Abstract
Scaffold design is one of the three most essential parts of tissue engineering. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) have been used in clinics and regenerative medicine for years. However, the temporal release of their growth factors limits their efficacy in tissue engineering. In the present study, we planned to synthesize nanofibrous scaffolds with the incorporation of PRP and PRF by electrospinning method to evaluate the effect of the release of PRP and PRF growth factors on osteogenic gene expression, calcification, proliferation, and cell adhesion of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (h-BMSC) as they are part of scaffold structures. Therefore, we combined PRP/PRF, derived from the centrifugation of whole blood, with gelatin and Polycaprolactone (PCL) and produced nanofibrous electrospun PCL/Gel/PRP and PCL/Gel/PRF scaffolds. Three groups of scaffolds were fabricated, and h-BMSCs were seeded on them: (1) PCL/Gel; (2) PCL/Gel/PRP; (3) PCL/Gel/PRF. MTS assay was performed to assess cell proliferation and adhesion, and alizarin red staining confirmed the formation of bone minerals during the experiment. The result indicated that PCL/Gel did not have any better outcomes than the PRP and PRF group in any study variants after the first day of the experiment. PCL/gelatin/PRF was more successful regarding cell proliferation and adhesion. Although PCL/gelatin/PRP showed more promising results on the last day of the experiment in mineralization and osteogenic gene expression, except RUNX2, in which the difference with PCL/gelatin/PRF group was not significant.

Abstract
Osteomyelitis is a devastating disease caused by microbial infection in deep bone tissue. Its high recurrence rate and impaired restoration of bone deficiencies are major challenges in treatment. Microbes have evolved numerous mechanisms to effectively evade host intrinsic and adaptive immune attacks to persistently localize in the host, such as drug-resistant bacteria, biofilms, persister cells, intracellular bacteria, and small colony variants (SCVs). Moreover, microbial-mediated dysregulation of the bone immune microenvironment impedes the bone regeneration process, leading to impaired bone defect repair. Despite advances in surgical strategies and drug applications for the treatment of bone infections within the last decade, challenges remain in clinical management. The development and application of tissue engineering materials have provided new strategies for the treatment of bone infections, but a comprehensive review of their research progress is lacking. This review discusses the critical pathogenic mechanisms of microbes in the skeletal system and their immunomodulatory effects on bone regeneration, and highlights the prospects and challenges for the application of tissue engineering technologies in the treatment of bone infections. It will inform the development and translation of antimicrobial and bone repair tissue engineering materials for the management of bone infections.

Abstract
Chitosan, a versatile biopolymer, has gained recognition in the discipline of dental implantology due to possessing salient properties. This comprehensive review explores the potential of chitosan in dental implants, focusing on its biocompatibility, bioactivity, and the various chitosan-based materials that have been utilized for dental implant therapy. The review also highlights the importance of surface treatment in dental implants to enhance osseointegration and inhibit bacterial biofilm formation. Additionally, the chemical structure, properties, and sources of chitosan are described, along with its different structural forms. The characteristics of chitosan particularly color, molecular weight, viscosity, and degree of deacetylation are discussed about their influence on its applications. This review provides valuable insights into the promising utilization of polymeric chitosan in enhancing the success and functionality of dental implants. This study highlights the potential applications of chitosan in oral implantology. Chitosan possesses various advantageous properties, including muco-adhesiveness, hemostatic action, biocompatibility, biodegradability, bioactivity, and antibacterial and antifungal activities, which enhance its uses in dental implantology. However, it has limited aqueous solubility at the physiological pH, which sometimes restricts its biological application, but this problem can be overcome by using modified chitosan or chitosan derivatives, which have also shown encouraging results. Recent research suggests that chitosan may act as a promising material for coating titanium-based implants, improving osteointegration together with antibacterial properties.

Abstract
This retrospective study examined mastoid defects resulting from cochlear implant (CI) surgery and their potential for spontaneous regrowth across different age groups. Spontaneous closure of mastoid defects has been observed in certain CI patients during revision surgery or through post-operative temporal bone computer tomography (TB-CT). The analysis encompassed 123 CI recipients, comprising 81.3% children and 18.7% adults, who underwent post-operative TB-CT scans. Using image adjustment software, the study measured mastoid defect areas and found a significant reduction in children's defects between the initial and subsequent scans. Notably, mastoid defect areas differed significantly between children and adults at both time points. Furthermore, the analysis revealed significant correlations between mastoid defect areas and the age at implantation as well as the time elapsed since the CI surgery and the first CT scan. This study provides valuable insights for evaluating CI patients scheduled for revision surgery by assessing potential surgical challenges and duration. Furthermore, it may have a pivotal role in evaluating patients who experience postauricular swelling subsequent to CI surgery.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder marked by compromised bone integrity, predisposing individuals, particularly older adults and postmenopausal women, to fractures. The advent of bioceramics for bone regeneration has opened up auspicious pathways for addressing osteoporosis. Research indicates that bioceramics can help bones grow back by activating bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and wingless/integrated (Wnt)/β-catenin pathways in the body when combined with stem cells, drugs, and other supports. Still, bioceramics have some problems, such as not being flexible enough and prone to breaking, as well as difficulties in growing stem cells and discovering suitable supports for different bone types. While there have been improvements in making bioceramics better for healing bones, it is important to keep looking for new ideas from different areas of medicine to make them even better. By conducting a thorough scrutiny of the pivotal role bioceramics play in facilitating bone regeneration, this review aspires to propel forward the rapidly burgeoning domain of scientific exploration. In the end, this appreciation will contribute to the development of novel bioceramics that enhance bone regrowth and offer patients with bone disorders alternative treatments.

Abstract
The conventional approach for addressing bone defects and stubborn non-unions typically involves the use of autogenous bone grafts. Nevertheless, obtaining these grafts can be challenging, and the procedure can lead to significant morbidity. Three primary treatment strategies for managing bone defects and non-unions prove resistant to conventional treatments: synthetic bone graft substitutes (BGS), a combination of BGS with bioactive molecules, and the use of BGS in conjunction with stem cells. In the realm of synthetic BGS, a multitude of biomaterials have emerged for creating scaffolds in bone tissue engineering (TE). These materials encompass biometals like titanium, iron, magnesium, and zinc, as well as bioceramics such as hydroxyapatite (HA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP). Bone TE scaffolds serve as temporary implants, fostering tissue ingrowth and the regeneration of new bone. They are meticulously designed to enhance bone healing by optimizing geometric, mechanical, and biological properties. These scaffolds undergo continual remodeling facilitated by bone cells like osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Through various signaling pathways, stem cells and bone cells work together to regulate bone regeneration when a portion of bone is damaged or deformed. By targeting signaling pathways, bone TE can improve bone defects through effective therapies. This review provided insights into the interplay between cells and the current state of bioceramics in the context of bone regeneration.

