Abstract
3D stem cell spheroids have immense potential for various tissue engineering applications. However, current spheroid fabrication techniques encounter cell viability issues due to limited oxygen access for cells trapped within the core, as well as nonspecific differentiation issues due to the complicated environment following transplantation. In this study, functional 3D spheroids are developed using mesenchymal stem cells with 2D hetero-nanostructures (HNSs) composed of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding carbon nanotubes (sdCNTs) and gelatin-bind black phosphorus nanosheets (gBPNSs). An osteogenic molecule, dexamethasone (DEX), is further loaded to fabricate an sdCNTgBP-DEX HNS. This approach aims to establish a multifunctional cell-inductive 3D spheroid with improved oxygen transportation through hollow nanotubes, stimulated stem cell growth by phosphate ions supplied from BP oxidation, in situ immunoregulation, and osteogenesis induction by DEX molecules after implantation. Initial transplantation of the 3D spheroids in rat calvarial bone defect shows in vivo macrophage shifts to an M2 phenotype, leading to a pro-healing microenvironment for regeneration. Prolonged implantation demonstrates outstanding in vivo neovascularization, osteointegration, and new bone regeneration. Therefore, these engineered 3D spheroids hold great promise for bone repair as they allow for stem cell delivery and provide immunoregulative and osteogenic signals within an all-in-one construct.

Abstract
We report on the first observation of diffusion anisotropy of gaseous helium-3 entrapped in ordered aerogels at 4.2 K. The origins of 3He diffusion anisotropy in aerogels of different porosity are discussed. The correlations between gas diffusion coefficient and basic parameters of aerogels, such as porosity, fiber diameter, and fiber's degree of alignment, are inspected using simple diffusion simulations within the framework of classical diffusion model in both oriented and chaotic aerogels under conditions of diffuse (Knudsen diffusion) and specular reflections of atoms from the walls. The failure of the two-phase and Knudsen diffusion models at low temperature in isotropic and anisotropic aerogels is observed. The effect of a wall attractive potential on the gas dynamics is suspected to play a crucial role in the gas diffusion and its anisotropy. The rough theoretical estimates of that effect at low temperatures in aerogel space confirm this assumption. The observed peculiar diffusion is universal and is expected to occur with other probe gases at higher temperatures.
