[PMID: 37656958 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.a.37599] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2023] [Revised: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/03/2023]
Abstract
The use of biomaterials and implants for joint replacement, fracture fixation, spinal stabilization and other orthopedic indications has revolutionized patient care by reliably decreasing pain and improving function. These surgical procedures always invoke an acute inflammatory reaction initially, that in most cases, readily subsides. Occasionally, chronic inflammation around the implant develops and persists; this results in unremitting pain and compromises function. The etiology of chronic inflammation may be specific, such as with infection, or be unknown. The histological hallmarks of chronic inflammation include activated macrophages, fibroblasts, T cell subsets, and other cells of the innate immune system. The presence of cells of the adaptive immune system usually indicates allergic reactions to metallic haptens. A foreign body reaction is composed of activated macrophages, giant cells, fibroblasts, and other cells often distributed in a characteristic histological arrangement; this reaction is usually due to particulate debris and other byproducts from the biomaterials used in the implant. Both chronic inflammation and the foreign body response have adverse biological effects on the integration of the implant with the surrounding tissues. Strategies to mitigate chronic inflammation and the foreign body response will enhance the initial incorporation and longevity of the implant, and thereby, improve long-term pain relief and overall function for the patient. The seminal research performed in the laboratory of Dr. James Anderson and co-workers has provided an inspirational and driving force for our laboratory's work on the interactions and crosstalk among cells of the mesenchymal, immune, and vascular lineages, and orthopedic biomaterials. Dr. Anderson's delineation of the fundamental biologic processes and mechanisms underlying acute and chronic inflammation, the foreign body response, resolution, and eventual functional integration of implants in different organ systems has provided researchers with a strategic approach to the use of biomaterials to improve health in numerous clinical scenarios.

Bioact Mater 2024; 38:346-373. [PMID: 38764449 PMCID: PMC11101688 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2024.04.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 04/07/2024] [Accepted: 04/29/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels is a widely used bioink because of its good biological properties and tunable physicochemical properties, which has been widely used in a variety of tissue engineering and tissue regeneration. However, pure GelMA is limited by the weak mechanical strength and the lack of continuous osteogenic induction environment, which is difficult to meet the needs of bone repair. Moreover, GelMA hydrogels are unable to respond to complex stimuli and therefore are unable to adapt to physiological and pathological microenvironments. This review focused on the functionalization strategies of GelMA hydrogel based bioinks for bone regeneration. The synthesis process of GelMA hydrogel was described in details, and various functional methods to meet the requirements of bone regeneration, including mechanical strength, porosity, vascularization, osteogenic differentiation, and immunoregulation for patient specific repair, etc. In addition, the response strategies of smart GelMA-based bioinks to external physical stimulation and internal pathological microenvironment stimulation, as well as the functionalization strategies of GelMA hydrogel to achieve both disease treatment and bone regeneration in the presence of various common diseases (such as inflammation, infection, tumor) are also briefly reviewed. Finally, we emphasized the current challenges and possible exploration directions of GelMA-based bioinks for bone regeneration.

Abstract
In cell-based bone augmentation, transplanted cell dysfunction and apoptosis can occur due to oxidative stress caused by the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Edaravone (EDA) is a potent free radical scavenger with potential medical applications. This study aimed to investigate the effect of controlling oxidative stress on bone regeneration using EDA. Bone marrow-derived cells were collected from 4-week-old rats, and EDA effects on cell viability and osteogenic differentiation were evaluated. Collagen gels containing PKH26-prelabeled cells were implanted into the calvarial defects of 12-week-old rats, followed by daily subcutaneous injections of normal saline or 500 μM EDA for 4 d. Bone formation was examined using micro-computed tomography and histological staining. Immunofluorescence staining was performed for markers of oxidative stress, macrophages, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis. EDA suppressed ROS production and hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis, recovering cell viability and osteoblast differentiation. EDA treatment in vivo increased new bone formation. EDA induced the transition of the macrophage population toward the M2 phenotype. The EDA group also exhibited stronger immunofluorescence for vascular endothelial growth factor and CD31. In addition, more PKH26-positive and PKH26-osteocalcin-double-positive cells were observed in the EDA group, indicating that transplanted cell survival was prolonged, and they differentiated into bone-forming cells. This could be attributed to oxidative stress suppression at the transplantation site by EDA. Collectively, local administration using EDA facilitates bone regeneration by improving the local environment and angiogenesis, prolonging survival, and enhancing the osteogenic capabilities of transplanted cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis is a common metabolic disorder that significantly impacts quality of life in the elderly population. Macrophages play a crucial role in the development of osteoporosis by regulating bone metabolism through cytokine secretion. However, there is a lack of scholarly literature in the field of bibliometrics on this topic. OBJECTIVE This study provides a detailed analysis of the research focus and knowledge structure of macrophage studies in osteoporosis using bibliometrics. METHODS The scientific literature on macrophage research in the context of osteoporosis, retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) database spanning from January 1999 to December 2023, has been incorporated for bibliometric examination. The data is methodically analyzed and visually represented using analytical and visualization tools including VOSviewer, CiteSpace, Scimago Graphica, the Bibliometrix R package, and Pajek. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS In the last quarter-century, there has been a consistent rise in the quantity of scholarly publications focusing on the relationship between macrophages and osteoporosis, resulting in a total of 1499 research documents. These studies have originated from 45 different countries, with China, South Korea, and the United States being the most prominent contributors, and the United States having the highest frequency of citations. Noteworthy research institutions involved in this field include Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Wonkwang University, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and Seoul National University. The Journal of Bone and Mineral Research is widely regarded as the premier and most frequently referenced publication in the field. These publications involve the collaboration of 8744 authors, with Lee Myeung Su contributing the most articles, and Takayanagi being the most co-cited author. Key emerging research focal points are encapsulated in keywords such as "mTOR," "BMSCs," "bone regeneration," and "exosome." The relationships between exosome from macrophage sources and those from BMSCs, along with the regulatory role of the mTOR signaling pathway on macrophages, represent crucial directions for future development in this field. This study represents the inaugural comprehensive bibliometric analysis detailing trends and advancements in macrophage research within the osteoporosis domain. It delineates recent frontiers and hotspots, providing valuable insights for researchers in this particular area of study.

Abstract
Fractures and bone nonunion commonly require surgical intervention. Serious outcomes of non-healing in the late stages of fracture place a significant financial burden on society and families. Bone nonunion occurs when a fracture stops healing, for many reasons, and leads to a variety of bad outcomes. Numerous factors, including biomechanics and immunology, are involved in the complicated mechanisms of bone nonunion. The immune-inflammatory response plays a significant part in the emergence of bone nonunion, and the occurrence, control, and remission of inflammation in the bone healing process have a significant influence on the ultimate success of bone tissue repair. In the bone microenvironment, immune cells and associated cytokines control bone repair, which is significantly influenced by macrophages, T cells, and fibroblast growth factor. To limit acute inflammation and balance osteogenesis and osteoblastogenesis for tissue repair and regeneration, immune cells and various cytokines in the local microenvironment must be precisely regulated. As a bad complication of late-stage fractures, bone nonunion has a significant effect on patients' quality of life and socioeconomic development. Therefore, in-depth research on its pathogenesis and treatment methods has important clinical value. To provide more precise, focused therapeutic options for the treatment of bone nonunion, we discuss the regulatory roles of the key immune cells engaged in bone healing within the microenvironment during bone healing and their effect on osteogenesis.

Differences in macrophage expression in induced membranes by fixation method - Masquelet technique using a mouse's femur critical-sized bone defect model. Injury 2024; 55:111135. [PMID: 37925281 DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2023.111135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2023] [Revised: 10/06/2023] [Accepted: 10/14/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Masquelet's induced membrane technique (MIMT) is an emerging method for reconstructing critical-sized bone defects. However, an incomplete understanding of the underlying biological and physical processes hinders further optimization. This study investigated the effect of different bone-defect fixation methods on macrophage expression in an induced membrane using a novel mouse plate-fixed Masquelet model. METHODS Mice were divided into Plate-fixed Masquelet (P-M), Intramedullary-fixed Masquelet (IM-M), Plate-fixed Control (P-C), and Back subfascial (B) groups. In the P-M and IM-M groups, a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) spacer was implanted into a 3 mm bone defect, while the defect in the P-C group remained unfilled. In group B, a spacer was inserted under the back fascia to examine membrane formation caused by a simple foreign body reaction. Tissues were collected at 1, 2, and 4 weeks postoperatively. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and immunohistochemistry (CD68 and CD163: macrophage markers) were performed to assess macrophage expression within the membrane. qPCR was performed to measure the expression of CD68, CD163, and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2). RESULTS Four weeks post-operation, the P-M group presented with minimal callus growth, whereas the IM-M group exhibited vigorous growth. The P-M and IM-M groups displayed a tri-layered membrane structure, which is consistent with the results of previous studies. The IM-M group had significantly thicker membranes, whereas the P-M group exhibited higher expression levels of CD68, CD163, and FGF2. Group P-C showed no osteogenesis, whereas group B maintained a thin, cell-dense membrane structure. The P-M group consistently showed higher gene expression levels than the P-C and P-B groups. CONCLUSION This study introduced a mouse plate fixation model for MIMT. The induced membranes could be adequately evaluated in this model. Induced membranes are formed by foreign body reactions to PMMA spacers; however, their properties are clearly different from those of simple foreign body reaction capsules and granulation tissues that infiltrate bone defects, suggesting that they are more complex tissues. The characteristics and expression of macrophages within these induced membranes varied according to the bone defect fixation method.

