Abstract
Tissue loss and end-stage organ failure are serious health problems across the world. Natural and synthetic polymer scaffold material based artificial organs play an important role in the field of tissue engineering and organ regeneration, but they are not from the body and may cause side effects such as rejection. In recent years, the biomimetic decellularized scaffold based materials have drawn great attention in the tissue engineering field for their good biocompatibility, easy modification, and excellent organism adaptability. Therefore, in this review, we comprehensively summarize the application of decellularized scaffolds in tissue engineering and biomedicine in recent years. The preparation methods, modification strategies, construction of artificial tissues, and application in biomedical applications are discussed. We hope that this review will provide a useful reference for research on decellularized scaffolds and promote their application tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioengineered transplantable heart-lung scaffolds could be potentially lifesaving in a large number of congenital and acquired cardiothoracic disorders including terminal heart-lung disease. METHODS We decellularized heart-lung organ-blocks from rats (n = 10) by coronary and tracheal perfusion with ionic detergents in a modified Langendorff circuit. RESULTS In the present project, we were able to achieve complete decellularization of the heart-lung organ-block. Decellularized heart-lung organ-blocks lacked intracellular components but maintained structure of the cellular walls with collagen and elastic fibers. CONCLUSIONS We present a novel model of combined perfusion and decellularization of heart-lung organ-blocks. This model is the first step on the pathway to creating bioengineered transplantable heart-lung scaffolds. We believe that further development of this technology could provide a life-saving conduit, significantly reducing the risks of heart-lung failure surgery and improving postoperative quality of life.

Abstract
Cell therapy is becoming established in many fields, including oncology with CAR-Ts or in regenerative medicine for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes or musculoskeletal disorders with mesenchymal stromal cells. These therapeutic cells are called advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) and include all processes including cells manipulated to obtain reprogramming (iPS), to induce gene expression or by genome editing to modify the expression of a gene. The development of new biomaterial supports that can be 3D printed and take the desired shape of the target tissue before being colonised by the cellular elements necessary for their biological functions and replace the failing organ. All of these new technologies are driving innovation and the development of tomorrow’s bio-medicines. These new biotherapies will profoundly modify patient care in all areas, changing medical practices but with a considerable societal impact. Thus, the development and clinical research on cellular biotherapies are essential health issues but with a major ethical, societal and economic impact.

Abstract
Cardiac patches are biomaterials that can be used for transplantation and repair of damaged myocardium by combining seed cells with the ability to form cardiomyocytes and suitable scaffold materials. On the one hand, they provide temporary support to the infarcted area, and on the other hand, they repair the damaged myocardium by delivering cells or bioactive factors to integrate with the host, which have gradually become a hot research topic in recent years. This paper summarizes the structural properties of natural myocardium and reviews the recent research progress of cardiac patches, including the seed cells and scaffold materials used in patch preparation, as well as the main methods of scaffold preparation and the structure properties of various scaffolds. In addition, a comprehensive analysis of the problems faced in the clinical implementation of cardiac patches is presented. Finally, we look forward to the development of cardiac patches and point out that precisely tunable anisotropic tissue engineering scaffolds close to natural myocardial tissue will become an important direction for future research.

Comparison of Four Machine Learning Techniques for Prediction of Intensive Care Unit Length of Stay in Heart Transplantation Patients. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:863642. [PMID: 35800164 PMCID: PMC9253610 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.863642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BackgroundPost-operative heart transplantation patients often require admission to an intensive care unit (ICU). Early prediction of the ICU length of stay (ICU-LOS) of these patients is of great significance and can guide treatment while reducing the mortality rate among patients. However, conventional linear models have tended to perform worse than non-linear models.Materials and MethodsWe collected the clinical data of 365 patients from Wuhan Union Hospital who underwent heart transplantation surgery between April 2017 and August 2020. The patients were randomly divided into training data (N = 256) and test data (N = 109) groups. 84 clinical features were collected for each patient. Features were validated using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression’s fivefold cross-validation method. We obtained Shapley Additive explanations (SHAP) values by executing package “shap” to interpret model predictions. Four machine learning models and logistic regression algorithms were developed. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC-ROC) was used to compare the prediction performance of different models. Finally, for the convenience of clinicians, an online web-server was established and can be freely accessed via the website https://wuhanunion.shinyapps.io/PredictICUStay/.ResultsIn this study, 365 consecutive patients undergoing heart transplantation surgery for moderate (NYHA grade 3) or severe (NYHA grade 4) heart failure were collected in Wuhan Union Hospital from 2017 to 2020. The median age of the recipient patients was 47.2 years, while the median age of the donors was 35.58 years. 330 (90.4%) of the donor patients were men, and the average surgery duration was 260.06 min. Among this cohort, 47 (12.9%) had renal complications, 25 (6.8%) had hepatic complications, 11 (3%) had undergone chest re-exploration and 19 (5.2%) had undergone extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The following six important clinical features were selected using LASSO regression, and according to the result of SHAP, the rank of importance was (1) the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); (2) donor age; (3) the use of an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP); (4) length of surgery; (5) high creatinine (Cr); and (6) the use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). The eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) algorithm presented significantly better predictive performance (AUC-ROC = 0.88) than other models [Accuracy: 0.87; sensitivity: 0.98; specificity: 0.51; positive predictive value (PPV): 0.86; negative predictive value (NPV): 0.93].ConclusionUsing the XGBoost classifier with heart transplantation patients can provide an accurate prediction of ICU-LOS, which will not only improve the accuracy of clinical decision-making but also contribute to the allocation and management of medical resources; it is also a real-world example of precision medicine in hospitals.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is one of the most promising additive manufacturing technologies for fabricating various biomimetic architectures of tissues and organs. In this context, the bioink, a critical element for biofabrication, is a mixture of biomaterials and living cells used in 3D printing to create cell-laden structures. Recently, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM)-based bioinks derived from natural tissues have garnered enormous attention from researchers due to their unique and complex biochemical properties. This review initially presents the details of the natural ECM and its role in cell growth and metabolism. Further, we briefly emphasize the commonly used decellularization treatment procedures and subsequent evaluations for the quality control of the dECM. In addition, we summarize some of the common bioink preparation strategies, the 3D bioprinting approaches, and the applicability of 3D-printed dECM bioinks to tissue engineering. Finally, we present some of the challenges in this field and the prospects for future development.

