Abstract
3D printing fabrication has become a dominant approach for the creation of tissue engineering constructs as it is accurate, fast, reproducible and can produce patient-specific templates. In this study, 3D printing is applied to create nanocomposite scaffold of polylactic acid (PLA)/hardystonite (HT)-graphene oxide (GO). GO is utilized as a coupling agent of alkaline treated HT nanoparticles within PLA matrix. The addition of HT-GO nanoparticles of up to 30 wt% to PLA matrix was found to increase the degradability from 7.33 ± 0.66 to 16.03 ± 1.47 % during 28 days. Also, the addition of 20 wt% of HT-GO nanoparticles to PLA scaffold (PLA/20HTGO sample) significantly increased the compressive strength (from 7.65 ± 0.86 to 14.66 ± 1.01 MPa) and elastic modulus (from 94.46 ± 18.03 to 189.15 ± 10.87 MPa). The apatite formation on the surface of nanocomposite scaffolds in simulated body fluid within 28 days confirmed the excellent bioactivity of nanocomposite scaffolds. The MG63 cell adhesion and proliferation and, also, the rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells osteogenic differentiation were highly stimulated on the PLA/20HTGO scaffold. According to the sum of results obtained in the current study, the optimized PLA/20HTGO nanocomposite scaffold is highly promising for hard tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
This study was designed to isolate, cultivate, characterize and evaluate the growth kinetics of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from fetal adnexa of sheep. The gravid uteri of ewes were collected from a local abattoir. The MSCs isolated from different fetal regions (Wharton's Jelly [oWJ], cord blood [oCB], amniotic fluid [oAF] and amniotic Sac [oAS]) were expanded in vitro and characterized for surface and pluripotency markers. The growth kinetics of MSCs was compared at 3rd and 5th passages. Similarly, the colony-forming efficiency (CFE) assay was performed at 3rd passage. The fetal adnexa-derived ovine MSCs showed the expression of CD73, CD90 and CD105. Similarly, the MSCs also expressed pluripotency markers, OCT4 and SOX2. Besides, cells also differentiated into osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipogenic lineages. The MSCs in culture showed a typical growth curve with initial lag phase, an exponential phase, a plateau phase and a decline phase. The growth rate was highest in oAF-MSCs at P5. The population doubling time (PDT) was highest in oAS-MSCs (87.28 ± 3.24 h), whereas the colony number was highest in oAF-MSCs (53.67 ± 4.06). The study reveals that oAF-MSCs were superior which outperformed other MSCs indicating that oAF-derived MSCs could be utilized for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. Current therapeutic approaches suffer significant side effects and lack of clear understanding of their molecular targets. Recent studies reported the anticancer effects, immunomodulatory properties, and antiangiogenic effects of the human amniotic membrane (hAM). hAM is a transparent protective membrane that surrounds the fetus. Preclinical studies showed pro-apoptotic and antiproliferative properties of hAM treatment on cancer cells. Herein, we present the latest findings of the application of the hAM in combating HCC tumorigenesis and the underlying molecular pathogenies and the role of transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ), P53, WNT/beta-catenin, and PI3K/AKT pathways. The emerging clinical applications of hAM in cancer therapy provide evidence for its diverse and unique features and suitability for the management of a wide range of pathological conditions.

Abstract
Damage to bone leads to pain and loss of movement in the musculoskeletal system. Although bone can regenerate, sometimes it is damaged beyond its innate capacity. Research interest is increasingly turning to tissue engineering (TE) processes to provide a clinical solution for bone defects. Despite the increasing biomimicry of tissue-engineered scaffolds, significant gaps remain in creating the complex bone substitutes, which include the biochemical and physical conditions required to recapitulate bone cells' natural growth, differentiation and maturation. Combining advanced biomaterials with new additive manufacturing technologies allows the development of 3D tissue, capable of forming cell aggregates and organoids based on natural and stimulated cues. Here, we provide an overview of the structure and mechanical properties of natural bone, the role of bone cells, the remodelling process, cytokines and signalling pathways, causes of bone defects and typical treatments and new TE strategies. We highlight processes of selecting biomaterials, cells and growth factors. Finally, we discuss innovative tissue-engineered models that have physiological and anatomical relevance for cancer treatments, injectable stimuli gels, and other therapeutic drug delivery systems. We also review current challenges and prospects of bone TE. Overall, this review serves as guide to understand and develop better tissue-engineered bone designs.

Abstract
Regeneration of bone defects is often limited due to compromised bone tissue physiology. Previous studies suggest that engineered extracellular matrices enhance the regenerative capacity of mesenchymal stromal cells. In this study, we used human-induced pluripotent stem cells, a scalable source of young mesenchymal progenitors (hiPSC-MPs), to generate extracellular matrix (iECM) and test its effects on the osteogenic capacity of human bone-marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs). iECM was deposited as a layer on cell culture dishes and into three-dimensional (3D) silk-based spongy scaffolds. After decellularization, iECM maintained inherent structural proteins including collagens, fibronectin and laminin, and contained minimal residual DNA. Young adult and aged BMSCs cultured on the iECM layer in osteogenic medium exhibited a significant increase in proliferation, osteogenic marker expression, and mineralization as compared to tissue culture plastic. With BMSCs from aged donors, matrix mineralization was only detected when cultured on iECM, but not on tissue culture plastic. When cultured in 3D iECM/silk scaffolds, BMSCs exhibited significantly increased osteogenic gene expression levels and bone matrix deposition. iECM layer showed a similar enhancement of aged BMSC proliferation, osteogenic gene expression, and mineralization compared with extracellular matrix layers derived from young adult or aged BMSCs. However, iECM increased osteogenic differentiation and decreased adipocyte formation compared with single protein substrates including collagen and fibronectin. Together, our data suggest that the microenvironment comprised of iECM can enhance the osteogenic activity of BMSCs, providing a bioactive and scalable biomaterial strategy for enhancing bone regeneration in patients with delayed or failed bone healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioresorbable materials are compounds that decompose in physiological mediums both in vitro and in vivo and are used as an alternative to temporary implants in injured tissues. The aim of this study was to analyze the morphology and cytochemistry of cells grown on fibrous poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) scaffolds and to measure cell metabolism parameters by biochemical analysis of the conditioned culture medium from cells grown on the scaffolds. METHODS Fibrous PCL scaffolds were used under the following conditions: unaligned fibers (NA), fibers aligned at 150 rpm (A150), and fibers aligned at 300 rpm (A300). Vero cells were cultured on these scaffolds for 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h. Samples were analyzed by SEM, MicroCT, cytochemistry, and culture medium biochemistry. RESULTS The results of the cytochemical analysis showed cells were confluent and well spread on the culture plate, while cells grown on the polymeric scaffold, exhibited an elongated morphology. In the biochemical analyses, no significant differences were observed in the expression of alkaline phosphatase or in the levels of cholesterol or total protein in the culture medium. The different materials do not seem to promote changes in the expression or metabolism of these molecules. Only glucose was markedly reduced in the culture medium of cells grown on either aligned or unaligned scaffolds for 48 h or 72 h. This finding indicates the intense energy requirements of cells grown on these scaffolds. CONCLUSION PCL fibers showed a great capacity to support cell growth. These data reinforce the interpretation that cells grow satisfactorily on PCL scaffolds.

