Abstract
Bone regeneration involves multiple factors such as tissue interactions, an inflammatory response, and vessel formation. In the event of diseases, old age, lifestyle, or trauma, bone regeneration can be impaired which could result in a prolonged healing duration or requiring an external intervention for repair. Currently, bone grafts hold the golden standard for bone regeneration. However, several limitations hinder its clinical applications, e.g., donor site morbidity, an insufficient tissue volume, and uncertain post-operative outcomes. Bone tissue engineering, involving stem cells seeded onto scaffolds, has thus been a promising treatment alternative for bone regeneration. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) are known to hold therapeutic value for the treatment of various clinical conditions and have displayed feasibility and significant effectiveness due to their ease of isolation, non-invasive, abundance in quantity, and osteogenic capacity. Notably, in vitro studies showed AD-MSCs holding a high proliferation capacity, multi-differentiation potential through the release of a variety of factors, and extracellular vesicles, allowing them to repair damaged tissues. In vivo and clinical studies showed AD-MSCs favoring better vascularization and the integration of the scaffolds, while the presence of scaffolds has enhanced the osteogenesis potential of AD-MSCs, thus yielding optimal bone formation outcomes. Effective bone regeneration requires the interplay of both AD-MSCs and scaffolds (material, pore size) to improve the osteogenic and vasculogenic capacity. This review presents the advances and applications of AD-MSCs for bone regeneration and bone tissue engineering, focusing on the in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies involving AD-MSCs for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Cell-based therapy has become an achievable choice in regenerative medicines, particularly for musculoskeletal disorders. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are an outstanding resource because of their ability and functions. Nevertheless, the use of cells for treatment comes with difficulties in operation and safety. The immunological barrier is also a major limitation of cell therapy, which can lead to unexpected results. Cell-derived products, such as cell extracts, have gained a lot of attention to overcome these limitations. The goal of this study was to optimize the production of ASC-osteoblast extracts as well as their involvement in osteogenesis. The extracts were prepared using a freeze-thaw method with varying temperatures and durations. Overall, osteogenic-associated proteins and osteoinductive potential of the extracts prepared from the osteogenic-induced ASCs were assessed. Our results demonstrated that the freeze-thaw approach is practicable for cell extracts production, with minor differences in temperature and duration having no effect on protein concentration. The ASC-osteoblast extracts contain a significant level of essential specialized proteins that promote osteogenicity. Hence, the freeze-thaw method is applicable for extract preparation and ASC-osteoblast extracts may be beneficial as an optional facilitating biologics in bone anabolic treatment and bone regeneration.

World J Stem Cells 2024; 16:176-190.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cartilage defects are some of the most common causes of arthritis. Cartilage lesions caused by inflammation, trauma or degenerative disease normally result in osteochondral defects. Previous studies have shown that decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from autologous, allogenic, or xenogeneic mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can effectively restore osteochondral integrity. AIM To determine whether the decellularized ECM of antler reserve mesenchymal cells (RMCs), a xenogeneic material from antler stem cells, is superior to the currently available treatments for osteochondral defects. METHODS We isolated the RMCs from a 60-d-old sika deer antler and cultured them in vitro to 70% confluence; 50 mg/mL L-ascorbic acid was then added to the medium to stimulate ECM deposition. Decellularized sheets of adipocyte-derived MSCs (aMSCs) and antlerogenic periosteal cells (another type of antler stem cells) were used as the controls. Three weeks after ascorbic acid stimulation, the ECM sheets were harvested and applied to the osteochondral defects in rat knee joints. RESULTS The defects were successfully repaired by applying the ECM-sheets. The highest quality of repair was achieved in the RMC-ECM group both in vitro (including cell attachment and proliferation), and in vivo (including the simultaneous regeneration of well-vascularized subchondral bone and avascular articular hyaline cartilage integrated with surrounding native tissues). Notably, the antler-stem-cell-derived ECM (xenogeneic) performed better than the aMSC-ECM (allogenic), while the ECM of the active antler stem cells was superior to that of the quiescent antler stem cells. CONCLUSION Decellularized xenogeneic ECM derived from the antler stem cell, particularly the active form (RMC-ECM), can achieve high quality repair/reconstruction of osteochondral defects, suggesting that selection of decellularized ECM for such repair should be focused more on bioactivity rather than kinship.

