Abstract
Polylactide (PLA) is the most widely utilized biopolymer in medicine. However, chronic inflammation and excessive fibrosis resulting from its degradation remain significant obstacles to extended clinical use. Immune cell activation has been correlated to the acidity of breakdown products, yet methods to neutralize the pH have not significantly reduced adverse responses. Using a bioenergetic model, delayed cellular changes were observed that are not apparent in the short-term. Amorphous and semi-crystalline PLA degradation products, including monomeric l-lactic acid, mechanistically remodel metabolism in cells leading to a reactive immune microenvironment characterized by elevated proinflammatory cytokines. Selective inhibition of metabolic reprogramming and altered bioenergetics both reduce these undesirable high cytokine levels and stimulate anti-inflammatory signals. The results present a new biocompatibility paradigm by identifying metabolism as a target for immunomodulation to increase tolerance to biomaterials, ensuring safe clinical application of PLA-based implants for soft- and hard-tissue regeneration, and advancing nanomedicine and drug delivery.

Abstract
Primary total joint arthroplasties (TJAs) are widely and successfully applied reconstructive procedures to treat end-stage arthritis. Nearly 50 % of TJAs are now performed in young patients, posing a new challenge: performing TJAs which last a lifetime. The urgency is justified because subsequent TJAs are costlier and fraught with higher complication rates, not to mention the toll taken on patients and their families. Polyethylene particles, generated by wear at joint articulations, drive aseptic loosening by inciting insidious inflammation associated with surrounding bone loss. Down modulating polyethylene particle-induced inflammation enhances integration of implants to bone (osseointegration), preventing loosening. A promising immunomodulation strategy could leverage immune cell metabolism, however, the role of immunometabolism in polyethylene particle-induced inflammation is unknown. Our findings reveal that immune cells exposed to sterile or contaminated polyethylene particles show fundamentally altered metabolism, resulting in glycolytic reprogramming. Inhibiting glycolysis controlled inflammation, inducing a pro-regenerative phenotype that could enhance osseointegration.

Abstract
Repeating l- and d-chiral configurations determine polylactide (PLA) stereochemistry, which affects its thermal and physicochemical properties, including degradation profiles. Clinically, degradation of implanted PLA biomaterials promotes prolonged inflammation and excessive fibrosis, but the role of PLA stereochemistry is unclear. Additionally, although PLA of varied stereochemistries causes differential immune responses in vivo, this observation has yet to be effectively modeled in vitro. A bioenergetic model was applied to study immune cellular responses to PLA containing >99% l-lactide (PLLA), >99% d-lactide (PDLA), and a 50/50 melt-blend of PLLA and PDLA (stereocomplex PLA). Stereocomplex PLA breakdown products increased IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 protein levels but not MCP-1. Expression of these proinflammatory cytokines is mechanistically driven by increases in glycolysis in primary macrophages. In contrast, PLLA and PDLA degradation products selectively increase MCP-1 protein expression. Although both oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis are increased with PDLA, only oxidative phosphorylation is increased with PLLA. For each biomaterial, glycolytic inhibition reduces proinflammatory cytokines and markedly increases anti-inflammatory (IL-10) protein levels; differential metabolic changes in fibroblasts were observed. These findings provide mechanistic explanations for the diverse immune responses to PLA of different stereochemistries and underscore the pivotal role of immunometabolism in the biocompatibility of biomaterials applied in medicine.