Abstract
The number of patients with functional loss of bone and cartilage tissue has shown an increasing trend. Insufficient or inappropriate conventional treatments applied for trauma, orthopedic diseases, or other bone and cartilage-related disorders can lead to bone and cartilage damage. This represents a worldwide public health issue and a significant economic burden. Advanced therapeutic medicinal products (ATMPs) proposed promising alternative therapeutic modalities by application of cell-based and tissue engineering approaches. Recently, several ATMPs have been developed to promote bone and cartilage tissue regeneration. Fifteen ATMPs, two related to bone and 13 related to cartilage, have received regulatory approval and marketing authorization. However, four ATMPs were withdrawn from the market for various reasons. However, ATMPs that are still on the market have demonstrated positive results, their broad application faced limitations. The development and standardization of methodologies will be a major challenge in the coming decades. Currently, the number of ATMPs in clinical trials using mesenchymal stromal cells or chondrocytes indicates a growing recognition that current ATMPs can be improved. Research on bone and cartilage tissue regeneration continues to expand. Cell-based therapies are likely to be clinically supported by the new ATMPs, innovative fabrication processes, and enhanced surgical approaches. In this study, we highlighted the available ATMPs that have been used in bone and cartilage defects and discussed their advantages and disadvantages in clinical applications.

Abstract
Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), as an autologous blood preparation, has been receiving increasing attention in recent years and has been successfully applied in various clinical treatments for alveolar bone regeneration in the oral field. This review focuses on analyzing and summarizing the role and mechanism of PRF in alveolar bone regeneration. We first provide a brief introduction to PRF, then summarize the mechanisms by which PRF promotes alveolar bone regeneration from three aspects: osteogenesis mechanism, bone induction mechanism, and bone conduction mechanism, involving multiple signaling pathways such as Smad, ERK1/2, PI3K/Akt, and Wnt/β-catenin. We also explore the various roles of PRF as a scaffold, filler, and in combination with bone graft materials, detailing how PRF promotes alveolar bone regeneration and provides a wealth of experimental evidence. Finally, we summarize the current applications of PRF in various oral fields. The role of PRF in alveolar bone regeneration is becoming increasingly important, and its role and mechanism are receiving more and more research and understanding. This article will provide a reference of significant value for research in related fields. The exploration of the role and mechanism of PRF in alveolar bone regeneration may lead to the discovery of new therapeutic targets and the development of more effective and efficient treatment strategies.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is a multistep and regular physiological process that occurs normally in fracture repair and bone defects. However, some factors such as aging, particular diseases and some drugs prevent or slowdown bone natural healing. Cell therapy using stem cells and differentiation activating factors is an effective treatment method for bone regeneration triggering in unusual conditions. Therefore, in the present study the effect of phycocyanin and phycoerythrin pigments which isolated from Spirulina platensis and Gracilaria gracilis algae was investigate on osteogenic differentiation potency of human Amniotic Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hAMSCs). For this purpose, hAMSCs were exposed to 300, 500, and 700 µg/ml concentrations of phycocyanin and phycoerythrin pigments and then the cells viability was measured with MTT assay in 48 and 72 h after treatment. The osteo-differentiation level of cells was studied by measuring ALP activity using calorimetric method and Alizarin red staining for calcium deposition in 7 and 21 days after treatment. Also, total RNA of cells was extracted in different time periods and then cDNA synthesized with specific primers, and relative expression of Runx2, β-catenin and Osteocalcin genes were investigated using SYBR Green RT-qPCR technique. Osteogenic differentiation of hAMSCs that treated with pigments was confirmed by mineral deposits staining and increased level of ALP activity. Furthermore, these pigments elevated significantly the expression of osteogenic marker genes compared to control samples and caused hAMSCs to differentiate into osteoblast cells. According to these results, phycocyanin and phycoerythrin may suggest as suitable osteogenic supplements with low toxicity, low cost and high efficiency, although the molecular mechanism of its efficacy is not available yet.

Abstract
There are many gynecological diseases, among which breast cancer (BC), cervical cancer (CC), endometriosis (EMs), and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) are common and difficult to cure. Stem cells (SCs) are a focus of regenerative medicine. They are commonly used to treat organ damage and difficult diseases because of their potential for self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation. SCs are also commonly used for difficult-to-treat gynecological diseases because of their strong directional differentiation ability with unlimited possibilities, their tendency to adhere to the diseased tissue site, and their use as carriers for drug delivery. SCs can produce exosomes in a paracrine manner. Exosomes can be produced in large quantities and have the advantage of easy storage. Their safety and efficacy are superior to those of SCs, which have considerable potential in gynecological treatment, such as inhibiting endometrial senescence, promoting vascular reconstruction, and improving anti-inflammatory and immune functions. In this paper, we review the mechanisms of the regenerative and anti-inflammatory capacity of SCs and exosomes in incurable gynecological diseases and the current progress in their application in genetic engineering to provide a foundation for further research.

Abstract
Bioceramics have attracted considerable attention in the field of bone repair because of their excellent osteogenic properties, degradability, and biocompatibility. To resolve issues regarding limited formability, recent studies have introduced 3D printing technology for the fabrication of bioceramic bone repair scaffolds. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which bioceramics promote bone repair and clinical applications of 3D-printed bioceramic scaffolds remain elusive. This review provides an account of the fabrication methods of 3D-printed degradable bioceramic scaffolds. In addition, the types and characteristics of degradable bioceramics used in clinical and preclinical applications are summarized. We have also highlighted the osteogenic molecular mechanisms in biomaterials with the aim of providing a basis and support for future research on the clinical applications of degradable bioceramic scaffolds. Finally, new developments and potential applications of 3D-printed degradable bioceramic scaffolds are discussed with reference to experimental and theoretical studies.

