Abstract
Macrophages play an essential role in immunotherapy and tissue regeneration owing to their remarkable plasticity and diverse functions. Recent bioengineering developments have focused on using external physical stimuli such as electric and magnetic fields, temperature, and compressive stress, among others, on micro/nanostructures to induce macrophage polarization, thereby increasing their therapeutic potential. However, it is difficult to find a concise review of the interaction between physical stimuli, advanced micro/nanostructures, and macrophage polarization. This review examines the present research on physical stimuli-induced macrophage polarization on micro/nanoplatforms, emphasizing the synergistic role of fabricated structure and stimulation for advanced immunotherapy and tissue regeneration. A concise overview of the research advancements investigating the impact of physical stimuli, including electric fields, magnetic fields, compressive forces, fluid shear stress, photothermal stimuli, and multiple stimulations on the polarization of macrophages within complex engineered structures, is provided. The prospective implications of these strategies in regenerative medicine and immunotherapeutic approaches are highlighted. This review will aid in creating stimuli-responsive platforms for immunomodulation and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The fibrous extracellular matrix (ECM) is vital for tissue regeneration and impacts implanted device treatments. Previous research on fibrous biomaterials shows varying cellular reactions to surface orientation, often due to unclear interactions between surface topography and substrate elasticity. Our study addresses this gap by achieving the rapid creation of hydrogels with diverse fibrous topographies and varying substrate moduli through a surface printing strategy. Cells exhibit heightened traction force on nanopatterned soft hydrogels, particularly with randomly distributed patterns compared with regular soft hydrogels. Meanwhile, on stiff hydrogels featuring an aligned topography, optimal cellular mechanosensing is observed compared to random topography. Mechanistic investigations highlight that cellular force-sensing and adhesion are influenced by the interplay of pattern deformability and focal adhesion orientation, subsequently mediating stem cell differentiation. Our findings highlight the importance of combining substrate modulus and topography to guide cellular behavior in designing advanced tissue engineering biomaterials.

Abstract
The rational design of hydrogel materials to modulate the immune microenvironment has emerged as a pivotal approach in expediting tissue repair and regeneration. Within the immune microenvironment, an array of immune cells exists, with macrophages gaining prominence in the field of tissue repair and regeneration due to their roles in cytokine regulation to promote regeneration, maintain tissue homeostasis, and facilitate repair. Macrophages can be categorized into two types: classically activated M1 (pro-inflammatory) and alternatively activated M2 (anti-inflammatory and pro-repair). By regulating the physical and chemical properties of hydrogels, the phenotypic transformation and cell behavior of macrophages can be effectively controlled, thereby promoting tissue regeneration and repair. A full understanding of the interaction between hydrogels and macrophages can provide new ideas and methods for future tissue engineering and clinical treatment. Therefore, this paper reviews the effects of hydrogel components, hardness, pore size, and surface morphology on cell behaviors such as macrophage proliferation, migration, and phenotypic polarization, and explores the application of hydrogels based on macrophage immune regulation in skin, bone, cartilage, and nerve tissue repair. Finally, the challenges and future prospects of macrophage-based immunomodulatory hydrogels are discussed.

Abstract
Nanosubstrate engineering can be a biomechanical approach for modulating stem cell differentiation in tissue engineering. However, the study of the effect of clathrin-mediated processes on manipulating this behavior is unexplored. Herein, we develop integrin-binding nanosubstrates with confined nanogeometries that regulate clathrin-mediated adhesion- or endocytosis-active signaling pathways for modulating stem fates. Isotropically presenting ligands on the nanoscale enhances the expression of clathrin in cells, thereby facilitating uptake of dexamethasone-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) to boost osteogenesis of stem cells. In contrast, anisotropic ligand nanogeometry suppresses this clathrin-mediated NP entry by strengthening the association between clathrin and adhesion spots to reinforce mechanotransduced signaling, which can be abrogated by the pharmacological inhibition of clathrin. Meanwhile, inhibiting focal adhesion formation hinders cell spreading and enables a higher endocytosis efficiency. Our findings reveal the crucial roles of clathrin in both endocytosis and mechanotransduction of stem cells and provide the parameter of ligand nanogeometry for the rational design of biomaterials for tissue engineering.

Synergy of antioxidant and M2 polarization in polyphenol-modified konjac glucomannan dressing for remodeling wound healing microenvironment. Bioeng Transl Med 2023; 8:e10398.

