Human mesenchymal stromal cell adhesion and expansion on fluoropolymer surfaces modified with oxygen and nitrogen-rich plasma polymers. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2024; 234:113740. [PMID: 38199188 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2023.113740] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 12/12/2023] [Accepted: 12/28/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024]
Abstract
Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) vessels are of significant interest for therapeutic cell biomanufacturing applications due to their chemical inertness, hydrophobic surface, and high oxygen permeability. However, these properties also limit the adhesion and survival of anchorage-dependent cells. Here, we develop novel plasma polymer coatings to modify FEP surfaces, enhancing the adhesion and expansion of human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs). Similar to commercially available tissue culture polystyrene vessels, oxygen-rich or nitrogen-rich surface chemistries can be achieved using this approach. While steam sterilization increased the roughness of the coatings and altered the surface chemistry, the overall wettability and oxygen or nitrogen-rich nature of the coatings were maintained. In the absence of proteins during initial cell attachment, cells adhered to surfaces even in the presence of chelators, whereas adhesion was abrogated with chelator in a protein-containing medium, suggesting that integrin-mediated adhesion predominates over physicochemical tethering in normal protein-containing cell seeding conditions. Albumin adsorption was more elevated on nitrogen-rich coatings compared to the oxygen-rich coatings, which was correlated with a higher extent of hMSC expansion after 3 days. Both the oxygen and nitrogen-rich coatings significantly improved hMSC adhesion and expansion compared to untreated FEP. FEP surfaces with nitrogen-rich coatings were practically equivalent to commercially available standard tissue culture-treated polystyrene surfaces in terms of hMSC yields. Plasma polymer coatings show significant promise in expanding the potential usage of FEP-based culture vessels for cell therapy applications.

Abstract
The increasing research and rapid developments in the field of exosomes provide insights into their role and significance in human health. Exosomes derived from various sources, such as mesenchymal stem cells, cardiac cells, and tumor cells, to name a few, can be potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of diseases and could also serve as biomarkers for the early detection of diseases. Cellular components of exosomes, several proteins, lipids, and miRNAs hold promise as novel biomarkers for the detection of various diseases. The structure of exosomes enables them as drug delivery vehicles. Since exosomes exhibit potential therapeutic applications, their efficient isolation from complex biological/clinical samples and precise real-time analysis becomes significant. With the advent of microfluidics, nano-biosensors are being designed to capture exosomes efficiently and rapidly. Herein, we have summarized the history, biogenesis, characteristics, functions, and applications of exosomes, along with the isolation, detection, and quantification techniques. The implications of surface modifications to enhance specificity have been outlined. The review also sheds light on the engineered nanoplatforms being developed for exosome detection and capture.

Abstract
The conventional method of applying local medications for treating wound infections is often ineffective because of the dilution of drugs by the excess wound exudate. In addition, there have been insufficient studies investigating the adhesion between drug-loaded nanomaterials and cells or tissue. To address this intractable problem, berberine-silk fibroin microspheres (Ber@MPs) with an extracellular matrix-anchoring function were developed in this study. The microspheres were prepared from silk fibroin using the polyethylene glycol emulsion precipitation method. Subsequently, berberine was loaded onto the microspheres. Our results revealed that Ber@MPs firmly anchored to cells, continuously releasing berberine in the microenvironment. Moreover, both Ber@MPs and Ber@MPs-cell complexes exerted a strong and long-lasting antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis in the microenvironment, despite the large amount of wound exudate. In addition, Ber@MPs effectively resisted the inflammatory response induced by lipopolysaccharides and accelerated the migration of fibroblasts and neovascularization of endothelial cells cultured in inflammation-induced media. Finally, the in vivo experiments confirmed that the Ber@MP spray accelerated the healing of infected wounds via its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. Therefore, this study provides a novel strategy for treating infected wounds in the presence of excess exudate.

Abstract
Cellulose nanofibrils (CNFs) are multiscale hydrophilic biocompatible polysaccharide materials derived from wood and plants. TEMPO-mediated oxidation of CNFs (TO-CNF) turns some of the primary hydroxyl groups to carboxylate and aldehyde groups. Unlike carboxylic functional groups, there is little or no information about the biological role of the aldehyde groups on the surface of wood-based CNFs. In this work, we replaced the aldehyde groups in the TO-CNF samples with carboxyl groups by another oxidation treatment (TO-O-CNF) or with primary alcohols with terminal hydroxyl groups by a reduction reaction (TO-R-CNF). Rat mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow were seeded on polystyrene tissue culture plates (TCP) coated with CNFs with and without aldehyde groups. TCP and TCP coated with bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) were used as control groups. Protein adsorption measurements demonstrated that more proteins were adsorbed from cell culture media on all CNF surfaces compared to BNC. Live/dead and lactate dehydrogenase assays confirmed that all nanocellulose biomaterials supported excellent cell viability. Interestingly, TO-R-CNF samples, which have no aldehyde groups, showed better cell spreading than BNC and comparable results to TCP. Unlike TO-O-CNF surfaces, which have no aldehyde groups either, TO-R-CNF stimulated cells, in osteogenic medium, to have higher alkaline phosphatase activity and to form more biomineralization than TCP and TO-CNF groups. These findings indicate that the presence of aldehyde groups (280 ± 14 μmol/g) on the surface of TEMPO-oxidized CNFs might have little or no effect on attachment, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of MSCs.

