Abstract
Cartilage plays an important role in supporting soft tissues, reducing joint friction, and distributing pressure. However, its self-repair capacity is limited due to the lack of blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatic systems. Tissue engineering offers a potential solution to promote cartilage regeneration by combining scaffolds, seed cells, and growth factors. Among these, growth factors play a critical role in regulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and extracellular matrix remodeling. However, their instability, susceptibility to degradation, and potential side effects limit their effectiveness. This paper reviews the main growth factors used in cartilage tissue engineering and their delivery strategies, including affinity-based delivery, carrier-assisted delivery, stimulus-responsive delivery, spatial structure-based delivery, and cell system-based delivery. Each method shows unique advantages in enhancing the delivery efficiency and specificity of growth factors, but also faces challenges such as cost, biocompatibility, and safety. Future research needs to further optimize these strategies to achieve more efficient, safe, and economical delivery of growth factors, thereby advancing the clinical application of cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
The development of various osteogenic biomaterials has not only promoted the development of bone tissue engineering but also provided more possibilities for bone defect repair. However, most previous studies have focused on the interaction of biomaterials on endogenous or exogenous stem cells involved in the bone regeneration process while neglecting the effect of changes in the immune microenvironment of bone defect sites on bone regeneration after biomaterial implantation into the host. With the development of bone immunology, the role of various immune cells, especially macrophages, in bone regeneration has gradually attracted the attention of researchers. An increasing number of studies have begun to target macrophages to better promote bone regeneration by modulating the fate of macrophages in a spatiotemporally ordered manner to mimic the changes in the immune microenvironment of bone defect sites during the natural repair process of bone tissue. Chitosan is one of the most abundant natural polysaccharides in the world. In recent years, various chitosan-based biomaterials have been widely used in macrophage fate modulation and bone regeneration. In this review, we review the interaction between macrophages and scaffold materials, general information about chitosan, the modulation of macrophage fate by chitosan-based biomaterials, and their application in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Titanium and titanium alloys are widely favored materials for orthopedic implants due to their exceptional mechanical properties and biological inertness. The additional benefit of sustained local release of bioactive substances further promotes bone tissue formation, thereby augmenting the osseointegration capacity of titanium implants and attracting increasing attention in bone tissue engineering. Among these bioactive substances, growth factors have shown remarkable osteogenic and angiogenic induction capabilities. Consequently, researchers have developed various physical, chemical, and biological loading techniques to incorporate growth factors into titanium implants, ensuring controlled release kinetics. In contrast to conventional treatment modalities, the localized release of growth factors from functionalized titanium implants not only enhances osseointegration but also reduces the risk of complications. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the types and mechanisms of growth factors, along with a detailed exploration of the methodologies used to load growth factors onto the surface of titanium implants. Moreover, it highlights recent advancements in the application of growth factors to the surface of titanium implants (Scheme 1). Finally, the review discusses current limitations and future prospects for growth factor-functionalized titanium implants. In summary, this paper presents cutting-edge design strategies aimed at enhancing the bone regenerative capacity of growth factor-functionalized titanium implants-a significant advancement in the field of enhanced bone regeneration.

Abstract
Sulfated polysaccharides play important roles in tissue engineering applications because of their high growth factor preservation ability and their native-like biological features. There are different sulfated polysaccharides based on different repeating units in the carbohydrate backbone, the position of the sulfate group, and the sulfation degree of the polysaccharide. These led to various sulfated polymers with different negative charge densities and resultant structure-property relationships. Since numerous reports are presented related to sulfated polysaccharide applications in tissue engineering, it is crucial to review the role of effective physicochemical and biological parameters in their usage; as well as their structure-property relationships. Within this review, we focused on the effect of naturally occurring and synthetic sulfated polysaccharides in tissue engineering applications reported in the last years, highlighting the challenges of the scaffold fabrication process, the position, and the degree of sulfate on biomedical activity. Additionally, we discussed their use in numerous in vitro and in vivo model systems.