Abstract
Adipose stem cells (ASCs) have multilineage differentiation capacity and hold great potential for regenerative medicine. Compared to bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (bmMSCs), ASCs are easier to isolate from abundant sources with significantly higher yields. It is generally accepted that bmMSCs show age-related changes in their proliferation and differentiation potentials, whereas this aspect is still controversial in the case of ASCs. In this review, we evaluated the existing data on the effect of donor age on the osteogenic potential of human ASCs. Overall, a poor agreement has been achieved because of inconsistent findings in the previous studies. Finally, we attempted to delineate the possible reasons behind the lack of agreements reported in the literature. ASCs represent a heterogeneous cell population, and the osteogenic potential of ASCs can be influenced by donor-related factors such as age, but also gender, lifestyle, and the underlying health and metabolic state of donors. Furthermore, future studies should consider experimental factors in in vitro conditions, including passaging, cryopreservation, culture conditions, variations in differentiation protocols, and readout methods.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop a novel culture method for rat adipose-derived stem cells (rADSC) and evaluate their osteogenic potential. The rADSC cultured in xeno-free culture medium (XF-rADSCs) or conventional culture medium containing fetal bovine serum (FBS-rADSCs) were combined with micropieces of xeno-free recombinant collagen peptide to form 3-dimensional aggregates (XF-rADSC-CellSaic or FBS-rADSC-CellSaic). Both FBS-rADSC and XF-ADSC in CellSaic exhibited multilineage differentiation potential. Compared to FBS-rADSC-CellSaic, XF-rADSC-CellSaic accelerated and promoted osteogenic differentiation in vitro. When transplanted into rat mandibular congenital bone defects, the osteogenically differentiated XF-rADSC-CellSaic induced regeneration of bone tissue with a highly maturated structure compared to FBS-rADSC-CellSaic. In conclusion, XF-rADSC-CellSaic is a feasible 3-dimensional platform for efficient bone formation.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of autologous microfragmented adipose tissue (MFAT) applied after mechanical fragmentation and assess these effects radiographically in bone healing in dogs subjected to tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO). Twenty dogs with unilateral cranial cruciate ligament disease were enrolled and randomly assigned to the treatment group (MFAT) or the control group (NT). The MFAT group underwent TPLO and autologous MFAT intra-articular administration, while the NT group underwent TPLO alone. Adipose tissue was collected from the thigh region, and MFAT was obtained by mechanical fragmentation at the end of the surgery. The patients were subjected to X-ray examination preoperatively, immediately postoperatively (T0), and at 4 (T1) and 8 (T2) weeks postoperatively. Two radiographic scores that had previously been described for the evaluation of bone healing after TPLO were used. A 12-point scoring system (from 0 = no healing to 12 = complete remodelling) was used at T0, T1, and T2, while a 5-point scoring system (from 0 = no healing to 4 = 76-100% of healing) was used at T1 and T2. The median healing scores were significantly higher at T1 and T2 for the MFAT group compared with the NT group for the 12-point (p < 0.05) and 5-point (p < 0.05) scoring systems. The intra-articular injection of autologous microfragmented adipose tissue can accelerate bone healing after TPLO without complications.

Abstract
The aim of this current study was to establish a metaphyseal femoral non-union model in osteoporotic rats by comparing a power tool versus a manual tool for fracture creation. Twelve adult female Sprague Dawley rats were ovariectomized (OVX) and received a special diet for 6 weeks. Biweekly pQCT measurements confirmed a significant reduction in the cancellous and total bone mineral density in OVX rats compared to control (CTRL) animals. After 6 weeks, OVX rats underwent surgery creating a distal metaphyseal osteotomy, either using a piezoelectric- (n = 6) or a manual Gigli wire (n = 6) saw. Fractures were stabilized with a Y-shaped mini-locking plate. Within each group, three rats received Alginate directly into the fracture gap. OVX animals gained more weight over 8 weeks compared to CTRL animals. pQCT analysis showed a significant difference in the volumetric cancellous bone mineral density between OVX and CTRL rats. A histological examination of the osteoporotic phenotype was completed. Radiographic evaluation and Masson–Goldner trichrome staining with the piezoelectric saw failed to demonstrate bony bridging or a callus formation. New bone formation and complete healing were seen after 6 weeks in the Gigli group. For the creation of a metaphyseal atrophic non-union in the osteoporotic bone, a piezoelectric saw should be used.