Abstract
In recent years, research on human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) derived from human umbilical cord tissue has accelerated and entered clinical application research. Compared with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from other sources, hUCMSCs can be extracted from different parts of umbilical cord or from the whole umbilical cord. It has the characteristics of less ethical controversy, high differentiation potential, strong proliferation ability, efficient expansion in vitro, avoiding immune rejection and immune privilege, and avoids the limitations of lack of embryonic stem cells, heterogeneity, ethical and moral constraints. hUCMSCs avoid the need for embryonic stem cell sources, heterogeneity, and ethical and moral constraints. Bone defects are very common in clinical practice, but completely effective bone tissue regeneration treatment is challenging. Currently, autologous bone transplantation and allogeneic bone transplantation are main treatment approaches in clinical work, but each has different shortcomings, such as limited sources, invasiveness, immune rejection and insufficient osteogenic ability. Therefore, to solve the bottleneck of bone tissue regeneration and repair, a great amount of research has been carried out to explore the clinical advantages of hUCMSCs as seed cells to promote osteogenesis.However, the regulation of osteogenic differentiation of hUCMSCs is an extremely complex process. Although a large number of studies have demonstrated that the role of hUCMSCs in enhancing local bone regeneration and repair through osteogenic differentiation and transplantation into the body involves multiple signaling pathways, there is no relevant article that summarize the findings. This article discusses the osteogenesis-related regulatory mechanisms of hUCMSCs, summarizes the currently known related mechanisms, and speculates on the possible signals.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs)-based therapy brings the reassuring capability to regenerative medicine through their self-renewal and multilineage potency. Also, they secret a diversity of mediators, which are complicated in moderation of deregulated immune responses, and yielding angiogenesis in vivo. Nonetheless, MSCs may lose biological performance after procurement and prolonged expansion in vitro. Also, following transplantation and migration to target tissue, they encounter a harsh milieu accompanied by death signals because of the lack of proper tensegrity structure between the cells and matrix. Accordingly, pre-conditioning of MSCs is strongly suggested to upgrade their performances in vivo, leading to more favored transplantation efficacy in regenerative medicine. Indeed, MSCs ex vivo pre-conditioning by hypoxia, inflammatory stimulus, or other factors/conditions may stimulate their survival, proliferation, migration, exosome secretion, and pro-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory characteristics in vivo. In this review, we deliver an overview of the pre-conditioning methods that are considered a strategy for improving the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs in organ failures, in particular, renal, heart, lung, and liver.

Abstract
Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) play a significant role on periodontal tissue and alveolar bone homeostasis. During inflammation, interleukin (IL)-6 serves as one of key cytokine players controlling tissue reaction as well as alveolar bone tissue remodeling. It is believed that periodontal tissue inflammation causes periodontium degradation, especially alveolar bone. However, in this study, we show that an inflammatory mediator, IL-6, may serve another direction on alveolar bone homeostasis during inflammatory condition. We found that, IL-6 at 10 and 20 ng/mL was not cytotoxic and dose-dependently exerted beneficial effects on osteogenic differentiation of human PDLSCs (hPDLSCs), as demonstrated by increased alkaline phosphatase activity, mRNA expression of osteogenic markers, and matrix mineralization. The presence of physiological and inflammatory level of IL-6, the osteogenic differentiation potential by hPDLSCs was enhanced by several possible mechanisms including transforming growth factor (TGF), Wnt, and Notch pathways. After in-depth and thorough exploration, we found that Wnt pathway serves as key regulator controlling osteogenic differentiation by hPDLSCs amid the IL-6 presentation. Surprisingly, apart from other mesenchymal stem cells, distinct Wnt components are employed by hPDLSCs, and both canonical and non-canonical Wnt pathways are triggered by different mechanisms. Further validation by gene silencing, treatment with recombinant Wnt ligands, and β-catenin stabilization/translocation confirmed that IL-6 governed the canonical Wnt/β-catenin pathway via either WNT2B or WNT10B and employed WNT5A to activate the non-canonical Wnt pathway. These findings fulfill the homeostasis pathway governing periodontal tissue and alveolar bone regeneration and may serve for further therapeutic regimen design for restoring the tissues.

Abstract
In the past decade, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged as key regulators of bone development, homeostasis and repair. EV-based therapies have the potential to circumnavigate key issues hindering the translation of cell-based therapies including functional tissue engraftment, uncontrolled differentiation and immunogenicity issues. Due to EVs' innate biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and high physiochemical stability, these naturally-derived nanoparticles have garnered growing interest as potential acellular nanoscale therapeutics for a variety of diseases. Our increasing knowledge of the roles these cell-derived nanoparticles play, has made them an exciting focus in the development of novel pro-regenerative therapies for bone repair. Although these nano-sized vesicles have shown promise, their clinical translation is hindered due to several challenges in the EV supply chain, ultimately impacting therapeutic efficacy and yield. From the biochemical and biophysical stimulation of parental cells to the transition to scalable manufacture or maximising vesicles therapeutic response in vivo, a multitude of techniques have been employed to improve the clinical efficacy of EVs.

Abstract
Bone defects are among the most common damages in human medicine. Due to limitations and challenges in the area of bone healing, the research field has turned into a hot topic discipline with direct clinical outcomes. Among several available modalities, scaffold-free cell sheet technology has opened novel avenues to yield efficient osteogenesis. It is suggested that the intact matrix secreted from cells can provide a unique microenvironment for the acceleration of osteoangiogenesis. To the best of our knowledge, cell sheet technology (CST) has been investigated in terms of several skeletal defects with promising outcomes. Here, we highlighted some recent advances associated with the application of CST for the recovery of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) in various preclinical settings. The regenerative properties of both single-layer and multilayer CST were assessed regarding fabrication methods and applications. It has been indicated that different forms of cell sheets are available for CMF engineering like those used for other hard tissues. By tackling current challenges, CST is touted as an effective and alternative therapeutic option for CMF bone regeneration.

Abstract
Biomimetic soft hydrogels used in bone tissue engineering frequently produce unsatisfactory outcomes. Here, it is investigated how human bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) differentiated into early osteoblasts on remarkably soft 3D hydrogel (70 ± 0.00049 Pa). Specifically, hBMSCs seeded onto cellulose nanocrystals incorporated methacrylate gelatin hydrogels are subjected to pulsatile pressure stimulation (PPS) of 5-20 kPa for 7 days. The PPS stimulates cellular processes such as mechanotransduction, cytoskeletal distribution, prohibition of oxidative stress, calcium homeostasis, osteogenic marker gene expression, and osteo-specific cytokine secretions in hBMSCs on soft substrates. The involvement of Piezo 1 is the main ion channel involved in mechanotransduction. Additionally, RNA-sequencing results reveal differential gene expression concerning osteogenic differentiation, bone mineralization, ion channel activity, and focal adhesion. These findings suggest a practical and highly scalable method for promoting stem cell commitment to osteogenesis on soft matrices for clinical reconstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone tissue as a dynamic tissue is able to repair its minor injuries, however, sometimes the repair cannot be completed by itself due to the size of lesion. In such cases, the best treatment could be bone tissue engineering. The use of stem cells in skeletal disorders to repair bone defects has created bright prospects. On the other hand, changes in the expression level of microRNAs (miRs) can lead to the commitment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to cell lineage. Many studies reported that post-transcriptional regulations by miRNAs are involved in all stages of osteoblast differentiation. METHOD After the preparing adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, the target cells from the third passage were cultured in two groups, transfected MSCs with miR-27a-3p (DM.C + P) and control group. In different times, 7 and 14 days after culture, differentiation of these cells into osteoblast were measured using various techniques including the ALP test and calcium content test, Alizarin Red staining, Immunocytochemistry technique (ICC). Also, the relative expression of bone differentiation marker genes including Osteonectin (ON), Osteocalcin (OC), RUNX Family Transcription Factor 2 (RUNX2), Collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1) was investigated by real-time RT PCR. RESULTS In comparison with control groups, overexpression of miR-27a-3p in transfected cells resulted in a significant increase in the expression of bone markers genes (ON, OC, RUNX2, COL1), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and calcium content (p < 0.05). In addition, the results obtained from ICC technique showed that osteocalcin protein is expressed at the surface of bone cells. Furthermore, the expression of APC, as a target of miR-27a-3p, decreased in transfected cells. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that miR-27a-3p may positively regulates adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into bone by targeting APC and activating the Wnt/b-catenin pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Asperosaponin VI (ASA VI) is an active ingredient found in the traditional Chinese herb Radix Dipsaci, which is used to treat fractures. ASA VI combined with osteogenic medium can induce osteogenic differentiation of rat-derived stem cells. However, whether ASA VI alone can induce osteoblast differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) remains unclear. METHODS ASA VI human-derived binding proteins were searched in the PharmMapper database, osteogenesis-related signaling pathways were obtained through a literature search, and proteins contained in these signaling pathways were queried in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes database. SystemsDock was used to perform online molecular docking of target proteins to evaluate their binding abilities, and validation experiments were performed. RESULTS A total of 620 ASA VI target proteins and 12 osteogenesis-related signaling pathways were queried, and 17 intersecting targets were screened. Molecular docking results showed that these targets had high binding affinity for ASA VI. We selected estrogen receptor 2 and its estrogen signaling pathway for experimental validation. The results showed that ASA VI can induce the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs through the estrogen signaling pathway. CONCLUSION ASA VI can independently induce osteogenic differentiation of human umbilical cord MSCs, and the estrogen signaling pathway plays an important role in this process. Thus, ASA VI may have potential as an anti-osteoporosis drug.

