Ayaz F, Demir D, Bölgen N. Electrospun nanofiber mats caged the mammalian macrophages on their surfaces and prevented their inflammatory responses independent of the fiber diameter.

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

[PMID: 38463294 PMCID: PMC10918653 DOI: 10.1021/acsomega.3c08785] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2023] [Revised: 12/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024]
Abstract
The current assay aimed to fabricate and analyze a potent wound healing structure based on a naringin (Nar)/β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)-loaded chitosan hydrogel. Using the simulation studies, we assessed the interactions among the Nar, β-CD, and the formation of the inclusion complex. Then, the formation of the hydrogel nanocomplex was simulated and evaluated using the in silico methods. The results showed that after optimization of the structures by DMol3 based on DFT-D, the total energies of Nar, GP, CD, and β-CD were calculated at -2100.159, -912.192, -3778.370, and -4273.078 Ha, respectively. The encapsulation energy of Nar on β-CD in the solvent phase was calculated at -93.626 kcal/mol, and the Nar structure was located inside β-CD in solution. The negative interaction energy value for the encapsulation of Nar on β-CD suggests the exothermic adsorption process and a stable structure between Nar and β-CD. Monte Carlo method was applied to obtain adsorption of CS/GP on Nar/β-CD. Its value of the obtained interaction energy was calculated at -1.423 × 103 kcal/mol. The characterization confirmed the formation of a Nar/β-CD inclusion complex. The Zeta potential of the pristine β-CD changed from -4.60 ± 1.1 to -17.60 ± 2.34 mV after interaction with Nar, and the heightened surface negativity can be attributed to the existence of electron-rich naringin molecules, as well as the orientation of the hydroxyl (OH) group of the β-CD toward the surface in an aqueous solution. The porosity of the fabricated hydrogels was in the range of 70-90% and during 14 days around 47.0 ± 3.1% of the pure hydrogel and around 56.4 ± 5.1 of hydrogel nanocomposite was degraded. The MTT assay showed that the hydrogels were biocompatible, and the wound contraction measurement (in an animal model) showed that the closure of the induced wound in the hydrogel nanocomposite treatment was faster than that of the control group (wound without treatment). The results of this study indicate that the developed bioactive wound healing 3D structure, which is composed of a chitosan hydrogel containing a Nar/β-CD inclusion nanocomplex, has potential as an effective material for wound dressing applications.

Abstract
Unraveling the cytotoxicity and cellular uptake of low, medium and high molecular weight polyethylene glycol (PEG) in cells is important for evaluation of therapeutic efficacy and toxicity of PEGylated drug delivery systems. In this study, cellular uptake of PEG600, PEG2K, PEG4K and PEG10K in MCF-7 cells was first studied by an UPLC-MS/MS assay coupled with collision induced dissociation (CID) in source technique. The CID of PEG in source with high values of declustering potentials generates numerous PEG-related product ions. These PEG-related fragment ions can be further broken into specific product ions in the collision cell as alternative ions for detection of PEG. The quantification of PEG was finally performed with the MRM transition (m/z 221.0 → 89.0). The experimental results indicated that the toxicity of PEG600, PEG2K, PEG4K and PEG10K was not significant at concentrations of 5-1200 μg/mL and the amounts of PEG polymers entry into MCF-7 cells at was small. The greenness of the developed analytical methods was also assessed by Analytical Eco-Scale, Analytical Greenness calculator (AGREE) and Green Analytical Procedure Index (GAPI) in this study.

Abstract
Biomaterial scaffolds boost tissue repair and regeneration by providing physical support, delivering biological signals and/or cells, and recruiting endogenous cells to facilitate tissue-material integration and remodeling. Foreign body response (FBR), an innate immune response that occurs immediately after biomaterial implantation, is a critical factor in determining the biological outcomes of biomaterial scaffolds. Electrospinning is of great simplicity and cost-effectiveness to produce nanofiber scaffolds with well-defined physicochemical properties and has been used in a variety of regenerative medicine applications in preclinical trials and clinical practice. A deep understanding of causal factors between material properties and FBR of host tissues is beneficial to the optimal design of electrospun scaffolds with favorable immunomodulatory properties. We herein prepared and characterized three electrospun scaffolds with distinct fiber configurations and investigated their effects on FBR in terms of immune cell-material interactions and host responses. Our results show that electrospun yarn scaffold results in greater cellular immune reactions and elevated FBR inin vivoassessments. Although the yarn scaffold showed aligned fiber bundles, it failed to induce cell elongation of macrophages due to its rough surface and porous grooves between yarns. In contrast, the aligned scaffold showed reduced FBR compared to the yarn scaffold, indicating a smooth surface is also a contributor to the immunomodulatory effects of the aligned scaffold. Our study suggests that balanced porousness and smooth surface of aligned fibers or yarns should be the key design parameters of electrospun scaffolds to modulate host responsein vivo.

