Abstract
Endogenous regeneration is becoming an increasingly important strategy for wound healing as it facilitates skin's own regenerative potential for self-healing, thereby avoiding the risks of immune rejection and exogenous infection. However, currently applied biomaterials for inducing endogenous skin regeneration are simplistic in their structure and function, lacking the ability to accurately mimic the intricate tissue structure and regulate the disordered microenvironment. Novel biomimetic biomaterials with precise structure, chemical composition, and biophysical properties offer a promising avenue for achieving perfect endogenous skin regeneration. Here, we outline the recent advances in biomimetic materials induced endogenous skin regeneration from the aspects of structural and functional mimicry, physiological process regulation, and biophysical property design. Furthermore, novel techniques including in situ reprograming, flexible electronic skin, artificial intelligence, single-cell sequencing, and spatial transcriptomics, which have potential to contribute to the development of biomimetic biomaterials are highlighted. Finally, the prospects and challenges of further research and application of biomimetic biomaterials are discussed. This review provides reference to address the clinical problems of rapid and high-quality skin regeneration.

Abstract
The foreign body response (FBR) is an immune-mediated reaction that can occur with most biomaterials and biomedical devices. The FBR initiates a deterioration in the performance of implantable devices, representing a longstanding challenge that consistently hampers their optimal utilization. Over the last decade, significant strides are achieved based on either hydrogel design or surface modifications to mitigate the FBR. This review delves into recent material strategies aimed at mitigating the FBR. Further, the authors look forward to future novel anti-FBR materials from the perspective of clinical translation needs. Such prospective materials hold the potential to attenuate local immune responses, thereby significantly enhancing the overall performance of implantable devices.

Abstract
Insertable biosensor systems are medical diagnostic devices with two primary components: an implantable biosensor within the body and a wearable monitor that can remotely interrogate the biosensor from outside the body. Because the biosensor does not require a physical connection to the electronic monitor, insertable biosensor systems promise improved patient comfort, reduced inflammation and infection risk, and extended operational lifetimes relative to established percutaneous biosensor systems. However, the lack of physical connection also presents technical challenges that have necessitated new innovations in developing sensing chemistries, transduction methods, and communication modalities. In this review, we discuss the key developments that have made insertables a promising option for longitudinal biometric monitoring and highlight the essential needs and existing development challenges to realizing the next generation of insertables for extended-use diagnostic and prognostic devices.

Abstract
The durability of photografted zwitterionic hydrogel coatings on cochlear implant biomaterials was examined to determine the viability of these antifouling surfaces during insertion and long-term implant usage. Tribometry was used to determine the effect of zwitterionic coatings on the lubricity of surfaces with varying hydration levels, applied normal force, and time frame. Additionally, flexural resistance was investigated using mandrel bending. Ex vivo durability was assessed by determining the coefficient of friction between tissues and treated surfaces. Furthermore, cochlear implantation force was measured using cadaveric human cochleae. Hydrated zwitterionic hydrogel coatings reduced frictional resistance approximately 20-fold compared to uncoated PDMS, which led to significantly lower mean force experienced by coated cochlear implants during insertion compared to uncoated systems. Under flexural force, zwitterionic films resisted failure for up to 60 min of desiccation. The large increase in lubricity was maintained for 20 h under continual force while hydrated. For loosely cross-linked systems, films remained stable and lubricious even after rehydration following complete drying. All coatings remained hydrated and functional under frictional force for at least 30 min in ambient conditions allowing drying, with lower cross-link densities showing the greatest longevity. Moreover, photografted zwitterionic hydrogel samples showed no evidence of degradation and nearly identical lubricity before and after implantation. This work demonstrates that photografted zwitterionic hydrogel coatings are sufficiently durable to maintain viability before, during, and after implantation. Mechanical properties, including greatly increased lubricity, are preserved after complete drying and rehydration for various applied forces. Additionally, this significantly enhanced lubricity translates to significantly decreased force during insertion of implants which should result in less trauma and scarring.

