Decellularized Umbilical Cord as a Scaffold to Support Healing of Full-Thickness Wounds. Biomimetics (Basel) 2024; 9:405. [PMID: 39056846 PMCID: PMC11274938 DOI: 10.3390/biomimetics9070405] [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: 05/28/2024] [Revised: 06/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The umbilical cord is a material that enhances regeneration and is devoid of age-related changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM). The aim of this work was to develop a biodegradable scaffold from a decellularized human umbilical cord (UC-scaffold) to heal full-thickness wounds. Decellularization was performed with 0.05% sodium dodecyl sulfate solution. The UC-scaffold was studied using morphological analysis methods. The composition of the UC-scaffold was studied using immunoblotting and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The adhesion and proliferation of mesenchymal stromal cells were investigated using the LIVE/DEAD assay. The local reaction was determined by subcutaneous implantation in mice (n = 60). A model of a full-thickness skin wound in mice (n = 64) was used to assess the biological activity of the UC-scaffold. The proposed decellularization method showed its effectiveness in the umbilical cord, as it removed cells and retained a porous structure, type I and type IV collagen, TGF-β3, VEGF, and fibronectin in the ECM. The biodegradation of the UC-scaffold in the presence of collagenase, its stability during incubation in hyaluronidase solution, and its ability to swell by 1617 ± 120% were demonstrated. Subcutaneous scaffold implantation in mice showed gradual resorption of the product in vivo without the formation of a dense connective tissue capsule. Epithelialization of the wound occurred completely in contrast to the controls. All of these data suggest a potential for the use of the UC-scaffold.

Abstract
Hydrogels derived from decellularized extracellular matrices (ECM) of animal origin show immense potential for regenerative applications due to their excellent cytocompatibility and biomimetic properties. Despite these benefits, the impact of decellularization protocols on the properties and immunogenicity of these hydrogels remains relatively unexplored. In this study, porcine skeletal muscle ECM (smECM) underwent decellularization using mechanical disruption (MD) and two commonly employed decellularization detergents, sodium deoxycholate (SDC) or Triton X-100. To mitigate immunogenicity associated with animal-derived ECM, all decellularized tissues were enzymatically treated with α-galactosidase to cleave the primary xenoantigen-the α-Gal antigen. Subsequently, the impact of the different decellularization protocols on the resultant hydrogels was thoroughly investigated. All methods significantly reduced total DNA content in hydrogels. Moreover, α-galactosidase treatment was crucial for cleaving α-Gal antigens, suggesting that conventional decellularization methods alone are insufficient. MD preserved total protein, collagen, sulfated glycosaminoglycan, laminin, fibronectin, and growth factors more efficiently than other protocols. The decellularization method impacted hydrogel gelation kinetics and ultrastructure, as confirmed by turbidimetric and scanning electron microscopy analyses. MD hydrogels demonstrated high cytocompatibility, supporting satellite stem cell recruitment, growth, and differentiation into multinucleated myofibers. In contrast, the SDC and Triton X-100 protocols exhibited cytotoxicity. Comprehensive in vivo immunogenicity assessments in a subcutaneous xenotransplantation model revealed MD hydrogels' biocompatibility and low immunogenicity. These findings highlight the significant influence of the decellularization protocol on hydrogel properties. Our results suggest that combining MD with α-galactosidase treatment is an efficient method for preparing low-immunogenic smECM-derived hydrogels with enhanced properties for skeletal muscle regenerative engineering and clinical applications.

Abstract
![]()
Porcine notochordal cell-derived matrix (NCM) has anti-inflammatory
and regenerative effects on degenerated intervertebral discs. For
its clinical use, safety must be assured. The porcine DNA is concerning
because of (1) the transmission of endogenous retroviruses and (2)
the inflammatory potential of cell-free DNA. Here, we present a simple,
detergent-free protocol: tissue lyophilization lyses cells, and matrix
integrity is preserved by limiting swelling during decellularization.
DNA is digested quickly by a high nuclease concentration, followed
by a short washout. Ninety-four percent of DNA was removed, and there
was no loss of glycosaminoglycans or collagen. Forty-three percent
of the total proteins remained in the decellularized NCM (dNCM). dNCM
stimulated as much GAG production as NCM in nucleus pulposus cells
but lost some anti-inflammatory effects. Reconstituted pulverized
dNCM yielded a soft, shear-thinning biomaterial with a swelling ratio
of 350% that also acted as an injectable cell carrier (cell viability
>70%). dNCM can therefore be used as the basis for future biomaterials
aimed at disc regeneration on a biological level and may restore joint
mechanics by creating swelling pressure within the intervertebral
disc.

