Abstract
The essential functions of cartilage, such as shock absorption and resilience, are hindered by its limited regenerative capacity. Although current therapies alleviate symptoms, novel strategies for cartilage regeneration are desperately needed. Recent developments in three-dimensional (3D) constructs aim to address this challenge by mimicking the intrinsic characteristics of native cartilage using biocompatible materials, with a significant emphasis on both functionality and stability. Through fabrication methods such as 3D printing and electrospinning, researchers are making progress in cartilage regeneration; nevertheless, it is still very difficult to translate these advances into clinical practice. The review emphasizes the importance of integrating various fabrication techniques to create stable 3D constructs. Meticulous design and material selection are required to achieve seamless cartilage integration and durability. The review outlines the need to address these challenges and focuses on the latest developments in the production of hybrid 3D constructs based on biodegradable and biocompatible polymers. Furthermore, the review acknowledges the limitations of current research and provides perspectives on potential avenues for effectively regenerating cartilage defects in the future.

Abstract
Repairing critical size bone defects (CSBD) is a major clinical challenge and requires effective intervention by biomaterial scaffolds. Inspired by the fact that the cartilaginous template-based endochondral ossification (ECO) process is crucial to bone healing and development, developing biomimetic biomaterials to promote ECO is recognized as a promising approach for repairing CSBD. With the unique highly hydrated 3D polymeric network, hydrogels can be designed to closely emulate the physiochemical properties of cartilage matrix to facilitate ECO. In this review, the various preparation methods of hydrogels possessing the specific physiochemical properties required for promoting ECO are introduced. The materiobiological impacts of the physicochemical properties of hydrogels, such as mechanical properties, topographical structures and chemical compositions on ECO, and the associated molecular mechanisms related to the BMP, Wnt, TGF-β, HIF-1α, FGF, and RhoA signaling pathways are further summarized. This review provides a detailed coverage on the materiobiological insights required for the design and preparation of hydrogel-based biomaterials to facilitate bone regeneration.

Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 125:111174. [PMID: 37951194 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.111174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2023] [Revised: 09/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 11/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Generalized vitiligo (GV) is an autoimmune disease characterized by the progressive loss of melanocytes. OBJECTIVES Current study was undertaken to assess in-vitro therapeutic potential of Harmine and Kaempferol for GV. METHODS Calcium, calcineurin, NFATC1 levels, cell proliferation were assessed by various kits and ORAI1, PEIZO1, Calcineurin, GSK3B, DYRK1A transcripts and IFN-γ,IL-10,TGF-β protein levels were assessed by qPCR and ELISA in blood and skin biopsy samples from Tregs of 52 patients and 50 controls. RESULTS Harmine and Kaempferol treatment enhances Treg suppressive capacity, NFATs and FOXP3 expression in blood and skin Tregs of GV patients (p < 0.05). Furthermore, Harmine and Kaempferol treatment in Tregs increased calcineurin and NFATC1 activity and decreased DYRK1A transcripts in blood and skin Tregs of GV patients(p < 0.05). In-silico analysis revealed that Harmine and Kaempferol might boost Treg suppressive capacity by increasing calcineurin dephosphorylation activity leading to increase NFATs activation and also increase nuclear retention of NFATs by inhibiting DYRK1a phosphorylation activity. Moreover, calcineurin and NFATC1 activity in Tregs were positively correlated with Treg suppressive capacity, NFATC1 and FOXP3 expression (p < 0.05), whereas, DYRK1A transcripts were negatively correlated with Treg suppressive capacity, NFATC1 and FOXP3 expression (p < 0.05). These compounds significantly increased melanocytes' survival and proliferation in Treg:CD4+/CD8+:SK-Mel-28 cell line co-culture system from GV patients (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS For the first time the study suggests that Harmine and Kaempferol treated Tregs could control the CD8+ and CD4+T-cells' proliferation and IFN-γ production, leading to melanocytes' survival and proliferation. These compounds may serve as novel Treg-based therapeutics for GV; however, in vivo studies are warranted to assess the safety and efficacy of these compounds.