Abstract
Stem cell-based therapy is a significant topic in regenerative medicine, with a predominant role being played by human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The hMSCs have been shown to be suitable in regenerative medicine for the treatment of bone tissue. In the last few years, the average lifespan of our population has gradually increased. The need of biocompatible materials, which exhibit high performances, such as efficiency in bone regeneration, has been highlighted by aging. Current studies emphasize the benefit of using biomimetic biomaterials, also known as scaffolds, for bone grafts to speed up bone repair at the fracture site. For the healing of injured bone and bone regeneration, regenerative medicine techniques utilizing a combination of these biomaterials, together with cells and bioactive substances, have drawn a great interest. Cell therapy, based on the use of hMSCs, alongside materials for the healing of damaged bone, has obtained promising results. In this work, several aspects of cell biology, tissue engineering, and biomaterials applied to bone healing/regrowth will be considered. In addition, the role of hMSCs in these fields and recent progress in clinical applications are discussed. Impact Statement The restoration of large bone defects is both a challenging clinical issue and a socioeconomic problem on a global scale. Different therapeutic approaches have been proposed for human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), considering their paracrine effect and potential differentiation into osteoblasts. However, different limitations are still to be overcome in using hMSCs as a therapeutic opportunity in bone fracture repair, including hMSC administration methods. To identify a suitable hMSC delivery system, new strategies have been proposed using innovative biomaterials. This review provides an update of the literature on hMSC/scaffold clinical applications for the management of bone fractures.

Abstract
Herein, we provide a protocol for visualizing active osteoclast cathepsin K (CatK) with the quenched-fluorescent-activity-based probe qTJK17. We describe steps for isolating peripheral blood mononuclear cells, their differentiation into osteoclasts, and TRAP staining using an acid phosphatase leukocyte kit. We then detail visualization of active CatK. The probe qTJK17 includes a reactive group, acyloxymethylketone, that binds to the CatK active site, recognition sequence, and fluorescence donor-acceptor pair. This protocol can determine the exact localization of active CatK in osteoclasts. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Janiszewski et al. (2023).1.

Abstract
Despite significant advances in biomedical research, osteochondral defects resulting from injury, an autoimmune condition, cancer, or other pathological conditions still represent a significant medical problem. Even though there are several conservative and surgical treatment approaches, in many cases, they do not bring the expected results and further permanent damage to the cartilage and bones occurs. Recently, cell-based therapies and tissue engineering have gradually become promising alternatives. They combine the use of different types of cells and biomaterials to induce regeneration processes or replace damaged osteochondral tissue. One of the main challenges of this approach before clinical translation is the large-scale in vitro expansion of cells without changing their biological properties, while the use of conditioned media which contains various bioactive molecules appears to be very important. The presented manuscript provides a review of the experiments focused on osteochondral regeneration by using conditioned media. In particular, the effect on angiogenesis, tissue healing, paracrine signaling, and enhancing the properties of advanced materials are pointed out.

Abstract
Bone loss is a common problem that ranges from small defects to large defects after trauma, surgery, or congenital malformations. The oral cavity is a rich source of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). Researchers have documented their isolation and studied their osteogenic potential. Therefore, the objective of this review was to analyze and compare the potential of MSCs from the oral cavity for use in bone regeneration. METHODS A scoping review was carried out following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines. The databases reviewed were PubMed, SCOPUS, Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), and Web of Science. Studies using stem cells from the oral cavity to promote bone regeneration were included. RESULTS A total of 726 studies were found, of which 27 were selected. The MSCs used to repair bone defects were (I) dental pulp stem cells of permanent teeth, (II) stem cells derived from inflamed dental pulp, (III) stem cells from exfoliated deciduous teeth, (IV) periodontal ligament stem cells, (V) cultured autogenous periosteal cells, (VI) buccal fat pad-derived cells, and (VII) autologous bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Stem cells associate with scaffolds to facilitate insertion into the bone defect and to enhance bone regeneration. The biological risk and morbidity of the MSC-grafted site were minimal. Successful bone formation after MSC grafting has been shown for small defects with stem cells from the periodontal ligament and dental pulp as well as larger defects with stem cells from the periosteum, bone, and buccal fat pad. CONCLUSIONS Stem cells of maxillofacial origin are a promising alternative to treat small and large craniofacial bone defects; however, an additional scaffold complement is required for stem cell delivery.

In Vitro Screening Studies on Eight Commercial Essential Oils-Derived Compounds to Identify Promising Natural Agents for the Prevention of Osteoporosis. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11041095.

