Abstract
The incidence of liver diseases is high worldwide. Many factors can cause liver fibrosis, which in turn can lead to liver cirrhosis and even liver cancer. Due to the shortage of donor organs, immunosuppression, and other factors, only a few patients are able to undergo liver transplantation. Therefore, how to construct a bioartificial liver that can be transplanted has become a global research hotspot. With the rapid development of three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, researchers have tried to use various 3D bioprinting technologies to construct bioartificial livers in vitro. In terms of the choice of bioinks, liver decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) has many advantages over other materials for cell-laden hydrogel in 3D bioprinting. This review mainly summarizes the acquisition of liver dECM and its application in liver 3D bioprinting as a bioink with respect to availability, printability, and biocompatibility in many aspects and puts forward the current challenges and prospects.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) are promising stem cell sources for tissue engineering and cell-based therapy. However, long-term in vitro expansion of ADSCs impedes stemness maintenance, which is partly attributed to deprivation of their original microenvironment. Incompetent cells limit the therapeutic effects of ADSC-based clinical strategies. Therefore, reconstructing a more physiologically and physically relevant niche is an ideal strategy to address this issue and therefore facilitates the extensive application of ADSCs. Here, we transplanted separated ADSCs into local subcutaneous adipose tissues of nude mice as an in vivo cell culture model. We found that transplanted ADSCs maintained their primitive morphology and showed improved proliferation and delayed senescence compared to those of cells cultured in an incubator. Significantly increased expression of stemness-related markers and multilineage differentiation abilities were further observed in in vivo cultured ADSCs. Finally, sequencing revealed that genes whose expression differed between ADSCs obtained under in vivo and in vitro conditions were mainly located in the extracellular matrix and extracellular space and that these genes participate in regulating transcription and protein synthesis. Moreover, we found that an Egr1 signaling pathway might exert a crucial impact on controlling stemness properties. Our findings might collectively pave the way for ADSC-based applications.

Abstract
Neonatal spinal cord tissues exhibit remarkable regenerative capabilities as compared to adult spinal cord tissues after injury, but the role of extracellular matrix (ECM) in this process has remained elusive. Here, we found that early developmental spinal cord had higher levels of ECM proteins associated with neural development and axon growth, but fewer inhibitory proteoglycans, compared to those of adult spinal cord. Decellularized spinal cord ECM from neonatal (DNSCM) and adult (DASCM) rabbits preserved these differences. DNSCM promoted proliferation, migration, and neuronal differentiation of neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and facilitated axonal outgrowth and regeneration of spinal cord organoids more effectively than DASCM. Pleiotrophin (PTN) and Tenascin (TNC) in DNSCM were identified as contributors to these abilities. Furthermore, DNSCM demonstrated superior performance as a delivery vehicle for NPCs and organoids in spinal cord injury (SCI) models. This suggests that ECM cues from early development stages might significantly contribute to the prominent regeneration ability in spinal cord.

Novel approach for reconstruction of the three-dimensional biliary system in decellularized liver scaffold using hepatocyte progenitors. PLoS One 2024; 19:e0297285. [PMID: 38359035 PMCID: PMC10868823 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0297285] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/17/2024] Open
Abstract
Reconstruction of the biliary system is indispensable for the regeneration of transplantable liver grafts. Here, we report the establishment of the first continuous three-dimensional biliary system scaffold for bile acid excretion using a novel method. We confirmed the preservation of the liver-derived extracellular matrix distribution in the scaffold. In addition, hepatocyte progenitors decellularized via the bile duct by slow-speed perfusion differentiated into hepatocyte- and cholangiocyte-like cells, mimicking hepatic cords and bile ducts, respectively. Furthermore, qRT-PCR demonstrated increased ALB, BSEP, and AQP8 expression, revealing bile canaliculi- and bile duct-specific genetic patterns. Therefore, we concluded that locally preserved extracellular matrices in the scaffold stimulated hepatic progenitors and provided efficient differentiation, as well as regeneration of a three-dimensional continuous biliary system from hepatic cords through bile ducts. These findings suggest that organ-derived scaffolds can be utilized for the efficient reconstruction of functional biliary systems.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering using different scaffolds is a new therapeutic approach in regenerative medicine. This study explored the osteogenic potential of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) grown on a hydrolytically modified poly(L-lactide-co-caprolactone) (PLCL) electrospun scaffold and a non-woven hyaluronic acid (HYAFF-11™) mesh. The adhesion, immunophenotype, and osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs seeded on PLCL and HYAFF-11™ scaffolds were analyzed. The results showed that PLCL and HYAFF-11™ scaffolds significantly supported hDPSCs adhesion; however, hDPSCs' adhesion rate was significantly higher on PLCL than on HYAFF-11™. SEM analysis confirmed good adhesion of hDPSCs on both scaffolds before and after osteogenesis. Alizarin red S staining showed mineral deposits on both scaffolds after hDPSCs osteogenesis. The mRNA levels of runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), collagen type I (Coll-I), osterix (Osx), osteocalcin (Ocn), osteopontin (Opn), bone sialoprotein (Bsp), and dentin sialophosphoprotein (Dspp) gene expression and their proteins were higher in hDPSCs after osteogenic differentiation on both scaffolds compared to undifferentiated hDPSCs on PLCL and HYAFF-11™. These results showed that PLCL scaffolds provide a better environment that supports hDPSCs attachment and osteogenic differentiation than HYAFF-11™. The high mRNA of early osteogenic gene expression and mineral deposits observed after hDPSCs osteogenesis on a PLCL mat indicated its better impact on hDPSCs' osteogenic potential than that of HYAFF-11™, and hDPSC/PLCL constructs might be considered in the future as an innovative approach to bone defect repair.

Regional and disease-specific glycosaminoglycan composition and function in decellularized human lung extracellular matrix. Acta Biomater 2023; 168:388-399. [PMID: 37433361 PMCID: PMC10528722 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.06.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2023] [Revised: 06/16/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023]
Abstract
Decellularized lung scaffolds and hydrogels are increasingly being utilized in ex vivo lung bioengineering. However, the lung is a regionally heterogenous organ with proximal and distal airway and vascular compartments of different structures and functions that may be altered as part of disease pathogenesis. We previously described decellularized normal whole human lung extracellular matrix (ECM) glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composition and functional ability to bind matrix-associated growth factors. We now determine differential GAG composition and function in airway, vascular, and alveolar-enriched regions of decellularized lungs obtained from normal, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) patients. Significant differences were observed in heparan sulfate (HS), chondroitin sulfate (CS), and hyaluronic acid (HA) content and CS/HS compositions between both different lung regions and between normal and diseased lungs. Surface plasmon resonance demonstrated that HS and CS from decellularized normal and COPD lungs similarly bound fibroblast growth factor 2, but that binding was decreased in decellularized IPF lungs. Binding of transforming growth factor β to CS was similar in all three groups but binding to HS was decreased in IPF compared to normal and COPD lungs. In addition, cytokines dissociate faster from the IPF GAGs than their counterparts. The differences in cytokine binding features of IPF GAGs may result from different disaccharide compositions. The purified HS from IPF lung is less sulfated than that from other lungs, and the CS from IPF contains more 6-O-sulfated disaccharide. These observations provide further information for understanding functional roles of ECM GAGs in lung function and disease. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Lung transplantation remains limited due to donor organ availability and need for life-long immunosuppressive medication. One solution, the ex vivo bioengineering of lungs via de- and recellularization has not yet led to a fully functional organ. Notably, the role of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) remaining in decellularized lung scaffolds is poorly understood despite their important effects on cell behaviors. We have previously investigated residual GAG content of native and decellularized lungs and their respective functionality, and role during scaffold recellularization. We now present a detailed characterization of GAG and GAG chain content and function in different anatomical regions of normal diseased human lungs. These are novel and important observations that further expand knowledge about functional GAG roles in lung biology and disease.