Abstract
Heart valve leaflets have a complex trilayered structure with layer-specific orientations, anisotropic tensile properties, and elastomeric characteristics that are difficult to mimic collectively. Previously, trilayer leaflet substrates intended for heart valve tissue engineering were developed with nonelastomeric biomaterials that cannot deliver native-like mechanical properties. In this study, by electrospinning polycaprolactone (PCL) polymer and poly(l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLCL) copolymer, we created elastomeric trilayer PCL/PLCL leaflet substrates with native-like tensile, flexural, and anisotropic properties and compared them with trilayer PCL leaflet substrates (as control) to find their effectiveness in heart valve leaflet tissue engineering. These substrates were seeded with porcine valvular interstitial cells (PVICs) and cultured for 1 month in static conditions to produce cell-cultured constructs. The PCL/PLCL substrates had lower crystallinity and hydrophobicity but higher anisotropy and flexibility than PCL leaflet substrates. These attributes contributed to more significant cell proliferation, infiltration, extracellular matrix production, and superior gene expression in the PCL/PLCL cell-cultured constructs than in the PCL cell-cultured constructs. Further, the PCL/PLCL constructs showed better resistance to calcification than PCL constructs. Trilayer PCL/PLCL leaflet substrates with native-like mechanical and flexural properties could significantly improve heart valve tissue engineering.

Abstract
A quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) analysis was used to investigate fetal bovine serum (FBS) protein preadsorption on a hydroxyapatite (HAp) surface and the subsequent adhesion process of fibroblasts as compared with the case of oxidized poly(styrene) (PSox). The results showed that the preadsorption of FBS proteins on HAp promoted the subsequent initial cell adhesion ability. Moreover, the measured frequency (Δf) and dissipation shift (ΔD) curves, ΔD-Δf plots and viscoelastic analysis were used to study the initial cell adhesion process in real time. It was suggested that FBS-HAp showed sensitive changes in mass and viscoelasticity as compared with FBS-PSox, which realized the in situ reflection of the cell adhesion state, and the interfacial reactions between the cells and FBS-HAp surfaces such as dehydration and binding occurred to promote the initial cell adhesion and spreading. The viscoelastic analysis of the interface layer showed that the adhered cells on FBS-HAp could secrete some viscous substances such as extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins at the interfaces to provide good adhesion behaviors, and the Voigt-based viscoelastic model could clearly reveal the cellular interfacial viscoelasticity depending on the substrate surface. In addition, the morphology of cells was observed by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM), and it was found that the pseudopodia were more uniformly stretched on FBS-HAp than on FBS-PSox. Furthermore, the state of the interfacial protein layer was analyzed by localized Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and fluorescence microscopy (FLM), and it was indicated that the type of substrate affects the formation state of ECM proteins, resulting in changes in cell adhesion properties and morphology. The abundant formation of connective proteins (i.e., collagen type I) on FBS-HAp promoted subsequent pseudopodia formation and cell spreading. Therefore, the initial adhesion properties of fibroblasts on the FBS-HAp surface were systematically studied, which is of great importance for understanding the interfacial interaction between biomaterials and cells, and has great application value in biomedical fields.

Abstract
For tissue engineering applications, cell adhesion and proliferation are crucial factors, and blending polymers is one of the most effective ways to create a biocompatible scaffold with desired properties. In order to create new potential porous, biodegradable scaffolds using salt leaching technique, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) were blended in different ratios. SEM, BET, FTIR, and water contact angle measurements were used to analyze the scaffolds' porous surface, surface area, and roughness, chemical interaction, and hydrophilicity. Additionally, a hemolysis assay revealed that the mixtures were hemocompatible and had no impact on red blood cells. Different cells- Vero, Hela and MDBK cell lines cultured on the porous mats of these biopolymeric scaffolds exhibited significant increase in cell viability and attachment over time. The overall finding was that blended scaffolds exhibited reduced crystallinity, diverse porosity, higher surface area and hydrophilicity, and better cell viability, proliferation and adhesion. Our findings imply that a blended scaffold could be more suitable for use in tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Direct neuronal reprogramming of somatic cells into induced neurons (iNs) has been recently established as a promising approach to generating neuron cells. Previous studies have reported that the biophysical cues of the in vitro microenvironment are potent modulators in the cell fate decision; thus, the present study explores the effects of a customized pattern (named colloidal self-assembled patterns, cSAPs) on iN generation from human fibroblasts using small molecules. The result revealed that the cSAP, composed of binary particles in a hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) geometry, is capable of improving neuronal reprogramming efficiency and steering the ratio of the iN subtypes. Cells exhibited distinct cell morphology, upregulated cell adhesion markers (i.e., SDC1 and ITGAV), enriched signaling pathways (i.e., Hippo and Wnt), and chromatin remodeling on the cSAP compared to those on the control substrates. The result also showed that the iN subtype specification on cSAP was surface-dependent; therefore, the defined physicochemical cue from each cSAP is exclusive. Our findings show that direct cell reprogramming can be manipulated through specific biophysical cues on the artificial matrix, which is significant in cell transdifferentiation and lineage conversion.

Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) and citric acid (Cit)-coordinated HA (Cit/HA) nanoparticle films with different nanospaces were used to examine the nanospacial effect on the protein adsorption behavior and initial osteoblast-like cell adhesion ability through the premise of the stability and ionic dissociation characteristics of the films in biological solution. In particular, the Cit/HA nanoparticle film with a nanospace of 4.2 nm could realize massive and stereoscopic adsorption of proteins due to its larger specific surface area and smaller nanospace as compared with the case of the HA nanoparticle film. It was also found that the α-helix and (β-sheet + β-turn) component ratios of the adsorbed fetal bovine serum proteins on the Cit/HA nanoparticle films increased as compared with the case of the HA nanoparticle film through the secondary structure analysis of the adsorbed proteins, which contributed to the good initial cell culture properties on the film surfaces. Therefore, we successfully realized the control of protein adsorption states using different nanospacial HA and Cit/HA nanoparticle films to achieve excellent initial cell culture properties, which would provide new insights into the creation of novel cell culture substrate surfaces in the regenerative medicine fields.

Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulations were employed to investigate the adsorption behavior of a variety of amino-acid side-chain analogs (SCAs) and a β-hairpin (HP7) peptide on a series of liquid-like self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with terminal functional groups of -OH, -OCH3, -CH3, and -CF3. The relationships between the adsorption free energy of the SCAs and the interfacial properties of water on the SAMs were examined to determine the acute predictors of protein adsorption on the SAM surfaces. The structural changes of HP7 on the SAM surfaces were also investigated to understand the relationship between the surface nature and protein denaturation. It was found that the adsorption free energy of the SCAs was linearly related to the surface hydrophobicity, which was computed as the free energy of cavity formation near the SAM-water interfaces. In addition, the hydrophobic -CH3 and -CF3 SAMs produced substantial conformational changes in HP7 because of the strong hydrophobic attractions to the nonpolar side chains. The hydrophilic surface terminated by -OH also promoted structural changes in HP7 resulting from the formation of hydrogen bonds between the hydrophilic tail and HP7. Consequently, the moderate amphiphilic surface terminated by -OCH3 avoided the denaturation of HP7 most efficiently, thus improving the biocompatibility of the surface. In conclusion, these results provide a deep understanding of protein adsorption for a wide range of polymeric surfaces, and they can potentially aid the design of appropriate biocompatible coatings for medical applications.

Abstract
Decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) deposited by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has emerged as a promising substrate for improved expansion of MSCs. To date, essentially all studies that have produced dECM for MSC expansion have done so on tissue culture plastic or glass. However, substrate surface chemistry has a profound impact on the adsorption of proteins that mediate cell-material interactions, and different surface chemistries can cause changes in cell behavior, ECM deposition, and the in vivo response to a material. This study tested the hypothesis that substrate surface chemistry impacts the deposition of ECM and its subsequent bioactivity. This hypothesis was tested by producing glass surfaces with various surface chemistries (amine, carboxylic acid, propyl, and octyl groups) using silane chemistry. ECM was deposited by an immortalized MSC line, decellularized, and characterized through SDS-PAGE and immunofluorescence microscopy. No significant difference was observed in dECM composition or microarchitecture on the different surfaces. The decellularized surfaces were seeded with primary MSCs and their proliferation and differentiation were assessed. The presence of dECM improved the proliferation of primary MSCs by ~100% in comparison to surface chemistry controls. Additionally, the adipogenesis increased by 50–90% on all dECM surfaces in comparison to surface chemistry controls, and the osteogenesis increased by ~50% on the octyl-modified surfaces when dECM was present. However, no statistically significant differences were observed within the set of dECM surfaces or control surfaces. These results support the null hypothesis, meaning surface chemistry (over the range tested in this work) is not a key regulator of the composition or bioactivity of MSC-derived dECM. These results are significant because they provide an important insight into regenerative engineering technologies. Specifically, the utilization of dECM in stem cell manufacturing and tissue engineering applications would require the dECM to be produced on a wide variety of substrates. This work indicates that it can be produced on materials with a range of surface chemistries without undesired changes in the bioactivity of the dECM.

Abstract
Preparing a micropatterned elastomer film with characteristics that can simulate the mechanical properties, anisotropy, and electroactivity of natural myocardial tissues is crucial in cardiac tissue engineering after myocardial infarction (MI). Therefore, in this study, we developed several elastomeric films with a surface micropattern based on poly (glycerol sebacate) (PGS) and graphene (Gr). These films have sufficient mechanical strength (0.6 ± 0.1-3.2 ± 0.08 MPa) to withstand heartbeats, and the micropatterned structure also satisfies the natural myocardium anisotropy in the transverse and vertical. Moreover, Gr makes these films conductive (up to 5.80 × 10-7 S/m), which is necessary for the conduction of electrical signals between cardiomyocytes and the cardiac tissue. Furthermore, they have good cytocompatibility and can promote cell proliferation in H9c2 rat cardiomyocyte cell lines. In vivo test results indicate that these films have good biocompatibility. Notably, a film with 1 wt% Gr content (PGS-Gr1) significantly affects the recovery of myocardial function in rats after MI. This film effectively decreased the infarct size and degree of myocardial fibrosis and reduced collagen deposition. Echocardiographic evaluation showed that after treatment with this film, the left ventricular internal dimension in systole and left ventricular internal dimension in diastole of rats exhibited a significant downward trend, whereas the fractional shortening and ejection fraction were significantly increased compared with the control group. These data indicate that this electroactive micropatterned anisotropic elastomer film can be applied in cardiac tissue engineering.

Abstract
Monitoring and tracking infection is required in order to reduce the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), induced by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). To achieve this goal, the development and deployment of quick, accurate, and sensitive diagnostic methods are necessary. The determination of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is performed by biosensing devices, which vary according to detection methods and the biomarkers which are inducing/providing an analytical signal. RNA hybridisation, antigen-antibody affinity interaction, and a variety of other biological reactions are commonly used to generate analytical signals that can be precisely detected using electrochemical, electrochemiluminescence, optical, and other methodologies and transducers. Electrochemical biosensors, in particular, correspond to the current trend of bioanalytical process acceleration and simplification. Immunosensors are based on the determination of antigen-antibody interaction, which on some occasions can be determined in a label-free mode with sufficient sensitivity.

