Abstract
The osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation ability of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) and their potential therapeutic applications in bone and cartilage defects are reported in this review. This becomes particularly important when these disorders can only be poorly treated by conventional therapeutic approaches, and tissue engineering may represent a valuable alternative. Being of mesodermal origin, ASCs can be easily induced to differentiate into chondrocyte-like and osteocyte-like elements and used to repair damaged tissues. Moreover, they can be easily harvested and used for autologous implantation. A plethora of ASC-based strategies are being developed worldwide: they include the transplantation of freshly harvested cells, in vitro expanded cells or predifferentiated cells. Moreover, improving their positive effects, ASCs can be implanted in combination with several types of scaffolds that ensure the correct cell positioning; support cell viability, proliferation and migration; and may contribute to their osteogenic or chondrogenic differentiation. Examples of these strategies are described here, showing the enormous therapeutic potential of ASCs in this field. For safety and regulatory issues, most investigations are still at the experimental stage and carried out in vitro and in animal models. Clinical applications have, however, been reported with promising results and no serious adverse effects.

Abstract
Bones play an important role in maintaining exercise and protecting organs. Bone defect, as a common orthopedic disease in clinics, can cause tremendous damage with long treatment cycles. Therefore, the treatment of bone defect remains as one of the main challenges in clinical practice. Today, with increased incidence of bone disease in the aging population, demand for bone repair material is high. At present, the method of clinical treatment for bone defects including non-invasive therapy and invasive therapy. Surgical treatment is the most effective way to treat bone defects, such as using bone grafts, Masquelet technique, Ilizarov technique etc. In recent years, the rapid development of tissue engineering technology provides a new treatment strategy for bone repair. This review paper introduces the current situation and challenges of clinical treatment of bone defect repair in detail. The advantages and disadvantages of bone tissue engineering scaffolds are comprehensively discussed from the aspect of material, preparation technology, and function of bone tissue engineering scaffolds. This paper also summarizes the 3D printing technology based on computer technology, aiming at designing personalized artificial scaffolds that can accurately fit bone defects.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is a rapidly developing field with potential for the regeneration of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) bones, with 3D printing being a suitable fabrication tool for patient‐specific implants. The CMF region includes a variety of different bones with distinct functions. The clinical implementation of tissue engineering concepts is currently poor, likely due to multiple reasons including the complexity of the CMF anatomy and biology, and the limited relevance of the currently used preclinical models. The ‘recapitulation of a human disease’ is a core requisite of preclinical animal models, but this aspect is often neglected, with a vast majority of studies failing to identify the specific clinical indication they are targeting and/or the rationale for choosing one animal model over another. Currently, there are no suitable guidelines that propose the most appropriate animal model to address a specific CMF pathology and no standards are established to test the efficacy of biomaterials or tissue engineered constructs in the CMF field. This review reports the current clinical scenario of CMF reconstruction, then discusses the numerous limitations of currently used preclinical animal models employed for validating 3D‐printed tissue engineered constructs and the need to reduce animal work that does not address a specific clinical question. We will highlight critical research aspects to consider, to pave a clinically driven path for the development of new tissue engineered materials for CMF reconstruction.

Abstract
Owing to their excellent biocompatibility and corrosion-resistant properties, titanium (Ti) (and its alloy) are essential artificial substitute biomaterials for orthopedics. However, flaws, such as weak osteogenic induction ability and higher Young's modulus, have been observed during clinical application. As a result, short- and long-term postoperative follow-up has found that several complications have occurred. For decades, scientists have exerted efforts to compensate for these deficiencies. Different modification methods have been investigated, including changing alloy contents, surface structure transformation, three-dimensional (3D) structure transformation, coating, and surface functionalization technologies. The cell-surface interaction effect and imitation of the natural 3D bone structure are the two main mechanisms of these improved methods. In recent years, significant progress has been made in materials science research methods, including thorough research of titanium alloys of different compositions, precise surface pattern control technology, controllable 3D structure construction technology, improvement of coating technologies, and novel concepts of surface functionalization. These improvements facilitate the possibility for further research in the field of bone tissue engineering. Although the underlying mechanism is still not fully understood, these studies still have some implications for clinical practice. Therefore, for the direction of further research, it is beneficial to summarize these studies according to the basal method used. This literature review aimed to classify these technologies, thereby providing beginners with a preliminary understanding of the field.