Abstract
Rotator cuff regeneration is hindered by compromised vascular architecture, inflammation, and instability of the reconstructed tendon-bone interface. Herein, inspired by the phenomenon of magnetic clasps being connected together by a specific structure, an engineered metallic ion-based hydrogel scaffold was constructed through a bioorthogonal click reaction between (DOPA)4-PEG5-N3 and DBCO-BMP-2 peptides and a photopolymerization process in the hydrogel matrix, exhibiting the potential for angiogenesis, bone regeneration, and modulation of the inflammatory milieu, which aimed at facilitating rotator cuff regeneration. In vitro studies showed that the composite hydrogel scaffold stimulated the angiogenic activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, transforming macrophages from M1 to M2. Moreover, imaging and immunohistochemical analysis of a rat rotator cuff injury models demonstrated that the composite hydrogel could effectively promote regeneration and exhibit remarkable biocompatibility. In summary, this composite hydrogel material established an effective platform for the release of metal ions and clickable peptides, which accelerated the regeneration of rotator cuff injuries and had broad prospects for application in rotator cuff therapy.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) has been commercially approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in bone defects and diseases. BMP-2 promotes osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. In bone tissue engineering, BMP-2 incorporated into scaffolds can be used for stimulating bone regeneration in organoid construction, drug testing platforms, and bone transplants. However, the high dosage and uncontrollable release rate of BMP-2 challenge its clinical application, mainly due to the short circulation half-life of BMP-2, microbial contamination in bone extracellular matrix hydrogel, and the delivery method. Moreover, in clinical translation, the requirement of high doses of BMP-2 for efficacy poses challenges in cost and safety. Based on these, novel strategies should ensure that BMP-2 is delivered precisely to the desired location within the body, regulating the timing of BMP-2 release to coincide with the bone healing process, as well as release BMP-2 in a controlled manner to optimize its therapeutic effect and minimize side effects. This review highlights improvements in bone tissue engineering applying spatiotemporal and controlled BMP-2 delivery, including molecular engineering, biomaterial modification, and synergistic therapy, aiming to provide references for future research and clinical trials.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a well-established method for a variety of acquired and congenital diseases. However, the limited number and sources of therapeutic hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) hinder the further application of HSCT. A BMP-2 triggered in vivo osteo-organoid that is previously reported, serves as a kind of stem cell biogenerator, for obtaining therapeutic HSPCs via activating the residual regenerative capacity of mammals using bioactive biomaterials. Here, it is demonstrated that targeting the homing signaling of HSPCs elevates the proportions and biological functions of HSPCs in the in vivo osteo-organoid. Notably, it is identified that sulfonated chito-oligosaccharide, a degradation product of sulfonated chitosan, specifically elevates the expression of endothelial protein C receptor on HSPCs and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 on macrophages in the in vivo osteo-organoid, ultimately leading to the production of adequate therapeutic HSPCs. This in vivo osteo-organoid approach has the potential to provide an alternative HSPCs source for HSCT and benefits more patients.

Abstract
Diabetes wound are grave and universal complications of diabetes. Owing to poor treatment course, high amputation rate and mortality, diabetes wound treatment and care have become a global challenge. Wound dressings have received much attention due to their ease of use, good therapeutic effect, and low costs. Among them, carbohydrate-based hydrogels with excellent biocompatibility are considered to be the best candidates for wound dressings. Based on this, we first systematically summarized the problems and healing mechanism of diabetes wounds. Next, common treatment methods and wound dressings were discussed, and the application of various carbohydrate-based hydrogels and their corresponding functionalization (antibacterial, antioxidant, autoxidation and bioactive substance delivery) in the treatment of diabetes wounds were emphatically introduced. Ultimately, the future development of carbohydrate-based hydrogel dressings was proposed. This review aims to provide a deeper understanding of wound treatment and theoretical support for the design of hydrogel dressings.

BMP-2 functional polypeptides relieve osteolysis via bi-regulating bone formation and resorption coupled with macrophage polarization. NPJ Regen Med 2023; 8:6.