Abstract
Melanoidins are classified as hazardous colouring and polluting biopolymers, which are generated in very large amounts in molasses-based distillery effluent. In this study, melanoidin was removed through adsorption using amine surface-modified Phyllanthus emblica leaf powder (PELP) as a low-cost natural adsorbent. The amine-modified adsorbents were prepared by forming self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The pzc of melanoidin and anime-modified PELP were found to be 6.9 and 3.8, respectively. RSM-CCD was used to optimize the environmental conditions considering adsorbent doses (0.2-2 % w/v), pH (3-11) and temperature (25-55 °C). A complete decolourization of melanoidin (98.50 ± 1 %) was observed at the optimized conditions (44.0 °C, pH = 5.93 and dose = 1.34 % w/v) along with 93.4 ± 0.2 % of COD reduction. The surface modification enhanced the maximum adsorption capacity to 616.2 mg g-1 i.e. 2.5 folds. The modified adsorbent also resulted in colour removal and COD reduction as 91 ± 3 and 84 ± 2 %, respectively from a real spentwash sample.

Abstract
This review summarizes the results reported on the production of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) materials derived from fish wastes (i.e., heads, bones, skins, and viscera), known as fish discards, and offers an in-depth discussion on their promising potential for various applications in many fields, especially the biomedical one. Thus, considerable scientific and technological efforts were recently focused on the capability of these sustainable materials to be transformed into economically attractive and highly valuable by-products. As a consequence of using these wastes, plenty of beneficial social effects, with both economic and environmental impact, will arise. In the biomedical field, there is a strong and continuous interest for the development of innovative solutions for healthcare improvement using alternative materials of biogenic origin. Thus, the orthopedic field has witnessed a significant development due to an increased demand for a large variety of implants, grafts, and/or scaffolds. This is mainly due to the increase of life expectancy and higher frequency of bone-associated injuries and diseases. As a consequence, the domain of bone-tissue engineering has expanded to be able to address a plethora of bone-related traumas and to deliver a viable and efficient substitute to allografts or autografts by combining bioactive materials and cells for bone-tissue ingrowth. Among biomaterials, calcium phosphate (CaP)-based bio-ceramics are widely used in medicine, in particular in orthopedics and dentistry, due to their excellent bioactive, osteoconductive, and osteointegrative characteristics. Recently, BCP materials (synthetic or natural), a class of CaP, which consist of a mixture of two phases, hydroxyapatite (HA) and beta tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP), in different concentrations, gained increased attention due to their superior overall performances as compared to single-phase formulations. Moreover, the exploitation of BCP materials from by-products of fish industry was reported to be a safe, cheap, and simple procedure. In the dedicated literature, there are many reviews on synthetic HA, β-TCP, or BCP materials, but to the best of our knowledge, this is the first collection of results on the effects of processing conditions on the morphological, compositional, structural, mechanical, and biological properties of the fish discard-derived BCPs along with the tailoring of their features for various applications.

Abstract
Mesoporous silica thin film has been widely used in various fields, particularly the medical implant coating for drug delivery. However, some drawbacks remain with the films produced by traditional method (evaporation-induced self-assembly, EISA), such as the poor permeability caused by their horizontal aligned mesochannels. In this study, the vertical aligned mesoporous silica thin film (VMSTF) is uniformly grown alongside the walls of titania nanotubes array via a biphase stratification growth method, resulting in a hierarchical two-layered nanotubular structure. Due to the exposure of opened mesopores, VMSTF exhibits more appealing performances, including rapid degradation, efficient small-molecular drug (dexamethasone) loading and release, enhanced early adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. This is the first time successfully depositing VMSTF on nanoporous substrate and our findings suggest that the VMSTF may be a promising candidate for bone implant surface coating to obtain bioactive performances.

Abstract
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was proclaimed a global pandemic in March 2020. Reducing the dissemination rate, in particular by tracking the infected people and their contacts, is the main instrument against infection spreading. Therefore, the creation and implementation of fast, reliable and responsive methods suitable for the diagnosis of COVID-19 are required. These needs can be fulfilled using affinity sensors, which differ in applied detection methods and markers that are generating analytical signals. Recently, nucleic acid hybridization, antigen-antibody interaction, and change of reactive oxygen species (ROS) level are mostly used for the generation of analytical signals, which can be accurately measured by electrochemical, optical, surface plasmon resonance, field-effect transistors, and some other methods and transducers. Electrochemical biosensors are the most consistent with the general trend towards, acceleration, and simplification of the bioanalytical process. These biosensors mostly are based on the determination of antigen-antibody interaction and are robust, sensitive, accurate, and sometimes enable label-free detection of an analyte. Along with the specification of biosensors, we also provide a brief overview of generally used testing techniques, and the description of the structure, life cycle and immune host response to SARS-CoV-2, and some deeper details of analytical signal detection principles.

Abstract
Successful tissue regeneration strategies focus on the use of novel biomaterials, structures, and a variety of cues to control cell behavior and promote regeneration. Studies discovered how biomaterial/ structure cues in the form of biomaterial chemistry, material stiffness, surface topography, pore, and degradation properties play an important role in controlling cellular events in the contest of in vitro and in vivo tissue regeneration. Advanced biomaterials structures and strategies are developed to focus on the delivery of bioactive factors, such as proteins, peptides, and even small molecules to influence cell behavior and regeneration. The present article is an effort to summarize important findings and further discuss biomaterial strategies to influence and control cell behavior directly via physical and chemical cues. This article also touches on various modern methods in biomaterials processing to include bioactive factors as signaling cues to program cell behavior for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:E9467. [PMID: 33322781 PMCID: PMC7763571 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21249467] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 12/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Amine-coated biodegradable materials based on synthetic polymers have a great potential for tissue remodeling and regeneration because of their excellent processability and bioactivity. In the present study, we have investigated the influence of various chemical compositions of amine plasma polymer (PP) coatings and the influence of the substrate morphology, represented by polystyrene culture dishes and polycaprolactone nanofibers (PCL NFs), on the behavior of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Although all amine-PP coatings improved the initial adhesion of VSMCs, 7-day long cultivation revealed a clear preference for the coating containing about 15 at.% of nitrogen (CPA-33). The CPA-33 coating demonstrated the ideal combination of good water stability, a sufficient amine group content, and favorable surface wettability and morphology. The nanostructured morphology of amine-PP-coated PCL NFs successfully slowed the proliferation rate of VSMCs, which is essential in preventing restenosis of vascular replacements in vivo. At the same time, CPA-33-coated PCL NFs supported the continuous proliferation of VSMCs during 7-day long cultivation, with no significant increase in cytokine secretion by RAW 264.7 macrophages. The CPA-33 coating deposited on biodegradable PCL NFs therefore seems to be a promising material for manufacturing small-diameter vascular grafts, which are still lacking on the current market.