Abstract
Effective skin wound healing and tissue regeneration remain a challenge. Excessive/chronic inflammation inhibits wound healing, leading to scar formation. Herein, we report a wound dressing composed of KGM-GA based on the natural substances konjac glucomannan (KGM) and gallic acid (GA) that accelerates wound healing without any additional drugs. An in vitro study showed that KGM-GA could not only stimulate macrophage polarization to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype but also decrease reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, indicating excellent anti-inflammatory properties. Moreover, in vivo studies of skin wounds demonstrated that the KGM-GA dressing significantly improved wound healing by accelerating wound closure, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis. In addition, it was observed that KGM-GA regulated M2 polarization, reducing the production of intracellular ROS in the wound microenvironment, which was consistent with the in vitro experiments. Therefore, this study designed a multifunctional biomaterial with biological activity, providing a novel dressing for wound healing.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a highly dynamic system that constantly offers physical, biological, and chemical signals to embraced cells. Increasing evidence suggests that mechanical signals derived from the dynamic cellular microenvironment are essential controllers of cell behaviors. Conventional cell culture biomaterials, with static mechanical properties such as chemistry, topography, and stiffness, have offered a fundamental understanding of various vital biochemical and biophysical processes, such as cell adhesion, spreading, migration, growth, and differentiation. At present, novel biomaterials that can spatiotemporally impart biophysical cues to manipulate cell fate are emerging. The dynamic properties and adaptive traits of new materials endow them with the ability to adapt to cell requirements and enhance cell functions. In this review, an introductory overview of the key players essential to mechanobiology is provided. A biophysical perspective on the state-of-the-art manipulation techniques and novel materials in designing static and dynamic ECM-mimicking biomaterials is taken. In particular, different static and dynamic mechanical cues in regulating cellular mechanosensing and functions are compared. This review to benefit the development of engineering biomechanical systems regulating cell functions is expected.

Abstract
Intelligent control of the immune response is essential for obtaining percutaneous implants with good sterilization and tissue repair abilities. In this study, polypyrrole (Ppy) nanoparticles enveloping a 3D frame of sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SP) surface are constructed, which enhance the surface modulus and hardness of the sulfonated layer by forming a cooperative structure of simulated reinforced concrete and exhibit a superior photothermal effect. Ppy-coated SP could quickly accumulate heat on the surface by responding to 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) light, thereby killing bacteria, and destroying biofilms. Under NIR stimulation, the phagocytosis and M1 activation of macrophages cultured on Ppy-coated SP are enhanced by activating complement 3 and its receptor, CD11b. Phagocytosis and M1 activation are impaired along with abolishment of NIR stimulation in the Ppy-coated SP group, which is favorable for tissue repair. Ppy-coated SP promotes Collagen-I, vascular endothelial growth factor, connective tissue growth factor, and α-actin (Acta2) expression by inducing M2 polarization owing to its higher surface modulus. Overall, Ppy-coated SP with enhanced mechanical properties could be a good candidate for clinical percutaneous implants through on-off phagocytosis and switchable macrophage activation stimulated with NIR.

Abstract
Orthopedic implants provide an avascular surface for microbial attachment and biofilm formation, impeding the entry of immune cells and the diffusion of antibiotics. The above is an important cause of dental and orthopedic implant-associated infection (IAI). For the prevention and treatment of IAI, the drawbacks of antibiotic resistance and surgical treatment are increasingly apparent. Due to their outstanding biological properties such as biocompatibility, immunomodulatory effects, and antibacterial properties, graphene-based nanomaterials (GBNs) have been applied to bone tissue engineering to deal with IAI, and in particular have great potential application in drug/gene carriers, multi-functional platforms, and coating forms. Here we review the latest research progress and achievements in GBNs for the prevention and treatment of IAI, mainly including their biomedical applications for antibacterial and immunomodulation effects, and for inducing osteogenesis. Furthermore, the biosafety of graphene family materials in bone tissue regeneration and the feasibility of clinical application are critically analyzed and discussed.

Abstract
Nanomedicine offers considerable opportunities to improve drugability and reduce toxicity for tumour therapy. However, the application of nanomedicine has achieved little success in clinical trials due to multiple physiological barriers to drug delivery. Circulating cells are expected to improve the physical distribution of drugs and enhance the therapeutic effect by overcoming various biological barriers in collaboration with nano-drug delivery systems owing to excellent biocompatibility, low immunogenicity and a long-circulation time and strong binding specificity. Nonetheless, we have noticed some limitations in implementing tthe strategy. In this article, we intend to introduce the latest progress in research and application of circulating cell-mediated nano-drug delivery systems, describe the main cell-related drug delivery modes, sum up the relevant points of the transport systems in the process of loading, transport and release, and lastly discuss the advantages, challenges and future development trends in cell-mediated nano-drug delivery.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapy has shown promising therapeutic results in the clinic, albeit only in a limited number of cancer types, and its efficacy remains less than satisfactory. Nanoparticle-based approaches have been shown to increase the response to immunotherapies to address this limitation. In particular, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as a powerful manipulator are an appealing option for comprehensively regulating the immune system in vivo due to their unique magnetically responsive properties and high biocompatibility. This review focuses on assessing the potential applications of MNPs in enhancing tumor accumulation of immunotherapeutic agents and immunogenicity, improving immune cell infiltration, and creating an immunotherapy-sensitive environment. We summarize recent progress in the application of MNP-based manipulators to augment the efficacy of immunotherapy, by MNPs and their multiple magnetically responsive effects under different types of external magnetic field. Furthermore, we highlight the mechanisms underlying the promotion of antitumor immunity, including magnetically actuated delivery and controlled release of immunotherapeutic agents, tracking and visualization of immune response in real time, and magnetic regulation of innate/adaptive immune cells. Finally, we consider perspectives and challenges in MNP-based immunotherapy.

