Abstract
Several years have passed since the medical and scientific communities leaned toward tissue engineering as the most promising field to aid bone diseases and defects resulting from degenerative conditions or trauma. Owing to their histocompatibility and non-immunogenicity, bone grafts, precisely autografts, have long been the gold standard in bone tissue therapies. However, due to issues associated with grafting, especially the surgical risks and soaring prices of the procedures, alternatives are being extensively sought and researched. Fibrous and non-fibrous materials, synthetic substitutes, or cell-based products are just a few examples of research directions explored as potential solutions. A very promising subgroup of these replacements involves hydrogels. Biomaterials resembling the bone extracellular matrix and therefore acting as 3D scaffolds, providing the appropriate mechanical support and basis for cell growth and tissue regeneration. Additional possibility of using various stimuli in the form of growth factors, cells, etc., within the hydrogel structure, extends their use as bioactive agent delivery platforms and acts in favor of their further directed development. The aim of this review is to bring the reader closer to the fascinating subject of hydrogel scaffolds and present the potential of these materials, applied in bone and cartilage tissue engineering and regeneration.

Abstract
In this work we employ molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the first-order-reversal-curve distribution and switching-field distribution of magnetic elastomers. We model magnetic elastomers in a bead-spring approximation with permanently magnetized spherical particles of two different sizes. We find that a different fractional composition of particles affects the magnetic properties of elastomers obtained as a result. We prove that the hysteresis of the elastomer can be attributed to the broad energy landscape with multiple shallow minima and caused by dipolar interactions.

Abstract
Magnetic materials and magnetic stimulation have gained increasing attention in tissue engineering (TE), particularly for bone and nervous tissue reconstruction. Magnetism is utilized to modulate the cell response to environmental factors and lineage specifications, which involve complex mechanisms of action. Magnetic fields and nanoparticles (MNPs) may trigger focal adhesion changes, which are further translated into the reorganization of the cytoskeleton architecture and have an impact on nuclear morphology and positioning through the activation of mechanotransduction pathways. Mechanical stress induced by magnetic stimuli translates into an elongation of cytoskeleton fibers, the activation of linker in the nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton (LINC) complex, and nuclear envelope deformation, and finally leads to the mechanical regulation of chromatin conformational changes. As such, the internalization of MNPs with further magnetic stimulation promotes the evolution of stem cells and neurogenic differentiation, triggering significant changes in global gene expression that are mediated by histone deacetylases (e.g., HDAC 5/11), and the upregulation of noncoding RNAs (e.g., miR-106b~25). Additionally, exposure to a magnetic environment had a positive influence on neurodifferentiation through the modulation of calcium channels' activity and cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation. This review presents an updated and integrated perspective on the molecular mechanisms that govern the cellular response to magnetic cues, with a special focus on neurogenic differentiation and the possible utility of nervous TE, as well as the limitations of using magnetism for these applications.

