Abstract
Microbial polysaccharides (MPs) are biopolymers secreted by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi during their metabolic processes. Compared to polysaccharides derived from plants and animals, MPs have advantages such as wide sources, high production efficiency, and less susceptibility to natural environmental influences. The most attractive feature of MPs lies in their diverse biological activities, such as antioxidative, anti-tumor, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory activities, which have demonstrated immense potential for applications in functional foods, cosmetics, and biomedicine. These bioactivities are precisely regulated by their sophisticated molecular structure. However, the mechanisms underlying this precise regulation are not yet fully understood and continue to evolve. This article presents a comprehensive review of the most representative species of MPs, including their fermentation and purification processes and their biomedical applications in recent years. In particular, this work presents an in-depth analysis into the structure-activity relationships of MPs across multiple molecular levels. Additionally, this review discusses the challenges and prospects of investigating the structure-activity relationships, providing valuable insights into the broad and high-value utilization of MPs.

Abstract
Early reconstruction of the vascular network is a prerequisite to the effective treatment of substantial bone defects. Traditional 3D printed tissue engineering scaffolds designed to repair large bone defects do not effectively regenerate the vascular network, and rely only on the porous structure within the scaffold for nutrient transfer and metabolic waste removal. This leads to delayed bone restoration and hence functional recovery. Therefore, strategies for generation scaffolds with the capacity to efficiently regenerate vascularization should be developed. This study loads roxarestat (RD), which can stabilize HIF-1α expression in a normoxic environment, onto the mesopore polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA@RD) to enhance the reconstruction of vascular network in large bone defects. Subsequently, MPDA@RD is mixed with GelMA/HA hydrogel bioink to fabricate a multifunctional hydrogel scaffold (GHM@RD) through 3D printing. In vitro results show that the GHM@RD scaffolds achieve good angiogenic-osteogenic coupling by activating the PI3K/AKT/HSP90 pathway in BMSCs and the PI3K/AKT/HIF-1α pathway in HUVECs under mild thermotherapy. In vivo experiments reveal that RD and mild hyperthermia synergistically induce early vascularization and bone regeneration of critical bone defects. In conclusion, the designed GHM@RD drug delivery scaffold with mild hyperthermia holds great therapeutic value for future treatment of large bone defects.

[PMID: 38391475 PMCID: PMC10888377 DOI: 10.3390/gels10020145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2024] [Revised: 02/07/2024] [Accepted: 02/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gelatin-xanthan gum (Gel-Xnt) hydrogel has been previously modified to improve its printability; now, to increase its ability for use as cell-laden 3D scaffolds (bioink), polydopamine (PDA), a biocompatible, antibacterial, adhesive, and antioxidant mussel-inspired biopolymer, has been added (1-3% v/v) to hydrogel. METHODS Control (CT) and PDA-blended hydrogels were used to print 1 cm2 grids. The hydrogels' printability, moisture, swelling, hydrolysis, and porosity were tested after glutaraldehyde (GTA) crosslinking, while biocompatibility was tested using primary human-derived skin fibroblasts and spontaneously immortalized human keratinocytes (HaCaT). Keratinocyte or fibroblast suspension (100 µL, 2.5 × 105 cells) was combined with an uncrosslinked CT and PDA blended hydrogel to fabricate cylinders (0.5 cm high, 1 cm wide). These cylinders were then cross-linked and incubated for 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days. The presence of cells within various hydrogels was assessed using optical microscopy. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION PDA blending did not modify the hydrogel printability or physiochemical characteristics, suggesting that PDA did not interfere with GTA crosslinking. On the other hand, PDA presence strongly accelerated and increased both fibroblast and keratinocyte growth inside. This effect seemed to be linked to the adhesive abilities of PDA, which improve cell adhesion and, in turn, proliferation. CONCLUSIONS The simple PDA blending method described could help in obtaining a new bioink for the development of innovative 3D-printed wound dressings.

Abstract
There is great clinical demand for orthopedic and dental implant surface modification methods to prevent osseointegration failure and improve implant biological functions. Notably, dopamine (DA) can be polymerized to form polydopamine (PDA), which is similar to the adhesive proteins secreted by mussels, to form a stable bond between the bone surface and implants. Therefore, PDA has the potential to be used as an implant surface modification material with good hydrophilicity, roughness, morphology, mechanical strength, biocompatibility, antibacterial activity, cellular adhesion, and osteogenesis. In addition, PDA degradation releases DA into the surrounding microenvironment, which is found to play an important role in regulating DA receptors on both osteoblasts and osteoclasts during the bone remodeling process. Furthermore, the adhesion properties of PDA suggest its use as an intermediate layer in assisting other functional bone remodeling materials, such as nanoparticles, growth factors, peptides, and hydrogels, to form "dual modifications." The purpose of this review is to summarize the recent progress in research on PDA and its derivatives as orthopedic and dental implant surface modification materials and to analyze the multiple functions of PDA.