Abstract
Senescent cells promote progressive tissue degeneration through the establishment of a combined inflammatory and trophic microenvironment. The cellular senescence state has therefore emerged as a central driving mechanism of numerous age-related diseases, including osteoarthritis (OA), the most common rheumatic disease. Senescence hallmarks are detectable in chondrocytes, synoviocytes and sub-chondral bone cells. This study investigates how the senescence-driven microenvironment could impact the cell fate of resident osteoarticular mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) that are hence contributing to OA disease progression. For that purpose, we performed a comparative gene expression analysis of MSCs isolated from healthy donors that were in vitro chronically exposed either to interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) or Transforming Growth Factor beta 1 (TGFβ1), two archetypical factors produced by senescent cells. Both treatments reduced MSC self-renewal capacities by upregulating different senescence-driven cycle-dependent kinase inhibitors. Furthermore, a common set of differentially expressed genes was identified in both treated MSCs that was also found enriched in MSCs isolated from OA patients. These findings highlight an imprinting of OA MSCs by the senescent joint microenvironment that changes their matrisome gene expression. Altogether, this research gives new insights into OA etiology and points to new innovative therapeutic opportunities to treat OA patients.

Abstract
In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has been widely utilized as a novel manufacturing technique by more and more researchers to construct various tissue substitutes with complex architectures and geometries. Different biomaterials, including natural and synthetic materials, have been manufactured into bioinks for tissue regeneration using 3D bioprinting. Among the natural biomaterials derived from various natural tissues or organs, the decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) has a complex internal structure and a variety of bioactive factors that provide mechanistic, biophysical, and biochemical signals for tissue regeneration and remodeling. In recent years, more and more researchers have been developing the dECM as a novel bioink for the construction of tissue substitutes. Compared with other bioinks, the various ECM components in dECM-based bioink can regulate cellular functions, modulate the tissue regeneration process, and adjust tissue remodeling. Therefore, we conducted this review to discuss the current status of and perspectives on dECM-based bioinks for bioprinting in tissue engineering. In addition, the various bioprinting techniques and decellularization methods were also discussed in this study.

Abstract
Over the past decade, stem cell- and tumor-derived organoids are the most promising models in developmental biology and disease modeling, respectively. The matrix is one of three main elements in the construction of an organoid and the most important module of its extracellular microenvironment. However, the source of the currently available commercial matrix, Matrigel, limits the application of organoids in clinical medicine. It is worth investigating whether the original decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) can be exploited as the matrix of organoids and improving organoid construction are very important. In this review, tissue decellularization protocols and the characteristics of decellularization methods, the mechanical support and biological cues of extraccellular matrix (ECM), methods for construction of multifunctional dECM and responsive dECM hydrogel, and the potential applications of functional dECM are summarized. In addition, some expectations are provided for dECM as the matrix of organoids in clinical applications.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease has become one of the most globally prevalent diseases, and autologous or vascular graft transplantation has been the main treatment for the end stage of the disease. However, there are no commercialized small-diameter vascular graft (SDVG) products available. The design of SDVGs is promising in the future, and SDVG preparation using an in vitro bioreactor is a favorable method, but it faces the problem of long-term culture of >8 weeks. Herein, we used different oxygen (O2) concentrations and mechanical stimulation to induce greater secretion of extracellular matrix (ECM) from cells in vitro to rapidly prepare SDVGs. Culturing with 2% O2 significantly increased the production of the ECM components and growth factors of human dermal fibroblasts (hDFs). To accelerate the formation of ECM, hDFs were seeded on a polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold and cultured in a flow culture bioreactor with 2% O2 for only 3 weeks. After orthotopic transplantation in rat abdominal aorta, the cultured SDVGs (PCL-decellularized ECM) showed excellent endothelialization and smooth muscle regeneration. The vascular grafts cultured with hypoxia and mechanical stimulation could accelerate the reconstruction speed and obtain an improved therapeutic effect and thereby provide a new research direction for improving the production and supply of SDVGs.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are considered promising candidates for regenerative medicine applications. Their clinical performance postimplantation, however, has been disappointing. This lack of therapeutic efficacy is most likely due to suboptimal formulations of MSC-containing material constructs. Tissue engineers, therefore, have developed strategies addressing/incorporating optimized cell, microenvironmental, biochemical, and biophysical cues/stimuli to enhance MSC-containing construct performance. Such approaches have had limited success because they overlooked that maintenance of MSC viability after implantation for a sufficient time is necessary for MSCs to develop their regenerative functionalities fully. Following a brief overview of glucose metabolism and regulation in MSCs, the present literature review includes recent pertinent findings that challenge old paradigms and notions. We hereby report that glucose is the primary energy substrate for MSCs, provides precursors for biomass generation, and regulates MSC functions, including proliferation and immunosuppressive properties. More importantly, glucose metabolism is central in controlling in vitro MSC expansion, in vivo MSC viability, and MSC-mediated angiogenesis postimplantation when addressing MSC-based therapies. Meanwhile, in silico models are highlighted for predicting the glucose needs of MSCs in specific regenerative medicine settings, which will eventually enable tissue engineers to design viable and potent tissue constructs. This new knowledge should be incorporated into developing novel effective MSC-based therapies. Impact statement The clinical use of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has been unsatisfactory due to the inability of MSCs to survive and be functional after implantation for sufficient periods to mediate directly or indirectly a successful regenerative tissue response. The present review summarizes the endeavors in the past, but, most importantly, reports the latest findings that elucidate underlying mechanisms and identify glucose metabolism as the crucial parameter in MSC survival and the subsequent functions pertinent to new tissue formation of importance in tissue regeneration applications. These latest findings justify further basic research and the impetus for developing new strategies to improve the modalities and efficacy of MSC-based therapies.