Abstract
Osteolysis caused by wear debris around the prosthesis is the main reason for aseptic loosening. Extending prosthetic service life is still challenging. In this study, we first synthesized a bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) functional polypeptide (BMP2pp), and evaluated the effects of BMP2pp on macrophage polarization and impaired osteogenesis caused by titanium (Ti) particles in vitro. Then, we delineated the impact of BMP2pp on bone formation and resorption in a mouse calvarial bone osteolysis model induced by Ti particles. The results showed that BMP2pp not only alleviated the Ti-induced inhibition of osteoblastic differentiation in human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPMSCs) but also prevented Ti-induced M1 macrophage polarization and promoted M2 macrophage differentiation in mice. Conditioned medium from BMP2pp-activated macrophages increased the osteogenesis of hPMSCs. The western blot results indicated a significant decrease in the expression of NF-κB inducing kinase (NIK) and phospho-NF-κB p65 in bone marrow-derived macrophages treated with BMP2pp. Furthermore, we clarified the protective effect of BMP2pp on bone formation and the reduction in bone resorption coupled with the immunomodulatory properties of calvarial osteolysis in mice. In summary, BMP2pp ameliorated the Ti-mediated impairment in osteogenic potential of hPMSCs, suppressed the M1 polarization of macrophages by inhibiting the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, and ameliorated Ti-induced bone osteolysis. Our research suggests that BMP2pp may be a potential option for treating prosthetic loosening induced by wear debris from prostheses.

Abstract
Exposure to a growth factor abundant milieu has remarkable regenerative and rejuvenating effects on organ diseases, tissue damage, and regeneration, including skeletal system defects and bone regeneration. Although the introduction of candidate growth factors into relevant fields has been reported, their regenerative effects remain unsatisfactory, mainly because of the experimental challenges with limited types of growth factors, elusive dosage adjustment, and asynchronous stem cell activation with cytokine secretion. Here, an innovative hydrogel recapitulating a growth factor-enriched microenvironment (GEM) for regenerative advantage, is reported. This sulfated hydrogel includes bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), an essential growth factor in osteogenesis, to direct mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation, stimulate cell proliferation, and improve bone formation. The semi-synthetic hydrogel, sulfonated gelatin (S-Gelatin), can amplify BMP-2 signaling in mouse MSCs by enhancing the binding between BMP-2 and BMP-2 type II receptors (BMPR2), which are located on MSC nuclei and activated by the hydrogel. Importantly, the dramatically improved cytokine secretion of MSCs throughout regeneration confirms the growth factor-acquiring potential of S-Gelatin/rhBMP-2 hydrogel, leading to the vascularization enhancement. These findings provide a new strategy to achieve an in situ GEM and accelerated bone regeneration by amplifying the regenerative capacity of rhBMP-2 and capturing endogenous growth factors.

Abstract
Cell therapies and regenerative medicine interventions require an adequate source of therapeutic cells. Here, we demonstrate that constructing in vivo osteo-organoids by implanting bone morphogenetic protein-2-loaded scaffolds into the internal muscle pocket near the femur of mice supports the growth and subsequent harvest of therapeutically useful cells including hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), lymphocytes, and myeloid cells. Profiling of the in vivo osteo-organoid maturation process delineated three stages-fibroproliferation, osteochondral differentiation, and marrow generation-each of which entailed obvious changes in the organoid structure and cell type distribution. The MSCs harvested from the osteochondral differentiation stage mitigated carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced chronic liver fibrosis in mice, while HSPCs and immune cells harvested during the marrow generation stage rapidly and effectively reconstituted the impaired peripheral and solid immune organs of irradiated mice. These findings demonstrate the therapeutic potentials of in vivo osteo-organoid-derived cells in cell therapies.

Abstract
Chitosan and its derivatives are bioactive molecules that have recently been used in various fields, especially in the medical field. The antibacterial, antitumor, and immunomodulatory properties of chitosan have been extensively studied. Chitosan can be used as a drug-delivery carrier in the form of hydrogels, sponges, microspheres, nanoparticles, and thin films to treat diseases, especially those of the skin and soft tissue such as injuries and lesions of the skin, muscles, blood vessels, and nerves. Chitosan can prevent and also treat soft tissue diseases by exerting diverse biological effects such as antibacterial, antitumor, antioxidant, and tissue regeneration effects. Owing to its antitumor properties, chitosan can be used as a targeted therapy to treat soft tissue tumors. Moreover, owing to its antibacterial and antioxidant properties, chitosan can be used in the prevention and treatment of soft tissue infections. Chitosan can stop the bleeding of open wounds by promoting platelet agglutination. It can also promote the regeneration of soft tissues such as the skin, muscles, and nerves. Drug-delivery carriers containing chitosan can be used as wound dressings to promote wound healing. This review summarizes the structure and biological characteristics of chitosan and its derivatives. The recent breakthroughs and future trends of chitosan and its derivatives in therapeutic effects and drug delivery functions including anti-infection, promotion of wound healing, tissue regeneration and anticancer on soft tissue diseases are elaborated.