Abstract
Despite reductions in bacterial infection and enhanced success rate, the widespread use of systemic antibiotic prophylaxis in implant dentistry is controversial. This use has contributed to the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance, along with creating significant health and economic burdens. The basic mechanisms that cause implant infection can be targeted by new prevention and treatment methods which can also lead to the reduction of systemic antibiotic exposure and its associated adverse effects. This review aims to summarize advanced biomaterial strategies applied to implant components based on anti-pathogenic mechanisms and immune balance mechanisms. It emphasizes that modifying the dental implant surface and regulating the early immune response are promising strategies, which may further prevent or slow the development of peri-implant infection, and subsequent failure.

Abstract
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a multifaceted respiratory disorder characterized by progressive airflow limitation and systemic implications. It has become increasingly apparent that COPD exerts its influence far beyond the respiratory system, extending its impact to various organ systems. Among these, the musculoskeletal system emerges as a central player in both the pathogenesis and management of COPD and its associated comorbidities. Muscle dysfunction and osteoporosis are prevalent musculoskeletal disorders in COPD patients, leading to a substantial decline in exercise capacity and overall health. These manifestations are influenced by systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, and hormonal imbalances, all hallmarks of COPD. Recent research has uncovered an intricate interplay between COPD and musculoskeletal comorbidities, suggesting that muscle and bone tissues may cross-communicate through the release of signalling molecules, known as "myokines" and "osteokines". We explored this dynamic relationship, with a particular focus on the role of the immune system in mediating the cross-communication between muscle and bone in COPD. Moreover, we delved into existing and emerging therapeutic strategies for managing musculoskeletal disorders in COPD. It underscores the development of personalized treatment approaches that target both the respiratory and musculoskeletal aspects of COPD, offering the promise of improved well-being and quality of life for individuals grappling with this complex condition. This comprehensive review underscores the significance of recognizing the profound impact of COPD on the musculoskeletal system and its comorbidities. By unravelling the intricate connections between these systems and exploring innovative treatment avenues, we can aspire to enhance the overall care and outcomes for COPD patients, ultimately offering hope for improved health and well-being.

Abstract
Macrophages are key regulators in bone repair and regeneration. Recent studies have shown that long-term epigenetic changes and metabolic shifts occur during specific immune training of macrophages that affect their functional state, resulting in heightened (trained) or reduced (tolerant) responses upon exposure to a second stimulus. This is known as innate immune memory. Here, we study the impact of macrophages' memory trait on osteoblast differentiation of human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) and osteoclast differentiation. An in vitro trained immunity protocol of monocyte-derived macrophages was employed using inactivated Candida albicans and Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) to induce a 'trained' state and Pam3CSK4 (PAM) and Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) to induce a 'tolerance' state. Macrophages were subsequently cocultured with hMSCs undergoing osteogenic differentiation during either resting (unstimulated) or inflammatory conditions (restimulated with LPS). Alkaline phosphatase activity, mineralization, and cytokine levels (TNF, IL-6, oncostatin M and SDF-1α) were measured. In addition, macrophages underwent osteoclast differentiation. Our findings show that trained and tolerized macrophages induced opposing results. Under resting conditions, BCG-trained macrophages enhanced ALP levels (threefold), while under inflammatory conditions this was found in the LPS-tolerized macrophages (fourfold). Coculture of hMSCs with trained macrophages showed mineralization while tolerized macrophages inhibited the process under both resting and inflammatory conditions. While osteoclast differentiation was not affected in trained-macrophages, this ability was significantly loss in tolerized ones. This study further confirms the intricate cross talk between immune cells and bone cells, highlighting the need to consider this interaction in the development of personalized approaches for bone regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The rational design of hydrogel materials to modulate the immune microenvironment has emerged as a pivotal approach in expediting tissue repair and regeneration. Within the immune microenvironment, an array of immune cells exists, with macrophages gaining prominence in the field of tissue repair and regeneration due to their roles in cytokine regulation to promote regeneration, maintain tissue homeostasis, and facilitate repair. Macrophages can be categorized into two types: classically activated M1 (pro-inflammatory) and alternatively activated M2 (anti-inflammatory and pro-repair). By regulating the physical and chemical properties of hydrogels, the phenotypic transformation and cell behavior of macrophages can be effectively controlled, thereby promoting tissue regeneration and repair. A full understanding of the interaction between hydrogels and macrophages can provide new ideas and methods for future tissue engineering and clinical treatment. Therefore, this paper reviews the effects of hydrogel components, hardness, pore size, and surface morphology on cell behaviors such as macrophage proliferation, migration, and phenotypic polarization, and explores the application of hydrogels based on macrophage immune regulation in skin, bone, cartilage, and nerve tissue repair. Finally, the challenges and future prospects of macrophage-based immunomodulatory hydrogels are discussed.

Periplogenin attenuates LPS-mediated inflammatory osteolysis through the suppression of osteoclastogenesis via reducing the NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways. Cell Death Discov 2024; 10:86. [PMID: 38368392 PMCID: PMC10874423 DOI: 10.1038/s41420-024-01856-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/19/2024] Open
Abstract
The key target for treating inflammatory osteolysis is osteoclasts. In an inflammatory environment, osteoclast differentiation increases, and bone resorption is enhanced. Periplogenin (Ppg) is a traditional Chinese medicine. It has anti-inflammatory and antitumor effects, but its impact on inflammatory osteolysis is unknown. This study found that Ppg prevented LPS-induced skull osteolysis by inhibiting the expression of inflammatory cytokines and osteoclast production. In vitro, Ppg blocked the RANKL-induced generation of osteoclasts, the development of pseudopodia bands, and bone resorption. Ppg also attenuated the expression of NFATc1, c-Fos, CTSK, and Atp6v0d2 proteins by inhibiting the NFATc1 signaling pathway. In addition, Ppg inhibited the expression of osteoclast-specific genes, including NFATc1, c-Fos, CTSK, Atp6v0d2, and Mmp9. Moreover, Ppg also inhibited NF-κB and MAPK pathways. In vivo, Ppg reduced the number of osteoclasts on the surface of the bone and suppressed LPS-induced osteolysis of the skull. These outcomes suggest that Ppg can serve as a new alternative therapy for treating inflammatory osteolysis by inhibiting inflammation and osteoclasts.

Abstract
Despite decades of progress, developing minimally invasive bone-specific drug delivery systems (DDS) to improve fracture healing remains a significant clinical challenge. To address this critical therapeutic need, nanoparticle (NP) DDS comprised of poly(styrene-alt-maleic anhydride)-b-poly(styrene) (PSMA-b-PS) functionalized with a peptide that targets tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) and achieves preferential fracture accumulation has been developed. The delivery of AR28, a glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK3β) inhibitor, via the TRAP binding peptide-NP (TBP-NP) expedites fracture healing. Interestingly, however, NPs are predominantly taken up by fracture-associated macrophages rather than cells typically associated with fracture healing. Therefore, the underlying mechanism of healing via TBP-NP is comprehensively investigated herein. TBP-NPAR28 promotes M2 macrophage polarization and enhances osteogenesis in preosteoblast-macrophage co-cultures in vitro. Longitudinal analysis of TBP-NPAR28 -mediated fracture healing reveals distinct spatial distributions of M2 macrophages, an increased M2/M1 ratio, and upregulation of anti-inflammatory and downregulated pro-inflammatory genes compared to controls. This work demonstrates the underlying therapeutic mechanism of bone-targeted NP DDS, which leverages macrophages as druggable targets and modulates M2 macrophage polarization to enhance fracture healing, highlighting the therapeutic benefit of this approach for fractures and bone-associated diseases.

Abstract
A fundamental understanding of inflammation and tissue healing suggests that the precise regulation of the inflammatory phase, both in terms of location and timing, is crucial for bone regeneration. However, achieving the activation of early inflammation without causing chronic inflammation while facilitating quick inflammation regression to promote bone regeneration continues to pose challenges. This study reveals that black phosphorus (BP) accelerates bone regeneration by building an osteogenic immunological microenvironment. BP amplifies the acute pro-inflammatory response and promotes the secretion of anti-inflammatory factors to accelerate inflammation regression and tissue regeneration. Mechanistically, BP creates an osteoimmune-friendly microenvironment by stimulating macrophages to express interleukin 33 (IL-33), amplifying the inflammatory response at an early stage, and promoting the regression of inflammation. In addition, BP-mediated IL-33 expression directly promotes osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), which further facilitates bone repair. To the knowledge, this is the first study to reveal the immunomodulatory potential of BP in bone regeneration through the regulation of both early-stage inflammatory responses and later-stage inflammation resolution, along with the associated molecular mechanisms. This discovery serves as a foundation for the clinical use of BP and is an efficient approach for managing the immune microenvironment during bone regeneration.

Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic metabolic skeletal disorder characterized by a decline in bone mass, bone mineral density, and deterioration of bone microstructure. It is prevalent among the elderly, particularly postmenopausal women, and poses a substantial burden to patients and society due to the high incidence of fragility fractures. Kidney-tonifying Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has long been utilized for OP prevention and treatment. In contrast to conventional approaches such as hormone replacement therapy, TCM offers distinct advantages such as minimal side effects, low toxicity, excellent tolerability, and suitability for long-term administration. Extensive experimental evidence supports the efficacy of kidney-tonifying TCM, exemplified by formulations based on the renowned herb Cornus officinalis and its bioactive constituents, including morroniside, sweroside, flavonol kaempferol, Cornuside I, in OP treatment. In this review, we provide a comprehensive elucidation of the underlying pathological principles governing OP, with particular emphasis on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, the homeostasis of osteogenic and osteoclastic, and the regulation of vascular and immune systems, all of which critically influence bone homeostasis. Furthermore, the therapeutic mechanisms of Cornus officinalis-based TCM formulations and Cornus officinalis-derived active constituents are discussed. In conclusion, this review aims to enhance understanding of the pharmacological mechanisms responsible for the anti-OP effects of kidney-tonifying TCM, specifically focusing on Cornus officinalis, and seeks to explore more efficacious and safer treatment strategies for OP.

Abstract
AIMS As the process of bone regeneration is preceded by an inflammatory response, the immune system has long been considered important for fracture healing. Despite many studies on the contribution of immune cells to bone-related diseases, the role of immune cells in the regeneration therapy of lost bone is not well understood. In addition, various types of cells are involved in the clinical bone regeneration environment, but most of the osteo-biology studies are conducted in an osteoblast-only environment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Here, we investigated the effects of macrophages and dendritic cells on osteogenic differentiation in a co-culture environment involving human periosteal cell-derived osteoblasts, human monocyte-derived osteoclasts, and myeloid-derived cells. In addition, the cluster of myeloid immune cells involved in the clinical bone regeneration process was analyzed through bone defect rat modeling. KEY FINDINGS We found that specific types of myeloid cells and related cytokines increased osteogenic differentiation. These results were confirmed in experiments using myeloid cells originating from human primitive peripheral blood mononuclear cells and by measuring the colonization of macrophages and dendritic cells in an in vivo bone defect environment. In addition, Next generation sequencing (NGS) analysis was performed through RNA sequencing for osteogenesis caused by macrophages and dendritic cells in vitro, which implemented a clinical bone regeneration environment. The results of these experiments suggest that the role of M2 macrophages or dendritic cells is markedly increased during osteogenic differentiation. Therefore, we propose that the exchange of bioactive factors between macrophages and dendritic cells during the bone formation metabolic process is a crucial step of tissue regeneration rather than limited to the initial inflammatory response. SIGNIFICANCE This study indicates that M2 macrophages, among myeloid cells, can be mediators that play a vital role in the effective bone regeneration process and shows the potential as a useful next-generation advanced cell therapy for bone regeneration treatment.

Abstract
Enhancing osteogenesis via modulating immune cells is emerging as a new approach to address the current challenges in repairing bone defects and fractures. However, much remains unknown about the crosstalk between immune cells and osteolineage cells during bone formation. Moreover, biomaterial scaffold-based approaches to effectively modulate this crosstalk to favor bone healing are also lacking. This study is the first to investigate the interactions between macrophages and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in co-cultures with the sustained release of an anti-inflammatory and pro-osteogenesis drug (dexamethasone) from three-dimensional (3D)-printed scaffolds. We successfully achieved the sustained release of dexamethasone from polycaprolactone (PCL) by adding the excipient-sucrose acetate isobutyrate (SAIB). Dexamethasone was released over 35 days in the 17-163 nM range. The osteogenic differentiation of MSCs was enhanced by M1 macrophages at early time points. The late-stage mineralization was dominated by dexamethasone, with little contribution from the macrophages. Besides confirming BMP-2 whose secretion was promoted by both dexamethasone and M1 macrophages as a soluble mediator for enhanced osteogenesis, IL-6 was found to be a possible new soluble factor that mediated osteogenesis in macrophage-MSC co-cultures. The phenotype switching from M1 to M2 was drastically enhanced by the scaffold-released dexamethasone but only marginally by the co-cultured MSCs. Our results offer new insight into macrophage-MSC crosstalk and demonstrate the potential of using drug-release scaffolds to both modulate inflammation and enhance bone regeneration.

Abstract
Degenerative musculoskeletal diseases are structural and functional failures of the musculoskeletal system, including osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), and sarcopenia. As the global population ages, degenerative musculoskeletal diseases are becoming more prevalent. However, the pathogenesis of degenerative musculoskeletal diseases is not fully understood. Previous studies have revealed that endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is a stress response that occurs when impairment of the protein folding capacity of the ER leads to the accumulation of misfolded or unfolded proteins in the ER, contributing to degenerative musculoskeletal diseases. By affecting cartilage degeneration, synovitis, meniscal lesion, subchondral bone remodeling of osteoarthritis, bone remodeling and angiogenesis of osteoporosis, nucleus pulposus degeneration, annulus fibrosus rupture, cartilaginous endplate degeneration of IVDD, and sarcopenia, ER stress is involved in the pathogenesis of degenerative musculoskeletal diseases. Preclinical studies have found that regulation of ER stress can delay the progression of multiple degenerative musculoskeletal diseases. These pilot studies provide foundations for further evaluation of the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of ER stress modulators in the treatment of musculoskeletal degenerative diseases in clinical trials. In this review, we have integrated up-to-date research findings of ER stress into the pathogenesis of degenerative musculoskeletal diseases. In a future perspective, we have also discussed possible directions of ER stress in the investigation of degenerative musculoskeletal disease, potential therapeutic strategies for degenerative musculoskeletal diseases using ER stress modulators, as well as underlying challenges and obstacles in bench-to-beside research.

Abstract
There is a high incidence of fractures in clinical practice and therapy. The repairment of critical size defects in the skeletal system remains a huge challenge for surgeons and researchers, which can be overcame by the application of bone tissue-engineered biomaterials. An increasing number of investigations have revealed that the immune system plays a vital role in the repair of bone defects, especially macrophages, which can modulate the integration of biomaterials and bone regeneration in multiple ways. Therefore, it has become increasingly important in regenerative medicine to regulate macrophage polarization to prevent inflammation caused by biomaterial implantation. Recent studies have stressed the importance of hydrogel-based modifications and the incorporation of various cellular and molecular signals for regulating immune responses to promote bone tissue regeneration and integrate biomaterials. In this review, we first elaborate briefly on the described the general physiological mechanism and process of bone tissue regeneration. Then, we summarized the immunomodulatory role macrophages play in bone repair. In addition, the role of hydrogel-based immune modification targeting macrophage modulation in accelerating and enhancing bone tissue regeneration was also discussed. Finally, we highlighted future directions and research strategies related to hydrogel optimization for the regulation of the immune response during bone regeneration and healing.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by diseases or surgery are a common clinical problem. Researchers are devoted to finding biological mechanisms that accelerate bone defect repair, which is a complex and continuous process controlled by many factors. As members of transcriptional costimulatory molecules, Yes-associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional co-activator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ) play an important regulatory role in osteogenesis, and they affect cell function by regulating the expression of osteogenic genes in osteogenesis-related cells. Macrophages are an important group of cells whose function is regulated by YAP/TAZ. Currently, the relationship between YAP/TAZ and macrophage polarization has attracted increasing attention. In bone tissue, YAP/TAZ can realize diverse osteogenic regulation by mediating macrophage polarization. Macrophages polarize into M1 and M2 phenotypes under different stimuli. M1 macrophages dominate the inflammatory response by releasing a number of inflammatory mediators in the early phase of bone defect repair, while massive aggregation of M2 macrophages is beneficial for inflammation resolution and tissue repair, as they secrete many anti-inflammatory and osteogenesis-related cytokines. The mechanism of YAP/TAZ-mediated macrophage polarization during osteogenesis warrants further study and it is likely to be a promising strategy for bone defect repair. In this article, we review the effect of Hippo-YAP/TAZ signaling and macrophage polarization on bone defect repair, and highlight the regulation of macrophage polarization by YAP/TAZ.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1133547. [PMID: 37576988 PMCID: PMC10415109 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1133547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 06/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to explore the effect of biomaterials with different stiffness on Adipose Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ADSC)-macrophage crosstalk in bone tissue engineering and its role in bone repair. Methods: Biomaterials with Young's modulus of 64 and 0.2 kPa were selected, and the crosstalk between ADSCs and macrophages was investigated by means of conditioned medium treatment and cell co-culture, respectively. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the polarization of macrophages. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red staining (ARS) solutions were used to evaluate the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs. Transwell assay was used to evaluate the chemotaxis of ADSCs and macrophages. Moreover, mass spectrometry proteomics was used to analyze the secreted protein profile of ADSCs of different substrates and macrophages in different polarization states. Results: On exploring the influence of biomaterials on macrophages from ADSCs on different substrates, we found that CD163 and CD206 expression levels in macrophages were significantly higher in the 64-kPa group than in the 0.2-kPa group in conditioned medium treatment and cell co-culture. Flow cytometry showed that more cells became CD163+ or CD206+ cells in the 64-kPa group under conditioned medium treatment or cell co-culture. The Transwell assay showed that more macrophages migrated to the lower chamber in the 64-kPa group. The proteomic analysis found that ADSCs in the 64-kPa group secreted more immunomodulatory proteins, such as LBP and RBP4, to improve the repair microenvironment. On exploring the influence of biomaterials on ADSCs from macrophages in different polarization states, we found that ALP and ARS levels in ADSCs were significantly higher in the M2 group than in the other three groups (NC, M0, and M1 groups) in both conditioned medium treatment and cell co-culture. The Transwell assay showed that more ADSCs migrated to the lower chamber in the M2 group. The proteomic analysis found that M2 macrophages secreted more extracellular remodeling proteins, such as LRP1, to promote bone repair. Conclusion: In bone tissue engineering, the stiffness of repair biomaterials can affect the crosstalk between ADSCs and macrophages, thereby regulating local repair immunity and affecting bone repair.