Abstract
Over the years, essential oils (EOs) and their compounds have gained growing interest due to their anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of eight commercially available EO-derived compounds ((R)-(+)-limonene, (S)-(−)-limonene, sabinene, carvacrol, thymol, alpha-pinene (α-pinene), beta-pinene (β-pinene), and cinnamaldehyde) on the bone formation process in vitro to select the most promising natural agents that could potentially be used in the prevention or treatment of osteoporosis. Within this study, evaluation of cytotoxicity, cell proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation was performed with the use of mouse primary calvarial preosteoblasts (MC3T3-E1). Moreover, extracellular matrix (ECM) mineralization was determined using MC3T3-E1 cells and dog adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs). The two highest non-toxic concentrations of each of the compounds were selected and used for testing other activities. The conducted study showed that cinnamaldehyde, thymol, and (R)-(+)-limonene significantly stimulated cell proliferation. In the case of cinnamaldehyde, the doubling time (DT) for MC3T3-E1 cells was significantly shortened to approx. 27 h compared to the control cells (DT = 38 h). In turn, cinnamaldehyde, carvacrol, (R)-(+)-limonene, (S)-(−)-limonene, sabinene, and α-pinene exhibited positive effects on either the synthesis of bone ECM or/and mineral deposition in ECM of the cells. Based on the conducted research, it can be assumed that cinnamaldehyde and (R)-(+)-limonene are the most promising among all tested EO-derived compounds and can be selected for further detailed research in order to confirm their biomedical potential in the chemoprevention or treatment of osteoporosis since they not only accelerated the proliferation of preosteoblasts, but also significantly enhanced osteocalcin (OC) synthesis by preosteoblasts (the OC level was approx. 1100–1200 ng/mg compared to approx. 650 ng/mg in control cells) and ECM calcification of both preosteoblasts and mesenchymal stem cells. Importantly, cinnamaldehyde treatment led to a three-fold increase in the mineral deposition in ADSCs, whereas (R)-(+)-limonene caused a two-fold increase in the ECM mineralization of both MC3T3-E1 cells and ADSCs.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by trauma or tumor are a significant challenge in clinical practice. Hydrogel-based tissue engineering has been considered an effective strategy. This study successfully formed a series of injectable hydrogels by enzyme-catalyzed crosslinking hyaluronic acid-tyramine (HA-TA) and sodium alginate-tyramine (ALG-TA) under physiological conditions in the presence of both horseradish peroxidase and hydrogen peroxide. The morphology, mechanical properties, swelling properties, and biodegradation properties of hydrogels were investigated. The results showed that the mechanical properties, swelling properties and biodegradation of HA/ALG hydrogels varied with the precursor solution concentration. Furthermore, the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs within the HA/ALG hydrogels were evaluated in vitro. The results illustrated that the hydrogels could offer an excellent microenvironment for BMSCs growth and promote osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, the injectable hydrogels can be used as an effective 3 D scaffold for bone repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Cathepsin K (CatK) is a lysosomal cysteine protease whose highest expression is found in osteoclasts, which are the cells responsible for bone resorption. Investigations of the functions and physiological relevance of CatK have often relied on antibody-related techniques, which makes studying its activity patterns a challenging task. Hence, we developed a set of chemical tools for the investigation of CatK activity. We show that our probe is a valuable tool for monitoring the proteolytic activation of CatK during osteoclast formation. Moreover, we demonstrate that our inhibitor of CatK impedes osteoclastogenesis and bone resorption and that CatK is stored in its active form in osteoclasts within their lysosomal compartment and mainly in the ruffled borders of osteoclasts. Given that our probe recognizes active CatK within living cells without exhibiting any observed cytotoxicity in the several models tested, we expect that it would be well suited to theranostic applications in CatK-related diseases.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a bone disorder characterised by low bone mineral density, reduced bone strength, increased bone fragility, and impaired mineralisation of bones causing an increased risk of bone fracture. Several therapies are available for treating osteoporosis which include bisphosphonates, anti-resorptive agents, oestrogen modulators, etc. These therapies primarily focus on decreasing bone resorption and do not assist in bone regeneration or offering permanent curative solutions. Additionally, these therapies are associated with severe adverse events like thromboembolism, increased risk of stroke, and hypocalcaemia. To overcome these limitations, bone regenerative pathways and approaches are now considered to manage osteoporosis. The bone regenerative pathways involved in bone regeneration include wingless-related integration site/β-catenin signalling pathway, notch signalling pathway, calcium signalling, etc. The various regenerative approaches which possess potential to heal and replace the bone defect site include scaffolds, cements, cell therapy, and other alternative medicines. The review focuses on describing the challenges and opportunities in bone regeneration for osteoporosis.

Galangin inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and stimulates osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells via regulation of AKT/mTOR signaling. Allergol Immunopathol (Madr) 2023; 51:133-139. [PMID: 36617832 DOI: 10.15586/aei.v51i1.741] [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: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), with the abilities of multidirectional differentiation and self-renewal, have been widely used in bone repair and regeneration of inflammation-stimulated oral diseases. Galangin is a flavonoid isolated from Alpinia officinarum, exerts anti-obesity, antitumor, and anti-inflammation pharmacological effects. The roles of galangin in lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs were investigated. METHODS BMSCs were isolated from rat bone marrow and identified by flow cytometry. The isolated BMSCs were treated with 1 μg/mL lipopolysaccharides or cotreated with lipopolysaccharides and different concentrations of galangin. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by MTT (tetrazolium component) and flow cytometry. ELISA was used to detect inflammation. Alizarin red staining was used to investigate osteogenic differentiation. RESULTS The rat BMSCs showed negative rate of CD34, and positive rate of CD29 and CD44. Lipopolysaccharides treatment reduced cell viability of BMSCs, and promoted the cell apoptosis. Incubation with galangin enhanced cell viability of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs, and suppressed the cell apoptosis. Galangin decreased levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs through down-regulation of NF-κB phosphorylation (p-NF-κB). Galangin up-regulated expression of osteo-specific proteins, collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1), osteopontin (OPN), and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), to promote the osteogenic differentiation of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs. Protein expression of p-AKT and p-mTOR in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated BMSCs were increased by galangin treatment. CONCLUSION Galangin exerted an anti-inflammatory effect against lipopolysaccharide- stimulated BMSCs and promoted osteogenic differentiation through the activation of AKT/ mTOR signaling.

Poult Sci 2022; 102:102438. [PMID: 36780704 PMCID: PMC9947423 DOI: 10.1016/j.psj.2022.102438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Keel bone fractures affect welfare, health, and production performance in laying hens. A total of one hundred and twenty 35-wk-old Hy-line Brown laying hens with normal keel (NK) bone were housed in furnished cages and studied for ten weeks to investigate the underlying mechanism of keel bone fractures. At 45 wk of age, the keel bone state of birds was assessed by palpation and X-ray, and laying hens were recognized as NK and fractured keel (FK) birds according to the presence or absence of fractures in keel bone. The serum samples of 10 NK and 10 FK birds were collected to determine bone metabolism-related indexes and slaughtered to collect keel bones for RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), Micro-CT, and histopathological staining analyses. The results showed that the concentrations of Ca, phosphorus, calcitonin, 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, and osteocalcin and activities of alkaline phosphatase and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) in serum samples of FK birds were lower than those of NK birds (P < 0.05), but the concentrations of parathyroid hormone, osteoprotegerin, and corticosterone in serum samples of FK birds were higher than those of NK birds (P < 0.05). TRAP staining displayed that FK bone increased the number of osteoclasts (P < 0.05). Micro-CT analysis indicated that FK bone decreased bone mineral density (P < 0.05). Transcriptome sequencing analysis of NK and FK bones identified 214 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) (|log2FoldChange| > 1, P < 0.05), among which 88 were upregulated and 126 downregulated. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway (KEGG) analysis indicated that 14 DEGs related to skeletal muscle movement and bone Ca transport (COL6A1, COL6A2, COL6A3, PDGFA, MYLK2, EGF, CAV3, ADRA1D, BDKRB1, CACNA1S, TNN, TNNC1, TNNC2, and RYR3) were enriched in focal adhesion and Ca signaling pathway, regulating bone quality. This study suggests that abnormal bone metabolism related to keel bone fractures is possibly responded to fracture healing in laying hens.