Abstract
This work is devoted to the theoretical study of the structural and magnetic properties of an ensemble of single-domain interacting magnetic nanoparticles immobilized in a non-magnetic medium. This model is typical for describing magnetically active soft materials, "smart" polymer ferrocomposites, which have been applied in science-intensive industrial and biomedical technologies. It is assumed that the ferrocomposite is obtained by solidification of the carrier medium in a ferrofluid under an external magnetic field, the intensity of which is determined by the Langevin parameter αp; after the solidification of the carrier liquid, the nanoparticles retain the spatial distribution and orientation of their easy magnetization axes. The features of the orientational texture formed in the sample are analyzed depending on the intensity of the magnetic field αp and interparticle dipole-dipole interactions. The magnetization of a textured ferrocomposite in the magnetic field α is also investigated. Our results show that in the case of a co-directional arrangement of the considered fields and if α < αp, the ferrocomposites are magnetized much more efficiently than ferrofluids due to their texture. In the fields α > αp, the ferrocomposite is magnetized less efficiently than the ferrofluid due to the internal magnetic anisotropy of the nanoparticles. The analytical expressions presented here make it possible to predict the magnetization of a ferrocomposite depending on its internal structure and synthesis conditions, which is the theoretical basis for the synthesis of ferrocomposites with a predetermined magnetic response in a given magnetic field.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have unique physical and chemical properties, such as high surface area to volume ratio and size-related magnetism, which are completely different from their bulk materials. Benefiting from the facile synthesis and chemical modification strategies, MNPs have been widely studied for applications in nanomedicine. Herein, we firstly summarized the designs of MNPs from the perspectives of materials and physicochemical properties tailored for biomedical applications. Magnetic particle spectroscopy (MPS), first reported in 2006, has flourished as an independent platform for many biological and biomedical applications. It has been extensively reported as a versatile platform for a variety of bioassays along with the artificially designed MNPs, where the MNPs serve as magnetic nanoprobes to specifically probe target analytes from fluid samples. In this review, the mechanisms and theories of different MPS platforms realizing volumetric- and surface-based bioassays are discussed. Some representative works of MPS platforms for applications such as disease diagnosis, food safety and plant pathology monitoring, drug screening, thrombus maturity assessments are reviewed. At the end of this review, we commented on the rapid growth and booming of MPS-based bioassays in its first 15 years. We also prospected opportunities and challenges that portable MPS devices face in the rapidly growing demand for fast, inexpensive, and easy-to-use biometric techniques.

Abstract
Using the combination of experiment and molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate structural transformations in magnetic elastomers with NdFeB flake-like particles, caused by applied moderate magnetic fields. We explain why and how those transformations depend on whether or not the samples are initially cured by a short-time exposure to a strong field. We find that in a cured sample, a moderate magnetic field leads mainly to in-place flake rotations that are fully reversed once the applied field is switched off. In contrast, in an initially non-cured sample the flakes perform both translation and rotations under the influence of a moderate applied field that lead to the formation of chain-like structures that remain such even if the field is switched off.

Abstract
An efficient and heterogeneous novel magnetic silica-coated picolylaminecopper complex [Fe3O4@SiO2@GP/Picolylamine-Cu(II)] was synthesized, characterized, and employed as a magnetically recoverable nanocatalyst in Biginelli condensation for the preparation of biologically active 3,4-dihydropyrimidinones. Fe3O4@SiO2@GP/Picolylamine-Cu(II) was synthesized easily using chemical attachment of the picolylaminecompound on Fe3O4@SiO2@GP, followed by treatment with copper salt in ethanol under reflux conditions. Fe3O4@SiO2@GP/Picolylamine-Cu(II) was affirmed by various analyses such as Fourier transform infrared, thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, vibrating-sample magnetometry, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, DLS, inductively coupled plasma, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. The resulting catalyst system was successfully used in the Biginelli reaction through a variety of compounds such as aromatic aldehyde, urea, and ethyl acetoacetate under solvent-free conditions or ethylene glycol at 80 °C and yielded the desired products with high conversions with powerful reusability. The current approach was convenient and clean, and only 0.01 g of the catalyst could be used to perform the reaction. The easy work-up procedure, gram-scale synthesis, usage of nontoxic solvent, improved yield, short reaction times, and high durability of the catalyst are several remarkable advantages of the current approach. Also, the Fe3O4@SiO2@GP/Picolylamine-Cu(II) nanocatalyst could be recycled by an external magnet for eight runs with only a significant loss in the product yields.