Abstract
The mechanism of the impact of hyperlipidemia on bone tissue homeostasis is unclear, and the role of lipophagy is yet to be investigated. This study investigated changes in lipophagy and osteogenesis levels under hyperlipemic conditions and explored the effects of lipophagy on bone regeneration. In vivo, femurs of mice with diet-induced moderate hyperlipidemia were ground out with a ball drill to create defects. In vitro, mouse osteoblast cell lines were grown in two different concentrations of the high-fat medium. We found that at hyperphysiological of lipid conditions, activation of lipophagy restored osteoblast function in a way, and similar results were observed in mice with diet-induced hyperlipidemia. Still, at suprahyperphysiological concentrations of lipid culture, the activation of lipophagy further inhibited osteogenesis, and inhibition of autophagy instead promoted osteogenesis to a small extent. These results demonstrate that lipophagy functions differently in diverse high-fat environments, suggesting that cellular and organismal changes in response to high-fat stimuli are dynamic. This may provide new ideas for improving bone dysfunction caused by lipid metabolism disorders.

Abstract
Treatment of urethral mucosa defects is a major challenge in urology. Synthetic materials or autologous mucosa does not provide satisfactory treatment options for long-term or large urethral mucosa defects. In response to this problem, we used autologous adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) to synthesize cell sheets in vitro for repairing urethral mucosa defect models. In order to monitor the localization and distribution of cell sheets in vivo, cells and sheets were labeled with indocyanine green (ICG) and the second near-infrared (NIR-II) fluorescence imaging was performed. ICG-based NIR-II imaging can successfully track ADSCs and sheets in vivo up to 8 W. Then, rabbit urethral mucosa defect models were repaired with ICG-ADSCs sheets. At 3 months after operation, retrograde urethrography showed that ADSC sheets could effectively repair urethral mucosa defect and restore urethral patency. Histological analysis showed that in ADSC sheet groups, continuous epithelial cells covered the urethra at the transplantation site, and a large number of vascular endothelial cells could also be seen. In the cell-free sheet group, there was no continuous epithelial cell coverage at the repair site of the urethra, and the expression of pro-inflammatory factor TNF-α was increased. It shows that the extracellular matrix alone without cells is not suitable for repairing urethral defects. Surviving ADSCs in the sheets may play a key role in the repair process. This study provides a new tracing method for tissue engineering to dynamically track grafts using an NIR-II imaging system. The ADSC sheets can effectively restore the structure and function of the urethra. It provides a new option for the repair of urethral mucosa defects.

In the field of orthopaedics, bone defects caused by severe trauma, infection, tumor resection, and skeletal abnormalities are very common. However, due to the lengthy and painful process of related surgery, people intend to shorten the recovery period and reduce the risk of rejection; as a result, more attention is being paid to bone regeneration with mesenchymal stromal cells, one of which is the adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) from adipose tissue. After continuous subculture and cryopreservation, ASCs still have the potential for multidirectional differentiation. They can be implanted in the human body to promote bone repair after induction in vitro, solve the problems of scarce sources and large damage, and are expected to be used in the treatment of bone defects and non-union fractures. However, the diversity of its differentiation lineage and the lack of bone formation potential limit its current applications in bone disease. Here, we concluded the current applications of ASCs in bone repair, especially with the combination and use of physical and biological methods. ASCs alone have been proved to contribute to the repair of bone damage in vivo and in vitro. Attaching to bone scaffolds or adding bioactive molecules can enhance the formation of the bone matrix. Moreover, we further evaluated the efficiency of ASC-committed differentiation in the bone in conditions of cell experiments, animal models, and clinical trials. The results show that ASCs in combination with synthetic bone grafts and biomaterials may affect the regeneration, augmentation, and vascularization of bone defects on bone healing. The specific conclusion of different materials applied with ASCs may vary. It has been confirmed to benefit osteogenesis by regulating osteogenic signaling pathways and gene transduction. Exosomes secreted by ASCs also play an important role in osteogenesis. This review will illustrate the understanding of scientists and clinicians of the enormous promise of ASCs’ current applications and future development in bone repair and regeneration, and provide an incentive for superior employment of such strategies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bone defects caused by diseases and trauma are usually accompanied by inflammation, and the implantation of biomaterials as a common repair method has also been found to cause inflammatory reactions, which affect bone metabolism and new bone formation. This study investigated whether exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC-Exos) plays an immunomodulatory role in traumatic bone defects and elucidated the underlying mechanisms. METHODS ADSC-Exos were loaded by a biomaterial named gelatine nanoparticles (GNPs), physical and chemical properties were analysed by zeta potential, surface topography and rheology. A rat model of skull defect was used for our in vivo studies, and micro-CT and histological staining were used to analyse histological changes in the bone defect area. RT-qPCR and western blotting were performed to verify that ADSC-Exos could regulate M1/M2 macrophage polarization. MicroRNA (miRNA) array analysis was conducted to determine the miRNA expression profiles of ADSC-Exos. After macrophages were treated with a miR-451a mimic, miR-451a inhibitor and ISO-1, the relative expression of genes and proteins was measured by RT-qPCR and western blotting. RESULTS In vivo, micro-CT and histological staining showed that exosome-loaded GNPs (GNP-Exos) hydrogel, with good biocompatibility and strong mechanical adaptability, exhibited immunomodulatory effect mainly by regulating macrophage immunity and promoting bone tissue healing. Immunofluorescence further indicated that ADSC-Exos reduced M1 marker (iNOS) expression and increased M2 marker (CD206) expression. Moreover, in vitro studies, western blotting and RT-qPCR showed that ADSC-Exos inhibited M1 macrophage marker expression and upregulated M2 macrophage marker expression. MiR-451a was enriched in ADSC-Exos and targeted macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). Macrophages treated with the miR-451a mimic showed lower expression of M1 markers. In contrast, miR-451a inhibitor treatment upregulated the expression of M1 markers and downregulated the expression of M2 markers, while ISO-1 (a MIF inhibitor) treatment upregulated miR-451a expression and downregulated M1 macrophage marker expression. CONCLUSION GNP-Exos can effectively regulate bone immune metabolism and further promote bone healing partly through immune regulation of miR-451a, which may provide a therapeutic direction for bone repair.