Abstract
Introduction The purpose of the study was to evaluate and compare the levels of salivary Interleukin-6 (IL-6) before and after the placement of dental implants in patients who are supplemented with nitric oxide (NO). Materials and Methods The study comprised 34 patients, divided into control and study groups (17 in each group). The control group was given a placebo and in the study group, nitric oxide supplement was prescribed, whereas the control group received a placebo. Saliva samples were taken before placement of dental implants, first and third day after the implant placement. The levels of salivary IL-6 were assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay test. Results Statistical analysis showed a significant P value (<0.05) with respect to IL-6 levels on first and third days after placement of dental implants. Salivary IL-6 levels in the study group declined significantly. On day three, the IL-6 values for the control and study groups were 0.0639 and 0.0443, respectively. Within the groups, it was observed that there was a significant decrease in IL-6 values from day one to day three. Discussion The levels of salivary IL-6 reduced from day one to day three more significantly and consistently in patients prescribed with NO supplements post-dental implant placement, suggesting better resolution of inflammation.

Abstract
Novel minimally invasive strategies are needed to obtain robust bone healing in complex fractures and bone defects in the elderly population. Local cell therapy is one potential option for future treatment. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are not only involved in osteogenesis but also help direct the recruitment of macrophages during bone regeneration via MSC-macrophage crosstalk. The C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) is an inflammatory chemokine that is associated with the migration of macrophages and MSCs during inflammation. This study investigated the use of CCL2 as a therapeutic target for local cell therapy. MSCs and macrophages were isolated from 10 to 12 week-old BALB/c male mice. Genetically modified CCL2 over-expressing MSCs were produced using murine CCL2-secreting pCDH-CMV-mCCL2-copGFP expressing lentivirus vector. Osteogenic differentiation assays were performed using MSCs with or without macrophages in co-culture. Cell migration assays were also performed. MSCs transfected with murine CCL2-secreting pCDH-CMV-mCCL2-copGFP expressing lentivirus vector showed higher levels of CCL2 secretion compared to unaltered MSCs (p < 0.05). Genetic manipulation did not affect cell proliferation. CCL2 did not affect the osteogenic ability of MSCs alone. However, acute (1 day) but not sustained (7 days) stimulation with CCL2 increased the alizarin red-positive area when MSCs were co-cultured with macrophages (p < 0.001). Both recombinant CCL2 (p < 0.05) and CCL2 released from MSCs (p < 0.05) facilitated macrophage migration. We demonstrated that acute CCL2 stimulation promoted subsequent osteogenesis in co-culture of MSCs and macrophages. Acute CCL2 stimulation potentially facilitates osteogenesis during the acute inflammatory phase of bone healing by directing local macrophage migration, fostering macrophage-MSC crosstalk, and subsequently, by activating or licensing of MSCs by macrophage pro-inflammatory cytokines. The combination of CCL2, MSCs, and macrophages could be a potential strategy for local cell therapy in compromised bone healing.

Evaluation of silver bio-functionality in a multicellular in vitro model: towards reduced animal usage in implant-associated infection research. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2023; 13:1186936.

Abstract
Background Despite the extensive use of silver ions or nanoparticles in research related to preventing implant-associated infections (IAI), their use in clinical practice has been debated. This is because the strong antibacterial properties of silver are counterbalanced by adverse effects on host cells. One of the reasons for this may be the lack of comprehensive in vitro models that are capable of analyzing host-bacteria and host-host interactions. Methods and results In this study, we tested silver efficacy through multicellular in vitro models involving macrophages (immune system), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs, bone cells), and S. aureus (pathogen). Our model showed to be capable of identifying each element of culture as well as tracking the intracellular survival of bacteria. Furthermore, the model enabled to find a therapeutic window for silver ions (AgNO3) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) where the viability of host cells was not compromised, and the antibacterial properties of silver were maintained. While AgNO3 between 0.00017 and 0.017 µg/mL retained antibacterial properties, host cell viability was not affected. The multicellular model, however, demonstrated that those concentrations had no effect on the survival of S. aureus, inside or outside host cells. Similarly, treatment with 20 nm AgNPs did not influence the phagocytic and killing capacity of macrophages or prevent S. aureus from invading MSCs. Moreover, exposure to 100 nm AgNPs elicited an inflammatory response by host cells as detected by the increased production of TNF-α and IL-6. This was visible only when macrophages and MSCs were cultured together. Conclusions Multicellular in vitro models such as the one used here that simulate complex in vivo scenarios can be used to screen other therapeutic compounds or antibacterial biomaterials without the need to use animals.

Abstract
Aging of the global population increases the incidence of osteoporosis and associated fragility fractures, significantly impacting patient quality of life and healthcare costs. The acute inflammatory reaction is essential to initiate healing after injury. However, aging is associated with "inflammaging", referring to the presence of systemic low-level chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation impairs the initiation of bone regeneration in elderly patients. This review examines current knowledge of the bone regeneration process and potential immunomodulatory therapies to facilitate bone healing in inflammaging.Aged macrophages show increased sensitivity and responsiveness to inflammatory signals. While M1 macrophages are activated during the acute inflammatory response, proper resolution of the inflammatory phase involves repolarizing pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages to an anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype associated with tissue regeneration. In aging, persistent chronic inflammation resulting from the failure of M1 to M2 repolarization leads to increased osteoclast activation and decreased osteoblast formation, thus increasing bone resorption and decreasing bone formation during healing.Inflammaging can impair the ability of stem cells to support bone regeneration and contributes to the decline in bone mass and strength that occurs with aging. Therefore, modulating inflammaging is a promising approach for improving bone health in the aging population. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess immunomodulatory properties that may benefit bone regeneration in inflammation. Preconditioning MSCs with pro-inflammatory cytokines affects MSCs' secretory profile and osteogenic ability. MSCs cultured under hypoxic conditions show increased proliferation rates and secretion of growth factors. Resolution of inflammation via local delivery of anti-inflammatory cytokines is also a potential therapy for bone regeneration in inflammaging. Scaffolds containing anti-inflammatory cytokines, unaltered MSCs, and genetically modified MSCs can also have therapeutic potential. MSC exosomes can increase the migration of MSCs to the fracture site and enhance osteogenic differentiation and angiogenesis.In conclusion, inflammaging can impair the proper initiation of bone regeneration in the elderly. Modulating inflammaging is a promising approach for improving compromised bone healing in the aging population.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of osteoporosis involves multiple factors, among which alterations in the bone microenvironment play a crucial role in disrupting normal bone metabolic balance. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 5 (TRPV5), a member of the TRPV family, is an essential determinant of the bone microenvironment, acting at multiple levels to influence its properties. TRPV5 exerts a pivotal influence on bone through the regulation of calcium reabsorption and transportation while also responding to steroid hormones and agonists. Although the metabolic consequences of osteoporosis, such as loss of bone calcium, reduced mineralization capacity, and active osteoclasts, have received significant attention, this review focuses on the changes in the osteoporotic microenvironment and the specific effects of TRPV5 at various levels.

