Abstract
Articular cartilage defects can lead to pain and even disability in patients and have significant socioeconomic loss. Repairing articular cartilage defects remains a long-term challenge in medicine owing to the limited ability of cartilage to regenerate. At present, the treatment methods adopted in clinical practice have many limitations, thereby necessitating the rapid development of biomaterials. Among them, decellularized biomaterials have been particularly prominent, with numerous breakthroughs in research progress and translational applications. Although many studies show that decellularized cartilage biomaterials promote tissue regeneration, any differences in cellular morphology, dynamics, and functionality among various biomaterials upon comparison have not been reported. In this study, we prepared cartilage-derived extracellular matrix (cdECM) biomaterials with different bioactive contents and various physical properties to compare their effects on the morphology, dynamics and functionality of chondrocytes. This cellular multimodal analysis of the characteristics of cdECM biomaterials provided a theoretical basis for understanding the interactions between biomaterials and cells, thus laying an experimental foundation for the translation and application of decellularized cartilage biomaterials in the treatment of cartilage defects.

A sponge-like nanofiber melatonin-loaded scaffold accelerates vascularized bone regeneration via improving mitochondrial energy metabolism. Mater Today Bio 2024; 26:101078. [PMID: 38765244 PMCID: PMC11101953 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2024] [Revised: 04/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Electrospun nanofibers have been widely employed in bone tissue engineering for their ability to mimic the micro to nanometer scale network of the native bone extracellular matrix. However, the dense fibrous structure and limited mechanical support of these nanofibers pose challenges for the treatment of critical size bone defects. In this study, we propose a facile approach for creating a three-dimensional scaffold using interconnected electrospun nanofibers containing melatonin (Scaffold@MT). The hypothesis posited that the sponge-like Scaffold@MT could potentially enhance bone regeneration and angiogenesis by modulating mitochondrial energy metabolism. Melatonin-loaded gelatin and poly-lactic-acid nanofibers were fabricated using electrospinning, then fragmented into shorter fibers. The sponge-like Scaffold@MT was created through a process involving homogenization, low-temperature lyophilization, and chemical cross-linking, while maintaining the microstructure of the continuous nanofibers. The incorporation of short nanofibers led to a low release of melatonin and increased Young's modulus of the scaffold. Scaffold@MT demonstrated positive biocompatibility by promoting a 14.2 % increase in cell proliferation. In comparison to the control group, Scaffold@MT significantly enhanced matrix mineralization by 3.2-fold and upregulated the gene expression of osteoblast-specific markers, thereby facilitating osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs). Significantly, Scaffold@MT led to a marked enhancement in the mitochondrial energy function of BMMSCs, evidenced by elevated adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, mitochondrial membrane potential, and protein expression of respiratory chain factors. Furthermore, Scaffold@MT promoted the migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and increased tube formation by 1.3 times compared to the control group, accompanied by an increase in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGFA) expression. The results of in vivo experiments indicate that the implantation of Scaffold@MT significantly improved vascularized bone regeneration in a distal femur defect in rats. Micro-computed tomography analysis conducted 8 weeks post-surgery revealed that Scaffold@MT led to optimal development of new bone microarchitecture. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses demonstrated that Scaffold@MT facilitated bone matrix deposition and new blood vessel formation at the defect site. Overall, the utilization of melatonin-loaded nanofiber sponges exhibits significant promise as a scaffold that promotes bone growth and angiogenesis, making it a viable option for the repair of critical-sized bone defects.

Abstract
Nanofibrous scaffolds, which are morphologically/structurally similar to native extracellular matrix, are ideal biomaterials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, the use of traditional electrospinning techniques to produce three-dimensional (3D) nanofibrous scaffolds with desired structural properties presents difficulty. To address this challenge, we prepared a novel liquid-phase-collected photoinitiated polymerised aerogel 3D scaffold (LPPI-AG) using the thermally induced (nanofiber) self-aggregation method after liquid-phase electrospinning of the hydroxyapatite-doped methacrylated polyvinyl alcohol/methacrylated gelatine solution obtained by photoinitiated polymerisation. The fabricated aerogel scaffolds had a high porosity of approximately 99.01% ± 0.40% and an interconnected network structure with pore sizes ranging from submicron to ∼300 μm. The new aerogel rapidly became flowable when exposed to a solution, and it can fill gaps and repair gap edges effectively and be loaded with nutrients and growth factors that promote bone growth for bone tissue engineering. LPPI-AG scaffolds can considerably promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in vitro. Furthermore, in vivo studies showed that the LPPI-AG scaffold significantly promoted bone formation in a mouse model of critical-size calvarial defects.