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

Abstract
Bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration is a complex spatiotemporal process recruiting a variety of cell types, whose activity and interplay must be precisely mediated for effective healing post-injury. Although extensive strides have been made in the understanding of the immune microenvironment processes governing bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration, effective clinical translation of these mechanisms remains a challenge. Regulation of the immune microenvironment is increasingly becoming a favorable target for bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration; therefore, an in-depth understanding of the communication between immune cells and functional tissue cells would be valuable. Herein, we review the regulatory role of the immune microenvironment in the promotion and maintenance of stem cell states in the context of bone, cartilage, and soft tissue repair and regeneration. We discuss the roles of various immune cell subsets in bone, cartilage, and soft tissue repair and regeneration processes and introduce novel strategies, for example, biomaterial-targeting of immune cell activity, aimed at regulating healing. Understanding the mechanisms of the crosstalk between the immune microenvironment and regeneration pathways may shed light on new therapeutic opportunities for enhancing bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration through regulation of the immune microenvironment.

Abstract
In the biological microenvironment, cells are surrounded by an extracellular matrix (ECM), with which they dynamically interact during various biological processes. Specifically, the physical and chemical properties of the ECM work cooperatively to influence the behavior and fate of cells directly and indirectly, which invokes various physiological responses in the body. Hence, efficient strategies to modulate cellular responses for a specific purpose have become important for various scientific fields such as biology, pharmacy, and medicine. Among many approaches, the utilization of biomaterials has been studied the most because they can be meticulously engineered to mimic cellular modulatory behavior. For such careful engineering, studies on physical modulation (e.g., ECM topography, stiffness, and wettability) and chemical manipulation (e.g., composition and soluble and surface biosignals) have been actively conducted. At present, the scope of research is being shifted from static (considering only the initial environment and the effects of each element) to biomimetic dynamic (including the concepts of time and gradient) modulation in both physical and chemical manipulations. This review provides an overall perspective on how the static and dynamic biomaterials are actively engineered to modulate targeted cellular responses while highlighting the importance and advance from static modulation to biomimetic dynamic modulation for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent chronic whole-joint disease characterized by low-grade systemic inflammation, degeneration of joint-related tissues such as articular cartilage, and alteration of bone structures that can eventually lead to disability. Emerging evidence has indicated that synovium or articular cartilage-secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) contribute to OA pathogenesis and physiology, including transporting and enhancing the production of inflammatory mediators and cartilage degrading proteinases. Bioactive components of EVs are known to play a role in OA include microRNA, long non-coding RNA, and proteins. Thus, OA tissues-derived EVs can be used in combination with advanced nanomaterial-based biosensors for the diagnostic assessment of OA progression. Alternatively, mesenchymal stem cell- or platelet-rich plasma-derived EVs (MSC-EVs or PRP-EVs) have high therapeutic value for treating OA, such as suppressing the inflammatory immune microenvironment, which is often enriched by pro-inflammatory immune cells and cytokines that reduce chondrocytes apoptosis. Moreover, those EVs can be modified or incorporated into biomaterials for enhanced targeting and prolonged retention to treat OA effectively. In this review, we explore recently reported OA-related pathological biomarkers from OA joint tissue-derived EVs and discuss the possibility of current biosensors for detecting EVs and EV-related OA biomarkers. We summarize the applications of MSC-EVs and PRP-EVs and discuss their limitations for cartilage regeneration and alleviating OA symptoms. Additionally, we identify advanced therapeutic strategies, including engineered EVs and applying biomaterials to increase the efficacy of EV-based OA therapies. Finally, we provide our perspective on the future of EV-related diagnosis and therapeutic potential for OA treatment.

Abstract
Functionalized nanomaterials of various categories are essential for developing cancer nano-theranostics for brain diseases; however, some limitations exist in their effectiveness and clinical translation, such as toxicity, limited tumor penetration, and inability to cross blood-brain and blood-tumor barriers. Metal nanomaterials with functional fluorescent tags possess unique properties in improving their functional properties, including surface plasmon resonance (SPR), superparamagnetism, and photo/bioluminescence, which facilitates imaging applications in addition to their deliveries. Moreover, these multifunctional nanomaterials could be synthesized through various chemical modifications on their physical surfaces via attaching targeting peptides, fluorophores, and quantum dots (QD), which could improve the application of these nanomaterials by facilitating theranostic modalities. In addition to their inherent CT (Computed Tomography), MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), PAI (Photo-acoustic imaging), and X-ray contrast imaging, various multifunctional nanoparticles with imaging probes serve as brain-targeted imaging candidates in several imaging modalities. The primary criteria of these functional nanomaterials for translational application to the brain must be zero toxicity. Moreover, the beneficial aspects of nano-theranostics of nanoparticles are their multifunctional systems proportioned towards personalized disease management via comprising diagnostic and therapeutic abilities in a single biodegradable nanomaterial. This review highlights the emerging aspects of engineered nanomaterials to reach and deliver therapeutics to the brain and how to improve this by adopting the imaging modalities for theranostic applications.