[PMID: 37967693 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.11.017] [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: 06/22/2023] [Revised: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023]
Abstract
The foreign body response (FBR) to implanted materials culminates in the deposition of a hypo-permeable, collagen rich fibrotic capsule by myofibroblast cells at the implant site. The fibrotic capsule can be deleterious to the function of some medical implants as it can isolate the implant from the host environment. Modulation of fibrotic capsule formation has been achieved using intermittent actuation of drug delivery implants, however the mechanisms underlying this response are not well understood. Here, we use analytical, computational, and in vitro models to understand the response of human myofibroblasts (WPMY-1 stromal cell line) to intermittent actuation using soft robotics and investigate how actuation can alter the secretion of collagen and pro/anti-inflammatory cytokines by these cells. Our findings suggest that there is a mechanical loading threshold that can modulate the fibrotic behaviour of myofibroblasts, by reducing the secretion of soluble collagen, transforming growth factor beta-1 and interleukin 1-beta, and upregulating the anti-inflammatory interleukin-10. By improving our understanding of how cells involved in the FBR respond to mechanical actuation, we can harness this technology to improve functional outcomes for a wide range of implanted medical device applications including drug delivery and cell encapsulation platforms. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A major barrier to the successful clinical translation of many implantable medical devices is the foreign body response (FBR) and resultant deposition of a hypo-permeable fibrotic capsule (FC) around the implant. Perturbation of the implant site using intermittent actuation (IA) of soft-robotic implants has previously been shown to modulate the FBR and reduce FC thickness. However, the mechanisms of action underlying this response were largely unknown. Here, we investigate how IA can alter the activity of myofibroblast cells, and ultimately suggest that there is a mechanical loading threshold within which their fibrotic behaviour can be modulated. These findings can be harnessed to improve functional outcomes for a wide range of medical implants, particularly drug delivery and cell encapsulation devices.

Abstract
Excellent biocompatibility, mechanical properties, chemical stability, and elastic modulus close to bone tissue make polyetheretherketone (PEEK) a promising orthopedic implant material. However, biological inertness has hindered the clinical applications of PEEK. The immune responses and inflammatory reactions after implantation would interfere with the osteogenic process. Eventually, the proliferation of fibrous tissue and the formation of fibrous capsules would result in a loose connection between PEEK and bone, leading to implantation failure. Previous studies focused on improving the osteogenic properties and antibacterial ability of PEEK with various modification techniques. However, few studies have been conducted on the immunomodulatory capacity of PEEK. New clinical applications and advances in processing technology, research, and reports on the immunomodulatory capacity of PEEK have received increasing attention in recent years. Researchers have designed numerous modification techniques, including drug delivery systems, surface chemical modifications, and surface porous treatments, to modulate the post-implantation immune response to address the regulatory factors of the mechanism. These studies provide essential ideas and technical preconditions for the development and research of the next generation of PEEK biological implant materials. This paper summarizes the mechanism by which the immune response after PEEK implantation leads to fibrous capsule formation; it also focuses on modification techniques to improve the anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory abilities of PEEK. We also discuss the limitations of the existing modification techniques and present the corresponding future perspectives.