Bioeng Transl Med 2022; 7:e10260.

Abstract
Medical devices made from poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)-based silicone implants have been broadly used owing to their inert properties, biocompatibility, and low toxicity. However, long-term implantation is usually associated with complications, such as capsular contracture due to excessive local inflammatory response, subsequently requiring implant removal. Therefore, modification of the silicone surface to reduce a risk of capsular contracture has attracted increasing attention. Human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) are known to provide potentially therapeutic applications for tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and reconstructive surgery. Herein, hASCs coating on a PDMS (hASC-PDMS) or itaconic acid (IA)-conjugated PDMS (hASC-IA-PDMS) surface is examined to determine its biocompatibility for reducing capsular contracture on the PDMS surface. In vitro cell cytotoxicity evaluation showed that hASCs on IA-PDMS exhibit higher cell viability than hASCs on PDMS. A lower release of proinflammatory cytokines is observed in hASC-PDMS and hASC-IA-PDMS compared to the cells on plate. Multiple factors, including in vivo mRNA expression levels of cytokines related to fibrosis; number of inflammatory cells; number of macrophages and myofibroblasts; capsule thickness; and collagen density following implantation in rats for 60 days, indicate that incorporated coating hASCs on PDMSs most effectively reduces capsular contracture. This study demonstrates the potential of hASCs coating for the modification of PDMS surfaces in enhancing surface biocompatibility for reducing capsular contracture of PDMS-based medical devices.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem or stromal cells (ASCs) possess promising potential in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine due to their secretory activity, their multilineage differentiation potential, their easy harvest, and their rich yield compared to other stem cell sources. After the first identification of ASCs in humans in 2001, the knowledge of their cell biology and cell characteristics have advanced, and respective therapeutic options were determined. Nowadays, ASC-based therapies are on the verge of translation into clinical practice. However, conflicting evidence emerged in recent years about the safety profile of ASC applications as they may induce tumor progression and invasion. Numerous in-vitro and in-vivo studies demonstrate a potential pro-oncogenic effect of ASCs on various cancer entities. This raises questions about the safety profile of ASCs and their broad handling and administration. However, these findings spark controversy as in clinical studies ASC application did not elevate tumor incidence rates, and other experimental studies reported an inhibitory effect of ASCs on different cancer cell types. This comprehensive review aims at providing up-to-date information about ASCs and cancer cell interactions, and their potential carcinogenesis and tumor tropism. The extracellular signaling activity of ASCs, the interaction of ASCs with the tumor microenvironment, and 3 major organ systems (the breast, the skin, and genitourinary system) will be presented with regard to cancer formation and progression.

Simultaneous Treatment of Photobiomodulation and Demineralized Bone Matrix With Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Improve Bone Healing in an osteoporotic bone defect. J Lasers Med Sci 2021; 12:e41.