Abstract
Objective Mechanic strength, pore morphology and size are key factors for the three-dimensional (3D) printing of porous titanium scaffolds, therefore, developing optimal structure for the 3D printed titanium scaffold to fill bone defects in knee joints is instructive and important. Methods Structural models of titanium scaffolds with fifteen different pore unit were designed with 3D printing computer software; five different scaffold shapes were designed: imitation diamond-60°, imitation diamond-90°, imitation diamond-120°, regular tetrahedron and regular hexahedron. Each structural shape was evaluated with three pore sizes (400, 600 and 800 μm), and fifteen types of cylindrical models (size: 20 mm; height: 20 mm). Autodesk Inventor software was used to determine the strength and safety of the models by simulating simple strength acting on the knee joints. We analyzed the data and found suitable models for the design of 3D printing of porous titanium scaffolds. Results Fifteen different types of pore unit structural models were evaluated under positive pressure and lateral pressure; the compressive strength reduced when the pore size increased. Under torsional pressure, the strengths of the imitation diamond structure were similar when the pore size increased, and the strengths of the regular tetrahedron and regular hexahedron structures reduced when the pore size increased. In each case, the compressive strength of the regular hexahedron structure was highest, that of the regular tetrahedron was second highest, and that of the imitation diamond structure was relatively low. Fifteen types of cylindrical models under a set force were evaluated, and the sequence of comprehensive compressive strength, from strong to weak was: regular hexahedron > regular tetrahedron > imitation diamond-120° > imitation diamond-90° > imitation diamond-60°. The compressive strength of cylinder models was higher when the pore size was smaller. Conclusion The pore size and pore morphology were important factors influencing the compressive strength. The strength of each structure reduced when the pore size (400, 600 and 800 μm) increased. The models of regular hexahedron, regular tetrahedron and imitation diamond-120°appeared to meet the conditions of large pore sizes and high compressive strength.

[PMID: 34124847 PMCID: PMC8313164 DOI: 10.1111/os.13020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2020] [Revised: 03/18/2021] [Accepted: 03/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE A bone defect rat model was established to investigate the osteogenic effect of local delivery two antibiotics (vancomycin and tobramycin powder) on bone regeneration. METHODS Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rats (6 to 8 weeks, 200 to 250 g) were used in this study. All these rats were randomly divided into four groups. Based on dose conversion between rat and human via body surface area, the rat dose of two antibiotics was 88μg/g and 176 μg/g for vancomycin and tobramycin, respectively. Con group (no antibiotic), Van group (vancomycin, 88 μg/g), Tob group (tobramycin 176 μg/g), and Van+Tob group (vancomycin 88μg/g combined with tobramycin 176 μg/g). A 5.0-mm full-thickness standardized mandibular bone defect was performed with a drill in each rat and different antibiotic powders were placed over the bone defect space, respectively. All these animals were sacrificed after 12 weeks post-operation. The mandible bones were harvested for further radiographic and histologic analysis. The bone volume/total volume (BV/TV) ratio, bone volume (BV), and bone fractional area (BFA) in the defect area via micro-computed tomography (μCT scanning) were further analyzed. Then, we performed a histological assessment via hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson's trichrome staining to analyze bone regeneration and also analyze the number of osteoblasts per filed. RESULTS There were no postoperative deaths, signs of vancomycin-related or tobramycin-related toxicity, or signs of systemic illness in any of the four groups. All wounds healed well, and no complications or surgical site infection were observed in all rats. From the μCT scans analyses, there was less bone regeneration in the Van group than in the Con group (BV/TV: F = 64.29, R2 = 0.9602; P = 0.0052; BFA: F = 76.17, R2 = 0.9662, P = 0.0007; BV: F = 194.4, R2 = 0.9865, P = 0.0022). However, when the tobramycin and vancomycin were combined, an increase in bone defect re-ossification was found in the Van+Tob group than in the Van group (BV/TV: F = 64.29, R2 = 0.9602, P = 0.0033; BFA: F = 76.17, R2 = 0.9662, P = 0.0006; BV: F = 194.4, R2 = 0.9865, P = 0.0033). Routine H&E and Masson staining supported the finding of μCT scanning. Quantitative indices confirmed that both the bone regeneration and the number of osteoblasts per filed in the defect area was higher in the Van+Tob group than in the Van group (percentage of bone tissue: F = 145.7, R2 = 0.9562, P = 0.0008; number of osteoblasts per file; F = 67.3, R2 = 0.9098, P < 0.0001). There was no significant difference between the Con group and the Van+Tob group on the number of osteoblasts each field (F = 145.7, R2 = 0.9562, P > 0.9999). CONCLUSION For bone defect, local application of vancomycin combined with tobramycin was recommended over vancomycin alone. This animal study presents data suggesting that the use of local delivery of vancomycin and tobramycin should be investigated further in clinical studies.

