, reaction to hot plate and muscle weight of rats. In summary, the results proved that composite biomimetic microspheres containing insulin effectively improved nerve regeneration in the rat model.

Abstract
Carbon nanotube (CNT) and gelatin (Gela) molecules are effective substrates in promoting engineered cardiac tissue functions. This study developed a microfluidic-based encapsulation process for biomimetic hydrogel microcapsule fabrication. The hydrogel microcapsule was produced through a coaxial double orifice microfluidic technique and a water-in-oil emulsion system in two sequential processes. The phenol (Ph) substituted Gela (Gela-Ph) and CNT (CNT-Ph), respectively as cell-adhesive and electrically conductive substrates were incorporated in hyaluronic acid (HA)-based hydrogel through laccase-mediated crosslinking. The Cardiomyocyte-enclosing microcapsule fabricated and cellular survival, function, and possible difference in the biological activity of encapsulated cells within micro vehicles were investigated. The coaxial microfluidic method and Lac-mediated crosslinking reaction resulted in spherical vehicle production in 183 μm diameter at 500 capsules/min speed. The encapsulation process did not affect cellular viability and harvested cells from microcapsule proliferated well likewise subcultured cells in tissue culture plate. The biophysical properties of the designed hydrogel, including mechanical strength, swelling, biodegradability and electroconductivity upregulated significantly for hydrogels decorated covalently with Gela-Ph and CNT-Ph. The tendency of the microcapsule for the spheroid formation of cardiomyocytes inside the proposed microcapsule occurred 3 days after encapsulation. Interestingly, immobilized Gela-Ph and CNT-Ph promote cellular growth and specific cardiac markers. Overall, the microfluidic-based encapsulation technology and synthesized biomimetic substrates with electroconductive properties demonstrate desirable cellular adhesion, proliferation, and cardiac functions for engineering cardiac tissue.
