Biomolecules 2024; 14:1041. [PMID: 39199426 PMCID: PMC11352253 DOI: 10.3390/biom14081041] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2024] [Revised: 08/20/2024] [Accepted: 08/20/2024] [Indexed: 09/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Blood-contact devices are prone to inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, coagulation, and the uncontrolled release of metal ions during implantation and service. Therefore, it is essential to make these multifunctional. Herein, a superhydrophobic DE@ZnS-ZnO@SA film (composed of dabigatran ester, zinc sulfite, zinc oxide, and stearic acid, respectively) is produced. The prepared film has non-adhesion and antibacterial properties, superior mechanical stability, durability, corrosion resistance, and is self-cleaning and blood-repellent. The results of the hemolysis, cytotoxicity, and other anticoagulant experiments revealed that the film had good blood compatibility, no cytotoxicity, and excellent anticoagulant properties. The film displays anticoagulant properties even after being immersed in Phosphate-Buffered Saline (PBS) for 7 days. Furthermore, the film can spontaneously release H2S gas for 90 h after soaking in an acidic environment (pH = 6) for 90 h. This property improves the acidic microenvironment of the lesion and promotes the proliferation of endothelial cells by using H2S gas. In addition, the film can inhibit the uncontrollable release of Zn2+ ions, avoiding its toxicity even when immersed in an acid environment for 35 days. This time-sequential functionalized surface has the potential to typify the future of blood-contacting scaffolds for long-lasting use.

Abstract
Valvular heart disease (VHD) has become a burden and a growing public health problem in humans, causing significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. An increasing number of patients with severe VHD need to undergo heart valve replacement surgery, and artificial heart valves are in high demand. However, allogeneic valves from donors are lacking and cannot meet clinical practice needs. A mechanical heart valve can activate the coagulation pathway after contact with blood after implantation in the cardiovascular system, leading to thrombosis. Therefore, bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are still a promising way to solve this problem. However, there are still challenges in the use of BHVs. For example, their longevity is still unsatisfactory due to the defects, such as thrombosis, structural valve degeneration, calcification, insufficient re-endothelialization, and the inflammatory response. Therefore, strategies and methods are needed to effectively improve the biocompatibility and longevity of BHVs. This review describes the recent research advances in BHVs and strategies to improve their biocompatibility and longevity.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are characterized by abnormalities in the heart, blood vessels, and blood flow. CVDs comprise a diverse set of health issues. There are several types of CVDs like stroke, endothelial dysfunction, thrombosis, atherosclerosis, plaque instability and heart failure. Identification of a new drug for heart disease takes longer duration and its safety efficacy test takes even longer duration of research and approval. This chapter explores drug repurposing, nano-therapy, and plant-based treatments for managing CVDs from existing drugs which saves time and safety issues with testing new drugs. Existing drugs like statins, ACE inhibitor, warfarin, beta blockers, aspirin and metformin have been found to be useful in treating cardiac disease. For better drug delivery, nano therapy is opening new avenues for cardiac research by targeting interleukin (IL), TNF and other proteins by proteome interactome analysis. Nanoparticles enable precise delivery to atherosclerotic plaques, inflammation areas, and damaged cardiac tissues. Advancements in nano therapeutic agents, such as drug-eluting stents and drug-loaded nanoparticles are transforming CVDs management. Plant-based treatments, containing phytochemicals from Botanical sources, have potential cardiovascular benefits. These phytochemicals can mitigate risk factors associated with CVDs. The integration of these strategies opens new avenues for personalized, effective, and minimally invasive cardiovascular care. Altogether, traditional drugs, phytochemicals along with nanoparticles can revolutionize the future cardiac health care by identifying their signaling pathway, mechanism and interactome analysis.

