Abstract
Tissue engineering shows promise in repairing extensive bone defects. The promotion of proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) by biological scaffolds has a significant impact on bone regeneration outcomes. In this study we used an injectable hydrogel, known as aminated mesoporous silica gel composite hydrogel (MSNs-NH2@GelMA), loaded with a natural drug, processed pyritum (PP), to promote healing of bone defects. The mechanical properties of the composite hydrogel were significantly superior to those of the blank hydrogel. In vitro experiments revealed that the composite hydrogel stimulated the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, and significantly increased the expression of type I collagen (Col 1), runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx 2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN). In vivo experiments showed that the composite hydrogel promoted the generation of new bones. These findings provide evidence that the composite hydrogel pyritum-loaded holds promise as a biomaterial for bone repair.

[PMID: 38255991 PMCID: PMC10815119 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020913] [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: 12/10/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Deferoxamine (DFO) is a water-soluble iron chelator used pharmacologically for the management of patients with transfusional iron overload. However, DFO is not cell-permeable and has a short plasma half-life, which necessitates lengthy parenteral administration with an infusion pump. We previously reported the synthesis of chitosan (CS) nanoparticles for sustained slow release of DFO. In the present study, we developed solid dispersions and nanoparticles of a carboxymethyl water-soluble chitosan derivative (CMCS) for improved DFO encapsulation and release. CS dispersions and nanoparticles with DFO have been prepared by ironical gelation using sodium triphosphate (TPP) and were examined for comparison purposes. The successful presence of DFO in CMCS polymeric dispersions and nanoparticles was confirmed through FTIR measurements. Furthermore, the formation of CMCS nanoparticles led to inclusion of DFO in an amorphous state, while dispersion of DFO in the polymeric matrix led to a decrease in its crystallinity according to X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results. An in vitro release assay indicated sustained release of DFO from CS and CMCS nanoparticles over 48 h and 24 h, respectively. Application of CMCS-DFO dispersions to murine RAW 264.7 macrophages or human HeLa cervical carcinoma cells triggered cellular responses to iron deficiency. These were exemplified in the induction of the mRNA encoding transferrin receptor 1, the major iron uptake protein, and the suppression of ferritin, the iron storage protein. Our data indicate that CMCS-DFO nanoparticles release bioactive DFO that causes effective iron chelation in cultured cells.

Abstract
Nanoporous materials are categorized as microporous (pore sizes 0.2-2 nm), mesoporous (pore sizes 2-50 nm), and macroporous (pore sizes 50-1000 nm). Mesoporous silica (MS) has gained a significant interest due to its notable characteristics, including organized pore networks, specific surface areas, and the ability to be integrated in a variety of morphologies. Recently, MS has been widely accepted by range of manufacturer and as drug carrier. Moreover, silica nanoparticles containing mesopores, also known as mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), have attracted widespread attention in additive manufacturing (AM). AM commonly known as three-dimensional printing is the formalized rapid prototyping (RP) technology. AM techniques, in comparison to conventional methods, aid in reducing the necessity for tooling and allow versatility in product and design customization. There are generally several types of AM processes reported including VAT polymerization (VP), powder bed fusion (PBF), sheet lamination (SL), material extrusion (ME), binder jetting (BJ), direct energy deposition (DED), and material jetting (MJ). Furthermore, AM techniques are utilized in fabrication of various classified fields such as architectural modeling, fuel cell manufacturing, lightweight machines, medical, and fabrication of drug delivery systems. The review concisely elaborates on applications of mesoporous silica as versatile material in fabrication of various AM-based pharmaceutical products with an elaboration on various AM techniques to reduce the knowledge gap.

Abstract
Periodontitis, the sixth most prevalent epidemic disease globally, profoundly impacts oral aesthetics and masticatory functionality. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), an oxygen-dependent transcriptional activator, has emerged as a pivotal regulator in periodontal tissue and alveolar bone metabolism, exerts critical functions in angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, energy metabolism, and cell fate determination. Numerous essential phenotypes regulated by HIF are intricately associated with bone metabolism in periodontal tissues. Extensive investigations have highlighted the central role of HIF and its downstream target genes and pathways in the coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Within this concise perspective, we comprehensively review the cellular phenotypic alterations and microenvironmental dynamics linking HIF to periodontitis. We analyze current research on the HIF pathway, elucidating its impact on bone repair and regeneration, while unraveling the involved cellular and molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, we briefly discuss the potential application of targeted interventions aimed at HIF in the field of bone tissue regeneration engineering. This review expands our biological understanding of the intricate relationship between the HIF gene and bone angiogenesis in periodontitis and offers valuable insights for the development of innovative therapies to expedite bone repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Silencing genes using small interfering (si) RNA is a promising strategy for treating cancer. However, the curative effect of siRNA is severely constrained by low serum stability and cell membrane permeability. Therefore, improving the delivery efficiency of siRNA for cancer treatment is a research hotspot. Recently, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have emerged as bright delivery vehicles for nucleic acid drugs. A comprehensive understanding of the design of MSN-based vectors is crucial for the application of siRNA in cancer therapy. We discuss several surface-functionalized MSNs' advancements as effective siRNA delivery vehicles in this paper. The advantages of using MSNs for siRNA loading regarding considerations of different shapes, various options for surface functionalization, and customizable pore sizes are highlighted. We discuss the recent investigations into strategies that efficiently improve cellular uptake, facilitate endosomal escape, and promote cargo dissociation from the MSNs for enhanced intracellular siRNA delivery. Also, particular attention was paid to the exciting progress made by combining RNAi with other therapies to improve cancer therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
Recent advances in our understanding of hypoxia and hypoxia-mediated mechanisms shed light on the critical implications of the hypoxic stress on cellular behavior. However, tools emulating hypoxic conditions (i.e., low oxygen tensions) for research are limited and often suffer from major shortcomings, such as lack of reliability and off-target effects, and they usually fail to recapitulate the complexity of the tissue microenvironment. Fortunately, the field of biomaterials is constantly evolving and has a central role to play in the development of new technologies for conducting hypoxia-related research in several aspects of biomedical research, including tissue engineering, cancer modeling, and modern drug screening. In this perspective, we provide an overview of several strategies that have been investigated in the design and implementation of biomaterials for simulating or inducing hypoxic conditions-a prerequisite in the stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), a master regulator of the cellular responses to low oxygen. To this end, we discuss various advanced biomaterials, from those that integrate hypoxia-mimetic agents to artificially induce hypoxia-like responses, to those that deplete oxygen and consequently create either transient (<1 day) or sustained (>1 day) hypoxic conditions. We also aim to highlight the advantages and limitations of these emerging biomaterials for biomedical applications, with an emphasis on cancer research.

