Abstract
Bone tissue defects present a major challenge in orthopedic surgery. Bone tissue engineering using multiple versatile bioactive materials is a potential strategy for bone-defect repair and regeneration. Due to their unique physicochemical and mechanical properties, biofunctional materials can enhance cellular adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation, thereby supporting and stimulating the formation of new bone tissue. 3D bioprinting and physical stimuli-responsive strategies have been employed in various studies on bone regeneration for the fabrication of desired multifunctional biomaterials with integrated bone tissue repair and regeneration properties. In this review, biomaterials applied to bone tissue engineering, emerging 3D bioprinting techniques, and physical stimuli-responsive strategies for the rational manufacturing of novel biomaterials with bone therapeutic and regenerative functions are summarized. Furthermore, the impact of biomaterials on the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells and the potential pathways associated with biomaterial-induced osteogenesis are discussed.

First, the functions of bioelectricity in regulating human electrophysiological activity from cellular to tissue level are introduced. Next, recent advances as well as structure-property relationship of various natural and synthetic piezoelectric biomaterials are provided in detail. In the following part, the applications of piezoelectric biomaterials in tissue engineering, drug delivery, biosensing, energy harvesting, and catalysis are systematically classified and discussed. Finally, the challenges and future prospects of piezoelectric biomaterials are presented. It is believed that this review will provide inspiration for the design and development of innovative piezoelectric biomaterials in the fields of biomedicine and nanotechnology.

Abstract
The high incidence of bone defect-related diseases caused by trauma, infection, and tumor resection has greatly stimulated research in the field of bone regeneration. Generally, bone healing is a long and complicated process wherein manipulating the biological activity of interventional scaffolds to support long-term bone regeneration is significant for treating bone-related diseases. It has been reported that some physical cues can act as growth factor substitutes to promote osteogenesis through continuous activation of endogenous signaling pathways. This review focuses on the latest progress in bone repair by remote actuation and on-demand activation of biomaterials pre-incorporated with physical cues (heat, electricity, and magnetism). As an alternative method to treat bone defects, physical cues show many advantages, including effectiveness, noninvasiveness, and remote manipulation. First, we introduce the impact of different physical cues on bone repair and potential internal regulatory mechanisms. Subsequently, biomaterials that mediate various physical cues in bone repair and their respective characteristics are summarized. Additionally, challenges are discussed, aiming to provide new insights and suggestions for developing intelligent biomaterials to treat bone defects and promote clinical translation.

Abstract
The intricate nature of oral-maxillofacial structure and function, coupled with the dynamic oral bacterial environment, presents formidable obstacles in addressing the repair and regeneration of oral-maxillofacial bone defects. Numerous characteristics should be noticed in oral-maxillofacial bone repair, such as irregular morphology of bone defects, homeostasis between hosts and microorganisms in the oral cavity and complex periodontal structures that facilitate epithelial ingrowth. Therefore, oral-maxillofacial bone repair necessitates restoration materials that adhere to stringent and specific demands. This review starts with exploring these particular requirements by introducing the particular characteristics of oral-maxillofacial bones and then summarizes the classifications of current bone repair materials in respect of composition and structure. Additionally, we discuss the modifications in current bone repair materials including improving mechanical properties, optimizing surface topography and pore structure and adding bioactive components such as elements, compounds, cells and their derivatives. Ultimately, we organize a range of potential optimization strategies and future perspectives for enhancing oral-maxillofacial bone repair materials, including physical environment manipulation, oral microbial homeostasis modulation, osteo-immune regulation, smart stimuli-responsive strategies and multifaceted approach for poly-pathic treatment, in the hope of providing some insights for researchers in this field. In summary, this review analyzes the complex demands of oral-maxillofacial bone repair, especially for periodontal and alveolar bone, concludes multifaceted strategies for corresponding biomaterials and aims to inspire future research in the pursuit of more effective treatment outcomes.

Abstract
The unique ability of piezoelectric materials to generate electricity spontaneously has attracted widespread interest in the medical field. In addition to the ability to convert mechanical stress into electrical energy, piezoelectric materials offer the advantages of high sensitivity, stability, accuracy and low power consumption. Because of these characteristics, they are widely applied in devices such as sensors, controllers and actuators. However, piezoelectric materials also show great potential for the medical manufacturing of artificial organs and for tissue regeneration and repair applications. For example, the use of piezoelectric materials in cochlear implants, cardiac pacemakers and other equipment may help to restore body function. Moreover, recent studies have shown that electrical signals play key roles in promoting tissue regeneration. In this context, the application of electrical signals generated by piezoelectric materials in processes such as bone healing, nerve regeneration and skin repair has become a prospective strategy. By mimicking the natural bioelectrical environment, piezoelectric materials can stimulate cell proliferation, differentiation and connection, thereby accelerating the process of self-repair in the body. However, many challenges remain to be overcome before these concepts can be applied in clinical practice, including material selection, biocompatibility and equipment design. On the basis of the principle of electrical signal regulation, this article reviews the definition, mechanism of action, classification, preparation and current biomedical applications of piezoelectric materials and discusses opportunities and challenges for their future clinical translation.