Abstract
Without differentiated inner and outer biological function, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) small-diameter (<6 mm) artificial blood vessels would fail in vivo due to foreign body rejection, thrombosis, and hyperplasia. In order to synergistically promote endothelialization, anti-thrombogenicity, and anti-inflammatory function, we modified the inner and outer surface of ePTFE, respectively, by grafting functional biomolecules, such as heparin and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), into the inner surface and polyethyleneimine and rapamycin into the outer surface via layer-by-layer self-assembly. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy showed the successful incorporation of EGCG, heparin, and rapamycin. The collaborative release profile of heparin and rapamycin lasted for 42 days, respectively. The inner surface promoted human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) adhesion and growth and that the outer surface inhibited smooth muscle cells growth and proliferation. The modified ePTFE effectively regulated the differentiation behavior of RAW264.7, inhibited the expression of proinflammatory mediator TNF-α, and up-regulated the expression of anti-inflammatory genes Arg1 and Tgfb-1. The ex vivo circulation results indicated that the occlusions and total thrombus weight of modified ePTFE was much lower than that of the thrombus formed on the ePTFE, presenting good anti-thrombogenic properties. Hence, the straightforward yet efficient synergistic surface functionalization approach presented a potential resolution for the prospective clinical application of small-diameter ePTFE blood vessel grafts.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) is a growth factor that effectively promotes osteogenesis. Microsphere-based drug-delivery systems can facilitate an increase in the local concentration of BMP, thus promoting bone formation. In this study, calcium phosphate silicate (CPS) microspheres were used as drug-loading systems for BMP. Three groups─CPS, CPS + BMP, and CPS + BMP + soy lecithin (SL)─were set up, where SL was used to prolong the osteogenic effect of the microsphere system. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and femoral defects in rats were used to compare the osteogenic ability of the three groups. The results indicated that CPS microspheres were good carriers of BMP, facilitating a smoother release into the cells and tissues. SL loading improved the loading rate of BMP, which promoted the osteogenic effect of the microspheres with BMP. We propose CPS microspheres as potential drug-delivery systems that can be effectively used in the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
The poor bacteriostasis and osseointegration properties of bioinert polyetheretherketone (PEEK) hinder its clinical application. This work reports a simple and versatile strategy for fabricating dual-functional coating with programmed sequential drug release properties on porous PEEK surfaces. The dual-drug-loaded composite coating composed of drug-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles and drug-loaded polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel can be immobilized on the surface of sulfonated PEEK by a cyclic freeze-thaw method. Based on the swelling of PVA and the slow degradation of PLGA, the composite coating can realize rapid release of antibacterial drugs and sustained release of osteogenic drugs. The in vitro antibacterial evaluations show that the porous PEEK modified with drug-loaded composite gel coating exhibits an early effective fight against Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus). The results of in vitro cell experiments show that the PEEK materials modified by the composite gel coating can well support the normal growth, adhesion and proliferation of cells. In addition, the PEEK material coated with the drug-loaded composite gel is found to have positive effects on the osteogenic differentiation of cells in detections of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity of cells and the amount of calcium deposition on the surface of the material. The results demonstrate that the proposed porous PEEK modified with dual-drug-loaded composite gel coating simultaneously exhibits excellent osseointegration and exerts early effective antibacterial activity. This dual-functional PEEK material has great application potential in clinical bone tissue repair.

Defects of articular joints are becoming an increasing societal burden due to a persistent increase in obesity and aging. For some patients suffering from cartilage erosion, joint replacement is the final option to regain proper motion and limit pain. Extensive research has been undertaken to identify novel strategies enabling earlier intervention to promote regeneration and cartilage healing. With the introduction of decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM), researchers have tapped into the potential for increased tissue regeneration by designing biomaterials with inherent biochemical and immunomodulatory signals. Compared to conventional and synthetic materials, dECM-based materials invoke a reduced foreign body response. It is therefore highly beneficial to understand the interplay of how these native tissue-based materials initiate a favorable remodeling process by the immune system. Yet, such an understanding also demands increasing considerations of the pathological environment and remodeling processes, especially for materials designed for early disease intervention. This knowledge would avoid rejection and help predict complications in conditions with inflammatory components such as arthritides. This review outlines general issues facing biomaterial integration and emphasizes the importance of tissue-derived macromolecular components in regulating essential homeostatic, immunological, and pathological processes to increase biomaterial integration for patients suffering from joint degenerative diseases.