Abstract
Apart from structure and composition, morphology plays a significant role in influencing the performance of materials in terms of both bulk and surface behavior. In this work, polylactic acid (PLA) constituted by submicrometric fibers is prepared. Using a modified electrospinning (ES) device to carry out solution blow spinning (SBS), the fibrillar morphology is modified, with the aim to induce variations in the properties of the material. The modification of the ES device consists of the incorporation of a source of pressurized gas (air) and a 3D-printed nozzle of our own design. For this work, the morphology of the PLA submicrometric fibers is modified by varying the rotational speed of the collector in order to understand its influence on different properties and, consequently, on the performance of the material. The rotational speed of a cylindrical collector (250, 500, 1000 and 2000 rpm) is considered as variable for changing the morphology. Morphological study of the materials was performed using scanning electron microscopy and image analysis carried out with ImageJ 1.54f software. Besides a morphology study, structural characterization by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy using attenuated total reflectance of prepared materials is carried out. Finally, the morphology and structure of produced PLA fibrous mats were correlated with the analysis of mechanical properties, wettability behavior and adhesion of DH5-α E. coli bacteria. It is of interest to highlight how small morphological and chemical structure variations can lead to important changes in materials' performance. These changes include, for example, those above 30% in some mechanical parameters and clear variations in bacterial adhesion capacity.

Abstract
In tissue engineering (TE) and regenerative medicine, the accessibility of engineered scaffolds that modulate inflammatory states is extremely necessary. The aim of the current work was to assess the efficacy of metformin (MET) incorporated in PLGA/Collagen nanofibers (Met-PLGA/Col NFs) to modulate RAW264.7 macrophage phenotype from pro-inflammatory status (M1) to anti-inflammatory status (M2). Given this, MET-PLGA/Col NFs were fabricated using an electrospinning technique. Structural characterization such as morphology, chemical and mechanical properties, and drug discharge pattern were assessed. MTT assay test exposed that MET-PLGA/Col NFs remarkably had increased cell survival in comparison with pure PLGA/Collagen NFs and control (p < 0.05) 72 h after incubation. Based on the qPCR assay, a reduction in the expression of iNOS-2 and SOCS3 was found in the cells seeded on MET-PLGA/Col NFs, demonstrating the substantial modulation of the M1 phenotype to the M2 phenotype. Moreover, it was determined a main decrease in the pro-inflammatory cytokines and mediator's expression but the growth factors amount related to anti-inflammatory M2 were meaningfully upregulated. Finally, MET-PLGA/Col NFs possibly will ensure a beneficial potential for effective variation of the macrophage response from an inflammatory phase (M1) to a pro-regenerative (M2) phase.

Abstract
Tissue engineering approaches such as the electrospinning technique can fabricate nanofibrous scaffolds which are widely used for small-diameter vascular grafting. However, foreign body reaction (FBR) and lack of endothelial coverage are still the main cause of graft failure after the implantation of nanofibrous scaffolds. Macrophage-targeting therapeutic strategies have the potential to address these issues. Here, we fabricate a monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1)-loaded coaxial fibrous film with poly(l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLCL/MCP-1). The PLCL/MCP-1 fibrous film can polarize macrophages toward anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages through the sustained release of MCP-1. Meanwhile, these specific functional polarization macrophages can mitigate FBR and promote angiogenesis during the remodeling of implanted fibrous films. These studies indicate that MCP-1-loaded PLCL fibers have a higher potential to modulate macrophage polarity, which provides a new strategy for small-diameter vascular graft designing.

