Synergistic large segmental bone repair by 3D printed bionic scaffolds and engineered ADSC nanovesicles: Towards an optimized regenerative microenvironment. Biomaterials 2024; 308:122566. [PMID: 38603824 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122566] [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: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
Achieving sufficient bone regeneration in large segmental defects is challenging, with the structure of bone repair scaffolds and their loaded bioactive substances crucial for modulating the local osteogenic microenvironment. This study utilized digital laser processing (DLP)-based 3D printing technology to successfully fabricate high-precision methacryloylated polycaprolactone (PCLMA) bionic bone scaffold structures. Adipose-derived stem cell-engineered nanovesicles (ADSC-ENs) were uniformly and stably modified onto the bionic scaffold surface using a perfusion device, constructing a conducive microenvironment for tissue regeneration and long bone defect repair through the scaffold's structural design and the vesicles' biological functions. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examination of the scaffold surface confirmed the efficient loading of ADSC-ENs. The material group loaded with vesicles (PCLMA-BAS-ENs) demonstrated good cell compatibility and osteogenic potential when analyzed for the adhesion and osteogenesis of primary rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on the material surface. Tested in a 15 mm critical rabbit radial defect model, the PCLMA-BAS-ENs scaffold facilitated near-complete bone defect repair after 12 weeks. Immunofluorescence and proteomic results indicated that the PCLMA-BAS-ENs scaffold significantly improved the osteogenic microenvironment at the defect site in vivo, promoted angiogenesis, and enhanced the polarization of macrophages towards M2 phenotype, and facilitated the recruitment of BMSCs. Thus, the PCLMA-BAS-ENs scaffold was proven to significantly promote the repair of large segmental bone defects. Overall, this strategy of combining engineered vesicles with highly biomimetic scaffolds to promote large-segment bone tissue regeneration holds great potential in orthopedic and other regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
Understanding the intricate interplay between sensory nerves and bone tissue cells is of paramount significance in the field of bone biology and clinical medicine. The regulatory role of sensory nerves in bone homeostasis offers a novel perspective for the development of targeted therapeutic interventions for a spectrum of bone-related diseases, including osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, and intervertebral disc degeneration. By elucidating the mechanisms through which sensory nerves and their neuropeptides influence the differentiation and function of bone tissue cells, this review aims to shed light on emerging therapeutic targets that harness the neuro-skeletal axis for the treatment and management of debilitating bone disorders. Moreover, a comprehensive understanding of sensory nerve-mediated bone regulation may pave the way for the development of innovative strategies to promote bone health and mitigate the burden of skeletal pathologies in clinical practice.

Abstract
Heterotopic ossification (HO) refers to the formation of pathologic bone in nonskeletal tissues (including muscles, tendons or other soft tissues). HO typically occurs after a severe injury and can occur in any part of the body. HO lesions are highly vascularized. Angiogenesis, which is the formation of new blood vessels, plays an important role in the pathophysiology of HO. Surgical resection is considered an effective treatment for HO. However, it is difficult to completely remove new vessels, which can lead to the recurrence of HO and is often accompanied by significant problems such as intraoperative hemorrhage, demonstrating the important role of angiogenesis in HO. Here, we broadly summarize the current understanding of how angiogenesis contributes to HO; in particular, we focus on new insights into the cellular and signaling mechanisms underlying HO angiogenesis. We also review the development and current challenges associated with antiangiogenic therapy for HO.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders significantly burden patients and society, resulting in high healthcare costs and productivity loss. These disorders are the leading cause of physical disability, and their prevalence is expected to increase as sedentary lifestyles become common and the global population of the elderly increases. Proper innervation is critical to maintaining MSK function, and nerve damage or dysfunction underlies various MSK disorders, underscoring the potential of restoring nerve function in MSK disorder treatment. However, most MSK tissue engineering strategies have overlooked the significance of innervation. This review first expounds upon innervation in the MSK system and its importance in maintaining MSK homeostasis and functions. This will be followed by strategies for engineering MSK tissues that induce post-implantation in situ innervation or are pre-innervated. Subsequently, research progress in modeling MSK disorders using innervated MSK organoids and organs-on-chips (OoCs) is analyzed. Finally, the future development of engineering innervated MSK tissues to treat MSK disorders and recapitulate disease mechanisms is discussed. This review provides valuable insights into the underlying principles, engineering methods, and applications of innervated MSK tissues, paving the way for the development of targeted, efficacious therapies for various MSK conditions.