Abstract
Bone regeneration remains a critical concern across diverse medical disciplines, because it is a complex process that requires a combinatorial approach involving the integration of mechanical, electrical, and biological stimuli to emulate the native cellular microenvironment. In this context, piezoelectric scaffolds have attracted considerable interest owing to their remarkable ability to generate electric fields in response to dynamic forces. Nonetheless, the application of such scaffolds in bone tissue engineering has been limited by the lack of a scaffold that can simultaneously provide both the intricate electromechanical environment and the biocompatibility of the native bone tissue. Here, we present a pioneering biomimetic scaffold that combines the unique properties of piezoelectric and topographical enhancement with the inherent osteogenic abilities of hydroxyapatite (HAp). Notably, the novelty of this work lies in the incorporation of HAp into polyvinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoro ethylene in a freestanding form, leveraging its natural osteogenic potential within a piezoelectric framework. Through comprehensive in vitro and in vivo investigations, we demonstrate the remarkable potential of these scaffolds to accelerate bone regeneration. Moreover, we demonstrate and propose three pivotal mechanisms─(i) electrical, (ii) topographical, and (iii) paracrine─that collectively contribute to the facilitated bone healing process. Our findings present a synergistically derived biomimetic scaffold design with wide-ranging prospects for bone regeneration as well as various regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
CONTEXT BaTiO3 is one of the most important ferroelectric oxides in electronic applications. Also, it has attractive properties for catalysis that could be used for reducing contamination levels, especially carbon monoxide, CO. CO is one of the main gaseous pollutants generally released from the combustion of fossil fuel. In this work, the CO transformation on pristine and Au-modified BaTiO3 perovskite for H2CO obtention is studied. The CO adsorption and hydrogenation on pristine BaTiO3 leads to formaldehyde synthesis as the most stable product through two possible routes. Furthermore, hydrogenation stages are less probable on pristine BaTiO3. On Au-modified BaTiO3 formaldehyde is the principal product too but Au adatom generates H2CO competition with HCOH. After BaTiO3 modification with Au unpaired electrons were generated. These unpaired electrons are related to the adatom reactivity. According to the obtained results, pristine and Au-modified BaTiO3 can adsorb and hydrogenate CO generating formaldehyde as the principal product. BaTiO3 modifications with Au increase the reactivity of the perovskite in the CO hydrogenation reactions. CO hydrogenation process on Au suggests that further hydrogenation stages beyond formaldehyde are possible. METHODS The study was performed through ab initio calculations using the periodic spin-polarized Density Functional Theory (DFT) as implemented in Quantum ESPRESSO. DFT calculations were carried out using the Plane Wave self-consistent field (PWscf). Spin density difference allows us to identify reactive regions related to dangling bonds and unpaired electrons. A plane wave basis set was used to represent the electron states. Vanderbilt pseudopotentials with nonlinear core correction were used to model the ionic cores and valence electrons interaction. Exchange-correlation energies were treated within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) parameterization.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate a rabbit model of mandibular box-shaped defects created through an intraoral approach and determine the minimum size defect that would not spontaneously heal during the rabbit's natural life (or critical-sized defect, CSD). Methods Forty-five 6-month-old rabbits were randomly divided into five defect size groups (nine each). Mandibular box-shaped defects of different sizes (4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 mm) were created in each hemimandible, with the same width and depth (3 and 2 mm, respectively). Four, 8, and 12 weeks post-surgery, three animals per group were euthanized. New bone formation was assessed using micro-computed tomography (MCT) and histomorphometric analyses. Results Box-shaped defects were successfully created in the buccal region between the incisor area and the anterior part of the mental foramen in rabbit mandibles. Twelve weeks post-surgery, MCT analysis showed that the defects in the 4, 5, and 6 mm groups were filled with new bone, while those in the 8 and 10 mm groups remained underfilled. Quantitative analysis revealed that the bone mass recovery percentage in the 8 and 10 mm groups was significantly lower than that in the other groups (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the bone mass recovery percentage between the 8 and 10 mm groups (p > 0.05). Histomorphometric analysis indicated that the area of new bone formation in the 8 and 10 mm groups was significantly lower than that in the remaining groups (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the new bone area between the 8 and 10 mm groups (p > 0.05). Conclusions The dimensions of box-shaped CSD created in the rabbit mandible through an intraoral approach were 8 mm × 3 mm × 2 mm. This model may provide a clinically relevant base for future tissue engineering efforts in the mandible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue engineering and cell therapy have been the focus of investigations on how to treat challenging bone defects. This study aimed to produce and characterize a P(VDF-TrFE)/BaTiO3 scaffold and evaluate the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) combined with this scaffold and photobiomodulation (PBM) on bone repair. METHODS AND RESULTS P(VDF-TrFE)/BaTiO3 was synthesized using an electrospinning technique and presented physical and chemical properties suitable for bone tissue engineering. This scaffold was implanted in rat calvarial defects (unilateral, 5 mm in diameter) and, 2 weeks post-implantation, MSCs were locally injected into these defects (n = 12/group). Photobiomodulation was then applied immediately, and again 48 and 96 h post-injection. The μCT and histological analyses showed an increment in bone formation, which exhibited a positive correlation with the treatments combined with the scaffold, with MSCs and PBM inducing more bone repair, followed by the scaffold combined with PBM, the scaffold combined with MSCs, and finally the scaffold alone (ANOVA, p ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The P(VDF-TrFE)/BaTiO3 scaffold acted synergistically with MSCs and PBM to induce bone repair in rat calvarial defects. These findings emphasize the need to combine a range of techniques to regenerate large bone defects and provide avenues for further investigations on innovative tissue engineering approaches.

