Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HAp) polymer composites have gained significant attention due to their applications in bone regeneration and tooth implants. This review examines the synthesis, properties, and applications of Hap, highlighting various manufacturing methods, including wet, dry, hydrothermal, and sol-gel processes. The properties of HAp are influenced by precursor materials and are commonly obtained from natural calcium-rich sources like eggshells, seashells, and fish scales. Composite materials, such as cellulose-hydroxyapatite and gelatin-hydroxyapatite, exhibit promising strength and biocompatibility for bone and tissue replacement. Metallic implants and scaffolds enhance stability, including well-known titanium-based and stainless steel-based implants and ceramic body implants. Biopolymers, like chitosan and alginate, combined with Hap, offer chemical stability and strength for tissue engineering. Collagen, fibrin, and gelatin play crucial roles in mimicking natural bone composition. Various synthesis methods like sol-gel, hydrothermal, and solution casting produce HAp crystals, with potential applications in bone repair and regeneration. Additionally, the use of biowaste materials, like eggshells and snails or seashells, not only supports sustainable HAp production but also reduces environmental impact. This review emphasizes the significance of understanding the properties of calcium-phosphate (Ca-P) compounds and processing methods for scaffold generation, highlighting novel characteristics and mechanisms of biomaterials in bone healing. Comparative studies of these methods in specific applications underscore the versatility and potential of HAp composites in biomedical engineering. Overall, HAp composites offer promising solutions for improving patient outcomes in bone replacement and tissue engineering and advancing medical practices.

Electrospun Gelatin Scaffolds with Incorporated Antibiotics for Skin Wound Healing. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2024; 17:851.

Abstract
Recent advances in regenerative medicine provide encouraging strategies to produce artificial skin substitutes. Gelatin scaffolds are successfully used as wound-dressing materials due to their superior properties, such as biocompatibility and the ability to mimic the extracellular matrix of the surrounding environment. In this study, five gelatin combination solutions were prepared and successfully electrospun using an electrospinning technique. After careful screening, the optimal concentration of the most promising combination was selected for further investigation. The obtained scaffolds were crosslinked with 25% glutaraldehyde vapor and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The incorporation of antibiotic agents such as ciprofloxacin hydrochloride and gentamicin sulfate into gelatin membranes improved the already existing antibacterial properties of antibiotic-free gelatin scaffolds against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Also, the outcomes from the in vivo model study revealed that skin regeneration was significantly accelerated with gelatin/ciprofloxacin scaffold treatment. Moreover, the gelatin nanofibers were found to strongly promote the neoangiogenic process in the in vivo chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane assay. Finally, the combination of gelatin's extracellular matrix and antibacterial agents in the scaffold suggests its potential for effective wound-healing treatments, emphasizing the importance of gelatin scaffolds in tissue engineering.

Abstract
The term periodontal disease is used to define diseases characterised by inflammation and regeneration of the gums, cementum, supporting bone, and periodontal ligament. The conventional treatment involves the combination of scaling, root planning, and surgical approaches which are invasive and can pose certain challenges. Intrapocket administration of nanofibers can be used for overcoming challenges which can help in speeding up the wound repair process and can also be used to promote osteogenesis. To help make drug delivery more effective, nanofibers are an interesting solution. Nanofibers are nanosized 3D structures that can fill the pockets and have excellent mucoadhesion which prolongs their retention time on the target site. Moreover, their structure mimics the natural extracellular matrix which enables nanomaterials to sense local biological conditions and start cellular-level reprogramming to produce the necessary therapeutic efficacy. In this review, the significance of intrapocket administration of nanofibers using recent research for the management of periodontitis has been discussed in detail. Furthermore, we have discussed polymers used for the preparation of nanofibers, nanofiber production methods, and the patents associated with these developments. This comprehensive compilation of data serves as a valuable resource, consolidating recent developments in nanofiber applications for periodontitis management into one accessible platform.

Synergistic photogeneration of nitric oxide and singlet oxygen by nanofiber membranes via blue and/or red-light irradiation: Strong antibacterial action. JOURNAL OF PHOTOCHEMISTRY AND PHOTOBIOLOGY. B, BIOLOGY 2024; 255:112906. [PMID: 38688040 DOI: 10.1016/j.jphotobiol.2024.112906] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2024] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024]
Abstract
New functionalities were added to biocompatible polycaprolactone nanofiber materials through the co-encapsulation of chlorin e6 trimethyl ester (Ce6) photogenerating singlet oxygen and absorbing light both in the blue and red regions, and using 4-(N-(aminopropyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-4-nitrobenzenamine)-7-nitrobenzofurazan, NO-photodonor (NOP), absorbing light in the blue region of visible light. Time-resolved and steady-state luminescence, as well as absorption spectroscopy, were used to monitor both photoactive compounds. The nanofiber material exhibited photogeneration of antibacterial species, specifically nitric oxide and singlet oxygen, upon visible light excitation. This process resulted in the efficient photodynamic inactivation of E. coli not only close to nanofiber material surfaces due to short-lived singlet oxygen, but even at longer distances due to diffusion of longer-lived nitric oxide. Interestingly, nitric oxide was also formed by processes involving photosensitization of Ce6 during irradiation by red light. This is promising for numerous applications, especially in the biomedical field, where strictly local photogeneration of NO and its therapeutic benefits can be applied using excitation in the "human body phototherapeutic window" (600-850 nm). Generally, due to the high permeability of red light, the photogeneration of NO can be achieved in any aqueous environment where direct excitation of NOP to its absorbance in the blue region is limited.

