Abstract
Tissue-engineered skin substitutes (TESS) emerged as a new therapeutic option to improve skin transplantation. However, establishing an adequate and rapid vascularization in TESS is a critical factor for their clinical application and successful engraftment in patients. Therefore, several methods have been applied to improve the vascularization of skin substitutes including (i) modifying the structural and physicochemical properties of dermal scaffolds; (ii) activating biological scaffolds with growth factor-releasing systems or gene vectors; and (iii) developing prevascularized skin substitutes by loading scaffolds with capillary-forming cells. This review provides a detailed overview of the most recent and important developments in the vascularization strategies for skin substitutes. On the one hand, we present cell-based approaches using stem cells, microvascular fragments, adipose tissue derived stromal vascular fraction, endothelial cells derived from blood and skin as well as other pro-angiogenic stimulation methods. On the other hand, we discuss how distinct 3D bioprinting techniques and microfluidics, miRNA manipulation, cell sheet engineering and photosynthetic scaffolds like GelMA, can enhance skin vascularization for clinical applications. Finally, we summarize and discuss the challenges and prospects of the currently available vascularization techniques that may serve as a steppingstone to a mainstream application of skin tissue engineering.

Abstract
Autologous adipose tissue is commonly used for tissue engraftment for the purposes of soft tissue reconstruction due to its relative abundance in the human body and ease of acquisition using liposuction methods. This has led to the adoption of autologous adipose engraftment procedures that allow for the injection of adipose tissues to be used as a "filler" for correcting cosmetic defects and deformities in soft tissues. However, the clinical use of such methods has several limitations, including high resorption rates and poor cell survivability, which lead to low graft volume retention and inconsistent outcomes. Here, we describe a novel application of milled electrospun poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) fibers, which can be co-injected with adipose tissue to improve engraftment outcomes. These PLGA fibers had no significant negative impact on the viability of adipocytes in vitro and did not elicit long-term proinflammatory responses in vivo. Furthermore, co-delivery of human adipose tissue with pulverized electrospun PLGA fibers led to significant improvements in reperfusion, vascularity, and retention of graft volume compared to injections of adipose tissue alone. Taken together, the use of milled electrospun fibers to enhance autologous adipose engraftment techniques represents a novel approach for improving upon the shortcomings of such methods.

Adipose Tissue Development Relies on Coordinated Extracellular Matrix Remodeling, Angiogenesis, and Adipogenesis. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10092227.

Abstract
Despite developing prenatally, the adipose tissue is unique in its ability to undergo drastic growth even after reaching its mature size. This development and subsequent maintenance rely on the proper coordination between the vascular niche and the adipose compartment. In this review, the process of adipose tissue development is broken down to explain (1) the ultrastructural matrix remodeling that is undertaken during simultaneous adipogenesis and angiogenesis, (2) the paracrine crosstalk involved during adipose development, (3) the mechanical regulators involved in adipose growth, and (4) the proteolytic and paracrine oversight for matrix remodeling during adipose development. It is crucial to gain a better understanding of the complex relationships that exist between adipose tissue and the vasculature during tissue development to provide insights into the pathological tissue expansion of obesity and to develop improved soft-tissue reconstruction techniques.

Abstract
As a major component of extracellular matrixes (ECMs), collagen is an attractive biomaterial to fabricate porous scaffold for tissue engineering due to their similarity to the in vivo static microenvironment. However, the collagen-based porous scaffolds were difficult to mimic the dynamically remolded porous structure of ECM during the cell proliferation and tissue development, and always have poor mechanical property and not easy to handle. Here, natural collagen and partially denatured collagen was used to prepare the stepwise degradable hybrid bioscaffold with suitable mechanical property and dynamically remolded inner porous structure, which is desirable for the applications of tissue engineering. The collagen-based microporous scaffold was first prepared and used as physical support, then, the mechanical strength of which was reinforced by the import of the partially denatured collagen to give the hybrid bioscaffold. The fabrication conditions of the hybrid scaffolds were optimized, of which the thermal stability, mechanical property, and swelling property was explored. The stepwise enzymatic degradation process and the corresponding porous structure variation of the hybrid scaffold was confirmed by SEM and cell culture assays.

Abstract
The treatment of melanoma requires not only the elimination of skin cancer cells but also skin regeneration to heal defects. To achieve this goal, a bifunctional composite scaffold of poly(DL-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), collagen and black phosphorus nanosheets (BPNSs) was prepared by hybridizing a BPNS-embedded collagen sponge with a PLGA knitted mesh. The composite mesh increased the temperature under near-infrared laser irradiation. The incorporation of BPNSs provided the PLGA-collagen-BPNS composite mesh with excellent photothermal properties for the photothermal ablation of melanoma cells both in vitro and in vivo. The PLGA-collagen-BPNS composite mesh had high mechanical strength for easy handling. The PLGA-collagen-BPNS composite mesh facilitated the proliferation of fibroblasts, promoted the expression of angiogenesis-related genes and the genes of components of the extracellular matrix for skin tissue regeneration. The high mechanical strength, photothermal ablation capability and skin tissue regeneration effects demonstrate that the bifunctional PLGA-collagen-BPNS composite mesh is a versatile and effective platform for the treatment of melanoma and the regeneration of skin defects.