Abstract
This review’s objectives are to provide an overview of the various kinds of biopolymer hydrogels that are currently used for bone tissue and periodontal tissue regeneration, to list the advantages and disadvantages of using them, to assess how well they might be used for nanoscale fabrication and biofunctionalization, and to describe their production processes and processes for functionalization with active biomolecules. They are applied in conjunction with other materials (such as microparticles (MPs) and nanoparticles (NPs)) and other novel techniques to replicate physiological bone generation more faithfully. Enhancing the biocompatibility of hydrogels created from blends of natural and synthetic biopolymers can result in the creation of the best scaffold match to the extracellular matrix (ECM) for bone and periodontal tissue regeneration. Additionally, adding various nanoparticles can increase the scaffold hydrogel stability and provide a number of biological effects. In this review, the research study of polysaccharide hydrogel as a scaffold will be critical in creating valuable materials for effective bone tissue regeneration, with a future impact predicted in repairing bone defects.

Abstract
Purpose Molecular processes in primary osteoblasts were analyzed in response to magnetic and electric field exposure to examine its potential impact on bone healing. Methods Primary osteoblasts were exposed to a combination of a magnetic field and an additional electric field (EFMF) (20 Hz, 700 mV, 5 mT, continuous sinusoids) in vitro. mRNA- and protein-expressions were assessed during a time interval of 21 days and compared with expression data obtained from control osteoblasts. Results We observed an autonomous osteoblast differentiation process in vitro under the chosen cultivation conditions. The initial proliferative phase was characterized by a constitutively high mRNA expression of extracellular matrix proteins. Concurrent EFMF exposure resulted in significanly increased cell proliferation (fold change: 1.25) and reduced mRNA-expressions of matrix components (0.5–0.75). The following reorganization of the extracellular matrix is prerequisite for matrix mineralization and is characterised by increased Ca2+ deposition (1.44). On molecular level EFMF exposure led to a significant decreased thrombospondin 1 (THBS1) mRNA- (0.81) and protein- (0.54) expression, which in turn reduced the TGFß1-dependent mRNA- (0.68) and protein- (0.5) expression of transforming growth factor beta induced (ßIG-H3) significantly, an inhibitor of endochondral ossification. Consequently, EFMF exposure stimulated the expression of genes characteristic for endochondral ossification, such as collagen type 10, A1 (1.50), osteopontin (1.50) and acellular communication network factor 3 (NOV) (1.45). Conclusions In vitro exposure of osteoblasts to EFMF supports cell differentiation and induces gene- and protein-expression patterns characteristic for endochondral ossification during bone fracture healing in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) have been studied for bone repair because they have regenerative potential to differentiate into osteoblasts. The development of injectable and in situ three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds to proliferate and differentiate BMSCs and deliver BMP-2 is a crucial technology in BMSC-based tissue engineering. METHODS The proliferation of mouse BMSCs (mBMSCs) in collagen/poly-γ-glutamic acid (Col/γ-PGA) hydrogel was evaluated using LIVE/DEAD and acridine orange and propidium iodide assays. In vitro osteogenic differentiation and the gene expression level of Col/γ-PGA(mBMSC/BMP-2) were assessed by alizarin red S staining and quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The bone regeneration effect of Col/γ-PGA(mBMSC/BMP-2) was evaluated in a mouse calvarial bone defect model. The cranial bones of the mice were monitored by micro-computed tomography and histological analysis. RESULTS The developed Col/γ-PGA hydrogel showed low viscosity below ambient temperature, while it provided a high elastic modulus and viscous modulus at body temperature. After gelation, the Col/γ-PGA hydrogel showed a 3D and interconnected porous structure, which helped the effective proliferation of BMSCs with BMP-2. The Col/γ-PGA (mBMSC/BMP-2) expressed more osteogenic genes and showed effective orthotopic bone formation in a mouse model with a critical-sized bone defect in only 3-4 weeks. CONCLUSION The Col/γ-PGA(mBMSC/BMP-2) hydrogel was suggested to be a promising platform by combining collagen as a major component of the extracellular matrix and γ-PGA as a viscosity reducer for easy handling at room temperature in BMSC-based bone tissue engineering scaffolds.

Abstract
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) have paved a way for treating musculoskeletal diseases in a minimally invasive manner. The regenerative medicine cocktail involves the usage of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), either uncultured or culture-expanded cells along with growth factors, cytokines, exosomes, and secretomes to provide a better regenerative milieu in degenerative diseases. The successful regeneration of cartilage depends on the selection of the appropriate source of MSCs, the quality, quantity, and frequency of MSCs to be injected, and the selection of the patient at an appropriate stage of the disease. However, confirmation on the most favorable source of MSCs remains uncertain to clinicians. The lack of knowledge in the current cellular treatment is uncertain in terms of how beneficial MSCs are in the long-term or short-term (resolution of pain) and improved quality of life. Whether MSCs treatments have any superiority, exists due to sources of MSCs utilized in their potential to objectively regenerate the cartilage at the target area. Many questions on source and condition remain unanswered. Hence, in this review, we discuss the lineage differentiation potentials of various sources of MSCs used in the management of knee osteoarthritis and emphasize the role of tissue engineering in cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
While cells are known to behave differently based on the size of micropatterned islands and is thought to be related to cell size and cell-cell contacts, the exact threshold for this difference between small and large islands is unknown. Furthermore, while cell size and cell-cell contacts can be easily manipulated on small islands, they are harder to measure and continually monitor on larger islands. To investigate this size threshold, and to explore cell size, cell-cell contacts, and differentiation, we use a previously established simulation to plan experiments and explain results that we could not explain from experiments alone. We use five seeding densities covering three orders of magnitude over 25-500 µm diameter islands to examine markers of proliferation and differentiation in bone marrow derived mesenchymal cells (cell line). We show that osteogenic markers are most accurately described as a function of confluence for larger islands, but a function of time for smaller islands. We further show, using results of the simulation, that cell size and cell-cell contacts are also related to confluence on larger islands, but only cell-cell contacts are related to confluence on small islands. This work uses simulations to explain experimental results that could not be explained from experiments alone. Together, the simulations and experiments in this work show different differentiation patterns on large and small islands, and this simulation may be useful in planning future studies related to this work.