Abstract
Blood vessels and nerve fibers are distributed throughout the skeletal tissue, which enhance the development and function of each other and have an irreplaceable role in bone formation and remodeling. Despite significant progress in bone tissue engineering, the inadequacy of nerve-vascular network reconstruction remains a major limitation. This is partly due to the difficulty of integrating and regulating multiple tissue types with artificial materials. Thus, understanding the anatomy and underlying coupling mechanisms of blood vessels and nerve fibers within bone to further develop neuro-vascularized bone implant biomaterials is an extremely critical aspect in the field of bone regeneration. Hydrogels have good biocompatibility, controllable mechanical characteristics, and osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties, making them important candidates for research related to neuro-vascularized bone regeneration. This review reports the classification and physicochemical properties of hydrogels, with a focus on the application advantages and status of hydrogels for bone regeneration. The authors also highlight the effect of neurovascular coupling on bone repair and regeneration and the necessity of achieving neuro-vascularized bone regeneration. Finally, the recent progress and design strategies of hydrogel-based biomaterials for neuro-vascularized bone regeneration are discussed.

Abstract
Numerous studies have shown that there are multiple neural activities involved in the process of bone resorption and bone regeneration, and promoting osteogenesis by promoting neural network reconstruction is an effective strategy for repairing critical size bone defects. However, traumatic bone defects often cause activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) in the damaged area, releasing excess catecholamines (CAs), resulting in a decrease in the rate of bone formation. Herein, a 3D-printed scaffold loaded with propranolol (PRN) is proposed to reduce CA concentrations in bone defect areas and promote bone regeneration through drug release. For this purpose, PRN-loaded methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) microspheres were mixed with low-concentration GelMA and perfused into a 3D-printed porous hydroxyapatite (HAp) scaffold. By releasing PRN, which can block β-adrenergic receptors, it hinders the activation of sympathetic nerves and inhibits the release of excess CA by the SNS. At the same time, the composite scaffold recruits bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and promotes the differentiation of BMSCs in the direction of osteoblasts, which effectively promotes bone regeneration in the rabbit femoral condyle defect model. The results of the study showed that the release of PRN from the composite scaffold could effectively hinder the activation of sympathetic nerves and promote bone regeneration, providing a new strategy for the treatment of bone defects.

Abstract
Deferoxamine, an iron chelator used to treat diseases caused by excess iron, has had a Food and Drug Administration-approved status for many years. A large number of studies have confirmed that deferoxamine can reduce inflammatory response and promote angiogenesis. Blood vessels play a crucial role in sustaining vital life by facilitating the delivery of immune cells, oxygen, and nutrients, as well as eliminating waste products generated during cellular metabolism. Dysfunction in blood vessels may contribute significantly to the development of life-threatening diseases. Anti-angiogenesis therapy and pro-angiogenesis/angiogenesis strategies have been frequently recommended for various diseases. Herein, we describe the mechanism by which deferoxamine promotes angiogenesis and summarize its application in chronic wounds, bone repair, and diseases of the respiratory system. Furthermore, we discuss the drug delivery system of deferoxamine for treating various diseases, providing constructive ideas and inspiration for the development of new treatment strategies.

Abstract
Despite considerable advances in artificial bone tissues, the absence of neural network reconstruction in their design often leads to delayed or ineffective bone healing. Hence, we propose a multilayer hierarchical lithium (Li)-doped titanium dioxide structure, constructed through microarc oxidation combined with alkaline heat treatment. This structure can induce the sustained release of Li ions, mimicking the environment of neurogenic osteogenesis characterized by high brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. During in vitro experiments, the structure enhanced the differentiation of Schwann cells (SCs) and the growth of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and mouse embryo osteoblast progenitor cells (MC3T3-E1). Additionally, in a coculture system, the SC-conditioned media markedly increased alkaline phosphatase expression and the formation of calcium nodules, demonstrating the excellent potential of the material for nerve-induced bone regeneration. In an in vivo experiment based on a rat distal femoral lesion model, the structure substantially enhanced bone healing by increasing the density of the neural network in the tissue around the implant. In conclusion, this study elucidates the neuromodulatory pathways involved in bone regeneration, providing a promising method for addressing bone deformities.