Abstract
Silica nonwoven fabrics (SNFs) with high mechanical strength and porosity are known to exhibit high cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by morphologically mimicking the extracellular matrix (ECM). To further improve the osteoinductive ability of SNFs, it could be effective to increase the interaction between MSCs and ECM components because exogenous ECM components seem to modulate the fate of MSCs differentiation. In this study, we developed immobilization methods for ECM components, such as collagen, fibronectin, and chondroitin sulphate C on SNFs, to improve cell-matrix interactions and examined their suitability for bone tissue regeneration. Collagen and fibronectin were immobilized via physical adsorption and chondroitin sulphate C was also immobilized by the layer-by-layer method combined with chitosan on SNF surfaces to maintain the high porosity of SNFs. The treated SNFs were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In osteogenic differentiation culture, modified SNFs showed significantly increased expression of osteogenic differentiation marker genes compared to unmodified SNFs. These results suggest that the present methods improve cell-matrix interactions and enhance the cellular functions of MSCs. We are convinced that these simple modification techniques for ECM components are effective in functionalizing various 3D fabric scaffolds possessing hydrophilic groups.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising candidate for bone repair. However, the maintenance of MSCs injected into the bone injury site remains inefficient. A potential approach is to develop a bone-liked platform that incorporates MSCs into a biocompatible 3D scaffold to facilitate bone grafting into the desired location. Bone tissue engineering is a multistep process that requires optimizing several variables, including the source of cells, osteogenic stimulation factors, and scaffold properties. This study aims to evaluate the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation potentials of MSCs cultured on 2 types of 3D-printed hydroxyapatite, including a 3D-printed HA and biomimetic calcium phosphate-coated 3D-printed HA. MSCs from bone marrow (BM-MSCs) and umbilical cord (UC-MSCs) were cultured on the 3D-printed HA and coated 3D-printed HA. Scanning electron microscopy and immunofluorescence staining were used to examine the characteristics and the attachment of MSCs to the scaffolds. Additionally, the cell proliferation was monitored, and the ability of cells to differentiate into osteoblast was assessed using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and osteogenic gene expression. The BM-MSCs and UC-MSCs attached to a plastic culture plate with a spindle-shaped morphology exhibited an immunophenotype consistent with the characteristics of MSCs. Both MSC types could attach and survive on the 3D-printed HA and coated 3D-printed HA scaffolds. The MSCs cultured on these scaffolds displayed sufficient osteoblastic differentiation capacity, as evidenced by increased ALP activity and the expression of osteogenic genes and proteins compared to the control. Interestingly, MSCs grown on coated 3D-printed HA exhibited a higher ALP activity and osteogenic gene expression than those cultured on the 3D-printed HA. The finding indicated that BM-MSCs and UC-MSCs cultured on the 3D-printed HA and coated 3D-printed HA scaffolds could proliferate and differentiate into osteoblasts. Thus, the HA scaffolds could provide a suitable and favorable environment for the 3D culture of MSCs in bone tissue engineering. Additionally, biomimetic coating with octacalcium phosphate may improve the biocompatibility of the bone regeneration scaffold.

Abstract
Cell-material interactions are regulated by mimicking bone extracellular matrix on the surface of biomaterials. In this regard, reproducing the extracellular conditions that promote integrin and growth factor (GF) signaling is a major goal to trigger bone regeneration. Thus, the use of synthetic osteogenic domains derived from bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) is gaining increasing attention, as this strategy is devoid of the clinical risks associated with this molecule. In this work, the wrist and knuckle epitopes of BMP-2 are screened to identify peptides with potential osteogenic properties. The most active sequences (the DWIVA motif and its cyclic version) are combined with the cell adhesive RGD peptide (linear and cyclic variants), to produce tailor-made biomimetic peptides presenting the bioactive cues in a chemically and geometrically defined manner. Such multifunctional peptides are next used to functionalize titanium surfaces. Biological characterization with mesenchymal stem cells demonstrates the ability of the biointerfaces to synergistically enhance cell adhesion and osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, in vivo studies in rat calvarial defects prove the capacity of the biomimetic coatings to improve new bone formation and reduce fibrous tissue thickness. These results highlight the potential of mimicking integrin-GF signaling with synthetic peptides, without the need for exogenous GFs.

Gene Expression Profiles of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Derived from Wharton’s Jelly and Amniotic Membrane before and after Osteo-Induction Using NanoString Platform. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2022; 44:4240-4254. [PMID: 36135203 PMCID: PMC9497674 DOI: 10.3390/cimb44090291] [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: 07/11/2022] [Revised: 08/08/2022] [Accepted: 08/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The use of perinatal mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in bone tissue regeneration and engineering to substitute bone marrow MSCs has drawn great interest due to their high yield, ease of procurement, multilineage differentiation potential and lack of ethical concerns. Although amniotic membrane (AM) and Wharton’s jelly (WJ)-derived MSCs have been widely shown to possess osteogenic differentiation potential, the intrinsic properties determining their osteogenic capacity remain unclear. Here, we compared gene expression profiles of AM- and WJ-MSCs at basal and osteogenic conditions by using the NanoString Stem Cell Panel containing regulatory genes associated with stemness, self-renewal, Wnt, Notch and Hedgehog signalling pathways. At basal condition, WJ-MSCs displayed higher expression in most genes regardless of their functional roles in self-renewal, adhesion, or differentiation signalling pathways. After osteo-induction, elevated expression of self-renewal genes ADAR and PAFAH1B1 was observed in AM-MSCs, while stemness genes MME and ALDH1A1 were upregulated in WJ-MSC. Both MSCs showed differences in genes associated with ligands, receptors and ubiquitin ligases of the Notch pathway. In addition, further evidence was demonstrated in some signalling molecules including CTBPs, protein kinases, phosphatases, RHOA, RAC1. Downstream targets HES1 and JUN especially showed higher expression in non-induced WJ-MSCs. Hedgehog genes initially expressed in both MSCs were downregulated in WJ-MSCs during osteogenesis. This study has provided insights into the intrinsic biological differences that may lead to their discrimination in therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
The osteopontin released from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) undergoing lineage differentiation can negatively influence the expansion of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in co-culture systems developed for expanding HSCs. Therefore, minimising the amount of osteopontin in the co-culture system is important for the successful ex vivo expansion of HSCs. Towards this goal, a bioengineered 3D microfibrous-matrix that can maintain MSCs in less osteopontin-releasing conditions has been developed, and its influence on the expansion of HSCs has been studied. The newly developed 3D matrix significantly decreased the release of osteopontin, depending on the MSC culture conditions used during the priming period before HSC seeding. The culture system with the lowest amount of osteopontin facilitated a more than 24-fold increase in HSC number in 1 week time period. Interestingly, the viability of expanded cells and the CD34+ pure population of HSCs were found to be the highest in the low osteopontin-containing system. Therefore, bioengineered microfibrous 3D matrices seeded with MSCs, primed under suitable culture conditions, can be an improved ex vivo expansion system for HSC culture.