Abstract
Numerous human disorders can benefit from targeted, intravenous (IV) drug delivery. Polymeric nanoparticles have been designed to undergo systemic circulation and deliver their therapeutic cargo to target sites in a controlled manner. Poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) is a particularly promising biomaterial for designing intravenous drug carriers due to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and history of clinical success across other routes of administration. Despite these merits, PLGA remains markedly absent in clinically approved IV drug delivery formulations. A prominent factor in PLGA particles' inability to succeed intravenously may lie in the hydrophobic character of the polyester, leading to the adsorption of serum proteins (i.e., opsonization) and a cascade of events that end in their premature clearance from the bloodstream. PEGylation, or surface-attached polyethylene glycol chains, is a common strategy for shielding particles from opsonization. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) continues to be regarded as the ultimate "stealth" solution despite the lack of clinical progress of PEGylated PLGA carriers. This review reflects on some of the reasons for the clinical failure of PLGA, particularly the drawbacks of PEGylation, and highlights alternative surface coatings on PLGA particles. Ultimately, a new approach will be needed to harness the potential of PLGA nanoparticles and allow their widespread clinical adoption.

Modular polymer platform as a novel approach to head and neck cancer therapy. Sci Rep 2022; 12:3592.

Abstract
Head and neck cancer is the sixth most common cancer in the world, with more than 300,000 deaths attributed to the disease annually. Aggressive surgical resection often with adjuvant chemoradiation is the cornerstone of treatment. However, the necessary chemoradiation treatment can result in collateral damage to adjacent vital structures causing a profound impact on quality of life. Here, we present a novel polymer of poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid and polyvinyl alcohol that can serve as a versatile multidrug delivery platform as well as for detection on cross-sectional imaging while functioning as a fiduciary marker for postoperative radiotherapy and radiotherapeutic dosing. In a mouse xenograft model, the dual-layered polymer composed of calcium carbonate/thymoquinone was used for both polymer localization and narrow-field infusion of a natural therapeutic compound. A similar approach can be applied in the treatment of head and neck cancer patients, where immunotherapy and traditional chemotherapy can be delivered simultaneously with independent release kinetics.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the application of a responsive nano-drug-loading system in injury model of articular chondrocyte in rabbits, as well as its effect on expression of matrix metalloprotein 13 (MMP13). The nanoprecipitation method was adopted to prepare camptothecin (CPT)-loaded poly ethylene glycol (PEG)-Poly caprolactone (PCL) and PEG-PCL nanoparticles without CPT. Afterward, the above mentioned nano-drug-loaded system was used to treat an in vitro scratch model of articular chondrocytes. According to different treatment plans, they were divided into groups: G0 (administered CPT-PEG-PCL nanomedicine), G1 (administered PEG-PCL drug), G2 (saline control), and G3 (healthy control). Results showed that the drug-loading capacity and efficiency of CPT-PEG-PCL was higher than that of PEG-PCL. The levels of type II collagen and hyaluronic acid in G0 was higher than that in G1 and G2. The levels of type II collagen and hyaluronic acid in G0 were not obviously different from those in G3. The level of MMP13 in G0 was lower than that in G1 and G2 and the level of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP1) in G0 was higher than that in G1 and G2. The proliferation activity of cells in G0 was higher than that in G1 and G2, but there was no obvious difference when compared with G3. In conclusion, CPT-PEG-PCL has stronger long-term circulation capacity and drug-loading efficiency. It can effectively up-regulate the levels of type II collagen, hyaluronic acid, and TIMP1, as well as reduce the synthesis and secretion of MMP13 and promote the repair of articular cartilage damage.

Abstract
To produce an effective nanoparticle-loaded delivery system for the tumor drug erlotinib for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) therapy, we loaded poly(lactic co glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles with erlotinib and used them to transport the drug to a target area. NCI-H1650 cells were cultured to test the permeability, efficiency, and anti-tumor capacity of PLGA and polyethyleneimine (PEI) drug delivery systems, and an NSCLC mouse model was prepared to further test the anti-tumor efficiency of PLGA. In tests using NCI-H1650 cells, we found that PLGA could effectively transport erlotinib into tumor cells, and release the loaded drug instantly. The infiltration efficiency was significantly higher than that of the PEI delivery system, and the same results were obtained in animal tests. PLGA-erlotinib could promote apoptosis and inhibit the migration of tumor cells more effectively than PEI-erlotinib. In the NSCLC mouse model, PLGA could more effectively reduce the tumor volume and the extent of tumor markers than the PEI delivery system. Immune function was also better rescued with the use of the PLGA system. We concluded that PLGA-erlotinib may be a good choice for lung cancer therapy in the future.