Abstract
Despite progress in bone tissue engineering, reconstruction of large bone defects remains an important clinical challenge. Here, a biomaterial designed to recruit bone cells, endothelial cells, and neuronal fibers within the same matrix is developed, enabling bone tissue regeneration. The bioactive matrix is based on modified elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) grafted with laminin-derived adhesion peptides IKVAV and YIGSR, and the SNA15 peptide for retention of hydroxyapatite (HA) particles. The composite matrix shows suitable porosity, interconnectivity, biocompatibility for endothelial cells, and the ability to support neurites outgrowth by sensory neurons. Subcutaneous implantation leads to the formation of osteoid tissue, characterized by the presence of bone cells, vascular networks, and neuronal structures, while minimizing inflammation. Using a rat femoral condyle defect model, longitudinal micro-CT analysis is performed, which demonstrates a significant increase in the volume of mineralized tissue when using the ELP-based matrix compared to empty defects and a commercially available control (Collapat). Furthermore, visible blood vessel networks and nerve fibers are observed within the lesions after a period of two weeks. By incorporating multiple key components that support cell growth, mineralization, and tissue integration, this ELP-based composite matrix provides a holistic and versatile solution to enhance bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Regular physical activity during childhood and adolescence is beneficial to bone development, as evidenced by the ability to increase bone density and peak bone mass by promoting bone formation. AIM To investigate the effects of exercise on bone formation in growing mice and to investigate the underlying mechanisms. METHODS 20 growing mice were randomly divided into two groups: Con group (control group, n = 10) and Ex group (treadmill exercise group, n = 10). Hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemistry, and micro-CT scanning were used to assess the bone formation-related indexes of the mouse femur. Bioinformatics analysis was used to find potential miRNAs targets of long non-coding RNA H19 (lncRNA H19). RT-qPCR and Western Blot were used to confirm potential miRNA target genes of lncRNA H19 and the role of lncRNA H19 in promoting osteogenic differentiation. RESULTS Compared with the Con group, the expression of bone morphogenetic protein 2 was also significantly increased. The micro-CT results showed that 8 wk moderate-intensity treadmill exercise significantly increased bone mineral density, bone volume fraction, and the number of trabeculae, and decreased trabecular segregation in the femur of mice. Inhibition of lncRNA H19 significantly upregulated the expression of miR-149 and suppressed the expression of markers of osteogenic differentiation. In addition, knockdown of lncRNA H19 significantly downregulated the expression of autophagy markers, which is consistent with the results of autophagy-related protein changes detected in mouse femurs by immunofluorescence. CONCLUSION Appropriate treadmill exercise can effectively stimulate bone formation and promote the increase of bone density and bone volume in growing mice, thus enhancing the peak bone mass of mice. The lncRNA H19/miR-149 axis plays an important regulatory role in osteogenic differentiation.

[PMID: 38494082 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2024.03.011] [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: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
Osteoporosis results from the disruption of the balance between bone resorption and bone formation. However, classical anti-osteoporosis drugs exhibit several limitations in clinical applications, such as multiple adverse reactions and poor therapeutic effects. Therefore, there is an urgent need for alternative treatment strategies. With the evolution of immunomodulatory nanomedicine, a variety of nanomaterials have been designed for anti-osteoporosis treatment, offering prospects of minimal adverse reactions, enhanced bone induction, and high osteogenic activity. This review initially provides a brief overview of the fundamental principles of bone reconstruction, current osteogenic clinical methods in osteoporosis treatment, and the significance of osteogenic-angiogenic coupling, laying the groundwork for understanding the pathophysiology and therapeutics of osteoporosis. Subsequently, the article emphasizes the relationship between bone immunity and osteogenesis-angiogenesis coupling and provides a detailed analysis of the application of immunomodulatory nanomedicines in the treatment of osteoporosis, including various types of nanomaterials and their integration with carrier biomaterials. Importantly, we discuss the potential of some emerging strategies in immunomodulatory nanomedicine for osteoporosis treatment. This review introduces the innovative applications of immunomodulatory nanomedicine in the treatment of osteoporosis, aiming to serve as a reference for the application of immunomodulatory nanomedicine strategies in osteoporosis treatment. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Osteoporosis, as one of the most prevalent skeletal disorders, poses a significant threat to public health. To date, conventional anti-osteoporosis strategies have been limited in efficacy and plagued with numerous side effects. Fortunately, with the advancement of research in osteoimmunology and nanomedicine, strategies integrating these two fields show great promise in combating osteoporosis. Nanomedicine with immunomodulatory properties exhibits enhanced efficiency, prolonged effectiveness, and increased safety. However, as of now, there exists no comprehensive review amalgamating immunomodulation with nanomedicine to delineate the progress of immunomodulatory nanomedicine in osteoporosis treatment, as well as the future direction of this strategy.