Magnetic exposure using Samarium Cobalt (SmC O5) increased proliferation and stemness of human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hUC-MSCs). Sci Rep 2022; 12:8904. [PMID: 35618759 PMCID: PMC9135697 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-12653-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Despite the extensive reports on the potential hazard of magnetic field (MF) exposures on humans, there are also concurrently reported on the improved proliferative property of stem cells at optimum exposure. However, the effect on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) remains unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the impact of induced static MF (SMF) on human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) using Samarium Cobalt (SmCO5). At passage 3, hUC-MSCs (1 × 104) were exposed to 21.6 mT SMF by a direct exposure (DE) showed a significantly higher cell count (p < 0.05) in the growth kinetics assays with the shortest population doubling time relative to indirect exposure and negative control. The DE group was committed into the cell cycle with increased S phase (55.18 ± 1.38%) and G2/M phase (21.75 ± 1.38%) relative to the NC group [S-phase (13.54 ± 2.73%); G2/M phase (8.36 ± 0.28%)]. Although no significant changes were observed in the immunophenotype, the DE group showed an elevated expression of pluripotency-associated markers (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG, and REX1). These results suggest that the MFs could potentially induce proliferation of MSCs, a promising approach to promote stem cells propagation for clinical therapy and research without compromising the stemness of hUC-MSCs.

Abstract
Tissue engineering (TE) is a therapeutic option within regenerative medicine that allows to mimic the original cell environment and functional organization of the cell types necessary for the recovery or regeneration of damaged tissue using cell sources, scaffolds, and bioreactors. Among the cell sources, the utilization of mesenchymal cells (MSCs) has gained great interest because these multipotent cells are capable of differentiating into diverse tissues, in addition to their self-renewal capacity to maintain their cell population, thus representing a therapeutic alternative for those diseases that can only be controlled with palliative treatments. This review aimed to summarize the state of the art of the main sources of MSCs as well as particular characteristics of each subtype and applications of MSCs in TE in seven different areas (neural, osseous, epithelial, cartilage, osteochondral, muscle, and cardiac) with a systemic revision of advances made in the last 10 years. It was observed that bone marrow-derived MSCs are the principal type of MSCs used in TE, and the most commonly employed techniques for MSCs characterization are immunodetection techniques. Moreover, the utilization of natural biomaterials is higher (41.96%) than that of synthetic biomaterials (18.75%) for the construction of the scaffolds in which cells are seeded. Further, this review shows alternatives of MSCs derived from other tissues and diverse strategies that can improve this area of regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Irreversible myocardium infarction is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular disease (CVD) related death and its quantum is expected to grow in coming years. Pharmacological intervention has been at the forefront to ameliorate injury-related morbidity and mortality. However, its outcomes are highly skewed. As an alternative, stem cell-based tissue engineering/regenerative medicine has been explored quite extensively to regenerate the damaged myocardium. The therapeutic modality that has been most widely studied both preclinically and clinically is based on adult multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) delivered to the injured heart. However, there is debate over the mechanistic therapeutic role of MSC in generating functional beating cardiomyocytes. This review intends to emphasize the role and use of MSC in cardiac regenerative therapy (CRT). We have elucidated in detail, the various aspects related to the history and progress of MSC use in cardiac tissue engineering and its multiple strategies to drive cardiomyogenesis. We have further discussed with a focus on the various therapeutic mechanism uncovered in recent times that has a significant role in ameliorating heart-related problems. We reviewed recent and advanced technologies using MSC to develop/create tissue construct for use in cardiac regenerative therapy. Finally, we have provided the latest update on the usage of MSC in clinical trials and discussed the outcome of such studies in realizing the full potential of MSC use in clinical management of cardiac injury as a cellular therapy module.