Abstract
In vivo imaging technologies have emerged as a powerful tool for both fundamental research and clinical practice. In particular, luminescence imaging in the tissue-transparent near-infrared (NIR, 700-1700 nm) region offers tremendous potential for visualizing biological architectures and pathophysiological events in living subjects with deep tissue penetration and high imaging contrast owing to the reduced light-tissue interactions of absorption, scattering, and autofluorescence. The distinctive quantum effects of nanocrystals have been harnessed to achieve exceptional photophysical properties, establishing them as a promising category of luminescent probes. In this comprehensive review, the interactions between light and biological tissues, as well as the advantages of NIR light for in vivo luminescence imaging, are initially elaborated. Subsequently, we focus on achieving deep tissue penetration and improved imaging contrast by optimizing the performance of nanocrystal fluorophores. The ingenious design strategies of NIR nanocrystal probes are discussed, along with their respective biomedical applications in versatile in vivo luminescence imaging modalities. Finally, thought-provoking reflections on the challenges and prospects for future clinical translation of nanocrystal-based in vivo luminescence imaging in the NIR region are wisely provided.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke (IS) is a prevalent form of stroke and a leading cause of mortality and disability. Recently, cell membrane-derived nanovehicles (CMNVs) derived from erythrocytes, thrombocytes, neutrophils, macrophages, neural stem cells, and cancer cells have shown great promise as drug delivery systems for IS treatment. By precisely controlling drug release rates and targeting specific sites in the brain, CMNVs enable the reduction in drug dosage and minimization of side effects, thus significantly enhancing therapeutic strategies and approaches for IS. While there are some reviews regarding the applications of CMNVs in the treatment of IS, there has been limited attention given to important aspects such as carrier construction, structural design, and functional modification. Therefore, this review aims to address these key issues in CMNVs preparation, structural composition, modification, and other relevant aspects, with a specific focus on targeted therapy for IS. Finally, the challenges and prospects in this field are discussed.

Abstract
It is a great challenge to effectively treat triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) due to lack of therapeutic targets and drug resistance of systemic chemotherapy. Rational design of nanomedicine with good hemocompatibility is urgently desirable for combination therapy of TNBC. Herein, an erythrocyte membrane-camouflaged fluorescent covalent organic framework (COF) loaded with an NO donor (hydroxyurea, Hu), glucose oxidase (GOx) and cytosine-phosphate-guanine oligonucleotides (CPG) (COF@HGC) was developed for imaging-guided starving/nitric oxide (NO)/immunization synergistic treatment of TNBC. The substances of HGC are easily co-loaded onto the COF due to the ordered pore structure and large surface area. And a folic acid-modified erythrocyte membrane (FEM) is coated on the surface of COF@HGC to improve targeted therapy and haemocompatibility. When COF@HGC@FEM is internalized into tumor cells, hemoglobin (Hb) on FEM and GOx loaded on the COF can trigger cascade reactions to kill tumor cells due to the simultaneous production of NO and exhaustion of glucose. Meanwhile, the COF with excellent fluorescence properties can be used as a self-reporter for bioimaging. Furthermore, the CPG can reprogram tumor-associated macrophages from tumor-supportive phenotype to anti-tumor phenotype and enhance immunotherapy. Through the "three-in-one" strategy, the biomimetic nanoplatform can effectively inhibit tumor growth and reprogram the tumor immunosuppression microenvironment in the TNBC mouse model.

Abstract
Ectopic mineralization refers to the deposition of mineralized complexes in the extracellular matrix of soft tissues. Calcific aortic valve disease, vascular calcification, gallstones, kidney stones, and abnormal mineralization in arthritis are common examples of ectopic mineralization. They are debilitating diseases and exhibit excess mortality, disability, and morbidity, which impose on patients with limited social or financial resources. Recent recognition that inflammation plays an important role in ectopic mineralization has attracted the attention of scientists from different research fields. In the present review, we summarize the origin of inflammation in ectopic mineralization and different channels whereby inflammation drives the initiation and progression of ectopic mineralization. The current knowledge of inflammatory milieu in pathological mineralization is reviewed, including how immune cells, pro-inflammatory mediators, and osteogenic signaling pathways induce the osteogenic transition of connective tissue cells, providing nucleating sites and assembly of aberrant minerals. Advances in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms involved in inflammatory-mediated ectopic mineralization enable novel strategies to be developed that may lead to the resolution of these enervating conditions.

