Abstract
Pulmonary air leak is the most common complication of lung surgery, contributing to post-operative morbidity in up to 60% of patients; yet, there is no reliable treatment. Available surgical sealants do not match the demanding deformation mechanics of lung tissue; and therefore, fail to seal air leak. To address this therapeutic gap, a sealant with structural and mechanical similarity to subpleural lung is designed, developed, and systematically evaluated. This "lung-mimetic" sealant is a hydrofoam material that has alveolar-like porous ultrastructure, lung-like viscoelastic properties (adhesive, compressive, tensile), and lung extracellular matrix-derived signals (matrikines) to support tissue repair. In biocompatibility testing, the lung-mimetic sealant shows minimal cytotoxicity and immunogenicity in vitro. Human primary monocytes exposed to sealant matrikines in vitro upregulate key genes (MARCO, PDGFB, VEGF) known to correlate with pleural wound healing and tissue repair in vivo. In rat and swine models of pulmonary air leak, this lung-mimetic sealant rapidly seals air leak and restores baseline lung mechanics. Altogether, these data indicate that the lung-mimetic sealant can effectively seal pulmonary air leak and promote a favorable cellular response in vitro.

Abstract
Proteoglycans (PGs) play many important roles in biology, contributing to the mechanical properties of tissues, helping to organize extracellular matrix components, and participating in signaling mechanisms related to mechanotransduction, cell differentiation, immune responses, and wound healing. Our lab has designed two different types of PG mimics: polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles (PCNs) and PG-mimetic graft copolymers (GCs), both of which are prepared using naturally occurring glycosaminoglycans. This work evaluates the enzymatic stability of these PG mimics using hyaluronidases (I-S, IV-S, and II), chondroitinase ABC, and lysozyme, for PG mimics suspended in solution and adsorbed onto surfaces. Hyaluronan (HA)- and chondroitin sulfate (CS)-containing PG mimics are degraded by the hyaluronidases. PCNs prepared with CS and GCs prepared with heparin are the only CS- and HA-containing PG mimics protected from chondroitinase ABC. None of the materials are measurably degraded by lysozyme. Adsorption to polyelectrolyte multilayer surfaces protects PG mimics from degradation, compared to when PG mimics are combined with enzymes in solution; all surfaces are still intact after 21 days of enzyme exposure. This work reveals how the stability of PG mimics is controlled by both the composition and macromolecular assembly of the PG mimic and also by the size and specificity of the enzyme. Understanding and tuning these degradation susceptibilities are essential for advancing their applications in cardiovascular materials, orthopedic materials, and growth factor delivery applications.

Abstract
Polysaccharide-based materials created by physical processes have received considerable attention for biomedical applications. These structures are often made by associating charged polyelectrolytes in aqueous solutions, avoiding toxic chemistries (crosslinking agents). We review the principal polysaccharides (glycosaminoglycans, marine polysaccharides, and derivatives) containing ionizable groups in their structures and cellulose (neutral polysaccharide). Physical materials with high stability in aqueous media can be developed depending on the selected strategy. We review strategies, including coacervation, ionotropic gelation, electrospinning, layer-by-layer coating, gelation of polymer blends, solvent evaporation, and freezing-thawing methods, that create polysaccharide-based assemblies via in situ (one-step) methods for biomedical applications. We focus on materials used for growth factor (GFs) delivery, scaffolds, antimicrobial coatings, and wound dressings.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease and an important cause of incapacitation. There is a lack of drugs and effective treatments that stop or slow the OA progression. Modern pharmacological treatments, such as analgesics, have analgesic effects but do not affect the course of OA. Long-term use of these drugs can lead to serious side effects. Given the OA nature, it is likely that lifelong treatment will be required to stop or slow its progression. Therefore, there is an urgent need for disease-modifying OA treatments that are also safe for clinical use over long periods. Phytonutraceuticals are herbal products that provide a therapeutic effect, including disease prevention, which not only have favorable safety characteristics but may have an alleviating effect on the OA and its symptoms. An estimated 47% of OA patients use alternative drugs, including phytonutraceuticals. The review studies the efficacy and action mechanism of widely used phytonutraceuticals, analyzes the available experimental and clinical data on the effect of some phytonutraceuticals (phytoflavonoids, polyphenols, and bioflavonoids) on OA, and examines the known molecular effect and the possibility of their use for chondroprotection.