Abstract
Bone, like most organs, has the ability to heal naturally and can be repaired slowly when it is slightly injured. However, in the case of bone defects caused by diseases or large shocks, surgical intervention and treatment of bone substitutes are needed, and drugs are actively matched to promote osteogenesis or prevent infection. Oral administration or injection for systemic therapy is a common way of administration in clinic, although it is not suitable for the long treatment cycle of bone tissue, and the drugs cannot exert the greatest effect or even produce toxic and side effects. In order to solve this problem, the structure or carrier simulating natural bone tissue is constructed to control the loading or release of the preparation with osteogenic potential, thus accelerating the repair of bone defect. Bioactive materials provide potential advantages for bone tissue regeneration, such as physical support, cell coverage and growth factors. In this review, we discuss the application of bone scaffolds with different structural characteristics made of polymers, ceramics and other composite materials in bone regeneration engineering and drug release, and look forward to its prospect.

Germline stem cells (GSCs) are the only cell population capable of passing genetic information to offspring, making them attractive targets in reproductive biology and fertility research. However, it is generally more difficult to introduce exogenous biomolecules into GSCs than other cell types, impeding the exploration and manipulation of these cells for biomedical purposes. Herein, semiconductor polymer dots (Pdots)-based nanocomplex Pdot-siRNA is developed and achieves effective knockdown of target genes in female germline stem cells (FGSCs). Advantage of high fluorescence brightness of Pdots is taken for comprehensive investigation of their cellular uptake, intracellular trafficking, and exocytosis in FGSCs. Importantly, Pdots show excellent biocompatibility and minimally disturb the differentiation of FGSCs. Intracellular Pdots escape from the lysosomes and undergo active exocytosis, which makes them ideal nanocarriers for bioactive cargos. Moreover, Pdot-siRNA can penetrate into 3D ovarian organoids derived from FGSCs and down-regulate the expression levels of target genes. This study investigates the interface between a type of theranostic nanoparticles and FGSCs for the first time and sheds light on the manipulation and medical application of FGSCs.

Abstract
The process of repairing significant bone defects requires the recruitment of a considerable number of cells for osteogenesis-related activities, which implies the consumption of a substantial amount of oxygen and nutrients. Therefore, the limited supply of nutrients and oxygen at the defect site is a vital constraint that affects the regenerative effect, which is closely related to the degree of a well-established vascular network. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α), which is an essential transcription factor activated in hypoxic environments, plays a vital role in vascular network construction. HIF-1α, which plays a central role in regulating cartilage and bone formation, induces vascular invasion and differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells to promote and maintain extracellular matrix production by mediating the adaptive response of cells to changes in oxygen levels. However, the application of HIF-1α in bone tissue engineering is still controversial. As such, clarifying the function of HIF-1α in regulating the bone regeneration process is one of the urgent issues that need to be addressed. This review provides insight into the mechanisms of HIF-1α action in bone regeneration and related recent advances. It also describes current strategies for applying hypoxia induction and hypoxia mimicry in bone tissue engineering, providing theoretical support for the use of HIF-1α in establishing a novel and feasible bone repair strategy in clinical settings.

Abstract
It has been confirmed that substantial vascularization is an effective strategy to heal large-scale bone defects in the field of bone tissue engineering. The local application of deferoxamine (DFO) is among the most common and effective methods for promoting the formation of blood vessels, although its short half-life in plasma, rapid clearance, and poor biocompatibility limit its therapeutic suitability. Herein, zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) was selected as a vehicle to extend the half-life of DFO. In the present study, a nano DFO-loaded ZIF-8 (DFO@ZIF-8) drug delivery system was established to promote angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling. The nanoparticles were characterized, and their drug loading efficiency was examined to confirm the successful synthesis of nano DFO@ZIF-8. Additionally, due to the sustained release of DFO and Zn2+, DFO@ZIF-8 NPs were able to promote angiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) culture and osteogenesis in bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) in vitro. Furthermore, the DFO@ZIF-8 NPs promoted vascularization by enhancing the expression of type H vessels and a vascular network. The DFO@ZIF-8 NPs promoted bone regeneration in vivo by increasing the expression of OCN and BMP-2. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that the PI3K-AKT-MMP-2/9 and HIF-1α pathways were upregulated by DFO@ZIF-8 NPs in HUVECs, ultimately leading to the formation of new blood vessels. In addition, the mechanism by which DFO@ZIF-8 NPs promoted bone regeneration was potentially related to the synergistic effect of angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling and Zn2+-mediation of the MAPK pathway. Taken together, DFO@ZIF-8 NPs, which were demonstrated to have low cytotoxicity and excellent coupling of angiogenesis and osteogenesis, represent a promising strategy for the reconstruction of critical-sized bone defects.

Abstract
Commonly utilized techniques for healing alveolar bone destruction such as the use of growth factors, suffering from short half-life, application difficulties, and the ability to achieve bioactivity only in the presence of high doses of growth factor. The sustained release of growth factors through a scaffold-based delivery system offers a promising and innovative tool in dentistry. Furthermore, it is suggested to guide the host response by using antimicrobials together with growth factors to prevent recovery and achieve ideal regeneration. Herein, the aim was to prepare and an in vitro - in vivo evaluation of bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) and clindamycin phosphate (CDP) loaded polymeric nanoparticles, and their loading into the alginate-chitosan polyelectrolyte complex film or alloplastic graft to accelerate hard tissue regeneration. PLGA nanoparticles containing CDP and BMP-7, separately or together, were prepared using the double emulsion solvent evaporation technique. Through in vitro assays, it was revealed that spherical particles were homogeneously distributed in the combination formulations, and sustained release could be achieved for >12 weeks with all formulations. Also, results from the micro-CT and histopathological analyses indicated that CDP and BMP-7 loaded nanoparticle-film formulations were more effective in treatment than the nanoparticle loaded grafts.