Abstract
The inclusion of magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) in a hydrogel matrix to produce magnetic hydrogels has broadened the scope of these materials in biomedical research. Embedded MNP offer the possibility to modulate the physical properties of the hydrogel remotely and on demand by applying an external magnetic field. Moreover, they enable permanent changes in the mechanical properties of the hydrogel, as well as alterations in the micro- and macroporosity of its three-dimensional (3D) structure, with the associated potential to induce anisotropy. In this work, the behavior of biocompatible and biodegradable hydrogels made with Fmoc-diphenylalanine (Fmoc-FF) (Fmoc = fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) and Fmoc-arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (Fmoc-RGD) short peptides to which MNP were incorporated was studied in detail with physicochemical, mechanical, and biological methods. The resulting hybrid hydrogels showed enhance mechanical properties and withstood injection without phase disruption. In mice, the hydrogels showed faster and improved self-healing properties compared to their nonmagnetic counterparts. Thanks to these superior physical properties and stability during culture, they can be used as 3D scaffolds for cell growth. Additionally, magnetic short-peptide hydrogels showed good biocompatibility and the absence of toxicity, which together with their enhanced mechanical stability and excellent injectability make them ideal biomaterials for in vivo biomedical applications with minimally invasive surgery. This study presents a new approach to improving the physical and mechanical properties of supramolecular hydrogels by incorporating MNP, which confer structural reinforcement and stability, remote actuation by magnetic fields, and better injectability. Our approach is a potential catalyst for expanding the biomedical applications of supramolecular short-peptide hydrogels.

Abstract
Natural polymeric scaffolds can be used for tissue engineering applications such as cell delivery and cell-free supporting of native tissues. This is because of their desirable properties such as; high biocompatibility, tunable mechanical strength and conductivity, large surface area, porous- and extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicked structures. Specifically, their less toxicity and biocompatibility makes them suitable for several tissue engineering applications. For these reasons, several biopolymeric scaffolds are currently being explored for numerous tissue engineering applications. To date, research on the nature, chemistry, and properties of nanocomposite biopolymers are been reported, while the need for a comprehensive research note on more tissue engineering application of these biopolymers remains. As a result, this present study comprehensively reviews the development of common natural biopolymers as scaffolds for tissue engineering applications such as cartilage tissue engineering, cornea repairs, osteochondral defect repairs, and nerve regeneration. More so, the implications of research findings for further studies are presented, while the impact of research advances on future research and other specific recommendations are added as well.

Abstract
Acellular nerve allografts (ANGs) represent a promising alternative in nerve repair. Our aim is to improve the structural and biomechanical properties of biocompatible Sondell (SD) and Roosens (RS) based ANGs using genipin (GP) as a crosslinker agent ex vivo. The impact of two concentrations of GP (0.10% and 0.25%) on Wistar rat sciatic nerve-derived ANGs was assessed at the histological, biomechanical, and biocompatibility levels. Histology confirmed the differences between SD and RS procedures, but not remarkable changes were induced by GP, which helped to preserve the nerve histological pattern. Tensile test revealed that GP enhanced the biomechanical properties of SD and RS ANGs, being the crosslinked RS ANGs more comparable to the native nerves used as control. The evaluation of the ANGs biocompatibility conducted with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells cultured within the ANGs confirmed a high degree of biocompatibility in all ANGs, especially in RS and RS-GP 0.10% ANGs. Finally, this study demonstrates that the use of GP could be an efficient alternative to improve the biomechanical properties of ANGs with a slight impact on the biocompatibility and histological pattern. For these reasons, we hypothesize that our novel crosslinked ANGs could be a suitable alternative for future in vivo preclinical studies.

Abstract
Novel artificial tissues with potential usefulness in local-based therapies have been generated by tissue engineering using magnetic-responsive nanoparticles (MNPs). In this study, we performed a comprehensive in vivo characterization of bioengineered magnetic fibrin-agarose tissue-like biomaterials. First, in vitro analyses were performed and the cytocompatibility of MNPs was demonstrated. Then, bioartificial tissues were generated and subcutaneously implanted in Wistar rats and their biodistribution, biocompatibility and functionality were analysed at the morphological, histological, haematological and biochemical levels as compared to injected MNPs. Magnetic Resonance Image (MRI), histology and magnetometry confirmed the presence of MNPs restricted to the grafting area after 12 weeks. Histologically, we found a local initial inflammatory response that decreased with time. Structural, ultrastructural, haematological and biochemical analyses of vital organs showed absence of damage or failure. This study demonstrated that the novel magnetic tissue-like biomaterials with improved biomechanical properties fulfil the biosafety and biocompatibility requirements for future clinical use and support the use of these biomaterials as an alternative delivery route for magnetic nanoparticles.