Immobilization of Collagen on the Surface of a PEEK Implant with Monolayer Nanopores. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14091633. [PMID: 35566803 PMCID: PMC9102333 DOI: 10.3390/polym14091633] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2022] [Revised: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/11/2022] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) is the only polymer material that can replace titanium implants in the field of orthopedics. This is because the mechanical properties of PEEK are similar to those of bone, and PEEK has natural radiolucency, chemical stability, and sterilization resistance. Despite these advantages, PEEK has a disadvantage—that it is bio-inert. Therefore, many studies have attempted to change the bio-inertness of PEEK into bioactivity. Among them, a method of forming pores by acid treatment is attracting attention. In this study, an attempt was made to form pores on the surface of PEEK implant using a mixed acid of sulfuric acid and nitric acid. As a result, it was found that the condition when the PEEK surface is in contact with the acid is very important. That is, it was possible to form single-layered nanopores on the surface by contacting PEEK with a mixed acid under ultrasound. Additionally, by immobilizing type I collagen on the porous PEEK surface through dopamine coating, it was possible to obtain collagen-immobilized porous PEEK (P-PEEK-Col) with high compatibility with osteoblasts. This P-PEEK-Col has high potential for use as a bone substitute that promotes bone formation.

Nanohydroxyapatite-Protein Interface in Composite Sintered Scaffold Influences Bone Regeneration in Rabbit Ulnar Segmental Defect. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2022; 33:36.

Abstract
The healing physiology of bone repair and remodeling that occurs after normal fracture is well orchestrated. However, it fails in complex clinical conditions and hence requires augmentation by grafts. In this study, composite nanohydroxyapatite (nHA), poly(hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) and poly(ɛ-caprolactone) (PCL) constituted microspheres sintered three-dimensional scaffold were evaluated in rabbit ulnar segmental defect. A composite scaffold using PHB-PCL-nHA microspheres was developed with protein interface by solvent/non-solvent sintering to provide multiple cues such as biocomposition, cancellous bone equivalent meso-micro multi-scale porosity, and compressive strength. In vitro DNA quantification and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assays revealed that the protein interfaced composite scaffolds supported osteoblast proliferation and mineralization significantly higher than scaffolds without protein and TCPS (p < 0.05). Scanning electron micrographs of osteoblasts cultured scaffolds demonstrated cell-matrix interaction, cell spreading, colonization and filopodial extension across the porous voids. Cylindrical scaffolds (5 × 10 mm) were implanted following segmental defect (10 mm) in rabbit ulnar bone and compared with untreated control. Radiography (4, 8 and 12 weeks) and µ-computed tomography (12 weeks) analysis showed directional bone tissue formation by bridging defective site in both scaffolds with and without protein interface. Whereas, undesired sclerotic-like tissue formation was observed in control groups from 8 weeks. Histology by hot Stevenel's blue and van Gieson's picrofuchsin staining has confirmed enhanced bone maturation in scaffold groups while presence of osteoids was observed in control after 12 weeks. Thus, the developed composite matrices exhibits osteoinductive, osteoconductive properties and demonstrates its bone regenerative potential owing to its compositional, micro & macro structural and mechanical properties.

Abstract
Liver disorders have been increasing globally in recent years. These diseases are associated with high morbidity and mortality rates and impose high care costs on the health system. Acute liver failure, chronic and congenital liver diseases, as well as hepatocellular carcinoma have been limitedly treated by whole organ transplantation so far. But novel treatments for liver disorders using cell-based approaches have emerged in recent years. Extra-embryonic tissues, including umbilical cord, amnion membrane, and chorion plate, contain multipotent stem cells. The pre-sent manuscript discusses potential application of extraembryonic mesenchymal stromal/stem cells, focusing on the management of liver diseases. Extra-embryonic MSC are characterized by robust and constitutive anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic properties, indicating as therapeutic agents for inflammatory conditions such as liver fibrosis or advanced cirrhosis, as well as chronic inflammatory settings or deranged immune responses.

Abstract
Doxorubicin is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug known to induce bone loss. The mechanism behind doxorubicin-mediated bone loss is unclear, but oxidative stress has been suggested as a potential cause. Antioxidants that can counteract the toxic effect of doxorubicin on the bone would be helpful for the prevention of secondary osteoporosis. We used resveratrol, a natural antioxidant, and MitoTEMPO, a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant, to counteract doxorubicin-induced bone loss and mineralization on Sparus aurata larvae. Doxorubicin supplemented Microdiets increased bone deformities, decreased mineralization, and lipid peroxidation, whereas Resveratrol and MitoTEMPO supplemented microdiets improved mineralization, decreased bone deformities, and reversed the effects of doxorubicin in vivo and in vitro, using osteoblastic VSa13 cells. Partial Least-Squares Discriminant Analysis highlighted differences between groups on the distribution of skeletal anomalies and mineralization of skeleton elements. Calcium and Phosphorus content was negatively affected in the doxorubicin supplemented group. Doxorubicin reduced the mRNA expression of antioxidant genes, including catalase, glutathione peroxidase 1, superoxide dismutase 1, and hsp90 suggesting that ROS are central for Doxorubicin-induced bone loss. The mRNA expression of antioxidant genes was significantly increased on resveratrol alone or combined treatment. The length of intestinal villi was increased in response to antioxidants and reduced on doxorubicin. Antioxidant supplements effectively prevent bone deformities and mineralization defects, increase antioxidant response and reverse doxorubicin-induced effects on bone anomalies, mineralization, and oxidative stress. A combined treatment of doxorubicin and antioxidants was beneficial in fish larvae and showed the potential for use in preventing Doxorubicin-induced bone impairment.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of tissue injuries is fueling the development of autologous biological treatments for regenerative medicine. Here, we investigated the potential of three different bioinks based on the combination of gelatin and alginate (GA), enriched in either hydroxyapatite (GAHA) or hydroxyapatite and PRGF (GAHAP), as a favorable microenvironment for human dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs). Swelling behaviour, in vitro degradation and mechanical properties of the matrices were evaluated. Morphological and elemental analysis of the scaffolds were also performed along with cytocompatibility studies. The in vitro cell response to the different scaffolds was also assessed. Results showed that all scaffolds presented high swelling capacity, and those that contained HA showed higher Young's modulus. GAHAP had the lowest degradation rate and the highest values of cytocompatibility. Cell adhesion and chemotaxis were significantly increased when PRGF was incorporated to the matrices. GAHA and GAHAP compositions promoted the highest proliferative rate as well as significantly stimulated osteogenic differentiation. In conclusion, the enrichment with PRGF improves the regenerative properties of the composites favouring the development of personalized constructs.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), one of the most common carbohydrate metabolism disorders, is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and insulin resistance (IR), and has become an urgent global health challenge. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) originating from perinatal tissues such as umbilical cord (UC) and amniotic membrane (AM) serve as ideal candidates for the treatment of T2DM due to their great advantages in terms of abundant source, proliferation capacity, immunomodulation and plasticity for insulin-producing cell differentiation. However, the optimally perinatal MSC source to treat T2DM remains elusive. This study aims to compare the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs derived from AM and UC (AMMSCs and UCMSCs) of the same donor in the alleviation of T2DM symptoms and explore the underlying mechanisms. Our results showed that AMMSCs and UCMSCs displayed indistinguishable immunophenotype and multi-lineage differentiation potential, but UCMSCs had a much higher expansion capacity than AMMSCs. Moreover, we uncovered that single-dose intravenous injection of either AMMSCs or UCMSCs could comparably reduce hyperglycemia and improve IR in T2DM db/db mice. Mechanistic investigations revealed that either AMMSC or UCMSC infusion could greatly improve glycolipid metabolism in the liver of db/db mice, which was evidenced by decreased liver to body weight ratio, reduced lipid accumulation, upregulated glycogen synthesis, and increased Akt phosphorylation. Taken together, these data indicate that the same donor-derived AMMSCs and UCMSCs possessed comparable effects and shared a similar hepatoprotective mechanism on the alleviation of T2DM symptoms.