Abstract
With advances in nanotechnology, nanoparticles have come to be regarded as carriers of therapeutic agents and have been widely studied to overcome various diseases in the biomedical field. Among these particles, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) have been investigated as potential nanocarriers to deliver drug molecules to various target sites in the body. This review introduces the physicochemical properties of MSNs and synthesis procedures of MSN-based nanoplatforms. Moreover, we focus on updating biomedical applications of MSNs as a carrier of therapeutic or diagnostic cargo and review clinical trials using silica-nanoparticle-based systems. Herein, on the one hand, we pay attention to the pharmaceutical advantages of MSNs, including nanometer particle size, high surface area, and porous structures, thus enabling efficient delivery of high drug-loading content. On the other hand, we look through biosafety and toxicity issues associated with MSN-based platforms. Based on many reports so far, MSNs have been widely applied to construct tissue engineering platforms as well as treat various diseases, including cancer, by surface functionalization or incorporation of stimuli-responsive components. However, even with the advantageous aspects that MSNs possess, there are still considerations, such as optimizing physicochemical properties or dosage regimens, regarding use of MSNs in clinics. Progress in synthesis procedures and scale-up production as well as a thorough investigation into the biosafety of MSNs would enable design of innovative and safe MSN-based platforms in biomedical fields.

Abstract
Bone damage may be triggered by a variety of factors, and the damaged area often requires a bone graft. Bone tissue engineering can serve as an alternative strategy for repairing large bone defects. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), the progenitor cells of connective tissue, have become an important tool for tissue engineering due to their ability to differentiate into a variety of cell types. The precise regulation of the growth and differentiation of the stem cells used for bone regeneration significantly affects the efficiency of this type of tissue engineering. During the process of osteogenic induction, the dynamics and function of localized mitochondria are altered. These changes may also alter the microenvironment of the therapeutic stem cells and result in mitochondria transfer. Mitochondrial regulation not only affects the induction/rate of differentiation, but also influences its direction, determining the final identity of the differentiated cell. To date, bone tissue engineering research has mainly focused on the influence of biomaterials on phenotype and nuclear genotype, with few studies investigating the role of mitochondria. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of researches into the role of mitochondria in MSCs differentiation and critical analysis regarding smart biomaterials that are able to "programme" mitochondria modulation was proposed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: : • This review proposed the precise regulation of the growth and differentiation of the stem cells used to seed bone regeneration. • This review addressed the dynamics and function of localized mitochondria during the process of osteogenic induction and the effect of mitochondria on the microenvironment of stem cells. • This review summarized biomaterials which affect the induction/rate of differentiation, but also influences its direction, determining the final identity of the differentiated cell through the regulation of mitochondria.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is a comprehensive process that involves different stages, and various growth factors (GFs) play crucial roles in the entire process. GFs are currently widely used in clinical settings to promote bone repair; however, the direct application of GFs is often limited by their fast degradation and short local residual time. Additionally, GFs are expensive, and their use may carry risks of ectopic osteogenesis and potential tumor formation. Nanomaterials have recently shown great promise in delivering GFs for bone regeneration, as they can protect fragile GFs and control their release. Moreover, functional nanomaterials can directly activate endogenous GFs, modulating the regeneration process. This review provides a summary of the latest advances in using nanomaterials to deliver exogenous GFs and activate endogenous GFs to promote bone regeneration. We also discuss the potential for synergistic applications of nanomaterials and GFs in bone regeneration, along with the challenges and future directions that need to be addressed.

Abstract
Degradable polymer matrices and porous scaffolds provide powerful mechanisms for passive, sustained release of drugs relevant to the treatment of a broad range of diseases and conditions. Growing interest is in active control of pharmacokinetics tailored to the needs of the patient via programmable engineering platforms that include power sources, delivery mechanisms, communication hardware, and associated electronics, most typically in forms that require surgical extraction after a period of use. Here we report a light-controlled, self-powered technology that bypasses key disadvantages of these systems, in an overall design that is bioresorbable. Programmability relies on the use of an external light source to illuminate an implanted, wavelength-sensitive phototransistor to trigger a short circuit in an electrochemical cell structure that includes a metal gate valve as its anode. Consequent electrochemical corrosion eliminates the gate, thereby opening an underlying reservoir to release a dose of drugs by passive diffusion into surrounding tissue. A wavelength-division multiplexing strategy allows release to be programmed from any one or any arbitrary combination of a collection of reservoirs built into an integrated device. Studies of various bioresorbable electrode materials define the key considerations and guide optimized choices in designs. In vivo demonstrations of programmed release of lidocaine adjacent the sciatic nerves in rat models illustrate the functionality in the context of pain management, an essential aspect of patient care that could benefit from the results presented here.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is a vital biological process involving blood vessels forming from pre-existing vascular systems. This process contributes to various physiological activities, including embryonic development, hair growth, ovulation, menstruation, and the repair and regeneration of damaged tissue. On the other hand, it is essential in treating a wide range of pathological diseases, such as cardiovascular and ischemic diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, malignancies, ophthalmic and retinal diseases, and other chronic conditions. These diseases and disorders are frequently treated by regulating angiogenesis by utilizing a variety of pro-angiogenic or anti-angiogenic agents or molecules by stimulating or suppressing this complicated process, respectively. Nevertheless, many traditional angiogenic therapy techniques suffer from a lack of ability to achieve the intended therapeutic impact because of various constraints. These disadvantages include limited bioavailability, drug resistance, fast elimination, increased price, nonspecificity, and adverse effects. As a result, it is an excellent time for developing various pro- and anti-angiogenic substances that might circumvent the abovementioned restrictions, followed by their efficient use in treating disorders associated with angiogenesis. In recent years, significant progress has been made in different fields of medicine and biology, including therapeutic angiogenesis. Around the world, a multitude of research groups investigated several inorganic or organic nanoparticles (NPs) that had the potential to effectively modify the angiogenesis processes by either enhancing or suppressing the process. Many studies into the processes behind NP-mediated angiogenesis are well described. In this article, we also cover the application of NPs to encourage tissue vascularization as well as their angiogenic and anti-angiogenic effects in the treatment of several disorders, including bone regeneration, peripheral vascular disease, diabetic retinopathy, ischemic stroke, rheumatoid arthritis, post-ischemic cardiovascular injury, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, gene delivery-based angiogenic therapy, protein delivery-based angiogenic therapy, stem cell angiogenic therapy, and diabetic retinopathy, cancer that may benefit from the behavior of the nanostructures in the vascular system throughout the body. In addition, the accompanying difficulties and potential future applications of NPs in treating angiogenesis-related diseases and antiangiogenic therapies are discussed.