Abstract
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has 37 amino acids. Initially, CGRP had vasodilatory and nociceptive effects. As research progressed, evidence revealed that the peripheral nervous system is closely associated with bone metabolism, osteogenesis, and bone remodeling. Thus, CGRP is the bridge between the nervous system and the skeletal muscle system. CGRP can promote osteogenesis, inhibit bone resorption, promote vascular growth, and regulate the immune microenvironment. The G protein-coupled pathway is vital for its effects, while MAPK, Hippo, NF-κB, and other pathways have signal crosstalk, affecting cell proliferation and differentiation. The current review provides a detailed description of the bone repair effects of CGRP, subjected to several therapeutic studies, such as drug injection, gene editing, and novel bone repair materials.

Abstract
Macrophages, the major component of the mononuclear phagocyte system, uptake and clear systemically administered nanoparticles (NPs). Therefore, leveraging macrophages as a druggable target may be advantageous to enhance NP-mediated drug delivery. Despite many studies focused on NP-cell interactions, NP-mediated macrophage polarization mechanisms are still poorly understood. This work aimed to explore the effect of NP physicochemical parameters (size and charge) on macrophage polarization. Upon exposure to biological fluids, proteins rapidly adsorb to NPs and form protein coronas. To this end, we hypothesized that NP protein coronas govern NP-macrophage interactions, uptake, and subsequent macrophage polarization. To test this hypothesis, model polystyrene NPs with various charges and sizes, as well as NPs relevant to drug delivery, were utilized. Data suggest that cationic NPs potentiate both M1 and M2 macrophage markers, while anionic NPs promote M1-to-M2 polarization. Additionally, anionic polystyrene nanoparticles (APNs) of 50 nm exhibit the greatest influence on M2 polarization. Proteomics was pursued to further understand the effect of NPs physicochemical parameters on protein corona, which revealed unique protein patterns based on NP charge and size. Several proteins impacting M1 and M2 macrophage polarization were identified within cationic polystyrene nanoparticles (CPNs) corona, while APNs corona included fewer M1 but more M2-promoting proteins. Nevertheless, size impacts protein corona abundance but not identities. Altogether, protein corona identities varied based on NP surface charge and correlated to dramatic differences in macrophage polarization. In contrast, NP size differentially impacts macrophage polarization, which is dominated by NP uptake level rather than protein corona. In this work, specific corona proteins were identified as a function of NP physicochemical properties. These proteins are correlated to specific macrophage polarization programs and may provide design principles for developing macrophage-mediated NP drug delivery systems.

Abstract
Objectives Alpha-ketoglutarate (αKG) is an essential metabolite that plays a crucial role in skeletal homeostasis. Here we aim to investigate the effect of αKG on alveolar socket healing and reveal the underlying mechanism in the view of macrophage polarization. Methods In a murine model pretreated with or without αKG, mandibular first molars were extracted. Mandibular tissues were harvested for microCT and histological analyses. Immunofluorescence was used to evaluate macrophage polarization during healing process. Macrophages with αKG/vehicle supplementation in vitro were proceeded to quantitative real-time PCR and flow cytometry to further elucidate the mechanism. Results MicroCT and histological analyses showed accelerated healing and enhanced bone regeneration of extraction sockets in experimental group. αKG increased new bone volume in alveolar sockets and promoted the activity of both osteoblastogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. αKG administration reduced M1 pro-inflammatory macrophages in an early phase and promoted anti-inflammatory M2 macrophage polarization in a later phase. Consistently, the expressions of M2 marker genes were augmented in αKG group, while M1 marker genes were downregulated. Flow cytometry revealed the increased ratio of M2/M1 macrophages in cells treated with αKG. Conclusions αKG accelerates the healing process of extraction sockets via orchestrating macrophage activation, with promising therapeutic potential in oral clinics.

Abstract
Bone tissue regeneration plays an increasingly important role in contemporary clinical treatment. The reconstruction of bone defects remains a huge challenge for clinicians. Bone regeneration is regulated by the immune system, in which inflammation is an important regulating factor in bone formation and remodeling. As the main cells involved in inflammation, macrophages play a key role in osteogenesis by polarizing into different phenotypes during different stages of bone regeneration. Considering this, this review mainly summarizes the function of macrophage in bone regeneration based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and vascular cells. In conclusion, anti-inflammatory macrophages (M2) have a greater potentiality to promote bone regeneration than M0 and classically activated proinflammatory macrophages (M1). In the fracture and bone defect models, tissue engineering materials can induce the transition from M1 to M2, alter the bone microenvironment, and promote bone regeneration through interactions with bone-related cells and blood vessels. The review provides a further understanding of macrophage polarization behavior in the evolving field of bone immunology.

Abstract
Innate immune responses play important roles in material-induced bone formation and such roles were further explored in the current study with an emphasis on M2 macrophages and osteoclastogenesis. With the presence of M-CSF and RANKL, M0 macrophages from FVB mouse bone marrow-derived monocytes (BMMs) fused to osteoclasts with both M2 marker and osteoclast marker at day 5, and such osteoclast formation at day 5 was enhanced when the cells were treated with IL-4 at day 3. With IL-4 treatment alone for 24 h, M0 polarized into M2 macrophages. Conditioned medium of M2 macrophages enhanced osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 (pre-osteoblasts) while osteoclast conditioned medium enhanced osteogenic differentiation of CRL-12424 (osteogenic precursors). TCPs (a typical osteoinductive material) supported M2 macrophage polarization at day 4 and osteoclast formation at day 5, while TCPb (a typical non-osteoinductive material) was less effective. Moreover, osteoclasts formed on TCPs produced osteogenic factors including S1P, Wnt10B and BMP-6, resulting osteogenic differentiation of CRL-12424 cells. Similar to in vitro testing, TCPs favored M2 macrophage polarization followed by the formation of osteoclasts in vivo, as compared to TCPb. The overall data provided evidence of a coupling between M2 macrophages, osteoclasts and material-induced bone formation: osteoclasts formed from M2 macrophages secrete osteogenic cytokines to induce osteogenic differentiation of osteogenic precursor cells to finally form bone. The current findings outlined a biological mechanism of material-induced bone formation and further rationalized the use of osteoinductive materials for bone regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This paper provides evidence for finding out the relationship between M2 macrophages, osteoclasts and osteogenesis in material-induced bone formation. It suggested that osteoinductive materials enhanced macrophage polarization to M2 macrophages which fuses to osteoclasts, osteoclasts subsequently secret osteogenic cytokines to differentiate finally osteogenic precursors to form bone in osteoinductive materials. The data supports scientifically the superiority of osteoinductive materials for bone regeneration in clinics.

Abstract
In the field of biomaterials, an endosseous implant is now recognized as an osteoimmunomodulatory but not bioinert biomaterial. Scientific advances in bone cell biology and in immunology have revealed a close relationship between the bone and immune systems resulting in a field of science called osteoimmunology. These discoveries have allowed for a novel interpretation of osseointegration as representing an osteoimmune reaction rather than a classic bone healing response, in which the activation state of macrophages ((M1-M2 polarization) appears to play a critical role. Through this viewpoint, the immune system is responsible for isolating the implant biomaterial foreign body by forming bone around the oral implant effectively shielding off the implant from the host bone system, i.e. osseointegration becomes a continuous and dynamic host defense reaction. At the same time, this has led to the proposal of a new model of osseointegration, the foreign body equilibrium (FBE). In addition, as an oral wound, the soft tissues are involved with all their innate immune characteristics. When implant integration is viewed as an osteoimmune reaction, this has implications for how marginal bone is regulated. For example, while bacteria are constitutive components of the soft tissue sulcus, if the inflammatory front and immune reaction is at some distance from the marginal bone, an equilibrium is established. If however, this inflammation approaches the marginal bone, an immune osteoclastic reaction occurs and marginal bone is removed. A number of clinical scenarios can be envisioned whereby the osteoimmune equilibrium is disturbed and marginal bone loss occurs, such as complications of aseptic nature and the synergistic activation of pro-inflammatory pathways (implant/wear debris, DAMPs, and PAMPs). Understanding that an implant is a foreign body and that the host reacts osteoimmunologically to shield off the implant allows for a distinction to be drawn between osteoimmunological conditions and peri-implant bone loss. This review will examine dental implant placement as an osteoimmune reaction and its implications for marginal bone loss.