Sci Rep 2024; 14:12339.

Abstract
Poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) has been widely used as biocompatible materials in tissue engineering. They have been used in mammalian cell proliferation to polarization and differentiation. Their modified versions had regulatory activities on mammalian macrophages in vitro. There are also studies suggesting different nanofiber diameters might alter the biological activities of these materials. Based on these cues, we examined the inflammatory activities and adherence properties of mammalian macrophages on electrospun PCL nanofibrous scaffolds formed with PCL having different nanofiber diameters. Our results suggest that macrophages could easily attach and get dispersed on the scaffolds. Macrophages lost their inflammatory cytokine TNF and IL6 production capacity in the presence of LPS when they were incubated on nanofibers. These effects were independent of the mean fiber diameters. Overall, the scaffolds have potential to be used as biocompatible materials to suppress excessive inflammatory reactions during tissue and organ transplantation by caging and suppressing the inflammatory cells.

Abstract
Adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors play a significant role in gene therapy, yet the typical delivery methods, like systemic and local AAV injections, often lead to unintended off-target distribution and tissue damage due to injection. In this study, we propose a localized delivery approach for AAV vectors utilizing electrospun gelatin nanofiber mats, which are cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. The AAV vectors, which encoded a green fluorescent protein (GFP), were loaded onto the mats by immersing them in a solution containing the vectors. The amount of AAV vector loaded onto the mats increased as the vector concentration in the solution increased. The loaded AAV vector was steadily released into the cell culture medium over 3 days. The mats incubated for 3 days also showed the ability to transduce into the cells cultured on them. We evaluated the effectiveness of this delivery system by attaching the mats to mouse livers. GFP expression was visible on the surface of the liver beneath the attached mats, but not in areas in direct contact with the mats. These findings suggest that the attachment of AAV vector-loaded electrospun gelatin nanofiber mats to a target site present a promising solution for localized gene delivery while reducing off-target distribution.

Abstract
This study aimed to fabricate clarithromycin laden Eudragit S-100-based microfibers (MF), microfibers coated film (MB), clarithromycin loaded polyvinyl pyrollidone, hyaluronic acid and sorbitol-based dissolving microneedle patches (CP) and microfibers coated microneedle patches (MP). Morphological and phase analysis of formulations were carried out by scanning electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, respectively. Substrate liquefaction test, in vitro drug release, antimicrobial assay and in vivo antibiofilm studies were performed. MF exhibited a uniform surface and interconnected network. Morphological analysis of CP revealed sharp-tipped and uniform-surfaced microstructures. Clarithromycin was incorporated within MF and CP as amorphous solid. Liquefaction test indicated hyaluronate lyase enzyme responsiveness of hyaluronic acid. Fibers-based formulations (MF, MB and MP) provided an alkaline pH (7.4) responsive drug release; ∼79 %, ∼78 % and ∼81 %, respectively within 2 hours. CP showed a drug release of ∼82 % within 2 hours. MP showed ∼13 % larger inhibitory zone against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) as compared to MB and CP. A relatively rapid eradication of S. aureus in infected wounds and subsequent skin regeneration was observed following MP application as compared to MB and CP indicating its usefulness for the management of microbial biofilms.

Abstract
Since the first report on the pharmacological activity of curcumin in 1949, enormous amounts of research have reported diverse activities for this natural polyphenol found in the dietary spice turmeric. However, curcumin has not yet been used for human application as an approved drug. The clinical translation of curcumin has been hampered due to its low solubility and bioavailability. The improvement in bioavailability and solubility of curcumin can be achieved by its formulation using drug delivery systems. Hydrogels with their biocompatibility and low toxicity effects have shown a substantial impact on the successful formulation of hydrophobic drugs for human clinical trials. This review focuses on hydrogel-based delivery systems for curcumin and describes its applications as anti-cancer as well as wound healing agents.