Abstract
With the proven relationship between oral and general health and the growing aging population, it is pivotal to provide accessible therapeutic approaches to regenerate oral tissues and restore clinical function. However, despite sharing many core concepts with medicine, dentistry has fallen behind the progress in precision medicine and regenerative treatments. Stem cell therapies are a promising avenue for tissue regeneration, however, ethical, safety and cost issues may limit their clinical use. With the significance of paracrine signalling in stem cell and tissue regeneration, extracellular space comprising of the cell secretome, and the extracellular matrix can serve as a potent source for tissue regeneration. Extravesicles are secreted and naturally occurring vesicles with biologically active cargo that can be harvested from the extracellular space. These vesicles have shown great potential as disease biomarkers and can be used in regenerative medicine. As a cell free therapy, secretome and extracellular vesicles can be stored and transferred easily and pose less ethical and safety risks in clinical application. Since there are currently many reviews on the secretome and the biogenesis, characterization and function of extracellular vesicles, here we look at the therapeutic potential of extracellular space to drive oral tissue regeneration and the current state of the field in comparison to regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Hydrogels have been extensively used as scaffolds in tissue engineering for cell adhesion, proliferation, migration, and differentiation because of their high-water content and biocompatibility similarity to the extracellular matrix. However, submicron or nanosized pore networks within hydrogels severely limit cell survival and tissue regeneration. In recent years, the application of macroporous hydrogels in tissue engineering has received considerable attention. The macroporous structure not only facilitates nutrient transportation and metabolite discharge but also provides more space for cell behavior and tissue formation. Several strategies for creating and functionalizing macroporous hydrogels have been reported. This review began with an overview of the advantages and challenges of macroporous hydrogels in the regulation of cellular behavior. In addition, advanced methods for the preparation of macroporous hydrogels to modulate cellular behavior were discussed. Finally, future research in related fields was discussed.

Abstract
Organoids that mimic the structural and cellular characteristics of kidneys in vitro have recently emerged as a promising source for biomedical research. However, uncontrollable cellular heterogeneity after differentiation often results in the generation of off-target cells, one of the most challenging issues in organoid research. This study proposes a new method that enables the real-time assessment of kidney organoids derived from stem cells. When placed on a conductive surface, these organoids generate unique electrochemical signals at ≈0.3 V with intensities proportional to the amount of kidney-specific cell types. Off-target cells (i.e., non-kidney cells) produce an electrical signature at 0 V that is distinguishable from other surrounding cell types, enabling non-destructive assessment of both the differentiation, and maturation levels of kidney organoids. The developed platform can be applied to other types of organoids and is thus highly promising as a tool for organoid-based drug screening, toxicity assessment, and therapeutics.

Abstract
Bioelectronic devices have received the massive attention because of their huge potential to develop the core electronic components for biocomputing system. Up to now, numerous bioelectronic devices have been reported such as biomemory and biologic gate by employment of biomolecules including metalloproteins and nucleic acids. However, the intrinsic limitations of biomolecules such as instability and low signal production hinder the development of novel bioelectronic devices capable of performing various novel computing functions. As a way to overcome these limitations, nanomaterials have the great potential and wide applicability to grant and extend the electronic functions, and improve the inherent properties from biomolecules. Accordingly, lots of nanomaterials including the conductive metal, graphene, and transition metal dichalcogenide nanomaterials are being used to develop the remarkable functional bioelectronic devices like the multi-bit biomemory and resistive random-access biomemory. This review discusses the nanomaterial-based superb bioelectronic devices including the biomemory, biologic gates, and bioprocessors. In conclusion, this review will provide the interdisciplinary information about utilization of various novel nanomaterials applicable for biocomputing system.

Abstract
In our previous study, we showed that discarded cardiac tissue from the right atrial appendage and right ventricular myocardium is an available source of functional endothelial and smooth muscle cells for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. In the study, we aimed to find out what benefits are given by vascular cells from cardiac explants used for seeding on vascular patches engrafted to repair vascular defects in vivo. Additionally, to make the application of these cells safer in regenerative medicine we tested an in vitro approach that arrested mitotic division to avoid the potential tumorigenic effect of dividing cells. A tissue-engineered construction in the form of a patch based on a polycaprolactone-gelatin scaffold and seeded with endothelial and smooth muscle cells was implanted into the abdominal aorta of immunodeficient SCID mice. Aortic patency was assessed using ultrasound, MRI, immunohistochemical and histological staining. Endothelial and smooth muscle cells were treated with mitomycin C at a therapeutic concentration of 10 μg/ml for 2 h with subsequent analysis of cell proliferation and function. The absence of the tumorigenic effect of mitomycin C-treated cells, as well as their angiogenic potential, was examined by injecting them into immunodeficient mice. Cell-containing patches engrafted in the abdominal aorta of immunodeficient mice form the vessel wall loaded with the appropriate cells and extracellular matrix, and do not interfere with normal patency. Endothelial and smooth muscle cells treated with mitomycin C show no tumorigenic effect in the SCID immunodeficient mouse model. During in vitro experiments, we have shown that treatment with mitomycin C does not lead to a decrease in cell viability. Despite the absence of proliferation, mitomycin C-treated vascular cells retain specific cell markers, produce specific extracellular matrix, and demonstrate the ability to stimulate angiogenesis in vivo. We pioneered an approach to arresting cell division with mitomycin C in endothelial and smooth muscle cells from cardiac explant, which prevents the risk of malignancy from dividing cells in vascular surgery. We believe that this approach to the fabrication of tissue-engineered constructs based on mitotically inactivated cells from waste postoperative material may be valuable to bring closer the development of safe cell products for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Contributing to organ formation and tissue regeneration, extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents provide tissue with three-dimensional (3D) structural integrity and cellular-function regulation. Containing the crucial traits of the cellular microenvironment, ECM substitutes mediate cell-matrix interactions to prompt stem-cell proliferation and differentiation for 3D organoid construction in vitro or tissue regeneration in vivo. However, these ECMs are often applied generically and have yet to be extensively developed for specific cell types in 3D cultures. Cultured cells also produce rich ECM, particularly stromal cells. Cellular ECM improves 3D culture development in vitro and tissue remodeling during wound healing after implantation into the host as well. Gaining better insight into ECM derived from either tissue or cells that regulate 3D tissue reconstruction or organ regeneration helps us to select, produce, and implant the most suitable ECM and thus promote 3D organoid culture and tissue remodeling for in vivo regeneration. Overall, the decellularization methodologies and tissue/cell-derived ECM as scaffolds or cellular-growth supplements used in cell propagation and differentiation for 3D tissue culture in vitro are discussed. Moreover, current preclinical applications by which ECM components modulate the wound-healing process are reviewed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For decades, regenerative medicine and dentistry have been improved with new therapies and innovative clinical protocols. The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate through a critical review the recent innovations in the field of bone regeneration with a focus on the healing potentials and clinical protocols of bone substitutes combined with engineered constructs, growth factors and photobiomodulation applications. METHODS A Boolean systematic search was conducted by PubMed/Medline, PubMed/Central, Web of Science and Google scholar databases according to the PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS After the initial screening, a total of 304 papers were considered eligible for the qualitative synthesis. The articles included were categorized according to the main topics: alloplastic bone substitutes, autologous teeth derived substitutes, xenografts, platelet-derived concentrates, laser therapy, microbiota and bone metabolism and mesenchymal cells construct. CONCLUSIONS The effectiveness of the present investigation showed that the use of biocompatible and bio-resorbable bone substitutes are related to the high-predictability of the bone regeneration protocols, while the oral microbiota and systemic health of the patient produce a clinical advantage for the long-term success of the regeneration procedures and implant-supported restorations. The use of growth factors is able to reduce the co-morbidity of the regenerative procedure ameliorating the post-operative healing phase. The LLLT is an adjuvant protocol to improve the soft and hard tissues response for bone regeneration treatment protocols.