Abstract
Calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) are widely used in various endodontic treatments to promote wound healing and hard tissue formation. Chitosan-based accelerated Portland cement (APC-CT) is a promising and affordable material for endodontic use. This study investigated the effect of APC-CT on apoptosis, cell attachment, dentinogenic/osteogenic differentiation and mineralization activity of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED). APC-CT was prepared with various concentrations of chitosan (CT) solution (0%, 0.625%, 1.25% and 2.5% (w/v)). Cell attachment was determined by direct contact analysis using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM); while the material extracts were used for the analyses of apoptosis by flow cytometry, dentinogenic/osteogenic marker expression by real-time PCR and mineralization activity by Alizarin Red and Von Kossa staining. The cells effectively attached to the surfaces of APC and APC-CT, acquiring flattened elongated and rounded-shape morphology. Treatment of SHED with APC and APC-CT extracts showed no apoptotic effect. APC-CT induced upregulation of DSPP, MEPE, DMP-1, OPN, OCN, OPG and RANKL expression levels in SHED after 14 days, whereas RUNX2, ALP and COL1A1 expression levels were downregulated. Mineralization assays showed a progressive increase in the formation of calcium deposits in cells with material containing higher CT concentration and with incubation time. In conclusion, APC-CT is nontoxic and promotes dentinogenic/osteogenic differentiation and mineralization activity of SHED, indicating its regenerative potential as a promising substitute for the commercially available CSCs to induce dentin/bone regeneration.

Abstract
The use of stem cells in regenerative medicine, including tissue engineering and transplantation, has generated a great deal of enthusiasm. Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) can be isolated from various tissues, most commonly, bone marrow but more recently adipose tissue, dental pulp, and Wharton's jelly, to name a few. MSCs display varying phenotypic profiles and osteogenic differentiating capacity depending and their site of origin. MSCs have been successfully differentiated into osteoblasts both in vitro an in vivo but discrepancies exist when the two are compared: what happens in vitro does not necessarily happen in vivo, and it is therefore important to understand why these differences occur. The osteogenic process is a complex network of transcription factors, stimulators, inhibitors, proteins, etc., and in vivo experiments are helpful in evaluating the various aspects of this osteogenic process without distractions and confounding variables. With that in mind, the results of in vitro experiments need to be carefully considered and interpreted with caution as they do not perfectly replicate the conditions found within living organisms. This is where in vivo experiments help us better understand interactions that might occur in the osteogenic process that cannot be replicated in vitro. Potentially, these differences could also be exploited to develop an optimal MSC cell therapeutic product that can be used for bone disorders. There are many bone disorders, most of which cause a great deal of discomfort. Clinically acceptable protocols could be developed in which MSCs are used to aid in bone regeneration providing relief for patients with chronic pain. The aim of this review is to examine the differences between studies conducted in vitro and in vivo with regard to the osteogenic process to better define the gaps in current osteogenic research. By better understanding osteogenic differentiation, we can better define treatment strategies for various bone disorders.

Abstract
Currently, mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have attracted growing attention in the context of cell-based therapy in regenerative medicine. Following the first successful procurement of human MSCs from bone marrow (BM), these cells isolation has been conducted from various origins, in particular, the umbilical cord (UC). Umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (UC-MSCs) can be acquired by a non-invasive plan and simply cultured, and thereby signifies their superiority over MSCs derived from other sources for medical purposes. Due to their unique attributes, including self-renewal, multipotency, and accessibility concomitant with their immunosuppressive competence and lower ethical concerns, UC-MSCs therapy is described as encouraging therapeutic options in cell-based therapies. Regardless of their unique aptitude to adjust inflammatory response during tissue recovery and delivering solid milieu for tissue restoration, UC-MSCs can be differentiated into a diverse spectrum of adult cells (e.g., osteoblast, chondrocyte, type II alveolar, hepatocyte, and cardiomyocyte). Interestingly, they demonstrate a prolonged survival and longer telomeres compared with MSCs derived from other sources, suggesting that UC-MSCs are desired source to use in regenerative medicine. In the present review, we deliver a brief review of UC-MSCs isolation, expansion concomitantly with immunosuppressive activities, and try to collect and discuss recent pre-clinical and clinical researches based on the use of UC-MSCs in regenerative medicine, focusing on with special focus on in vivo researches.

Abstract
Implant surface plays a crucial role in improving osseointegration and long-term implant life. When the implant comes in contact with the bone tissue, the bone marrow mesenchymal cells interact with the implant surface and the surface properties such as morphology, wettability, mechanical properties and chemistry influences cell migration, proliferation and differentiation. Different surface modification strategies such as ceramic coatings, surface dealloying, and surface topography modifications for improving osteointegration have been investigated. However, studies have not yet established which of the surface property is more influential. In this study, titanium surfaces were treated hydrothermally with sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid separately. This treatment led to the development of two unique surface topography at nanoscale. These modified surfaces were characterized for surface morphology, wettability, chemistry, and crystallinity. Cytotoxicity, cell adhesion, proliferation, morphology, and differentiation of adipose derived stem cells on modified surfaces was investigated. The results indicate that wettability does influence initial cell adhesion. However, the surface morphology can play major role in cell spreading, proliferation and differentiation. The results indicate that titanium surfaces treated hydrothermally with sodium hydroxide led to a nanoporous architecture that promoted appropriate cell interaction with the surface promoting osteoblastic lineage.