Abstract
Most multicellular organisms have a major body cavity containing vital organs. This cavity is lined by a mucosa-like serosal surface and filled with serous fluid which suspends many immune cells. Injuries affecting the major body cavity are potentially life-threatening. Here we summarize evidence that unique damage detection and repair mechanisms have evolved to ensure immediate and swift repair of injuries at serosal surfaces. Furthermore, thousands of patients undergo surgery within the abdominal and thoracic cavities each day. While these surgeries are potentially lifesaving, some patients will suffer complications due to inappropriate scar formation when wound healing at serosal surfaces defects. These scars called adhesions cause profound challenges for health care systems and patients. Therefore, reviewing the mechanisms of wound repair at serosal surfaces is of clinical importance. Serosal surfaces will be introduced with a short embryological and microanatomical perspective followed by a discussion of the mechanisms of damage recognition and initiation of sterile inflammation at serosal surfaces. Distinct immune cells populations are free floating within the coelomic (peritoneal) cavity and contribute towards damage recognition and initiation of wound repair. We will highlight the emerging role of resident cavity GATA6+ macrophages in repairing serosal injuries and compare serosal (mesothelial) injuries with injuries to the blood vessel walls. This allows to draw some parallels such as the critical role of the mesothelium in regulating fibrin deposition and how peritoneal macrophages can aggregate in a platelet-like fashion in response to sterile injury. Then, we discuss how serosal wound healing can go wrong, causing adhesions. The current pathogenetic understanding of and potential future therapeutic avenues against adhesions are discussed.

Abstract
Biomaterials for regeneration of the intervertebral disc must meet complex requirements conforming to biological, mechanical and clinical demands. Currently no consensus on their characterization exists. It is crucial to identify parameters and their method of characterization for accurate assessment of their potential efficacy, keeping in mind the translation towards clinical application. This review systematically analyses the characterization techniques of biomaterial systems that have been used for nucleus pulposus (NP) restoration and regeneration. Substantial differences in the approach towards assessment became evident, hindering comparisons between different materials with respect to their suitability for NP restoration and regeneration. We have analysed the current approaches and identified parameters necessary for adequate biomaterial characterization, with the clinical goal of functional restoration and biological regeneration of the NP in mind. Further, we provide guidelines and goals for their measurement. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Biomaterials intended for restoration of regeneration of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc must meet biological, biomechanical and clinical demands. Many materials have been investigated, but a lack of consensus on which parameters to evaluate leads to difficulties in comparing materials as well as mostly partial characterization of the materials in question. A gap between current methodology and clinically relevant and meaningful characterization is prevalent. In this article, we identify necessary methods and their implementation for complete biomaterial characterization in the context of clinical applicability. This will allow for a more unified approach to NP-biomaterials research within the field as a whole and enable comparative analysis of novel materials yet to be developed.

Abstract
Burn wounds are highly debilitating injuries, with significant morbidity and mortality rates worldwide. In association with the damage of the skin integrity, the risk of infection is increased, posing an obstacle to healing and potentially leading to sepsis. Another limitation against healing is associated with antibiotic resistance mainly due to the use of systemic antibiotics for the treatment of localized infections. Nanotechnology has been successful in finding strategies to incorporate antibiotics in nanoparticles for the treatment of local wounds, thereby avoiding the systemic exposure to the drug. This review focuses on the most recent advances on the use of nanoparticles in wound dressing formulations and in tissue engineering for the treatment of burn wound infections.

Abstract
Alpha-Gal (Gal) epitopes present in animal tissues are known to be the key xenoantigens that elicit xenorejection. However, a standardized method to determine Gal epitope in animal tissue-derived biomaterials does not exist. Herein, a standardized method for quantitative detection of Gal antigen was established based on an ELISA inhibition assay with Gal antibody. In this method, the key optimized experimental conditions were: (1) Gal-antigen positive and negative reference materials were developed, and used as positive and negative control in the test system, respectively; (2) A mixture of artificial Gal-BSA antigen plus Gal-negative matrix was used as the calibration standard sample, making it has similar composition with test sample; and (3) The lysis buffer was combined with the homogenate to expose the Gal antigen as much as possible. The results from validation and application experiments showed that the standardized method had good reproducibility (RSD = 12.48%), and the lower detection limit (LDL) is ~7.1 × 1011 Gal epitopes/reaction. This method has been further developed into a detection Kit (Meitan 70101, China), and it has been developed as a standard method for detecting remnant immunogen of animal tissue derived medical devices, and as the industry standard has been released in China.

Abstract
Decellularization of tissues can significantly improve regenerative medicine and tissue engineering by producing natural, less immunogenic, three-dimensional, acellular matrices with high biological activity for transplantation. Decellularized matrices retain specific critical components of native tissues such as stem cell niche, various growth factors, and the ability to regenerate in vivo. However, recellularization and functionalization of these matrices remain limited, highlighting the need to improve the characteristics of decellularized matrices. Incorporating nanoparticles into decellularized tissues can overcome these limitations because nanoparticles possess unique properties such as multifunctionality and can modify the surface of decellularized matrices with additional growth factors, which can be loaded onto the nanoparticles. Therefore, in this minireview, we highlight the various approaches used to improve decellularized matrices with incorporation of nanoparticles and the challenges present in these applications.