Abstract
Self-healing and autologous bone graft of calvaraial defects can be challenging. Therefore, the fabrication of scaffolds for its rapid and effective repair is a promising field of research. This paper provided a comparative study on the ability of Three-dimensional (3D) printed polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffolds and PCL-modified with the hydroxyapatite (HA) and bioglasses (BG) bioceramics scaffolds in newly bone formed in calvaria defect area. The studied 3D-printed PCL scaffolds were fabricated by fused deposition layer-by-layer modeling. After the evaluation of cell adhesion on the surface of the scaffolds, they were implanted into a rat calvarial defect model. The rats were divided into four groups with scaffold graft including PCL, PCL/HA, PCL/BG, and PCL/HA/BG and a non-explant control group. The capacity of the 3D-printed scaffolds in calvarial bone regeneration was investigated using micro computed tomography scan, histological and immunohistochemistry analyses. Lastly, the expression levels of several bone related genes as well as the expression of miR-20a and miR-17-5p as positive regulators and miR-125a as a negative regulator in osteogenesis pathways were also investigated. The results of this comparative study have showed that PCL scaffolds with HA and BG bioceramics have a great range of potential applications in the field of calvaria defect treatment.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) serve as essential components of regenerative medicine. Their destiny is influenced by the interaction of the cells with the external environment. In addition to the biochemical cues in a microenvironment, physical cues of the topography of the surrounding materials such as the extracellular matrix emerge as a crucial regulator of stem cell destiny and function. With recent advances in technologies of materials production and surface modification, surfaces with micro/nanotopographical characteristics can be fabricated to mimic the micro/nanoscale mechanical stimuli of the extracellular matrix environment and regulate the biological behavior of cells. Understanding the interaction of cells with the topography of a surface is conducive to the control of stem cell fate for application in regenerative medicine. However, the mechanisms by which topography affects the biological behavior of stem cells have not been fully elucidated. This review will present the effects of surface topography at the nano/micrometer scale on stem cell adhesion, morphology, proliferation, migration, and differentiation. It also focuses on discussing current theories about the sensing and recognition of surface topology cues, the transduction of the extracellular cues into plasma, and the final activation of related signaling pathways and downstream gene expression in MSCs. These insights will provide a theoretical basis for the future design of biomaterial scaffolds for application in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

Abstract
In the absence of clear molecular insight, the biological mechanism behind the use of growth factors applied in osteochondral regeneration is still unresolved. The present study aimed to resolve whether multiple growth factors applied to muscle tissue in vitro, such as TGF-β3, BMP-2 and Noggin, can lead to appropriate tissue morphogenesis with a specific osteochondrogenic nature, thereby revealing the underlying molecular interaction mechanisms during the differentiation process. Interestingly, although the results showed the typical modulatory effect of BMP-2 and TGF-β3 on the osteochondral process, and Noggin seemingly downregulated specific signals such as BMP-2 activity, we also discovered a synergistic effect between TGF-β3 and Noggin that positively influenced tissue morphogenesis. Noggin was observed to upregulate BMP-2 and OCN at specific time windows of culture in the presence of TGF-β3, suggesting a temporal time switch causing functional changes in the signaling protein. This implies that signals change their functions throughout the process of new tissue formation, which may depend on the presence or absence of specific singular or multiple signaling cues. If this is the case, the signaling cascade is far more intricate and complex than originally believed, warranting intensive future investigations so that regenerative therapies of a critical clinical nature can function properly.

Abstract
Long-segment bone defects are a common clinical challenge and abstract biomaterials are a promising therapy. Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) nanofibrous membranes prepared by electrostatic spinning have a good bone repair potential. However, there are random and aligned surface morphologies of electrostatic spun PLLA nanofibrous membranes, which can affect the migration, proliferation, and differentiation ability of cells. The role of surface morphology in the repair of long bone defects in vivo is currently unknown. In this study, random and aligned electrostatically spun PLLA nanofibrous membranes were prepared, characterised, and implanted into a femur midshaft defect mouse model. The ability of electrostatically spun PLLA nanofibrous membranes to enhance bone repair was tested using X-ray photography, high-resolution micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), and pathological section specimens. The results showed that both random and aligned electrostatically spun PLLA nanofibrous membranes enhanced bone regeneration at bone defects, but the aligned ones exhibited superior results. These results provide a theoretical basis for engineering the surface morphology of bone repair materials.

Abstract
Biomaterials for tissue scaffolds are key components in modern tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Targeted reconstructive therapies require a proper choice of biomaterial and an adequate choice of cells to be seeded on it. The introduction of stem cells, and the transdifferentiation procedures, into regenerative medicine opened a new era and created new challenges for modern biomaterials. They must not only fulfill the mechanical functions of a scaffold for implanted cells and represent the expected mechanical strength of the artificial tissue, but furthermore, they should also assure their survival and, if possible, affect their desired way of differentiation. This paper aims to review how modern biomaterials, including synthetic (i.e., polylactic acid, polyurethane, polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene terephthalate, ceramics) and natural (i.e., silk fibroin, decellularized scaffolds), both non-biodegradable and biodegradable, could influence (tissue) stem cells fate, regulate and direct their differentiation into desired target somatic cells.