Abstract
Tomographic volumetric bioprinting (VBP) has recently emerged as a powerful tool for rapid solidification of cell-laden hydrogel constructs within seconds. However, its practical applications in tissue engineering requires a detailed understanding of how different printing parameters (concentration of resins, laser dose) affect cell activity and tissue formation. Herein, we explore a new application of VBP in bone tissue engineering by merging a soft gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) bioresin (<5 kPa) with 3D endothelial co-culture to generate heterocellular bone-like constructs with enhanced functionality. To this, a series of bioresins with varying concentrations of GelMA and lithium Phenyl(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphinate (LAP) photoinitiator were formulated and characterized in terms of photo-reactivity, printability and cell-compatibility. A bioresin with 5% GelMA and 0.05% LAP was identified as the optimal formulation for VBP of complex perfusable constructs within 30 s at high cell viability (>90%). The fidelity was validated by micro-computed tomography and confocal microscopy. Compared to 10% GelMA, this bioresin provided a softer and more permissive environment for osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). The expression of osteoblastic markers (collagen-I, ALP, osteocalcin) and osteocytic markers (podoplanin, Dmp1) was monitored for 42 days. After 21 days, early osteocytic markers were significantly increased in 3D co-cultures of hMSCs with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Additionally, we demonstrate VBP of a perfusable, pre-vascularized model where HUVECs self-organized into an endothelium-lined channel. Altogether, this work leverages the benefits of VBP and 3D co-culture, offering a promising platform for fast scaled biofabrication of 3D bone-like tissues with unprecedented functionality. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This study explores new strategies for ultrafast bio-manufacturing of bone tissue models by leveraging the advantages of tomographic volumetric bioprinting (VBP) and endothelial co-culture. After screening the properties of a series of photocurable gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) bioresins, a formulation with 5% GelMA was identified with optimal printability and permissiveness for osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). We then established 3D endothelial co-cultures to test if the heterocellular interactions may enhance the osteogenic differentiation in the printed environments. This hypothesis was evidenced by increased gene expression of early osteocytic markers in 3D co-cultures after 21 days. Finally, VBP of a perfusable cell-laden tissue construct is demonstrated for future applications in vascularized tissue engineering.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a fibrogenic and inflammatory process that results from hepatocyte injury and is characterized by hepatic architectural distortion and resultant loss of liver function. There is no effective treatment for advanced fibrosis other than liver transplantation, but it is limited by expensive costs, immune rejection, and postoperative complications. With the development of regenerative medicine in recent years, mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) transplantation has become the most promising treatment for liver fibrosis. The underlying mechanisms of MSC anti-fibrotic effects include hepatocyte differentiation, paracrine, and immunomodulation, with immunomodulation playing a central role. This review discusses the immune cells involved in liver fibrosis, the immunomodulatory properties of MSCs, and the immunomodulation mechanisms of MSC-based strategies to attenuate liver fibrosis. Meanwhile, we discuss the current challenges and future directions as well.

Abstract
Background Bone defect repair by implanting bone substitute materials has been a common clinical treatment. With the understanding of substance-immune system interactions and increasing evidence indicating that the post-implantation immune response determines the fate of bone substitute materials, active modulation of host macrophage polarization is considered a promising strategy. However, whether the same regulatory effects exist when an individual immune system is altered with aging is unclear. Methods In this study, we mechanistically investigated the effect of immunosenescence on the active regulation of macrophage polarization by establishing a cranial bone defect model in young and aged rats implanted with Bio-Oss®. Forty-eight young and 48 aged specific pathogen-free (SPF) male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups. In the experimental group, 20 μL of IL-4 (0.5 μg/mL) was injected locally on the third to seventh postoperative days, while an equal volume of PBS was injected in the control group. Specimens were collected at 1, 2, 6, and 12 weeks postoperatively, and bone regeneration at the defect site was evaluated by micro-CT, histomorphometry, immunohistochemistry, double-labeling immunofluorescence, and RT-qPCR. Results The application of exogenous IL-4 reduced activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes by promoting the polarization of M1 macrophages to M2 macrophages, thus promoting bone regeneration at the site of bone defects in aged rats. However, this effect was gradually weakened after the IL-4 intervention was discontinued. Conclusion Our data confirmed that a strategy to regulate macrophage polarization is also feasible under conditions of immunosenescence, i.e., the local inflammatory microenvironment can be regulated by reducing M1-type macrophages. However, further experiments are needed to determine an exogenous IL-4 intervention that can maintain a more sustained effect.

Abstract
Macrophages are a heterogeneous population of immune cells that exhibit dynamic plasticity, polarize into inflammatory or regulatory/pro-resolving macrophages, and influence the healing tissue microenvironment. This study evaluated the in-vitro morphological, proliferative, cell surface marker expression and cytokine/soluble factor secretion characteristics of control, GM-CSF pretreated and inflammatory (LPS+IFN-γ) and regulatory (IL-4 + IL-10) differentiated equine CD14+ monocyte-derived macrophages. Phase contrast microscopy demonstrated that LPS+IFN-γ-primed macrophages exhibited a rounded, granular morphology, whereas IL-4 +IL-10-primed macrophages were elongated with a spindle-shaped morphology. GM-CSF enhanced the proliferation rate of monocytes/macrophages during adherent in-vitro culture. Flow cytometry analysis showed that GM-CSF alone and GM-CSF pretreatment with LPS+IFN-γ or IL-4 +IL-10 priming increased CD86 immunopositivity by 2-fold (p = 0.6); and CD206 immunopositivity remained unchanged. GM-CSF pretreatment and subsequent priming with LPS and IFN-γ yielded inflammatory macrophages that secrete significantly increased quantities of IL-1β compared to control (p = 0.012) and IL-4 +IL-10-primed (p = 0.0047) macrophages. GM-CSF pretreatment followed by both LPS + IFN-γ and IL-4 + IL-10 priming significantly increased IL-1Ra secretion by 6-fold (p < 0.05). There were no differences in TGFβ-1 secretion among control, LPS+IFN-γ or IL-4 + IL-10 primed macrophages (p = 0.85). All groups contained an average of 643 ± 51.5 pg/mL of TGFβ1. Among the culture conditions evaluated, IL-4 +IL-10 priming for 24 h after 6 days of adherent culture yielded macrophages that were the least inflammatory compared to GM-CSF pretreated and LPS+IFN-γ or IL-4 +IL-10-primed macrophages. These results provide a basis for subsequent in-vitro and in-vivo studies that investigate macrophage-tissue cell interactions and related biological mechanisms relevant to the field of immunomodulatory approaches for enhancing tissue healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several factors like three-dimensional microstructure, growth factors, cytokines, cell-cell communication, and coculture with functional cells can affect the stem cells behavior and differentiation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential of decellularized placental sponge as adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) and macrophage coculture systems, and guiding the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. METHODS The decellularized placental sponge (DPS) was fabricated, and its mechanical characteristics were evaluated using degradation assay, swelling rate, and pore size determination. Its structure was also investigated using hematoxylin and eosin staining and scanning electron microscopy. Mouse peritoneal macrophages and AD-MSCs were isolated and characterized. The differentiation potential of AD-MSCs co-cultured with macrophages was evaluated by RT-qPCR of osteogenic genes on the surface of DPS. The in vivo biocompatibility of DPS was determined by subcutaneous implantation of scaffold and histological evaluations of the implanted site. RESULTS The DPS had 67% porosity with an average pore size of 238 μm. The in vitro degradation assay showed around 25% weight loss during 30 days in PBS. The swelling rate was around 50% during 72 h. The coculture of AD-MSCs/macrophages on the DPS showed a significant upregulation of four differentiation osteogenic lineage genes in AD-MSCs on days 14 and 21 and a significantly higher mineralization rate than the groups without DPS. Subcutaneous implantation of DPS showed in vivo biocompatibility of scaffold during 28 days follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest the decellularized placental sponge as an excellent bone substitute providing a naturally derived matrix substrate with biostructure close to the natural bone that guided differentiation of stem cells toward bone cells and a promising coculture substrate for crosstalk of macrophage and mesenchymal stem cells in vitro.

Abstract
The host immune response to biomaterials is critical for determining scaffold fate and bone regeneration outcomes. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted scaffolds encapsulated with living cells can improve the inflammatory microenvironment and further accelerate bone repair. Here, we screened and adopted 8% methacrylamidated gelatin (GelMA)/1% methacrylamidated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) as the encapsulation system for rat bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs) and 3% Alginate/0.5 mg/mL graphene oxide (GO) as the encapsulation system for rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), thus forming a dual-channel bioprinting scaffold. The 8% GelMA/1% HAMA/3% Alginate/0.5 mg/mL GO (8/1/3/0.5) group could form a scaffold with a stable structure, good mechanical properties, and satisfied biocompatibility. When exploring the crosstalk between BMMs and BMSCs in vitro, we found that BMSCs could promote the polarization of BMMs to M2 type at the early stage, reduce the pro-inflammatory gene expression, and increase anti-inflammatory gene expression; conversely, BMMs can promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. In addition, in the model of rat calvarial defects, the dual-channel scaffold encapsulated with BMMs and BMSCs was more effective than the single-cell scaffold and the acellular scaffold. The paracrine of BMMs and BMSCs in the biodegradable dual-channel scaffold effectively promoted the M2-type polarization of macrophages in the microenvironment of early bone defects, avoided excessive inflammatory responses, and further promoted bone repair. In conclusion, our findings suggested that using 3D bioprinting to simultaneously encapsulate two primary cells of BMMs and BMSCs in a dual-channel system may be an effective way to promote bone repair from the perspective of early immune regulation and late induction of osteogenesis.