Abstract
Corneal fibroblasts are embedded within an extracellular matrix composed largely of collagen type 1, proteoglycans, and other proteins in the corneal stroma, and their morphology and function are subject to continuous regulation by collagen. During wound healing and in various pathological conditions, corneal fibroblasts differentiate into myofibroblasts characterized by the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA). Endo180, also known as urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) receptor-associated protein (uPARAP), is a collagen receptor. Here we investigated whether targeting of Endo180 and the uPA receptor (uPAR) by uPA might play a role in the regulation of α-SMA expression by culturing corneal fibroblasts derived from uPA-deficient (uPA-/-) or wild-type (uPA+/+) mice in a collagen gel or on plastic. The expression of α-SMA was upregulated, the amounts of full-length Endo180 and uPAR were increased, and the levels of both transforming growth factor-b (TGF-β) expression and Smad3 phosphorylation were higher in uPA-/- corneal fibroblasts compared with uPA+/+ cells under the collagen gel culture condition. Antibodies to Endo180 inhibited these effects of uPA deficiency on a-SMA and TGF-b expression, whereas a TGF-b signaling inhibitor blocked the effects on Smad3 phosphorylation and a-SMA expression. Our results suggest that uPA deficiency might promote the interaction between collagen and Endo180 and thereby increase a-SMA expression in a manner dependent on TGF-β signaling. Expression of α-SMA is thus negatively regulated by uPA through targeting of Endo180 and uPAR.

Abstract
Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) play an essential role in the induction and regulation of immune responses, including the activation of effector T lymphocytes for the eradication of cancers. However, the tumor microenvironment (TME) often leads to DCs dysfunction due to their immature state. MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) has emerged as a typical multifunctional gene regulator associated with immune system development and immune cell activation and differentiation.Methods: In this study, a three-dimensional TME model that closely mimics the microenvironment of breast cancer was prepared. MiR-155 overexpression and control vectors were constructed using lentivirus. The relative expression of miR-155 was determined by qRT-PCR. Cell viability, antigen uptake and cell surface marker expression were analyzed by live-dead staining and flow cytometry. The migration ability of bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs) was qualified by transwell assay. A mixed lymphocyte culture assay was used to assess T cell-specific proliferation. Cytokine levels were determined by ELISA.Results: We found that the expression of miR-155 in DCs was inhibited by the TME. Furthermore, upregulation of miR-155 enhanced the migration ability, uptake of antigen and elevated the expression of the mature DCs markers CD80 and MHCII. More importantly, overexpression of miR-155 in DCs significantly induced T cell proliferation and IFN-γ and IL-2 secretion.Conclusion: MiR-155 is a potential molecular regulator that may improve the efficacy of DCs-based tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
Background Dendritic cell (DC) vaccine efficacy is directly related to the efficiency of DC migration to the lymph node after delivery to the patient. We discovered that a naturally occurring metabolite, sarcosine, increases DC migration in human and murine cells resulting in significantly improved anti-tumor efficacy. We hypothesized that sarcosine induced cell migration was due to chemokine signaling. Methods DCs were harvested from the bone marrow of wild type C57BL/6 mice and electroporated with tumor messenger RNA (mRNA). Human DCs were isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). DCs were treated with 20 mM of sarcosine. Antigen specific T cells were isolated from transgenic mice and injected intravenously into tumor bearing mice. DC vaccines were delivered via intradermal injection. In vivo migration was evaluated by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence microscopy. Gene expression in RNA was investigated in DCs via RT-PCR and Nanostring. Results Sarcosine significantly increased human and murine DC migration in vitro. In vivo sarcosine-treated DCs had significantly increased migration to both the lymph nodes and spleens after intradermal delivery in mice. Sarcosine-treated DC vaccines resulted in significantly improved tumor control in a B16F10-OVA tumor flank model and improved survival in an intracranial GL261-gp100 glioma model. Gene expression demonstrated an upregulation of CXCR2, CXCL3 and CXCL1 in sarcosine- treated DCs. Further metabolic analysis demonstrated the up-regulation of cyclooxygenase-1 and Pik3cg. Sarcosine induced migration was abrogated by adding the CXCR2 neutralizing antibody in both human and murine DCs. CXCR2 neutralizing antibody also removed the survival benefit of sarcosine-treated DCs in the tumor models. Conclusion Sarcosine increases the migration of murine and human DCs via the CXC chemokine pathway. This platform can be utilized to improve existing DC vaccine strategies.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) are immune cells that surveil the organism for infections or malignancies and activate specific T lymphocytes initiating specific immune responses. Contrariwise, DCs have been show to participate in the development of diseases, among them some types of cancer by inducing angiogenesis or immunosuppression. The ultimate fate of DC functions regarding their role in disease or health is prompted by signals from the microenvironment. We have previously shown that the interaction of DCs with various extracellular matrix components modifies the immune properties and angiogenic potential of these cells. The objective of the current studies was to investigate the angiogenic and immune profile of murine myeloid DCs upon interaction with laminin environments, with a particular emphasis on ovarian cancer. Our results show that murine ovarian tumors produce several types of laminins, as determined by PCR analysis, and also that tumor-associated DCs, both from ascites or solid tumors express adhesion molecules capable of interacting with these molecules as determined by flow cytometry and PCR analysis. Further, we established that DCs cultured on laminin upregulate both AKT and MEK signaling pathways, and that long-term culture on laminin surfaces decreases the immunological capacities of these cells when compared to the same cells cultured on synthetic substrates. In addition, we observed that tumor conditioned media was able to modify the metabolic status of these cells, and also reprogram the development of DCs from bone marrow precursors towards the generation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells. Overall, these studies demonstrate that the interaction between soluble factors and extracellular matrix components of the ovarian cancer microenvironment shape the biology of DCs and thus help them become co-conspirators of tumor growth.