J Control Release 2022; 350:789-802. [PMID: 35961472 DOI: 10.1016/j.jconrel.2022.08.006] [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: 03/16/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is characterized by pathological angiogenesis and associated inflammation in the retina and is the leading cause of childhood blindness. MiRNA-223 (miR-223) drives microglial polarization toward the anti-inflammatory phenotype and offers a therapeutic approach to suppress inflammation and consequently pathological neovascularization. However, miRNA-based therapy is hindered by the low stability and non-specific cell-targeting ability of delivery systems. In the present study, we developed folic acid-chitosan (FA-CS)-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (PMSN) loaded with miR-223 to regulate retinal microglial polarization. The FA-CS/PMSN/miR-223 nanoparticles exhibited high stability and loading efficiency, achieved targeted delivery, and successfully escaped from lysosomes. In cultured microglial cells, treatment with FA-CS/PMSN/miR-223 nanoparticles upregulated the anti-inflammatory gene YM1/2 and IL-4RA, and downregulated the proinflammatory genes iNOS, IL-1β, and IL-6. Notably, in a mouse oxygen-induced retinopathy model of ROP, intravitreally injected FA-CS/PMSN/miR-223 nanoparticles (1 μg) decreased the retinal neovascular area by 52.6%. This protective effect was associated with the reduced and increased levels of pro-inflammatory (M1) and anti-inflammatory (M2) cytokines, respectively. Collectively, these findings demonstrate that FA-CS/PMSN/miR-223 nanoparticles provide an effective therapeutic strategy for the treatment of ROP by modulating the miR-223-mediated microglial polarization to the M2 phenotype.

Abstract
The dual delivery platforms used in bone tissue engineering provide supplementary bioactive compounds that include distinct medicines and growth factors thereby aiding enhanced bone regeneration. The delivery of these compounds can be adjusted for a short or prolonged time based on the requirement by altering various parameters of the carrier platform. The platforms thus used are fabricated to mimic the niche of the bone microenvironment, either in the form of porous 3D structures, microspheres, or films. Thus, this review article focuses on the concept of dual drug delivery platform and its importance, classification of various platforms for dual drug delivery specific to bone tissue engineering, and finally highlights the foresight into the future direction of these techniques for better clinical applications.

Abstract
The present review details a chronological description of the events that took place during the development of mesoporous materials, their different synthetic routes and their use as drug delivery systems. The outstanding textural properties of these materials quickly inspired their translation to the nanoscale dimension leading to mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). The different aspects of introducing pharmaceutical agents into the pores of these nanocarriers, together with their possible biodistribution and clearance routes, would be described here. The development of smart nanocarriers that are able to release a high local concentration of the therapeutic cargo on-demand after the application of certain stimuli would be reviewed here, together with their ability to deliver the therapeutic cargo to precise locations in the body. The huge progress in the design and development of MSNs for biomedical applications, including the potential treatment of different diseases, during the last 20 years will be collated here, together with the required work that still needs to be done to achieve the clinical translation of these materials. This review was conceived to stand out from past reports since it aims to tell the story of the development of mesoporous materials and their use as drug delivery systems by some of the story makers, who could be considered to be among the pioneers in this area.

Abstract
Bone tissue destruction leads to severe pain, physical flaws, and loss of motility. Bone repair using biocompatible and osteo-inductive scaffolds is regarded as a viable and potential therapeutic approach. However, for large-scale bone regeneration, oxygen and nutrient supply have become limiting factors. Further, a considerable need exists for recruited cell activities and blood vessel growth. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling pathways induced by hypoxia are involved in angiogenesis and osteogenesis. As an important transcription factor, HIF-1 functions by modulating vital genes, such as VEGF, PDK1, and EPO, and is a crucial regulator that influences the final fate of bone regeneration. Collectively, to achieve better osteogenesis results, the in-depth molecular mechanisms that underpin the links between materials, cells, and HIF signaling pathways must be determined. This review aimed to provide an in-depth insight into recent progress in HIF-regulated bone regeneration. Hypoxia and cellular oxygen-sensing mechanisms and their correlations with osteogenesis were determined, and recent studies on hypoxia-inducing and hypoxia-mimicking strategies were briefly described. Finally, the potential applications of HIF signaling in bone regeneration were highlighted. This review provides theoretical support for establishing a novel and viable bone repair strategy in the clinic by harnessing HIF signaling.

Abstract
Osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling processes play a crucial role in bone regeneration. Here, electric field induced aligned nanofiber layers with tunable thickness were coated on the surface of pore walls inside the deferoxamine (DFO)-laden silk fibroin (SF) and hydroxyapatite (HA) composite scaffolds to regulate the release of DFO to control vascularization dynamically. Longer electric field treatments resulted in gradually thickening layers to reduce the release rate of DFO where the released amount of DFO decreased gradually from 84% to 63% after 28 days. Besides the osteogenic capacity of HA, the changeable release of DFO brought different angiogenic behaviors in bone regeneration process, which provided a desirable niche with osteogenic and angiogenic cues. Anisotropic cues were introduced to facilitate cell migration inside the scaffolds. Changeable cytokine secretion from endothelial cells cultured in the different scaffolds revealed the regulation of cell responses related to vascularization in vitro. Peak expression of angiogenic factors appeared at days 7, 21 and 35 for endothelial cells cultured in the scaffolds with different silk nanofier layers, suggesting the dynamical regulation of angiogenesis. Although all of the scaffolds had the same silk and HA composition, in vitro cell studies indicated different osteogenic capacities for the scaffolds, suggesting that the regulation of DFO release also influenced osteogenesis outcomes in vitro. In vivo, the best bone regeneration occurred in defects treated with the composite scaffolds that exhibited the best osteogenic capacity in vitro. Using a rat bone defect model, healing was achieved within 12 weeks, superior to those treated with previous SF-HA composite matrices. Controlling angiogenic properties of bone biomaterials dynamically is an effective strategy to improve bone regeneration capacity. Anisotropic silk nanofiber layers with tunable thickness control the sustained release of DFO dynamically. Dynamical regulation of angiogenesis was achieved in bone regeneration process through tuning the release behaviors of DFO. Significantly improved bone regeneration through the synergistic effect of optimal vascularization and osteogenesis.