Abstract
Classical plant uptake is limited to hydrophilic or water-dispersible material. Therefore, in order to test the uptake behaviour of hydrophobic particles, here, we tested the fate of hydrophobic particles (oleylamine coated Cu2-xSe NPs (CS@OA)) in comparison to hydrophilic particles (chitosan-coated Cu2-xSe NPs (CS@CH)) by treatment on the plant roots. Surprisingly, hydrophobic CS@OA NPs have been found to be ~ 1.3 times more efficient than hydrophilic CS@CH NPs in tomato plant root penetration. An atomic force microscopy (AFM) adhesion force experiment confirms that hydrophobic NPs experience non-spontaneous yet energetically favorable root trapping and penetration. Further, a relative difference in the hydrophobic vs. hydrophilic NPs movement from roots to shoots has been observed and found related to the change in protein corona as identified by two dimensional-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) analysis. Finally, the toxicity assays at the give concentration showed that Cu2-xSe NPs lead to non-significant toxicity as compared to control. This technology may find an advantage in fertilizer application.

Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:E7476.

Abstract
Zirconia ceramics such as ceria-stabilized zirconia/alumina nanocomposites (nano-ZR) are applied as implant materials due to their excellent mechanical properties. However, surface treatment is required to obtain sufficient biocompatibility. In the present study, we explored the material surface functionalization and assessed the initial adhesion of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, their osteogenic differentiation, and production of hard tissue, on plasma-treated alkali-modified nano-ZR. Superhydrophilicity was observed on the plasma-treated surface of alkali-treated nano-ZR along with hydroxide formation and reduced surface carbon. A decreased contact angle was also observed as nano-ZR attained an appropriate wettability index. Treated samples showed higher in vitro bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption, initial adhesion of bone marrow and endothelial vascular cells, high alkaline phosphatase activity, and increased expression of bone differentiation-related factors. Furthermore, the in vivo performance of treated nano-ZR was evaluated by implantation in the femur of male Sprague-Dawley rats. The results showed that the amount of bone formed after the plasma treatment of alkali-modified nano-ZR was higher than that of untreated nano-ZR. Thus, induction of superhydrophilicity in nano-ZR via atmospheric pressure plasma treatment affects bone marrow and vascular cell adhesion and promotes bone formation without altering other surface properties.

Abstract
Nanocomposites have been widely applied in medical device fabrication and tissue-engineering applications. In this context, the release of metal ions as well as protein adsorption capacity are hypothesized to be two key processes directing nanocomposite-cell interactions. The objective of this study is to understand the polymer-matrix effects on ion release kinetics and their relations with protein adsorption. Laser ablation in macromolecule solutions was employed for synthesizing Au and Fe nanoparticle-loaded nanocomposites based on thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and alginate. Confocal microscopy revealed a three-dimensional homogeneous dispersion of laser-generated nanoparticles in the polymer. The physicochemical properties revealed a pronounced dependence upon embedding of Fe and Au nanoparticles in both polymer matrices. Interestingly, the total Fe ion concentration released from alginate gels under static conditions decreased with increasing mass loadings, a phenomenon only found in the Fe-alginate system and not in the Cu/Zn-alginate and Fe-TPU control system (where the effects were proportioonal to the nanoparticle load). A detailed mechanistic examination of iron the ion release process revealed that it is probably not the redox potential of metals and diffusion of metal ions alone, but also the solubility of nano-metal oxides and affinity of metal ions for alginate that lead to the special release behaviors of iron ions from alginate gels. The amount of adsorbed bovine serum albumin (BSA) and collagen I on the surface of both the alginate and TPU composites was significantly increased in contrast to the unloaded control polymers and could be correlated with the concentration of released Fe ions and the porosity of composites, but was independent of the global surface charge. Interestingly, these effects were already highly pronounced at minute loadings with Fe nanoparticles down to 200 ppm. Moreover, the laser-generated Fe or Au nanoparticle-loaded alginate composites were shown to be a suitable bioink for 3D printing. These findings are potentially relevant for ion-sensitive bio-responses in cell differentiation, endothelisation, vascularisation, or wound healing.

Abstract
The formation of biofilms on biomaterials causes biofilm-associated infections. Available treatments often fail to fight the microorganisms in the biofilm, creating serious risks for patient well-being and life. Due to their significant antibiofilm activities, antimicrobial peptides are being intensively investigated in this regard. A promising approach is a combination therapy that aims to increase the efficacy and broaden the spectrum of antibiotics. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of temporin A and the short lipopeptides (C10)2-KKKK-NH2 and (C12)2-KKKK-NH2 in combination with gentamicin against biofilm formed by Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA). Peptides were synthesized with solid-phase temperature-assisted synthesis methodology. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), fractional inhibitory concentrations (FICs), minimum biofilm eradication concentrations (MBECs), and the influence of combinations of compounds with gentamicin on bacterial biofilm were determined for reference strains of SA (ATCC 25923) and PA (ATCC 9027). The peptides exhibited significant potential to enhance the antibacterial activity of gentamicin against SA biofilm, but there was no synergy in activity against planktonic cells. The antibiotic applied alone demonstrated strong activity against planktonic cells and poor effectiveness against SA biofilm. Biofilm formed by PA was much more sensitive to gentamicin, but some positive influences of supplementation with peptides were noticed. The results of the performed experiments suggest that the potential application of peptides as adjuvant agents in the treatment of biofilm-associated infections should be studied further.