J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:172. [PMID: 38609899 PMCID: PMC11015668 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02396-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-onset bone dysplasia is a common manifestation of hypophosphatasia (HPP), an autosomal inherited disease caused by ALPL mutation. ALPL ablation induces prototypical premature bone ageing characteristics, resulting in impaired osteogenic differentiation capacity of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMMSCs). As angiogenesis is tightly coupled with osteogenesis, it also plays a necessary role in sustaining bone homeostasis. We have previously observed a decrease in expression of angiogenesis marker gene CD31 in the metaphysis of long bone in Alpl+/- mice. However, the role of ALPL in regulation of angiogenesis in bone has remained largely unknown. METHODS Exosomes derived from Normal and HPP hBMMSCs were isolated and identified by ultracentrifugation, transmission electron microscopy, and nanoparticle size measurement. The effects of ALPL on the angiogenic capacity of hBMMSCs from HPP patients were assessed by immunofluorescence, tube formation, wound healing and migration assay. exo-ELISA and Western Blot were used to evaluate the exosomes secretion of hBMMSCs from HPP, and the protein expression of VEGF, PDGFBB, Angiostatin and Endostatin in exosomes respectively. RESULTS We verified that ALPL ablation resulted in impaired pro-angiogenic capacity of hBMMSCs, accounting for reduced migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells, as the quantities and proteins composition of exosomes varied with ALPL expression. Mechanistically, loss of function of ALPL enhanced ATP release. Additional ATP, in turn, led to markedly elevated level of ATP receptor P2X7, which consequently promoted exosomes secretion, resulting in a decreased capacity to promote angiogenesis. Conversely, inhibition of P2X7 increased the angiogenic induction capacity by preventing excessive release of anti-angiogenic exosomes in ALPL deficient-hBMMSCs. CONCLUSION The ALPL-ATP axis regulates the pro-angiogenic ability of hBMMSCs by controlling exosomes secretion through the P2X7 receptor. Thus, P2X7 may be proved as an effective therapeutic target for accelerating neovascularization in ALPL-deficient bone defects.

Abstract
Background Zhuang-Gu-Fang (ZGF) has been proved to treat osteoporosis in ovariectomized rats by increasing osteogenic related factors Leptin, Ghrelin and Peptide YY(PYY). However, the mechanism of ZGF in the treatment of diabetic osteoporosis (DOP) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the therapeutic effect of ZGF on DOP and its potential molecular mechanism. Methods Using GK rats as models, the pharmacodynamic effects of ZGF on bone loss were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining and micro-computed.tomography (micro-CT). The expression levels of CD31 and endomucin (Emcn) were detected by immunofluorescence to assess the role of ZGF in angiogenic osteogenic coupling. Finally, real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) and Western Blot (WB)were used to detect the expression levels of osteogenic and angiogenesis-related genes and proteins Notch1, Noggin and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Results Administration of ZGF demonstrated a significant mitigation of bone loss attributable to elevated glucose levels. H&E staining and micro-CT showed that ZGF notably improved the integrity of the trabecular and cortical bone microarchitecture. Moreover, ZGF was found to augment the density of type H vessels within the bone tissue, alongside elevating the expression levels of Osterix, a transcription factor pivotal for bone formation. Furthermore, our findings suggest that ZGF facilitates the activation of the Notch1/Noggin/VEGF pathway, indicating a potential mechanism through which ZGF exerts its osteoprotective effects. Conclusion Our results suggest that ZGF potentially facilitates the formation of type H vessels through the Notch1/Noggin/VEGF pathway. This action not only enhances angiogenic-osteogenic coupling but also contributes to the improvement of bone structure and density. Consequently, ZGF emerges as a promising therapeutic agent for the prevention and management of DOP, offering a novel approach by leveraging angiogenesis-dependent osteogenesis.

Abstract
The essential role of the neural network in enhancing bone regeneration has often been overlooked in biomaterial design, leading to delayed or compromised bone healing. Engineered mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-derived exosomes are becoming increasingly recognized as potent cell-free agents for manipulating cellular behavior and improving therapeutic effectiveness. Herein, MSCs are stimulated with nerve growth factor (NGF) to regulate exosomal cargoes to improve neuro-promotive potential and facilitate innervated bone regeneration. In vitro cell experiments showed that the NGF-stimulated MSCs-derived exosomes (N-Exos) obviously improved the cellular function and neurotrophic effects of the neural cells, and consequently, the osteogenic potential of the osteo-reparative cells. Bioinformatic analysis by miRNA sequencing and pathway enrichment revealed that the beneficial effects of N-Exos may partly be ascribed to the NGF-elicited multicomponent exosomal miRNAs and the subsequent regulation and activation of the MAPK and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. On this basis, N-Exos were delivered on the micropores of the 3D-printed hierarchical porous scaffold to accomplish the sustained release profile and extended bioavailability. In a rat model with a distal femoral defect, the N-Exos-functionalized hierarchical porous scaffold significantly induced neurovascular structure formation and innervated bone regeneration. This study provided a feasible strategy to modulate the functional cargoes of MSCs-derived exosomes to acquire desirable neuro-promotive and osteogenic potential. Furthermore, the developed N-Exos-functionalized hierarchical porous scaffold may represent a promising neurovascular-promotive bone reparative scaffold for clinical translation.