Abstract
Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a powerful method to reconstruct segmented bone defects in the extremities. However, the main shortcoming of DO is the time-consuming consolidation period. To shorten the consolidation process, two biocompatible inorganic ions, strontium and silicone, were applied to design a biocompatible material to enhance bone mineralization ability during DO. In the present study, we integrated strontium into a one-pot synthesis of mesoporous silica nanoparticles to obtain strontium-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles characterized by a homogeneous spherical morphology and uniform ion-releasing dynamics. This dual-ion releasing osteogenic and angiogenic drug delivery system was investigated to accelerate mineralization in DO. Osteogenesis was promoted by activation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, while bone resorption was inhibited by reduction of the osteoclastogenic factor RANKL/OPG. In addition, angiogenesis may have been enhanced indirectly by secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from bone marrow stem cells. Therefore, strontium-doped mesoporous silica nanoparticles could be a potential biomaterial candidate for accelerating consolidation during DO.

Abstract
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble compound widely known for vision health. Highly variable reports on its effects on bone health have necessitated further research to truly understand its role on bone cell proliferation. Retinol, one bioactive form of vitamin A, is incorporated into synthetic bone graft scaffolds for low load-bearing clinical bone treatment. The objective of this work is to understand the effects of retinol on osteoblast and osteoclast cells when embedded within calcium phosphate matrices, including interconnected porous 3D printed tricalcium phosphate scaffolds. Results show that hydrophobic retinol can be released from bone scaffolds when a combination of biodegradable polymers, polycaprolactone and polyethylene glycol, are employed as drug carriers. The release of retinol in vitro can support a 20 ± 1% increase in osteoblast (bone-forming) cell proliferation with proper cell adhesion and filopodial extensions. Osteoclast cell morphology is necrosed and torn with a reduction in proliferation at approximately 6 ± 1% when retinol is present. In addition, inhibition of osteoclastic resorption pit bays is noted using scanning electron microscopy. With the scaffolds' round pore interconnectivity facilitating retinol release, this system can provide an alternative to traditional bone grafts while additionally supporting bone healing through enhanced osteoblast cell proliferation and inhibition of osteoclast resorption activity.

SBA-15 Mesoporous Silica as Delivery Vehicle for rhBMP-2 Bone Morphogenic Protein for Dental Applications. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12050822. [PMID: 35269309 PMCID: PMC8912683 DOI: 10.3390/nano12050822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2022] [Revised: 02/20/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
(1) Background: A proposed approach to promote periodontal tissue regeneration in cases of peri-implantitis is the local administration of growth factors at the implant site. Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rh-BMP-2) can effectively promote bone regeneration and osseointegration and the development of appropriate carriers for its delivery is of paramount importance. The aim of the present study was to develop SBA-15 mesoporous nanoparticles (MSNs) with varying porosity, evaluate their biocompatibility with human Periodontal Ligament Cells (hPDLCs) and to investigate their effectiveness as carriers of rh-BMP-2. (2) Methods: SBA-15 type mesoporous silicas were synthesized via sol-gel reaction. The calcined SBA-15 samples were characterized by N2 porosimetry, Fourier transform-infrared spectrometry (FTIR), Scanning (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Rh-BMP-2 loading and release kinetics were evaluated by UV spectroscopy. (3) Results: MSNs presented hexagonally arranged, tubular pores of varying length and diameter. Slightly higher loading capacity was achieved for SBA-15 with large pores that presented good hemocompatibility. MTT assay revealed no cytotoxic effects for all the tested materials, while SBA-15 with large pores induced a significant upregulation of cell viability at day 5. (4) Conclusions: SBA-15 MSNs may prove a valuable delivery platform towards the effective release of bone-inducing proteins.

Abstract
Ceramic (nano)materials are promising materials for bone regeneration applications. The addition of bioinorganics such as strontium (Sr) and zinc (Zn) is a popular approach to further improve their biological performance. However, control over ion delivery is important to prevent off-target effects. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are popular nanomaterials that can be designed to incorporate and controllably deliver multiple ions to steer specific regenerative processes. In this work, MSNs loaded with Sr (MSNSr ) and surface coated with a pH-sensitive calcium phosphate (MSNSr -CaP) or calcium phosphate zinc layer (MSNSr -CaZnP) are developed. The ability of the MSNs to promote osteogenesis in human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) under basic cell culture conditions is explored and compared to ion administration directly to the cell culture media. Here, it is shown that MSN-CaPs can effectively induce alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and osteogenic gene expression in the absence of other osteogenic stimulants, where an improved effect is observed for MSNs surface coated with multiple ions. Moreover, comparatively lower ion doses are needed when using MSNs as delivery vehicles compared to direct ion administration in the medium. In summary, the MSNs developed here represent promising vehicles to deliver (multiple) bioinorganics and promote hMSC osteogenesis in basic conditions.