A facile surface modification of poly(dimethylsiloxane) with amino acid conjugated self-assembled monolayers for enhanced osteoblast cell behavior. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2020; 196:111343.

Abstract
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a biocompatible synthetic polymer and used in various applications due to its low toxicity and tunable surface properties. However, PDMS does not have any chemical cues for cell binding. Plasma treatment, protein coating or surface modification with various molecules have been used to improve its surface characteristics. Still, these techniques are either last for a very limited time or have very complicated experimental procedures. In the present study, simple and one-step surface modification of PDMS is successfully accomplished by the preparation of hydrophilic and hydrophobic amino acid conjugated self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) for enhanced interactions at the cell-substrate interface. Synthesis of histidine and leucine conjugated (3-aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane (His-APTES and Leu-APTES) were confirmed with proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR) and optimum conditions for the modification of PDMS with SAMs were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, combined with water contact angle (WCA) measurements. Results indicated that both SAMs enhanced cellular behavior in vitro. Furthermore, hydrophilic His-APTES modification provides a superior environment for the osteoblast maturation with higher alkaline phosphatase activity and mineralization. As histidine, leucine, and functional groups of these SAMs are naturally found in biological systems, modification of PDMS with them increases its cell-substrate surface biomimetic properties. This study establishes a successful modification of PDMS for in vitro cell studies, offering a biomimetic and easy procedure for potential applications in microfluidics, cell-based therapies, or drug investigations.

Abstract
The efficient immobilization of haloalkane dehalogenase (DhaA) on carriers with retaining of its catalytic activity is essential for its application in environmental remediation. In this work, adsorption orientation and conformation of DhaA on different functional surfaces were investigated by computer simulations; meanwhile, the mechanism of varying the catalytic activity was also probed. The corresponding experiments were then carried out to verify the simulation results. (The simulations of DhaA on SAMs provided parallel insights into DhaA adsorption in carriers. Then, the theory-guided experiments were carried out to screen the best surface functional groups for DhaA immobilization.) The electrostatic interaction was considered as the main impact factor for the regulation of enzyme orientation, conformation, and enzyme bioactivity during DhaA adsorption. The synergy of overall conformation, enzyme substrate tunnel structural parameters, and distance between catalytic active sites and surfaces codetermined the catalytic activity of DhaA. Specifically, it was found that the positively charged surface with suitable surface charge density was helpful for the adsorption of DhaA and retaining its conformation and catalytic activity and was favorable for higher enzymatic catalysis efficiency in haloalkane decomposition and environmental remediation. The neutral, negatively charged surfaces and positively charged surfaces with high surface charge density always caused relatively larger DhaA conformation change and decreased catalytic activity. This study develops a strategy using a combination of simulation and experiment, which can be essential for guiding the rational design of the functionalization of carriers for enzyme adsorption, and provides a practical tool to rationally screen functional groups for the optimization of adsorbed enzyme functions on carriers. More importantly, the strategy is general and can be applied to control behaviors of different enzymes on functional carrier materials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Rapid transmission of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has affected the whole world and forced it to a halt (lockdown). A fast and label-free detection method for the novel coronavirus needs to be developed along with the existing enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)-based methods. AREAS COVERED In this report, biophysical aspects of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike glycoprotein are outlined based on its recent reported electron microscopy structure. Protein binding sites are analyzed theoretically, which consisted of hydrophobic and positive charged amino acid residues. Different strategies to form mixed self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of hydrophobic (CH3) and negatively charged (COOH) groups are discussed to be used for the specific and strong interactions with spike protein. Bio-interfacial interactions between the spike protein and device (sensor) surface and its implications toward designing suitable engineered surfaces are summarized. EXPERT OPINION Implementation of the engineered surfaces in quartz crystal microbalance (QCM)-based detection techniques for the diagnosis of the novel coronavirus from oral swab samples is highlighted. The proposed strategy can be explored for the label-free and real-time detection with sensitivity up to ng level. These engineered surfaces can be reused after desorption.

Abstract
Biomedical scientists use chemistry-driven processes found in nature as an inspiration to design biomaterials as promising diagnostic tools, therapeutic solutions, or tissue substitutes. While substantial consideration is devoted to the design and validation of biomaterials, the nature of their interactions with the surrounding biological microenvironment is commonly neglected. This gap of knowledge could be owing to our poor understanding of biochemical signaling pathways, lack of reliable techniques for designing biomaterials with optimal physicochemical properties, and/or poor stability of biomaterial properties after implantation. The success of host responses to biomaterials, known as biocompatibility, depends on chemical principles as the root of both cell signaling pathways in the body and how the biomaterial surface is designed. Most of the current review papers have discussed chemical engineering and biological principles of designing biomaterials as separate topics, which has resulted in neglecting the main role of chemistry in this field. In this review, we discuss biocompatibility in the context of chemistry, what it is and how to assess it, while describing contributions from both biochemical cues and biomaterials as well as the means of harmonizing them. We address both biochemical signal-transduction pathways and engineering principles of designing a biomaterial with an emphasis on its surface physicochemistry. As we aim to show the role of chemistry in the crosstalk between the surface physicochemical properties and body responses, we concisely highlight the main biochemical signal-transduction pathways involved in the biocompatibility complex. Finally, we discuss the progress and challenges associated with the current strategies used for improving the chemical and physical interactions between cells and biomaterial surface.