Abstract
Surgical resection of bone tumors is the primary approach employed in the treatment of bone cancer. Simultaneously, perioperative interventions, particularly postoperative adjuvant anticancer strategies, play a crucial role in achieving satisfactory therapeutic outcomes. However, the occurrence of postoperative bone tumor recurrence, metastasis, extensive bone defects, and infection are significant risks that can result in unfavorable prognoses or even treatment failure. In recent years, there has been significant progress in the development of biomaterials, leading to the emergence of new treatment options for bone tumor therapy and bone regeneration. This progress report aims to comprehensively analyze the strategic development of unique therapeutic biomaterials with inherent healing properties and bioactive capabilities for bone tissue regeneration. These composite biomaterials, classified into metallic, inorganic non-metallic, and organic types, are thoroughly investigated for their responses to external stimuli such as light or magnetic fields, internal interventions including chemotherapy or catalytic therapy, and combination therapy, as well as their role in bone regeneration. Additionally, an overview of self-healing materials for osteogenesis is provided and their potential applications in combating osteosarcoma and promoting bone formation are explored. Furthermore, the safety concerns of integrated materials and current limitations are addressed, while also discussing the challenges and future prospects.

Abstract
Exosomes, nanoparticles secreted by various cells, composed of a bilayer lipid membrane, and containing bioactive substances such as proteins, nucleic acids, metabolites, etc., have been intensively investigated in tissue engineering owing to their high biocompatibility and versatile biofunction. However, there is still a lack of a high-quality review on bone defect regeneration potentiated by exosomes. In this review, the biogenesis and isolation methods of exosomes are first introduced. More importantly, the engineered exosomes of the current state of knowledge are discussed intensively in this review. Afterward, the biomaterial carriers of exosomes and the mechanisms of bone repair elucidated by compelling evidence are presented. Thus, future perspectives and concerns are revealed to help devise advanced modalities based on exosomes to overcome the challenges of bone regeneration. It is totally believed this review will attract special attention from clinicians and provide promising ideas for their future works.

Abstract
Peripheral neurons terminate at the surface of tendons partly to relay nociceptive pain signals; however, the role of peripheral nerves in tendon injury and repair remains unclear. Here, we show that after Achilles tendon injury in mice, there is new nerve growth near tendon cells that express nerve growth factor (NGF). Conditional deletion of the Ngf gene in either myeloid or mesenchymal mouse cells limited both innervation and tendon repair. Similarly, inhibition of the NGF receptor tropomyosin receptor kinase A (TrkA) abrogated tendon healing in mouse tendon injury. Sural nerve transection blocked the postinjury increase in tendon sensory innervation and the expansion of tendon sheath progenitor cells (TSPCs) expressing tubulin polymerization promoting protein family member 3. Single cell and spatial transcriptomics revealed that disruption of sensory innervation resulted in dysregulated inflammatory signaling and transforming growth factor-β (TGFβ) signaling in injured mouse tendon. Culture of mouse TSPCs with conditioned medium from dorsal root ganglia neuron further supported a role for neuronal mediators and TGFβ signaling in TSPC proliferation. Transcriptomic and histologic analyses of injured human tendon biopsy samples supported a role for innervation and TGFβ signaling in human tendon regeneration. Last, treating mice after tendon injury systemically with a small-molecule partial agonist of TrkA increased neurovascular response, TGFβ signaling, TSPC expansion, and tendon tissue repair. Although further studies should investigate the potential effects of denervation on mechanical loading of tendon, our results suggest that peripheral innervation is critical for the regenerative response after acute tendon injury.