Abstract
Human adipose-derived stromal/stem cells (hASC) are widely used for in vitro modeling of physiologically relevant human adipose tissue. These models are useful for the development of tissue constructs for soft tissue regeneration and 3-dimensional (3D) microphysiological systems (MPS) for drug discovery. In this systematic review, we report on the current state of hASC culture and assessment methods for adipose tissue engineering using 3D MPS. Our search efforts resulted in the identification of 184 independent records, of which 27 were determined to be most relevant to the goals of the present review. Our results demonstrate a lack of consensus on methods for hASC culture and assessment for the production of physiologically relevant in vitro models of human adipose tissue. Few studies have assessed the impact of different 3D culture conditions on hASC adipogenesis. Additionally, there has been a limited use of assays for characterizing the functionality of adipose tissue in vitro. Results from this study suggest the need for more standardized culture methods and further analysis on in vitro tissue functionality. These will be necessary to validate the utility of 3D MPS as an in vitro model to reduce, refine, and replace in vivo experiments in the drug discovery regulatory process.

Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 9:604400. [PMID: 33692995 PMCID: PMC7937634 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2021.604400] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2020] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) antisense non-coding RNA in the INK4 locus (ANRIL) is a base length of about 3.8 kb lncRNA, which plays an important role in several biological functions including cell proliferation, migration, and senescence. This study ascertained the role of lncRNA ANRIL in the senescence and osteogenic differentiation of inflamed periodontal ligament stem cells (iPDLSCs). Methods Healthy periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and iPDLSCs were isolated from healthy/inflamed periodontal ligament tissues, respectively. The proliferation abilities were determined by CCK-8, EdU assay, and flow cytometry (FCM). The methods of Western blot assay (WB), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), alizarin red staining, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, ALP activity detection, and immunofluorescence staining were described to determine the biological influences of lncRNA ANRIL on iPDLSCs. Senescence-associated (SA)-β-galactosidase (gal) staining, Western blot analysis, and qRT-PCR were performed to determine cell senescence. Dual-luciferase reporter assays were conducted to confirm the binding of lncRNA ANRIL and miR-7-5-p, as well as miR-7-5p and insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R). Results HPDLSCs and iPDLSCs were isolated and cultured successfully. LncRNA ANRIL and IGF-1R were declined, while miR-7-5p was upregulated in iPDLSCs compared with hPDLSCs. Overexpression of ANRIL enhanced the osteogenic protein expressions of OSX, RUNX2, ALP, and knocked down the aging protein expressions of p16, p21, p53. LncRNA ANRIL could promote the committed differentiation of iPDLSCs by sponging miR-7-5p. Upregulating miR-7-5p inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of iPDLSCs. Further analysis identified IGF-1R as a direct target of miR-7-5p. The direct binding of lncRNA ANRIL and miR-7-5p, miR-7-5p and the 3′-UTR of IGF-1R were verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. Besides, rescue experiments showed that knockdown of miR-7-5p reversed the inhibitory effect of lncRNA ANRIL deficiency on osteogenesis of iPDLSCs. Conclusion This study disclosed that lncRNA ANRIL promotes osteogenic differentiation of iPDLSCs by regulating the miR-7-5p/IGF-1R axis.