Abstract
Scar contraction frequently happens in patients with deep burn injuries. Hitherto, porcine dermal extracellular matrix (dECM) has supplied microenvironments that assist in wound healing but fail to inhibit scar contraction. To overcome this drawback, we integrate dECM into three-dimensional (3D)-printed dermal analogues (PDA) to prevent scar contraction. We have developed thermally gelled, non-rheologically modified dECM powder (dECMp) inks and successfully transformed them into PDA that was endowed with a micron-scale spatial structure. The optimal crosslinked PDA exhibited desired structure, good mechanical properties as well as excellent biocompatibility. Moreover, in vivo experiments demonstrated that PDA could significantly reduced scar contraction and improved cosmetic upshots of split thickness skin grafts (STSG) than the commercially available dermal templates and STSG along. The PDA has also induced an early, intense neovascularization, and evoked a type-2-like immune response. PDA's superior beneficial effects may attribute to their desired porous structure, the well-balanced physicochemical properties, and the preserved dermis-specific ECM cues, which collectively modulated the expression of genes such as Wnt11, ATF3, and IL1β, and influenced the crucial endogenous signalling pathways. The findings of this study suggest that PDA is a clinical translatable material that possess high potential in reducing scar contraction. Current dermal analogues have supplied microenvironments that assist in wound healing but cannot inhibit scar contraction. dECMp ink was formulated and transformed into PDA endowed with a micron-scale designed spatial structure. The PDAs were neatly superior to split thickness skin grafts and commercial dermal templates in hindering scar contraction. The transcriptome data may reveal how at the molecular level the IS and skin wounds respond to biomaterial stimuli.

Abstract
Cell polarization exists in a variety of tissues to regulate cell behaviors and functions. Space constraint (spatially limiting cell extension) and adhesion induction (guiding adhesome growth) are two main ways to induce cell polarization according to the microenvironment topographies. However, the mechanism of cell polarization induced by these two ways and the downstream effects on cell functions are yet to be understood. Here, space constraint and adhesion induction guiding cell polarization are achieved by substrate groove arrays in micro and nano size, respectively. Although the morphology of polarized cells is similar on both structures, the signaling pathways to induce the cell polarization and the downstream functions are distinctly different. The adhesion induction (nano-groove) leads to the formation of focal adhesions and activates the RhoA/ROCK pathway to enhance the myosin-based intracellular force, while the space constraint (micro-groove) only activates the formation of pseudopodia. The enhanced intracellular force caused by adhesion induction inhibits the chromatin condensation, which promotes the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. This study presents an overview of cell polarization and mechanosensing at biointerface to aid in the design of novel biomaterials.

Abstract
Due to the critical roles of macrophage in immune response and tissue repair, harnessing macrophage phenotypes dynamically to match the tissue healing process on demand attracted many attentions. Although there have developed many advanced platforms with dynamic features for cell manipulation, few studies have designed a dynamic chemical pattern to sequentially polarize macrophage phenotypes and meet the immune requirements at various tissue repair stages. Here, we propose a novel strategy for spatiotemporal manipulation of macrophage phenotypes by a UV-induced dynamic Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) pattern. By employing a photo-patterning technique and the specific interaction between cyclodextrin (CD) and azobenzene-RGD (Azo-RGD), we prepared a polyethylene glycol-dithiol/polyethylene glycol-norbornene (PEG-SH/PEG-Nor) hydrogel with dynamic RGD-patterned surface. After irradiation with 365-nm UV light, the homogeneous RGD surface was transformed to the RGD-patterned surface which induced morphological transformation of macrophages from round to elongated and subsequent phenotypic transition from pro-inflammation to anti-inflammation. The mechanism of phenotypic polarization induced by RGD pattern was proved to be related to Rho-associated protein kinase 2 (ROCK2). Sequential modulation of macrophage phenotypes by the dynamic RGD-patterned surface provides a remote and non-invasive strategy to manipulate immune reactions and achieve optimized healing outcomes.

