Abstract
Mandibular defect becomes a prevalent maxillofacial disease resulting in mandibular dysfunctions and huge psychological burdens to the patients. Considering the routine presence of oral contaminations and aesthetic restoration of facial structures, the current clinical treatments are however limited, incapable to reconstruct the structural integrity and regeneration, spurring the need for cost-effective mandibular tissue engineering. Hydrogel systems possess great merit for mandibular reconstruction with precise involvement of cells and bioactive factors. In this review, current clinical treatments and distinct mode(s) of mandible formation and pathological resorption are summarized, followed by a review of hydrogel-related mandibular tissue engineering, and an update on the advanced fabrication of hydrogels with improved mechanical property, antibacterial ability, injectable form, and 3D bioprinted hydrogel constructs. The exploration of advanced hydrogel systems will lay down a solid foundation for a bright future with more biocompatible, effective, and personalized treatment in mandibular reconstruction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Considering the chemical and structural properties of dentin, this study was aimed at evaluating the effect of dentin matrix alone or combined with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) on postextraction alveolar bone regeneration. MATERIAL AND METHODS Wistar rats were subjected to tooth extraction with osteotomy and allocated into groups according to the graft inserted: (1) Gelita-Spon®, (2) Bio-Oss®, (3) Dentin, (4) MSC, (5) Dentin/MSC, and (6) Control. Maxillae were analyzed by means of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining, immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis, microcomputed tomography (micro-CT), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Serum levels of calcium and phosphorus were quantified. RESULTS The Bio-Oss group showed less bone than Gelita-Spon and Dentin/MSC; no other significant differences were seen in H&E analysis. The Bio-Oss group showed higher expression of collagen type I compared to the Dentin and Dentin/MSC groups and also higher osteocalcin expression than the Dentin/MSC group. There was a tendency of higher expression of osteopontin in the MSC, Dentin, and Dentin/MSC groups and higher VEGF in the MSC group. On micro-CT analysis, the Bio-Oss and the Dentin/MSC groups exhibited greater bone volume than the Control. Serum calcium and phosphorus levels did not significantly differ between the groups. SEM analysis depicted particles of Bio-Oss and dentin in the respective groups, as well as significant cellularity in the MSC group. CONCLUSION Autogenous nondemineralized dentin is an alternative for alveolar bone grafting, which can be improved by combination with MSC. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This work provides support for the clinical applicability of dentin graft alone or combined with MSC.

Abstract
Objectives Over the past decades, many studies focused on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy for bone regeneration. Due to the efficiency of topical application has been widely dicussed and systemic application was also a feasible way for new bone formation, the aim of this study was to systematically review systemic therapy of MSCs for bone regeneration in pre-clinical studies. Methods The article search was conducted in PubMed and Embase databases. Original research articles that assessed potential effect of systemic application of MSCs for bone regeneration in vivo were selected and evaluated in this review, according to eligibility criteria. The efficacy of MSC systemic treatment was analyzed by random effects meta-analysis, and the outcomes were expressed in standard mean difference (SMD) and its 95% confidence interval. Subgroup analyses were conducted on animal species and gender, MSCs types, frequency and time of injection, and bone diseases. Results Twenty-three articles were selected in this review, of which 21 were included in meta-analysis. The results showed that systemic therapy increased bone mineral density (SMD 3.02 [1.84, 4.20]), bone volume to tissue volume ratio (2.10 [1.16, 3.03]), and the percentage of new bone area (7.03 [2.10, 11.96]). Bone loss caused by systemic disease tended to produce a better response to systemic treatment (p=0.05 in BMD, p=0.03 in BV/TV). Conclusion This study concluded that systemic therapy of MSCs promotes bone regeneration in preclinical experiments. These results provided important information for the systemic application of MSCs as a potential application of bone formation in further animal experiments. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s13287-021-02456-w.

Systems biology analysis of osteogenic differentiation behavior by canine mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow and dental pulp. Sci Rep 2020; 10:20703.