Abstract
Introduction: The ability of simultaneous treatment of critical-sized femoral defects (CSFDs) with photobiomodulation (PBM) and demineralized bone matrix (DBM) with or without seeded adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) to induce bone reconstruction in ovariectomized induced osteoporotic (OVX) rats was investigated. Methods: The OVX rats with CSFD were arbitrarily separated into 6 groups: control, scaffold (S, DBM), S + PBM, S + alendronate (ALN), S + ASCs, and S + PBM + ASCs. Each group was assessed by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and histological examinations. Results: In the fourth week, CBCT and histological analyses revealed that the largest volume of new bone formed in the S + PBM and S + PBM + ASC groups. The S + PBM treatment relative to the S and S + ALN treatments remarkably reduced the CSFD (Mann-Whitney test, P = 0.009 and P = 0.01). Furthermore, S + PBM + ASCs treatment compared to the S and S + ALN treatments significantly decreased CSFD (Mann Whitney test, P = 0.01). In the eighth week, CBCT analysis showed that extremely enhanced bone regeneration occurred in the CSFD of the S + PBM group. Moreover, the CSFD in the S + PBM group was substantially smaller than S, S + ALN and S + ASCs groups (Mann Whitney test, P = 0.01, P = 0.02 and P = 0.009). Histological observations showed more new bone formation in the treated CSFD of S + PBM + ASCs and S + PBM groups. Conclusion: The PBM plus DBM with or without ASCs significantly enhanced bone healing in the CSFD in OVX rats compared to control, DBM alone, and ALN plus DBM groups. The PBM plus DBM with or without ASCs significantly decreased the CSFD area compared to either the solo DBM or ALN plus DBM treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although various reconstruction techniques are available for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, a long recovery time is required before patients return to sports activities, as the reconstructed ACL requires time to regain strength. To date, several studies have reported use of mesenchymal stem cells in orthopaedic surgery; however, no studies have used adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) sheets in ACL reconstruction (ACLR). HYPOTHESIS ADSC sheet transplantation can improve biomechanical strength of the autograft used in ACLR. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS A total of 68 healthy Japanese white rabbits underwent unilateral ACLR with a semitendinosus tendon autograft after random enrollment into a control group (no sheet; n = 34) and a sheet group (ADSC sheet; n = 34). At 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 weeks after surgery, rabbits in each group were sacrificed to evaluate tendon-bone healing using histological staining, micro-computed tomography, and biomechanical testing. At 24 weeks, scanning transmission electron microscopy of the graft midsubstance was performed. RESULTS The ultimate failure load for the control and sheet groups, respectively, was as follows: 17.2 ± 5.5 versus 37.3 ± 10.3 (P = .01) at 2 weeks, 28.6 ± 1.9 versus 47.4 ± 10.4 (P = .003) at 4 weeks, 53.0 ± 14.3 versus 48.1 ± 9.3 (P = .59) at 8 weeks, 66.2 ± 9.3 versus 95.2 ± 43.1 (P = .24) at 16 weeks, and 66.7 ± 27.3 versus 85.3 ± 29.5 (P = .39) at 24 weeks. The histological score was also significantly higher in the sheet group compared with the control group at early stages up to 8 weeks. On micro-computed tomography, relative to the control group, the bone tunnel area was significantly narrower in the sheet group at 4 weeks, and the bone volume/tissue volume of the tendon-bone interface was significantly greater at 24 weeks. Scanning transmission electron microscopy at 24 weeks indicated that the mean collagen fiber diameter in the midsubstance was significantly greater, as was the occupation ratio of collagen fibers per field of view, in the sheet group. CONCLUSION ADSC sheets improved biomechanical strength, prevented bone tunnel enlargement, and promoted tendon-bone interface healing and graft midsubstance healing in an in vivo rabbit model. CLINICAL RELEVANCE ADSC sheets may be useful for early tendon-bone healing and graft maturation in ACLR.

Abstract
Introduction The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of gelatin microspheres incorporating growth factors on the therapeutic efficacy in cell transplantation. The strength of this study is to combine gelatin hydrogel microspheres incorporating basic fibroblast growth factor and platelet growth factor mixture (GM/GF) with bioabsorbable injectable hydrogels (iGel) for transplantation of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). Methods The rats ASCs suspended in various solutions were transplanted in masseter muscle. Rats were euthanized 2, 7, 14 days after injection for measurement of the number of ASCs retention in the muscle and morphological evaluation of muscle fibers and the inflammation of the injected tissue by histologic and immunofluorescent stain. Results Following the injection into the skeletal muscle, the GM/GF allowed the growth factors to release at the injection site over one week. When ASCs were transplanted into skeletal muscle using iGel incorporating GM/GF (iGel+GM/GF), the number of cells grafted was significantly high compared with other control groups. Moreover, for the groups to which GM/GF was added, the cells transplanted survived, and the Myo-D expression of a myoblast marker was observed at the region of cells transplanted. Conclusions The growth factors released for a long time likely enhance the proliferative and differentiative capacity of cells. The simple combination with iGel and GM/GF allowed ASCs to enhance their survival at the injected site and consequently achieve improved therapeutic efficacy in cell transplantation. The rats adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) suspended in various solutions were transplanted in masseter muscle. The number of cells transplanted using this study's technology was significantly high compared with other control groups. For the groups with growth factors, the Myo-D (myoblast marker) expression was observed at the region of cells transplanted.