Abstract
The limited availability of human donor organs suitable for transplantation has resulted in ever-increasing patient waiting lists globally. Xenotransplantation is considered a potential option, but is yet to reach clinical practice. Although remarkable progress has been made in overcoming immunological rejection, issues with functionality are still to be resolved. Bioengineering approaches have been used to create cardiac tissues with optimized functions. The use of decellularized xenogeneic cardiac tissues seeded with donor-derived cardiac cells may prove to be a viable strategy as supporting structures of the native tissue such as vasculature can be utilized. Here we used sequential perfusion to decellularize adult rat hearts. The acellular scaffolds were reseeded with human endothelial cells, human fibroblasts, human mesenchymal stem cells, and cardiac cells derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells. The ability of the resultant recellularized rat scaffolds to activate human naïve neutrophils in vitro was investigated to measure xenogeneic recognition. Our results demonstrate that in contrast to cadaveric xenogeneic hearts, acellular and recellularized xenogeneic scaffolds did not activate human naïve neutrophils and suggest that decellularization removes the xenogeneic antigens that lead to human naïve neutrophil activation thus allowing human cells to populate the now "allogenized" xenogeneic scaffolds.

Combination of mesenchymal stem cells and FK506 prolongs heart allograft survival by inhibiting TBK1/IRF3-regulated-IFN-γ production. Immunol Lett 2021; 238:21-28.

Abstract
Lifelong immunosuppression use presents many serious side effects to transplant recipients. Previous studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) regulate the progress of inflammation and protect allograft function. However, the benefits of MSC combined with low-dose tacrolimus (FK506) has not been investigated in heart transplant recipients, and its mechanism deserves further investigation. SD Rat bone marrow-derived MSC were infused into recipient mouse (C57BL/6, B6) through the tail vein, followed by a BALB/c donor cervical ectopic heart transplantation on the next day of infusion. T-lymphocyte subsets and their functions were determined using flow cytometry, ELISA, and qPCR. Thereafter, in vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted to identify the mechanisms regarding MSC and FK506 combination (MF group) use in regulating IFN-γ signaling. MF group in the allogeneic heart transplantation mouse model inhibited acute rejection and prolonged mean survival time (MST) of grafts from 7 days (d) to 22d. Pathological examination of heart grafts suggested that inflammatory cell infiltration decreased, and tissue damage was significantly reduced in the MF group. IFN-γ mRNA expression levels in the grafts and recipients decreased, while IL-4 and TGF-β mRNA expression increased in the MF group. Phosphorylation of TBK1/IRF3 in recipient immune cells decreased under donor antigen stimulation. Combination use of MSC and FK506 can prolong graft survival, possibly by down-regulating TBK1/IRF3 phosphorylation, thus reducing IFN-γ production to prevent infiltration of inflammatory cells in the graft and extend graft survival. The findings provide a potential new approach to immunosuppression selection.

Abstract
Tissue engineering provides unique opportunities for disease modeling, drug testing, and regenerative medicine applications. The use of cell-seeded scaffolds to promote tissue development is the hallmark of the tissue engineering. Among the different types of scaffolds (derived from either natural or synthetic polymers) used in the field, the use of decellularized tissues/organs is specifically attractive. The decellularization process involves the removal of native cells from the original tissue, allowing for the preservation of the three-dimensional (3D) macroscopic and microscopic structures of the tissue and extracellular matrix (ECM) composition. Following recellularization, the resulting scaffold provides the seeded cells with the appropriate biological signals and mechanical properties of the original tissue. Here, we describe different methods to create viable scaffolds from decellularized heart and liver as useful tools to study and exploit ECM biological key factors for the generation of engineered tissues with enhanced regenerative properties.

Abstract
The urgent demand for transplanted organs has motivated the development of regenerative medicine to biomimetically reconstruct the structure and function of natural tissues or organs. The prerequisites for constructing multicellular organs include specific cell sources, suitable scaffolding material, and interconnective biofunctional interfaces. As some of the most complex systems in nature, human organs, tissues, and cellular units have unique "bio-matrix" physicochemical interfaces. Human tissues support a large number of cells with distinct biofunctional interfaces for compartmentalization related to metabolism, material exchange, and physical barriers. These naturally shaped biofunctional interfaces support critical metabolic functions that drive adaptive human behavior. In contrast, mutations and disorders during organogenesis can disrupt these interfaces as a consequence of disease and trauma. To replicate the appropriate structure and physiological function of tissues and organs, the biomaterials used in these approaches should have properties that mimic those of natural biofunctional interfaces. In this review, the focus is on the biomimetic design of functional interfaces and hierarchical structures for four regenerative organs, liver, kidney, lung, heart, and the immune system. Research on these organs provides understanding of cell-matrix interactions for hierarchically bioinspired material engineering, and guidance for the design of bioartificial organs. Finally, we provide perspectives on future challenges in biofunctional interface designs and discuss the obstacles that remain toward the generation of functional bioartificial organs.