Abstract
In this work, we report a versatile and tunable platform for the construction of various cell array biochips using a simple soft lithographic approach to pattern polydopamine (PDA) arrays via microcontact printing (μCP). Instead of direct polymerization of PDA on the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) tips, dopamine monomers were first printed on the substrate followed by a self-oxidative polymerization step facilitated by ammonia vapor to grow PDA in situ, which greatly reduced the reaction time and prevented the PDMS tips from damaging. The improved robustness and utility of the PDMS tips allows the formation of tunable PDA array chips with controllable PDA feature size and shape. As a result, single cell, multi-cells and cell line arrays can be constructed. The obtained cell array chips showed high single cell capture efficiency, providing a standardized single cell array analysis platform. Meanwhile, the adhered cells can maintain excellent viability and proliferation ability on the PDA chips. Moreover, a cytotoxicity sensor with single cell resolution was enabled on the single cell array chip. This work provides a promising cell array biochip platform for high-throughput cellular analysis and cell screening.

Abstract
Treatment of complete loss of skin thickness requires expensive cellular materials and limited skin grafts used as temporary coverage. This paper presents an acellular bilayer scaffold modified with polydopamine (PDA), which is designed to mimic a missing dermis and a basement membrane (BM). The alternate dermis is made from freeze-dried collagen and chitosan (Coll/Chit) or collagen and a calcium salt of oxidized cellulose (Coll/CaOC). Alternate BM is made from electrospun gelatin (Gel), polycaprolactone (PCL), and CaOC. Morphological and mechanical analyzes have shown that PDA significantly improved the elasticity and strength of collagen microfibrils, which favorably affected swelling capacity and porosity. PDA significantly supported and maintained metabolic activity, proliferation, and viability of the murine fibroblast cell lines. The in vivo experiment carried out in a domestic Large white pig model resulted in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the first 1-2 weeks, giving the idea that PDA and/or CaOC trigger the early stages of inflammation. Otherwise, in later stages, PDA caused a reduction in inflammation with the expression of the anti-inflammatory molecule IL10 and the transforming growth factor β (TGFβ1), which could support the formation of fibroblasts. Similarities in treatment with native porcine skin suggested that the bilayer can be used as an implant for full-thickness skin wounds and thus eliminate the use of skin grafts.

Abstract
Gellan gum (GG) was chemically modified with methacrylic moieties to produce a photocrosslinkable biomaterial ink, hereinafter called methacrylated GG (GGMA), with improved physico-chemical properties, mechanical behavior and stability under physiological conditions. Afterwards, GGMA was functionalized by incorporating two different bioactive compounds, a naturally derived eumelanin extracted from the black soldier fly (BSF-Eumel), or hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (HAp), synthesized by the sol-gel method. Different ink formulations based on GGMA (2 and 4% (w/v)), BSF-Eumel, at a selected concentration (0.3125 mg/mL), or HAp (10 and 30% wHAp/wGGMA) were developed and processed by three-dimensional (3D) printing. All the functionalized GGMA-based ink formulations allowed obtaining 3D-printed GGMA-based scaffolds with a well-organized structure. For both bioactive signals, the scaffolds with the highest GGMA concentration (4% (w/v)) and the highest percentage of infill (45%) showed the best performances in terms of morphological and mechanical properties. Indeed, these scaffolds showed a good structural integrity over 28 days. Given the presence of negatively charged groups along the eumelanin backbone, scaffolds consisting of GGMA/BSF-Eumel demonstrated a higher stability. From a mechanical point of view, GGMA/BSF-Eumel scaffolds exhibited values of storage modulus similar to those of GGMA ones, while the inclusion of HAp at 30% (wHAp/wGGMA) led to a storage modulus of 32.5 kPa, 3.5-fold greater than neat GGMA. In vitro studies proved the capability of the bioactivated 3D-printed scaffolds to support 7F2 osteoblast cell growth and differentiation. BSF-Eumel and HAp triggered a different time-dependent physiological response in the osteoblasts. Specifically, while the ink with BSF-Eumel acted as a stimulus towards cell proliferation, reaching the highest value at 14 days, a higher expression of alkaline phosphatase activity was detected for scaffolds consisting of GGMA and HAp. The overall findings demonstrated the possible use of these biomaterial inks for 3D-printed bone tissue-engineered scaffolds.

Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are a subpopulation of mesenchymal stem cells. Compared to bone marrow-derived stem cells, they can be harvested with minimal invasiveness. ASCs can be easily expanded and were shown to be able to differentiate into several clinically relevant cell types. Therefore, this cell type represents a promising component in various tissue engineering and medical approaches (e.g., cell therapy). In vivo cells are surrounded by the extracellular matrix (ECM) that provides a wide range of tissue-specific physical and chemical cues, such as stiffness, topography, and chemical composition. Cells can sense the characteristics of their ECM and respond to them in a specific cellular behavior (e.g., proliferation or differentiation). Thus, in vitro biomaterial properties represent an important tool to control ASCs behavior. In this review, we give an overview of the current research in the mechanosensing of ASCs and current studies investigating the impact of material stiffens, topography, and chemical modification on ASC behavior. Additionally, we outline the use of natural ECM as a biomaterial and its interaction with ASCs regarding cellular behavior.

Abstract
The damage to retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells can lead to vision loss and permanent blindness. Therefore, an effective therapeutic strategy has emerged to replace damaged cells through RPE cell delivery. In this study, we fabricated injectable gellan gum (GG)/silk sericin (SS) hydrogels as a cell carrier by blending GG and SS. To determine the appropriate concentration of SS for human RPE ARPE-19, 0, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.5% (w/v) of SS solution were blended in 1% (w/v) GG solution (GG/SS 0%, GG/SS 0.05%, GG/SS 0.1%, and GG/SS 0.5%, respectively). The physical and chemical properties were measured through Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, mass swelling, and weight loss. Also, viscosity, injection force, and compressive tests were used to evaluate mechanical characteristics. Cell proliferation and differentiation of ARPE-19 were evaluated using quantitative dsDNA analysis and real-time polymerase chain reaction, respectively. The addition of SS gave GG/SS hydrogels a compressive strength similar to that of natural RPE tissue, which may well support the growth of RPE and enhance cell proliferation and differentiation. In particular, the GG/SS 0.5% hydrogel showed the most similar compressive strength (about 10 kPa) and exhibited the highest gene expression related to ARPE-19 cell proliferation. These results indicate that GG/SS 0.5% hydrogels can be a promising biomaterial for cell delivery in retina tissue engineering.

Abstract
After several billions of years, nature still makes decisions on its own to identify, develop, and direct the most effective material for phenomena/challenges faced. Likewise, and inspired by the nature, we learned how to take steps in developing new technologies and materials innovations. Wet and strong adhesion by Mytilidae mussels (among which Mytilus edulis—blue mussel and Mytilus californianus—California mussel are the most well‐known species) has been an inspiration in developing advanced adhesives for the moist condition. The wet adhesion phenomenon is significant in designing tissue adhesives and surgical sealants. However, a deep understanding of engaged chemical moieties, microenvironmental conditions of secreted proteins, and other contributing mechanisms for outstanding wet adhesion mussels are essential for the optimal design of wet glues. In this review, all aspects of wet adhesion of Mytilidae mussels, as well as different strategies needed for designing and fabricating wet adhesives are discussed from a chemistry point of view. Developed muscle‐inspired chemistry is a versatile technique when designing not only wet adhesive, but also, in several more applications, especially in the bioengineering area. The applications of muscle‐inspired biomaterials in various medical applications are summarized for future developments in the field.

Abstract
Designing biomaterials capable of biomimicking wound healing and skin regeneration has been receiving increasing attention recently. Some biopolymers behave similarly to the extracellular matrix (ECM), supporting biointerfacial adhesion and intrinsic cellular interactions. Polydopamine (PDA) is a natural bioadhesive and bioactive polymer that endows high chemical versatility, making it an exciting candidate for a wide range of biomedical applications. Moreover, biomaterials based on PDA and its derivatives have near-infrared (NIR) absorption, excellent biocompatibility, intrinsic antioxidative activity, antibacterial activity, and cell affinity. PDA can regulate cell behavior by controlling signal transduction pathways. It governs the focal adhesion behavior of cells at the biomaterials interface. These features make melanin-like PDA a fascinating biomaterial for wound healing and skin regeneration. This paper overviews PDA-based biomaterials' synthesis, properties, and interactions with biological entities. Furthermore, the utilization of PDA nano- and microstructures as a constituent of wound-dressing formulations is highlighted.