METTL3-Mediated lncRNA m 6A Modification in the Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Induced by NEL-Like 1 Protein. Stem Cell Rev Rep 2021; 17:2276-2290. [PMID: 34505967 DOI: 10.1007/s12015-021-10245-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanism of methyltransferase3 (METTL3) -mediated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification in the osteogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) induced by NEL-like 1 protein (NELL-1). MATERIALS AND METHODS Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq) and high- throughput sequencing for RNA (RNA-seq) were performed on hASCs. Osteogenic ability was detected by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, Alizarin Red S(ARS) staining, ALP quantification and Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis (qRT-PCR). Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis predicted the osteogenesis-related pathways enriched for the lncRNAs and identified the target lncRNAs. After overexpression and knockdown of METTL3, methylated RNA immunoprecipitation-qPCR (MeRIP-qPCR) and qRT-PCR were used to detect the levels of m6A modification and the expression of the target lncRNA, and the binding of both was confirmed by RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay. The effects of lncRNA and METTL3 on phosphorylation of the key proteins of the pathway were detected by western blot analysis. RESULTS In vitro experiments showed that METTL3 can promote osteogenic differentiation and that its expression level is upregulated. KEGG pathway analysis predicted that lncRNAs with differentially upregulated methylated peaks were enriched mostly in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, in which Serine/threonine protein kinase 3 (STK3) was the predicted target gene of the lncRNA RP11-44 N12.5. The m6A modification and expression of RP11-44 N12.5 were both regulated by METTL3. Subsequently, lncRNA RP11-44 N12.5 and METTL3 were found to regulate the phosphorylation levels of three key proteins in the MAPK signaling pathway, ERK, JNK and p38. CONCLUSIONS This study shows, for the first time, that METTL3 can activate the MAPK signaling pathway by regulating the m6A modification and expression of a lncRNA, thereby enhancing the osteogenic differentiation of hASCs.

Abstract
Autologous cancellous bone (ACB) grafting is the "gold standard" treatment for delayed bone union. However, small animal models for such grafts are lacking. Here, we developed an ACB graft rat model. Anatomical information regarding the iliac structure was recorded from five rat cadavers (10 ilia). Additionally, 5 and 25 rats were used as controls and ACB graft models, respectively. A defect was created in rat femurs and filled with ACB. Post-graft neo-osteogenic potential was assessed by radiographic evaluation and histological analysis. Iliac bone harvesting yielded the maximum amount of cancellous bone with minimal invasiveness, considering the position of parailiac nerves and vessels. The mean volume of cancellous bone per rat separated from the cortical bone was 73.8 ± 5.5 mm3. Bone union was evident in all ACB graft groups at 8 weeks, and new bone volume significantly increased every 2 weeks (P < 0.001). Histological analysis demonstrated the ability of ACB grafts to act as a scaffold and promote bone union in the defect. In conclusion, we established a stable rat model of ACB grafts by harvesting the iliac bone. This model can aid in investigating ACB grafts and development of novel therapies for bone injury.