Abstract
Natural killer (NK) cells are innate immune cells with cytotoxic potentials to kill cancerous cells in several mechanisms, which could be implied for cancer therapy. While potent, their antitumor activities specially for solid tumors impaired by inadequate tumor infiltration, suppressive tumor microenvironment, cancer-associated stroma cells, and tumor-supportive immune cells. Therefore, manipulating or reprogramming these barriers by prospective strategies might improve current immunotherapies in the clinic or introduce novel NK-based immunotherapies. NK-based immunotherapy could be developed in monotherapy or in combination with other therapeutic regimens such as oncolytic virus therapy and immune checkpoint blockade, as presented in this review.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The current standard for treating irreversibly damaged dental pulp is root canal therapy, which involves complete removal and debridement of the pulp space and filling with an inert biomaterial. A regenerative approach to treating diseased dental pulp may allow for complete healing of the native tooth structure and enhance the long-term outcome of once-necrotic teeth. The aim of this paper is, therefore, to highlight the current state of dental pulp tissue engineering and immunomodulatory biomaterials properties, identifying exciting opportunities for their synergy in developing next-generation biomaterials-driven technologies. METHODS An overview of the inflammatory process focusing on immune responses of the dental pulp, followed by periapical and periodontal tissue inflammation are elaborated. Then, the most recent advances in treating infection-induced inflammatory oral diseases, focusing on biocompatible materials with immunomodulatory properties are discussed. Of note, we highlight some of the most used modifications in biomaterials' surface, or content/drug incorporation focused on immunomodulation based on an extensive literature search over the last decade. RESULTS We provide the readers with a critical summary of recent advances in immunomodulation related to pulpal, periapical, and periodontal diseases while bringing light to tissue engineering strategies focusing on healing and regenerating multiple tissue types. SIGNIFICANCE Significant advances have been made in developing biomaterials that take advantage of the host's immune system to guide a specific regenerative outcome. Biomaterials that efficiently and predictably modulate cells in the dental pulp complex hold significant clinical promise for improving standards of care compared to endodontic root canal therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Modulation of macrophage polarization is required for effective tissue repair and regenerative therapies. Therapeutic modulation of macrophages from an inflammatory M1 to a fibrotic M2 phenotype could help in diseases, such as chronic wounds, which are stalled in a prolonged and heightened inflammatory stage within the wound healing process. OBJECTIVE This study evaluates the efficiency of a pullulan/gelatin nanofiber scaffold loaded with retinoic acid (RA) and adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) to modulate M1 to M2 anti-inflammatory transition. METHODS Scaffolds were fabricated by electrospinning, and crosslinked using ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE). Exposure of RA and/or ASCs to cultured macrophages have been shown to promote M1 to M2 transition. Pullulan was chosen as a scaffold material due to its ability to quench reactive oxygen species, key signaling molecules that play an important role in the progression of inflammation, as well as for its excellent mechanical properties. Gelatin was chosen as an additional scaffold component due to the presence of cell-binding motifs and its biocompatibility. Scaffold compositions examined were 75:25 and 50:50, pullulan:gelatin. The scaffolds were crosslinked in 1:70 and 1:50 EGDE:EtOH. The scaffold composition was determined via FTIR. For the present study, the 75:25 pullulan:gelatin crosslinked with 1:70 EGDE:EtOH, forming nanofibers 328 ± 47.9 nm (mean ± SD) in diameter, was chosen as the scaffold composition due to its lower degradation and release rate, which allows a sustained delivery of RA. RESULTS The scaffold composition degraded to approximately 80% after 14 days, with approximately 38% of the drug released after 7 days. THP-1 monocytic cells were induced into a M1 macrophage phenotype through stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and gamma interferon (IFN-γ). These M1 macrophages were the exposed to scaffolds loaded with RA and ASCs, to induce differentiation to an M2 phenotype. CONCLUSION Gene expression quantitation by qPCR showed a reduction of M1 biomarkers, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) and interleukin 1β (IL1β), and an increase of M2 biomarker CCL22 after 2 days of exposure, suggesting successful M1 to M2 transition.