Bioengineered Living Bone Grafts-A Concise Review on Bioreactors and Production Techniques In Vitro. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23031765. [PMID: 35163687 PMCID: PMC8836415 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23031765] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2022] [Revised: 01/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
It has been observed that bone fractures carry a risk of high mortality and morbidity. The deployment of a proper bone healing method is essential to achieve the desired success. Over the years, bone tissue engineering (BTE) has appeared to be a very promising approach aimed at restoring bone defects. The main role of the BTE is to apply new, efficient, and functional bone regeneration therapy via a combination of bone scaffolds with cells and/or healing promotive factors (e.g., growth factors and bioactive agents). The modern approach involves also the production of living bone grafts in vitro by long-term culture of cell-seeded biomaterials, often with the use of bioreactors. This review presents the most recent findings concerning biomaterials, cells, and techniques used for the production of living bone grafts under in vitro conditions. Particular attention has been given to features of known bioreactor systems currently used in BTE: perfusion bioreactors, rotating bioreactors, and spinner flask bioreactors. Although bioreactor systems are still characterized by some limitations, they are excellent platforms to form bioengineered living bone grafts in vitro for bone fracture regeneration. Moreover, the review article also describes the types of biomaterials and sources of cells that can be used in BTE as well as the role of three-dimensional bioprinting and pulsed electromagnetic fields in both bone healing and BTE.

Abstract
Tissue engineering based on the combined use of isolated cells, scaffolds, and growth factors is widely used; however, the manufacture of cell-preloaded scaffolds faces challenges. Herein, we fabricated a multicomponent scaffold with multiple component accommodations, including bioactive molecules (BMs), such as fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and l-ascorbic acid 2-phosphate (A2-P), and living cells of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs), within one scaffold construct. We report an innovative fabrication process based on vapor-phased construction using iced templates for vapor sublimation. Simultaneously, the vaporized water molecules were replaced by vapor deposition of poly-p-xylylene (PPX, USP Class VI, highly compatible polymer, FDA-approved records), forming a three-dimensional and porous scaffold matrix. More importantly, a multicomponent modification was achieved based on using nonvolatile solutes, including bioactive molecules of FGF-2 and A2-P, and living cells of hASCs, to prepare iced templates for sublimation. Additionally, the fabrication and construction resulted in a multicomponent scaffold product comprising the devised molecules, cells, and vapor-polymerized poly-p-xylylene as the scaffold matrix. The clean and dry fabrication process did not require catalysts, initiators or plasticizers, and potentially harmful solvents, and the scaffold products were produced in simple steps within hours of the processing time. Cell viability analysis showed a high survival rate (approximately 86.4%) for the accommodated hASCs in the fabricated scaffold product, and a surprising multilineage differentiation potential of hASCs was highly upregulated because of synergistic guidance by the same accommodated FGF-2 and A2-P components. Proliferation and self-renewal activities were also demonstrated with enhancement of the multicomponent scaffold product. Finally, in vivo calvarial defect studies further revealed that the constructed scaffolds provided blood vessels to grow into the bone defect areas with enhancement, and the induced conduction of osteoblast growth also promoted bone healing toward osseointegration. The reported scaffold construction technology represents a prospective tissue engineering scaffold product to enable accommodable and customizable versatility to control the distribution and composition of loading delicate BMs and living hASCs in one scaffold construct and demonstrates unlimited applications in tissue engineering repair and regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Methimazole is an antithyroid drug. It has side effects on many tissues. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) are promising in the field of tissue regeneration. OBJECTIVE To investigate the capacity of BM-MSCs on odontogenic differentiation and dentin regeneration at different time intervals in methimazole treated rats. METHODS Twenty-eight male albino rats were classified as: Group I: got distilled water. Group II: obtained therapeutic dosage of methimazole as pro-drug "Neo-Mercazole®". Group III: received methimazole then solitary injection of BM-MSCs at day 21. Group IV: obtained methimazole and single injection of BM-MSCs at the beginning of the experiment. Light microscope was used to examine specimens. Recently formed collagen and β-catenin-immunoreactivity area% were appraised histomorphometrically and statistically. RESULTS Histological examination of odontoblasts and dentin illustrated normal structure in Group I and nearly normal features in Group IV. Group II demonstrated discontinuation of odontoblastic layer and areas of different stainability in dentin. Group III showed an evidently wide layer of odontoblast-like cells and distinct dentinal tubules. Masson's trichrome results of dentin in Groups I &IV showed apparently equal areas of new and old collagen. Group II illustrated old collagen mainly. Group III explored new collagen only. β-catenin-immunoreactivity was strong in Groups I & IV, mild in Group II and moderate in Group III. Statistical results revealed that the highest mean of newly formed collagen area% was in Group III, followed by Group I, Group IV then Group II respectively. Regarding β-catenin-immunoreactivity area%, the highest mean was recorded in Group I, subsequently Group IV, next Group III then Group II. CONCLUSIONS Methimazole has destructive consequences. BM-MSCs have a time-based increased capacity for odontogenic differentiation and regeneration of dentin.

Abstract
Fracture healing is a complex, multistep process that is highly sensitive to mechanical signaling. To optimize repair, surgeons prescribe immediate weight-bearing as-tolerated within 24 hours after surgical fixation; however, this recommendation is based on anecdotal evidence and assessment of bulk healing outcomes (e.g., callus size, bone volume, etc.). Given challenges in accurately characterizing the mechanical environment and the ever-changing properties of the regenerate, the principles governing mechanical regulation of repair, including their cell and molecular basis, are not yet well defined. However, the use of mechanobiological rodent models, and their relatively large genetic toolbox, combined with recent advances in imaging approaches and single-cell analyses is improving our understanding of the bone microenvironment in response to loading. This review describes the identification and characterization of distinct cell populations involved in bone healing and highlights the most recent findings on mechanical regulation of bone homeostasis and repair with an emphasis on osteo-angio coupling. A discussion on aging and its impact on bone mechanoresponsiveness emphasizes the need for novel mechanotherapeutics that can re-sensitize skeletal stem and progenitor cells to physical rehabilitation protocols.