Abstract
Introduction: Thrombogenesis, a major cause of implantable cardiovascular device failure, can be addressed through the use of biodegradable polymers modified with anticoagulating moieties. This study introduces a novel polyester urethane urea (PEUU) functionalized with various anti-platelet deposition molecules for enhanced antiplatelet performance in regenerative cardiovascular devices. Methods: PEUU, synthesized from poly-caprolactone, 1,4-diisocyanatobutane, and putrescine, was chemically oxidized to introduce carboxyl groups, creating PEUU-COOH. This polymer was functionalized in situ with polyethyleneimine, 4-arm polyethylene glycol, seleno-L-cystine, heparin sodium, and fondaparinux. Functionalization was confirmed using Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Bio-compatibility and hemocompatibility were validated through metabolic activity and hemolysis assays. The anti-thrombotic activity was assessed using platelet aggregation, lactate dehydrogenase activation assays, and scanning electron microscopy surface imaging. The whole-blood clotting time quantification assay was employed to evaluate anticoagulation properties. Results: Results demonstrated high biocompatibility and hemocompatibility, with the most potent anti-thrombotic activity observed on pegylated surfaces. However, seleno-L-cystine and fondaparinux exhibited no anti-platelet activity. Discussion: The findings highlight the importance of balancing various factors and addressing challenges associated with different approaches when developing innovative surface modifications for cardiovascular devices.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 242:124618.

Abstract
Rapid occlusion is the culprit leading to implantation failure of biological blood vessels. Although adenosine is a clinical-proven drug to overcome the problem, its short half-life and turbulent burst-release limit its direct application. Thus, a pH/temperature dual-responsive blood vessel possessed controllable long-term adenosine secretion was constructed based on acellular matrix via compact crosslinking by oxidized chondroitin sulfate (OCSA) and functionalized with apyrase and acid phosphatase. These enzymes, as adenosine micro-generators, controlled the adenosine release amount by "real-time-responding" to acidity and temperature of vascular inflammation sites. Additionally, the macrophage phenotype was switched from M1 to M2, and related factors expression proved that adenosine release was effectively regulated with the severity of inflammation. What's more, the ultra-structure for degradation resisting and endothelialization accelerating was also preserved by their "double-crosslinking". Therefore, this work suggested a new feasible strategy providing a bright future of long-term patency for transplanted blood vessels.

Abstract
The leading cause of death in the world, cardiovascular disease (CVD), remains a formidable condition for researchers, clinicians and patients alike. CVD comprises a broad collection of diseases spanning the heart, the vasculature and the blood that runs through and interconnects them. Limitations in CVD therapeutic and diagnostic landscapes have generated excitement for advances in nanomedicine, a field focused on improving patient outcomes through transformative therapies, imaging agents and ex vivo diagnostics. CVD nanomedicines are fundamentally shaped by their intended clinical application, including (1) cardiac or heart-related biomaterials, which can be functionally (for example, mechanically, immunologically, electrically) improved by incorporating nanomaterials; (2) the vasculature, involving systemically injected nanotherapeutics and imaging nanodiagnostics, nano-enabled biomaterials or tissue-nanoengineered solutions; and (3) improving the sensitivity and/or specificity of ex vivo diagnostic devices for patient samples. While immunotherapy has developed into a key pillar of oncology in the past dozen years, CVD immunotherapy and immunoimaging are recently emergent and likely to factor substantially in CVD management in the coming decade. The nanomaterials in CVD-related clinical trials and many promising preclinical strategies indicate that nanomedicine is on the cusp of greatly impacting patients with CVD. Here we review these recent advances, highlighting key clinical opportunities in the rapidly emerging field of CVD nanomedicine.