Abstract
In recent years, bone regeneration has emerged as a remarkable field that offers promising guidance for treating bone-related diseases, such as bone defects, bone infections, and osteosarcoma. Among various bone regeneration approaches, the metal ion-based strategy has surfaced as a prospective candidate approach owing to the extensive regulatory role of metal ions in bone metabolism and the diversity of corresponding delivery strategies. Various metal ions can promote bone regeneration through three primary strategies: balancing the effects of osteoblasts and osteoclasts, regulating the immune microenvironment, and promoting bone angiogenesis. In the meantime, the complex molecular mechanisms behind these strategies are being consistently explored. Moreover, the accelerated development of biomaterials broadens the prospect of metal ions applied to bone regeneration. This review highlights the potential of metal ions for bone regeneration and their underlying mechanisms. We propose that future investigations focus on refining the clinical utilization of metal ions using both mechanistic inquiry and materials engineering to bolster the clinical effectiveness of metal ion-based approaches for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Limitations associated with conventional bone substitutes such as autografts, increasing demand for bone grafts, and growing elderly population worldwide necessitate development of unique materials as bone graft substitutes. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) would ensure therapy advancement, efficiency, and cost-effective treatment modalities of bone defects. One way of engineering bone tissue scaffolds by mimicking natural bone tissue composed of organic and inorganic phases is to utilize polysaccharide-bioceramic hybrid composites. Polysaccharides are abundant in nature, and present in human body. Biominerals, like hydroxyapatite are present in natural bone and some of them possess osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. Ion doped bioceramics could substitute protein-based biosignal molecules to achieve osteogenesis, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, and stress shielding. This review is a systemic summary on properties, advantages, and limitations of polysaccharide-bioceramic/ion doped bioceramic composites along with their recent advancements in BTE.

Abstract
Bone diseases including bone defects, bone infections, osteoarthritis, and bone tumors seriously affect life quality of the patient and bring serious economic burdens to social health management, for which the current clinical treatments bear dissatisfactory therapeutic effects. Biomaterial-based strategies have been widely applied in the treatment of orthopedic diseases but are still plagued by deficient bioreactivity. With the development of nanotechnology, layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with adjustable metal ion composition and alterable interlayer structure possessing charming physicochemical characteristics, versatile bioactive properties, and excellent drug loading and delivery capabilities arise widespread attention and have achieved considerable achievements for bone disease treatment in the last decade. However, to the authors' best knowledge, no review has comprehensively summarized the advances of LDHs in treating bone disease so far. Herein, the advantages of LDHs for orthopedic disorders treatment are outlined and the corresponding state-of-the-art achievements are summarized for the first time. The potential of LDHs-based nanocomposites for extended therapeutics for bone diseases is highlighted and perspectives for LDHs-based scaffold design are proposed for facilitated clinical translation.

Abstract
As hypoxia plays a significant role in the formation and maintenance of cartilage tissue, aiming to develop native hypoxia-mimicking tissue engineering scaffolds is an efficient method to treat articular cartilage (AC) defects. Cobalt (Co) is documented for its hypoxic-inducing effects in vitro by stabilizing the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), a chief regulator of stem cell fate. Considering this, we developed a novel three-dimensional (3D) bioprintable hypoxia-mimicking nano bioink wherein cobalt nanowires (Co NWs) were incorporated into the poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel system as a hypoxia-inducing agent and encapsulated with umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UMSCs). In the current study, we investigated the impact of Co NWs on the chondrogenic differentiation of UMSCs in the PEGDA hydrogel system. Herein, the hypoxia-mimicking nano bioink (PEGDA+Co NW) was rheologically optimized to bioprint geometrically stable cartilaginous constructs. The bioprinted 3D constructs were evaluated for their physicochemical characterization, swelling-degradation behavior, mechanical properties, cell proliferation, and the expression of chondrogenic markers by histological, immunofluorescence, and reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) methods. The results disclosed that, compared to the control (PEGDA) group, the hypoxia-mimicking nano bioink (PEGDA+Co NW) group outperformed in print fidelity and mechanical properties. Furthermore, live/dead staining, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) content, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) content demonstrated that adding low amounts of Co NWs (<20 ppm) into PEGDA hydrogel system supported UMSC adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Histological and immunofluorescence staining of the PEGDA+Co NW bioprinted structures revealed the production of type 2 collagen (COL2) and sulfated GAGs, rendering it a feasible option for cartilage repair. It was further corroborated by a significant upregulation of the hypoxia-mediated chondrogenic and downregulation of the hypertrophic/osteogenic marker expression. In conclusion, the hypoxia-mimicking hydrogel system, including PEGDA and Co2+ ions, synergistically directs the UMSCs toward the chondrocyte lineage without using expensive growth factors and provides an alternative strategy for translational applications in the cartilage tissue engineering field.