Abstract
Utilization of canine mesenchymal stem cells (cMSCs) for regenerating incorrigible bone diseases has been introduced. However, cMSCs harvested from different sources showed distinct osteogenicity. To clarify this, comparative proteomics-based systems biology analysis was used to analyze osteogenic differentiation behavior by cMSCs harvested from bone marrow and dental pulp. The results illustrated that canine dental pulp stem cells (cDPSCs) contained superior osteogenicity comparing with canine bone marrow-derived MSCs (cBM-MSCs) regarding alkaline phosphatase activity, matrix mineralization, and osteogenic marker expression. Global analyses by proteomics platform showed distinct protein clustering and expression pattern upon an in vitro osteogenic induction between them. Database annotation using Reactome and DAVID revealed contrast and unique expression profile of osteogenesis-related proteins, particularly on signaling pathways, cellular components and processes, and cellular metabolisms. Functional assay and hierarchical clustering for tracking protein dynamic change confirmed that cBM-MSCs required the presences of Wnt, transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta, and bone-morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling, while cDPSCs mainly relied on BMP signaling presentation during osteogenic differentiation in vitro. Therefore, these findings illustrated the comprehensive data regarding an in vitro osteogenic differentiation behavior by cBM-MSCs and cDPSCs which is crucial for further mechanism study and the establishment of cMSC-based bone tissue engineering (BTE) for veterinary practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The current 'gold-standard' treatment of critical-sized bone defects (CSBDs) is autografts; however, they have drawbacks including lack of massive bone source donor site morbidity, incomplete remodeling, and the risk of infection. One potential treatment for treating CSBDs is bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). Previously, there were no studies regarding the use of human umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) for treating BDs. We aim to investigate the use of allogeneic hUC-MSCs for treating CSBDs. METHOD We included subjects who were diagnosed with non-union fracture with CSBDs who agreed to undergo hUC-MSCs implantation. All patients were given allogeneic hUC-MSCs. All MSCs were obtained and cultured using the multiple-harvest explant method. Subjects were evaluated functionally using the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) and radiologically by volume defect reduction. RESULT A total of seven (3 male, 4 female) subjects were recruited for this study. The subjects age ranged from 14 to 62 years. All seven subjects had increased LEFS during the end of the follow-up period, indicating improved functional ability. The follow-up period ranged from 12 to 36 months. One subject had wound dehiscence and infection, and two subjects developed partial union. CONCLUSION Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are a potential new treatment for CSBDs. Additional studies with larger samples and control groups are required to further investigate the safety and efficacy of umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells for treating CSBDs.

Abstract
It has been demonstrated that development of three-dimensional printing technology has supported the researchers and surgeons to apply the bone tissue engineering to the oromandibular reconstruction. In this study, poly caprolactone/beta tricalcium phosphate (PCL/β-TCP) scaffolds were fabricated by multi-head deposition system. The feasibility of the three-dimensionally (3D) -printed PCL/β-TCP scaffolds for mandibular reconstruction was examined on critical-sized defect of canine mandible. The scaffold contained the heterogeneous pore sizes for more effective bone ingrowth and additional wing structures for more stable fixation. They were implanted into the mandibular critical-sized defect of which periosteum was bicortically resected. With eight 1-year-old male beagle dogs, experimental groups were divided into 4 groups (n = 4 defects per group, respectively). (a) no further treatment (control), (b) PCL/β-TCP scaffold alone (PCL/TCP), (c) PCL/β-TCP scaffold with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) (PCL/TCP/BMP2) and (d) PCL/β-TCP scaffold with autogenous bone particles (PCL/TCP/ABP). In micro-computed tomography, PCL/TCP/BMP2 and PCL/TCP/ ABP groups showed significant higher bone volume in comparison to Control and PCL/TCP groups (P < 0.05). In histomorphometric analysis, a trend towards more bone formation was observed in PCL/TCP/BMP2 and PCL/TCP/ABP groups, but the results lacked statistical significance (P = 0.052). Within the limitations of the present study, 3D-printed PCL/β-TCP scaffolds showed acceptable potential for oromandibular reconstruction.

Abstract
Bone has well documented natural healing capacity that normally is sufficient to repair fractures and other common injuries. However, the properties of bone change throughout life, and aging is accompanied by increased incidence of bone diseases and compromised fracture healing capacity, which necessitate effective therapies capable of enhancing bone regeneration. The therapeutic potential of adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for bone repair has been long proposed and examined. Actions of MSCs may include direct differentiation to become bone cells, attraction and recruitment of other cells, or creation of a regenerative environment via production of trophic growth factors. With systemic aging, MSCs also undergo functional decline, which has been well investigated in a number of recent studies. In this review, we first describe the changes in MSCs during aging and discuss how these alterations can affect bone regeneration. We next review current research findings on bone tissue engineering, which is considered a promising and viable therapeutic solution for structural and functional restoration of bone. In particular, the importance of MSCs and bioscaffolds is highlighted. Finally, potential approaches for the prevention of MSC aging and the rejuvenation of aged MSC are discussed.