Abstract
Immune response and new tissue formation are important aspects of tissue repair. However, only a single aspect is generally considered in previous biomedical interventions, and the synergistic effect is unclear. Here, a dual-effect coating with immobilized immunomodulatory metal ions (e.g., Zn2+) and osteoinductive growth factors (e.g., BMP-2 peptide) is designed via mussel adhesion-mediated ion coordination and molecular clicking strategy. Compared to the bare TiO2 group, Zn2+ can increase M2 macrophage recruitment by up to 92.5% in vivo and upregulate the expression of M2 cytokine IL-10 by 84.5%; while the dual-effect of Zn2+ and BMP-2 peptide can increase M2 macrophages recruitment by up to 124.7% in vivo and upregulate the expression of M2 cytokine IL-10 by 171%. These benefits eventually significantly enhance bone-implant mechanical fixation (203.3 N) and new bone ingrowth (82.1%) compared to the bare TiO2 (98.6 N and 45.1%, respectively). Taken together, the dual-effect coating can be utilized to synergistically modulate the osteoimmune microenvironment at the bone-implant interface, enhancing bone regeneration for successful implantation. Immune response and new tissue formation are important aspects of tissue repair but often only one aspect is considered in biomedical interventions. Here, the authors report on the use of a mussel-like surface coating to immobilize immune modulating metal ions and growth factors and demonstrated improved in vivo outcomes.

Abstract
Polyether ether ketone (PEEK)–based biomaterials have been widely used in the field of spine and joint surgery. However, lack of biological activity limits their further clinical application. In this study, we synthesized a bioclickable mussel-derived peptide Azide-DOPA4 as a PEEK surface coating modifier and further combined bone morphogenetic protein 2 functional peptides (BMP2p) with a dibenzylcyclooctyne (DBCO) motif through bio-orthogonal reactions to obtain DOPA4@BMP2p-PEEK. As expected, more BMP2p can be conjugated on PEEK after Azide-DOPA4 coating. The surface roughness and hydrophilicity of DOPA4@BMP2p-PEEK were obviously increased. Then, we optimized the osteogenic capacity of PEEK substrates. In vitro, compared with the BMP2p-coating PEEK material, DOPA4@BMP2p-PEEK showed significantly higher osteogenic induction capability of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. In vivo, we constructed a rat calvarial bone defect model and implanted PEEK materials with a differently modified surface. Micro-computed tomography scanning displayed that the DOPA4@BMP2p-PEEK implant group had significantly higher new bone volume and bone mineral density than the BMP2p-PEEK group. Histological staining of hard tissue further confirmed that the DOPA4@BMP2p-PEEK group revealed a better osseointegrative effect than the BMP2p-PEEK group. More importantly, we also found that DOPA4@BMP2p coating has a synergistic effect with induced Foxp3+ regulatory T (iTreg) cells to promote osteogenesis. In summary, with an easy-to-perform, two-step surface bioengineering approach, the DOPA4@BMP2p-PEEK material reported here displayed excellent biocompatibility and osteogenic functions. It will, moreover, offer insights to engineering surfaces of orthopedic implants.

Bio-clickable mussel-inspired peptides improve titanium-based material osseointegration synergistically with immunopolarization-regulation. Bioact Mater 2021; 9:1-14.

Abstract
Upon the osteoporotic condition, sluggish osteogenesis, excessive bone resorption, and chronic inflammation make the osseointegration of bioinert titanium (Ti) implants with surrounding bone tissues difficult, often lead to prosthesis loosening, bone collapse, and implant failure. In this study, we firstly designed clickable mussel-inspired peptides (DOPA-N3) and grafted them onto the surfaces of Ti materials through robust catechol-TiO2 coordinative interactions. Then, two dibenzylcyclooctyne (DBCO)-capped bioactive peptides RGD and BMP-2 bioactive domain (BMP-2) were clicked onto the DOPA-N3-coated Ti material surfaces via bio-orthogonal reaction. We characterized the surface morphology and biocompatibility of the Ti substrates and optimized the osteogenic capacity of Ti surfaces through adjusting the ideal ratios of BMP-2/RGD at 3:1. In vitro, the dual-functionalized Ti substrates exhibited excellent promotion on adhesion and osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and conspicuous immunopolarization-regulation to shift macrophages to alternative (M2) phenotypes and inhibit inflammation, as well as enhancement of osseointegration and mechanical stability in osteoporotic rats. In summary, our biomimetic surface modification strategy by bio-orthogonal reaction provided a convenient and feasible method to resolve the bioinertia and clinical complications of Ti-based implants, which was conducive to the long-term success of Ti implants, especially in the osteoporotic or inflammatory conditions. A clickable mussel-inspired peptide and two DBCO-capped bioactive peptides for facile decoration of Ti prostheses via robust catechol/TiO2 coordinative interactions and click chemical reaction. Dual functionalized Ti-based surface can improve cell anchoring and osteogenicitity by rationally adjusting the grafting ratio of BMP-2 and RGD peptides. Dual functionalized Ti-based surface synergistically achieve M2 shifting and efficient inflammation inhibition for osseointegration.