Abstract
Integrin-mediated osteoblast adhesion to adsorbed extracellular ligands on orthopedic implants is crucial for the subsequent osteoblast behaviors and ultimate osseointegration. Considerable research efforts have focused on the development of implant surfaces that promote the adsorption of extracellular ligands, but ignored the fact that integrin binding to ligands requires divalent cations (such as Mn2+). Here, three kinds of Mn-doped nanowire-structured TiO2 coatings with 1.9, 3.9, and 8.8 wt% dopant contents (Mn1-, Mn2-, and Mn3-TiO2) were synthesized on Ti implants to enhance integrin-mediated osteoblastic responses. The Mg-doped and undoped TiO2 nanocoatings served as the control. Mn element was not only successfully incorporated into the TiO2 matrix, but also formed an oxygen-deficient Mn oxide on the nanowire surface. Although the adsorbed fibronectin (Fn) amount on Mn-doped nanocoatings and its unfolded status were slightly attenuated with increasing Mn amount, the interaction between the coating extract and Fn demonstrated a Mn2+-induced unfolding of Fn with the exposure of the RGD motif. Compared to the Mn1-, Mn2- and Mg-doped TiO2 nanocoatings, the Mn3-TiO2 nanocoating significantly upregulated the expression of integrin α5β1 probably through increasing the ligand-binding affinity of the integrin rather than integrin binding sites in Fn. Consistent with the activation trend of integrin α5β1, the Mn3-TiO2 nanocoating enhanced cell adhesion with the long stretched structure of actin fibers and extensive formation of vinculin focal adhesion spots and upregulated the levels of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin activities. Therefore, Mn supplementation of orthopedic implants may be a promising way to improve osteogenesis at the implant surface.

Abstract
Osteochondral tissue regeneration is quite difficult to achieve due to the complexity of its organization. In the design of these complex multilayer structures, a fabrication method, 3D printing, started to be employed, especially by using extrusion, stereolithography and inkjet printing approaches. In this paper, the designs are discussed including biphasic, triphasic, and gradient structures which aim to mimic the cartilage and the calcified cartilage and the whole osteochondral tissue closely. In the first section of the review paper, 3D printing of hydrogels including gelatin methacryloyl (GelMa), alginate, and polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) are discussed. However, their physical and biological properties need to be augmented, and this generally is achieved by blending the hydrogel with other, more durable, less hydrophilic, polymers. These scaffolds are very suitable to carry growth factors, such as TGF-β1, to further stimulate chondrogenesis. The bone layer is mimicked by printing calcium phosphates (CaPs) or bioactive glasses together with the hydrogels or as a component of another polymer layer. The current research findings indicate that polyester (i.e. polycaprolactone (PCL), polylactic acid (PLA) and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)) reinforced hydrogels may more successfully mimic the complex structure of osteochondral tissue. Moreover, more recent printing methods such as melt electrowriting (MEW), are being used to integrate polyester fibers to enhance the mechanical properties of hydrogels. Additionally, polyester scaffolds that are 3D printed without hydrogels are discussed after the hydrogel-based scaffolds. In this review paper, the relevant studies are analyzed and discussed, and future work is recommended with support of tables of designed scaffolds. The outcome of the survey of the field is that 3D printing has significant potential to contribute to osteochondral tissue repair.

Abstract
The goal of the current study is to develop an extracellular matrix bioink that could mimic the biochemical components present in natural blood vessels. Here, we have used an innovative approach to recycle the discarded varicose vein for isolation of endothelial cells and decellularization of the same sample to formulate the decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) bioink. The shift towards dECM bioink observed as varicose vein dECM provides the tissue-specific biochemical factors that will enhance the regeneration capability. Interestingly, the encapsulated umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells expressed the markers of vascular smooth muscle cells because of the cues present in the vein dECM. Further, in vitro immunological investigation of dECM revealed a predominant M2 polarization which could further aid in tissue remodeling. A novel approach was used to fabricate vascular construct using 3D bioprinting without secondary support. The outcomes suggest that this could be a potential approach for patient- and tissue-specific blood vessel regeneration.