Abstract
The process of fracture healing varies depending upon internal and external factors, such as the fracture site, mode of injury, and mechanical environment. This review focuses on site-specific fracture healing, particularly diaphyseal and metaphyseal healing in mouse long bones. Diaphyseal fractures heal by forming the periosteal and medullary callus, whereas metaphyseal fractures heal by forming the medullary callus. Bone healing in ovariectomized mice is accompanied by a decrease in the medullary callus formation both in the diaphysis and metaphysis. Administration of estrogen after fracture significantly recovers the decrease in diaphyseal healing but fails to recover the metaphyseal healing. Thus, the two bones show different osteogenic potentials after fracture in ovariectomized mice. This difference may be attributed to the heterogeneity of the skeletal stem cells (SSCs)/osteoblast progenitors of the two bones. The Hox genes that specify the patterning of the mammalian skeleton during embryogenesis are upregulated during the diaphyseal healing. Hox genes positively regulate the differentiation of osteoblasts from SSCs in vitro. During bone grafting, the SSCs in the donor’s bone express Hox with adaptability in the heterologous bone. These novel functions of the Hox genes are discussed herein with reference to the site-specificity of fracture healing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Large bone defects are a common, debilitating clinical condition that have substantial global health and economic burden. Bone tissue engineering technology has become one of the most promising approaches for regenerating defective bones. In this study, we fabricated a naringin-inlaid composite silk fibroin/hydroxyapatite (NG/SF/HAp) scaffold to repair bone defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS The salt-leaching technology was used to fabricate the NG/SF/HAp scaffold. The cytocompatibility of the NG/SF/HAp scaffold was assessed using scanning electron microscopy, live/dead cell staining and phalloidin staining. The osteogenic and angiogenic properties were assessed in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS The porous NG/SF/HAp scaffold had a well-designed biomimetic porous structure with osteoinductive and angiogenic activities. A gene microarray identified 854 differentially expressed genes between human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) cultured on SF-nHAp scaffolds and cells cultured on NG/SF/HAp scaffolds. The underlying osteoblastic mechanism was investigated using hUCMSCs in vitro. Naringin facilitated hUCMSC ingrowth into the SF/HAp scaffold and promoted osteogenic differentiation. The osteogenic and angiogenic capabilities of cells cultured in the NG/SF/HAp scaffold were superior to those of cells cultured in the SF/HAp scaffold. CONCLUSIONS The data indicate the potential of the SF/HAp composite scaffold incorporating naringin for bone regeneration.

Epidural fat mesenchymal stem cells: Important microenvironmental regulators in health, disease, and regeneration: Do EF-MSCs play a role in dural homeostasis/maintenance? Bioessays 2020; 43:e2000215. [PMID: 33191529 DOI: 10.1002/bies.202000215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2020] [Revised: 10/01/2020] [Accepted: 10/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are present in fat tissues throughout the body, yet little is known regarding their biological role within epidural fat. We hypothesize that debridement of epidural fat and/or subsequent loss of MSCs within this tissue, disrupts homeostasis in the vertebral environment resulting in increased inflammation, fibrosis, and decreased neovascularization leading to poorer functional outcomes post-injury/operatively. Clinically, epidural fat is commonly considered a space-filling tissue with limited functionality and therefore typically discarded during surgery. However, the presence of MSCs within epidural fat suggests that itis more biologically active than historically believed and may contribute to the regulation of homeostasis and regeneration in the dural environment. While the current literature supports our hypothesis, it will require additional experimentation to determine if epidural fat is an endogenous driver of repair and regeneration and if so, this tissue should be minimally perturbed from its original location in the spinal canal.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study investigated meniscal regeneration-promoting effects of adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) sheets in a rabbit meniscal defect models. METHODS ADSCs were extracted from the interscapular fat pad adipose tissue of 42 mature female Japanese white rabbits. Once cells reached confluence at the third passage, the culture medium was supplemented with ascorbic acid. Within a week, the cells in culture formed removable sheets, which were used as ADSC sheets. Cell death (CD) sheets were created by killing ADSCs by freezing to investigate the need for viable ADSCs in ADSC sheets. The anterior half of the medial meniscus from the anterior root to the posterior edge of the medial collateral ligament was removed from both limbs. An autologous ADSC or CD sheet was transplanted to one knee (ADSC sheet or CD sheet group). The contralateral limb was closed without transplantation following meniscal removal (control group). Rabbits were euthanized 4 and 12 weeks after transplantation to harvest the entire medial menisci. The meniscal tissue area, transverse diameter on the inside of the medial collateral ligament, and histologic score were compared between the 3 groups. RESULTS The area and transverse diameter of regenerated tissues were larger in the ADSC sheet group than in the control group at 4 and 12 weeks. Further, the histologic score in the ADSC sheet group (8) was significantly greater than that in the control group (4.5) at 4 weeks (P = .02) and greater than that in the CD sheet group (9) (ADSC = 12.5, P = .009) and control group (6) (ADSC = 12.5, P = .0003) at 12 weeks. CONCLUSIONS Transplantation of the ADSC sheet into the meniscal defect increased the volume and improved the histologic score of the regenerated meniscal tissue. ADSC sheets may have meniscal regeneration-promoting effects in a rabbit model with meniscal defects. CLINICAL RELEVANCE ADSC sheets do not require a scaffold for implantation in the rabbit model, and this evidence suggests that some tissue regeneration occurs at the site of a surgically created meniscal defect.