Abstract
When flowing whole blood contacts medical device surfaces, the most common blood-material interactions result in coagulation, inflammation, and infection. Many new blood-contacting biomaterials have been proposed based on strategies that address just one of these common modes of failure. This study proposes to mitigate unfavorable biological reactions that occur with blood-contacting medical devices by designing multifunctional surfaces, with features optimized to meet multiple performance criteria. These multifunctional surfaces incorporate the release of the small molecule hormone nitric oxide (NO) with surface chemistry and nanotopography that mimic features of the vascular endothelial glycocalyx. These multifunctional surfaces have features that interact with coagulation components, inflammatory cells, and bacterial cells. While a single surface feature alone may not be sufficient to achieve multiple functions, the release of NO from the surfaces along with their modification to mimic the endothelial glycocalyx synergistically improves platelet-, leukocyte-, and bacteria-surface interactions. This work demonstrates that new blood-compatible materials should be designed with multiple features, to better address the multiple modes of failure of blood-contacting medical devices.

Abstract
In this study, a surface modification strategy using natural biopolymers on titanium is proposed to improve bone healing and promote rapid and successful osseointegration of orthopedic implants. Titania nanotubes were fabricated via an anodization process and the surfaces were further modified with polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs) based on Tanfloc (a cationic tannin derivative) and glycosaminoglycans (heparin and hyaluronic acid). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact angle measurements, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the surfaces. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were seeded on the surfaces, and the cell viability, adhesion, and proliferation were investigated. Osteogenesis was induced and osteogenic differentiation of human ADSCs on the surfaces was evaluated via mineralization and protein expression assays, immunofluorescent staining, and SEM. The Tanfloc/heparin PEMs on titania nanotubes improved the rate of osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs as well as the bone mineral deposition, and is therefore a promising approach for use in orthopedic implants.

Abstract
Incomplete osseointegration is primary cause of failure for orthopedic implants. New biomaterials that present stable signals promoting osteogenesis could reduce failure rates of orthopedic implants. In this study bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) was delivered from titania nanotubes (Nt) modified with chitosan/heparin polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs). The surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. BMP-2 release from the surfaces was measured in vitro for up to 28 days. After an initial burst release of BMP-2 during the first 2 days, most of the BMP-2 remained on the surface. To determine the osteogenic properties of these surfaces, they were seeded with rat bone marrow cells; alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, total protein, calcium deposition, and osteocalcin were measured up to 4 weeks in vitro. When compared to Nt surfaces, the surfaces with BMP-2 induce greater osteocalcin and calcium deposition. PEMs provide sustained presentation of BMP-2, from a biomimetic surface. This enhances the osteogenic properties of the surface without requiring supraphysiologic growth factor dose. This growth factor delivery strategy could be used to improve bone healing outcomes and reduce complications for recipients of orthopedic implants.

Abstract
Proteoglycans have emerged as biomacromolecules with important roles in matrix remodeling, homeostasis, and signaling in the past two decades. Due to their negatively charged glycosaminoglycan chains as well as distinct core protein structures, they interact with a variety of molecules, including matrix proteins, growth factors, cytokines and chemokines, pathogens, and enzymes. This led to the dawn of glycan therapies in the 20th century, but this research was quickly overshadowed by readily available DNA and protein-based therapies. The recent development of recombinant technology and advances in our understanding of proteoglycan function have led to a resurgence of these molecules as potential therapeutics. This review focuses on the recent preclinical efforts that are bringing proteoglycan research and therapies back to the forefront. Examples of studies using proteoglycan cores and mimetics have also been included to give the readers a perspective on the wide-ranging and extensive applications of these versatile molecules. Collectively, these advances are opening new avenues for targeting diseases at a molecular level, and providing avenues for the development of new and exciting treatments in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Growth factors (GFs) are versatile signalling molecules that orchestrate the dynamic, multi-stage process of wound healing. Delivery of exogenous GFs to the wound milieu to mediate healing in an active, physiologically-relevant manner has shown great promise in laboratories; however, the inherent instability of GFs, accompanied with numerous safety, efficacy and cost concerns, has hindered the clinical success of GF delivery. In this article, we highlight that the key to overcoming these challenges is to enhance the control of the activities of GFs throughout the delivering process. We summarise the recent strategies based on biomaterials matrices and molecular engineering, which aim to improve the conditions of GFs for delivery (at the 'supply' end of the delivery), increase the stability and functions of GFs in extracellular matrix (in transportation to target cells), as well as enhance the GFs/receptor interaction on the cell membrane (at the 'destination' end of the delivery). Many of these investigations have led to encouraging outcomes in various in vitro and in vivo regenerative models with considerable translational potential.