Abstract
Desferrioxamine (DFO) upregulates HIF-1α and stimulates expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), thereby accelerating neovascularization. As DFO acts primarily upon surrounding vein endothelial cells to stimulate angiogenesis, the angiogenic efficacy of DFO could be reduced in severely injured tissues lacking a sufficient number of vein endothelial cells. We hypothesized that combined administration of DFO and vein endothelial cells is a promising tissue engineering approach for promoting neovascularization. In this study, we evaluated the applicability of this approach using injectable, biocompatible, biodegradable nanocomposite gels consisting of poly(dl-lactide-co-glycolide)-b-polyethylene glycol-b-poly(dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA-PEG-PLGA) copolymers and clay nanoparticle LAPONITE. The nanocomposites exhibited irreversible thermo-gelation in the presence of DFO, and the mechanical strength was strongly affected by the amount of DFO. The storage moduli of the gels increased with increasing amount of DFO. These results indicate that the interaction between DFO and LAPONITE works as physical cross-linking points and facilitates the formation of the gel network. The nanocomposite gels achieved sustained slow release of DFO due to interactions between DFO and LAPONITE. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cultured on DFO-loaded nanocomposite gels exhibited a higher degree of vascular tube formation than cells cultured on nanocomposite gels without DFO. Moreover, the number of branching points and the diameter of the blood vessels regenerated in the gels significantly increased with increasing DFO amount, indicating that DFO released from the gels facilitates vascular tube-forming capacity. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate that the combined administration of DFO and vein endothelial cells using nanocomposite gels promotes greater angiogenesis than DFO administration alone using the same gels by in vivo experiments, confirming the validity of our hypothesis. Considering the multiple advantages of nanocomposite gels with regard to potential vascularization capacity, certain biocompatibility, biodegradability, and injectable cell- and drug-delivery capacity, we concluded that the nanocomposite gels have potential utility as scaffolding biomaterials for vascularization in tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Anterior spine decompression and reconstruction with bone grafts and fusion is a routine spinal surgery. The intervertebral fusion cage can maintain intervertebral height and provide a bone graft window. Titanium fusion cages are the most widely used metal material in spinal clinical applications. However, there is a certain incidence of complications in clinical follow-ups, such as pseudoarticulation formation and implant displacement due to nonfusion of bone grafts in the cage. With the deepening research on metal materials, the properties of these materials have been developed from being biologically inert to having biological activity and biological functionalization, promoting adhesion, cell differentiation, and bone fusion. In addition, 3D printing, thin-film, active biological material, and 4D bioprinting technology are also being used in the biofunctionalization and intelligent advanced manufacturing processes of implant devices in the spine. This review focuses on the biofunctionalization of implant materials in 3D printed intervertebral fusion cages. The surface modifications of implant materials in metal endoscopy, material biocompatibility, and bioactive functionalizationare summarized. Furthermore, the prospects and challenges of the biofunctionalization of implant materials in spinal surgery are discussed.

Abstract
In recent years, tissue engineering has emerged as a promising approach to address limitations of organ transplantation. The ultimate goal of tissue engineering is to provide scaffolds that closely mimic the physicochemical and biological cues of native tissues' extracellular matrix. In this endeavor, new generation of scaffolds have been designed that utilize the incorporation of signaling molecules in order to improve cell recruitment, enhance angiogenesis, exert healing activities, and increase the engraftment of the scaffolds. Among different signaling molecules, the role of erythropoietin (EPO) in regenerative medicine is increasingly being appreciated. It is a biological macromolecule which can prevent programed cell death, modulate inflammation, induce cell proliferation, and provide tissue protection in different disease models. In this review, we have outlined and critically analyzed different techniques of scaffolds' modification with EPO or EPO-loaded nanoparticles. We have also explored different strategies for the incorporation of EPO into scaffolds. Non-hematopoietic functions of EPO have also been discussed. Finalizing with detailed discussion surrounding the applications, challenges, and future perspectives of EPO-modified scaffolds in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Avascular necrosis (AVN) of the femoral head commonly leads to symptomatic osteoarthritis of the hip. In older patients, hip replacement is a viable option that restores the hip biomechanics and improves pain but in pediatric, adolescent, and young adult patients hip replacements impose significant activity limitations and the need for multiple revision surgeries with increasing risk of complication. Early detection of AVN requires a high level of suspicion as diagnostic techniques such as X-rays are not sensitive in the early stages of the disease. There are multiple etiologies that can lead to this disease. In the pediatric and adolescent population, trauma is a commonly recognized cause of AVN. The understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease is limited, adding to the challenge of devising a clinically effective treatment strategy. Surgical techniques to prevent progression of the disease and avoid total hip replacement include core decompression, vascular grafts, and use of bone-marrow derived stem cells with or without adjuncts, such as bisphosphonates and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), all of which are partially effective only in the very early stages of the disease. Further, these strategies often only improve pain and range of motion in the short-term in some patients and do not predictably prevent progression of the disease. Tissue engineering strategies with the combined use of biomaterials, stem cells and growth factors offer a potential strategy to avoid metallic implants and surgery. Structural, bioactive biomaterial platforms could help in stabilizing the femoral head while inducing osteogenic differentiation to regenerate bone and provide angiogenic cues to concomitantly recover vasculature in the femoral head. Moreover, injectable systems that can be delivered using a minimal invasive procedure and provide mechanical support the collapsing femoral head could potentially alleviate the need for surgical interventions in the future. The present review describes the limitations of existing surgical methods and the recent advances in tissue engineering that are leading in the direction of a clinically effective, translational solution for AVN in future.