Abstract
Liver transplantation is the only definitive treatment for many diseases that affect this organ, however, its quantity and viability are reduced. The study of liver scaffolds based on an extracellular matrix is a tissue bioengineering strategy with great application in regenerative medicine. Collectively, recent studies suggest that liver scaffold transplantation may assist in reestablishing hepatic function in preclinical diseased animals, which represents a great potential for application as a treatment for patients with liver disease in the future. This review focuses on useful strategies to promote liver scaffold transplantation and the main open questions about this context. We outline the current knowledge about ex vivo bioengineered liver transplantation, including the surgical techniques, recipient survival time, scaffold preparation before transplantation, and liver disease models. We also highlight the current limitations and future directions regarding in vivo bioengineering techniques.

Abstract
Stem cell therapies, including stem cell transplantation and rejuvenation of stem cells in situ, are promising avenues for tackling a broad range of diseases. Stem cells can both self-renew and differentiate into other cell types, and play a significant role in the regulation of tissue homeostasis and regeneration after cell degeneration or injury. However, stem cell exhaustion or dysfunction increases with age and impedes the normal function of multiple tissues and systems. Thus, stem cell therapies could provide a solution to aging and age-associated diseases. Here, we discuss recent advances in understanding the mechanisms that regulate stem cell regeneration. We also summarize potential strategies for rejuvenating stem cells that leverage intrinsic and extrinsic factors. These approaches may pave the way toward therapeutic interventions aiming at extending both health and life span.

Curr Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 17:606-620.

Abstract
Collagen is an important macromolecule of extracellular matrix (ECM) in bones, teeth, and temporomandibular joints. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) interact with the components of the ECM such as collagen, proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), and several proteins on behalf of variable matrix elasticity and bioactive cues. Synthetic collagen-based biomaterials could be effective scaffolds for regenerative dentistry applications due to mimicking of host tissues' ECM. These biomaterials are biocompatible, biodegradable, readily available, and non-toxic to cells whose capability promotes cellular response and wound healing in the craniofacial region. Collagen could incorporate other biomolecules to induce mineralization in calcified tissues such as bone and tooth. Moreover, the addition of these molecules or other polymers to collagen-based biomaterials could enhance mechanical properties, which is important in load-bearing areas such as the mandible. A literature review was performed via reliable internet database (mainly PubMed) based on MeSH keywords. This review first describes the properties of collagen as a key protein in the structure of hard tissues. Then, it introduces different types of collagens, the correlation between collagen and MSCs, and the methods used to modify collagen in regenerative dentistry including recent progression on the regeneration of periodontium, dentin-pulp complex, and temporomandibular joint by applying collagen. Besides, the prospects and challenges of collagen-based biomaterials in the craniofacial region pointes out.

A Novel Vitronectin Peptide Facilitates Differentiation of Oligodendrocytes from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells (Synthetic ECM for Oligodendrocyte Differentiation). BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10121254.

Abstract
Simple Summary Oligodendrocyte (OD) is a cell type of great interest in the regenerative medicine for several neurological diseases. This study provides a new defined coating material for the differentiation of ODs from human pluripotent stem cells. A new peptide named VNP2, designed by in silico simulation, can be readily produced in a large amount and stably immobilized on the bottom of culture vessel. Upon using for differentiation of ODs, VNP2 promoted the differentiation efficiency more than the conventional coating materials did. Furthermore, transcriptomic analysis revealed molecular clues for the differentiation promoting activity of VNP2. Therefore, this peptide may be used as a favored coating material for the culture and differentiation of ODs. Abstract Differentiation of oligodendrocytes (ODs) presents a challenge in regenerative medicine due to their role in various neurological diseases associated with dysmyelination and demyelination. Here, we designed a peptide derived from vitronectin (VN) using in silico docking simulation and examined its use as a synthetic substrate to support the differentiation of ODs derived from human pluripotent stem cells. The designed peptide, named VNP2, promoted OD differentiation induced by the overexpression of SOX10 in OD precursor cells compared with Matrigel and full-length VN. ODs differentiated on VNP2 exhibited greater contact with axon-mimicking nanofibers than those differentiated on Matrigel. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the genes associated with morphogenesis, cytoskeleton remodeling, and OD differentiation were upregulated in cells grown on VNP2 compared with cells grown on Matrigel. This new synthetic VN-derived peptide can be used to develop a culture environment for efficient OD differentiation.

Molecular differences of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells between non-responders and responders in treatment of transphincteric perianal fistulas. Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 12:586.

Abstract
Background Injection of autologous adipose tissue (AT) has recently been demonstrated to be an effective and safe treatment for anal fistulas. AT mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) mediate the healing process, but the relationship between molecular characteristics of AT-MSCs of the injected AT and fistula healing has not been adequately studied. Thus we aimed to characterize the molecular and functional properties of AT-MSCs isolated from autologous AT injected as a treatment of cryptogenic high transsphincteric perianal fistulas and correlate these findings to the healing process.
Methods 27 patients (age 45 ± 2 years) diagnosed with perianal fistula were enrolled in the study and treated with autologous AT injected around the anal fistula tract. AT-MSCs were isolated for cellular and molecular analyses. The fistula healing was evaluated by MRI scanning after 6 months of treatment. AT-MSC phenotype was compared between responders and non-responders with respect to fistula healing. Results 52% of all patients exhibited clinical healing of the fistulas as evaluated 6 months after last injection. Cultured AT-MSCs in the responder group had a lower short-term proliferation rate and higher osteoblast differentiation potential compared to non-responder AT-MSCs. On the other hand, adipocyte differentiation potential of AT-MSCs was higher in non-responder group. Interestingly, AT-MSCs of responders exhibited lower expression of inflammatory and senescence associated genes such as IL1B, NFKB, CDKN2A, TPB3,TGFB1. Conclusion Our data suggest that cellular quality of the injected AT-MSCs including cell proliferation, differentiation capacity and secretion of proinflammatory molecules may provide a possible mechanism underlying fistula healing. Furthermore, these biomarkers may be useful to predict a positive fistula healing outcome.