Abstract
Microbial surface attachment negatively impacts a wide range of devices from water purification membranes to biomedical implants. Mimics of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) constituted from poly(N-substituted glycine) "peptoids" are of great interest as they resist proteolysis and can inhibit a wide spectrum of microbes. We investigate how terminal modification of a peptoid AMP-mimic and its surface immobilization affect antimicrobial activity. We also demonstrate a convenient surface modification strategy for enabling alkyne-azide "click" coupling on amino-functionalized surfaces. Our results verified that the N- and C-terminal peptoid structures are not required for antimicrobial activity. Moreover, our peptoid immobilization density and choice of PEG tether resulted in a "volumetric" spatial separation between AMPs that, compared to past studies, enabled the highest AMP surface activity relative to bacterial attachment. Our analysis suggests the importance of spatial flexibility for membrane activity and that AMP separation may be a controlling parameter for optimizing surface anti-biofouling.

Behera RR, Das A, Hasan A, Pamu D, Pandey LM, Sankar MR. Effect of TiO 2 addition on adhesion and biological behavior of BCP-TiO 2 composite films deposited by magnetron sputtering. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2020; 114:111033. [PMID: 32994014 DOI: 10.1016/j.msec.2020.111033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2020] [Revised: 04/20/2020] [Accepted: 04/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
The present investigation focuses on the deposition of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) and titania (TiO2) composite films on Ti-6Al-4V substrates using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. Three different compositions such as 100% BCP, 25% TiO2-75% BCP and 50% TiO2-50% BCP films were fabricated, and the physical, mechanical and biological behaviors of the films were analyzed. Post deposition, the films were annealed at 700 °C for 2 h to induce the crystallinity and to study its effect on different properties. The wettability was found to be 95°(±3°) for 100% BCP, 73°(±2°) for 25% TiO2-75% BCP and 35°(±1°) for 50% TiO2-50% BCP films, indicating improvement in wettability with an increase of TiO2 weight percent in the composite films. The value of critical load (Lc2) for 100 BCP film improved from 8.7 N to 14.8 N (25 TiO2-BCP) and >19 N (50 TiO2-BCP film), indicating improvement in bonding strength with TiO2 addition. The fetal bovine serum (FBS) adsorption decreased from 7.11 ± 0.25 to 4.42 ± 0.17 μg/cm2 with TiO2 weight percent from 0 to 50%. Cell adhesion and proliferation significantly improved in 100% BCP, 25% TiO2-75% BCP and 50% TiO2-50% BCP films as compared to uncoated Ti-6Al-4V. The maximum cell proliferation was found on the surface of 50% TiO2-50% BCP film (210.1 ± 6.5%) after 6 days of incubation. However, after annealing all the films exhibited less cell adhesion and cytocompatibility presumably due to change in composition. Globular apatite structure was observed on all modified surfaces after 7 days immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF); however, the growth rate was higher for 50 TiO2-BCP films. All these results revealed that the addition of TiO2 in BCP film (without annealing) is advantageous for improving the bonding strength as well as the bioactivity of implants, which can be used for long-term dental and orthopedic applications.

Abstract
Layer-by-layer self-assembly (LBL) technique is a very efficient and convenient method to modify the substrate surface. In this study, we report a self-repairing surface coating that can promote cell adhesion, especially for enhancing the adhesion of coral cells on the basal surface. The results confirmed that the modified chitosan-dialdehyde starch film based on Schiff base has good biocompatibility for common mammalian cells, such as normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDFs) and relatively special cells (coral cells). The cytotoxicity test indicated that the optical density values of the experimental group films at 490 nm were higher than those of the control group in this study. In addition, the self-repairing coating modified by phase transition lysozyme can maintain its adhesion ability underwater for a period of time. Therefore, they have great application on substrates requiring underwater adhesion. Our results confirmed that the modified chitosan-dialdehyde starch self-healing films could provide a biocompatible coating material to promote the adhesion of normal human epidermal fibroblasts or coral cells.

Abstract
Adsorption and desorption of proteins on biomaterial surfaces play a critical role in numerous biomedical applications. Spherical diblock polymer brushes (polystyrene with photoiniferter (PSV) as the core) with different block sequence, poly(acrylic acid)-b-poly(N-(2-hydroxyethyl) acrylamide) (PSV@PAA-b-PHEAA) and poly(N-(2-hydroxyethyl) acrylamide)-b-poly(acrylic acid) (PSV@PHEAA-b-PAA) were prepared via surface-initiated photoiniferter-mediated polymerization (SI-PIMP) and confirmed by a series of characterizations including TEM, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and elemental analysis. Both diblock polymer brushes show typical pH-dependent properties measured by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and Zeta potential. It is interesting to find out that conformation of PSV@PAA-b-PHEAA uniquely change with pH values, which is due to cooperation of electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance. High-resolution turbidimetric titration was applied to explore the behavior of bovine serum albumin (BSA) binding to diblock polymer brushes, and the protein adsorption could be tuned by the existence of PHEAA as well as apparent PAA density. These studies laid a theoretical foundation for design of diblock polymer brushes and a possible application in biomedical fields.