Abstract
Generation of biocompatible and biomimetic tissue-like biomaterials is crucial to ensure the success of engineered substitutes in tissue repair. Natural biomaterials able to mimic the structure and composition of native extracellular matrices typically show better results than synthetic biomaterials. The aim of this study was to perform an in vivo time-course biocompatibility analysis of fibrin-agarose tissue-like hydrogels at the histological, imagenological, hematological, and biochemical levels. Tissue-like hydrogels were produced by a controlled biofabrication process allowing the generation of biomechanically and structurally stable hydrogels. The hydrogels were implanted subcutaneously in 25 male Wistar rats and evaluated after 1, 5, 9, and 12 weeks of in vivo follow-up. At each period of time, animals were analyzed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), hematological analyses, and histology of the local area in which the biomaterials were implanted, along with major vital organs (liver, kidney, spleen, and regional lymph nodes). MRI results showed no local or distal alterations during the whole study period. Hematology and biochemistry showed some fluctuation in blood cells values and in some biochemical markers over the time. However, these parameters were progressively normalized in the framework of the homeostasis process. Histological, histochemical, and ultrastructural analyses showed that implantation of fibrin-agarose scaffolds was followed by a progressive process of cell invasion, synthesis of components of the extracellular matrix (mainly, collagen) and neovascularization. Implanted biomaterials were successfully biodegraded and biointegrated at 12 weeks without any associated histopathological alteration in the implanted zone or distal vital organs. In summary, our in vivo study suggests that fibrin-agarose tissue-like hydrogels could have potential clinical usefulness in engineering applications in terms of biosafety and biocompatibility.

Abstract
Even in the absence of cross-linking, at large enough concentration, long polymer strands have a strong influence on the rheology of aqueous systems. In this work, we show that solutions of medium molecular weight (120 000-190 000 g mol-1) alginate polymer retained a liquid-like behaviour even for concentrations as large as 20% w/v. On the contrary, solutions of alginate polymer of larger (and also polydisperse) molecular weight (up to 600 000 g mol-1) presented a gel-like behaviour already at concentrations of 7% w/v. We dispersed micrometre-sized iron particles at a concentration of 5% v/v in these solutions, which resulted in either stable magnetic fluids or gels, depending on the type of alginate polymer employed (medium or large molecular weight, respectively). These magneto-polymer composites presented a shear-thinning behaviour that allowed injection through a syringe and recovery of the original properties afterwards. More interestingly, application of a magnetic field resulted in the formation of particle clusters elongated along the field direction. The presence of these clusters intensely affected the rheology of the systems, allowing a reversible control of their stiffness. We finally developed theoretical modelling for the prediction of the magnetic-sensitive rheological properties of these magneto-polymer colloids. This article is part of the theme issue 'Patterns in soft and biological matters'.

Abstract
A highly efficient and air-, thermal-, and moisture-stable nickel-based catalyst with excellent magnetic properties supported on silica-coated magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles was successfully synthesized. It was well characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic light scattering (DLS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, vibration sample magnetometry, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, inductively coupled plasma analysis, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm analysis. The Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction between aryl carbamates and/or sulfamates with arylboronic acids was selected to demonstrate the catalytic activity and efficiency of the as-prepared magnetic nanocatalyst. Using the mentioned heterogeneous nanocatalyst in such reactions generated corresponding products in good to excellent yields in which the catalyst could easily be recovered from the reaction mixture with an external magnetic field to reuse directly for the next several cycles without significant loss of its activity.