Abstract
There are different types of skin diseases due to chronic injuries that impede the natural healing process of the skin. Tissue engineering (TE) has focused on the development of bioengineered skin or skin substitutes that cover the wound, providing the necessary care to restore the functionality of injured skin. There are two types of substitutes: acellular skin substitutes (ASSs), which offer a low response of the body, and cellular skin substitutes (CSSs), which incorporate living cells and appear as a great alternative in the treatment of skin injuries due to them presenting a greater interaction and integration with the rest of the body. For the development of a CSS, it is necessary to select the most suitable biomaterials, cell components, and methodology of biofabrication for the wound to be treated. Moreover, these CSSs are immature substitutes that must undergo a maturing process in specific bioreactors, guaranteeing their functionality. The bioreactor simulates the natural state of maturation of the skin by controlling parameters such as temperature, pressure, or humidity, allowing a homogeneous maturation of the CSSs in an aseptic environment. The use of bioreactors not only contributes to the maturation of the CSSs, but also offers a new way of obtaining large sections of skin substitutes or natural skin from small portions acquired from the patient, donor, or substitute. Based on the innovation of this technology and the need to develop efficient CSSs, this work offers an update on bioreactor technology in the field of skin regeneration.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a congenital genetic disorder mainly manifested as bone fragility and recurrent fracture. Mutation of COL1A1/COL1A2 genes encoding the type I collagen are most responsible for the clinical patients. Allogenic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) provide the potential to treat OI through differentiation into osteoblasts. Autologous defective MSCs have not been utilized in OI treatment mainly because of their impaired osteogenesis, but the latent mechanism has not been well understood. Here, the relative signaling abnormality of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) isolated from OI type I mice (Col1a1+/-365 mice) was explored. Autologous ADSCs transfected by retrovirus carrying human COL1A1 gene was first utilized in OI therapy. The results showed that decreased activity of Yes-associated protein (YAP) due to hyperactive upstream Hippo kinases greatly contributed to the weakened bone-forming capacity of defective ADSCs. Recovered collagen synthesis of autologous ADSCs by COL1A1 gene modification normalized Hippo/YAP signaling and effectively rescued YAP-mediated osteogenesis. And the COL1A1 gene engineered autologous ADSCs efficaciously improved the microstructure, enhanced the mechanical properties and promoted bone formation of Col1a1+/-365 mice after femoral bone marrow cavity delivery and might serve as an alternative source of stem cells in OI treatment. © 2021 American Society for Bone and Mineral Research (ASBMR).

Abstract
The therapeutic effectiveness of cell transplantation in treatment of diseases and injuries is often limited by low cell retention, survivability, and engraftment. Extracellular matrix (ECM)-derived scaffolds are capable of controlling cell responses, thereby offering potential solutions to current challenges associated with cell therapy. However, it remains a technical challenge to produce ECM scaffolds with highly interconnected porous structure specifically required for cell transplantation. Here, we developed inverse opal porous extracellular matrix (ioECM) scaffolds through subcutaneous implantation of sacrificial templates assembled from polymer microspheres, followed by removal of the microsphere template and cellular content. Such highly interconnected porous ioECM scaffolds supported the anchorage, survival, viability, anti-apoptotic and paracrine activities of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), which further promoted endothelial cell migration and tube formation and viability. Upon transplantation into nude mouse critical limb ischemic model, ioECM promoted the engraftment of laden BMSCs, facilitated interconnected vascular network formation with accelerated recovery of blood perfusion and inhibited muscle atrophy and fibrosis. Our study demonstrates a unique strategy to engineer highly porous yet well-interconnected ECM scaffolds specifically for cell transplantation with marked improvement of survivability and vascularization, which offers an essential step toward the success of cell therapy and regenerative medicine. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Cell-based therapy has a good developing foreground applied in a variety of tissue regeneration. Extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds is an optimal choice for cell delivery duo to its superior biocompatibility and favorable immune responses. However, the current ECM scaffolds lacking of the controllable pore structure restrict the cell delivery efficiency and therapeutic outcome. Here, we fabricated highly interconnected inverse opal extracellular matrix (ioECM) scaffolds, which can enhance the effect of stem cell therapy in limb ischemic model by improving the survival, viability, and paracrine activities of stem cells. Our study provides reference value for the design and fabrication of ECM based biomaterials for cell transplantation.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) cellular models of cancer tissue are necessary tools to analyze new anticancer drugs under in vitro conditions. Diagnostics and treatment of ovarian cancer are major challenges for current medicine. In our report we propose a new three-dimensional (3D) cellular model of ovarian cancer which can mimic a fragment of heterogeneous cancer tissue. We used Lab-on-a-chip technology to create a microfluidic system that allows cellular multilayer to be cultured. Cellular multilayer mimics the structure of two important elements of cancer tissue: flesh and stroma. For this reason, it has an advantage over other in vitro cellular models. We used human ovarian fibroblasts (HOF) and human ovarian cancer cells in our research (A2780). In the first stage of the study, we proved that the presence of non-malignant fibroblasts in co-culture with ovarian cancer cells stimulates the proliferation of cancer cells, which is important in the progression of ovarian cancer. In the next stage of the research, we tested the usefulness of the newly-developed cellular model in the analysis of anticancer drugs and therapies under in vitro conditions. We tested two photosensitizers (PS): free and nanoencapsulated meso-tetrafenylporphyrin, and we evaluated the potential of these drugs in anticancer photodynamic therapy (PDT) of ovarian cancer. We also studied the mechanism of PDT based on the analysis of the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cell cultures. Our research confirmed that the use of new-generation PS can significantly increase the efficacy of PDT in the treatment of ovarian cancer. We also proved that the newly-developed 3D cellular model is suitable for rapid screening of anticancer drugs and has the potential to be used clinically in the future, e.g. in the selection of treatment methods for anticancer personalized medicine.

Abstract
Recent findings suggest that tumor microenvironment (TME) plays an important regulatory role in the occurrence, proliferation, and metastasis of tumors. Different from normal tissue, the condition around tumor significantly altered, including immune infiltration, compact extracellular matrix, new vasculatures, abundant enzyme, acidic pH value, and hypoxia. Increasingly, researchers focused on targeting TME to prevent tumor development and metastasis. With the development of nanotechnology and the deep research on the tumor environment, stimulation-responsive intelligent nanostructures designed based on TME have attracted much attention in the anti-tumor drug delivery system. TME-targeted nano therapeutics can regulate the distribution of drugs in the body, specifically increase the concentration of drugs in the tumor site, so as to enhance the efficacy and reduce adverse reactions, can utilize particular conditions of TME to improve the effect of tumor therapy. This paper summarizes the major components and characteristics of TME, discusses the principles and strategies of relevant nano-architectures targeting TME for the treatment and diagnosis systematically.