Abstract
Cell-based tissue reconstruction is an important field of regenerative medicine. Stem and progenitor cells derived from tooth-associated tissues have strong regeneration potential. However, their in vivo application requires the development of novel scaffolds that will provide a suitable three-dimensional (3D) environment allowing not only the survival of the cells but eliciting their proliferation and differentiation. Our aim was to study the viability and differentiation capacity of periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs) cultured on recently developed biocompatible and biodegradable poly(aspartamide) (PASP)-based hydrogels. Viability and behavior of PDLCs were investigated on PASP-based hydrogels possessing different chemical, physical and mechanical properties. Based on our previous results, the effect of thiol group density in the polymer matrix on cell viability, morphology and differentiation ability is in the focus of our article. The chemical composition and 3D structures of the hydrogels were determined by FT Raman spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy. Morphology of the cells was examined by phase contrast microscopy. To visualize cell growth and migration patterns through the hydrogels, two-photon microscopy were utilized. Cell viability analysis was performed according to a standardized protocol using WST-1 reagent. PDLCs were able to attach and grow on PASP-based hydrogels. An increase in gel stiffness enhanced adhesion and proliferation of the cells. However, the highest population of viable cells was observed on the PASP gels containing free thiol groups. The presence of thiol groups does not only enhance viability but also facilitates the osteogenic direction of the differentiating cells. These cell-gel structures seem to be highly promising for cell-based tissue reconstruction purposes in the field of regenerative medicine.

Influence of Short Cationic Lipopeptides with Fatty Acids of Different Chain Lengths on Bacterial Biofilms Formed on Polystyrene and Hydrogel Surfaces. Pharmaceutics 2019; 11:E506. [PMID: 31581500 PMCID: PMC6835763 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics11100506] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2019] [Revised: 09/21/2019] [Accepted: 09/23/2019] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Nowadays, biomaterials are applied in many different branches of medicine. They significantly improve the patients' comfort and quality of life, but also constitute a significant risk factor for biofilm-associated infections. Currently, intensive research on the development of novel materials resistant to microbial colonization as well as new compounds that are active against biofilms is being carried out. Within this research, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and their analogues are being intensively investigated due to their promising antimicrobial activities. The main goal of this study was to synthesize and evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy of short cationic lipopeptides that were designed to imitate the features of AMPs responsible for antimicrobial activities: positive net charge and amphipacity. The positive charge of the molecules results from the presence of basic amino acid residues: arginine and lysine. Amphipacity is provided by the introduction of decanoic, dodecanoic, tetradecanoic, and hexadecanoic acid chains to the molecules. Lipopeptides (C16-KR-NH2, C16-KKK-NH2, C16-KKC-NH2, C16-KGK-NH2, C14-KR-NH2, C14-KKC-NH2, C12-KR-NH2, C12-KKC-NH2, and (C10)2-KKKK-NH2) were synthesized using a novel solid-phase temperature-assisted methodology. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), minimum biofilm eradication concentrations (MBECs), and minimum biofilm formation inhibitory concentrations (MBFICs) were determined for the following bacterial strains: Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Staphylococcus epidermidis ATCC 14990, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 9027, and Proteus mirabilis PCM 543. The biofilms were cultured on two types of surfaces: polystyrene plates (PS) and contact lenses (CL). The lipopeptides exhibited the ability to inhibit the growth of bacteria in a liquid medium as well as on the PS and CL. The compounds also eliminated the bacterial biofilm from the surface of both materials. In general, the activity against gram-positive bacteria was stronger in comparison to that against gram-negative strains. There were certain discrepancies between the activity of compounds against the biofilm cultured on PS and CL. This was especially noticeable for staphylococci-the lipopeptides presented much higher activity against biofilm formed on the PS surface. It is worth noting that the obtained MBEC values for lipopeptides were usually only a few times higher than the MICs. The results of the performed experiments suggest that further studies on lipopeptides and their potential application in the treatment and prophylaxis of biofilm-associated infections should be conducted.

Abstract
Nano- and microstructured titanium surfaces have recently attracted attention in the field of regenerative medicine because of the influence which surface characteristics such as roughness and wettability can have on cellular processes. This study focuses on the correlation of surface properties (wettability and nano/micro texture) of laser-structured Ti6Al4V samples with pronounced cell adhesion. Samples were structured with multiple laser parameters in order to create a range of surface properties. Surface characterization was performed by contact angle measurements 1 and 7 days after laser processing. The arithmetic mean roughness of the material surface in an area (Sa) was determined by means of confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Immediately after wettability tests of the laser-structured surfaces, in vitro experiments with human MG-63 osteoblasts were carried out. For this purpose, the cell morphology and actin cytoskeleton organization were analyzed using CLSM and scanning electron microscopy. On rough microstructures with deep cavities, the cell growth and spreading were inhibited. An improved cellular adhesion and growth on nanostructured and sinusoidal microstructured surfaces could be demonstrated, regardless of hydrophilicity of the surfaces.

Abstract
Cell responses to oxide biomaterials depend on the protein adsorption behavior of the biomaterial surface. Thus, the inherent properties of oxide biomaterial surfaces play a key role in this process. However, commonly used biomaterials, such as calcium phosphate and titanium dioxide, have surfaces with strong mineralization, which may interfere with the ability to clarify the key aspects of the oxide biomaterial regarding protein adsorption and cellular processes. Here, nonmineralized crystalline and vitreous silica were selected as model oxide biomaterials to explore the inherent properties of these materials on the absorption behavior of the functional protein fibronectin (Fn) and on the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). We demonstrated that due to the smaller O1s binding energy, the weaker polarization of oxygen atoms in vitreous silica produced a greater amount of acidic hydroxyls after hydration compared to crystalline silica. These distinct features significantly upregulated the exposure of arginylglycylaspartic acid (RGD) and synergy sites (PHSRN) of Fn and eventually enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs on vitreous silica surfaces through activation of the integrin-linked kinase (ILK) signaling pathway. Our results highlight the key role of inherent oxide biomaterial crystallinity in protein adsorption and cell behavior.