Abstract
Nanotopographical cues of bone implant surface has direct influences on various cell types during the establishment of osseointegration, a prerequisite of implant bear-loading. Given the important roles of monocyte/macrophage lineage cells in bone regeneration and remodeling, the regulation of nanotopographies on macrophages and osteoclasts has arisen considerable attentions recently. However, compared to osteoblastic cells, how nanotopographies regulate macrophages and osteoclasts has not been properly summarized. In this review, the roles and interactions of macrophages, osteoclasts and osteoblasts at different stages of bone healing is firstly presented. Then, the diversity and preparation methods of nanotopographies are summarized. Special attentions are paid to the regulation characterizations of nanotopographies on macrophages polarization and osteoclast differentiation, as well as the focal adhesion-cytoskeleton mediated mechanism. Finally, an outlook is indicated of coordinating nanotopographies, macrophages and osteoclasts to achieve better osseointegration. These comprehensive discussions may not only help to guide the optimization of bone implant surface nanostructures, but also provide an enlightenment to the osteoimmune response to external implant.

A grooved porous hydroxyapatite scaffold induces osteogenic differentiation via regulation of PKA activity by upregulating miR-129-5p expression. J Periodontal Res 2022; 57:1238-1255. [PMID: 36222334 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Hydroxyapatite scaffolds with different morphologies have been widely used in bone tissue engineering. Moreover, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proven to be extensively involved in regulating bone regeneration. We developed grooved porous hydroxyapatite (HAG) scaffolds with good osteogenic efficiency. However, little is known about the role of miRNAs in HAG scaffold-mediated promotion of bone regeneration. The objective of this study was to reveal the mechanism from the perspective of differential miRNA expression. METHODS Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to perform the coculture of cells and scaffolds. The miRNA profiles were generated by a microarray assay. A synthetic miR-129-5p mimic and inhibitor were used for overexpression or inhibition. The expression of osteogenic marker mRNAs and proteins was detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), Western blotting, and immunofluorescence. An ALP activity kit and alizarin red staining (ARS) were used to measure ALP activity and mineral deposition formation. Cell migration ability was examined by wound healing and transwell assays. Protein kinase A (PKA) activity was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) after miR-129-5p transfection. Target genes were identified by a dual-luciferase reporter assay. H89 preculture evaluated the cross talk between miR-129-5p and PKA activity. Heterotopic implantation models, hematoxylin-eosin (HE), immunohistochemistry staining, and micro-CT were used to evaluate miR-129-5p osteogenesis in vivo. RESULTS miRNAs were differentially expressed during osteogenic differentiation induced by HAG in vitro and in vivo. miR-129-5p was the only highly expressed miRNA both in vitro and in vivo. miR-129-5p overexpression promoted osteoblast differentiation and cell migration, while its inhibition weakened the effect of HAG. Moreover, miR-129-5p activated PKA to regulate the phosphorylation of β-catenin and cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) by inhibiting cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor alpha (Pkia). H89 prevented the effects of miR-129-5p on osteogenic differentiation and cell migration. HE, immunohistochemistry staining and micro-CT results showed that miR-129-5p promoted in vivo osteogenesis of the HAG scaffold. CONCLUSION The HAG scaffold activates Pka by upregulating miR-129-5p and inhibiting Pkia, resulting in CREB-dependent transcriptional activation and accumulation of β-catenin and promoting osteogenic marker expression.

Abstract
Background and objective As an important mediator of intercellular interaction and formation of extracellular bone matrix, porous scaffolds are widely used for bone regeneration. Accumulating evidences demonstrate that microRNA are involved in the regulation of scaffolds-induced bone regeneration. Recently, we revealed that miR-210-3p was highly expressed during osteogenesis induced by HAG. In present study, we further explored the molecular mechanism underlying the effect of miR-210-3p on osteogenic differentiation. Materials and methods In this study, miR-210-3p mimics and inhibitors were synthesized and transfected into MC3T3-E1 cells to explore their effects on osteogenic differentiation. The expression of osteogenic marker (Alp and Runx2) were detected by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) and western blotting. After osteogenesis induction for 7 days, Alp staining were used to detected osteoblast differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. CCK8 and Transwell assays were performed to detected cell proliferation and migration. Then, top ranking list of target genes of miR-210-3p obtained from TargetScan and the expression of BDNF were detected by qRT-PCR and ELISA. The relationship between miR-210-3p and BDNF was verified by luciferase report assay. Furthermore, the effect of BDNF on osteoblast differentiation was verified by transfecting siRNA or adding BDNF to the culture medium. Results MiR-210-3p mimics markedly suppress osteogenic differentiation, cell migration and cell proliferation of MC3T3-E; nevertheless, silencing of miR-210-3p dramatically enhanced MC3T3-E1 osteogenesis, cell migration and proliferation. Furthermore, luciferase reporter assay verified that brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a directly target of miR-210-3p. Moreover, BDNF siRNA significantly decreased the expression levels of ALP and cell migration. The addition of BDNF partially rescued the inhibition of osteogenesis by miR-210-3p. Conclusion miR-210-3p inhibited the osteogenic differentiation via targeting BDNF. Our Results provide a promising target for regulating osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
Nanotopography presents an effective physical approach for biomaterial cell manipulation mediated through material-extracellular matrix interactions. The extracellular matrix that exists in the cellular microenvironment is crucial for guiding cell behaviours, such as determination of integrin ligation and interaction with growth factors. These interactions with the extracellular matrix regulate downstream mechanotransductive pathways, such as rearrangements in the cytoskeleton and activation of signal cascades. Protein adsorption onto nanotopography strongly influences the conformation and distribution density of extracellular matrix and, therefore, subsequent cell responses. In this review, we first discuss the interactive mechanisms of protein physical adsorption on nanotopography. Secondly, we summarise advances in creating nanotopographical features to instruct desired cell behaviours. Lastly, we focus on the cellular mechanotransductive pathways initiated by nanotopography. This review provides an overview of the current state-of-the-art designs of nanotopography aiming to provide better biomedical materials for the future. A comprehensive overview of nanotopography fabrication, and nanotopography regulates various cell behaviours. The interactive physical adsorption between nanotopography and extracellular matrix. Nanotopography initiates the cellular mechanotransductive pathways and downstream signalling cascades.