Abstract
The limited ability of most human tissues to regenerate has necessitated the interventions namely autograft and allograft, both of which carry the limitations of its own. An alternative to such interventions could be the capability to regenerate the tissue in vivo.Regeneration of tissue using the innate capacity of the cells to regenerate is studied under the discipline of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). Besides the cells and growth-controlling bioactives, scaffolds play the central role in TERM which is analogous to the role performed by extracellular matrix (ECM) in the vivo. Mimicking the structure of ECM at the nanoscale is one of the critical attributes demonstrated by nanofibers. This unique feature and its customizable structure to befit different types of tissues make nanofibers a competent candidate for tissue engineering. This review discusses broad range of natural and synthetic biodegradable polymers employed to construct nanofibers as well as biofunctionalization of polymers to improve cellular interaction and tissue integration. Amongst the diverse ways to fabricate nanofibers, electrospinning has been discussed in detail along with advances in this technique. Review also presents a discourse on application of nanofibers for a range of tissues, namely neural, vascular, cartilage, bone, dermal and cardiac.

Abstract
Due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the usage of numerous protective face masks has faced an explosion in demand around the world. Therefore, the need to reduce the environmental pollution caused by disposable single-use face masks has become vital. Recently, alternative raw material solutions have been discussed to eliminate the consumption of single-use plastics. Within this research, gelatin nanofibers were fabricated via centrifugal spinning technique, and filtration media were investigated in terms of air permeability and filtration efficiency. In addition, morphological properties were examined with scanning electron microscopy. Fabricated fibers have a changing average diameter range from 232 to 778 nm, and targeted 95% filtration efficiency was achieved in several compositions. It was proven that biodegradable gelatin nanofibers could be a sustainable alternative for disposable N95 respiratory filters.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a water-swollen, tissue-specific material environment in which biophysiochemical signals are organized and influence cell behaviors. Electrospun nanofibrous substrates have been pursued as platforms for tissue engineering and cell studies that recapitulate features of the native ECM, in particular its fibrous nature. In recent years, progress in the design of electrospun hydrogel systems has demonstrated that molecular design also enables unique studies of cellular behaviors. In comparison to the use of hydrophobic polymeric materials, electrospinning hydrophilic materials that crosslink to form hydrogels offer the potential to achieve the water-swollen, nanofibrous characteristics of endogenous ECM. Although electrospun hydrogels require an additional crosslinking step to stabilize the fibers (allowing fibers to swell with water instead of dissolving) in comparison to their hydrophobic counterparts, researchers have made significant advances in leveraging hydrogel chemistries to incorporate biochemical and dynamic functionalities within the fibers. Consequently, dynamic biophysical and biochemical properties can be engineered into hydrophilic nanofibers that would be difficult to engineer in hydrophobic systems without strategic and sometimes intensive post-processing techniques. This Review describes common methodologies to control biophysical and biochemical properties of both electrospun hydrophobic and hydrogel nanofibers, with an emphasis on highlighting recent progress using hydrogel nanofibers with engineered dynamic complexities to develop culture systems for the study of biological function, dysfunction, development, and regeneration.

Abstract
Fabrication of an appropriate scaffold is the key fundamental step required for a successful tissue engineering (TE). The artificial scaffold as extracellular matrix in TE has noticeable role in the fate of cells in terms of their attachment, proliferation, differentiation, orientation and movement. In addition, chemical and electrical stimulations affect various behaviors of cells such as polarity and functionality. Therefore, the fabrication approach and materials used for the preparation of scaffold should be more considered. Various synthetic and natural polymers have been used extensively for the preparation of scaffolds. The electrically conductive polymers (ECPs), moreover, have been used in combination with other polymers to apply electric fields (EF) during TE. In this context, composites of natural polypeptides and ECPs can be taken into account as context for the preparation of suitable scaffolds with superior biological and physicochemical features. In this review, we overviewed the simultaneous usage of natural polypeptides and ECPs for the fabrication of scaffolds in TE.

Abstract
Impaired wound healing in diabetics usually leads to life-threatening complications. To develop a system for fastening skin wound healing efficiently and safely in diabetics, thermos-sensitive hydrogel containing the nanodrug, loaded in the form of gelatin microspheres (GMs), was designed to deliver curcumin (Cur) as a therapeutic drug. Cur is a naturally existing polyphenolic compound with a broad range of biological functions useful for potential therapies. Because Cur molecule has weakness in both bioavailability and in vivo stability, delivery of Cur requires assistance from other molecules to act as carrier vehicles in a sustained manner for therapeutic use. At first, self-assembly of Cur nanoparticles (CNPs) was done to improve bioavailability. The CNPs were further enclosed into GMs for responding to the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that usually overexpress at diabetic nonhealing wound sites. The GMs containing CNPs were loaded into the thermos-sensitive hydrogel and were finally proved for the capacity of specially induced drug release at the wound bed, which promoted the efficacy in healing the standardized skin wounds in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. Our results indicated that the successfully developed CNP delivery system had the capacity to significantly promote skin wound healing, which suggested that it could have the potential to become a wound dressing with the properties of antioxidants and promotions of cell migration.