Abstract
Extraordinary capabilities underlie the potential use of immune cells, particularly macrophages, in bone tissue engineering. Indeed, the depletion of macrophages during bone repair often culminates in disease scenarios. Inspired by the native dynamics between immune and skeletal systems, this work proposes a straightforward in vitro method to bioengineer biomimetic bone niches using biological waste. For that, liquefied and semipermeable reservoirs generated by electrohydrodynamic atomization and layer-by-layer techniques are developed to coculture umbilical cord-derived human cells, namely monocyte-derived macrophages, mesenchymal-derived stromal cells (MSCs), and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Poly(ε-caprolactone) microparticles are also added to the liquefied core to act as cell carriers. The fabricated microcapsules grant the successful development of viable microtissues, ensuring the high diffusion of bioactive factors. Interestingly, macrophages within the bioengineered microcapsules increase the release of osteocalcin, osteoprotegerin, and vascular endothelial growth factor. The cytokines profile variation indicates macrophages' polarization into a prohealing phenotype. Altogether, the incorporation of macrophages within the fabricated microcapsules allows to recreate an appropriate bone microenvironment for developing new bone mineralized microtissues. The proposed bioencapsulation protocol is a powerful self-regulated system, which might find great applicability in bone tissue engineering based on bottom-up approaches or disease modeling.

Abstract
Background All fracture repairs start with the innate immune system with the inflammatory response known as the inflammatory stage guided and driven by the secretion of chemokine by the ruptured tissue, followed by the sequential recruitment of neutrophils, monocytes and macrophages. These innate immune cells would infiltrate the fracture site and secrete inflammatory cytokines to stimulate recruitment of more immune cells to arrive at the fracture site coordinating subsequent stages of the repair process. In which, subsidence of pro-inflammatory M1 macrophage and transformation to anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages promotes osteogenesis that marks the start of the anabolic endochondral stage. Methods Literature search was performed on Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science databases (last accessed 15th April 2021) using “macrophage AND fracture”. Review was performed in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guideline. Results Eleven pre-clinical animal studies out of 429 articles were included in this systematic review according to our inclusion and exclusion criteria. All of which investigated interventions targeting to modulate the acute inflammatory response and macrophage polarization as evident by various markers in association with fracture healing outcomes. Conclusion This systematic review summarizes attempts to modulate the innate immune response with focuses on promoting macrophage polarization from M1 to M2 phenotype targeting the enhancement of fracture injury repair. Methods used to achieve the goal may include applications of damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP), pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) or mechanical stimulation that hold high translational potentials for clinical application in the near future.

Abstract
Various types of biomaterials have been widely used to treat complex bone defects. However, potential infection risks and inappropriate host immune responses induced by biomaterials can adversely affect the final bone repair outcome. Therefore, the development of novel bone biomaterials with antibacterial and immunomodulatory capabilities is conducive to achieving a good interaction between the host and material, thereby creating a local microenvironment favorable for osteogenesis and ultimately accelerating bone regeneration. In this study, we fabricated a porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) hydrogel containing LL37 peptides and polylactic-glycolic acid (PLGA) microspheres encapsulated with WP9QY(W9) peptide (LL37-W9/PLGA-SIS), which can fill irregular bone defects and exhibits excellent mechanical properties. In vitro experiments showed that the microsphere-gel composite system had sequential drug release characteristics. The LL37 peptide released first had good antibacterial performance and BMSC recruitment ability, which could prevent infection at an early stage and increase the number of BMSCs at the injured site. In addition, it also has immunomodulatory properties, showing both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory activities, but its early pro-inflammatory properties are more inclined to activate the M1 phenotype of macrophages. Moreover, the subsequently released W9 peptide not only reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory genes to alleviate inflammation and induced more macrophages to convert to M2 phenotypes but also promoted the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. This finely regulated immune response is considered to be more closely related to the physiological bone healing process. When studying the interaction between macrophages and BMSCs mediated by the material, it was found that the immunomodulatory and osteogenic effects were enhanced. In vivo experiments, we constructed rat skull defect models, which further proved that LL37-W9/PLGA-SIS gel can properly regulate the immune response, and has a good ability to promote osteogenesis in situ. In conclusion, the LL37-W9/PLGA-SIS hydrogel has great application prospects in immune regulation and bone therapy.

Abstract
Host immune response has gradually been accepted as a critical factor in achieving successful implant osseointegration. The aim of this study is to create a favorable immune microenvironment by the dominant release of IL-4 during the initial few days after implant insertion to mitigate early inflammatory reactions and facilitate osseointegration. Herein, the B-TNT/PDA/IL-4 substrate was established by immobilizing an interleukin-4 (IL-4)/polydopamine (PDA) coating on a black TiO2 nanotube (B-TNT) surface, achieving on-demand IL-4 release under near infrared (NIR) irradiation. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analyses based on high-throughput DNA microarray data revealed that IL-4 addition inhibited osteoclast differentiation and function. Animal experiment results suggested that the B-TNT/PDA/IL-4+Laser substrate induced the least inflammatory, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase, inducible nitric oxide synthase and the most CD163 positive cells, compared to the Ti group at 7 days post-implantation. In addition, 28 days post-implantation, micro-computed tomography results showed the highest bone volume/total volume, trabecular thickness, trabecular number and the lowest trabecular separation, while Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson-trichrome staining revealed the largest amount of new bone formation for the B-TNT/PDA/IL-4+Laser group. This study revealed the osteoimmunoregulatory function of the novel B-TNT/PDA/IL-4 surface by photothermal release of IL-4 at an early period post-implantation, thus paving a new way for dental implant surface modification.

Abstract
As aging becomes a global burden, the incidence of hip fracture (HF), which is the most common fracture in the elderly population and can be fatal, is rapidly increasing, and its extremely high fatality rate places significant medical and financial burdens on patients. Fractures trigger a complex set of immune responses, and recent studies have shown that with aging, the immune system shows decreased activity or malfunctions in a process known as immune senescence, leading to disease and death. These phenomena are the reasons why elderly individuals typically exhibit chronically low levels of inflammation and increased rates of infection and chronic disease. Macrophages, which are key players in the inflammatory response, are critical in initiating the inflammatory response, clearing pathogens, controlling the innate and adaptive immune responses and repairing damaged tissues. Tissue-resident macrophages (TRMs) are widely present in tissues and perform immune sentinel and homeostatic functions. TRMs are combinations of macrophages with different functions and phenotypes that can be directly influenced by neighboring cells and the microenvironment. They form a critical component of the first line of defense in all tissues of the body. Immune system disorders caused by aging could affect the biology of macrophages and thus the cascaded immune response after fracture in various ways. In this review, we outline recent studies and discuss the potential link between monocytes and macrophages and their potential roles in HF in elderly individuals.

Sex differences in the therapeutic effect of unaltered versus NFκB sensing IL-4 over-expressing mesenchymal stromal cells in a murine model of chronic inflammatory bone loss.

Abstract
Wear particles from joint arthroplasties induce chronic inflammation associated with prolonged upregulation of nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling in macrophages and osteoclasts, which leads to osteolysis and implant loosening. Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-based therapy showed great potential for immunomodulation and mitigation of osteolysis in vivo, especially in the chronic phase of inflammation. We previously generated genetically modified MSCs that secrete the anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin 4 (IL-4) in response to NF-κB activation (NFκB-IL-4 MSCs). However, whether the impact of sexual difference in the internal environment can alter the therapeutic effects of IL-4 over-secreting MSCs that simultaneously mitigate prolonged inflammation and enhance bone formation remains unknown. This study investigated the therapeutic effects of unaltered MSCs versus NFκB-IL-4 MSCs in mitigating chronic inflammation and enhancing bone formation in male and female mice. The murine model was established by continuous infusion of polyethylene particles contaminated with lipopolysaccharide (cPE) into the medullary cavity of the distal femur for 6 weeks to induce chronic inflammation. Unaltered MSCs or NFκB-IL-4 MSCs were infused into the femoral intramedullary cavity in sex-matched groups beginning 3 weeks after primary surgery. Femurs were harvested at 6 weeks, and bone marrow density was measured with micro-computational tomography. Numbers of osteoclast-like cells, osteoblasts, and macrophages were evaluated with histochemical and immunofluorescence staining. cPE infusion resulted in severe bone loss at the surgery site, increased tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positive osteoclasts and M1 pro-inflammatory macrophages, and decreased alkaline phosphatase expression. MSC-based therapy effectively decreased local bone loss and polarized M1 macrophages into an M2 anti-inflammatory phenotype. In females, unaltered MSCs demonstrated a larger impact in enhancing the osteogenesis, but they demonstrated similar anti-inflammatory effects compared to NFκB-IL-4 MSCs. These results demonstrated that local inflammatory bone loss can be effectively modulated via MSC-based treatments in a sexually dimorphic manner, which could be an efficacious therapeutic strategy for treatment of periprosthetic osteolysis in both genders.