Abstract
More than 20 million individuals worldwide suffer from congenital or acquired bone defects annually. The development of bone scaffold materials that simulate natural bone for bone defect repair remains challenging. Recently, ncRNA-based therapies for bone defects have attracted increasing interest because of the great potential of ncRNAs in disease treatment. Various types of ncRNAs regulate gene expression in osteogenesis-related cells via multiple mechanisms. The delivery of ncRNAs to the site of bone loss through gene vectors or scaffolds is a potential therapeutic option for bone defect repair. Therefore, this study discusses and summarizes the regulatory mechanisms of miRNAs, siRNAs, and piRNAs in osteogenic signaling and reviews the widely used current RNA delivery vectors and scaffolds for bone defect repair. Additionally, current challenges and potential solutions of delivery scaffolds for bone defect repair are proposed, with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for their future clinical applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tracheal fistula (TF) treatments may involve temporary orthosis and further ablative procedures, which can lead to infection. Thus, TF requires other therapy alternatives development. The hypothesis of this work was to demonstrate the feasibility of a tissue-engineered alternative for small TF in a preclinical model. Also, its association with suture filaments enriched with adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal stem cells (AT-MSCs) was assessed to determine whether it could optimize the regenerative process. METHODS Poly (L-Lactic acid) (PLLA) membranes were manufactured by electrospinning and had morphology analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. AT-MSCs were cultured in these scaffolds and in vitro assays were performed (cytotoxicity, cellular adhesion, and viability). Subsequently, these cellular constructs were implanted in an animal small TF model. The association with suture filaments containing attached AT-MSCs was present in one animal group. After 30 d, animals were sacrificed and regenerative potential was evaluated, mainly related to the extracellular matrix remodeling, by performing histopathological (Hematoxylin-Eosin and trichrome Masson) and immunohistochemistry (Collagen I/II/III, matrix metalloproteinases-2, matrix metalloproteinases-9, vascular endothelial growth factor, and interleukin-10) analyses. RESULTS PLLA membranes presented porous fibers, randomly oriented. In vitro assays results showed that AT-MSCs attached were viable and maintained an active metabolism. Swine implanted with AT-MSCs attached to membranes and suture filaments showed aligned collagen fibers and a better regenerative progress in 30 d. CONCLUSIONS PLLA membranes with AT-MSCs attached were useful to the extracellular matrix restoration and have a high potential for small TF treatment. Also, their association with suture filaments enriched with AT-MSCs was advantageous.

Abstract
Over the past two decades in situ tissue engineering has emerged as a new approach where biomaterials are used to harness the body's own stem/progenitor cells to regenerate diseased or injured tissue. Immunomodulatory biomaterials are designed to promote a regenerative environment, recruit resident stem cells to diseased or injured tissue sites, and direct them towards tissue regeneration. This review explores advances gathered from in vitro and in vivo studies on in situ tissue regenerative therapies. Here we also examine the different ways this approach has been incorporated into biomaterial sciences in order to create customized biomaterial products for therapeutic applications in a broad spectrum of tissues and diseases. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biomaterials can be designed to recruit stem cells and coordinate their behavior and function towards the restoration or replacement of damaged or diseased tissues in a process known as in situ tissue regeneration. Advanced biomaterial constructs with precise structure, composition, mechanical, and physical properties can be transplanted to tissue site and exploit local stem cells and their micro-environment to promote tissue regeneration. In the absence of cells, we explore the critical immunomodulatory, chemical and physical properties to consider in material design and choice. The application of biomaterials for in situ tissue regeneration has the potential to address a broad range of injuries and diseases.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis, which typically arises from aging, traumatic injury, or obesity, is the most common form of arthritis, which usually leads to malfunction of the joints and requires medical interventions due to the poor self-healing capacity of articular cartilage. However, currently used medical treatment modalities have reported, at least in part, disappointing and frustrating results for patients with osteoarthritis. Recent progress in the design and fabrication of tissue-engineered microscale/nanoscale platforms, which arises from the convergence of stem cell research and nanotechnology methods, has shown promising results in the administration of new and efficient options for treating osteochondral lesions. This paper presents an overview of the recent advances in osteochondral tissue engineering resulting from the application of micro- and nanotechnology approaches in the structure of biomaterials, including biological and microscale/nanoscale topographical cues, microspheres, nanoparticles, nanofibers, and nanotubes.