Abstract
Bioprinting is an emerging technology for manufacturing cell-laden three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds, which are used to fabricate complex 3D constructs and provide specific microenvironments for supporting cell growth and differentiation. The development of bioinks with appropriate printability and specific bioactivities is crucial for bioprinting and tissue engineering applications, including bone tissue regeneration. Therefore, to produce functional bioinks for osteoblast printing and bone tissue formation, we formulated various nanocomposite hydrogel-based bioinks using natural and biocompatible biomaterials (i.e., alginate, tempo-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNF), and polydopamine nanoparticles (PDANPs)). Rheological studies and printability tests revealed that bioinks containing 1.5% alginate and 1.5% TOCNF in the presence or absence of PDANP (0.5%) are suitable for 3D printing. Furthermore, in vitro studies of 3D-printed osteoblast-laden scaffolds indicated that the 0.5% PDANP-incorporated bioink induced significant osteogenesis. Overall, the bioink consisting of alginate, TOCNF, and PDANPs exhibited excellent printability and bioactivity (i.e., osteogenesis).

Abstract
Hydrogels can be fabricated and designed to exert direct control over stem cells' adhesion and differentiation. In this study, we have investigated the use of polydopamine (pDA)-treatment as a binding platform for bioactive compounds to create a versatile gelatin-alginate (Gel-Alg) hydrogel for tissue engineering applications. Precisely, pDA was used to modify the surface properties of the hydrogel and better control the adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs). pDA enabled the adsorption of different types of bioactive molecules, including a model osteoinductive drug (dexamethasone) as well as a model pro-angiogenic peptide (QK). The pDA treatment efficiently retained the drug and the peptide compared to the untreated hydrogel and proved to be effective in controlling the morphology, cell area, and osteogenic differentiation of hASCs. Overall, the findings of this study confirm the efficacy of pDA treatment as a valuable strategy to modulate the biological properties of biocompatible Gel-Alg hydrogels and further extend their value in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Cell adhesion-mediated piezoelectric stimulation provides a noninvasive method for in situ electrical regulation of cell behavior, offering new opportunities for the design of smart materials for tissue engineering and bioelectronic medicines. In particular, the surface potential is mainly dominated by the inherent piezoelectricity of the biomaterial and the dynamic adhesion state of cells. The development of an efficient and optimized material interface would have important implications in cell regulation. Herein, we modified the surface of poled poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) membranes through polymerization of dopamine and investigated their influence on cell adhesion and electromechanical self-stimulation. Our results demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells seeded on the poled PVDF membrane exhibited stronger cell spreading and adhesion. Meanwhile, the surface modification through polydopamine significantly improved the hydrophilicity of the samples and contributed to the formation of cell actin bundles and maturation of focal adhesions, which further positively modulated cell piezoelectric self-stimulation and induced intracellular calcium transients. Combining with theoretical simulations, we found that the self-stimulation was enhanced mainly due to the increase of the adhesion site and adhesion force magnitude. These findings provide new insights for probing the cell regulation mechanism on piezoelectric substrates, offering more opportunities for the rational design of piezoelectric biomaterial interfaces for biomedical engineering.

Abstract
Thanks to its simplicity, versatility, and secondary reactivity, dopamine self-polymerized coatings (pDA) have been widely used in surface modification of biomaterials, but the limitation in secondary molecular grafting and the high roughness restrain their application in some special scenarios. Therefore, some other catecholamine coatings analog to pDA have attracted more and more attention, including the smoother poly-norepinephrine coating (pNE), and the poly-levodopa coating (pLD) containing additional carboxyl groups. However, the lack of a systematic comparison of the properties, especially the biological properties of the above three catecholamine coatings, makes it difficult to give a guiding opinion on the application scenarios of different coatings. Herein, we systematically studied the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the three catecholamine coatings, and explored the feasibility of their application for the modification of biomaterials, especially cardiovascular materials. Among them, the pDA coating was the roughest, with the largest amount of amino and phenolic hydroxyl groups for molecule grafting, and induced the strongest platelet adhesion and activation. The pLD coating was the thinnest and most hydrophilic but triggered the strongest inflammatory response. The pNE coating was the smoothest, with the best hemocompatibility and histocompatibility, and with the strongest cell selectivity of promoting the proliferation of endothelial cells while inhibiting the proliferation of smooth muscle cells. To sum up, the pNE coating may be a better choice for the surface modification of cardiovascular materials, especially those for vascular stents and grafts, but it is still not widely recognized.