Abstract
Blood-contacting materials are critical in many applications where long-term performance is desired. However, there are currently no engineered materials used in cardiovascular implants and devices that completely prevent clotting when in long-term contact with whole blood. The most common approach to developing next-generation blood-compatible materials is to design surface chemistries and structures that reduce or eliminate protein adsorption to prevent blood clotting. This work proposes a new paradigm for controlling protein-surface interactions by strategically mimicking key features of the glycocalyx lining the interior surfaces of blood vessels: negatively charged glycosaminoglycans organized into a polymer brush with nanoscale domains. The interactions of two important proteins from blood (albumin and fibrinogen) with these new glycocalyx mimics are revealed in detail using surface plasmon resonance and single-molecule microscopy. Surface plasmon resonance shows that these blood proteins interact reversibly with the glycocalyx mimics, but have no irreversible adsorption above the limit of detection. Single-molecule microscopy is used to compare albumin and fibrinogen interactions on surfaces with and without glycocalyx-mimetic nanostructures. Microscopy videos reveal a new mechanism whereby the glycocalyx-mimetic nanostructures eliminate the formation of fibrin networks on the surfaces. This approach shows for the first time that the nanoscale structure and organization of glycosaminoglycans in the glycocalyx are essential to (i) reduce protein adsorption, (ii) reversibly bind fibrin(ogen), and (iii) inhibit fibrin network formation on surfaces. The insights gained from this work suggest new design principles for blood-compatible surfaces. New surfaces developed using these design principles could reduce risk of catastrophic failures of blood-contacting medical devices.

Abstract
The poor regenerative capability of stem cell transplantation in the central nervous system limits their therapeutic efficacy in brain injuries. The sustained inflammatory response, lack of structural support, and trophic factors deficiency restrain the integration and long-term survival of stem cells. Instead of exogenous stem cell therapy, here we described the synthesis of nanohybrid hydrogel containing sulfated glycosaminoglycan-based polyelectrolyte complex nanoparticles (PCN) to mimic the brain extracellular matrix and control the delivery of stromal-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) and basic fibroblast factor (bFGF) in response to matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) for recruiting endogenous neural stem cells (NSC) and regulating their cellular fate. Bioactive factors are delivered by electrostatic sequestration on PCN to amplify the signaling of SDF-1α and bFGF to regulate NSC in vitro. In in vivo ischemic stroke model, the factors promoted neurological behavior recovery by enhancing neurogenesis and angiogenesis. These combined strategies may be applied for other tissue regenerations by regulating endogenous progenitors through the delivery of different kinds of glycosaminoglycan-binding molecules.

Abstract
In this feature article we discuss the particular relevance of glycans as components or targets of functionalized nanoparticles (NPs) for potential applications in personalized medicine but we will not enter into descriptions for their preparation. For a more general view covering the preparation and applications of glyconanomaterials the reader is referred to a number of recent reviews. The combination of glyco- and nanotechnology is already providing promising new tools for more personalized solutions to diagnostics and therapy. Current applications relevant to personalized medicine include drug targeting, localized radiation therapy, imaging of glycan expression of cancer cells, point of care diagnostics, cancer vaccines, photodynamic therapy, biosensors, and glycoproteomics.

Abstract
Heparin sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are responsible for the storage and stabilization of numerous growth factors in the extracellular matrix. In this complex native environment, the efficient binding of the growth factors is determined by multivalent, specific and reversible electrostatic interactions between the sulfate groups of HSPGs and the positively charged amino acids of the growth factor. Inspired by this naturally occurring stabilization process, we propose the use of diblock copolymers of heparin and polyethylene glycol (Hep-b-PEG) for protection and delivery of FGF-2. We describe the encapsulation of FGF-2 into spontaneously assembling polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) with Hep-b-PEG in which the Hep block ensures the formation of the PECs, while the PEG moiety confers stability of the generated complex by a stealth corona. Our results demonstrate that by this method we can generate homogeneous complexes (ca. 400nm diameter, PDI 0.29±0.07) with a very high encapsulation efficiency (about 99% encapsulated FGF-2). The release of the growth factor in response to different stimuli such as pH, ionic strength or presence of heparinase was also studied. We report a sustained release of up to 80% during 28days which is not influenced by the presence of heparinase - a result that clearly demonstrates the protective effect of the stealth corona. We also show that FGF-2 remains bioactive as it influences the morphology of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE We describe a biopolymer that uses the way the cells shield a type of proteins (growth factors) to simultaneously assemble, slowly deliver and shield the protein in a "nanocarrier". Growth factors are essential for the regeneration of cartilage, bones by stem cell therapies but have a short life time as when added directly to tissues. Our design makes use of the heparin bioactivity towards such proteins in combination with a polyethylene glycol moiety (PEG) that makes a protecting shell. PEG, is biocompatible and used in approved medicines and countless cosmetic products. The highest novelty is the reaction (oxime click) used to bound these molecules that does not require modification of heparin and allows preservation of its bioactivity.