Abstract
The functionalization of chitosans is an emerging research area in the design of solutions for a wide range of biomedical applications. In particular, the modification of chitosans to incorporate sulfate groups has generated great interest since they show structural similarity to heparin and heparan sulfates. Most of the biomedical applications of heparan sulfates are derived from their ability to bind different growth factors and other proteins, as through these interactions they can modulate the cellular response. This review aims to summarize the most recent advances in the synthesis, and structural and physicochemical characterization of heparanized chitosan, a remarkably interesting family of polysaccharides that have demonstrated the ability to mimic heparan sulfates as ligands for different proteins, thereby exerting their biological activity by mimicking the function of these glycosaminoglycans.

Acta Biomater 2021; 128:130-142. [PMID: 33866035 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.04.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2020] [Revised: 04/07/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
3D bioprinting has emerged as a promising technology in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine due to its ability to create anatomically complex tissue substitutes. However, it still remains challenging to develop bioactive bioinks that provide appropriate and permissive environments to instruct and guide the regenerative process in vitro and in vivo. In this study alginate sulfate, a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) mimic, was used to functionalize an alginate-gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) interpenetrating network (IPN) bioink to enable the bioprinting of cartilaginous tissues. The inclusion of alginate sulfate had a limited influence on the viscosity, shear-thinning and thixotropic properties of the IPN bioink, enabling high-fidelity bioprinting and supporting mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) viability post-printing. The stiffness of printed IPN constructs greatly exceeded that achieved by printing alginate or GelMA alone, while maintaining resilience and toughness. Furthermore, given the high affinity of alginate sulfate to heparin-binding growth factors, the sulfated IPN bioink supported the sustained release of transforming growth factor-β3 (TGF-β3), providing an environment that supported robust chondrogenesis in vitro, with little evidence of hypertrophy or mineralization over extended culture periods. Such bioprinted constructs also supported chondrogenesis in vivo, with the controlled release of TGF-β3 promoting significantly higher levels of cartilage-specific extracellular matrix deposition. Altogether, these results demonstrate the potential of bioprinting sulfated bioinks as part of a 'single-stage' or 'point-of-care' strategy for regenerating cartilaginous tissues. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study highlights the potential of using sulfated interpenetrating network (IPN) bioink to support the regeneration of phenotypically stable articular cartilage. Construction of interpenetrating networks in the bioink enables unique high-fidelity bioprinting and provides synergistic increases in mechanical properties. The presence of alginate sulfate enables the capacity of high affinity-binding of TGF-β3, which promoted robust chondrogenesis in vitro and in vivo.

Application of biomaterials in periodontal tissue repair and reconstruction in the presence of inflammation under periodontitis through the foreign body response: Recent progress and perspectives. J Biomed Mater Res B Appl Biomater 2021; 110:7-17. [PMID: 34142745 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.b.34891] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2021] [Revised: 06/01/2021] [Accepted: 06/07/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Periodontitis would cause dental tissue damage locally. Biomaterials substantially affect the surrounding immune microenvironment through treatment-oriented local inflammatory remodeling in dental periodontitis. This remodeling process is conducive to wound healing and periodontal tissue regeneration. Recent progress in understanding the foreign body response (FBR) and immune regulation, including cell heterogeneity, and cell-cell and cell-material interactions, has provided new insights into the design criteria for biomaterials applied in treatment of periodontitis. This review discusses recent progress and perspectives in the immune regulation effects of biomaterials to augment or reconstruct soft and hard tissue in an inflammatory microenvironment of periodontitis.

Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that dysfunctional macrophages can cause chronic inflammation and impair tissue regeneration in diabetic wounds. Therefore, improving macrophage behaviors and functions may improve therapeutic outcomes of current treatments in diabetic wounds. Herein, we present a sulfated chitosan (SCS)-doped Collagen type I (Col I/SCS) hydrogel as a candidate for diabetic wound treatments, and assess its efficacy using streptozocin (STZ)-induced diabetic wound model. Results showed that Col I/SCS hydrogel significantly improved wound closure rate, collagen deposition, and revascularization in diabetic wounds. Flow cytometry analysis and immunofluorescent staining analysis showed that the Col I/SCS hydrogel accelerated the resolution of excessive inflammation by reducing the polarization of M1-like macrophages in chronic diabetic wounds. In addition, ELISA analysis revealed that the Col I/SCS hydrogel reduced the production of pro-inflammatory interleukin (IL)-6 and increased the production of anti-inflammatory cytokines including IL-4 and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) during wound healing. Moreover, the Col I/SCS hydrogel enhanced the transdifferentiation of macrophages into fibroblasts, which enhanced the formation of collagen and the extracellular matrix (ECM) in wound tissue. We highlight a potential application of manipulating macrophages behaviors in the pathological microenvironment via materials strategy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Improving the chronic inflammatory microenvironment of diabetic wounds by regulating macrophage behaviors has been of wide concern in recent years. We designed a Col I/SCS hydrogel based on Collagen type I and sulfated chitosan (SCS) without exogenous cells or cytokines, which could significantly improve angiogenesis and resolve chronic inflammation in diabetic wounds, and hence accelerate diabetic wound healing. The Col I/SCS hydrogel could facilitate the polarization of M1-to-M2 macrophages and activate the transdifferentiation of macrophages to fibroblasts. Additionally, the Col I/SCS hydrogel also equilibrated the content of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines. This strategy may afford a new avenue to improve macrophage functions and accelerate diabetic chronic wound healing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of graphene oxide (GO)-carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) hydrogel loaded with interleukin 4 (IL-4) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) on macrophages M2 type differentiation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). METHODS GO solution was mixed with CMC, then the phosphate buffered saline (PBS), IL-4, BMP-2, or IL-4+BMP-2 were added to prepare different GO-CMC hydrogel scaffolds with or without different cytokines under crosslinking agents. The characteristics of pure GO-CMC hydrogel were characterized by gross observation, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the CMC hydrogel was used as control. The sustained release of GO-CMC hydrogels with different cytokines was also tested. Macrophages were isolated and cultured from female Sprague Dawley rats aged 4-5 weeks, and then cultured with GO-CMC hydrogels with and without different cytokines, respectively. CD206 immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the differentiation of macrophages after 24 hours. The 3rd generation of rats BMSCs were cultured with GO-CMC hydrogels with and without different cytokines respectively for osteogenic induction. The early osteogenesis was observed by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining after 10 days, and the late osteogenesis was observed by alizarin red staining after 21 days. RESULTS Generally, GO-CMC hydrogel was brown and translucent. SEM showed that the pore diameter and wall thickness of GO-CMC hydrogel were similar to that of CMC hydrogel, but the inner wall roughness increased. FTIR test showed that CMC polymerized to form hydrogel. In vitro, the sustained release experiments showed that the properties of GO-CMC hydrogels loaded with different cytokines were similar. CD206 immunofluorescence detection showed that GO-CMC hydrogels could induce macrophages differentiation into M2-type. ALP and alizarin red staining showed that GO-CMC hydrogels could induce BMSCs osteogenic differentiation, in which GO-CMC hydrogel loaded with IL-4+BMP-2 showed the most significant effect ( P<0.05). CONCLUSION The GO-CMC hydrogel loaded with IL-4 and BMP-2 can induce macrophages differentiation into M2-type and enhance the ability of BMSCs with osteogenic differentiation in vitro, which provide a new strategy for bone defect repair and immune regulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To analyze and identify the circular RNAs (circRNAs) involved in promoting the osteogenic differentiation of human bone mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) on titanium by surface mechanical attrition treatment (SMAT). METHODS The experimental material was SMAT titanium and the control material was annealed titanium. Cell Counting Kits-8 (CCK-8) was used to detect the proliferation of hBMSCs, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and alizarin red staining were used to detect the osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs on the sample surfaces. The bioinformatics prediction software miwalk3.0 was used to construct competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks by predicting circRNAs with osteogenesis-related messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs). The circRNAs located at the key positions in the networks were selected and analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (QRT-PCR). RESULTS Compared with annealed titanium, SMAT titanium could promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. The total number of predicted circRNAs was 51. Among these, 30 circRNAs and 8 miRNAs constituted 6 ceRNA networks. Circ-LTBP2 was selected for verification. QRT-PCR results showed that the expression levels of hsa_circ_0032599, hsa_circ_0032600 and hsa_circ_0032601 were upregulated in the experimental group compared with those in the control group; the differential expression of hsa_circ_0032600 was the most obvious and statistically significant, with a fold change (FC) = 4.25 ± 1.60, p-values (p) < 0.05.