Abstract
The encapsulation of cells into biopolymer matrices enables the preparation of engineered substitute tissues. Here we report the generation of novel 3D magnetic biomaterials by encapsulation of magnetic nanoparticles and human hyaline chondrocytes within fibrin-agarose hydrogels, with potential use as articular hyaline cartilage-like tissues. By rheological measurements we observed that, (i) the incorporation of magnetic nanoparticles resulted in increased values of the storage and loss moduli for the different times of cell culture; and (ii) the incorporation of human hyaline chondrocytes into nonmagnetic and magnetic fibrin-agarose biomaterials produced a control of their swelling capacity in comparison with acellular nonmagnetic and magnetic fibrin-agarose biomaterials. Interestingly, the in vitro viability and proliferation results showed that the inclusion of magnetic nanoparticles did not affect the cytocompatibility of the biomaterials. What is more, immunohistochemistry showed that the inclusion of magnetic nanoparticles did not negatively affect the expression of type II collagen of the human hyaline chondrocytes. Summarizing, our results suggest that the generation of engineered hyaline cartilage-like tissues by using magnetic fibrin-agarose hydrogels is feasible. The resulting artificial tissues combine a stronger and stable mechanical response, with promising in vitro cytocompatibility. Further research would be required to elucidate if for longer culture times additional features typical of the extracellular matrix of cartilage could be expressed by human hyaline chondrocytes within magnetic fibrin-agarose hydrogels.

Abstract
Nowadays, the high incidence of peripheral nerve injuries and the low success ratio of surgical treatments are driving research to the generation of novel alternatives to repair critical nerve defects. In this sense, tissue engineering has emerged as a possible alternative with special attention to decellularization techniques. Tissue decellularization offers the possibility to obtain a cell-free, natural extracellular matrix (ECM), characterized by an adequate 3D organization and proper molecular composition to repair different tissues or organs, including peripheral nerves. One major problem, however, is that there are no standard quality control methods to evaluate decellularized tissues. Therefore, in this review, a brief description of current strategies for peripheral nerve repair is given, followed by an overview of different decellularization methods used for peripheral nerves. Furthermore, we extensively discuss the available and currently used methods to demonstrate the success of tissue decellularization in terms of the cell removal, preservation of essential ECM molecules and maintenance or modification of biomechanical properties. Finally, orientative guidelines for the evaluation of decellularized peripheral nerve allografts are proposed.

Abstract
Anisotropy is an intrinsic feature of most of the human tissues (e.g. muscle, skin or cartilage). Because of this, there has been an intense effort in the search of methods for the induction of permanent anisotropy in hydrogels intended for biomedical applications. The dispersion of magnetic particles or beads in the hydrogel precursor solution prior to cross-linking, in combination with applied magnetic fields, which gives rise to columnar structures, is one of the most recently proposed approaches for this goal. We have gone even further and, in this paper, we show that it is possible to use magnetic particles as actuators for the alignment of the polymer chains in order to obtain anisotropic hydrogels. Furthermore, we characterize the microstructural arrangement and mechanical properties of the resulting hydrogels. This article is part of a theme issue 'Heterogeneous materials: metastable and non-ergodic internal structures'.