Ma J, Zhu L, Zhou Z, Song T, Yang L, Yan X, Chen A, Ye TW. The calcium channel TRPV6 is a novel regulator of RANKL-induced osteoclastic differentiation and bone absorption activity through the IGF-PI3K-AKT pathway. Cell Prolif 2020; 54:e12955. [PMID: 33159483 PMCID: PMC7791174 DOI: 10.1111/cpr.12955] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2020] [Revised: 10/01/2020] [Accepted: 10/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives Calcium ion signals are important for osteoclast differentiation. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 6 (TRPV6) is a regulator of bone homeostasis. However, it was unclear whether TRPV6 was involved in osteoclast formation. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the role of TPRV6 in bone metabolism and to clarify its regulatory role in osteoclasts at the cellular level. Materials and methods Bone structure and histological changes in Trpv6 knockout mice were examined using micro‐computed tomography and histological analyses. To investigate the effects of Trpv6 on osteoclast function, we silenced or overexpressed Trpv6 in osteoclasts via lentivirus transfection, respectively. Osteoclast differentiation and bone resorption viability were measured by tartrate‐resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining and pit formation assays. The expression of osteoclast marker genes, including cathepsin k, DC‐STAMP, Atp6v0d2 and TRAP, was measured by qRT‐PCR. Cell immunofluorescence and Western blotting were applied to explore the mechanisms by which the IGF‐PI3K‐AKT pathway was involved in the regulation of osteoclast formation and bone resorption by Trpv6. Results We found that knockout of Trpv6 induced osteoporosis and enhanced bone resorption in mice, but did not affect bone formation. Further studies showed that Trpv6, which was distributed on the cell membrane of osteoclasts, acted as a negative regulator for osteoclast differentiation and function. Mechanistically, Trpv6 suppressed osteoclastogenesis by decreasing the ratios of phosphoprotein/total protein in the IGF–PI3K–AKT signalling pathway. Blocking of the IGF–PI3K–AKT pathway significantly alleviated the inhibitory effect of Trpv6 on osteoclasts formation. Conclusions Our study confirmed the important role of Trpv6 in bone metabolism and clarified its regulatory role in osteoclasts at the cellular level. Taken together, this study may inspire a new strategy for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Curr Osteoporos Rep 2020; 18:541-550.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Bone regeneration plays an important role in contemporary clinical treatment. Bone tissue engineering should result in successful bone regeneration to restore congenital or acquired bone defects in the human skeleton. Osteocytes are thought to have a governing role in bone remodeling by regulating osteoclast and osteoblast activity, and thus bone loss and formation. In this review, we address the so far largely unknown role osteocytes may play in bone tissue regeneration. RECENT FINDINGS Osteocytes release biochemical signaling molecules involved in bone remodeling such as prostaglandins, nitric oxide, Wnts, and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). Treatment of mesenchymal stem cells in bone tissue engineering with prostaglandins (e.g., PGE2, PGI2, PGF2α), nitric oxide, IGF-1, or Wnts (e.g., Wnt3a) improves osteogenesis. This review provides an overview of the functions of osteocytes in bone tissue, their interaction with other bone cells, and their role in bone remodeling. We postulate that osteocytes may have a pivotal role in bone regeneration as well, and consequently that the bone regeneration process may be improved effectively and rapidly if osteocytes are optimally used and stimulated.