Abstract
Heart valve replacement has become an optimal choice for the treatment of severe heart valve disease. At present, most commercial bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are made from porcine pericardium or bovine pericardium treated with glutaraldehyde. Nevertheless, due to the toxicity of residual aldehyde groups left after glutaraldehyde cross-linking, these commercial BHVs exhibit poor biocompatibility, calcification, risk of coagulation and endothelialization difficulty, which greatly affects the durability of the BHVs and shortens their service life. In this work, based on a chlorogenic acid functional anti-inflammation, anti-coagulation and endothelialization strategy and dual-functional non-glutaraldehyde cross-linking reagent OX-CO, a kind of functional BHV material OX-CA-PP has been developed from OX-CO cross-linked porcine pericardium (OX-CO-PP) followed by the convenient modification of chlorogenic acid through a reactive oxygen species (ROS) sensitive borate ester bond. The functionalization of chlorogenic acid can reduce the risk of valve leaf thrombosis and promote endothelial cell proliferation, which is beneficial to the formation of a long-term interface with good blood compatibility. Meanwhile, such a ROS responsive behavior can trigger intelligent release of chlorogenic acid on-demand to achieve the inhibition of acute inflammation at the early stage of implantation. The in vivo and in vitro experimental results show that the functional BHV material OX-CA-PP exhibits superior anti-inflammation, improved anti-coagulation, minimal calcification and promoted proliferation of endothelial cells, showing that this non-glutaraldehyde functional strategy has great potential for the application of BHVs and providing a promising reference for other implanted biomaterials.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death around the world, a trend that will progressively grow over the next decade. Recently, with the advancement of nanotechnology, innovative nanoparticles (NPs) have been efficiently utilized in disease diagnosis and theranostic applications. In this review, we highlighted the benchmark summary of the recently synthesized NPs that are handy for imaging, diagnosis, and treatment of CVDs. NPs are the carrier of drug-delivery payloads actively reaching more areas of the heart and arteries, allowing them novel therapeutic agents for CVDs. Herein, due to the limited availability of literature, we only focused on NPs mechanism in the cardiovascular system and various treatment-based approaches that opens a new window for future research and versatile approach in the field of medical and clinical applications. Moreover, current challenges and limitations for the detection of CVDs has also discussed.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of death in China, with increasingly serious negative effects on people and society. Despite significant advances in preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases, such as atrial fibrillation/flutter and heart failure over the last few years, much more remains to be done. Therefore, developing innovative methods for identifying and managing cardiovascular disorders is critical. Nanomaterials provide multiple benefits in biomedicine, primarily better catalytic activity, drug loading, targeting, and imaging. Biomimetic materials and nanoparticles are specially combined to synthesize biomimetic nanoparticles that successfully reduce the nanoparticles' toxicity and immunogenicity while enhancing histocompatibility. Additionally, the biological targeting capability of nanoparticles facilitates the diagnosis and therapy of cardiovascular disease. Nowadays, nanomedicine still faces numerous challenges, which necessitates creating nanoparticles that are highly selective, toxic-free, and better clinically applicable. This study reviews the scientific accomplishments in this field over the past few years covering the classification, applications, and prospects of noble metal biomimetic nanozymes and biomimetic nanocarriers.

Abstract
Commercial glutaraldehyde (Glut) cross-linked bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) fabricated from the pericardium have become the most popular choice for treating heart valve diseases. Nevertheless, thrombosis, inflammation and calcification might lead to structural valve degeneration (SVD), which limited the durability of BHVs. Herein, to improve the biocompatibility of BHVs, we fabricated a poly-(2-methoxyethyl acrylate) (PMEA) coated porcine pericardium (PMEA-PP) through grafting PMEA to the porcine pericardium (PP) that was pre-treated with Glut and methacrylated polylysine. PMEA coating mitigated the side effects caused by aldehyde residues. It was shown that the PMEA coating reduced cytotoxicity and inflammation reactions and improved endothelialization potential, and its hydrophilic surface improved the anti-thrombotic properties of PPs. And the PMEA coating significantly reduced the calcification of PPs. This strategy promoted the endothelialization potential and improve the anti-thrombosis and anti-calcification properties of BHVs, and is expected to overcome the defects of commercial BHVs.

Abstract
AbstractWith the economy's globalization and the population's aging, cancer has become the leading cause of death in most countries. While imposing a considerable burden on society, the high morbidity and mortality rates have continuously prompted researchers to develop new oncology treatment options. Anti-tumor regimens have evolved from early single surgical treatment to combined (or not) chemoradiotherapy and then to the current stage of tumor immunotherapy. Tumor immunotherapy has undoubtedly pulled some patients back from the death. However, this strategy of activating or boosting the body's immune system hardly benefits most patients. It is limited by low bioavailability, low response rate and severe side effects. Thankfully, the rapid development of nanotechnology has broken through the bottleneck problem of anti-tumor immunotherapy. Multifunctional nanomaterials can not only kill tumors by combining anti-tumor drugs but also can be designed to enhance the body's immunity and thus achieve a multi-treatment effect. It is worth noting that the variety of nanomaterials, their modifiability, and the diversity of combinations allow them to shine in antitumor immunotherapy. In this paper, several nanobiotics commonly used in tumor immunotherapy at this stage are discussed, and they activate or enhance the body's immunity with their unique advantages. In conclusion, we reviewed recent advances in tumor immunotherapy based on nanomaterials, such as biological cell membrane modification, self-assembly, mesoporous, metal and hydrogels, to explore new directions and strategies for tumor immunotherapy.