Wu Y, Zhang Q, Zhao B, Wang X. Effect and mechanism of propranolol on promoting osteogenic differentiation and early implant osseointegration. Int J Mol Med 2021; 48:191. [PMID: 34414453 PMCID: PMC8416142 DOI: 10.3892/ijmm.2021.5024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the effect of β‑receptor blocker propranolol on early osseointegration of pure titanium implants and the underlying molecular regulatory mechanisms. An implant osseointegration model using the tibial metaphysis of New Zealand rabbits was established. The rabbits were divided into control and low‑, medium‑ and high‑dose propranolol groups. The formation of implant osseointegration was detected by X‑ray scanning. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and osteoblasts (OBs) were isolated and cultured in vitro, isoproterenol was supplemented to simulate sympathetic action and propranolol was subsequently administrated. The effect of propranolol on cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation were assessed by EdU, flow cytometry, alizarin red staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) detection. The expression levels of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)2, RUNX family transcription factor (RunX)2, collagen (COL)‑1, osteocalcin (OCN) and β2‑adrenergic receptor (AR) were detected by immunofluorescence, reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR and western blot assay. Propranolol effectively promoted implant osseointegration in vivo, facilitated proliferation of OBs, inhibited proliferation of MSCs and enhanced osteogenic differentiation of OBs and MSCs. The calcium content and ALP activity of cells treated with propranolol were markedly higher than in the control group. Propranolol also elevated mRNA and protein expression levels of BMP2, RunX2, COL‑1 and OCN in tissue and cells, and decreased the expression of β2‑AR. The present study demonstrated that the β‑receptor blocker propranolol promoted osteogenic differentiation of OBs and MSCs and enhanced implant osseointegration. The present study provided a novel insight into the application and regulatory mechanisms of propranolol.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapies are promising tools for bone tissue regeneration. However, tracking cells and maintaining them in the site of injury is difficult. A potential solution is to seed the cells onto a biocompatible scaffold. Construct development in bone tissue engineering is a complex step-by-step process with many variables to be optimized, such as stem cell source, osteogenic molecular factors, scaffold design, and an appropriate in vivo animal model. In this review, an MSC-based tissue engineering approach for bone repair is reported. Firstly, MSC role in bone formation and regeneration is detailed. Secondly, MSC-based bone tissue biomaterial design is analyzed from a research perspective. Finally, examples of animal preclinical and human clinical trials involving MSCs and scaffolds in bone repair are presented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold promising potential to treat systemic inflammatory diseases including severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). In our previous study, placental chorionic plate-derived MSCs (CP-MSCs) were found to possess superior immunoregulatory capability. However, the therapeutic efficacy of CP-MSCs on SAP and their underlying mechanism remain unclear. METHODS The survival and colonization of exogenous CP-MSCs were observed by bioluminescence imaging and CM-Dil labeling in rodent animal models of SAP. The therapeutic efficacy of CP-MSCs on SAP rats was evaluated by pathology scores, the levels of pancreatitis biomarkers as well as the levels of inflammatory factors in the pancreas and serum. The potential protective mechanism of CP-MSCs in SAP rats was explored by selectively depleting M1 or M2 phenotype macrophages and knocking down the expression of TSG-6. RESULTS Exogenous CP-MSCs could survive and colonize in the injured tissue of SAP such as the lung, pancreas, intestine, and liver. Meanwhile, we found that CP-MSCs alleviated pancreatic injury and systemic inflammation by inducing macrophages to polarize from M1 to M2 in SAP rats. Furthermore, our data suggested that CP-MSCs induced M2 polarization of macrophages by secreting TSG-6, and TSG-6 played a vital role in alleviating pancreatic injury and systemic inflammation in SAP rats. Notably, we found that a high inflammation environment could stimulate CP-MSCs to secrete TSG-6. CONCLUSION Exogenous CP-MSCs tended to colonize in the injured tissue and reduced pancreatic injury and systemic inflammation in SAP rats through inducing M2 polarization of macrophages by secreting TSG-6. Our study provides a new treatment strategy for SAP and initially explains the potential protective mechanism of CP-MSCs on SAP rats.

Abstract
Stem cell therapy has gained much impetus in regenerative medicine due to some of the encouraging results obtained in the laboratory as well as in translational/clinical studies. Although stem cells are of various types and their therapeutic potential has been documented in several studies, mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) have an edge, as in addition to being multipotent, these cells are easy to obtain and expand, pose fewer ethical issues, and possess immense regenerative potential when used in a scientifically correct manner. Currently, MSCs are being sourced from various tissues such as bone marrow, cord, cord blood, adipose tissue, dental tissue, etc., and, quite often, the choice depends on the availability of the source. One such rich source of tissue suitable for obtaining good quality MSCs in large numbers is the placenta obtained in a full-term delivery leading to a healthy child's birth. Several studies have demonstrated the regenerative potential of human placenta-derived MSCs (hPMSC), and most show that these MSCs possess comparable, in some instances, even better, therapeutic potential as that shown by human bone marrow-derived (hBMSC) or human umbilical cord-derived (hUC-MSC) MSCs. The placenta can be easily sourced from the OB/GYN department of any hospital, and if its derivatives such as hPMSC or their EVs are produced under GMP conditions, it could serve as a gold mine for translational/clinical research. Here, we have reviewed recent studies revealing the therapeutic potential of hPMSC and their extracellular vesicles (EVs) published over the past three years.

Abstract
Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) are a class of multifunctional stem cells isolated and cultured from umbilical cord. They possessed the characteristics of highly self-renewal, multi-directional differentiation potential and low immunogenicity. Its application in the field of tissue engineering and gene therapy has achieved a series of results. Recent studies have confirmed their characteristics of inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and migration to nest of cancer. The ability of UC-MSCs to support hematopoietic microenvironment and suppress immune system suggests that they can improve engraftment after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which shows great potential in treatment of hematologic diseases. This review will focus on the latest advances in biological characteristics and mechanism of UC-MSCs in treatment of hematological diseases.

Laminin alpha 4 promotes bone regeneration by facilitating cell adhesion and vascularization. Acta Biomater 2021; 126:183-198. [PMID: 33711525 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2021.03.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2020] [Revised: 02/17/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Selective cell retention (SCR) has been widely used as a bone tissue engineering technique for the real-time fabrication of bone grafts. The greater the number of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) retained in the scaffold, the better the osteoinductive and angiogenic properties of the scaffold's microenvironment. Improved bioscaffold properties in turn lead to improved bone graft survival, bone regeneration, and angiogenesis. Laminin plays a key role in cell-matrix adhesion, cell proliferation, and differentiation. We designed a collagen-binding domain (CBD) containing the core functional amino acid sequences of laminin α4 (CBD-LN peptide) to supplement the functional surface of a collagen-based decalcified bone matrix (DBM) scaffold. This scaffold promoted MSCs and EPCs early cell adhesion through up-regulating the expression of integrin α5β1 and integrin αvβ3 respectively, thus accelerated the following cell spreading, proliferation, and differentiation. Interestingly, it promoted the retention of MSCs (CD90+/CD105+ cells) and EPCs (CD31+ cells) in the scaffold following the use of clinical SCR technology. Furthermore, the DBM/CBD-LN scaffold induced the formation of type H vessels through the activation of the HIF-1α signaling pathway. The DBM/CBD-LN scaffold displayed rapid bone formation and angiogenesis in vivo, suggesting that it might be used as a new biomaterial in bone tissue engineering. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Selective cell retention technology (SCR) has been utilized in clinical settings to manufacture bioactive bone grafts. Specifically, demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is a widely-used SCR clinical biomaterial but it displays poor adhesion performance and angiogenic activity. In this work, we designed a collagen-binding domain (CBD) containing the core functional amino acid sequences of laminin α4 to supplement the functional surface of a collagen-based DBM scaffold. This bioscaffold promoted SCR-mediated MSCs and EPCs early cell adhesion, thus accelerated the following cell spreading, proliferation, and differentiation. Our results indicate this bioscaffold greatly induced osteogenesis and angiogenesis in vivo. In general, this bioscaffold has a good prospect for SCR application and may provide highly bioactive bone implant in clinical environment.