Abstract
Functional small-diameter tissue-engineered blood vessels (TEBVs) have been developed in silico using biodegradable polymeric scaffolds under pulsatile perfusion. Accurate simulation of physiological mechanical stimulations in vitro is a crucial factor in vascular engineering. However, little is known about the patterns of mechanical stimulation on silicone tubes. This study aimed to determine the optimal mechanical conditions required for inducing circumferential deformations in silicone tubes during in vitro vascular development under pulsatile perfusion. For this purpose, we established a data acquisition (DAQ) system with a laser micrometer and pressure transducers to evaluate changes in the diameter of silicone tubes in response to pulsatile flow and validated the results on cultured TEBVs. The established DAQ system showed satisfactory reproducibility for measuring diameter variation in the in silico model. Furthermore, the hardness and thickness of the silicone tubes affected the mechanical conditioning in the three-dimensional culture system under different working pressures, frequencies, and circumferential deformations. We demonstrated a simple and reliable approach to quantify the circumferential strain and deformations to ensure optimal mechanical stimulation of the cultured TEBVs under pulsatile perfusion. Based on the results, we were able to dynamically culture dense cellularized small-diameter TEBVs. This study highlights the importance of mechanical stimulation in vascular tissue engineering. Impact statement This study demonstrated a direct and noncontact data acquisition system for quantifying the strain on the supporting silicone medium during three-dimensional tissue-engineered blood vessel culture, which can help optimize the mechanical parameters for vascular tissue engineering.

Abstract
The development of therapeutic regenerative medicine and accurate drug discovery cell-based products requires effective, with respect to obtaining sufficient numbers of viable, proliferative, and functional cell populations, cell expansion ex vivo. Unfortunately, traditional cell culture systems fail to recapitulate the multifaceted tissue milieu in vitro, resulting in cell phenotypic drift, loss of functionality, senescence, and apoptosis. Substrate-, environment-, and media-induced approaches are under intense investigation as a means to maintain cell phenotype and function while in culture. In this context, herein, the potential of macromolecular crowding, a biophysical phenomenon with considerable biological consequences, is discussed.

Stem cell niche organization in the Drosophila ovary requires the ECM component Perlecan. Curr Biol 2021; 31:1744-1753.e5. [PMID: 33621481 PMCID: PMC8405445 DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2021.01.071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2020] [Revised: 11/10/2020] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Stem cells reside in specialized microenvironments or niches that balance stem cell proliferation and differentiation.1,2 The extracellular matrix (ECM) is an essential component of most niches, because it controls niche homeostasis, provides physical support, and conveys extracellular signals.3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 Basement membranes (BMs) are thin ECM sheets that are constituted mainly by Laminins, Perlecan, Collagen IV, and Entactin/Nidogen and surround epithelia and other tissues.12 Perlecans are secreted proteoglycans that interact with ECM proteins, ligands, receptors, and growth factors such as FGF, PDGF, VEGF, Hedgehog, and Wingless.13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Thus, Perlecans have structural and signaling functions through the binding, storage, or sequestering of specific ligands. We have used the Drosophila ovary to assess the importance of Perlecan in the functioning of a stem cell niche. Ovarioles in the adult ovary are enveloped by an ECM sheath and possess a tapered structure at their anterior apex termed the germarium. The anterior tip of the germarium hosts the germline niche, where two to four germline stem cells (GSCs) reside together with a few somatic cells: terminal filament cells (TFCs), cap cells (CpCs), and escort cells (ECs).19 We report that niche architecture in the developing gonad requires trol, that niche cells secrete an isoform-specific Perlecan-rich interstitial matrix, and that DE-cadherin-dependent stem cell-niche adhesion necessitates trol. Hence, we provide evidence to support a structural role for Perlecan in germline niche establishment during larval stages and in the maintenance of a normal pool of stem cells in the adult niche. The Drosophila ovarian niche contains a Perlecan-rich interstitial matrix Niche cells express and secrete specific Perlecan isoforms Absence of trol results in aberrant niches containing fewer niche and stem cells trol regulates DE-cadherin levels in larval and adult niche cells

Abstract
Diverse pathologies (inflammation, tissues injuries, cancer, etc.) and physiological conditions (obesity, physical activity, etc.) induce the expression/secretion of the matricellular protein, secrete protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC). SPARC contributes to the creation of an environment that is suitable for tissue regeneration through a variety of roles, including metabolic homeostasis, inflammation reduction, extracellular matrix remodeling and collagen maturation. Such a homeostatic environment optimizes tissue regeneration and improves tissues’ repair ability. These properties that SPARC has within the regeneration contexts could have a variety of applications, such as in obesity, cancer, sarcopenia, diabetes and bioengineering.

Abstract
Colorectal anastomotic leakage is one of the most feared and fatal complications of colorectal surgery. To date, no external coating material that can prevent anastomotic leakage has been developed. As myoblasts possess anti-inflammatory capacity and improve wound healing, we developed a multilayered human skeletal muscle myoblast (HSMM) sheet by periodic exposure to supraphysiological hydrostatic pressure during repeated cell seeding. We assessed whether the application of an HSMM sheet can promote the healing process after colonic anastomosis. Partial colectomy and insufficient suturing were employed to create a high-risk colo-colonic anastomosis model in 60 nude rats. Rats were divided into a control group (n = 30) and an HSMM sheet group (n = 30). Macroscopic findings, anastomotic bursting pressure, and histology at the colonic anastomotic site were evaluated on postoperative day (POD) 3, 5, 7, 14, and 28. The application of an HSMM sheet significantly suppressed abscess formation at the anastomotic site compared to the control group on POD3 and 5. The anastomotic bursting pressure in the HSMM sheet group was higher than that in the control group on POD3 and 5. Inflammatory cell infiltration in the HSMM sheet group was significantly suppressed compared to that in the control group throughout the time course. Collagen deposition in the HSMM sheet group on POD3 was significantly abundant compared to that in the control group. Regeneration of the mucosa at the colonic anastomotic site was promoted in the HSMM sheet group compared to that in the control group on POD14 and 28. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that surviving cells in the HSMM sheet gradually decreased with postoperative time and none were detected on POD14. These results suggest that the application of a multilayered HSMM sheet may prevent postoperative colonic anastomotic leakage.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular matrix (mECM) has received increased attention in the fields of tissue engineering and scaffold-assisted regeneration. mECM exhibits many unique characteristics, such as robust bioactivity, biocompatibility, ease of use, and the potential for autologous tissue engineering. As the use of mECM has increased in musculoskeletal tissue engineering, it should be noted that mECM generated from current methods has inherited insufficiencies, such as low mechanical properties and lack of internal architecture. In this review, we first summarize the development and use of mECM as a scaffold for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration and highlight our current progress on moving this technology toward clinical application. Then we review recent methods to improve the properties of mECM that will overcome current weaknesses. Lastly, we propose future studies that will pave the road for mECM application in regenerating tissues in humans.