Abstract
The skeleton is a highly innervated organ in which nerve fibers interact with various skeletal cells. Peripheral nerve endings release neurogenic factors and sense skeletal signals, which mediate bone metabolism and skeletal pain. In recent years, bone tissue engineering has increasingly focused on the effects of the nervous system on bone regeneration. Simultaneous regeneration of bone and nerves through the use of materials or by the enhancement of endogenous neurogenic repair signals has been proven to promote functional bone regeneration. Additionally, emerging information on the mechanisms of skeletal interoception and the central nervous system regulation of bone homeostasis provide an opportunity for advancing biomaterials. However, comprehensive reviews of this topic are lacking. Therefore, this review provides an overview of the relationship between nerves and bone regeneration, focusing on tissue engineering applications. We discuss novel regulatory mechanisms and explore innovative approaches based on nerve-bone interactions for bone regeneration. Finally, the challenges and future prospects of this field are briefly discussed.

Abstract
The clinical treatments of bone defects remain a challenge. Hydrogels containing bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are extensively used to bone regeneration because of excellent biocompatibility and hydrophilicity. However, the insufficient osteo-induction capacity of the BMSC-loaded hydrogels limits their clinical applications. In this study, bio-active glass (BG) and BMSCs were combined with gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) to fabricate composite hydrogels via photo-crosslinking, and the regulation of bone regeneration was investigated. In vitro experiments showed that the BG/BMSCs@GelMA hydrogel had excellent cytocompatibility and promoted osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs. Furthermore, the BG/BMSCs@GelMA hydrogel was injected into critical-sized calvarial defects, and the results further confirmed its excellent angiogenetic and bone regeneration capacity. In addition, BG/BMSCs@GelMA promoted the polarization of macrophages towards the M2 phenotype. In summary, this novel composite hydrogel demonstrated remarkable potential for application in bone regeneration due to its immunomodulatory, excellent angiogenetic as well as osteo-induction capacity.

Abstract
Tannic acid (TA) is an organic compound belonging to the tannin group. Like other tannins, it has an affinity for endogenous proteins, including digestive enzymes, which can result in the reduced digestibility and absorption of nutrients. It can also form complexes with mineral components, reducing their absorption. In some cases, this can be beneficial, such as in the case of toxic metals, but sometimes it may have a detrimental effect on the body when it involves essential mineral components like Ca, P, Mg, Na, K, or Fe. Therefore, the impact of TA on bone health should be considered from both perspectives. This relatively short review summarizes the available information and research findings on TA, with a particular focus on its potential impact on bone health. It is worth noting that future research and clinical studies may provide more detailed and precise information on this topic, allowing for a better understanding of the role of TA in maintaining the integrity of the musculoskeletal system. Despite its brevity, this paper represents a valuable contribution to the analysis of the potential benefits and challenges associated with TA in the context of bone health. We anticipate that future research will continue along this important research line, expanding our knowledge of the influence of this compound on the skeletal system and its potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Electrospinning technology, as a novel approach, has been extensively applied in the field of tissue engineering. Nanofiber membranes prepared by electrospinning can effectively mimic the structure and function of natural bone matrix, providing an ideal scaffold for attachment, proliferation, and differentiation of bone cells while inducing osteogenic differentiation and new bone formation. However, it lacks bioactivities such as osteoinduction, angiogenesis and the ability to promote nerve regeneration. In the presence of complex critical bone defects, a single component electrospun membrane often fails to suffice for bone repair needs. Based on this, we prepared a biofunctionalized membrane loaded with Tantalum(Ta)/Whitlockite(WH) nanoparticles (poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL)/Ta/WH) in order to promote high-quality bone defect repair through neurovascular coupling effect. According to the results of in vitro and in vivo experiments, the early Mg2+ release of WH can effectively increase the local nerve and vascular density, and synergize with Tantalum nanoparticles (TaNPs) to create a rich nerve-vascular microenvironment. This allows the PCL/Ta/WH membrane to repair bone defects in multiple dimensions and achieve high-quality repair of bone tissue, providing new solutions for the treatment of critical bone defects in clinical.