Abstract
Biopolymeric microparticles have been widely used for long-term release formulations of short half-life chemicals or synthetic peptides. Characterization of the drug release from microparticles is important to ensure product quality and desired pharmacological effect. However, there is no official method for long-term release parenteral dosage forms. Much work has been done to develop methods for in vitro drug release testing, generally grouped into three major categories: sample and separate, dialysis membrane, and continuous flow (flow-through cell) methods. In vitro drug release testing also plays an important role in providing insight into the in vivo performance of a product. In vitro release test with in vivo relevance can reduce the cost of conducting in vivo studies and accelerate drug product development. Therefore, investigation of the in vitro–in vivo correlation (IVIVC) is increasingly becoming an essential part of particulate formulation development. This review summarizes the principles of the in vitro release testing methods of biopolymeric particulate system with the recent research articles and discusses their characteristics including IVIVC, accelerated release testing methods, and stability of encapsulated drugs.

Abstract
Transmembrane charge (ion/electron) transfer is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and is involved in many biological processes, from protein synthesis to embryonic development in organisms. Designing implant devices that can detect or regulate cellular transmembrane charge transfer is expected to sense and modulate the behaviors of host cells and tissues. Thus, charge transfer can be regarded as a bridge connecting living systems and human-made implantable devices. This review describes the mode and mechanism of charge transfer between organisms and nonliving materials, and summarizes the strategies to endow implants with charge-transfer regulating or monitoring abilities. Furthermore, three major charge-transfer controlling systems, including wired, self-activated, and stimuli-responsive biomedical implants, as well as the design principles and pivotal materials are systematically elaborated. The clinical challenges and the prospects for future development of these implant devices are also discussed.

Abstract
The efficacy of implanted polypropylene (PP) hernia meshes is often compromised by an inflammatory response. Thus, engineering an anti-inflammatory mesh has significant implications for hernioplasty. Here, we report a facile strategy to develop a filament-anchored hydrogel layer (FAHL) on PP mesh (FAHL-P). The network of FAHL, made up of chondroitin sulfate and gelatin (CG), provided a biomimetic surface with immunoregulatory properties. The use of tannic acid (TA) as a crosslinker for CG additionally enhanced its anti-inflammatory properties. In addition, the fabrication protocol ensured that the hydrogel maintained the properties of the knitted mesh and the firmly adherent FAHL during general handling (dry state) and in the simulated body environment (wet state). CG/TA-PP killed 99.99% of S. aureus and retained 73% of its original antioxidant properties after 7 d. The FAHL durably performed with a controlled release of TA for 15 d. The strong anti-inflammatory effects of FAHL-P reduced collagen deposition and increased vascularization, which promoted native tissue generation. The fabrication strategy has potential applications in hernioplasty and may provide new insights into the design of other anti-inflammatory implants. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A hydrogel layer with robust anti-inflammatory effects was anchored firmly on mesh filament for hernia repair. Requiring no drug loading, this chondroitin sulphate -gelatin (CG) based hydrogel itself could inhibit the immunological attack owing to the biomimetic microenvironment created by the CG. Moreover, the hydrogel's crosslinker (tannic acid) content served as an effective scavenger for reducing pro-inflammatory factors, significantly mitigating the inflammation. Interestingly, the antibacterial effect of such hydrogel layer was also observed. In terms of the synergistic outcome of the design, our mesh can remarkably attenuate inflammation and promote constructive tissue regeneration in vivo. Furthermore, considering the relatively simple and easily scaled up formulation process, our strategy may indeed have great potential in alleviating post-implantation outcomes.