Abstract
Critical-sized long bone defects suffer from complications including impaired healing and non-union due to substandard healing and integration of devitalized bone allograft. Removal of the periosteum contributes to the limited healing of bone allografts. Restoring a periosteum on bone allografts may provide improved allograft healing and integration. This article reports a polysaccharide-based tissue engineered periosteum that delivers basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) to a critical-sized mouse femur defect. The tissue engineered periosteum was evaluated for improving bone allograft healing and incorporation by locally delivering FGF-2, TGF-β1, and supporting ASCs transplantation. ASCs were successfully delivered and longitudinally tracked at the defect site for at least 7 days post operation with delivered FGF-2 and TGF-β1 showing a mitogenic effect on the ASCs. At 6 weeks post implantation, data showed a non-significant increase in normalized bone callus volume. However, union ratio analysis showed a significant inhibition in allograft incorporation, confirmed by histological analysis, due to loosening of the nanofiber coating from the allograft surface. Ultimately, this investigation shows our tissue engineered periosteum can deliver FGF-2, TGF-β1, and ASCs to a mouse critical-sized femur defect and further optimization may yield improved bone allograft healing. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to examine the formation and properties of chondroitin sulfate (CHON)-based nanoparticles (NPs), namely CHON/chitosan (CHIT), CHON/CHIT/calcitonin (sCT) and CHON/sCT. Both, positively and negatively charged CHON/CHIT NPs have been successfully obtained with properties that were dependent on the polymer mixing ratio, polymer concentration and molecular weight of CHIT. sCT was successfully loaded into CHON/CHIT NPs with efficiency close to 100% and notably high loading (up to 33%). A new type of NPs composed of CHON and sCT (a binary system) has been successfully developed. CHON/sCT NPs offer the advantage of a very high drug loading up to 73%. The particle size of CHON-based NPs increased in PBS, acetate buffer and in HCl solution compared to that in water, but most of them remained in the nano-range even after 24h. The media and composition of the nanocarriers were found to affect the release of sCT.

Abstract
Proteoglycans are proteins with pendant glycosaminoglycan polysaccharide side chains. The method described here enables the preparation of graft copolymers with glycosaminoglycan side chains, which mimic the structure and composition of proteoglycans. By controlling the stoichiometry, graft copolymers can be obtained with a wide range of glycosaminoglycan side-chain densities. The method presented here uses a three-step reaction mechanism to first functionalize a hyaluronic acid backbone, followed by reductive amination to couple the glycosaminoglycan side chain to the backbone, by the reducing end. Proteoglycan mimics like the ones proposed here could be used to study the structure-property relationships of proteoglycans and to introduce the biochemical and biomechanical properties of proteoglycans into biomaterials and therapeutic formulations.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) of tissues is an assembly of insoluble macromolecules that specifically interact with soluble bioactive molecules and regulate their distribution and availability to cells. Recapitulating this ability has been an important target in controlled growth factor delivery strategies for tissue regeneration and requires the design of multifunctional carriers. This review describes the integration of supramolecular interactions on the design of delivery strategies that encompass self-assembling and engineered affinity components to construct advanced biomimetic carriers for growth factor delivery. Several glycan- and peptide-based self-assemblies reported in the literature are highlighted and commented upon. These examples demonstrate how molecular design and chemistry are successfully employed to create versatile multifunctional molecules which self-assemble/disassemble in a precisely predicted manner, thus controlling compartmentalization, transport and delivery. Finally, we discuss whether recent advances in the design and preparation of supramolecular delivery systems have been sufficient to drive real translation towards a clinical impact.