Abstract
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) have the ability to multi polarize with multiple tropisms and participate in tissue remodeling. This study assessed the effect of titanium dioxide nanotubes with different diameters on ossification of BMSC cells and HIF-1α expression in BMSC ossification. Titanium dioxide nanotubes with different diameters were prepared and then the following groups were set according to the size of pressure; Ti group, NT10 group, NT30 group, and NT60 group. Analysis of cell morphology was done by fluorescence microscope, while adhesion and proliferation were assessed by MTT assay. Moreover, ALP activity, collagen secretion and outer matrix mineralization and expression of HIF-1α, VEGF, and TWIST were assessed by RT-PCR and Western blot. The P3 generation of BMSC cells was successfully obtained. Three types of nanotubes were arranged regularly and contact angle showed NT60<NT30<NT10<Ti, protein adsorption presented NT10>Ti>NT30>NT60 (P < 0.05). Cells from NT30 and N60 groups showed obvious expansion with pseudopodia and pseudo plates of cells. Cell adhesion showed changes in sizes of NT10>Ti>NT30>NT66. NT60 group showed lower cell proliferation and higher ALP activity and collagen secretion than the other groups. NT30 and NT60 group presented higher mineralization level, larger diameter, and higher degree of promotion. The NT30 group presented lowest content of HIF-1α (0.12 ± 0.03), VEGF (0.013 ± 0.004), and TWIST (0.014 ± 0.003). Inoculation of BMSCs on titanium dioxide nanotubes of different diameters under cyclical tensile stress environment can promote growth of BMSC cells in a diameter-dependent manner.

Abstract
Background Injection of autologous adipose tissue (AT) has recently been demonstrated to be an effective and safe treatment for anal fistulas. AT mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) mediate the healing process, but the relationship between molecular characteristics of AT-MSCs of the injected AT and fistula healing has not been adequately studied. Thus we aimed to characterize the molecular and functional properties of AT-MSCs isolated from autologous AT injected as a treatment of cryptogenic high transsphincteric perianal fistulas and correlate these findings to the healing process.
Methods 27 patients (age 45 ± 2 years) diagnosed with perianal fistula were enrolled in the study and treated with autologous AT injected around the anal fistula tract. AT-MSCs were isolated for cellular and molecular analyses. The fistula healing was evaluated by MRI scanning after 6 months of treatment. AT-MSC phenotype was compared between responders and non-responders with respect to fistula healing. Results 52% of all patients exhibited clinical healing of the fistulas as evaluated 6 months after last injection. Cultured AT-MSCs in the responder group had a lower short-term proliferation rate and higher osteoblast differentiation potential compared to non-responder AT-MSCs. On the other hand, adipocyte differentiation potential of AT-MSCs was higher in non-responder group. Interestingly, AT-MSCs of responders exhibited lower expression of inflammatory and senescence associated genes such as IL1B, NFKB, CDKN2A, TPB3,TGFB1. Conclusion Our data suggest that cellular quality of the injected AT-MSCs including cell proliferation, differentiation capacity and secretion of proinflammatory molecules may provide a possible mechanism underlying fistula healing. Furthermore, these biomarkers may be useful to predict a positive fistula healing outcome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of crocin (CRO)-loaded collagen (COL) scaffold on the osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). SIGNIFICANCE Different studies have been conducted to develop an efficient strategy to accelerate and improve the recovery process of bone defects. It was shown that CRO, extracted from saffron, could induce osteogenic differentiation of rat BM-MSCs. Scaffolds can also provide a three-dimensional environment for migration, adhesion, growth, and proliferation of MSCs. METHODS Collagen scaffolds were fabricated through freeze-drying followed by cross-linking by dehydrothermal method. Then, CRO was incorporated into the scaffolds. Physicochemical characterization of the scaffolds was evaluated. Rat BM-MSCs were seeded on CRO-loaded COL scaffolds and cultured for 14 days. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated using alizarin red (ALZ) staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay and compared to the positive control group. RESULTS The average pore size of the COL scaffolds was about 97 ± 6.7 µm. Formation of amide cross-links was confirmed by FTIR. The scaffolds were capable of uptaking water up to 50 times more than their initial dry weight and releasing above 90% of their uploaded CRO during 24 h. Collagen scaffolds containing CRO (25 and 50 μM) increased ALZ intensity (3.16 ± 0.3 and 7.32 ± 0.3 folds, respectively) and ALP activity (13.7 ± 1.1 and 12.2 ± 9.4 folds, respectively) in comparison with the positive control group. CONCLUSION Crocin-loaded COL scaffold could effectively enhance calcium deposition and ALP activity in BM-MSCs and therefore proposed as a good candidate to accelerate the healing process of vital bone defects.

Abstract
The process of bone repair has always been a natural mystery. Although bones do repair themselves, supplemental treatment is required for the initiation of the self-regeneration process. Predominantly, surgical procedures are employed for bone regeneration. Recently, cell-based therapy for bone regeneration has proven to be more effective than traditional methods, as it eliminates the immune risk and painful surgeries. In clinical trials, various stem cells, especially mesenchymal stem cells, have shown to be more efficient for the treatment of several bone-related diseases, such as non-union fracture, osteogenesis imperfecta, osteosarcoma, and osteoporosis. Furthermore, the stem cells grown in a suitable three-dimensional scaffold support were found to be more efficient for osteogenesis. It has been shown that the three-dimensional bioscaffolds support and simulate an in vivo environment, which helps in differentiation of stem cells into bone cells. Bone regeneration in patients with bone disorders can be improved through modification of stem cells with several osteogenic factors or using stem cells as carriers for osteogenic factors. In this review, we focused on the various types of stem cells and scaffolds that are being used for bone regeneration. In addition, the molecular mechanisms of various transcription factors, signaling pathways that support bone regeneration and the senescence of the stem cells, which limits bone regeneration, have been discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The study was performed to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing small intestinal submucosa (SIS) scaffolds seeded with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) for engineered tendon repairing rat Achilles tendon defects and to compare the effects of preconditioning treatments (hypoxic vs. normoxic) on the tendon healing. METHODS Fifty SD rats were randomized into five groups. Group A received sham operation (blank control). In other groups, the Achilles tendon was resected and filled with the original tendon (Group B, autograft), cell-free SIS (Group C), or SIS seeded with ADMSCs preconditioned under normoxic conditions (Group D) or hypoxic conditions (Group E). Samples were collected 4 weeks after operation and analyzed by histology, immunohistochemistry, and tensile testing. RESULTS Histologically, compared with Groups C and D, Group E showed a significant improvement in extracellular matrix production and a higher compactness of collagen fibers. Group E also exhibited a significantly higher peak tensile load than Groups D and C. Additionally, Group D had a significantly higher peak load than Group C. Immunohistochemically, Group E exhibited a significantly higher percentage of MKX + cells than Group D. The proportion of ADMSCs simultaneously positive for both MKX and CM-Dil observed from Group E was also greater than that in Group D. CONCLUSIONS In this animal model, the engineered tendon grafts created by seeding ADMSCs on SIS were superior to cell-free SIS. The hypoxic precondition further improved the expression of tendon-related genes in the seeded cells and increased the rupture load after grafting in the Achilles tendon defects.