Abstract
Mechanical force, being so ubiquitous that it is often taken for granted and overlooked, is now gaining the spotlight for reams of evidence corroborating their crucial roles in the living body. The bone, particularly, experiences manifold extraneous force like strain and compression, as well as intrinsic cues like fluid shear stress and physical properties of the microenvironment. Though sparkled in diversified background, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) concerning the mechanotransduction process that bone undergoes are not yet detailed in a systematic way. Our principal goal in this research is to highlight the potential lncRNA-focused mechanical signaling systems which may be adapted by bone-related cells for biophysical environment response. Based on credible lists of force-sensitive mRNAs and miRNAs, we constructed a force-responsive competing endogenous RNA network for lncRNA identification. To elucidate the underlying mechanism, we then illustrated the possible crosstalk between lncRNAs and mRNAs as well as transcriptional factors and mapped lncRNAs to known signaling pathways involved in bone remodeling and mechanotransduction. Last, we developed combinative analysis between predicted and established lncRNAs, constructing a pathway–lncRNA network which suggests interactive relationships and new roles of known factors such as H19. In conclusion, our work provided a systematic quartet network analysis, uncovered candidate force-related lncRNAs, and highlighted both the upstream and downstream processes that are possibly involved. A new mode of bioinformatic analysis integrating sequencing data, literature retrieval, and computational algorithm was also introduced. Hopefully, our work would provide a moment of clarity against the multiplicity and complexity of the lncRNA world confronting mechanical input.

Abstract
Scaffold materials used for bone defect repair are often limited by osteogenic efficacy. Moreover, microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in regulating the expression of osteogenic-related genes. In previous studies, we verified the enhancement of osteogenesis using a grooved porous hydroxyapatite scaffold (HAG). In the present study, we analyzed the contribution of HAG to the osteogenic differentiation of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPMSCs) from the perspective of miRNA differential expression. Furthermore, results showed that miRNAs were differentially expressed in the osteogenic differentiation of hPMSCs cocultured with HAG. In detail, 16 miRNAs were significantly upregulated and 29 miRNAs were downregulated with HAG. In addition, bioinformatics analyses showed that the differentially expressed miRNAs were enriched in a variety of biological processes, including signal transduction, cell metabolism, cell junctions, cell development and differentiation, and that they were associated with osteogenic differentiation through axon guidance, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and the transforming growth factor beta signaling pathway. Furthermore, multiple potential target genes of these miRNAs were closely related to osteogenic differentiation. Importantly, overexpression of miR-146a-5p (an upregulated miRNA) promoted the osteogenic differentiation of hPMSCs, and miR-145-5p overexpression (a downregulated miRNA) inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of hPMSCs.

Abstract
With advances in bone tissue engineering, various materials and methods have been explored to find a better scaffold that can help in improving bone growth and regeneration. Three-dimensional (3D) printing by fused deposition modeling can produce customized scaffolds from biodegradable polyesters such as polycaprolactone (PCL). Although the fabricated PCL scaffolds exhibited a lack of bioactivity and poor cell attachment on their surfaces, herein, using a simple postfabrication modification method with hydroxyapatite (HA) and bioglasses (BGs), we obtained better cell proliferation and attachment. Biological behavior and osteosupportive capacity of the 3D-printed scaffolds including PCL, PCL/HA, PCL/BG, and PCL/HA/BG were evaluated in this study, while human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) were cultured on the scaffolds. The cell morphology, attachment, and proliferation were investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, and 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining. In the next step, the ability of stem cells to differentiate into osteoblasts was evaluated by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium deposition, and bone-related gene and protein expression. In the end, the expression levels of miR-20a, miR-125a, and their target genes were also investigated as positive and negative regulators in osteogenesis pathways. The results showed that the coated scaffolds with bioceramics present a more appropriate surface for cell adhesion and proliferation, as well as efficient potential in inducing osteoconduction and osteointegration compared to PCL alone and control. The PCL/HA/BG scaffold exhibited higher in vitro cell viability and bone formation compared to the other groups, which can be due to the synergistic effect of HA and BG. On the whole, this tricomponent 3D-printing scaffold has a promising prospect for bone tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Scaffold-based bone tissue engineering has been introduced as an alternative treatment option for bone grafting due to limitations in the allograft. Not only physical conditions but also biological conditions such as gene expression significantly impact bone regeneration. Scaffolds in composition with bioactive molecules such as miRNA mimics provide a platform to enhance migration, proliferation, and differentiation of osteoprogenitor cells for bone regeneration. Among scaffolds, fibrous structures showed significant advantages in promoting osteogenic differentiation and bone regeneration via delivering bioactive molecules over the past decade. Here, we reviewed the bone and bone fracture healing considerations for the impact of miRNAs on bone regeneration. We also examined the methods used to improve miRNA mimics uptake by cells, the fabrication of fibrous scaffolds, and the effective delivery of miRNA mimics using fibrous scaffold and their processes for bone development. Finally, we offer our view on the principal challenges of miRNA mimics delivery by nanofibers for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
In bone tissue engineering, tailored biomaterials mimicking mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) niche could regulate cell behavior and fate decision. The mechanisms, however, remain obscure. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are critical modulators of the mechano-induced MSCs’ responses. Mechanosensitive ncRNAs could convert various physical forces into biochemical signals, and orchestrate signaling networks that regulate the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs in their unique microenvironment. In this review, we focus on the mechanosensitive ncRNAs which could interpret mechanical stimuli during the osteogenesis of MSCs, summarize the signaling pathway networks by which these ncRNAs drive MSCs fate, and point out the limitations and the areas waiting for further exploration.