Abstract
Malignant tumors develop multiple mechanisms to impair and escape from antitumor immune responses, of which tumor-associated macrophages that often show immunosuppressive phenotype (M2), play a critical role in tumor-induced immunosuppression. Therefore, strategies that can reverse M2 phenotype and even enhance immune-stimulation function of macrophage would benefit tumor immunotherapy. In this paper, self-assembled glyco-nanoparticles (glyco-NPs), as artificial glycocalyx, have been found to be able to successfully induce the polarization of mouse primary peritoneal macrophages from M2 to inflammatory type (M1). The polarization change was evidenced by the decreased expression of cell surface signaling molecules CD206 and CD23, and the increased expression of CD86. Meanwhile, secretion of cytokines supported this polarization change as well. More importantly, this phenomenon is observed not only in vitro, but also in vivo. As far as we known, this is the first report about macrophage polarization being induced by synthetic nanomaterials. Moreover, preparation, characterization of these glyco-NPs and their interaction with the macrophages are also demonstrated.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS) and chondroitin sulfate (CHS) are natural polymers with demonstrated applicability in drug delivery, while nanoparticles are one of the most explored carriers for transmucosal delivery of biopharmaceuticals. In this work we have prepared CS/CHS nanoparticles and associated for the first time the therapeutic protein insulin. Fluorescein isothiocyanate bovine serum albumin (FITC-BSA) was also used to enable comparison of behaviors regarding differences in molecular weight (5.7 kDa versus 67 kDa). Nanoparticles of approximately 200 nm and positive zeta potential around +20 mV were obtained. These parameters remained stable for up to 1 month at 4 °C. Proteins were associated with efficiencies of more than 50%. The release of FITC-BSA in PBS pH 7.4 was more sustained (50% in 24 h) than that of insulin (85% in 24 h). The biocompatibility of nanoparticles was tested in Calu-3 and A549 cells by means of three different assays. The metabolic assay MTT, the determination of lactate dehydrogenase release, and the quantification of the inflammatory response generated by cell exposure to nanoparticles have indicated an absence of overt toxicity. Overall, the results suggest good indications on the application of CS/CHS nanoparticles in respiratory transmucosal protein delivery, but the set of assays should be widened to clarify obtained results.

Abstract
Due to its severity and increasing epidemiology, arthritis needs no description. There are various forms of arthritis most of which are disabling, very painful, and common. In spite of breakthroughs in the field of drug discovery, there is no cure for arthritis that can eliminate the disease permanently and ease the pain. The present review focuses on some of the most successful drugs in arthritis therapy and their side effects. Potential new targets in arthritis therapy such as interleukin-1β, interleukin-17A, tumor necrosis factor alpha, osteopontin, and several others have been discussed here, which can lead to refinement of current therapeutic modalities. Mechanisms for different forms of arthritis have been discussed along with the molecules that act as potential biomarkers for arthritis. Due to the difficulty in monitoring the disease progression to detect the advanced manifestations of the diseases, drug-induced cytotoxicity, and problems with drug delivery; nanoparticle therapy has gained the attention of the researchers. The unique properties of nanoparticles make them highly attractive for the design of novel therapeutics or diagnostic agents for arthritis. The review also focuses on the recent trends in nanoformulation development used for arthritis therapy. This review is, therefore, important because it describes the relevance and need for more arthritis research, it brings forth a critical discussion of successful drugs in arthritis and analyses the key molecular targets. The review also identifies several knowledge gaps in the published research so far along with the proposal of new ideas and future directions in arthritis therapy.

Abstract
Most research strategies for cartilage tissue engineering use extended culture with complex media loaded with costly GFs (growth factors) to drive tissue assembly and yet they result in the production of cartilage with inferior mechanical and structural properties compared with the natural tissue. Recent evidence suggests that GAGs (glycosaminoglycans) incorporated into tissue engineering scaffolds can sequester and/or activate GFs and thereby more effectively mimic the natural ECM (extracellular matrix). Such approaches may have potential for the improvement of cartilage engineering. However, natural GAGs are structurally complex and heterogeneous, making structure–function relationships hard to determine and clinical translation difficult. Importantly, subfractions of GAGs with specific chain lengths and sulfation patterns have been shown to activate key signalling processes during stem cell differentiation. In addition, recently, GAGs have been bound to synthetic biomaterials, such as electrospun scaffolds and hydrogels, in biologically active conformations, and methods to purify and select affinity-matched GAGs for specific GFs have also been developed. The identification and use of specific GAG moieties to promote chondrogenesis is therefore an exciting new avenue of research. Combining these with synthetic biomaterials may allow a more effective mimicry of the natural ECM, reduction in the need for expensive GFs, and perhaps the deposition of an articular cartilage-like matrix in a clinically relevant manner.