Abstract
This study aimed to compare the effects of the two type chitosan derivatives, sulfated chitosan (SCS) and phosphorylated chitosan (PCS), coated on poly(d,l-lactide) (PDLLA) membrane via polydopamine, respectively, on vascularization and osteogenesis in vitro. Mouse preosteoblast cells (MC3T3-E1s) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were used as co-cultures system. The effects of two type membranes on calcium deposition, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, vascularization related factors nitric oxide (NO) and angiogenic growth factor vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were assessed. The changes of osteogenic and angiogenic related gene, and protein expression were evaluated too. In fact, SCS modified PDLLA membrane had the highest related gene and protein expression than other PDLLA membranes. Our results demonstrated that the SCS maybe a promising matrix for bone regeneration by co-cultures of ECs and OCs than PCS.

Abstract
Introduction. Several biomaterials are used in periodontal tissue engineering in order to obtain a three-dimensional scaffold, which could enhance the oral bone regeneration. These novel biomaterials, when placed in the affected area, activate a cascade of events, inducing regenerative cellular responses, and replacing the missing tissue. Natural and synthetic polymers can be used alone or in combination with other biomaterials, growth factors, and stem cells. Natural-based polymer chitosan is widely used in periodontal tissue engineering. It presents biodegradability, biocompatibility, and biological renewability properties. It is bacteriostatic and nontoxic and has hemostatic and mucoadhesive capacity. The aim of this systematic review is to obtain an updated overview of the utilization and effectiveness of chitosan-based scaffold (CS-bs) in the alveolar bone regeneration process. Materials and Methods. During database searching (using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and CINAHL), 72 items were found. The title, abstract, and full text of each study were carefully analyzed and only 22 articles were selected. Thirteen articles were excluded based on their title, five after reading the abstract, twenty-six after reading the full text, and six were not considered because of their publication date (prior to 2010). Quality assessment and data extraction were performed in the twelve included randomized controlled trials. Data concerning cell proliferation and viability (CPV), mineralization level (M), and alkaline phosphatase activity (ALPA) were recorded from each article Results. All the included trials tested CS-bs that were combined with other biomaterials (such as hydroxyapatite, alginate, polylactic-co-glycolic acid, polycaprolactone), growth factors (basic fibroblast growth factor, bone morphogenetic protein) and/or stem cells (periodontal ligament stem cells, human jaw bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells). Values about the proliferation of cementoblasts (CB) and periodontal ligament cells (PDLCs), the activity of alkaline phosphatase, and the mineralization level determined by pure chitosan scaffolds resulted in lower than those caused by chitosan-based scaffolds combined with other molecules and biomaterials. Conclusions. A higher periodontal regenerative potential was recorded in the case of CS-based scaffolds combined with other polymeric biomaterials and bioceramics (bio compared to those provided by CS alone. Furthermore, literature demonstrated that the addition of growth factors and stem cells to CS-based scaffolds might improve the biological properties of chitosan.