Abstract
Before very sensitive current genomics platforms were discovered, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as controllers of gene expression, were thought to be accumulated genetic garbage. The past few years have seen a lot of interest in a large classification of non-coding transcripts with an indeterminate length of more than 200 nucleotides [1]. lncRNAs' association with immunity and disease progression has been revealed by a growing body of experimental research. Only a limited subset of lncRNAs, however, has solid proof of their role. It is also clear that various immune cells express lncRNAs differently. In this review, we concentrated on the role of lncRNA expression in the regulation of immune cell function and response to pathological conditions in macrophages, dendritic cells, natural killer (NK) cells, neutrophils, Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), T cells, and B cells. The innate and adaptive immune response systems may be significantly regulated by lncRNAs, according to emerging research. To discover possible therapeutic targets for the therapy of different diseases, it may be helpful to have a better realization of the molecular mechanisms beyond the role of lncRNAs in the immune response. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate lncRNA expression and comprehend its significance for the immune system.

Hall CA, Potvin DA, Conroy GC. A new candling procedure for thick and opaque eggs and its application to avian conservation management. Zoo Biol 2022; 42:296-307. [PMID: 36070084 DOI: 10.1002/zoo.21730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2022] [Revised: 07/25/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
The ability to monitor developing avian embryos and their associated vascular system via candling enables the application of important reproductive management techniques. Egg candling facilitates the confirmation of egg viability throughout the incubation process and identification of a precise position on a vein for the safe extraction of blood. Blood samples may then be analysed to retrieve vital health and genetic information to assist in conservation management. However, the thick or opaque egg shell characteristics of some avian species prevents the observation of egg contents using traditional candling methods, thus limiting management options. This paper tests a novel method of preparing thick-shelled or opaque eggs so that traditional egg candling and blood extraction methods may be applied. Eggs from captive emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae, Latham 1790) and southern cassowary (Casuarius casuarius johnsonii, Linnaeus 1758) were obtained, and partial fenestration was performed on two areas of shell either before incubation or at ⅓ of incubation. Hatchability and weight loss were examined as a measure of effect of the fenestration process on the developing embryo. Clear observation of vascular development was successful in 97% of viable fenestrated eggs, without affecting hatchability or weight loss. Blood samples were taken from developing embryos and DNA was successfully extracted for proof of concept of this new technique. The ability to observe vascular development and monitor the developing embryo in thick and opaque eggs will significantly improve both in situ and ex situ population management options such as in ovo sexing in species of concern.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Biomaterials, either metallic, ceramic, or polymeric, can be used in medicine as a part of the implants, dialysis membranes, bone scaffolds, or components of artificial organs. Polymeric biomaterials cover a vast range of biomedical applications. The biocompatibility and immunocompatibility of polymeric materials are of fundamental importance for their possible therapeutic uses, as the immune system can intervene in the materials' performance. Therefore, based on application, different routes can be utilized for immunoregulation. AREAS COVERED As different biomaterials can be modulated by different strategies, this study aims to summarize and evaluate the available methods for the immunocompatibility enhancement of more common polymeric biomaterials based on their nature. Different strategies such as surface modification, physical characterization, and drug incorporation are investigated for the immunomodulation of nanoparticles, hydrogels, sponges, and nanofibers. EXPERT OPINION Recently, strategies for triggering appropriate immune responses by functional biomaterials have been highlighted. As most strategies correspond to the physical and surface properties of biomaterials, specific modulation can be conducted for each biomaterial system. Besides, different applications require different modulations of the immune system. In the future, the selection of novel materials and immune regulators can play a role in tuning the immune system for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Hsp90 is a ubiquitous chaperone with important roles in the organization and maturation of client proteins that are involved in the progression and survival of cancer cells. Multiple oncogenic pathways can be affected by inhibition of Hsp90 function through degradation of its client proteins. That makes Hsp90 a therapeutic target for cancer treatment. 17-allylamino-17-demethoxy-geldanamycin (17-AAG) is a potent Hsp90 inhibitor that binds to Hsp90 and inhibits its chaperoning function, which results in the degradation of Hsp90's client proteins. There have been several preclinical studies of 17-AAG as a single agent or in combination with other anticancer agents for a wide range of human cancers. Data from various phases of clinical trials show that 17-AAG can be given safely at biologically active dosages with mild toxicity. Even though 17-AAG has suitable pharmacological potency, its low water solubility and high hepatotoxicity could significantly restrict its clinical use. Nanomaterials-based drug delivery carriers may overcome these drawbacks. In this paper, we review preclinical and clinical research on 17-AAG as a single agent and in combination with other anticancer agents. In addition, we highlight the potential of using nanocarriers and nanocombination therapy to improve therapeutic effects of 17-AAG.