Abstract
More and more studies have recognized that the nanosized pores of hydrogels are too small for cells to normally grow and newly formed tissue to infiltrate, which impedes tissue regeneration. Recently, hydrogels with macropores and/or controlled degradation attract more and more attention for solving this problem. Sodium alginate/Bioglass (SA/BG) hydrogel, which has been reported to be an injectable and bioactive hydrogel, is also limited to be used as tissue engineering scaffolds due to its nanosized pores. Therefore, in this study, degradation of SA/BG hydrogel was modulated by grafting deferoxamine (DFO) to SA. The functionalized grafted DFO-SA (G-DFO-SA) was used to form G-DFO-SA/BG injectable hydrogel. In vitro degradation experiments proved that, compared to SA/BG hydrogel, G-DFO-SA/BG hydrogel had a faster mass loss and structural disintegration. When the hydrogels were implanted subcutaneously, G-DFO-SA/BG hydrogel possessed a faster degradation and better tissue infiltration as compared to SA/BG hydrogel. In addition, in a rat full-thickness skin defect model, wound healing studies showed that, G-DFO-SA/BG hydrogel significantly accelerated wound healing process by inducing more blood vessels formation. Therefore, G-DFO-SA/BG hydrogel can promote tissue infiltration and stimulate angiogenesis formation, which suggesting a promising application potential in tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Large bone defect repair requires biomaterials that promote angiogenesis and osteogenesis. In present work, a nanoclay (Laponite, XLS)-functionalized 3D bioglass (BG) scaffold with hypoxia mimicking property was prepared by foam replication coupled with UV photopolymerization methods. Our data revealed that the incorporation of XLS can significantly promote the mechanical property of the scaffold and the osteogenic differentiation of human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) compared to the properties of the neat BG scaffold. Desferoxamine, a hypoxia mimicking agent, encourages bone regeneration via activating hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α)-mediated angiogenesis. GelMA-DFO immobilization onto BG-XLS scaffold achieved sustained DFO release and inhibited DFO degradation. Furthermore, in vitro data demonstrated increased HIF-1α and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expressions on human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs). Moreover, BG-XLS/GelMA-DFO scaffolds also significantly promoted the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs. Most importantly, our in vivo data indicated BG-XLS/GelMA-DFO scaffolds strongly increased bone healing in a critical-sized mouse cranial bone defect model. Therefore, we developed a novel BG-XLS/GelMA-DFO scaffold which can not only induce the expression of VEGF, but also promote osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs to promote endogenous bone regeneration.

Abstract
Osteoinductive, osteoconductive, and antibacterial properties of bone repair materials play important roles in regulating the successful bone regeneration. In the present work, we developed pH-sensitive gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA)-oxidized sodium alginate (OSA) hydrogels for dual-release of gentamicin sulfate (GS) and phenamil (Phe) to enhance the antibacterial activity and to promote large bone defect repair. Controlled release of GS was achieved through physical blending with GelMA-OSA solution before photo-polymeriaztion, while Phe was encapsulated into mesoporous silicate nanoparticles (MSN) within the hydrogels. In vitro antibacterial studies against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli indicated the broad-spectrum antibacterial property. Moreover, in vitro cell tests verified the synergistically enhanced osteogenic differentiation ability. Furthermore, in vivo studies revealed that the hydrogels significantly increased new bone formation in a critical-sized mouse cranial bone defect model. In summary, the novel dual-network hydrogels with both antibacterial and osteoinductive properties showed promising potential applications in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The introduction of nanoparticles into bone tissue engineering strategies is beneficial to govern cell fate into osteogenesis and the regeneration of large bone defects. The present study explored the role of nanoparticles to advance osteogenesis with a focus on the cellular and molecular pathways involved. Pubmed, Pubmed Central, Embase, Scopus, and Science Direct databases were explored for those published articles relevant to the involvement of nanoparticles in osteogenic cellular pathways. As multifunctional compounds, nanoparticles contribute to scaffold-free and scaffold-based tissue engineering strategies to progress osteogenesis and bone regeneration. They regulate inflammatory responses and osteo/angio/osteoclastic signaling pathways to generate an osteogenic niche. Besides, nanoparticles interact with biomolecules, enhance their half-life and bioavailability. Nanoparticles are promising candidates to promote osteogenesis. However, the interaction of nanoparticles with the biological milieu is somewhat complicated, and more considerations are recommended on the employment of nanoparticles in clinical applications because of NP-induced toxicities.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based materials created by physical processes have received considerable attention for biomedical applications. These structures are often made by associating charged polyelectrolytes in aqueous solutions, avoiding toxic chemistries (crosslinking agents). We review the principal polysaccharides (glycosaminoglycans, marine polysaccharides, and derivatives) containing ionizable groups in their structures and cellulose (neutral polysaccharide). Physical materials with high stability in aqueous media can be developed depending on the selected strategy. We review strategies, including coacervation, ionotropic gelation, electrospinning, layer-by-layer coating, gelation of polymer blends, solvent evaporation, and freezing-thawing methods, that create polysaccharide-based assemblies via in situ (one-step) methods for biomedical applications. We focus on materials used for growth factor (GFs) delivery, scaffolds, antimicrobial coatings, and wound dressings.

Abstract
Abstract
Post-surgical recurrence and metastasis remain to be the major concern in oncology. The absence of any therapeutic modality during the interim period between the surgical intervention and initiation of conventional radiotherapy and chemotherapy allows the residual cancer cells to proliferate, culminating in recurrence and/or metastasis. Introducing a therapeutic modality during this interim period could suppress the proliferation of the residual tumor cells. Further, as the detrimental effects of conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy drastically reduce the patient’s quality of life, use of therapeutic modality with localized effect can reduce the risk of systemic toxicity. Thus, the present manuscript reviews the potential use of scaffold-mediated local chemotherapy in oncology. Its localized effect would prevent systemic toxicity, while the scaffold serves as an ideal vehicle for the sustained targeted delivery of therapeutic agents.

Abstract
Porous biodegradable scaffolds provide a physical substrate for cells allowing them to attach, proliferate and guide the formation of new tissues. A variety of techniques have been developed to fabricate tissue engineering (TE) scaffolds, among them the most relevant is the thermally-induced phase separation (TIPS). This technique has been widely used in recent years to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) TE scaffolds. Low production cost, simple experimental procedure and easy processability together with the capability to produce highly porous scaffolds with controllable architecture justify the popularity of TIPS. This paper provides a general overview of the TIPS methodology applied for the preparation of 3D porous TE scaffolds. The recent advances in the fabrication of porous scaffolds through this technique, in terms of technology and material selection, have been reviewed. In addition, how properties can be effectively modified to serve as ideal substrates for specific target cells has been specifically addressed. Additionally, examples are offered with respect to changes of TIPS procedure parameters, the combination of TIPS with other techniques and innovations in polymer or filler selection.