Abstract
Collagen is the major component of the tumor microenvironment and participates in cancer fibrosis. Collagen biosynthesis can be regulated by cancer cells through mutated genes, transcription factors, signaling pathways and receptors; furthermore, collagen can influence tumor cell behavior through integrins, discoidin domain receptors, tyrosine kinase receptors, and some signaling pathways. Exosomes and microRNAs are closely associated with collagen in cancer. Hypoxia, which is common in collagen-rich conditions, intensifies cancer progression, and other substances in the extracellular matrix, such as fibronectin, hyaluronic acid, laminin, and matrix metalloproteinases, interact with collagen to influence cancer cell activity. Macrophages, lymphocytes, and fibroblasts play a role with collagen in cancer immunity and progression. Microscopic changes in collagen content within cancer cells and matrix cells and in other molecules ultimately contribute to the mutual feedback loop that influences prognosis, recurrence, and resistance in cancer. Nanoparticles, nanoplatforms, and nanoenzymes exhibit the expected gratifying properties. The pathophysiological functions of collagen in diverse cancers illustrate the dual roles of collagen and provide promising therapeutic options that can be readily translated from bench to bedside. The emerging understanding of the structural properties and functions of collagen in cancer will guide the development of new strategies for anticancer therapy.

J Tissue Eng Regen Med 2019; 13:1528-1543. [PMID: 31144475 DOI: 10.1002/term.2903] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2018] [Revised: 05/01/2019] [Accepted: 05/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Activated T cells are known to promote fibrosis, a major complication limiting the range of polymeric hydrogels as artificial corneal implants. As T cells are activated by dendritic cells (DC), minimally activating hydrogels would be optimal. In this study, we evaluated the ability of a series of engineered (manufactured/fabricated) and natural collagen matrices to either activate DC or conversely induce DC apoptosis in vitro. Bone marrow DC were cultured on a series of singly and doubly crosslinked hydrogels (made from recombinant human collagen III [RHCIII] or collagen mimetic peptide [CMP]) or on natural collagen-containing matrices, MatrigelTM and de-cellularised mouse corneal stroma. DC surface expression of major histocompatibility complex Class II and CD86 as well as apoptosis markers were examined. Natural matrices induced low levels of DC activation and maintained a "tolerogenic" phenotype. The same applied to singly crosslinked CMP-PEG gels. RHCIII gels singly crosslinked using either N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide with the coinitiator N-hydroxy succinimide (EDC-NHS) or N-cyclohexyl-N-(2-morpholinoethyl)carbodiimide metho-p-toulenesulfonate with NHS (CMC-NHS) induced varying levels of DC activation. In contrast, however, RHCIII hydrogels incorporating an additional polymeric network of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine did not activate DC but instead induced DC apoptosis, a phenomenon observed in natural matrices. This correlated with increased DC expression of leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor-1. Despite low immunogenic potential, viable tolerogenic DC migrated into and through both natural and manufactured RHCIII gels. These data show that the immunogenic potential of RHCIII gels varies with the nature and composition of the gel. Preclinical evaluation of hydrogel immunogenic/fibrogenic potential is recommended.