Abstract
Although many tissue regeneration processes after biomaterial implantation are related to migrations of multiple cell types on material surfaces, available tools to adjust relative migration speeds are very limited. Herein, we put forward a nanomaterial strategy to employ surface modification with arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) nanoarrays to tune in vitro cell migration using endothelial cells (ECs) and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) as demonstrated cell types. We found that migrations of both cell types exhibited a nonmonotonic trend with the increase of RGD nanospacing, yet with different peaks-74 nm for SMCs but 95 nm for ECs. The varied sensitivities afford a facile way to regulate the relative migration speeds. Although ECs migrated at a speed similar to SMCs on a non-nano surface, the migration of ECs could be controlled to be significantly faster or slower than SMCs simply by adjusting the RGD nanospacing. This study suggests a potential application of surface modification of biomaterials on a nanoscale level.

Abstract
Bone is a self-regenerative tissue that can repair small defects and fractures. In large defects, bone tissue is unable to provide nutrients and oxygen for repair, and autologous grafting is used as the gold standard. As an alternative method, the bone tissue regeneration approach uses osteoconductive biomaterials to overcome bone graft disadvantages. However, biomaterials are considered as foreign components that can stimulate host immune responses. Although traditional principles have been aimed to minimize immune reactions, the design of biomaterials has steadily shifted toward creating an immunomodulatory microenvironment to harness immune cells and responses to repair damaged tissue. Among immune cells, macrophages secrete various immunomodulatory mediators and crosstalk with bone-forming cells and play key roles in bone tissue engineering. Macrophage polarization toward M1 and M2 subtypes mediate pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses, respectively, which are crucial for bone repairing at different stages. This review provides an overview of the crosstalk between various immune cells and biomaterials, macrophage polarization, and the effect of physicochemical properties of biomaterials on the immune responses, especially macrophages, in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The macrophages take significant roles in homeostasis, phagocytosis of pathogenic organisms, and modulation of host defense and inflammatory processes. In this study, the enantiomeric poly-D-lysine (PDL) and poly-L-lysine (PLL) were conjugated to gold nanorods (AuNRs) to study their influence on the polarization of macrophages. The AuNRs capped with cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) (AuNRs@CTAB) exhibited larger toxicity to macrophages when their concentration was higher than 50 μg/ml, whereas the AuNRs@PDL and AuNRs@PLL showed neglectable toxicity at the same concentration compared with the control. The AuNRs@PDL and AuNRs@PLL were internalized into the macrophages with a higher value than the AuNRs@CTAB as revealed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) characterization. Unlike the grafted PDL/PLL on flat substrates, the AuNRs@PDL and AuNRs@PLL were not able to polarize M0 macrophages to any other phenotype after internalization as confirmed by ELISA, flow cytometry, and fluorescence microscopy analysis. Nonetheless, the expression of M1 phenotype markers was reduced after the internalization of AuNRs@PDL and AuNRs@PLL by M1 macrophages. The assays of ELISA, flow cytometry, and reactive oxygen species levels exhibited decrease in inflammation of the M1 macrophages.

Abstract
Vascularization of tissue engineering constructs is an urgent need for delivering oxygen and nutrients and promoting tissue remodeling. As we all know, almost all implanted biomaterials elicit immune responses. Interestingly, the immunomodulatory biomaterials can utilize the inherent regenerative capability of endogenous cells and stem cells recruited by the activated immune cells to facilitate anagenesis and tissue remodeling. Macrophages, as almost ones of the first responses upon the implantation of biomaterials, play a vital role in guiding vascular formation and tissue remodeling. The polarization of macrophages can be influenced by the physical and chemical properties of biomaterials and thus they display diverse function states. Here, this review focus on the macrophage polarization in response to biomaterials and the interactions between them. It also summarizes the current strategies to promote vascularization of tissue engineering constructs through macrophage responses.

Abstract
The deadly Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak has become one of the most challenging pandemics in the last century. Clinical diagnosis reports a high infection rate within a large population and a rapid mutation rate upon every individual infection. The polymerase chain reaction has been a powerful and gold standard molecular diagnostic technique over the past few decades and hence a promising tool to detect the SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid sequences. However, it can be costly and involved in complicated processes with a high demand for on-site tests. This pandemic emphasizes the critical need for designing cost-effective and fast diagnosis strategies to prevent a potential viral source by ultrasensitive and selective biosensors. Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanocomposites have been developed with unique physical and chemical properties crucial for building up nucleic acid and protein biosensors. In this review, we cover various types of 2D TMD biosensors available for virus detection via the mechanisms of photoluminescence/optical, field-effect transistor, surface plasmon resonance, and electrochemical signals. We summarize the current state-of-the-art applications of 2D TMD nanocomposite systems for sensing proteins/nucleic acid from different types of lethal viruses. Finally, we identify and discuss the advantages and limitations of TMD-based nanocomposites biosensors for viral recognition.

Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a cardiovascular disease caused by extensive vascular remodeling in the lungs, which ultimately leads to death in consequence of right ventricle (RV) failure. While current drugs for PH therapy address the sustained vasoconstriction, no agent effectively targets vascular cell proliferation and tissue inflammation. Rho-associated protein kinases (ROCKs) emerged in the last few decades as promising targets for PH therapy, since ROCK inhibitors demonstrated significant anti-remodeling and anti-inflammatory effects. In this review, current aspects of ROCK inhibition therapy are discussed in relation to the treatment of PH and RV dysfunction, from cell biology to preclinical and clinical studies.