Abstract
Expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) is commonly used in cardiovascular surgery, but usually causes postoperation complications. Although great efforts have been done to relieve these complications or to understand their mechanism, there are no applicable strategies available and no understanding mechanisms, especially in the myocardium. Here, ePTFE membranes are implanted into the right ventricular outflow tract of rabbits, and the implant-related myocardium is dissected and analyzed by histology and transcriptome sequencing. ePTFE implantation causes myocardium inflammation and fibrosis. There are 1867 differently expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs, 1107 upregulated and 760 downregulated) and 246 differently expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs, 110 upregulated and 136 downregulated) identified. Bioinformatic analysis indicates that the upregulated DEmRNAs and DElncRNAs are mainly involved in inflammatory, immune responses, and extracellular matrix remodeling, while the downregulated DEmRNAs and DElncRNAs are predominantly functioned in the metabolism and cardiac remodeling. Analysis of coexpression and regulatory relationship of DEmRNAs and DElncRNAs reveals that most DElncRNAs are trans-regulated on the relevant DEmRNAs. In conclusion, ePTFE implantation causes severe myocardial tissue damages and alters the transcriptome profiles of the myocardium. Such novel data may provide a landscape of mechanisms underlying the adverse reactions caused by ePTFE implantation and uncover new therapeutic targets for inhibiting the ePTFE-related complications.

Abstract
In light of immune facilities trafficking toward the pathological sites along upward gradient of immunostimulatory cytokines, a localized resiquimod (Toll-like receptor 7/8 agonist) release depot was manufactured for pursuit of precision immunostimulation toward intractable triple-negative breast carcinoma. In principle, resiquimod/poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres were fabricated and embedded into injectable and biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based hydrogel. The subsequent investigations approved persistent retention of immunostimulatory resiquimod in tumors upon peritumoral administration, which consequently led to localized and consistent secretion of immunostimulatory cytokines. Initially, not only innate tumor phagocytosis but also adaptive antitumor immunities were successfully cultivated for in situ suppression of the growth of primary solid tumors, more importantly, capable of inhibiting distant pulmonary metastasis, as evidenced by observation of enormous lymphocytes selectively gathering in the pulmonary artery. Hence, our presented study provided an important clinical indication of using immunostimulatory drugs to activate potent innate and adaptive antitumor immunities for precision antitumor therapy. Further immunomodulatory strategies, such as checkpoint blockage and tumor immunogenicity, could also be complementary for development of advanced antitumor immunotherapeutics in treatment of a number of intractable tumors.

Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic disease involving elevated blood glucose levels. Controlled insulin delivery is an ideal method to achieve glycemic control. However, glucose levels vary as a result of changes in the body's physiological conditions resulting from different daily events, such as meals, exercise and stress. It is essential to develop and to monitor appropriate biomarkers for these natural physiological perturbations in order to achieve a holistic understanding of metabolic changes in diabetic patients to facilitate optimal glucose management and make possible personalized medicine for this very debilitating disease. The novel aspects of the current research include the combination of the tail suspension stress animal model and microdialysis for stress biomarker monitoring. A tail suspension test was optimized and used as a stress inducer for different groups of model rats (normal, untreated diabetic and insulin-treated diabetic rats). The levels of multiple metabolic analytes in the subcutaneous tissue were monitored continuously using subcutaneous microdialysis analysis. Different analytes, including pH, glucose and lactate were monitored and analyzed. Another important and original aspect of the reported work is that revelation that the pH, lactate and glucose levels increased under the stress conditions and the changes tended to be more pronounced in diabetic rats (both untreated and long-acting insulin-treated) compared to normal rats. Long-acting insulin treatment was shown to shorten the duration of the pH and glucose changes in response to stress when compared to the untreated diabetic rats. An additional novel aspect of the research is that subcutaneous pH was shown to be a sensitive stress biomarker for diabetic rats as pH changes rapidly after stress initiation. This research provides insight into the importance of accurate glycemic control and diabetes management for individual patients through highlighting stress management and appropriate biomarker monitoring, especially the value of combining pH and lactate monitoring with typical glucose monitoring. This research will pave the way for individualized medicine for diabetic patients through helping to obtain a holistic understanding of the various important biomarkers, rather than solely depending on glucose monitoring to determine appropriate insulin dosing.