Abstract
Cancer stem cells (CSCs) or cancer-initiating cells (CICs) are key factors for tumor generation and metastasis. We investigated a filtration method to enhance CSCs (CICs) from colon carcinoma HT-29 cells and primary colon carcinoma cells derived from patient colon tumors using poly(lactide-co-glycolic acid)/silk screen (PLGA/SK) filters. The colon carcinoma cell solutions were permeated via porous filters to obtain a permeation solution. Then, the cell cultivation media were permeated via the filters to obtain the recovered solution, where the colon carcinoma cells that adhered to the filters were washed off into the recovered solution. Subsequently, the filters were incubated in the culture media to obtain the migrated cells via the filters. Colon carcinoma HT-29 cells with high tumorigenicity, which might be CSCs (CICs), were enhanced in the cells in the recovered solution and in the migrated cells based on the CSC (CIC) marker expression, colony-forming unit assay, and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) production. Although primary colon carcinoma cells isolated from colon tumor tissues contained fibroblast-like cells, the primary colon carcinoma cells were purified from fibroblast-like cells by filtration through PLGA/SK filters, indicating that the filtration method is effective in purifying primary colon carcinoma cells.

Abstract
Cancer-initiating cells (CICs) or cancer stem cells (CSCs) are primarily responsible for tumor initiation, growth, and metastasis and represent a few percent of the total tumor cell population. We designed a membrane filtration protocol to enrich CICs (CSCs) from the LoVo colon cancer cell line via nylon mesh filter membranes with 11 and 20 μm pore sizes and poly(lactide-co-glycolic acid)/silk screen (PLGA/silk screen) porous membranes (pore sizes of 20-30 μm). The colon cancer cell solution was filtered through the membranes to obtain a permeate solution. Subsequently, the cell culture medium was filtered through the membranes to collect the recovery solution where the cells attached to the membranes were rinsed off into the recovery solution. Then, the membranes were cultivated in the cultivation medium to collect the migrated cells from the membranes. The cells migrated from any membrane had higher expression of the CSC surface markers CD44 and CD133, had higher colony formation levels, and produced more carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) than the colon cancer cells cultivated on conventional tissue culture plates (control). We established a method to enrich the CICs (CSCs) of colon cancer cells from migrated cells through porous polymeric membranes by the membrane filtration protocol developed in this study.

Abstract
An extracellular matrix (ECM) utilized as a biomaterial can be obtained from organs of living organisms. Therefore, it has some limitations in its supply because of insufficient organs. Furthermore, therapeutic efficacy of ECMs varies depending on factors such as donor's health condition and age. For this reason, ECMs obtained from a cell line could be a good alternative because they can be produced under a controlled environment with uniform quality. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the potential of the MC3T3-E1 cell line-derived ECM as bone graft. The optimized decellularization process was developed to separate the ECM from MC3T3-E1, osteoblast cell line, using Trypsin-EDTA and Triton X-100. The decellularized ECM was partially digested using pepsin. Also, human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells induced faster osteogenesis on the ECM-coated surface than on the collagen-coated surface. Partially digested ECM fragments were embedded on the polyethylene glycol scaffold without additional chemical modification or crosslinking. Micro-computed tomography and histological analysis results showed that the ECM in the scaffold promoted actual bone regeneration after in vivo implantation to a mouse calvarial defect model. This study suggests that the bone-specific ECM derived from the cell line can replace the ECM from organs for application in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that stem cell fate can be regulated by mechanical properties of the extracellular matrix. Most studies have focused onthe influence of matrix elasticity and viscoelasticity on stem cell differentiation. However, how matrix viscosity affects stem cell differentiation has been overlooked. In this study, a biphasic gelatin solution/hydrogel system is used for 3D culture of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to investigate the influence of gelatin solution viscosity on simultaneous osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation at the same culture condition. Gelatin solution promotes cell proliferation, while its promotive effect decreases with the increase of viscosity. The influence of viscosity on osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of MSCs shows opposite trends. A high-viscosity gelatin solution results in an increase of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium deposition, and expression of osteogenesis-related genes. On the other hand, in a low-viscosity gelatin solution, a lot of lipid vacuoles are formed and adipogenesis-related genes are highly expressed. The results indicate high viscosity is beneficial for osteogenic differentiation, while low viscosity is beneficial for adipogenic differentiation. These findings suggest the importance of matrix viscosity on stem cell differentiation in 3D microenvironments.