Abstract
Complex shaped and critical-sized bone defects have been a clinical challenge for many years. Scaffold-based strategies such as hydrogels provide localized drug release while filling complex defect shapes, but ultimately possess weaknesses in low mechanical strength alongside a lack of macroporous and collagen-mimicking nanofibrous structures. Thus, there is a demand for mechanically strong, extracellular matrix (ECM) mimicking scaffolds that can robustly fit complex shaped critical sized defects and simultaneously provide localized, sustained, multiple growth factor release. We therefore developed a composite, bi-phasic PCL/hydroxyapatite (HA) 3D nanofibrous (NF) scaffold for bone tissue regeneration by using our innovative electrospun-based thermally induced self-agglomeration (TISA) technique. One intriguing feature of our ECM-mimicking TISA scaffolds is that they are highly elastic and porous even after evenly coated with minerals and can easily be pressed to fit different defect shapes. Furthermore, the bio-mimetic mineral deposition technique allowed us to simultaneously encapsulate different type of drugs, e.g., proteins and small molecules, on TISA scaffolds under physiologically mild conditions. Compared to scaffolds with physically surface-adsorbed phenamil, a BMP2 signaling agonist, incorporated phenamil composite scaffolds indicated less burst release and longer lasting sustained release of phenamil with subsequently improved osteogenic differentiation of cells in vitro. Overall, our study indicated that the innovative press-fit 3D NF composite scaffold may be a robust tool for multiple-drug delivery and bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Deferoxamine (DFO), an iron chelator regarded as a hypoxic analogue, has been reported to be involved in angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation. In this study, DFO was loaded into nanospheres, Then, DFO-loaded NPs and free DFO were co-encapsulated in nanofibers through coaxial electrospinning and its effects on cell viability, migration, and osteogenic differentiation, and the potential mechanisms were investigated. The results suggested that DFO maintained cell viability and promoted the migration of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and MC3T3-E1 cells. ALP activity, calcium deposition, and expression of osteogenesis-related markers, including collagen, osteocalcin, and osteopontin, were all increased with DFO. Moreover, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, transforming growth factor-β, and Smad2 were upregulated with DFO, which indicated activation of the TGF-β1/Smad2 signalling pathway. This may contribute to osteogenic differentiation of cells.

Abstract
Titanium-based scaffolds are widely used implant materials for bone defect treatment. However, the unmatched biomechanics and poor bioactivities of conventional titanium-based implants usually lead to insufficient bone integration. To tackle these challenges, it is critical to develop novel titanium-based scaffolds that meet the bioadaptive requirements for load-bearing critical bone defects. Herein, inspired by the microstructure and mechanical properties of natural bone tissue, we developed a Ti–6Al–4V alloy (TC4)/gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hybrid scaffold with dual bionic features (GMPT) for bone defect repair. GMPT is composed of a hard 3D-printed porous TC4 metal scaffold (PT) backbone, which mimics the microstructure and mechanical properties of natural cancellous bone, and a soft GelMA hydrogel matrix infiltrated into the pores of PT that mimics the microenvironment of the extracellular matrix. Ascribed to the unique dual bionic design, the resultant GMPT demonstrates better osteogenic and angiogenic capabilities than PT, as confirmed by the in vitro and rabbit radius bone defect experimental results. Moreover, controlling the concentration of GelMA (10%) in GMPT can further improve the osteogenesis and angiogenesis of GMPT. The fundamental mechanisms were revealed by RNA-Seq analysis, which showed that the concentration of GelMA significantly influenced the expression of osteogenesis- and angiogenesis-related genes via the Pi3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. The results of this work indicate that our dual bionic implant design represents a promising strategy for the restoration of large bone defects. A novel TC4/GelMA hybrid scaffold (GMPT) was designed to mimic natural bone microstructure and mechanical property. The GMPT with 10 wt% of GelMA showed best capability for promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis. A bioactive soft surface with suitable stiffness can activate focal adhesion pathway and the downstream PI3K/AKT pathway.

Abstract
Bone formation in the craniofacial complex is regulated by cranial neural crest (CNC) and mesoderm-derived cells. Different elements of the developing skull, face, mandible, maxilla (jaws) and nasal bones are regulated by an array of transcription factors, signaling molecules and microRNAs (miRs). miRs are molecular modulators of these factors and act to restrict their expression in a temporal-spatial mechanism. miRs control the different genetic pathways that form the craniofacial complex. By understanding how miRs function in vivo during development they can be adapted to regenerate and repair craniofacial genetic anomalies as well as bone diseases and defects due to traumatic injuries. This review will highlight some of the new miR technologies and functions that form new bone or inhibit bone regeneration.

Abstract
Successful tissue regeneration strategies focus on the use of novel biomaterials, structures, and a variety of cues to control cell behavior and promote regeneration. Studies discovered how biomaterial/ structure cues in the form of biomaterial chemistry, material stiffness, surface topography, pore, and degradation properties play an important role in controlling cellular events in the contest of in vitro and in vivo tissue regeneration. Advanced biomaterials structures and strategies are developed to focus on the delivery of bioactive factors, such as proteins, peptides, and even small molecules to influence cell behavior and regeneration. The present article is an effort to summarize important findings and further discuss biomaterial strategies to influence and control cell behavior directly via physical and chemical cues. This article also touches on various modern methods in biomaterials processing to include bioactive factors as signaling cues to program cell behavior for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The repair and treatment of articular cartilage injury is a huge challenge of orthopedics. Currently, most of the clinical methods applied in treating cartilage injuries are mainly to relieve pains rather than to cure them, while the strategy of tissue engineering is highly expected to achieve the successful repair of osteochondral defects. Clear understandings of the physiological structures and mechanical properties of cartilage, bone and osteochondral tissues have been established, but the understanding of their physiological heterogeneity still needs further investigation. Apart from the gradients in the micromorphology and composition of cartilage-to-bone extracellular matrixes, an oxygen gradient also exists in natural osteochondral tissue. The response of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-mediated cells to oxygen would affect the differentiation of stem cells and the maturation of osteochondral tissue. This article reviews the roles of oxygen level and HIF signaling pathway in the development of articular cartilage tissue, and their prospective applications in bone and cartilage tissue engineering. The strategies for regulating HIF signaling pathway and how these strategies finding their potential applications in the regeneration of integrated osteochondral tissue are also discussed.