Development of Severe Combined Immunodeficient (SCID) Pig Models for Translational Cancer Modeling: Future Insights on How Humanized SCID Pigs Can Improve Preclinical Cancer Research. Front Oncol 2018; 8:559. [PMID: 30560086 PMCID: PMC6284365 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2018.00559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2018] [Accepted: 11/09/2018] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Within the last decade there have been several severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) pig models discovered or genetically engineered. The animals have mutations in ARTEMIS, IL2RG, or RAG1/2 genes, or combinations thereof, providing SCID pigs with NK cells, but deficient in T and B cells, or deficient in NK, T, and B cells for research studies. Biocontainment facilities and positive pressure isolators are developed to limit pathogen exposure and prolong the life of SCID pigs. Raising SCID pigs in such facilities allows for completion of long-term studies such as xenotransplantation of human cells. Ectopically injected human cancer cell lines develop into tumors in SCID pigs, thus providing a human-sized in vivo model for evaluating imaging methods to improve cancer detection and therapeutic research and development. Immunocompromised pigs have the potential to be immunologically humanized by xenotransplantation with human hematopoietic stem cells, peripheral blood leukocytes, or fetal tissue. These cells can be introduced through various routes including injection into fetal liver or the intraperitoneal (IP) space, or into piglets by intravenous, IP, and intraosseous administration. The development and maintenance of transplanted human immune cells would be initially (at least) dependent on immune signaling from swine cells. Compared to mice, swine share higher homology in immune related genes with humans. We hypothesize that the SCID pig may be able to support improved engraftment and differentiation of a wide range of human immune cells as compared to equivalent mouse models. Humanization of SCID pigs would thus provide a valuable model system for researchers to study interactions between human tumor and human immune cells. Additionally, as the SCID pig model is further developed, it may be possible to develop patient-derived xenograft models for individualized therapy and drug testing. We thus theorize that the individualized therapeutic approach would be significantly improved with a humanized SCID pig due to similarities in size, metabolism, and physiology. In all, porcine SCID models have significant potential as an excellent preclinical animal model for therapeutic testing.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of modified heterogeneous deproteinized bone combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in the restoration of a validated bone defect model. BMSCs were identified by flow cytometry and multilineage differentiation assay. The structural features of the modified heterogeneous deproteinized bone scaffold and biocompatibility between BMSCs and the scaffold were confirmed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) detection. The cytotoxicity of the modified heterogeneous deproteinized bone scaffolds were detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenytetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. SEM detection proved that modified heterogeneous deproteinized bone scaffold had no negative impact on the proliferation of BMSCs. MTT assay results demonstrated that the scaffold had no apparent cytotoxicity. Biomechanical detection showed that the stiffness and ultimate loading of tibias in the scaffold + BMSCs group were significantly higher than those of the scaffold alone group (P < 0.05) and the control group (P < 0.01). Histological analyses confirmed that the greatest quantity of new bone was generated in the scaffold + BMSCs group, when compared with all other groups, at 8 weeks' post-operation. The bone mineral density (BMD) in the scaffold + BMSC group was significantly higher than that of the scaffold alone group (P < 0.05) and the control group (P < 0.01). Fluorometric analyses confirmed the presence of BMSCs at high concentration within the bone defect areas in the scaffold + BMSCs group at 4 weeks after transplantation. These findings suggest that the modified heterogeneous deproteinized bone scaffold seeded with BMSCs can effectively enhance the restoration of bone defects.

Abstract
Objective: Despite some potential advantages, tissue-engineered constructs have low therapeutic efficacy after transplantation into bone defect sites due to uneven distribution of seed cells, which presents a major obstacle in a clinical setting. The aim of this study was to improve cell distribution within the scaffold, to increase seeding efficiency, to facilitate tissue ingrowth and vascularization of the resultant grafts, and finally to boost the successful rate of transplantation. Approach: A syringe-aided inoculation method was designed to anchor bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) onto the central pores of the chitosan scaffold by repeat positive aspiration. The cell distribution, cell number, vascularization and mineralization at the central region of the tissue-engineered constructs treated by syringe-aided and regular two-side inoculation methods were evaluated side by side using the WST-8, immunofluorescence staining of CD31 and von Kossa staining. Results: The tissue-engineered constructs treated by the syringe-aided inoculation methods exhibited a larger number of BMSCs with uniform distribution, as well as more robust vascularization and mineralization in the central regions when compared with those treated by the two-side inoculation method both in vitro and in vivo. Innovation: This is the first time that the influence of a syringe-aided inoculation method has been evaluated with respect to the vascularization and mineralization of implanted grafts. Conclusion: The syringe-aided inoculation methods used in this study might provide an approach through which to improve cell distribution within the scaffold, facilitate the subsequent tissue ingrowth into the scaffold, and promote the vascularization and mineralization of tissue-engineered grafts.

Abstract
Continued improvements in the understanding and application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have revolutionized tissue engineering. This is particularly true within the field of skeletal regenerative medicine. However, much remains unknown regarding the native origins of MSC, the relative advantages of different MSC populations for bone regeneration, and even the biologic safety of such unpurified, grossly characterized cells. This review will first summarize the initial discovery of MSC, as well as the current and future applications of MSC in bone tissue engineering. Next, the relative advantages and disadvantages of MSC isolated from distinct tissue origins are debated, including the MSC from adipose, bone marrow, and dental pulp, among others. The perivascular origin of MSC is next discussed. Finally, we briefly comment on pluripotent stem cell populations and their possible application in bone tissue engineering. While continually expanding, the field of MSC-based bone tissue engineering and regeneration shows potential to become a clinical reality in the not-so-distant future.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a disease of excess skeletal fragility that results from estrogen loss and aging. Age related bone loss has been attributed to both elevated bone resorption and insufficient bone formation. We developed a hybrid compound, LLP2A-Ale in which LLP2A has high affinity for the α4β1 integrin on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and alendronate has high affinity for bone. When LLP2A-Ale was injected into mice, the compound directed MSCs to both trabecular and cortical bone surfaces and increased bone mass and bone strength. Additional studies are underway to further characterize this hybrid compound, LLP2A-Ale, and how it can be utilized for the treatment of bone loss resulting from hormone deficiency, aging, and inflammation and to augment bone fracture healing. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Stem Cells and Bone".