Abstract
In this work, we have studied field-induced aggregation and magnetic separation-realized in a microfluidic channel equipped with a single magnetizable micropillar-of multicore iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) also called "nanoflowers" of an average size of 27 ± 4 nm and covered by either a citrate or polyethylene (PEG) monolayer having a thickness of 0.2⁻1 nm and 3.4⁻7.8 nm, respectively. The thickness of the adsorbed molecular layer is shown to strongly affect the magnetic dipolar coupling parameter because thicker molecular layers result in larger separation distances between nanoparticle metal oxide multicores thus decreasing dipolar magnetic forces between them. This simple geometrical constraint effect leads to the following important features related to the aggregation and magnetic separation processes: (a) Thinner citrate layer on the IONP surface promotes faster and stronger field-induced aggregation resulting in longer and thicker bulk needle-like aggregates as compared to those obtained with a thicker PEG layer; (b) A stronger aggregation of citrated IONPs leads to an enhanced retention capacity of these IONPs by a magnetized micropillar during magnetic separation. However, the capture efficiency Λ at the beginning of the magnetic separation seems to be almost independent of the adsorbed layer thickness. This is explained by the fact that only a small portion of nanoparticles composes bulk aggregates, while the main part of nanoparticles forms chains whose capture efficiency is independent of the adsorbed layer thickness but depends solely on the Mason number Ma. More precisely, the capture efficiency shows a power law trend Λ ∝ M a−n, with n ≈ 1.4⁻1.7 at 300 < Ma < 10⁴, in agreement with a new theoretical model. Besides these fundamental issues, the current work shows that the multicore IONPs with a size of about 30 nm have a good potential for use in biomedical sensor applications where an efficient low-field magnetic separation is required. In these applications, the nanoparticle surface design should be carried out in a close feedback with the magnetic separation study in order to find a compromise between biological functionalities of the adsorbed molecular layer and magnetic separation efficiency.

Abstract
We present the results of the theoretical modeling of the elastic shear properties of a magnetic gel, consisting of soft matrix and embedded, fine magnetizable particles, which are united in linear chain-like structures. We suppose that the composite is placed in a magnetic field, perpendicular to the direction of the sample shear. Our results show that the field can significantly enhance the mechanical rigidity of the soft composite. Theoretical results are in quantitative agreement with the experiments.

Abstract
Microtissues (MT) are currently considered as a promising alternative for the fabrication of natural, 3D biomimetic functional units for the construction of bio-artificial substitutes by tissue engineering (TE). The aim of this study was to evaluate the possibility of generating mesenchymal cell-based MT using human umbilical cord Wharton's jelly stromal cells (WJSC-MT). MT were generated using agarose microchips and evaluated ex vivo during 28 days. Fibroblasts MT (FIB-MT) were used as control. Morphometry, cell viability and metabolism, MT-formation process and ECM synthesis were assessed by phase-contrast microscopy, functional biochemical assays, and histological analyses. Morphometry revealed a time-course compaction process in both MT, but WJSC-MT resulted to be larger than FIB-MT in all days analyzed. Cell viability and functionality evaluation demonstrated that both MT were composed by viable and metabolically active cells, especially the WJSC during 4-21 days ex vivo. Histology showed that WJSC acquired a peripheral pattern and synthesized an extracellular matrix-rich core over the time, what differed from the homogeneous pattern observed in FIB-MT. This study demonstrates the possibility of using WJSC to create MT containing viable and functional cells and abundant extracellular matrix. We hypothesize that WJSC-MT could be a promising alternative in TE protocols. However, future cell differentiation and in vivo studies are still needed to demonstrate the potential usefulness of WJSC-MT in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The generation of biomimetic and biocompatible artificial tissues is the basic research objective for tissue engineering (TE). In this sense, the biofabrication of scaffolds that resemble the tissues' extracellular matrix is an essential aim in this field. Uncompressed and nanostructured fibrin-agarose hydrogels (FAH and NFAH, respectively) have emerged as promising scaffolds in TE, but their structure and biomechanical properties must be improved in order to broaden their TE applications. Here, we generated and characterized novel membrane-like models with increased structural and biomechanical properties based on the chemical cross-linking of FAH and NFAH with genipin (GP at 0.1%, 0.25%, 0.5% and 0.75%). Furthermore, the scaffolds were subjected to rheological (G, G', G″ modulus), ultrastructural and ex vivo biocompatibility analyses. Results showed that all GP concentrations increased the stiffness (G) and especially the elasticity (G') of FAH and NFAH. Ultrastructural analyses demonstrated that GP and nanostructuration of FAH allowed us to control the porosity of FAH. In addition, biological studies revealed that higher concentration of GP (0.75%) started to compromise the cell function and viability. Finally, this study demonstrated the possibility to generate natural and biocompatible FAH and NFAH with improved structural and biomechanical properties by using 0.1%-0.5% of GP. However, further in vivo studies are needed in order to demonstrate the biocompatibility, biodegradability and regeneration capability of these cross-linked scaffolds.