Integration of Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell Application in Hydroxyapatite-Based Scaffolds in the Treatment of Vertebral Bone Defect due to Spondylitis Tuberculosis: A Translational Study. Stem Cells Int 2021; 2021:9928379. [PMID: 34475959 PMCID: PMC8407992 DOI: 10.1155/2021/9928379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2021] [Revised: 07/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Vertebral bone defect represents one of the most commonly found skeletal problems in the spine. Progressive increase of vertebral involvement of skeletal tuberculosis (TB) is reported as the main cause, especially in developed countries. Conventional spinal fusion using bone graft has been associated with donor-site morbidity and complications. We reported the utilization of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) combined with hydroxyapatite (HA) based scaffolds in treating vertebral bone defect due to spondylitis tuberculosis. Materials and Methods Three patients with tuberculous spondylitis in the thoracic, thoracolumbar, or lumbar region with vertebral body collapse of more than 50 percent were included. The patient underwent a 2-stage surgical procedure, consisting of debridement, decompression, and posterior stabilization in the first stage followed by anterior fusion using the lumbotomy approach at the second stage. Twenty million UC-MSCs combined with HA granules in 2 cc of saline were transplanted to fill the vertebral bone defect. Postoperative alkaline phosphatase level, quality of life, and radiological healing were evaluated at one-month, three-month, and six-month follow-up. Results The initial mean ALP level at one-month follow-up was 48.33 ± 8.50 U/L. This value increased at the three-month follow-up but decreased at the six-month follow-up time, 97 ± 8.19 U/L and 90.33 ± 4.16 U/L, respectively. Bone formation of 50-75% of the defect site with minimal fracture line was found. Increased bone formation comprising 75-100% of the total bone area was reported six months postoperation. A total score of the SF-36 questionnaire showed better progression in all 8 domains during the follow-up with the mean total score at six months of 2912.5 ± 116.67 from all patients. Conclusion Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells combined with hydroxyapatite-based scaffold utilization represent a prospective alternative therapy for bone formation and regeneration of vertebral bone defect due to spondylitis tuberculosis. Further clinical investigations are needed to evaluate this new alternative.

Abstract
Angiogenic-osteogenic cell encapsulation system is a technical need for human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC)-based bone tissue engineering (BTE). Here, we have developed a highly efficient hMSC encapsulation system by incorporating bivalent cobalt doped nano-hydroxyapatite (HAN) and gum tragacanth (GT) as angiogenic-osteogenic components into the calcium alginate (CA) beads. Physico-chemical characterizations revealed that the swelling and degradation of HAN incorporated CA-GT beads (GT-HAN) were 1.34 folds and 2 folds higher than calcium alginate (CA) beads. Furthermore, the diffusion coefficient of solute molecule was found 2.5-fold higher in GT-HAN with respect to CA bead. It is observed that GT-HAN supports the long-term viability of encapsulated hMSC and causes 50% less production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in comparison to CA beads. The expression of osteogenic differentiation markers was found 1.5-2.5 folds higher in the case of GT-HAN in comparison to CA. A similar trend was observed for hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The soluble secretome from hMSC encapsulated in the GT-HAN induced proliferation of endothelial cells and supported tube formation (2.5-fold higher than CA beads). These results corroborated that GT-HAN could be used as an angiogenic-osteogenic cell encapsulation matrix for hMSC encapsulation and BTE application.

Abstract
Treatment of osteoarticular pathology with an alternating electromagnetic field (AEMF) is used today as a promising, non-invasive and safe strategy of physiotherapy. It has been shown that the action of alternating electromagnetic fields on the musculoskeletal system triggers signaling cascades that effectively contribute to the restoration of bone and articular tissue. The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the cellular and subcellular effects of stimulation by an alternating electromagnetic field during the restoration of bone and articular tissue are considered. It was pointed out the several key signaling pathways involved in the restoration of bone and articular tissue under the influence of electromagnetic fields with an analysis of the potential for therapeutic application of electromagnetic fields alone or in combination with other available therapies.

Abstract
The fatal determination of bone marrow mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (BMSC) is closely associated with mechano-environmental factors in addition to biochemical clues. The aim of this study was to induce osteogenesis in the absence of chemical stimuli using a custom-designed laminar flow bioreactor. BMSC were seeded onto synthetic microporous scaffolds and subjected to the subphysiological level of fluid flow for up to 21 days. During the perfusion, cell proliferation was significantly inhibited. There were also morphological changes, with F-actin polymerisation and upregulation of ROCK1. Notably, in BMSC subjected to flow, mRNA expression of osteogenic markers was significantly upregulated and RUNX2 was localised in the nuclei. Further, under perfusion, there was greater deposition of collagen type 1 and calcium onto the scaffolds. The results confirm that an appropriate level of fluid stimuli preconditions BMSC towards the osteoblastic lineage on 3D scaffolds in the absence of chemical stimulation, which highlights the utility of flow bioreactors in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Two poly(δ-valerolactone)/poly(ethylene-co-vinylalcohol)/beta-tricalcium phosphate (PEVAL/PDVAL/β-TCP) composites containing an equal ratio of polymer and filled with 50 and 70 wt% of β-TCP microparticles were prepared by the solvent casting method. Interconnected pores were realized using the salt leached technique, and the porosity of the resulted composites was evaluated by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) method. The homogeneity of the hybrid materials was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The prepared materials' SEM images showed interconnected micropores that respond to the conditions required to allow their uses as scaffolds. The porosity of each scaffold was determined from micro computed tomography (micro-CT) data, and the analysis of the mechanical properties of the prepared materials was studied through the stress-strain compressive test. The proliferation test results used human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to grow and proliferate on the different types of prepared materials, reflecting that the hybrid materials were non-toxic and could be biologically acceptable scaffolds. The antibacterial activity test revealed that incorporation of amoxicillin in the specimens could inhibit the bacterial growth of S. aureus. The in vitro study of the release of amoxicillin from the PEVAL/PDVAL/amoxicillin and PEVAL/PDVAL/β-TCP/amoxicillin drug carrier systems in pH media 7.4, during eight days, gave promising results, and the antibiotic diffusion in these scaffolds obeys the Fickian model.