Abstract
Macrophages with the M1 phenotype are a type of immune cell with exciting prospects for cancer therapy; however, when these macrophages infiltrate into tumours, many of them are induced by the tumour microenvironment to transform into the M2 type, which can enable tumour defence against external therapeutic strategies, assisting in tumour development. Macrophages have strong plasticity and functional heterogeneity, and their phenotypic transformation is complex and still poorly understood in relation to cancer therapy. Recent material advances in inorganic nanomaterials, especially inorganic elements in vivo, have accelerated the development of macrophage regulation-based cancer treatments. This review summarizes the basics of recent research on macrophage phenotype transformation and discusses the current challenges in macrophage type regulation. Then, the current achievements involving inorganic material-based macrophage regulation and the related anticancer effects of induced macrophages and their extracellular secretions are reviewed systematically. Importantly, inorganic nanomaterial-based macrophage phenotype regulation is flexible and can be adapted for different types of cancer therapies, presenting a possible novel approach for the generation of immune materials for cancer therapy.

Abstract
Immunomodulation in the local tissue microenvironment is pivotal for the determination of macrophage phenotypes and regulation of functions necessary for pro-healing effects. Herein, we demonstrate that a lymph node extracellular matrix (LNEM) prepared by the decellularization of lymph node tissues can mimic lymph node microenvironments for immunomodulation in two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) formats. The LNEM exhibits strengthened immunomodulatory effects in comparison to conventional collagen-based platforms. A 3D LNEM hydrogel is more effective than the 2D LNEM coating in inducing M2 macrophage polarization. The 3D LNEM induces macrophage elongation and enhances the M2-type marker expression and the secretion of anti-inflammatory cytokines. Additionally, the phagocytic function of macrophages is improved upon exposure to the intricate 3D LNEM environment. We demonstrate the reduced susceptibility of liver organoids to a hepatotoxic drug when co-cultured with macrophages in a 3D LNEM. This effect could be attributed to the enhanced anti-inflammatory functions and indicates its potential as a drug-testing platform that enables drug responses similar to those observed in vivo. Finally, the implantation of an LNEM hydrogel in a mouse volumetric muscle loss model facilitates the recruitment of host macrophages to the site of injury and enhances macrophage polarization toward the M2 phenotype for tissue healing in vivo. Therefore, 3D immune system-mimicking biomaterials could serve as useful platforms for tissue modeling and regenerative medicine development.

Abstract
Background The proper topography of implant surface can induce macrophages polarization, whereas the regulation mechanism has not been fully deciphered. The study aimed to examine the regulation mechanism of macrophages M2 polarization by titanium (Ti) implant surface micro/nano topography. Results Firstly, the titanium implant micropits-nanotubular surface with ~30 nm diameters (MNT) can induce the M2 polarization of RAW264.7 spontaneously, as indicated by the spindle-like cell morphological alteration and specific molecular marker arginase-1 (Arg1) expression. Next, the autophagic vacuoles (AVs) number is significantly increased on MNT surface, as confirmed by the monodansylcadaverine (MDC) and CYTO-ID staining as well as the transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation. In addition, increasing or decreasing the autophagosomes number by rapamycin or 3-methyladenine (3-MA) will result in augmentation or attenuation of Arg1. Furthermore, blocking the fusion between autophagosomes and lysosomes by bafilomycin also significantly reduces Arg1, even in the presence of rapamycin. Finally, the ERK phosphorylation is selectively upregulated on MNT surface and the AVs number and Arg1 expression are significantly suppressed by U0126 treatment. Conclusion Our findings suggest that the ERK-Beclin-1-autophagy axis may play a pivotal role in the regulation of M2 polarization induced by nanotopography.

Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2020; 284:102265. [PMID: 33007580 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2020.102265] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2020] [Revised: 09/02/2020] [Accepted: 09/03/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Nanostructured surfaces feature promising biological properties on biomaterials attracting large interest at basic research, implant industry development, and bioengineering applications. Thou, nanoscale interactions at a molecular and cellular level are not yet completely understood and its biological and clinical implications need to be further elucidated. As follows, the aim of this comprehensive review was to evaluate nanostructured surfaces at biomedical implants focusing on surface development, nanostructuration, and nanoengineered drug delivery systems that can induce specific cell interactions in all relevant aspects of biological, reparative, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory and clinical processes. The methods and the physio-chemical properties involved in nanotopography performance, the main cellular characteristics involved at surface/cell interaction, and a summary of results and outlooks reported in studies applying nanostructured surfaces and nano-drug delivery systems is presented. The future prospects and commercial translation of this developing field, particularly concerning multifunctional nanostructured surfaces and its clinical implications are further discussed. At a cellular level, nanostructured biomedical implant surfaces can enhance osteogenesis by targeting osteoblasts, osteocytes, and mesenchymal cells, stimulate fibroblast/epithelial cells proliferation and adherence, inhibit bacterial cell proliferation and biofilm accumulation, and act as immune-modulating surfaces targeting macrophages and reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. Moreover, several methodological options to create drug-delivery systems on metallic implant surfaces are available, however, the clinical translation is yet incomplete. The efficiency of which nanostructured/nano-delivery surfaces may target specific cell interactions and favor clinical outcomes needs to be further elucidated in pre-clinical and clinical studies, along with engineering solutions for commercial translation and approval of controlling agencies.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating subtype of stroke with high morbidity and mortality. However, there is no effective therapy method to improve its clinical outcomes to date. Here we report an injectable gelatin hydrogel that is capable of suppressing inflammation and enhancing functional recovery in a mouse model of ICH. Thiolated gelatin was synthesized by EDC chemistry and then the hydrogel was formed through Michael addition reaction between the thiolated gelatin and polyethylene glycol diacrylate. The hydrogel was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, porosity, rheology, and cytotoxicity before evaluating in a mouse model of ICH. The in vivo study showed that the hydrogel injection into the ICH lesion reduced the neuron loss, attenuated the neurological deficit post-operation, and decreased the activation of the microglia/macrophages and astrocytes. More importantly, the pro-inflammatory M1 microglia/macrophages polarization was suppressed while the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype was promoted after the hydrogel injection. Besides, the hydrogel injection reduced the release of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNF-α). Moreover, integrin β1 was confirmed up-regulated around the lesion that is positively correlated with the M2 microglia/macrophages. The related mechanism was proposed and discussed. Taken together, the injectable gelatin hydrogel suppressed the inflammation which might contribute to enhance the functional recovery of the ICH mouse, making it a promising application in the clinic.

Abstract
The immunologic response toward chronic inflammation or bone regeneration via the accumulation of M1 or M2 macrophages after injury could determine the fate of biomaterial. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) have a pivotal immunomodulatory property on directing macrophage behaviors. Herein, for the first time, 3D-printed poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffolds modified with hUCMSC-derived extracellular matrix (PLGA-ECM) are prepared by a facile tissue engineering technique with physical decellularization and 2.44 ± 0.29 mg cm-3 proteins immobilized on the PLGA-ECM contain multiple soluble cytokines with a sustainable release profile. The PLGA-ECM not only attenuates the foreign body response, but also improves bone regeneration by increasing the accumulation of M2 macrophages in an improved heterotopic transplantation model of SCID mice. Furthermore, the PLGA-ECM scaffolds with the knockdown of transforming growth factor-β-induced protein (TGFβI/βig-H3) demonstrate that M2 macrophage accumulation improved by the PLGA-ECM could be attributed to increasing the migration of M2 macrophages and the repolarization of M1 macrophages to M2 phenotype, which are mediated by multiple integrin signaling pathways involving in integrin β7, integrin α9, and integrin β1 in a TGFβI-dependent manner. This study presents an effective surface modification strategy of polymeric scaffolds to initiate tissue regeneration and combat inflammatory response by increasing M2 macrophage accumulation.

Abstract
Developing materials with remote controllability of macroscale ligand presentation can mimic extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling to regulate cellular adhesion in vivo. Herein, we designed charged mobile nanoligands with superparamagnetic nanomaterials amine-functionalized and conjugated with polyethylene glycol linker and negatively charged RGD ligand. We coupled negatively a charged nanoligand to a positively charged substrate by optimizing electrostatic interactions to allow reversible planar movement. We demonstrate the imaging of both macroscale and in situ nanoscale nanoligand movement by magnetically attracting charged nanoligand to manipulate macroscale ligand density. We show that in situ magnetic control of attracting charged nanoligand facilitates stem cell adhesion, both in vitro and in vivo, with reversible control. Furthermore, we unravel that in situ magnetic attraction of charged nanoligand stimulates mechanosensing-mediated differentiation of stem cells. This remote controllability of ECM-mimicking reversible ligand variations is promising for regulating diverse reparative cellular processes in vivo.

Abstract
Inspired by stimuli-tailored dynamic processes that spatiotemporally create structural and functional diversity in biology, a new hierarchical patterning strategy is proposed to induce the emergence of complex multidimensional structures via dynamic sacrificial printing of stimuli-responsive hydrogels. Using thermally responsive gelatin (Gel) and pH-responsive chitosan (Chit) as proof-of-concept materials, we demonstrate that the initially printed sacrificial material (Gel/Chit-H+ hydrogel with a single gelatin network) can be converted dynamically into non-sacrificial material (Gel/Chit-H+-Citr hydrogel with gelatin and an electrostatic citrate-chitosan dual network) under stimulus cues (citrate ions). Complex hierarchical structures and functions can be created by controlling either the printing patterns of citrate ink or the diffusion time of citrate ions into the Gel/Chit-H+ hydrogel. Specifically, mechanically anisotropic hydrogel film and cell patterning can be achieved via two-dimensional (2D) patterning; complex external and internal 3D structures can be fabricated in stimuli-responsive hydrogel and other hydrogels that are not stimuli-responsive under experimental conditions (also owing to the erasable properties of Gel/Chit-H+-Citr hydrogel) via 3D patterning; and an interconnected or segregated fluidic network can be constructed from the same initial 3D grid structure via 4D patterning. Our method is very simple, safe and generally reagentless, and the products/structures are often erasable, compatible and digestible, enabling advanced fabrication technologies (e.g. additive manufacturing) to be applied to a sustainable materials platform.