Int J Pharm 2020; 591:119964. [PMID: 33137449 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2020.119964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2020] [Revised: 09/22/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to resolve the lag time problem for peptides loaded PLGA-Hydrogel Microspheres (PLGA-gel-Ms) by blending low molecular PLGA (Mw. 1 kDa) into PLGA (Mw. 10 kDa) as an intrinsic porogen, and then assess the in vitro-in vivo relationship (IVIVR). Here, Goserelin acetate (GOS) was chosen as the model peptides. When compared to additional types of porogen, the intrinsic porogen avoided impurities remaining and protected the bioactivities of the peptides. By adding 10% PLGA (Mw. 1 kDa), the lag time was eliminated both in vitro and in vivo with a desirable EE (97.04% ± 0.51%). The release mechanisms were found to be: a) initial GOS release mainly controlled by pores diffusion and b) autocatalysis of PLGA (Mw. 1 kDa) which increased the quantity of aqueous pores, as revealed by SEM images. To solve the challenges caused by multiphasic release profiles, for the first time the Segmented phases IVIVR were proposed and developed, and showed improved linear fitting effects and supported the proposed release mechanisms. The application of PLGA blends could provide a new insight into PLGA microsphere initial release rate regulation.

Endogenous cell recruitment strategy for articular cartilage regeneration. Acta Biomater 2020; 114:31-52. [PMID: 32652223 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2020.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2020] [Revised: 07/02/2020] [Accepted: 07/02/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
In the absence of timely and proper treatments, injuries to articular cartilage (AC) can lead to cartilage degeneration and ultimately result in osteoarthritis. Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering techniques are emerging as promising approaches for AC regeneration and repair. Although the use of cell-seeded scaffolds prior to implantation can regenerate and repair cartilage lesions to some extent, these approaches are still restricted by limited cell sources, excessive costs, risks of disease transmission and complex manufacturing practices. Recently developed acellular scaffold approaches that rely on the recruitment of endogenous cells to the injured sites avoid these drawbacks and offer great promise for in situ AC regeneration. Multiple endogenous stem/progenitor cells (ESPCs) are found in joint-resident niches and have the capability to migrate to sites of injury to participate in AC regeneration. However, the natural recruitment of ESPCs is insufficient, and the local microenvironment is hostile after injury. Hence, an endogenous cell recruitment strategy based on the combination of chemoattractants and acellular scaffolds to effectively and specifically recruit ESPCs and improve local microenvironment may provide new insights into in situ AC regeneration. This review provides a brief overview of: (1) the status of endogenous cell recruitment strategy; (2) the subpopulations, potential migration routes (PMRs) of joint-resident ESPCs and their immunomodulatory and reparative effects; (3) chemoattractants and their potential adverse effects; (4) scaffold-based drug delivery systems (SDDSs) that are utilized for in situ AC regeneration; and (5) the challenges and future perspectives of endogenous cell recruitment strategy for AC regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Although the endogenous cell recruitment strategy for articular cartilage (AC) regeneration has been investigated for several decades, much work remains to be performed in this field. Future studies should have the following aims: (1) reporting the up-to-date progress in the endogenous cell recruitment strategies; (2) determining the subpopulations of ESPCs, the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the migration of these cells and their anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and reparative effects; (3) elucidating the chemoattractants that enhance ESPC recruitment and their potential adverse effects; and (4) developing advanced SDDSs for chemoattractant dispatch. Herein, we present a systematic overview of the aforementioned issues to provide a better understanding of endogenous cell recruitment strategies for AC regeneration and repair.