Abstract
With the aging of the population in worldwide, valvular heart disease has become one of the most prominent life-threatening diseases in human health, and heart valve replacement surgery is one of the therapeutic methods for valvular heart disease. Currently, commercial bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) for clinical application are prepared with xenograft heart valves or pericardium crosslinked by glutaraldehyde. Due to the residual cell toxicity from glutaraldehyde, heterologous antigens, and immune response, there are still some drawbacks related to the limited lifespan of bioprosthetic heart valves, such as thrombosis, calcification, degeneration, and defectiveness of re-endothelialization. Therefore, the problems of calcification, defectiveness of re-endothelialization, and poor biocompatibility from the use of bioprosthetic heart valve need to be solved. In this study, hydrogel hybrid heart valves with improved anti-calcification and re-endothelialization were prepared by taking decellularized porcine heart valves as scaffolds following grafting with double bonds. Then, the anti-biofouling zwitterionic monomers 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were utilized to obtain a hydrogel-coated hybrid heart valve (PEGDA-MPC-DHVs@VEGF). The results showed that fewer platelets and thrombi were observed on the surface of the PEGDA-MPC-DHVs@VEGF. Additionally, the PEGDA-MPC-DHVs@VEGF exhibited excellent collagen stability, biocompatibility and re-endothelialization potential. Moreover, less calcification deposition and a lower immune response were observed in the PEGDA-MPC-DHVs@VEGF compared to the glutaraldehyde-crosslinked DHVs (Glu-DHVs) after subcutaneous implantation in rats for 30 days. These studies demonstrated that the strategy of zwitterionic hydrogels loaded with VEGF may be an effective approach to improving the biocompatibility, anti-calcification and re-endothelialization of bioprosthetic heart valves. A new and promising strategy of overcoming defects of bioprosthetic heart valves. The zwitterionic hydrogel with VEGF is utilized to improve anti-calcification and re-endothelialization properties of heart valves. The hybrid heart valves with a VEGF-loaded zwitterionic hydrogel coating exhibits excellent biocompatibility.

Abstract
Cardiovascular (CV) implants are still associated with thrombogenicity due to insufficient hemocompatibility. Endothelialization of their luminal surface is a promising strategy to increase their hemocompatibility. In this review, we provide a collection of research studies and review articles aiming to summarize the recent efforts on surface modifications of CV implants, including stents, grafts, valves, and ventricular assist devises. We focus in particular on the implementation of micrometer or nanoscale surface modifications, physical characteristics of known biomaterials (such as wetness and stiffness), and surface morphological features (such as gratings, fibers, pores, and pits). We also review how biomechanical signals originating from the endothelial cell for surface interaction can be directed by topography engineering approaches toward the survival of the endothelium and its long-term adaptation. Finally, we summarize the regulatory and economic challenges that may prevent clinical implementation of endothelialized CV implants.

Abstract
Advanced drug delivery micro- and nanosystems have been widely explored due to their appealing specificity/selectivity, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and low toxicity. They can be applied for the targeted delivery of pharmaceuticals, with the benefits of good biocompatibility/stability, non-immunogenicity, large surface area, high drug loading capacity, and low leakage of drugs. Cardiovascular diseases, as one of the primary mortalities cause worldwide with significant impacts on the quality of patients’ life, comprise a variety of heart and circulatory system pathologies, such as peripheral vascular diseases, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and coronary artery diseases. Designing novel micro- and nanosystems with suitable targeting properties and smart release behaviors can help circumvent crucial challenges of the tolerability, low stability, high toxicity, and possible side- and off-target effects of conventional drug delivery routes. To overcome different challenging issues, namely physiological barriers, low efficiency of drugs, and possible adverse side effects, various biomaterials-mediated drug delivery systems have been formulated with reduced toxicity, improved pharmacokinetics, high bioavailability, sustained release behavior, and enhanced therapeutic efficacy for targeted therapy of cardiovascular diseases. Despite the existing drug delivery systems encompassing a variety of biomaterials for treating cardiovascular diseases, the number of formulations currently approved for clinical use is limited due to the regulatory and experimental obstacles. Herein, the most recent advancements in drug delivery micro- and nanosystems designed from different biomaterials for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases are deliberated, with a focus on the important challenges and future perspectives.