MicroRNA treatment modulates osteogenic differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells derived from human chorion and placenta. Sci Rep 2021; 11:7670.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are important in regenerative medicine because of their potential for multi-differentiation. Bone marrow, chorion and placenta have all been suggested as potential sources for clinical application. However, the osteogenic differentiation potential of MSCs derived from chorion or placenta is not very efficient. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) plays an important role in bone development. Its effect on osteogenic augmentation has been addressed in several studies. Recent studies have also shown a relationship between miRNAs and osteogenesis. We hypothesized that miRNAs targeted to Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2), a major transcription factor of osteogenesis, are responsible for regulating the differentiation of MSCs into osteoblasts. This study examines the effect of BMP-2 on the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs isolated from chorion and placenta in comparison to bone marrow-derived MSCs and investigates the role of miRNAs in the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs from these sources. MSCs were isolated from human bone marrow, chorion and placenta. The osteogenic differentiation potential after BMP-2 treatment was examined using ALP staining, ALP activity assay, and osteogenic gene expression. Candidate miRNAs were selected and their expression levels during osteoblastic differentiation were examined using real-time RT-PCR. The role of these miRNAs in osteogenesis was investigated by transfection with specific miRNA inhibitors. The level of osteogenic differentiation was monitored after anti-miRNA treatment. MSCs isolated from chorion and placenta exhibited self-renewal capacity and multi-lineage differentiation potential similar to MSCs isolated from bone marrow. BMP-2 treated MSCs showed higher ALP levels and osteogenic gene expression compared to untreated MSCs. All investigated miRNAs (miR-31, miR-106a and miR148) were consistently downregulated during the process of osteogenic differentiation. After treatment with miRNA inhibitors, ALP activity and osteogenic gene expression increased over the time of osteogenic differentiation. BMP-2 has a positive effect on osteogenic differentiation of chorion- and placenta-derived MSCs. The inhibition of specific miRNAs enhanced the osteogenic differentiation capacity of various MSCs in culture and this strategy might be used to promote bone regeneration. However, further in vivo experiments are required to assess the validity of this approach.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) showed in vitro mesoderm-lineage differentiation and self-renewal capacity. However, no comparative study was reported on the biological characteristics of stem cells derived from skeletal muscle (SM-MSCs), dermal skin (DS-MSCs), and adipose tissues (A-MSCs) from a single donor in camels. The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of MSCs source on stem cell characteristics. We evaluated proliferation capacity and mesoderm-lineage differentiation potential from SM-MSCs, DS-MSCs, and A-MSCs. They showed spindle-like morphology after homogenization. The proliferation ability was not significantly difference in any of the groups. Furthermore, the portion of the cell cycle and expression of pluripotent markers (Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog) were similar in all cell lines at passage 3. The differentiation capacity of A-MSCs into adipocytes was significantly higher than that of SM-MSCs and DS-MSCs. However, the osteoblast differentiation capacity of A-MSCs was significantly lower than that of SM-MSCs and DS-MSCs. Additionally, after osteoblast differentiation, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium content significantly decreased in A-MSCs compared to SM-MSCs and DS-MSCs. To the best of our knowledge, we primarily established MSCs from the single camel and demonstrated their comparative characteristics, including expression of pluripotent factors and proliferation, and in vitro differentiation capacity into adipocytes and osteoblasts.

Abstract
Lymphedema is a chronic, progressive disease that causes pain as well as heavy economic burdens to patients. Reconstruction of the impaired lymphatic system is the key to treat lymphedema. Currently, there is no cure, but mesenchymal stromal cells show promising potential for lymphatic endothelial regeneration. Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) have been proved to support lymphangiogenesis both in vivo and in vitro. However, the mechanism in vascular endothelial growth factor C-induced (VEGF-C-induced) lymphatic endothelial transdifferentiation of ADSCs remains unknown. In this study, we show a novel link between the Wingless and int-1 (Wnt) pathway and the lymphatic endothelial differentiation process. We used LiCl to activate Wnt and DKK-1 to inhibit Wnt. Compared with the Wnt inhibition group and the control groups, the Wnt activation group produced more lymphatic endothelial cell (LEC)-related mRNA and proteins. Besides, Wnt-activated ADSCs formed longer tubes in two-dimensional culture and promoted the growth of lymphatic vessels in a three-dimensional transwell ADSC-LEC co-culture system. Our results demonstrated that activation of Wnt during the lymphatic endothelial transdifferentiation of ADSCs would enhance the efficacy of VEGF-C treatment. We anticipate our assay to expand our knowledge of Wnt in cell transdifferentiation and lay a foundation for future efforts to explore a novel and effective ADSC-based therapy for lymphedema.

Markov A, Thangavelu L, Aravindhan S, Zekiy AO, Jarahian M, Chartrand MS, Pathak Y, Marofi F, Shamlou S, Hassanzadeh A. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells as a valuable source for the treatment of immune-mediated disorders. Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 12:192. [PMID: 33736695 PMCID: PMC7971361 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-021-02265-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 139] [Impact Index Per Article: 46.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2020] [Accepted: 03/02/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Over recent years, mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) and their potential biomedical applications have received much attention from the global scientific community in an increasing manner. Firstly, MSCs were successfully isolated from human bone marrow (BM), but in the next steps, they were also extracted from other sources, mostly from the umbilical cord (UC) and adipose tissue (AT). The International Society for Cellular Therapy (ISCT) has suggested minimum criteria to identify and characterize MSCs as follows: plastic adherence, surface expression of CD73, D90, CD105 in the lack of expression of CD14, CD34, CD45, and human leucocyte antigen-DR (HLA-DR), and also the capability to differentiate to multiple cell types including adipocyte, chondrocyte, or osteoblast in vitro depends on culture conditions. However, these distinct properties, including self-renewability, multipotency, and easy accessibility are just one side of the coin; another side is their huge secretome which is comprised of hundreds of mediators, cytokines, and signaling molecules and can effectively modulate the inflammatory responses and control the infiltration process that finally leads to a regulated tissue repair/healing or regeneration process. MSC-mediated immunomodulation is a direct result of a harmonic synergy of MSC-released signaling molecules (i.e., mediators, cytokines, and chemokines), the reaction of immune cells and other target cells to those molecules, and also feedback in the MSC-molecule-target cell axis. These features make MSCs a respectable and eligible therapeutic candidate to be evaluated in immune-mediated disorders, such as graft versus host diseases (GVHD), multiple sclerosis (MS), Crohn's disease (CD), and osteoarthritis (OA), and even in immune-dysregulating infectious diseases such as the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This paper discussed the therapeutic applications of MSC secretome and its biomedical aspects related to immune-mediated conditions. Sources for MSC extraction, their migration and homing properties, therapeutic molecules released by MSCs, and the pathways and molecular mechanisms possibly involved in the exceptional immunoregulatory competence of MSCs were discussed. Besides, the novel discoveries and recent findings on immunomodulatory plasticity of MSCs, clinical applications, and the methods required for their use as an effective therapeutic option in patients with immune-mediated/immune-dysregulating diseases were highlighted.

Abstract
The development of bone requires carefully choregraphed signaling to bone progenitors to form bone. Our group recently described the requirement of transforming growth factor beta receptor 3 (TGFβR3), a receptor involved in TGFβ pathway signaling, during osteoblast lineage commitment in mice. The TGFβ pathway is known to play multiple osteo-inductive and osteo-inhibitory roles during osteoblast development and TGFβR3 human mutations are associated with reduced bone mineral density, making TGFβR3 a unique target for bone inductive therapy. In this article, we demonstrated increased mineralization of human pediatric bone-derived osteoblast-like cells (HBO) when treated with soluble TGFβR3 (sR3) using Alizarin Red staining. Osteogenic commitment of HBO cells was demonstrated by induction of osteogenic genes RUNX2, osteocalcin, osteopontin, and osterix. Evaluation of the canonical TGFβ pathway signaling demonstrated that sR3 was able to induce bone formation in HBO cells, mainly through activation of noncanonical targets of TGFβ pathway signaling including AKT, ERK, and p38 MAP kinases. Inhibition of these osteogenic noncanonical pathways in the HBO cells also inhibited mineralization, suggesting they are each required. Although no induction of SMAD1, 5, and 9 was observed, there was the activation of SMAD2 and 3 suggesting that sR3 is primarily signaling via the noncanonical pathways during osteogenic induction of the HBO. Our results highlight the important role of TGFβR3 in osteoblast induction of mineralization in human bone cells through noncanonical targets of TGFβ signaling. Future studies will focus on the ability of sR3 to induce bone regeneration in vivo using animal models.

