[PMID: 37659491 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.126618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/04/2023]
Abstract
Currently, bio-natural injectable hydrogels are receiving a lot of attention due to their ability to control, adjust, and adapt to random bone defects, in addition, to their ability to mimic the composition of natural bones. From such a viewpoint, this study goal is to prepare and characterize the injectable hydrogels paste based on the natural alginate (Alg) derived from brown sea algae as a polysaccharide polymer, which coupled with nano biogenic-hydroxyapatite (n-HA) prepared from eggshells and enriched with valuable trace elements. The viscosity and mechanical properties of the paste were investigated. As well as the in-vitro study in terms of water absorption and biodegradability in the PBS, biocompatibility and the capability of the injectable Alginate/n-Hydroxyapatite (Alg/n-HA) to regenerate bone for the most suitable injectable form. The injectable hydrogel (BP -B sample) was chosen for the study as it had an appropriate setting time for injecting (13 mins), and suitable compressive strength reached 6.3 MPa. The in vivo study was also carried out including a post-surgery follow-up test of the newly formed bone (NB) in the defect area after 10 and 20 weeks using different techniques such as (SEM/EDX) and histological analysis, the density of the newly formed bone by Dual x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), blood biochemistry and the radiology test. The results proved that the injectable hydrogels Alginate/n-Hydroxyapatite (Alg/n-HA) had an appreciated biodegradability and bioactivity, which allow the progress of angiogenesis, endochondral ossification, and osteogenesis throughout the defect area, which positively impacts the healing time and ensures the full restoration for the well-mature bone tissue that similar to the natural bone.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal engineering has been considered as a promising approach to customize regenerated tissue (such as bone, cartilage, tendon, and ligament) via a self-healing performance. Recent advances have demonstrated the great potential of bioactive materials for regenerative medicine. Silk fibroin (SF), a natural polymer, is regarded as a remarkable bioactive material for musculoskeletal engineering thanks to its biocompatibility, biodegradability, and tunability. To improve tissue-engineering performance, silk fibroin is hybridized with other biomaterials to form silk-fibroin-based hybrid biomaterials, which achieve superior mechanical and biological performance. Herein, we summarize the recent development of silk-based hybrid biomaterials in musculoskeletal tissue with reasonable generalization and classification, mainly including silk fibroin-based inorganic and organic hybrid biomaterials. The applied inorganics are composed of calcium phosphate, graphene oxide, titanium dioxide, silica, and bioactive glass, while the polymers include polycaprolactone, collagen (or gelatin), chitosan, cellulose, and alginate. This article mainly focuses on the physical and biological performances both in vitro and in vivo study of several common silk-based hybrid biomaterials in musculoskeletal engineering. The timely summary and highlight of silk-fibroin-based hybrid biomaterials will provide a research perspective to promote the further improvement and development of silk fibroin hybrid biomaterials for improved musculoskeletal engineering.

Abstract
Natural bone is a composite organic-inorganic material, containing hydroxyapatite (HAP) as an inorganic phase. In this review, applications of natural alginic acid (ALGH) polymer for the fabrication of composites containing HAP are described. ALGH is used as a biocompatible structure directing, capping and dispersing agent for the synthesis of HAP. Many advanced techniques for the fabrication of ALGH-HAP composites are attributed to the ability of ALGH to promote biomineralization. Gel-forming and film-forming properties of ALGH are key factors for the development of colloidal manufacturing techniques. Electrochemical fabrication techniques are based on strong ALGH adsorption on HAP, pH-dependent charge and solubility of ALGH. Functional properties of advanced composite ALGH-HAP films and coatings, scaffolds, biocements, gels and beads are described. The composites are loaded with other functional materials, such as antimicrobial agents, drugs, proteins and enzymes. Moreover, the composites provided a platform for their loading with cells for the fabrication of composites with enhanced properties for various biomedical applications. This review summarizes manufacturing strategies, mechanisms and outlines future trends in the development of functional biocomposites.

