Cell Biol Int 2024; 48:808-820. [PMID: 38433534 DOI: 10.1002/cbin.12148] [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: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 02/17/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
Bone defects are characterized by a hypoxic environment, which affects bone tissue repair. However, the role of hypoxia in the repair of alveolar bone defects remains unclear. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) are high-quality seed cells for repairing alveolar bone defects, whose behavior changes under hypoxia. However, their mechanism of action is not known and needs to be elucidated. We hypothesized that hypoxia might be beneficial to alveolar bone defect repair and the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs. To test this hypothesis, cobalt chloride (CoCl2) was used to create a hypoxic environment, both in vitro and in vivo. In vitro study, the best osteogenic effect was observed after 48 h of hypoxia in hPDLSCs, and the AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin/eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4e-binding protein 1 (AKT/mTOR/4EBP-1) signaling pathway was significantly upregulated. Inhibition of the AKT/mTOR/4EBP-1 signaling pathway decreased the osteogenic ability of hPDLSCs under hypoxia and hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) expression. The inhibition of HIF-1α also decreased the osteogenic capacity of hPDLSCs under hypoxia without significantly affecting the level of phosphorylation of AKT/mTOR/4EBP-1. In vitro study, Micro-CT and tissue staining results show better bone regeneration in hypoxic group than control group. These results suggested that hypoxia promoted alveolar bone defect repair and osteogenic differentiation of hPDLSCs, probably through AKT/mTOR/4EBP-1/HIF-1α signaling. These findings provided important insights into the regulatory mechanism of hypoxia in hPDLSCs and elucidated the effect of hypoxia on the healing of alveolar bone defects. This study highlighted the importance of physiological oxygen conditions for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogels have gained significant traction in diverse tissue engineering applications through the utilization of 3D printing technology. As an artificial hydrogel possessing remarkable processability, GelMA has emerged as a pioneering material in the advancement of tissue engineering due to its exceptional biocompatibility and degradability. The integration of 3D printing technology facilitates the precise arrangement of cells and hydrogel materials, thereby enabling the creation of in vitro models that simulate artificial tissues suitable for transplantation. Consequently, the potential applications of GelMA in tissue engineering are further expanded. In tissue engineering applications, the mechanical properties of GelMA are often modified to overcome the hydrogel material's inherent mechanical strength limitations. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in enhancing the mechanical properties of GelMA at the monomer, micron, and nano scales. Additionally, the diverse applications of GelMA in soft tissue engineering via 3D printing are emphasized. Furthermore, the potential opportunities and obstacles that GelMA may encounter in the field of tissue engineering are discussed. It is our contention that through ongoing technological progress, GelMA hydrogels with enhanced mechanical strength can be successfully fabricated, leading to the production of superior biological scaffolds with increased efficacy for tissue engineering purposes.

Abstract
The uncontrolled parenchymatic bleeding is still a cause of serious complications in surgery and require new effective hemostatic materials. In recent years, numerous chitosan-based materials have been intensively studied for parenchymatic bleeding control but still require to increased safety and effectiveness. The current research is devoted to new hemostatic materials made of natural polymer (chitosan) developed using electrospinning and microwave-assisted methods. Hemostatic performance, biocompatibility, degradation, and in-vivo effectiveness were studied to assess functional properties of new materials. Chitosan-based agents demonstrated considerable hemostatic performance, moderate biodegradation pace and high biocompatibility in vitro. Using the electrospinning-made chitosan-copolymer significantly improved in vivo biocompatibility and degradation of Chitosan-based agents that provides opportunities for its implementation for visceral bleeding management. Chitosan aerogel could be effectively applied in hemostatic patch development due to high antibacterial activity but it is not recommended for visceral application due to moderate inflammatory effect and slow degradation.

Abstract
The field of biomaterials has seen a strong rejuvenation due to the new potential to modulate immune system in our body. This special class of materials is called "immunomodulatory biomaterials". Generally, three fundamental strategies are followed in the design of immunomodulatory biomaterials: (1) immuno-inert biomaterials, (2) immuno-activating biomaterials, and (3) immuno-tolerant biomaterials. While many applications of immuno-inert biomaterials such as biocompatible medical implants have been already proposed in the past decades, the ability to engineer biological activity into synthetic materials greatly increases the number of their potential uses and improves their performance in more traditional applications. The major focus of researchers is now set on developing immuno-tolerant biomaterials for anti-inflammatory therapies. In this review, we therefore introduce recent developments of immuno-tolerant biomaterials. Especially we introduce an apoptotic cell membrane-inspired polymer and its post-inflammatory effects on immune cells in this article.

Abstract
Inactivated Hemagglutinating Virus of Japan Envelope (HVJ-E) was immobilized on electrospun nanofibers of poly(ε-caprolactone) by layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technique. The precursor LbL film was first constructed with poly-L-lysine and alginic acid via electrostatic interaction. Then the HVJ-E particles were immobilized on the cationic PLL outermost surface. The HVJ-E adsorption was confirmed by surface wettability test, scanning laser microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and confocal laser microscopy. The immobilized HVJ-E particles were released from the nanofibers under physiological condition. In vitro cytotoxic assay demonstrated that the released HVJ-E from nanofibers induced cancer cell deaths. This surface immobilization technique is possible to perform on anti-cancer drug incorporated nanofibers that enables the fibers to show chemotherapy and immunotherapy simultaneously for an effective eradication of tumor cells in vivo.