Abstract
The replacement of small-diameter arteries remains an unmet clinical need. Here we investigated the cellular remodeling of fibrotic conduits as vascular grafts. The formation of fibrotic conduit around subcutaneously implanted mandrels involved not only fibroblasts but also the trans-differentiation of inflammatory cells such as macrophages into fibroblastic cells, as shown by genetic lineage tracing. When fibrotic conduits were implanted as vascular grafts, the patency was low, and many fibrotic cells were found in neointima. Decellularization and anti-thrombogenic coating of fibrotic conduits produced highly patent autografts that remodeled into neoarteries, offering an effective approach to obtain autografts for clinical therapy. While autografts recruited mostly anti-inflammatory macrophages for constructive remodeling, allogenic DFCs had more T cells and pro-inflammatory macrophages and lower patency. Endothelial progenitors and endothelial migration were observed during endothelialization. Cell infiltration into DFCs was more efficient than decellularized arteries, and infiltrated cells remodeled the matrix and differentiated into smooth muscle cells (SMCs). This work provides insight into the remodeling of fibrotic conduits, autologous DFCs and allogenic DFCs, and will have broad impact on using fibrotic matrix for regenerative engineering.

Abstract
Salivary proteins are essential for maintaining health in the oral cavity and proximal digestive tract, and they serve as potential diagnostic markers for monitoring human health and disease. However, their precise organ origins remain unclear. Through transcriptomic analysis of major adult and fetal salivary glands and integration with the saliva proteome, the blood plasma proteome, and transcriptomes of 28+ organs, we link human saliva proteins to their source, identify salivary-gland-specific genes, and uncover fetal- and adult-specific gene repertoires. Our results also provide insights into the degree of gene retention during gland maturation and suggest that functional diversity among adult gland types is driven by specific dosage combinations of hundreds of transcriptional regulators rather than by a few gland-specific factors. Finally, we demonstrate the heterogeneity of the human acinar cell lineage. Our results pave the way for future investigations into glandular biology and pathology, as well as saliva's use as a diagnostic fluid.

Abstract
Tissue engineering approaches appear nowadays highly promising for the regeneration of injured/diseased tissues. Biomimetic scaffolds are continuously been developed to act as structural support for cell growth and proliferation as well as for the delivery of cells able to be differentiated, and also of bioactive molecules like growth factors and even signaling cues. The current research concerns materials employed to develop biological scaffolds with improved features as well as complex preparation techniques. In this work, hybrid systems based on natural polymers are discussed and the efforts focused to provide new polymers able to mimic proteins and DNA are extensively explained. Progress on the scaffold fabrication technique is mentioned, those processes based on solution and melt electrospinning or even on their combination being mainly discussed. Selection of the appropriate hybrid technology becomes vital to get optimal architecture to reasonably accomplish the final applications. Representative examples of the recent possibilities on tissue regeneration are finally given.

Abstract
Biomaterials-based biofabrication methods have gained much attention in recent years. Among them, 3D cell printing is a pioneering technology to facilitate the recapitulation of unique features of complex human tissues and organs with high process flexibility and versatility. Bioinks, combinations of printable hydrogel and cells, can be utilized to create 3D cell-printed constructs. The bioactive cues of bioinks directly trigger cells to induce tissue morphogenesis. Among the various printable hydrogels, the tissue- and organ-specific decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) can exert synergistic effects in supporting various cells at any component by facilitating specific physiological properties. In this review, we aim to discuss a new paradigm of dECM-based bioinks able to recapitulate the inherent microenvironmental niche in 3D cell-printed constructs. This review can serve as a toolbox for biomedical engineers who want to understand the beneficial characteristics of the dECM-based bioinks and a basic set of fundamental criteria for printing functional human tissues and organs.

Abstract
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a stable and biocompatible material that has been broadly used in biomedical applications. Due to its piezoelectric property, the electrospun nanofiber of PVDF has been used to culture electroactive cells, such as osteocytes and cardiomyocytes. Here, taking advantage of the piezoelectric property of PVDF, we have fabricated a PVDF nanofiber scaffolds using an electrospinning technique for differentiating human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) into neural precursors (NPs). Surface coating with a peptide derived from vitronectin enables hESCs to firmly adhere onto the nanofiber scaffolds and differentiate into NPs under dual-SMAD inhibition. Our nanofiber scaffolds supported the differentiation of hESCs into SOX1-positive NPs more significantly than Matrigel. The NPs generated on the nanofiber scaffolds could give rise to neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocyte precursors. Furthermore, comparative transcriptome analysis revealed the variable expressions of 27 genes in the nanofiber scaffold groups, several of which are highly related to the biological processes required for neural differentiation. These results suggest that a PVDF nanofiber scaffold coated with a vitronectin peptide can serve as a highly efficient and defined culture platform for the neural differentiation of hESCs.

Abstract
Purpose By providing a stem cell microenvironment with particular bioactive constituents in vivo, synthetic biomaterials have been progressively successful in stem cell-based tissue regeneration by enhancing the engraftment and survival of transplanted cells. Designs with bioactive motifs to influence cell behavior and with D-form amino acids to modulate scaffold stability may be critical for the development and optimization of self-assembling biomimetic hydrogel scaffolds for stem cell therapy. Materials and Methods In this study, we linked naphthalene (Nap) covalently to a short D-form peptide (Nap-DFDFG) and the C domain of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1C) as a functional hydrogel-based scaffolds, and we hypothesized that this hydrogel could enhance the therapeutic efficiency of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hP-MSCs) in a murine acute kidney injury (AKI) model. Results The self-assembling peptide was constrained into a classical β-sheet structure and showed hydrogel properties. Our results revealed that this hydrogel exhibited increased affinity for IGF-1 receptor. Furthermore, cotransplantation of the β-IGF-1C hydrogel and hP-MSCs contributed to endogenous regeneration post-injury and boosted angiogenesis in a murine AKI model, leading to recovery of renal function. Conclusion This hydrogel could provide a favorable niche for hP-MSCs and thereby rescue renal function in an AKI model by promoting cell survival and angiogenesis. In conclusion, by covalently linking the desired functional groups to D-form peptides to create functional hydrogels, self-assembling β-sheet peptide hydrogels may serve as a promising platform for tissue-engineering and stem cell therapy. ![]()

Abstract
The skin is the largest organ in the body, fulfilling a variety of functions and acting as a barrier for internal organs against external insults. As for extensive or irreversible damage, skin autografts are often considered the gold standard, however inherent limitations highlight the need for alternative strategies. Engineering of human-compatible tissues is an interdisciplinary and active field of research, leading to the production of scaffolds and skin substitutes to guide repair and regeneration. However, faithful reproduction of extracellular matrix (ECM) architecture and bioactive content capable of cell-instructive and cell-responsive properties remains challenging. ECM is a heterogeneous, connective network composed of collagens, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and small molecules. It is highly coordinated to provide the physical scaffolding, mechanical stability, and biochemical cues necessary for tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis. Decellularization processes have made it possible to isolate the ECM in its native and three-dimensional form from a cell-populated tissue for use in skin regeneration. In this review, we present recent knowledge about these decellularized biomaterials with the potential to be used as dermal or skin substitutes in clinical applications. We detail tissue sources and clinical indications with success rates and report the most effective decellularization methods compatible with clinical use.