Abstract
The treatment of large segmental bone defects and complex types of fractures caused by trauma, inflammation, or tumor resection is still a challenge in the field of orthopedics. Various natural or synthetic biological materials used in clinical applications cannot fully replicate the structure and performance of raw bone. This highlights how to endow materials with multiple functions and biological properties, which is a problem that needs to be solved in practical applications. Hydrogels with outstanding biocompatibility, for their casting into any shape, size, or form, are suitable for different forms of bone defects. Therefore, they have been used in regenerative medicine more widely. In this review, versatile hydrogels are compounded with nanoparticles of different dimensions, and many desirable features of these materials in bone regeneration are introduced, including drug delivery, cell factor vehicle, cell scaffolds, which have potential in bone regeneration applications. The combination of hydrogels and nanoparticles of different dimensions encourages better filling of bone defect areas and has higher adaptability. This is due to the minimally invasive properties of the material and ability to match irregular defects. These biological characteristics make composite hydrogels with different dimensional nanoparticles become one of the most attractive options for bone regeneration materials.

Abstract
Silk fibroin is a protein with intrinsic characteristics that make it a good candidate as a scaffold for tissue engineering. Recent works have enhanced its benefits by adding inorganic phases that interact with silk fibroin in different ways. A systematic review was performed in four databases to study the physicochemical and biological performance of silk fibroin nanocomposites. In the last decade, only 51 articles contained either in vitro cell culture models or in vivo tests. The analysis of such works resulted in their classification into the following scaffold types: particles, mats and textiles, films, hydrogels, sponge-like structures, and mixed conformations. From the physicochemical perspective, the inorganic phase imbued in silk fibroin nanocomposites resulted in better stability and mechanical performance. This review revealed that the inorganic phase may be associated with specific biological responses, such as neovascularisation, cell differentiation, cell proliferation, and antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activity. The study of nanocomposites as tissue engineering scaffolds is a highly active area mostly focused on bone and cartilage regeneration with promising results. Nonetheless, there are still many challenges related to their application in other tissues, a better understanding of the interaction between the inorganic and organic phases, and the associated biological response.

Abstract
Enamel, the hardest tissue in the human body, has excellent mechanical properties, mainly due to its highly ordered spatial structure. Fabricating enamel-like structure is still a challenge today. In this work, a simple and highly efficient method was introduced, using the silk fibroin as a template to regulate calcium- and phosphate- supersaturated solution to regenerate enamel-like hydroxyapatite crystals on various substrates (enamel, dentin, titanium, and polyethylene) under rotary evaporation. The enamel-like zinc oxide nanorod array structure was also successfully synthesized using the aforementioned method. This strategy provides a new approach to design and fabricate mineral crystals with particular orientation coatings for materials.

Abstract
Animal silks are built from pure protein components and their mechanical performance, such as strength and toughness, often exceed most engineered materials. The secret to this success is their unique nanoarchitectures that are formed through the hierarchical self-assembly of silk proteins. This natural material fabrication process in sharp contrast to the production of artificial silk materials, which usually are directly constructed as bulk structures from silk fibroin (SF) molecular. In recent years, with the aim of understanding and building better silk materials, a variety of fabrication strategies have been designed to control nanostructures of silks or to create functional materials from silk nanoscale building blocks. These emerging fabrication strategies offer an opportunity to tailor the structure of SF at the nanoscale and provide a promising route to produce structurally and functionally optimized silk nanomaterials. Here, we review the critical roles of silk nanoarchitectures on property and function of natural silk fibers, outline the strategies of utilization of these silk nanobuilding blocks, and we provide a critical summary of state of the art in the field to create silk nanoarchitectures and to generate silk-based nanocomponents. Further, such insights suggest templates to consider for other materials systems.

