Abstract
Bones can form the scaffolding of the body, support the organism, coordinate somatic movements, and control mineral homeostasis and hematopoiesis. The immune system plays immune supervisory, defensive, and regulatory roles in the organism, which mainly consists of immune organs (spleen, bone marrow, tonsils, lymph nodes, etc.), immune cells (granulocytes, platelets, lymphocytes, etc.), and immune molecules (immune factors, interferons, interleukins, tumor necrosis factors, etc.). Bone and the immune system have long been considered two distinct fields of study, and the bone marrow, as a shared microenvironment between the bone and the immune system, closely links the two. Osteoimmunology organically combines bone and the immune system, elucidates the role of the immune system in bone, and creatively emphasizes its interdisciplinary characteristics and the function of immune cells and factors in maintaining bone homeostasis, providing new perspectives for skeletal-related field research. In recent years, bone immunology has gradually become a hot spot in the study of bone-related diseases. As a new branch of immunology, bone immunology emphasizes that the immune system can directly or indirectly affect bones through the RANKL/RANK/OPG signaling pathway, IL family, TNF-α, TGF-β, and IFN-γ. These effects are of great significance for understanding inflammatory bone loss caused by various autoimmune or infectious diseases. In addition, as an external environment that plays an important role in immunity and bone, this study pays attention to the role of exercise-mediated bone immunity in bone reconstruction.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 260:129407. [PMID: 38224805 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129407] [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: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
The utilization of 3D printing has become increasingly common in the construction of composite scaffolds. In this study, magnetic mesoporous bioactive glass (MMBG) was incorporated into polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) to construct extrusion-based 3D printed scaffold. After fabrication of the PHB/MMBG composite scaffolds, they were coated with chitosan (Cs) and chitosan/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Cs/MWCNTs) solutions utilizing deep coating method. FTIR was conducted to confirm the presence of Cs and MWCNTs on the scaffolds' surface. The findings of mechanical analysis illustrated that presence of Cs/MWCNTs on the composite scaffolds increases compressive young modulus significantly, from 16.5 to 42.2 MPa. According to hydrophilicity evaluation, not only MMBG led to decrease the contact angle of pure PHB but also scaffolds surface modification utilization of Cs and MWCNTs, the contact angle decreased significantly from 82.34° to 54.15°. Furthermore, investigation of cell viability, cell metabolism and inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) proved that the scaffolds not only do not stimulate the immune system, but also polarize macrophage cells from M1 phase to M2 phase. The present study highlights the suitability of 3D printed scaffold PHB/MMBG with Cs/MWCNTs coating for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Vascularization remains a major challenge in tissue engineering. In tissue repair with the involvement of biomaterials, both the material properties and material-induced immune response can affect angiogenesis. However, there is a scarcity of research on biomaterials that modulate angiogenesis simultaneously from both perspectives. Meanwhile, the effects and mechanisms of biomaterial-induced macrophages on angiogenesis remain controversial. In this study, a cytokine-controlled release system from our previous work was employed, and the effects thereof on angiogenesis through both direct and indirect means were investigated. Alginate/chitosan multilayer films were fabricated on interleukin (IL)-4-loaded titania nanotubes to achieve a sustained release of IL-4. The released IL-4 and the multilayers synergistically promoted angiogenic behaviors of endothelial cells (ECs), while up-regulating the expression of early vascular markers. Furthermore, polarized macrophages (both M1 and M2) notably elevated the expression of late vascular markers in ECs via the high expression of pro-maturation factor angiogenin-1. After subcutaneous implantation, the IL-4-loaded implants induced increased neovascularization in a short period, with the surrounding tissue returning to normal at the later stage. Therefore, the proposed IL-4-loaded implants exhibited superior pro-angiogenic capability in vitro and in vivo through both direct stimulation of ECs and the indirect induction of a suitable immune microenvironment.