Abstract
We analyze the effect of nanoparticle concentration on the physical properties of magnetic hydrogels consisting of polymer networks of the human fibrin biopolymer with embedded magnetic particles, swollen by a water-based solution. We prepared these magnetic hydrogels by polymerization of mixtures consisting mainly of human plasma and magnetic nanoparticles with OH- functionalization. Microscopic observations revealed that magnetic hydrogels presented some cluster-like knots that were connected by several fibrin threads. By contrast, nonmagnetic hydrogels presented a homogeneous net-like structure with only individual connections between pairs of fibers. The rheological analysis demonstrated that the rigidity modulus, as well as the viscoelastic moduli, increased quadratically with nanoparticle content following a square-like function. Furthermore, we found that time for gel point was shorter in the presence of magnetic nanoparticles. Thus, we can conclude that nanoparticles favor the cross-linking process, serving as nucleation sites for the attachment of the fibrin polymer. Attraction between the positive groups of the fibrinogen, from which the fibrin is polymerized, and the negative OH- groups of the magnetic particle surface qualitatively justifies the positive role of the nanoparticles in the enhancement of the mechanical properties of the magnetic hydrogels. Indeed, we developed a theoretical model that semiquantitatively explains the experimental results by assuming the indirect attraction of the fibrinogen through the attached nanoparticles. Due to this attraction the monomers condense into nuclei of the dense phase and by the end of the polymerization process the nuclei (knots) of the dense phase cross-link the fibrin threads, which enhances their mechanical properties.

Abstract
The generation of biomaterials with adequate biomechanical and structural properties remains a challenge in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Earlier research has shown that nanostructuration and cross-linking techniques improved the biomechanical and structural properties of different biomaterials. Currently, uncompressed and nanostructured fibrin-agarose hydrogels (FAH and NFAH, respectively) have been used successfully in tissue engineering. The aim of this study was to investigate the possibility of improving the structural and biomechanical properties of FAH and NFAH by using 0.25% and 0.5% (v/v) glutaraldehyde (GA) as a cross-linker. These non-cross-linked and cross-linked hydrogels were subjected to structural, rheological and ex vivo biocompatibility analyses. Our results showed that GA cross-linking induced structural changes and significantly improved the rheological properties of FAH and NFAH. In addition, ex vivo biocompatibility analyses demonstrated viable cells in all conditions, although viability was more compromised when 0.5% GA was used. Our study demonstrates that it is possible to control fiber density and hydrogel porosity of FAH and NFAH by using nanostructuration or GA cross-linking techniques. In conclusion, hydrogels cross-linked with 0.25% GA showed promising structural, biochemical and biological properties for use in tissue engineering.

Abstract
The generation of elastic cartilage substitutes for clinical use is still a challenge. In this study, we investigated the possibility of encapsulating human elastic cartilage-derived chondrocytes (HECDC) in biodegradable nanostructured fibrin-agarose hydrogels (NFAH). Viable HECDC from passage 2 were encapsulated in NFAH and maintained in culture conditions. Constructs were harvested for histochemical and immunohistochemical analyses after 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 weeks of development ex vivo. Histological results demonstrated that it is possible to encapsulate HECDC in NFAH, and that HECDC were able to proliferate and form cells clusters expressing S-100 and vimentin. Additionally, histochemical and immunohistochemical analyses of the extracellular matrix (ECM) showed that HECDC synthetized different ECM molecules (type I and II collagen, elastic fibers and proteoglycans) in the NFAH ex vivo. In conclusion, this study suggests that NFAH can be used to generate biodegradable and biologically active constructs for cartilage tissue engineering applications. However, further cell differentiation, biomechanical and in vivo studies are still needed.