Abstract
AbstractIn the last decade, the number of transcatheter heart valve replacement for severe heart valve disease has increased exponentially. Although the bioprosthetic artificial heart valve (BHV) has similar fluid dynamics performance to the original heart valve compared with mechanical heart valve so that there is no need to take long-term anticoagulant drugs to prevent thromboembolism, transcatheter BHV replacement are still at risk for thrombosis during the first few months according to the clinical data. However, the use of antithrombotic drugs can also increase the risk of bleeding. Therefore, it is particularly important to improve the anticoagulant properties for the BHV itself. In this work, a kind of non-glutaraldehyde cross-linked BHV material with excellent antithrombotic ability has been prepared from carboxylated oxazolidine treated porcine pericardium (consisting of collagen, elastin and glycoprotein) with the further graft of the anticoagulant heparin sodium via hydrophilic modified chitosan. Along with the similar mechanical properties and collagen stability comparable to the glutaraldehyde cross-linked porcine pericardium (PP), these functional non-glutaraldehyde cross-linked PPs exhibit better biocompatibility, promoted endothelial proliferation and superior anti-calcification ability. More importantly, excellent anticoagulant activity can be observed in the hematological experiments in vivo and in vitro. In summary, these excellent performances make these functional non-glutaraldehyde cross-linked PPs great potentialities in the BHV applications.

Abstract
Red Blood Cells (RBCs)-derived particles are an emerging group of novel drug delivery systems. The natural attributes of RBCs make them potential candidates for use as a drug carrier or nanoparticle camouflaging material as they are innately biocompatible. RBCs have been studied for multiple decades in drug delivery applications but their evolution in the clinical arena are considerably slower. They have been garnering attention for the unique capability of conserving their membrane proteins post fabrication that help them to stay non-immunogenic in the biological environment prolonging their circulation time and improving therapeutic efficiency. In this review, we discuss about the synthesis, significance, and various biomedical applications of the above-mentioned classes of engineered RBCs. This article is focused on the current state of clinical translation and the analysis of the hindrances associated with the transition from lab to clinic applications.

Abstract
Heart valves have extraordinary fatigue resistance which beat ≈3 billion times in a lifetime. Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) made from fixed heteroplasm that are incrementally used in heart valve replacement fail to sustain the expected durability due to thrombosis, poor endothelialization, inflammation, calcification, and especially mechanical damage induced biocompatibility change. No effective strategy has been reported to conserve the biological properties of BHV after long-term fatigue test. Here, a double-network tough hydrogel is introduced, which interpenetrate and anchor into the matrix of decellularized porcine pericardium (dCell-PP) to form robust and stable conformal coatings and reduce immunogenicity. The ionic crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) network mimics the glycocalyx on endothelium which improves antithrombosis and accelerates endothelialization; the chemical crosslinked hydrophilic polyacrylamide (PAAm) network further enhances antifouling properties and strengthens the shielding hydrogels and their interaction with dCell-PP. In vitro and rabbit ex vivo shunt assay demonstrate great hemocompatibility of polyacrylamide/HA hydrogel hybrid PP (P/H-PP). Cell experiments and rat subcutaneous implantation confirm satisfactory endothelialization, biocompatibility, and anticalcification properties. For hydrodynamic experiment, P/H-PP gains full mark at different flow conditions and sustains excellent biomechanical and biological properties after 200 000 000 cycles. P/H double-network hydrogel armoring dCell-PP is a promising progress to extend BHV durability for clinical implantation therapy.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a primary cause of death globally. A few classic and hybrid treatments exist to treat CVDs. However, they lack in both safety and effectiveness. Thus, innovative nanomaterials for disease diagnosis and treatment are urgently required. The tiny size of nanomaterials allows them to reach more areas of the heart and arteries, making them ideal for CVDs. Atherosclerosis causes arterial stenosis and reduced blood flow. The most common treatment is medication and surgery to stabilize the disease. Nanotechnologies are crucial in treating vascular disease. Nanomaterials may be able to deliver medications to lesion sites after being infused into the circulation. Newer point-of-care devices have also been considered together with nanomaterials. For example, this study will look at the use of nanomaterials in imaging, diagnosing, and treating CVDs.