Abstract
Tissue engineering strategies have been pushing forward several fields in the range of biomedical research. The musculoskeletal field is not an exception. In fact, tissue engineering has been a great asset in the development of new treatments for osteochondral lesions. Herein, we overview the recent developments in osteochondral tissue engineering. Currently, the treatments applied in a clinical scenario have shown some drawbacks given the difficulty in regenerating a fully functional hyaline cartilage. Among the different strategies designed for osteochondral regeneration, it is possible to identify cell-free strategies, scaffold-free strategies, and advanced strategies, where different materials are combined with cells. Cell-free strategies consist in the development of scaffolds in the attempt to better fulfill the requirements of the cartilage regeneration process. For that, different structures have been designed, from monolayers to multilayered structures, with the intent to mimic the osteochondral architecture. In the case of scaffold-free strategies, they took advantage on the extracellular matrix produced by cells. The last strategy relies in the development of new biomaterials capable of mimicking the extracellular matrix. This way, the cell growth, proliferation, and differentiation at the lesion site are expedited, exploiting the self-regenerative potential of cells and its interaction with biomolecules. Overall, despite the difficulties associated with each approach, tissue engineering has been proven a valuable tool in the regeneration of osteochondral lesions and together with the latest advances in the field, promises to revolutionize personalized therapies.

Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF) as a bioactive protein can offer growth substrates for hydroxyapatite (HAp) deposition. In the current work, graft copolymerization of acrylic acid (AA) onto fibroin chains was carried out using hydrogen peroxide-horseradish peroxidase (H2O2-HRP) catalytic system, SF-g-polyacrylic acid (PAA) membranes was prepared subsequently, followed by in situ biomimetic mineralization in the Ca/P solutions, aiming at promoting the deposition of HAp and endowing the fibroin-based biocomposite with enhanced bioactivity. Meanwhile, p-hydroxyphenylacetamide (PHAD) and methyl acrylate (MA), as the model compounds of tyrosine residues in SF and vinyl monomer were used to disclose the mechanism of graft copolymerization. The data from FTIR and SEC chromatograms indicated that vinyl monomer was successfully graft copolymerized with SF during H2O2-HRP treatment. According to the results of XRD, SEM patterns and EDS-Mapping, mineral phases on the surfaces of SF-g-PAA membranes were detected after different cycles of biomimetic mineralization, and the mechanical property of SF-g-PAA/HAp membrane was noticeably improved. Cell viability and adhesion assays revealed that the composite of SF-g-PAA/HAp exhibited acceptable biocompatibility and outstanding adhesion property. The present work provides a novel method for preparation of the fibroin-based biomaterial for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Hydrogels are a class of advanced material forms that closely mimic properties of the soft biological tissues. Several polymers have been explored for preparing hydrogels with structural and functional features resembling that of the extracellular matrix. Favourable material properties, biocompatibility and easy processing of silk protein fibers into several forms make it a suitable material for biomedical applications. Hydrogels made from silk proteins have shown a potential in overcoming limitations of hydrogels prepared from conventional polymers. A great deal of effort has been made to control the properties and to integrate novel topographical and functional characteristics in the hydrogel composed from silk proteins. This review provides overview of the advances in silk protein-based hydrogels with a primary emphasis on hydrogels of fibroin. It describes the approaches used to fabricate fibroin hydrogels. Attempts to improve the existing properties or to incorporate new features in the hydrogels by making composites and by improving fibroin properties by genetic engineering approaches are also described. Applications of the fibroin hydrogels in the realms of tissue engineering and controlled release are reviewed and their future potentials are discussed. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE This review describes the potentiality of silk fibroin hydrogel. Silk Fibroin has been widely recognized as an interesting biomaterial. Due to its properties including high mechanical strength and excellent biocompatibility, it has gained wide attention. Several groups are exploring silk-based materials including films, hydrogels, nanofibers and nanoparticles for different biomedical applications. Although there is a good amount of literature available on general properties and applications of silk based biomaterials, there is an inadequacy of extensive review articles that specifically focus on silk based hydrogels. Silk-based hydrogels have a strong potential to be utilized in biomedical applications. Our work is an effort to highlight the research that has been done in the area of silk-based hydrogels. It aims to provide an overview of the advances that have been made and the future course available. It will provide an overview of the silk-based hydrogels as well as may direct the readers to the specific areas of application.