Abstract
A model of allergic rhinitis (AR) in BALB/c mice was established and evaluated to provide experimental subjects for further research. Preparation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs), including isolation, expansion culture, passaging, cryopreservation, and preparation of cell suspensions, provided materials for experimental research and clinical treatment. The mouse AR model was established by ovalbumin (OVA) intraperitoneal injection and the nasal stimulation induction method, and the model had a good effect and high repeatability. GFP-labeled hUCMSCs had good effects and were stable cells that could be used for tracking in animals. Transplantation of hUCMSCs by intraperitoneal and tail vein injections had a specific effect on the AR model of mice, and tail vein injection had a better effect. Tracking of hUCMSCs in vivo showed that the three groups of mice had the greatest number of hUCMSCs in the nose at week 2. The mouse AR model was used to evaluate the efficacy of hUCMSC transplantation via multiple methods for AR. The distribution of hUCMSCs in vivo was tracked by detecting green fluorescent protein (GFP), and the treatment mechanism of hUCMSCs was elucidated. This study provides technical methods and a theoretical basis for the clinical application of hUCMSCs.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a systemic bone disease with bone fragility and increased fracture risk. The non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have appeared as important regulators of cellular signaling and pertinent human diseases. Studies have demonstrated that circular RNAs (circRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in the progression of osteoporosis through a variety of pathways, and are considered as targets for the prophylaxis and treatment of osteoporosis. Based on an in-depth understanding of their roles and mechanisms in osteoporosis, we summarize the functions and molecular mechanisms of circRNAs and lncRNAs involved in the progression of osteoporosis and provide some new insights for the prognosis, diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.

Abstract
Mimicking the complex hierarchical architecture of the 'osteon', the functional unit of cortical bone, from the bottom-up offers the possibility of generating mature bone tissue in tissue engineered bone substitutes. In this work, a modular 'bottom-up' approach has been developed to assemble bone niche-mimicking nanocomposite scaffolds composed of aligned electrospun nanofibers of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) encapsulating aligned rod-shape nano-sized hydroxyapatite (nHA). By encoding axial orientation of the nHA within these aligned nanocomposite fibers, significant improvements in mechanical properties, surface roughness, hydrophilicity and in vitro simulated body fluid (SBF) mineral deposition were achieved. Moreover, these hierarchical scaffolds induced robust formation of bone hydroxyapatite and osteoblastic maturation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) in growth media that was absent of any soluble osteogenic differentiation factors. The results of this investigation confirm that these tailored, aligned nanocomposite fibers, in the absence of media-bone inductive factors, offer the requisite biophysical and biochemical cues to hBMSCs to promote and support their differentiation into mature osteoblast cells and form early bone-like tissue in vitro.

Abstract
Background Bone grafting has been considered the gold standard for hard tissue reconstructive surgery and is widely used for large mandibular defect reconstruction. However, the midface encompasses delicate structures that are surrounded by a complex bone architecture, which makes bone grafting using traditional methods very challenging. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is a developing technology that is derived from the evolution of additive manufacturing. It enables precise development of a scaffold from different available biomaterials that mimic the shape, size, and dimension of a defect without relying only on the surgeon’s skills and capabilities, and subsequently, may enhance surgical outcomes and, in turn, patient satisfaction and quality of life. Review This review summarizes different biomaterial classes that can be used in 3D bioprinters as bioinks to fabricate bone scaffolds, including polymers, bioceramics, and composites. It also describes the advantages and limitations of the three currently used 3D bioprinting technologies: inkjet bioprinting, micro-extrusion, and laser-assisted bioprinting. Conclusions Although 3D bioprinting technology is still in its infancy and requires further development and optimization both in biomaterials and techniques, it offers great promise and potential for facial reconstruction with improved outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs), regardless of the tissue sources, are considered as excellent candidates for cellular therapy as they are immune-privileged cells containing a multitude of therapeutic functions that aid in tissue regeneration and repair. For the effective application of these cells in cell therapy, it is important to understand and characterize their biological functions. OBJECTIVES The present study attempts to characterize the variations in multipotent function such as cell surface antigen levels, proliferation, differentiation and stemness (pluripotency) potential of MSCs isolated from foetal [wharton's jelly (WJ), foetal and maternal side of placenta (PF and PM)] and adult tissue sources [bone marrow (BM) and adipose tissue (AT)] using gene expression by real time PCR (qRT-PCR). RESULTS Amongst the different tissue sources, PM, PF and AT-MSCs exhibited significant increase (p < 0.001, p < 0.001 and p < 0.01 respectively) in CD 73 expression and therefore could have a role in immunomodulation. WJ-MSCs exhibited superior proliferation potential based on growth curve, PCNA and Wnt gene expression. BM-MSCs were superior in exhibiting trilineage differentiation. Enhanced stemness potential (Oct 4 and Nanog) was observed for both BM and WJ-MSCs. In addition, BM and WJ-MSCs expressed high levels of CD 90 making them suitable in bone repair and regeneration. CONCLUSION Thus to conclude, out of the five different sources tested, BM an adult source and WJ-MSCs a foetal source were superior in exhibiting most of the biological functions indicating that these sources may be suitable candidates for cell repair and regeneration studies.

Abstract
There are numerous sources of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) with therapeutic potential, and bone marrow is the main one. However, pain, lack of donors and comorbidities associated with harvesting stimulate the search for new sources of MSCs. The aim of this work is to obtain cells from umbilical cord (UC) perivascular tissue of dogs and characterize them as MSCs. For this, the UC was obtained from therapeutic cesarean sections and submitted to enzymatic digestion. The obtained cells were subjected to growth and proliferation tests, as well as the analysis of surface markers, differentiation test in three mesenchymal lineages and analysis of differentiation markers expression. From all the UC used in this study an adherent with fibroblastoid shape cell was obtained, with an initial number of 4.8 × 105 of cells. The growth curves showed a lag phase from 0 to 24 h, followed by a phase of growth of 24 to 168 h, and then phase of cell decay. The doubling time was kept around 15 h until the sixth passage, from which there were signs of cellular senescence. The differentiation assays demonstrated the ability of cells to differentiate into osteoblasts, adipocytes and chondrocytes when subjected to the induction mediums. The study of surface markers was positive for adhesion markers and negative for hematopoietic markers. Thus, cells obtained from canine UC perivascular tissue by enzymatic digestion are multipotent MSC and the protocol developed ensures the perivascular origin of these cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ALI/ARDS is the major cause of acute respiratory failure in critically ill patients. As human chorionic villi-derived MSCs (hCMSCs) could attenuate ALI in the airway injury model, and liraglutide, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) agonist, possesses anti-inflammatory and proliferation promotion functions, we proposed to probe the potential combinatory effect of hCMSCs and liraglutide on ALI. METHODS We examined the time- and dose-dependent manner of GLP-1R, SPC, Ang-1, and FGF-10 with LPS via western blot and qRT-PCR. Western blot and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay detected the effects of liraglutide on GLP-1R, SPC, Ang-1, and FGF-10 through PKAc/β-catenin pathway and cAMP pathway. In the ALI animal model, we detected the effects of MSC and liraglutide combination on ALI symptoms by H&E staining, western blot, ELISA assays, calculating wet-to-dry ratio of the lung tissue, and counting neutrophils, leukocytes, and macrophages in mouse bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). RESULTS The data demonstrated that LPS reduced hCMSC proliferation and GLP-1R, SPC, Ang-1, and FGF-10 levels in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Liraglutide significantly dampened the reduction of GLP-1R, SPC, Ang-1, and FGF-10 and reversed the effect of LPS on hCMSCs, which could be regulated by GLP-1R and its downstream cAMP/PKAc/β-catenin-TCF4 signaling. Combination of hCMSCs with liraglutide showed more therapeutic efficacy than liraglutide alone in reducing LPS-induced ALI in the animal model. CONCLUSIONS These results reveal that the combination of hCMSCs and liraglutide might be an effective strategy for ALI treatment.