Abstract
Nanofibers can mimic natural tissue structure by creating a more suitable environment for cells to grow, prompting a wide application of nanofiber materials. In this review, we include relevant studies and characterize the effect of nanofibers on mesenchymal stem cells, as well as factors that affect cell adhesion and osteogenic differentiation. We hypothesize that the process of bone regeneration in vitro is similar to bone formation and healing in vivo, and the closer nanofibers or nanofibrous scaffolds are to natural bone tissue, the better the bone regeneration process will be. In general, cells cultured on nanofibers have a similar gene expression pattern and osteogenic behavior as cells induced by osteogenic supplements in vitro. Genes involved in cell adhesion (focal adhesion kinase (FAK)), cytoskeletal organization, and osteogenic pathways (transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/bone morphogenic protein (BMP), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and Wnt) are upregulated successively. Cell adhesion and osteogenesis may be influenced by several factors. Nanofibers possess certain physical properties including favorable hydrophilicity, porosity, and swelling properties that promote cell adhesion and growth. Moreover, nanofiber stiffness plays a vital role in cell fate, as cell recruitment for osteogenesis tends to be better on stiffer scaffolds, with associated signaling pathways of integrin and Yes-associated protein (YAP)/transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ). Also, hierarchically aligned nanofibers, as well as their combination with functional additives (growth factors, HA particles, etc.), contribute to osteogenesis and bone regeneration. In summary, previous studies have indicated that upon sensing the stiffness of the nanofibrous environment as well as its other characteristics, stem cells change their shape and tension accordingly, regulating downstream pathways followed by adhesion to nanofibers to contribute to osteogenesis. However, additional experiments are needed to identify major signaling pathways in the bone regeneration process, and also to fully investigate its supportive role in fabricating or designing the optimum tissue-mimicking nanofibrous scaffolds.

Abstract
Background In recent years, H19, as one of the most well-known long non-coding RNA, has been reported to play important roles in many biological and physiological processes. H19 has been identified to regulate the osteogenic differentiation of various stem cells in many studies. However, the detailed role and regulation mechanism of H19 was not consistent in the reported studies. Main body of the manuscript In this review article we summarized the effect and mechanism of lncRNA H19 on osteogenic differentiation of various stem cells reported in the published literatures. The role and mechanism of H19, H19 expression changes, effect of H19 on cell proliferation in osteogenic differentiation were respectively reviewed. Conclusions An increasing number of studies have provided evidence that H19 play its role in the regulation of stem cell osteogenic differentiation by different mechanisms. Most of the studies favored the positive regulatory effect of H19 through lncRNA-miRNA pathway. The function and underlying mechanisms by which H19 contributes to osteogenic differentiation require further investigation.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have gained great attention as epigenetic regulators of gene expression in many tissues. Increasing evidence indicates that lncRNAs, together with microRNAs (miRNAs), play a pivotal role in osteogenesis. While miRNA action mechanism relies mainly on miRNA-mRNA interaction, resulting in suppressed expression, lncRNAs affect mRNA functionality through different activities, including interaction with miRNAs. Recent advances in RNA sequencing technology have improved knowledge into the molecular pathways regulated by the interaction of lncRNAs and miRNAs. This review reports on the recent knowledge of lncRNAs and miRNAs roles as key regulators of osteogenic differentiation. Specifically, we described herein the recent discoveries on lncRNA-miRNA crosstalk during the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow (BM), as well as from different other anatomical regions. The deep understanding of the connection between miRNAs and lncRNAs during the osteogenic differentiation will strongly improve knowledge into the molecular mechanisms of bone growth and development, ultimately leading to discover innovative diagnostic and therapeutic tools for osteogenic disorders and bone diseases.