Abstract
Recently, the incidence of chronic diabetic wounds increases continuously, and the existing clinical treatment is less effective. Thus, it is an urgent need to solve these problems for better clinical treatment effects. Herein, we prepared a brand-new tailored recombinant human collagen type III (rhCol III) and constructed a multifunctional microenvironment-responsive hydrogel carrier based on multifunctional antibacterial nanoparticles (PDA@Ag NPs) and our tailored rhCol III. The multifunctional smart hydrogel disintegrated quickly at the chronic diabetic wound sites and achieved the programed on-demand release of different therapeutic substances. The first released PDA@Ag NPs showed great antibacterial properties against S. aureus and E. coli. They could kill bacteria rapidly, and also showed antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects at the wound site. The subsequent release of our tailored rhCol III could promote the proliferation and migration of mouse fibroblasts and endothelial cells during the proliferation and remodeling process of wound healing. Relevant results showed that the multifunctional smart hydrogel could promote the expression levels of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), decrease the inflammatory response, accelerate the deposition of collagen and increase cell proliferation and angiogenesis, thereby speeding up the healing of infected chronic wounds. In a word, the hydrogel, which took into consideration the complex microenvironment at the wound site and multi-stage healing process, could achieve programmed and responsive release of different therapeutic substances to meet the treatment needs in different wound healing stages. More importantly, our work illustrated the great application potential of our brand-new rhCol III in promoting chronic wound repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Fabricating injectable hydrogel with multifunctions that matchs the highly ordered healing process of skin regeneration has greatly desired in treatment of chronic diabetic wounds. Herein, a pH/reactive oxygen species (ROS) dual responsive injectable glycopeptide hydrogel based on phenylboronic acid-grafted oxidized dextran and caffeic acid-grafted ε-polylysine was constructed, which exhibited inherent antibacterial and antioxidant capacities. The mangiferin (MF) with the ability to promote angiogenesis was encapsulated into pH-responsive micelles (MIC). Subsequently, diclofenac sodium (DS) with anti-inflammatory activities and MIC@MF were embedded into the hydrogel. The hydrogel possessed good biodegradability, stable rheological property and self-healing ability, and could realize the spatiotemporal delivery of DS and MF. The in vitro and in vivo data showed that the hydrogel was biocompatible with effective anti-infection, anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation at early stages, then further promoted angiogenesis and accelerated wound repairing. Collectively, this novel glycopeptide hydrogel provides a facile and effective strategy for chronic diabetic wound repairing.

Abstract
Humans have a limited postinjury regenerative ability. Therefore, cell-derived biomaterials have long been utilized for tissue repair. Cells with multipotent differentiation potential, such as stem cells, have been administered to patients for the treatment of various diseases. Researchers expected that these cells would mediate tissue repair and regeneration through their multipotency. However, increasing evidence has suggested that in most stem cell therapies, the paracrine effect but not cell differentiation or regeneration is the major driving force of tissue repair. Additionally, ethical and safety problems have limited the application of stem cell therapies. Therefore, nonliving cell-derived techniques such as extracellular vesicle (EV) therapy and cell membrane-based therapy to fulfil the unmet demand for tissue repair are important. Nonliving cell-derived biomaterials are safer and more controllable, and their efficacy is easier to enhance through bioengineering approaches. Here, we described the development and evolution from cell therapy to EV therapy and cell membrane-based therapy for tissue repair. Furthermore, the latest advances in nonliving cell-derived therapies empowered by advanced engineering techniques are emphatically reviewed, and their potential and challenges in the future are discussed.

[PMID: 34474888 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2021.112337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
An aging population and a rapid increase in the incidence of degenerative valve diseases have led to greater use of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs). The durability of glutaraldehyde cross-linked bioprostheses currently available for clinical use is poor due to calcification, coagulation, and degradation. Decellularization can partially reduce calcification by removal of xenogenic cells, but can also lead to thrombosis, which can be addressed by further surface modification. The natural sulfated polysaccharide ulvan possesses antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory properties, and can behave as a heparinoid to immobilize proteins through their heparin binding sites. VE-cadherin antibody and the Arg-Glu-Asp-Val (REDV) peptide can facilitate selective endothelial cell attachment, adhesion and proliferation. In this study, we functionalized decellularized porcine pericardium (DPP) with ulvan, REDV, and VE-cadherin antibody (U-R-VE). Ulvan was covalently modified to act as a protective coating and spacer for VE-cadherin antibody, and to immobilize REDV. In in vitro tests, we found that functionalization significantly and selectively promoted adhesion and growth of endothelial cells while reducing platelet adhesion, inflammation, and in vitro calcification of DPPs. In an in vivo subdermal implantation model, U-R-VE modified DPP exhibited greater endothelialization potential and biocompatibility compared with unmodified pericardium. Thus, U-R-VE modification provides a promising solution to the problem of preparing BHVs with enhanced endothelialization potential.