Abstract
The disruptive action of an acute or critical illness is frequently manifest through rapid biochemical changes that may require continuous monitoring. Within these changes, resides trend information of predictive value, including responsiveness to therapy. In contrast to physical variables, biochemical parameters monitored on a continuous basis are a largely untapped resource because of the lack of clinically usable monitoring systems. This is despite the huge testing repertoire opening up in recent years in relation to discrete biochemical measurements. Electrochemical sensors offer one of the few routes to obtaining continuous readout and, moreover, as implantable devices information referable to specific tissue locations. This review focuses on new biological insights that have been secured through in vivo electrochemical sensors. In addition, the challenges of operating in a reactive, biological, sample matrix are highlighted. Specific attention is given to the choreographed host rejection response, as evidenced in blood and tissue, and how this limits both sensor life time and reliability of operation. Examples will be based around ion, O2, glucose, and lactate sensors, because of the fundamental importance of this group to acute health care.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) had neuroprotective effects on dopaminergic (DA) neurons. In order to overcome the gastrointestinal digestion and bioaccessibility, VEGF was encapsulated with poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid nanospheres (NS) in order to prevent the VEGF degradation until its release. The caudal administration of VEGF and NS encapsulated VEGF at different doses (1.0, 10.0, and 100.0 ng/ml) on the rats with Parkinson's disease lesion was evaluated. Intravenous injected VEGF at the dose of 1 ng/ml displayed the strongest neuroprotective effect than other groups as well as the stereotaxic group. The NS encapsulated with VEGF can pass through blood-brain barrier and protect the DA neurons. There was no significant difference between intravenous injection method and stereotaxic method, while the first method is simpler and convenient. Injection of NS encapsulated with VEGF may become a valuable neurorescuing therapeutic approach for Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
The broad application of ß cell transplantation for type 1 diabetes is hindered by the requisite of lifelong systemic immunosuppression. This study examines the utility of localized islet graft drug delivery to subvert the inflammatory and adaptive immune responses. Herein, we have developed and characterized dexamethasone (Dex) eluting Food and Drug Administration-approved micro-Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) micelles and examined their efficacy in a fully major histocompatibility complex-mismatch murine islet allograft model. A clinically relevant dose of 46.6 ± 2.8 μg Dex per graft was confirmed when 2 mg of micelles was implemented. Dex-micelles + CTLA-4-Ig (n = 10) resulted in prolonged allograft function with 80% of the recipients demonstrating insulin independence for 60 days posttransplant compared to 40% in empty micelles + CTLA-4-Ig recipients (n = 10, P = .06). Recipients of this combination therapy (n = 8) demonstrated superior glucose tolerance profiles, compared to empty micelles + CTLA-4-Ig recipients (n = 4, P < .05), and significantly reduced localized intragraft proinflammatory cytokine expression. Histologically, increased insulin positive and FOXP3+ T cells were observed in Dex-micelles + CTLA-4-Ig grafts compared to empty micelles + CTLA-4-Ig grafts (P < .01 and P < .05, respectively). Localized drug delivery via micelles elution has the potential to alter the inflammatory environment, enhances allograft survival, and may be an important adjuvant approach to improve clinical islet transplantation outcomes.

Abstract
Dicationic Imidazolum-based ionic liquids with amino acid anions (IonL) have been proposed as a multifunctional coating for titanium dental implants, as their properties have been shown to address multiple early complicating factors while maintaining host cell compatibility. This study aims to evaluate effects of this coating on host response in the absence of complicating oral factors during the early healing period using a subcutaneous implantation model in the rat. IonLs with the best cytocompatibility and antimicrobial properties (IonL-Phe, IonL-Met) were chosen as coatings. Three different doses were applied to cpTi disks and subcutaneously implanted into 36 male Lewis rats. Rats received 2 implants: 1 coated implant on one side and an uncoated implant on the contralateral sides (n=3 per formulation, per dose). Peri-implant tissue was evaluated 2 and 14 days after implantation with H&E staining and IHC markers associated with macrophage polarization as well as molecular analysis (qPCR) for inflammatory and healing markers. H&E stains revealed the presence of the coating, blood clots and inflammatory infiltrate at 2 days around all implants. At 14 days, inflammation had receded with more developed connective tissue with fibroblasts, blood vessels in certain doses of coated and uncoated samples with no foreign body giant cells. This study demonstrated that IonL at the appropriate concentration does not significantly interfere with and healing and Ti foreign body response. Results regarding optimal dose and formulation from this study will be applied in future studies using an oral osseointegration model.