Abstract
Therapy of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been a difficult task in the medical field. There is a great clinical need for more effective treatments for IBD. Herein, a targeted oral delivery system of yeast glucan particles (YGPs) carrying a clinically used anti-inflammatory drug methotrexate (MTX) to the inflamed sites in IBD mice for therapy is reported. In the findings, MTX is effectively loaded into YGPs through re-precipitation followed by gelation reaction of alginate to obtain the composite YGPs/MTX, which are internalized into RAW264.7 macrophage cells through dectin-1 and CR3 receptors. Furthermore, YGPs/MTX can suppress the proliferation of macrophage cells efficiently, leading to down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines induced by lipopolysaccharides. Additionally, YGPs accumulate in the inflammation site of colitis mice, enabling YGPs/MTX to target the inflammatory site, significantly improve the efficacy of MTX, and reduce the cytotoxicity of MTX. Therefore, the YGPs-based drug delivery system provides a new strategy for MTX application in the clinical treatment of IBD.

Abstract
Material surface topographic features have been shown to be crucial for tissue regeneration and surface treatment of implanted devices. Many biomaterials were investigated with respect to the response of cells on surface roughness. However, some conclusions even conflicted with each other due to the unclear interplay of surface topographic features and substrate elastic features as well as the lack of mechanistic studies. Herein, wide-scale surface roughness gradient hydrogels, integrating the surface roughness from nanoscale to microscale with controllable stiffness, were developed via soft lithography with precise surface morphology. Based on this promising platform, we systematically studied the mechanosensitive response of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to a broad range of roughnesses (200 nm to 1.2 μm for Rq) and different substrate stiffnesses. We observed that MSCs responded to surface roughness in a stiffness-dependent manner by reorganizing the surface hierarchical structure. Surprisingly, the cellular mechanoresponse and osteogenesis were obviously enhanced on very soft hydrogels (3.8 kPa) with high surface roughness, which was comparable to or even better than that on smooth stiff substrates. These findings extend our understanding of the interactions between cells and biomaterials, highlighting an effective noninvasive approach to regulate stem cell fate via synergetic physical cues.

Abstract
Immune response is critical to tissue repair. Designing biomaterials with immunomodulatory functions has become a promising strategy to facilitate tissue repair. Considering the key roles of macrophages in tissue repair and the significance of the balance of M1 and M2, smart biomaterials, which can harness macrophage phenotypes dynamically to match the tissue healing process on demand, have attracted a lot of attention to be set apart from the traditional anti-inflammatory biomaterials. Here, we prepare a gold nanorod-contained shape memory polycaprolactone film with dynamic surface topography, which has the ability to be transformed from flat to microgrooved under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. Based on the close relationships between the morphologies and the phenotypes of macrophages, the NIR-triggered surface transformation induces the elongation of macrophages, and consequently the upregulated expressions of arginase-1 and IL-10 in vitro, indicating the change of macrophage phenotypes. The sequential modulation of macrophage phenotypes by dynamic surface topography is further confirmed in an in vivo implantation test. The healing-matched modulation of macrophage phenotypes by dynamic surface topography without the stimuli of cytokines offers an effective and noninvasive strategy to manipulate tissue regenerative immune reactions to achieve optimized healing outcomes.

Abstract
Folded single chain polymeric nano-objects are the molecular level soft material with ultra-small size. Here, we report an easy and scalable method for preparing single-chain nanogels (SCNGs) with improved efficiency. We further investigate the impact of the dynamic molecular conformational change of SCNGs on cellular interactions from molecular to bulk scale. First, the supramolecular unfoldable SCNGs efficiently deliver siRNAs into stem cells as a molecular drug carrier in a conformation-dependent manner. Furthermore, the conformation changes of SCNGs enable dynamic and precise manipulation of ligand tether structure on 2D biomaterial interfaces to regulate the ligand-receptor ligation and mechanosensing of cells. Lastly, the dynamic SCNGs as the building blocks provide effective energy dissipation to bulk biomaterials such as hydrogels, thereby protecting the encapsulated stem cells from deleterious mechanical shocks in 3D matrix. Such a bottom-up molecular tailoring strategy will inspire further applications of single-chain nano-objects in the biomedical area.