Silencing LAIR-1 in human THP-1 macrophage increases foam cell formation by modulating PPARγ and M2 polarization. Cytokine 2018; 111:194-205.

Abstract
Formation of macrophage-derived foam cells may mark the initial stages of atherosclerosis. We investigated the association between the expression of the leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (LAIR-1) in macrophages and foam cell formation. A foam cell model was established by incubating THP-1-derived macrophages and bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) with oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL). The role of LAIR-1 in foam cell formation was evaluated via Oil Red O staining and Dil-ox-LDL fluorescence intensities. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), cholesterol metabolism-related genes, and the role of LAIR-1 in activating classically activated (M1) and alternatively activated (M2) macrophages were evaluated by qPCR. Additionally, activation of protein-tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) and cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) were detected by western blotting. Results indicated that silencing LAIR-1 in macrophages modulated the SHP-1/CREB/PPARγ pathway, thereby promoting M2 macrophage polarization and increasing foam cell formation. Therefore, Inhibition of LAIR-1 in macrophages may promote foam cell formation and atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Two-dimensional cell cultures do not seem to be reliable models for anticancer drug discovery and validation. Numerous in vitro tumour models of different complexity have been evaluated with the aim to enhance anticancer drug development, but whether all these models could be considered as physiologically relevant is a question. Even type of the extracellular matrix may markedly influence experimental results and supposedly also clinical treatment outcome. By using three human oesophageal cell lines and three-dimensional cultures based on collagen type I, abundant component of stromal tissue, and Matrigel, a surrogate of basement membrane, we tested the impact of extracellular matrix on different aspects of cell behaviour. We applied live cell fluorescence confocal microscopy in combination with image analysis and supplemented it with immunohistochemical analysis of differentiation markers in fixed samples. We found that cell morphogenesis, differentiation, extracellular vesicle formation, protoporphyrin IX production from aminolevulinic acid and response to subsequent photodynamic intervention induced by red light may be affected by the type of extracellular matrix and these modifications occur in a cell-type dependent manner. Our results demonstrate that the choice of the correct extracellular matrix for in vitro tumour models is crucial for gathering clinically relevant information from in vitro experimental studies.

Abstract
Malignant cells are not the only components of a tumor mass since other cells (e.g., fibroblasts, infiltrating leukocytes and endothelial cells) are also part of it. In combination with the extracellular matrix, all these cells constitute the tumor microenvironment. In the last decade the role of the tumor microenvironment in cancer progression has gained increased attention and prompted efforts directed to abrogate its deleterious effects on anti-cancer therapies. The immune system can detect and attack tumor cells, and tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (particularly CD8 T cells) have been associated with improved survival or better response to therapies in colorectal, melanoma, breast, prostate and ovarian cancer patients among others. Contrariwise, tumor-associated myeloid cells (myeloid-derived suppressor cells [MDSCs], dendritic cells [DCs], macrophages) or lymphoid cells such as regulatory T cells can stimulate tumor growth via inhibition of immune responses against the tumor or by participating in tumor neoangiogenesis. Herewith we analyzed the chemokine profile of mouse breast tumors regarding their capacity to generate factors capable of attracting and sequestering DCs to their midst. Chemoattractants from tumors were investigated by molecular biology and immunological techniques and tumor infiltrating DCs were investigated for matched chemokine receptors. In addition, we investigated the inflammatory response of breast cancer cells, a major component of the tumor microenvironment, to double-stranded RNA stimulation. By using molecular biology techniques such as qualitative and quantitative PCR, PCR arrays, and immunological techniques (ELISA, cytokine immunoarrays) we examined the effects of dsRNA treatment on the cytokine secretion profiles of mouse and human breast cancer cells and non-transformed cells. We were able to determine that tumors generate chemokines that are able to interact with receptors present on the surface of tumor infiltrating DCs. We observed that PRR signaling is able to modify the production of chemokines by breast tumor cells and normal breast cells, thereby constituting a possible player in shaping the profile of the leukocyte population in the TME.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) tumor models have been intensively evaluated for their use in cancer research, and there is a strong rationale behind using 3D cell cultures in photodynamic therapy (PDT)-related experimentation. In this contribution, it is explained why 3D cell cultures containing extracellular matrix (ECM) are preferred for this purpose. Results of experimental studies utilizing ECM-containing 3D cellular models in PDT research are summarized. Finally, the design of in vitro 3D models that would provide clinically relevant information is discussed.