Abstract
Type H vessels couple angiogenesis with osteogenesis, while sympathetic cues regulate vascular and skeletal function. The crosstalk between sympathetic nerves and type H vessels in bone remains unclear. Here, we first identify close spatial connections between sympathetic nerves and type H vessels in bone, particularly in metaphysis. Sympathoexcitation, mimicked by isoproterenol (ISO) injection, reduces type H vessels and bone mass. Conversely, beta-2-adrenergic receptor (ADRB2) deficiency maintains type H vessels and bone mass in the physiological condition. In vitro experiments reveal indirect sympathetic modulation of angiogenesis via paracrine effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which alter the transcription of multiple angiogenic genes in endothelial cells (ECs). Furthermore, Notch signaling in ECs underlies sympathoexcitation-regulated type H vessel formation, impacting osteogenesis and bone mass. Finally, propranolol (PRO) inhibits beta-adrenergic activity and protects type H vessels and bone mass against estrogen deficiency. These findings unravel the specialized neurovascular coupling in bone homeostasis and regeneration.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease characterized by abnormal neurovascularization at the osteochondral junctions, the regulatory mechanisms of which remain poorly understood. In the present study, a murine osteoarthritic model with augmented neurovascularization at the osteochondral junction is used to examine this under-evaluated facet of degenerative joint dysfunction. Increased extracellular RNA (exRNA) content is identified in neurovascularized osteoarthritic joints. It is found that the amount of exRNA is positively correlated with the extent of neurovascularization and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In vitro binding assay and molecular docking demonstrate that synthetic RNAs bind to VEGF via electrostatic interactions. The RNA-VEGF complex promotes the migration and function of endothelial progenitor cells and trigeminal ganglion cells. The use of VEGF and VEGFR2 inhibitors significantly inhibits the amplification of the RNA-VEGF complex. Disruption of the RNA-VEGF complex by RNase and polyethyleneimine reduces its in vitro activities, as well as prevents excessive neurovascularization and osteochondral deterioration in vivo. The results of the present study suggest that exRNAs may be potential targets for regulating nerve and blood vessel ingrowth under physiological and pathological joint conditions.

Sun X, Li X, Tian P, Zhao J, Xin H, Ma X, Yuan X. The Sequential and Systemic Administration of BMP-2 and SDF-1α Nanocapsules for Promoting Osteoporotic Fracture Healing. Biomimetics (Basel) 2023; 8:369. [PMID: 37622974 PMCID: PMC10452594 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics8040369] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate the use of the nanocapsule sequential delivery of BMP-2 and SDF-1α through the peripheral circulatory system to promote the healing of osteoporotic fractures. METHODS Based on increased vascular permeability in the early hematoma environment around the fracture and the presence of a large number of matrix metalloproteinase MMPs in the inflammatory environment, we designed MMP-sensitive nanocapsules which were formed viain situ free-radical polymerization on the surface of grow factors with 2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) and the bisacryloylated VPLGVRTK peptide. The antiphagic effect and biological activity of the growth factors for the nanomicrocapsule delivery system were tested by cell experiments. The 36 SD rats with an osteoporotic fracture model were randomly divided into six groups (A, B, C, D, E, and F). In this paper, the nanocapsules loaded with BMP-2 and SDF-1 are represented as n (BMP-2) and n (SDF-1α). In the six groups, the following different combinations of growth factors were injected into the bone defect site on days 1 and 3 after bone defect surgery: in group A, n (SDF-1α) combined with n (SDF-1α); in group B, n (BMP-2) combined with n (BMP-2); in group C, n (SDF-1α) + n (BMP-2) combined with n (SDF-1α) + n (BMP-2); in group D, n (SDF-1α) combined with n (BMP-2); in group E, n (BMP-2) combined with n (SDF-1α); in group F, nanocapsules without growth factor were used as the control group. Micro-CT was used to observe the effect of n(BMP-2) and n(SDF-1α) sequential delivery inearly healing in osteoporotic fractures. Finally, in this study, we evaluated the safety of the nanocapsules delivery system by detecting ectopic osteogenesis and inflammatory responses in animals. RESULTS Nanocapsules have low toxicity and protect the integrity and biological activity of growth factors. The results confirmed that nanocapsules could still be effectively targeted to the fracture site on days 1, 3, and 7 after intravenous administration. Growth factors encapsulated in nanocapsules have better bone repair results than natural growth factors. In particular, groups C and D had the best bone repair results than other groups.In vivo experiments confirmed that nanocapsules did not cause significant ectopic osteogenesis and inflammation. CONCLUSION The results confirmed that the special vascular permeability and inflammatory factor microenvironment of the fracture site could be used to deliver two growth factors with a synergistic effect through venous circulation, which could better promote the healing process of osteoporotic fracture.