Abstract
In the human body, cells in a tissue are exposed to signals derived from their specific extracellular matrix (ECM), such as architectural structure, mechanical properties, and chemical composition (proteins, growth factors). Research on biomaterials in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine aims to recreate such stimuli using engineered materials to induce a specific response of cells at the interface. Although traditional biomaterials design has been mostly limited to varying individual signals, increasing interest has arisen on combining several features in recent years to improve the mimicry of extracellular matrix properties. Tremendous progress in combinatorial surface modification exploiting, for example, topographical features or variations in mechanics combined with biochemical cues has enabled the identification of their key regulatory characteristics on various cell fate decisions. Gradients especially facilitated such research by enabling the investigation of combined continuous changes of different signals. Despite unravelling important synergies for cellular responses, challenges arise in terms of fabrication and characterization of multifunctional engineered materials. This review summarizes recent work on combinatorial surface modifications that aim to control biological responses. Modification and characterization methods for enhanced control over multifunctional material properties are highlighted and discussed. Thereby, this review deepens the understanding and knowledge of biomimetic combinatorial material modification, their challenges but especially their potential.

Abstract
Synthetic 3D extracellular matrices (ECMs) find application in cell studies, regenerative medicine, and drug discovery. While cells cultured in a monolayer may exhibit unnatural behavior and develop very different phenotypes and genotypes than in vivo, great efforts in materials chemistry have been devoted to reproducing in vitro behavior in in vivo cell microenvironments. This requires fine-tuning the biochemical and structural actors in synthetic ECMs. This review will present the fundamentals of the ECM, cover the chemical and structural features of the scaffolds used to generate ECM mimics, discuss the nature of the signaling biomolecules required and exploited to generate bioresponsive cell microenvironments able to induce a specific cell fate, and highlight the synthetic strategies involved in creating functional 3D ECM mimics.

Functional role of glycosaminoglycans in decellularized lung extracellular matrix. Acta Biomater 2020; 102:231-246. [PMID: 31751810 PMCID: PMC8713186 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2019.11.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 59] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2018] [Revised: 11/09/2019] [Accepted: 11/12/2019] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
Despite progress in use of decellularized lung scaffolds in ex vivo lung bioengineering schemes, including use of gels and other materials derived from the scaffolds, the detailed composition and functional role of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteoglycans (PGs) and their glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains remaining in decellularized lungs, is poorly understood. Using a commonly utilized detergent-based decellularization approach in human autopsy lungs resulted in disproportionate losses of GAGs with depletion of chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS) > heparan sulfate (HS) > hyaluronic acid (HA). Specific changes in disaccharide composition of remaining GAGs were observed with disproportionate loss of NS and NS2S for HS groups and of 4S for CS/DS groups. No significant influence of smoking history, sex, time to autopsy, or age was observed in native vs. decellularized lungs. Notably, surface plasmon resonance demonstrated that GAGs remaining in decellularized lungs were unable to bind key matrix-associated growth factors FGF2, HGF, and TGFβ1. Growth of lung epithelial, pulmonary vascular, and stromal cells cultured on the surface of or embedded within gels derived from decellularized human lungs was differentially and combinatorially enhanced by replenishing specific GAGs and FGF2, HGF, and TGFβ1. In summary, lung decellularization results in loss and/or dysfunction of specific GAGs or side chains significantly affecting matrix-associated growth factor binding and lung cell metabolism. GAG and matrix-associated growth factor replenishment thus needs to be incorporated into schemes for investigations utilizing gels and other materials produced from decellularized human lungs. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Despite progress in use of decellularized lung scaffolds in ex vivo lung bioengineering schemes, including use of gels and other materials derived from the scaffolds, the detailed composition and functional role of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteoglycans (PGs) and their glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains remaining in decellularized lungs, is poorly understood. In the current studies, we demonstrate that glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are significantly depleted during decellularization and those that remain are dysfunctional and unable to bind matrix-associated growth factors critical for cell growth and differentiation. Systematically repleting GAGs and matrix-associated growth factors to gels derived from decellularized human lung significantly and differentially affects cell growth. These studies highlight the importance of considering GAGs in decellularized lungs and their derivatives.

Abstract
Stem cell transplantation is an advanced medical technology, which brings hope for the
treatment of some difficult diseases in the clinic. Attributed to its self-renewal and differential
ability, stem cell research has been pushed to the forefront of regenerative medicine and has become
a hot topic in tissue engineering. The surrounding extracellular matrix has physical functions
and important biological significance in regulating the life activities of cells, which may play crucial
roles for in situ inducing specific differentiation of stem cells. In this review, we discuss the
stem cells and their engineering application, and highlight the control of the fate of stem cells, we
offer our perspectives on the various challenges and opportunities facing the use of the components
of extracellular matrix for stem cell attachment, growth, proliferation, migration and differentiation.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid (HA) exists naturally as an important component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the human body. In recent decades, HA has been widely used in bone regeneration, and is currently a popular topic, particularly in the craniofacial and dental fields. From maxilla augmentation to craniofacial bone trauma, there is now a large demand for bone regenerative therapy. Serving as a cell-seeding scaffold or a carrier for bioactive components, hyaluronic acid-incorporated scaffolds and carriers in bone regeneration can be fabricated into either rigid or colloidal forms. Since the type of material used is a critical factor in the biological properties of a scaffold, HA derivatives or HA-incorporated composite scaffolds have shown excellent potential for improving osteogenesis and mineralization. Furthermore, in order to better enhance osteogenesis, local delivery carriers based on hyaluronic acid derivatives, rather than specifically serving as scaffolds, can be established by loading different osteoinductive or osteogenetic components and acquiring different release patterns. Such osteoinductive carriers immobilized on implant surfaces are also effective in improving osseointegration. Thus, as such a competent biomaterial, hyaluronic acid should be considered a promising tool in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type I caused by the null allele of COL1A1 gene is in the majority in clinical OI cases. Currently, heterozygous Mov-13 mice generated by virus insertion in the first intron of col1a1 is the exclusive model to modulate OI type I, in spite of the gradually recovered bone mineral and mechanical properties. A newly designed heterozygous col1a1±365 OI mouse was produced in the present study by partial exons knockout (exon 2-exon 5, 365 nt of mRNA) using CRISPR/Cas9 system. The deletion resulted in generally large decrease in type I collagen synthesis due to frameshift mutation and premature chain termination, closely mimicking the pathogenic mechanism in affected individuals. And the strain possessed significantly sparse mineral scaffolds, bone loss, lowered mechanical strength and broken bone metabolism by 8 and 20 weeks compared to their littermates, suggesting a sustained skeletal weakness. Notably, the remarkable down-regulation of Yes-associated protein (YAP), one of the key coactivator in Hippo signaling pathway, was first found both in the femur and adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) under osteogenic differentiation of col1a1±365 mice, which might be responsible for the reduced osteogenic potential and brittle bones. Still, further research was needed in order to illuminate the underlying mechanism.