Abstract
The osseointegration of metallic implants is reliant on a cascade of molecular interactions and the delivery of macromolecules to the implant environment that occurs before substantial bone formation. Early blood vessel formation is a requisite first step in the healing timeline for osteoid formation, where vascular development can be accelerated as a result of controlled hypoxic conditioning. In this study, alginate-derived xerogel films containing varied concentrations of disodium succinate salt which has been shown to induce pseudohypoxia (short-term hypoxic effects while maintaining an oxygenated environment) were developed. Xerogels were characterized for their morphology, succinate release over time and cellular response with osteoblast-mimicking Saos-2 and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Scanning electron microscopy revealed a multiscale topography that may favour osseointegration and alamarBlue assays indicated no cytotoxic effects during in vitro proliferation of Saos-2 cells. pH measurements of eluted succinate reach 95 % of peak value after 7 h of immersion for all gels containing 10 mM of succinate or less, and 60 % within the first 40 min. In vitro exposure of HUVECs to succinate-conditioned media increased the net concentration of total proteins measured by bicinchoninic acid (BCA) assay and maintains stable vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and extracellular platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) for vessel formation through comparison of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) of the culture media and cell lysate. Tube formation assays also showed a sustained increase in tube diameter across the first 48 h of HUVEC culture when succinate concentrations of 1 and 10 μM in the xerogel. Overall, the succinate-alginate films serve as a prospective organic coating for bone-interfacing implant materials which may induce temporary pseudohypoxic conditions favourable for early angiogenesis and bone regeneration in vivo at succinate concentrations of 1 or 10 μM.

Self-reinforcement hydrogel with sustainable oxygen-supply for enhanced cell ingrowth and potential tissue regeneration. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 141:213105.

Abstract
Hydrogels composed of natural biopolymers are attractive for tissue regeneration applications owing to their advantages such as biocompatibility and ease of administration, etc.. Yet, the low oxygen level and the crosslinked network inside bulk hydrogels, as well as the hypoxic status in defect areas, hamper cell viability, function, and eventual tissue repair. Herein, based on Ca2+-crosslinked alginate hydrogel, oxygen-generating calcium peroxide (CaO2) was introduced, which could provide a dynamic crosslinking alongside the CaO2 decomposition. Compared to the CaCl2-crosslinked alginate hydrogel, bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells cultured with CaO2-contained system displayed remarkably improved biological behaviors. Furthermore, in vivo evaluations were carried out on a subcutaneous implantation in rats, and the results demonstrated the importance of the local oxygen availability in a series of crucial events for tissue regeneration, such as activating cell viability, migration, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. In summary, the obtained Ca2+-crosslinked alginate hydrogel achieved a better microenvironment for cell ingrowth and potential tissue regeneration as the CaCl2 crosslinker being replaced by oxygen-generating CaO2 nanoparticles, due to its contribution in remedying the local hypoxic condition, promisingly, the release of Ca2+ makes the hydrogel to be a possible candidate scaffold for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) caused by injury may influence the patients' lifelong mobility unless there is an appropriate treatment. Tissue engineering has become a hot field to replace traditional autologous nerve transplantation due to its low surgical damage and easy-to-industrial advantages. Graphene (GR) is a kind of carbon nanomaterial with good electrical and mechanical properties that satisfy the demand for a good tissue scaffold for nerve regeneration. Herein, a novel and biosafe hydrogel is fabricated by using graphene and sodium alginate (GR-SA) together. This hydrogel not only can mimic the nerve growth microenvironment but also can promote the expression of neurotrophic substances and growth factors. Additionally, GR-SA hydrogel can significantly reduce inflammatory factors. Moreover, the results of both in vitro and in vivo tests demonstrate that GR-SA hydrogel has a promising prospect in PNI regeneration.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) and its alloys have been demonstrated over the last decades to play an important role as inert materials in the field of orthopedic and dental implants. Nevertheless, with the widespread use of Ti, implant-associated rejection issues have arisen. To overcome these problems, antibacterial properties, fast and adequate osseointegration and long-term stability are essential features. Indeed, surface modification is currently presented as a versatile strategy for developing Ti coatings with all these challenging requirements and achieve a successful performance of the implant. Numerous approaches have been investigated to obtain stable and well-organized Ti coatings that promote the tailoring of surface chemical functionalization regardless of the geometry and shape of the implant. However, among all the approaches available in the literature to functionalize the Ti surface, a promising strategy is the combination of surface pre-activation treatments typically followed by the development of intermediate anchoring layers (self-assembled monolayers, SAMs) that serve as the supporting linkage of a final active layer. Therefore, this paper aims to review the latest approaches in the biomedical area to obtain bioactive coatings onto Ti surfaces with a special focus on (i) the most employed methods for Ti surface hydroxylation, (ii) SAMs-mediated active coatings development, and (iii) the latest advances in active agent immobilization and polymeric coatings for controlled release on Ti surfaces.