Abstract
Sarcopenia and osteoporosis, two degenerative diseases in older patients, have become severe health problems in aging societies. Muscles and bones, the most important components of the motor system, are derived from mesodermal and ectodermal mesenchymal stem cells. The adjacent anatomical relationship between them provides the basic conditions for mechanical and chemical signals, which may contribute to the co-occurrence of sarcopenia and osteoporosis. Identifying the potential common crosstalk genes between them may provide new insights for preventing and treating their development. In this study, DEG analysis, WGCNA, and machine learning algorithms were used to identify the key crosstalk genes of sarcopenia and osteoporosis; this was then validated using independent datasets and clinical samples. Finally, four crosstalk genes (ARHGEF10, PCDH7, CST6, and ROBO3) were identified, and mRNA expression and protein levels of PCDH7 in clinical samples from patients with sarcopenia, with osteoporosis, and with both sarcopenia and osteoporosis were found to be significantly higher than those from patients without sarcopenia or osteoporosis. PCDH7 seems to be a key gene related to the development of both sarcopenia and osteoporosis.

Abstract
Bone metabolism is regulated by osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes, and stem cells. Pathologies such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, and traumatic fractures require effective treatments that favor bone formation and regeneration. Among these, cell therapy based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) has been proposed. MSC are osteoprogenitors, but their regenerative activity depends in part on their paracrine properties. These are mainly mediated by extracellular vesicle (EV) secretion. EV modulates regenerative processes such as inflammation, angiogenesis, cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. Thus, MSC-EV are currently an important tool for the development of cell-free therapies in regenerative medicine. This review describes the current knowledge of the effects of MSC-EV in the different phases of bone regeneration. MSC-EV has been used by intravenous injection, directly or in combination with different types of biomaterials, in preclinical models of bone diseases. They have shown great clinical potential in regenerative medicine applied to bone. These findings should be confirmed through standardization of protocols, a better understanding of the mechanisms of action, and appropriate clinical trials. All that will allow the translation of such cell-free therapy to human clinic applications.

Abstract
To achieve osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis for repairing bone defects, we constructed an anisotropic microspheres-cryogel composite loaded with magnesium l-threonate (MgT). These composites were prepared by the photo-click reaction of norbornene-modified gelatin (GB) in the presence of MgT-loaded microspheres through the bidirectional freezing method. The composites possessed an anisotropic macroporous (around 100 μm) structure and sustained release of bioactive Mg2+, which facilitate vascular ingrowth. These composites could significantly promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, tubular formation of human umbilical vein vessel endothelial cells, and neuronal differentiation in vitro. Additionally, these composites significantly promoted early vascularization and neurogenesis as well as bone regeneration in the rat femoral condyle defects. In conclusion, owing to the anisotropic macroporous microstructure and bioactive MgT, these composites could simultaneously promote bone, blood vessel, and nerve regeneration, showing great potential for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Src homology-2 containing protein tyrosine phosphatase (SHP2), encoded by PTPN11, has been proven to participate in bone-related diseases, such as Noonan syndrome (NS), metachondromatosis and osteoarthritis. However, the mechanisms of SHP2 in bone remodeling and homeostasis maintenance are complex and undemonstrated. The abnormal expression of SHP2 can influence the differentiation and maturation of osteoblasts, osteoclasts and chondrocytes. Meanwhile, SHP2 mutations can act on the immune system, vasculature and nervous system, which in turn affect bone development and remodeling. Signaling pathways regulated by SHP2, such as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), Indian hedgehog (IHH) and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT), are also involved in the proliferation, differentiation and migration of bone functioning cells. This review summarizes the recent advances of SHP2 on osteogenesis-related cells and niche cells in the bone marrow microenvironment. The phenotypic features of SHP2 conditional knockout mice and underlying mechanisms are discussed. The prospective applications of the current agonists or inhibitors that target SHP2 in bone-related diseases are also described. Full clarification of the role of SHP2 in bone remodeling will shed new light on potential treatment for bone related diseases.

Abstract
Introduction: Sensory nerves and vessels are critical for skeletal development and regeneration, but crosstalk between neurovascular network and mineralization are not clear. The aim of this study was to explore neurovascular changes and identify bioactive regulators during in situ osteogenesis. Method: In situ osteogenesis model was performed in male rats following Achilles tenotomy. At 3, 6 and 9 weeks after surgery, mineralization, blood vessels, sensory innervation, and bioactive regulators expression were evaluated via micro-computed tomography, immunofluorescent staining, histology and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analyses. Result: In the process of in situ osteogenesis, the mineral density increased with time, and the locations of minerals, nerves and blood vessels were highly correlated at each time point. The highest density of sensory nerve was observed in the experimental group at the 3rd week, and then gradually decreased with time, but still higher than that in the sham control group. Among many regulatory factors, semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) was highly expressed in experimental model and its expression was temporally sequential and spatially correlated sensory nerve. Conclusion: The present study showes that during in situ osteogenesis, innervation and angiogenesis are highly correlated, and Sema3A is associated with the position and expression of the sensory nerve.