Abstract
Reconstruction of bone defects, especially the critical-sized defects, with mechanical integrity to the skeleton is important for a patient's rehabilitation, however, it still remains challenge. Utilizing biomaterials of human origin bone tissue for therapeutic purposes has provided a facilitated approach that closely mimics the critical aspects of natural bone tissue with regard to its properties. However, not only efficacious and safe but also cost-effective and convenient are important for regenerative biomaterials to achieve clinical translation and commercial success. Advances in our understanding of regenerative biomaterials and their roles in new bone formation potentially opened a new frontier in the fast-growing field of regenerative medicine. Taking inspiration from the role and multicomponent construction of native extracellular matrix (ECM) for cell accommodation, the ECM-mimicking biomaterials and the naturally decellularized ECM scaffolds were used to create new tissues for bone restoration. On the other hand, with the going deep in understanding of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), they have shown great promise to jumpstart and facilitate bone healing even in diseased microenvironments with pharmacology-based endogenous MSCs rescue/mobilization, systemic/local infusion of MSCs for cytotherapy, biomaterials-based approaches, cell-sheets/-aggregates technology and usage of subcellular vesicles of MSCs to achieve scaffolds-free or cell-free delivery system, all of them have been shown can improve MSCs-mediated regeneration in preclinical studies and several clinical trials. Here, following an overview discussed autogenous/allogenic and ECM-based bone biomaterials for reconstructive surgery and applications of MSCs-mediated bone healing and tissue engineering to further offer principles and effective strategies to optimize MSCs-based bone regeneration. Focusing on MSCs based bone regeneration. Discussed cytotherapy, cell-free therapies and cell-aggregates technology in detail. Stating the approaches of MSCs in diseased microenvironments.

Abstract
Critical size bone defects are regularly treated by auto- and allograft transplantation. However, such treatments require to harvest bone from patient donor sites, with often limited tissue availability or risk of donor site morbidity. Not requiring bone donation, three-dimensionally (3D) printed implants and biomaterial-based tissue engineering (TE) strategies promise to be the next generation therapies for bone regeneration. We present here polylactic acid (PLA)-bioactive glass (BG) composite scaffolds manufactured by fused deposition modeling (FDM), involving the fabrication of PLA-BG composite filaments which are used to 3D print controlled open-porous and osteoinductive scaffolds. We demonstrated the printability of PLA-BG filaments as well as the bioactivity and cytocompatibility of PLA-BG scaffolds using pre-osteoblast MC3T3E1 cells. Gene expression analyses indicated the beneficial impact of BG inclusions in FDM scaffolds regarding osteoinduction, as BG inclusions lead to increased osteogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells in comparison to pristine PLA. Our findings confirm that FDM is a convenient additive manufacturing technology to develop PLA-BG composite scaffolds suitable for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Previous studies indicate that the administration of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) through the venous route improves insulin resistance partly through a reduction in the proinflammatory cytokines in diabetic animals. However, the effects of ADSC sheet transplantation for the treatment of diabetes and obesity still remained unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of ADSC sheet transplantation into the subcutaneous sites on the diabetic state of mice fed high-fat and high-sucrose diet (HF/HSD). ADSCs were isolated and propagated from subcutaneous adipose tissues of non-diabetic intact mice. We used the thermoresponsive designated cell culture dishes to fabricate ADSC cell sheets. ADSC sheet transplantation into the subcutaneous sites significantly improved glucose intolerance induced by HF/HSD in mice. ADSC-conditioned medium (CM) augmented the phosphorylation of Akt with or without insulin in mouse C2C12 myotubes and mouse 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Plasma adiponectin and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were significantly increased and decreased by ADSC sheet transplantation in mice with or without HF/HSD, respectively. Moreover, ADSC sheet enhanced adiponectin expression in the subcutaneous adipose tissues in HF/HSD-fed mice, whereas it reduced TNF-α expression in the visceral adipose tissues. ADSC-CM enhanced and reduced the protein levels of adiponectin and TNF-α in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, respectively. In conclusion, we first revealed that ADSC sheet transplantation into the subcutaneous sites improves glucose intolerance in mice fed with HF/HSD. Changes of adiponectin and TNF-α production from the host adipose tissues might be involved in the effects of ADSC sheet on glucose metabolism in mice. ADSC sheet transplantation therapy may be a novel clinical application for diabetes.