Abstract
Heart valve disease is prevalent throughout the world, and the number of heart valve replacements is expected to increase rapidly in the coming years. Transcatheter heart valve replacement (THVR) provides a safe and minimally invasive means for heart valve replacement in high-risk patients. The latest clinical data demonstrates that THVR is a practical solution for low-risk patients. Despite these promising results, there is no long-term (>20 years) durability data on transcatheter heart valves (THVs), raising concerns about material degeneration and long-term performance. This review presents a detailed account of the materials development for THVRs. It provides a brief overview of THVR, the native valve properties, the criteria for an ideal THV, and how these devices are tested. A comprehensive review of materials and their applications in THVR, including how these materials are fabricated, prepared, and assembled into THVs is presented, followed by a discussion of current and future THVR biomaterial trends. The field of THVR is proliferating, and this review serves as a guide for understanding the development of THVs from a materials science and engineering perspective.

A multi-in-one strategy with glucose-triggered long-term antithrombogenicity and sequentially enhanced endothelialization for biological valve leaflets. Biomaterials 2021; 275:120981.

Abstract
Bioprosthetic heart valves are commonly applied in heart valve replacement, while the effectiveness is limited by inflammation, calcification and especially thrombosis. Surface modification is expected to endow the biological valves with versatility. Herein, a multi-in-one strategy was established to modify biological valves with long-term antithrombogenicity and sequentially enhanced endothelialization triggered by glucose, in which the direct thrombin inhibitor rivaroxaban (RIVA)-loaded nanogels were embedded and the detachable polyethylene glycol (PEG) was grafted. These two anticoagulant strategies were connected by glucose oxidase (GOx), which catalyzed the oxidation of glucose to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and local acidic environment. The generated H2O2 stimulated H2O2-responsive nanogels release RIVA to obtain continuous antithrombogenicity. Meanwhile, PEG was attached to the surface via pH-sensitive bonds, which prevented thrombus formation by resisting the serum proteins and platelets adhesion at the initial stage of material/blood contact. Sequentially, PEG gradually peeled off under the local weak acidic environment, which ultimately resulted in the endothelialization enhancement. Within such multi-in-one strategy, the biological valve leaflets induced long-term anticoagulant performance, gradually enhanced endothelialization and improved tissue affinity, including anti-calcification and anti-inflammation, indicating the potential of the response sequence matching between materials and tissues after implantation, which might improve performance of biological heart valves.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its sequelae have long been the leading causes of death and disability in the developed world. Although mortality associated with CVD has been decreasing, due in large part to novel therapeutic options, the rate of decrease has flattened. Thus, there is a great need to investigate alternate therapeutic strategies that can increase efficacy while decreasing adverse effects. Nanomaterials have been widely investigated and have emerged as promising tools for both therapeutic and diagnostic purposes in oncology; however, the potential of nanomaterials has not been extensively explored for cardiovascular medicine. In this review, we focus on recent developments in the field of nanomedicines targeted for CVDs, with a special emphasis on cell membrane-coated nanoparticles (NPs) and their applications.

Abstract
Heart valve replacement is an effective therapy for patients with moderate to severe valvular stenosis or regurgitation. Most bioprosthetic heart valves applied clinically are based on cross-linking with glutaraldehyde (GLUT), but they have some drawbacks like high cytotoxicity, severe calcification, and poor hemocompatibility. In this study, we focused on enhancing the properties of bioprosthetic heart valves by cross-linking with 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (DHBA). The experiment results revealed that compared with GLUT cross-linked porcine pericardium (PP), the relative amount of platelets absorbed on the surface of DHBA cross-linked PP decreased from 0.294 ± 0.034 to 0.176 ± 0.028, and the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) increased from 9.9 ± 0.1 to 15.2 ± 0.1 s, indicating improved hemocompatibility. Moreover, anticalcification performance and cytocompatibility were greatly enhanced by DHBA cross-linking. In conclusion, the properties of bioprosthetic valves could be effectively improved by processing valves with a DHBA-based cross-linking method.