Abstract
Due to the osteoconductive role of bioceramics, use of these bioactive nanocomposite scaffolds that can maintain their structural integrity during bone tissue repair is one of the major goals of tissue engineering. Herein, a nanofibrous poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) scaffold was fabricated by electrospinning and then gelatin and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA) were coated over the surface of the scaffold. Osteoconductivity of the fabricated nano-composite scaffolds was then studied while grafted on the rat calvarial defects. Our results indicated that the coating of PLLA scaffold with nHA and gelatin increased the adhesion and growth of the human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and also significantly increased the level of mineralization over a week culture period. The results of radiographic and histological studies showed that the newly created bone tissue at the defect site was significantly higher in animals treated with nanocomposite scaffolds than the empty scaffolds and control groups. This increase in the defect reconstruction was significantly increased after culturing BM-MSCs on the scaffolds, especially nanocomposite scaffolds. It can be concluded that the combination of nanocomposite scaffolds and BM-MSCs could be a very good candidate for treatment of bone lesions and could be considered as a bony bioimplant.

The effects of alignment and diameter of electrospun fibers on the cellular behaviors and osteogenesis of BMSCs. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING.

Abstract
Electrospun fiber scaffolds, due to their mimicry of bone extracellular matrix (ECM), have become an important biomaterial widely applied in bone tissue engineering in recent years. While topographic cues of electrospun membranes such as alignment and diameter played vital roles in determining cellular behaviors. Yet few researches about the effects of these two significant parameters on osteogenesis have been reported. Thus, the present work explored the influence of aligned and random poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) fiber matrices with diameters of nanoscale (0.6 μm) and microscale (1.2 μm), respectively, on cellular responses of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), such as cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and osteogenesis. Our results revealed that aligned nanofibers (AN) could affect cell morphology and promote the migration of BMSCs after 24 h of cell culturing. Besides, AN group was observed to possess excellent biocompatibility and have significantly improved cell growth comparing with random nanofibers. More importantly, in vitro osteogenesis researches including ALP and Alizarin Red S staining, qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that BMSCs culturing on AN group exhibited higher osteogenic induction proficiency than that on aligned microfibers (AM) and random fiber substrates (RN and RM). Accordingly, aligned nanofiber scaffolds have greater application potential in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Tissue engineering is a promising strategy to treat tissue and organ loss or damage caused by injury or disease. During the past two decades, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have attracted a tremendous amount of interest in tissue engineering due to their multipotency and self-renewal ability. MSCs are also the most multipotent stem cells in the human adult body. However, the application of MSCs in tissue engineering is relatively limited because it is difficult to guide their differentiation toward a specific cell lineage by using traditional biochemical factors. Besides biochemical factors, the differentiation of MSCs also influenced by biophysical cues. To this end, much effort has been devoted to directing the cell lineage decisions of MSCs through adjusting the biophysical properties of biomaterials. The surface topography of the biomaterial-based scaffold can modulate the proliferation and differentiation of MSCs. Presently, the development of micro- and nano-fabrication techniques has made it possible to control the surface topography of the scaffold precisely. In this review, we highlight and discuss how the main topographical features (i.e., roughness, patterns, and porosity) are an efficient approach to control the fate of MSCs and the application of topography in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Today, composite scaffolds fabricated by natural and synthetic polymers have attracted a lot of attention among researchers in the field of tissue engineering, and given their combined properties that can play a very useful role in repairing damaged tissues. In the current study, aloe vera-derived gel-blended poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) nanofibrous scaffold was fabricated by electrospinning, and then, PHBV and PHBV gel fabricated scaffolds characterized by scanning electron microscope, protein adsorption, cell attachment, tensile and cell's viability tests. After that, osteogenic supportive property of the scaffolds was studied by culturing of human-induced pluripotent stem cells on the scaffolds under osteogenic medium and evaluating of the common bone-related markers. The results showed that biocompatibility of the PHBV nanofibrous scaffold significantly improved when combined with the aloe vera gel. In addition, higher amounts of alkaline phosphatase activity, mineralization, and bone-related gene and protein expression were detected in stem cells when grown on PHBV-gel scaffold in comparison with those stem cells grown on the PHBV and culture plate. Taken together, it can be concluded that aloe vera gel-blended PHBV scaffold has a great promising osteoinductive potential that can be used as a suitable bioimplant for bone tissue engineering applications to accelerate bone regeneration and also degraded completely along with tissue regeneration.

Abstract
There has been an increasing amount of research on regenerative medicine for the treatment of bone defects. Scaffolds are needed for the formation of new bone, and various scaffolding materials have been evaluated for bone regeneration. Materials with pores that allow cells to differentiate into osteocytes are preferred in scaffolds for bone regeneration, and porous materials and fibers are well suited for this application. Electrospinning is an effective method for producing a nanosized fiber by applying a high voltage to the needle tip containing a polymer solution. The use of electrospun nanofibers is being studied in the medical field, and its use as a scaffold for bone regeneration therapy has become a topic of growing interest. In this review, we will introduce the potential use of electrospun nanofiber as a scaffold for bone regenerative medicine with a focus on carbon nanofibers produced by the electrospinning method.