Abstract
Implant materials applied in bone defect commonly focus on the inducement of bone regeneration and neglect to cure complications including bacterial infection and inflammation, which may result in delayed unions or even amputation. In this study, a microporous silica nanoparticle-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-b-(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) is synthesized for loading DXMS and the ECM-derived peptide (Sequence: Succinic acid-GTPGPQGIAGQRGVV) in order to enhance the osteoblast calcification and relieve related symptoms. Positively charged PDMA blocks endow the nanoparticle with the antimicrobial property. Moreover, the combination of DXMS makes it have the ability of anti-inflammation and promoting calcification formation. Furthermore, incorporation of the peptide leads to a significant improvement of mineralization and alkaline phosphatase expression in the preosteoblast. After intramuscular implantation in mice for four weeks, the results indicate the composite nanoparticle can promote ectopic bone formation. These combined properties make the composite silicon nanoparticle a promising osteogenic drug appropriate for further study in bone repair and related combination therapy.

Abstract
Chitosan (Ch) is used in different biomedical applications to promote tissue repair. However, tissue injury caused by biomaterial implantation lead to the release of danger signals that engage different inflammatory pathways on the host. Different implanted materials activate the inflammasome leading to the modulation of the immune response. Here we have studied how macroscopic biomaterials, Ch scaffolds with different chemical composition: 4% or 15% degree of acetylation (DA) modulate the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome in vitro. For that, we assessed the NLRP3 inflammasome in bone marrow derived mouse macrophages (BMDM) and human macrophages cultured within 3D Ch scaffolds. We found that both Ch scaffolds did not trigger the NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages. Furthermore, BMDMs and human macrophages cultured in both Ch scaffolds presented a reduction in the number of apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activating recruitment domain (ASC) specks and in IL-1β release upon classical NLRP3 inflammasome stimulation. We also found a decrease in proIL-1β in BMDMs after priming with LPS when cultured in Ch scaffolds with DA 4% DA after priming with LPS when compared to Ch scaffolds with 15% DA or to macrophages cultured in cell-culture plates. Our results shows that 3D Ch scaffolds with different DA impair NLRP3 inflammasome priming and activation. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this research work we have assessed the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the macrophage response to 3D chitosan scaffolds with different degrees of acetylation (DA). To our knowledge this is the first work that demonstrates the modulatory capacity of 3D porous chitosan scaffolds in the NLRP3 inflammasome activation, because our results show that Ch scaffolds impair NLRP3 inflammasome assembly in macrophages. Interestingly, our results are in contrast with studies reported in the literature that indicate that chitosan is a powerful activator of the NLRP3 inflammasome in nanoscale chitosan products. Our studies that were performed in large scale chitosan scaffolds, stress out that the process of phagocytosis is pivotal in inflammasome assembly and activation, are rather important since they clearly illustrate the different role of the inflammasome in the biological response to large scale and nanoscale biomaterials.

Mettl3 Regulates Osteogenic Differentiation and Alternative Splicing of Vegfa in Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20030551. [PMID: 30696066 PMCID: PMC6387109 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20030551] [Citation(s) in RCA: 98] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2018] [Revised: 01/20/2019] [Accepted: 01/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can be a useful cell resource for developing biological treatment strategies for bone repair and regeneration, and their therapeutic applications hinge on an understanding of their physiological characteristics. N6-methyl-adenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal chemical modification of mRNAs and has recently been reported to play important roles in cell lineage differentiation and development. However, little is known about the role of m6A modification in the cell differentiation of BMSCs. To address this issue, we investigated the expression of N6-adenosine methyltransferases (Mettl3 and Mettl14) and demethylases (Fto and Alkbh5) and found that Mettl3 was upregulated in BMSCs undergoing osteogenic induction. Furthermore, we knocked down Mettl3 and demonstrated that Mettl3 knockdown decreased the expression of bone formation-related genes, such as Runx2 and Osterix. The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and the formation of mineralized nodules also decreased after Mettl3 knockdown. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that a vast number of genes affected by Mettl3 knockdown were associated with osteogenic differentiation and bone mineralization. Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis revealed that the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT (PI3K-Akt) signaling pathway appeared to be one of the most enriched pathways, and Western blotting results showed that Akt phosphorylation was significantly reduced after Mettl3 knockdown. Mettl3 has been reported to play an important role in regulating alternative splicing of mRNA in previous research. In this study, we found that Mettl3 knockdown not only reduced the expression of Vegfa but also decreased the level of its splice variants, vegfa-164 and vegfa-188, in Mettl3-deficient BMSCs. These findings might contribute to novel progress in understanding the role of epitranscriptomic regulation in the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and provide a promising perspective for new therapeutic strategies for bone regeneration.