Abstract
Low fusion efficiency and nominal activity of fusion cells (FCs) restrict the clinical application of dendritic cell (DC)/tumor fusion cells. Collagen I (Col I) is an interstitial collagen with a closely-knit structure used to repair damaged cell membranes. This study evaluated whether Col I could improve the fusion efficiency of polyethylene glycol (PEG)-induction and enhance the immunogenicity of fusion vaccine. DC/B16 melanoma and controlled DC/H22 hepatoma cell fusions were induced by PEG with or without Col I. Col I/PEG treatment increased the levels of DC surface molecules and the secretion of lactate, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in fusion cells. Col I/PEG-treated FCs enhanced T-cell proliferation and cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity. The Col I-prepared fusion vaccine obviously suppressed tumor growth and prolonged mice survival time. Thus Col I treatment could significantly improve the efficiency of PEG-induced DC/tumor fusion and enhance the anticancer activity of the fusion vaccine. This novel fusion strategy might promote the clinical application of DC/tumor fusion immunotherapy.

Abstract
We have previously shown that human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) acquired different characteristics in dense or sparse cell cultures. Sparsity promoted the development of IL-12 producing migratory DCs, whereas dense cultures increased IL-10 production. Here we analysed whether the density-dependent endogenous breaks could modulate DC-based vaccines. Using murine bone marrow-derived DC models we show that sparse cultures were essential to achieve several key functions required for immunogenic DC vaccines, including mobility to draining lymph nodes, recruitment and massive proliferation of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells, in addition to their TH1 polarization. Transcription analyses confirmed higher commitment in sparse cultures towards T cell activation, whereas DCs obtained from dense cultures up-regulated immunosuppressive pathway components and genes suggesting higher differentiation plasticity towards osteoclasts. Interestingly, we detected a striking up-regulation of fatty acid and cholesterol biosynthesis pathways in sparse cultures, suggesting an important link between DC immunogenicity and lipid homeostasis regulation.

Abstract
The importance of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in contributing to structural, mechanical, functional and tissue-specific features in the body is well appreciated. While the ECM was previously considered to be a passive bystander, it is now evident that it plays active, dynamic and flexible roles in shaping cell survival, differentiation, migration and death to varying extents depending on the specific site in the body. Dendritic cells (DCs) are recognized as potent antigen presenting cells present in many tissues and in blood, continuously scrutinizing the microenvironment for antigens and mounting local and systemic host responses against harmful agents. DCs also play pivotal roles in maintaining homeostasis to harmless self-antigens, critical for preventing autoimmunity. What is less understood are the complex interactions between DCs and the ECM in maintaining this balance between steady-state tissue residence and DC activation during inflammation. DCs are finely tuned to inflammation-induced variations in fragment length, accessible epitopes and post-translational modifications of individual ECM components and correspondingly interpret these changes appropriately by adjusting their profiles of cognate binding receptors and downstream immune activation. The successful design and composition of novel ECM-based mimetics in regenerative medicine and other applications rely on our improved understanding of DC-ECM interplay in homeostasis and the challenges involved in maintaining it.