Freeze-dried multiscale porous nanofibrous three dimensional scaffolds for bone regenerations. BIOIMPACTS : BI 2020; 10:73-85. [PMID: 32363151 PMCID: PMC7186540 DOI: 10.34172/bi.2020.10] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2019] [Revised: 11/28/2019] [Accepted: 12/14/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Introduction: Simulating hydrophobic-hydrophilic composite face with hierarchical porous and fibrous architectures of bone extracellular matrix (ECM) is a key aspect in bone tissue engineering. This study focused on the fabrication of new three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds containing polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), with and without graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles using the chemical cross-linking and freeze-drying methods for bone tissue application. The effects of GO on physicochemical features and osteoinduction properties of the scaffolds were evaluated through an in vitro study. Methods: After synthesizing the GO nanoparticles, two types of 3D scaffolds, PTFE/PVA (PP) and PTFE/PVA/GO (PPG), were developed by cross-linking and freeze-drying methods. The physicochemical features of scaffolds were assessed and the interaction of the 3D scaffold types with human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) including attachment, proliferation, and differentiation to osteogenic like cells were investigated. Results: GO nanoparticles were successfully synthesized with no agglomeration. The blending of PTFE as a hydrophobic polymer with PVA polymer and GO nanoparticles (hydrophilic compartments) were successful. Two types of 3D scaffolds had nano topographical structures, good porosities, hydrophilic surfaces, thermal stabilities, good stiffness, as well as supporting the cell attachments, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. Notably, GO incorporating scaffolds provided a better milieu for cell behaviors. Conclusion: Novel multiscale porous nanofibrous 3D scaffolds made from PTFE/ PVA polymers with and without GO nanoparticles could be an ideal candidate for bone tissue engineering as a 3D template.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine has been widely researched for the treatment of bone defects. In the field of bone regenerative medicine, signaling molecules and the use of scaffolds are of particular importance as drug delivery systems (DDS) or carriers for cell differentiation, and various materials have been explored for their potential use. Although calcium phosphates such as hydroxyapatite and tricalcium phosphate are clinically used as synthetic scaffold material for bone regeneration, biodegradable materials have attracted much attention in recent years for their clinical application as scaffolds due their ability to facilitate rapid localized absorption and replacement with autologous bone. In this review, we introduce the types, features, and performance characteristics of biodegradable polymer scaffolds in their role as DDS for bone regeneration therapy.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a subset of multipotent stroma cells residing in various tissues of the body. Apart from supporting the hematopoietic stem cell niche, MSCs possess strong immunoregulatory ability and multiple differentiation potentials. These powerful capacities allow the extensive application of MSCs in clinical practice as an effective treatment for diseases. Therefore, illuminating the functional mechanism of MSCs will help to improve their curative effect and promote their clinical use. Long noncoding RNA (LncRNA) is a novel class of noncoding RNA longer than 200 nt. Recently, multiple studies have demonstrated that LncRNA is widely involved in growth and development through controlling the fate of cells, including MSCs. In this review, we highlight the role of LncRNA in regulating the functions of MSCs and discuss their participation in the pathogenesis of diseases and clinical use in diagnosis and treatment.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes alleviate high phosphorus-induced vascular smooth muscle cells calcification by modifying microRNA profiles. Funct Integr Genomics 2019; 19:633-643. [PMID: 30850904 DOI: 10.1007/s10142-019-00669-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2018] [Revised: 02/04/2019] [Accepted: 02/15/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Vascular calcification is a common complication in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is an important predictor of cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality. Previous studies have confirmed that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) therapy can reduce vascular calcification, but the specific mechanism is still controversial. In this study, we aimed to investigate the mechanisms of BMSC-derived exosomes (EXO) in improving vascular calcification. BMSCs were cultured and EXO were isolated using the Total Exosome Isolation Reagent. Human aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (HA-VSMCs) were cultured into three groups: control group, high phosphorus group, and high phosphorus plus EXO group. Then, indicators related to smooth muscle cell calcification and microRNA profiles were analyzed. BMSC-derived exosomes inhibited high phosphorus-induced calcification in HA-VSMCs. Besides, EXO treatment reduced calcium content and decreased the alkaline phosphatase (AKP) activity in high phosphorus co-incubated HA-VSMCs. MicroRNA (miRNA) and mRNA expression profiles analyses revealed that 63 miRNAs were significantly upregulated and 1424 genes were significantly downregulated in HA-VSMCs after EXO treatment. Functional miRNA-gene regulatory network revealed that mTOR, MAPK, and Wnt signaling pathway were involved in vascular calcification. BMSC-derived exosomes alleviated high phosphorus-induced calcification in HA-VSMC through modifying miRNA profiles.