Abstract
Modulation of the immune response following the implantation of biomaterials can have beneficial effects on bone regeneration. This involves complex interactions between the inflammatory and osteogenic cells. Therefore, the study of cell-cell interactions using direct co-culture models integrated with biomaterials is of great interest. This research aimed to study the viability, morphology, and osteogenic activity of preosteoblasts (OBs) co-cultured with pro-inflammatory macrophages (M1s) on the 3D printed (non)patterned surfaces. OBs and M1s remained alive and proliferated actively for 14 days in the mixture of Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) and alpha Minimum Essential Medium (α-MEM) (1:1), regardless of the cell ratio in the co-cultures. The spatial organization of the two types of cells changed with the time of culture from an initially uniform cell distribution to the formation of a thick layer of OBs covered by clusters of M1s. On day 7, the expression of PGE2 and TNF-α were upregulated in the co-culture relative to the mono-culture of OBs and M1s. The inflammation decreased differentiation and matrix mineralization of OBs after 28 days of culture. Interestingly, the incorporation of 3D printed submicron pillars into the direct co-culture model enhanced the differentiation of preosteoblasts, as shown by relatively higher RUNX2 expression, thereby revealing the osteoimmunomodulatory potential of such surface patterns.

Abstract
Liver fibrosis is a wound-healing process that occurs in response to severe injuries and is hallmarked by the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix or scar tissues within the liver. Liver fibrosis can be either acute or chronic and is induced by a variety of hepatotoxic causes, including lipid deposition, drugs, viruses, and autoimmune reactions. In advanced fibrosis, liver cirrhosis develops, a condition for which there is no successful therapy other than liver transplantation. Although liver transplantation is still a viable option, numerous limitations limit its application, including a lack of donor organs, immune rejection, and postoperative complications. As a result, there is an immediate need for a different kind of therapeutic approach. Recent research has shown that the administration of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) is an attractive treatment modality for repairing liver injury and enhancing liver regeneration. This is accomplished through the cell migration into liver sites, immunoregulation, hepatogenic differentiation, as well as paracrine mechanisms. MSCs can also release a huge variety of molecules into the extracellular environment. These molecules, which include extracellular vesicles, lipids, free nucleic acids, and soluble proteins, exert crucial roles in repairing damaged tissue. In this review, we summarize the characteristics of MSCs, representative clinical study data, and the potential mechanisms of MSCs-based strategies for attenuating liver cirrhosis. Additionally, we examine the processes that are involved in the MSCs-dependent modulation of the immune milieu in liver cirrhosis. As a result, our findings lend credence to the concept of developing a cell therapy treatment for liver cirrhosis that is premised on MSCs. MSCs can be used as a candidate therapeutic agent to lengthen the survival duration of patients with liver cirrhosis or possibly reverse the condition in the near future.

Abstract
Osseous tissue repair has advanced due to the introduction of tissue engineering. The key elements required while engineering new tissues involve scaffolds, cells, and bioactive cues. The macrostructural to the nanostructural framework of such complex tissue has engrossed the intervention of nanotechnology for efficient neo-bone formation. Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have recently gained interest in bone tissue regeneration due to their multimodal functionality. They are proven to modulate the properties of scaffolds and the osteogenic cells significantly. GNPs also influence different metabolic functions within the body, which directly or indirectly govern the mechanism of bone regeneration. Therefore, this review highlights nanoparticle-mediated osteogenic development, focusing on different aspects of GNPs ranging from scaffold modulation to cellular stimulation. The toxic aspects of gold nanoparticles studied so far are critically explicated, while further insight into the advancements and prospects of these nanoparticles in bone regeneration is also highlighted.

J Clin Periodontol 2022; 49:814-827. [PMID: 35569032 DOI: 10.1111/jcpe.13647] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Revised: 03/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
AIM Emerging studies have shown that immune response to biomaterial implants plays a central role in bone healing. Ipriflavone is clinically used for osteoporosis. However, the mechanism of ipriflavone in immune response to implants in early stages of osseointegration remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential role of ipriflavone in early bone healing process and uncover the underlying mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS We carried out histological examination as well as analysis of proinflammatory cytokines and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in a tibial implantation mouse model with intra-peritoneal injection of ipriflavone. In addition, we explored the mechanism of ipriflavone in the regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome activation in macrophages. RESULTS In vivo, ipriflavone ameliorated host inflammatory response related to NLRP3 inflammasome activation at implantation sites, characterized by reductions of inflammatory cell infiltration and proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-1β levels. Ipriflavone treatment also showed beneficial effects on early osseointegration. Further investigations of the molecular mechanism showed that the suppression of NLRP3 inflammasome acts upstream of NLRP3 oligomerization through abrogating the production of reactive oxygen species. CONCLUSIONS These results revealed an anti-inflammatory role of ipriflavone in NLRP3 inflammasome activation through improving mitochondrial function. This study provides a new strategy for the development of immune-regulated biomaterials and treatment options for NLRP3-related diseases.

Differences in Ecological Traits between Plants Grown In Situ and Ex Situ and Implications for Conservation. SUSTAINABILITY 2022.

Abstract
Ex situ conservation plays an important role in maintaining global plant biodiversity and protects thousands of wild plants. Plant conservation in botanical gardens is an important part of ex situ conservation; however, little attention has been given to whether plant ecophysiological traits change and whether plant conservation goals are reached following ex situ conservation. In this study, tree and shrub plants were selected from Shanxi, Beijing of China and from Beijing Botanical Garden, and plants with good growth and similar ages were randomly selected to measure their light response curves, CO2 response curves with a portable photosynthesis system (Li-6400XT), relative chlorophyll contents using a chlorophyll meter (SPAD-502) and leaf water potential using a dew point water potential meter (WP4C). In comparison with cultivated plants, wild plants had higher water use efficiencies among all plants considered (by 92–337%) and greater light use efficiencies among some of plants considered (by 107–181%), while light response curves and CO2 response curves for wild plants were either higher or lower compared with cultivated plants. Ecological traits of wild and cultivated plants changed more as a result of habitat factors than due to plant factors. The initial slope of the light response curve, net photosynthetic rate at light saturation, light saturation point, maximum light energy utilization efficiency, maximum water use efficiency, leaf water content, and the leaf water potential of wild plants were larger or equal to those of cultivated plants, while dark respiration rate (by 63–583%) and light compensation point (by 150–607%) of cultivated plants were higher than those of wild plants. This research compared the ecophysiological traits of common green space plants cultivated in botanical gardens and distributed in different areas in wild environments. The response of plant ecophysiological traits to the changing environment has important theoretical and practical significance for wild plant conservation and urban green space system construction.

Ageing attenuates bone healing by mesenchymal stem cells in a microribbon hydrogel with a murine long bone critical-size defect model. Immun Ageing 2022; 19:14. [PMID: 35279175 PMCID: PMC8917642 DOI: 10.1186/s12979-022-00272-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Accepted: 02/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the high incidence of fractures and pseudoarthrosis in the aged population, a potential role for the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the treatment of bone defects in elderly patients has not been elucidated. Inflammation and the innate immune system, including macrophages, play crucial roles in the differentiation and activation of MSCs. We have developed lentivirus-transduced interleukin 4 (IL4) over-expressing MSCs (IL4-MSCs) to polarize macrophages to an M2 phenotype to promote bone healing in an established young murine critical size bone defect model. In the current study, we explore the potential of IL4-MSCs in aged mice. METHODS A 2 mm femoral diaphyseal bone defect was created and fixed with an external fixation device in 15- to 17-month-old male and female BALB/c mice. Microribbon (µRB) scaffolds (Sc) with or without encapsulation of MSCs were implanted in the defect sites. Accordingly, the mice were divided into three treatment groups: Sc-only, Sc + MSCs, and Sc + IL4-MSCs. Mice were euthanized six weeks after the surgery; subsequently, MicroCT (µCT), histochemical and immunohistochemical analyses were performed. RESULTS µCT analysis revealed that bone formation was markedly enhanced in the IL4-MSC group. Compared with the Sc-only, the amount of new bone increased in the Sc + MSCs and Sc + IL4-MSC groups. However, no bridging of bone was observed in all groups. H&E staining showed fibrous tissue within the defect in all groups. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining was increased in the Sc + IL4-MSC group. The Sc + IL4-MSCs group showed a decrease in the number of M1 macrophages and an increase in the number of M2 macrophages, with a significant increase in the M2/M1 ratio. DISCUSSION IL4 promotes macrophage polarization to an M2 phenotype, facilitating osteogenesis and vasculogenesis. The addition of IL4-MSCs in the µRB scaffold polarized macrophages to an M2 phenotype and increased bone formation; however, complete bone bridging was not observed in any specimens. These results suggest that IL4-MSCs are insufficient to heal a critical size bone defect in aged mice, as opposed to younger animals. Additional therapeutic strategies are needed in this challenging clinical scenario.