NPWT with instillation and dwell time (NPWTi-d), which combines NPWT with wound irrigation, has been clinically applied as a more effective treatment than conventional NPWT. Commercially available recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rh-bFGF) has been demonstrated to be beneficial for use over the wound beds. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of combined treatment with NPWTi-d and rh-bFGF. Six pigs received 12 full-thickness excisional skin wounds and were treated with six different treatment groups for each pair. The treatment regimens were composed NPWTi-d, NPWT, or advanced wound care with or without rh-bFGF. On day 6, the minimum granulation tissue thickness and blood vessel number of the group of combined treatment with NPWTi-d and rh-bFGF spray were significantly greater than that of the control group. Combined treatment with NPWTi-d and rh-bFGF spray reads to good granulation tissue formation and vascularization for accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to adapt a proprietary decellularisation process for human dermis for use with porcine skin. Porcine skin was subject to: sodium chloride (1 M) to detach the epidermis, trypsin paste to remove hair follicles, peracetic acid (0.1% v/v) disinfection, washed in hypotonic buffer and 0.1% (w/v) sodium dodecyl sulphate in the presence of proteinase inhibitors followed by nuclease treatment. Cellular porcine skin, decellularised porcine and human dermis were compared using histology, immunohistochemistry, GSL-1 lectin (alpha-gal epitope) staining, biochemical assays, uniaxial tensile and in vitro cytotoxicity tests. There was no microscopic evidence of cells in decellularised porcine dermis. DNA content was reduced by 98.2% compared to cellular porcine skin. There were no significant differences in the biomechanical parameters studied or evidence of cytotoxicity. The decellularised porcine dermis retained residual alpha-gal epitope. Basement membrane collagen IV immunostaining was lost following decellularisation; however, laminin staining was retained.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix (ECM) is an extraordinarily complex and unique meshwork composed of structural proteins and glycosaminoglycans. The ECM provides essential physical scaffolding for the cellular constituents, as well as contributes to crucial biochemical signaling. Importantly, ECM is an indispensable part of all biological barriers and substantially modulates the interchange of the nanotechnology products through these barriers. The interactions of the ECM with nanoparticles (NPs) depend on the morphological characteristics of intercellular matrix and on the physical characteristics of the NPs and may be either deleterious or beneficial. Importantly, an altered expression of ECM molecules ultimately affects all biological processes including inflammation. This review critically discusses the specific behavior of NPs that are within the ECM domain, and passing through the biological barriers. Furthermore, regenerative and toxicological aspects of nanomaterials are debated in terms of the immune cells-NPs interactions.

Abstract
Macrophages are versatile and plastic effector cells of the immune system, and contribute to diverse immune functions including pathogen or apoptotic cell removal, inflammatory activation and resolution, and tissue healing. Macrophages function as signaling regulators and amplifiers, and influencing their activity is a powerful approach for controlling inflammation or inducing a wound-healing response in regenerative medicine. This review discusses biomaterials-based approaches for altering macrophage activity, approaches for targeting drugs to macrophages, and approaches for delivering macrophages themselves as a therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
The type 2 immune response is an adaptive immune program involved in defense against parasites, detoxification, and wound healing, but is predominantly known for its pathophysiological effects, manifesting as allergic disease. Engineered nanoparticles (NPs) are non-self entities that, to our knowledge, do not stimulate detrimental type 2 responses directly, but have the potential to modulate ongoing reactions in various ways, including the delivery of substances aiming at providing a therapeutic benefit. We review, here, the state of knowledge concerning the interaction of NPs with type 2 immune responses and highlight their potential as a multifunctional platform for therapeutic intervention.

Guided tissue regeneration in heart valve replacement: from preclinical research to first-in-human trials. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2015; 2015:432901.

Abstract
Heart valve tissue-guided regeneration aims to offer a functional and viable alternative to current prosthetic replacements. Not requiring previous cell seeding and conditioning in bioreactors, such exceptional tissue engineering approach is a very fascinating translational regenerative strategy. After in vivo implantation, decellularized heart valve scaffolds drive their same repopulation by recipient's cells for a prospective autologous-like tissue reconstruction, remodeling, and adaptation to the somatic growth of the patient. With such a viability, tissue-guided regenerated conduits can be delivered as off-the-shelf biodevices and possess all the potentialities for a long-lasting resolution of the dramatic inconvenience of heart valve diseases, both in children and in the elderly. A review on preclinical and clinical investigations of this therapeutic concept is provided with evaluation of the issues still to be well deliberated for an effective and safe in-human application.