Abstract
The maintenance and incremental growth of the alveolar bone at the tooth extraction site, to achieve the required height and width for implant restoration, remains a major clinical challenge. Here, the concept of restoring the electrical microenvironment to improve the effects of alveolar ridge preservation (ARP) was investigated in a mini-pig preclinical model. The endogeneous electrical microenvironment of the dental alveolar socket was recapitulated by fabricating a biomimetic ferroelectric BaTiO3/poly(vinylidene fluoridetrifluoroethylene) (BTO/P(VDF-TrFE)) non-resorbable nanocomposite membrane polarized by corona poling. The polarized nanocomposite membrane exhibited excellent electrical stability. After implantation with bone grafts and covering with the charged membrane in tooth extraction sites for three months, both the vertical and horizontal dimension resorption of the alveolar ridge were significantly prevented, as assessed by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) analyses. Micro-CT analysis showed that the charged membrane induced significant enhancement of newly regenerated bone at the tooth extraction sites. Histological analysis further confirmed that the restoration of the electrical microenvironment significantly promoted buccal alveolar bone regeneration and maturation. In addition, the charged membranes can maintain their structural integrity during the entire implantation period and exhibit positive long-term systemic safety, as assessed by preclinical sub-chronic systemic toxicity. These findings thus provide an innovative strategy for restoring the electrical microenvironment to enhance ARP following dentition defect and edentulism, which could further advance prosthodontics implant technology.

[PMID: 35633875 PMCID: PMC9131252 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2022.05.007] [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: 02/08/2022] [Revised: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) uniquely exhibit high proliferative and neurogenic potential. Charged biomaterials have been demonstrated to promote neural differentiation of stem cells, but the dose-response effect of electrical stimuli from these materials on neural differentiation of SHED remains to be elucidated. Here, by utilizing different annealing temperatures prior to corona poling treatment, BaTiO3/P(VDF-TrFE) ferroelectric nanocomposite membranes with varying charge polarization intensity (d33 ≈ 0, 4, 12 and 19 pC N−1) were fabricated. Enhanced expression of neural markers, increased cell elongation and more prominent neurite outgrowths were observed with increasing surface charge of the nanocomposite membrane indicating a dose-response effect of surface electrical charge on SHED neural differentiation. Further investigations of the underlying molecular mechanisms revealed that intracellular calcium influx, focal adhesion formation, FAK-ERK mechanosensing pathway and neurogenic-related ErbB signaling pathway were implicated in the enhancement of SHED neural differentiation by surface electrical charge. Hence, this study confirms the dose-response effect of biomaterial surface charge on SHED neural differentiation and provides preliminary insights into the molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways involved. Membrane surface charge can be precisely controlled by adjusting annealing temperature and corona poling parameters. Both earlier and later neurogenic differentiation of SHED appear to be dose-dependently enhanced by surface charge. Underlying molecular mechanisms may involve intracellular Ca2+ influx, focal adhesion formation, FAK-ERK and ErbB signaling.

Electrical stimulation of piezoelectric BaTiO3 coated Ti6Al4V scaffolds promotes anti-inflammatory polarization of macrophages and bone repair via MAPK/JNK inhibition and OXPHOS activation. Biomaterials 2023; 293:121990. [PMID: 36586147 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2022.121990] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
Bone regeneration is a highly synchronized process that requires multiple biochemical, bioelectrical, mechanical, and other physiological cues. The restoration and delivery of electrical cues locally through piezoelectric materials have been demonstrated to facilitate osteogenesis in vitro and bone repair in vivo. However, the underlying mechanism by which piezoelectric stimulation promotes osteogenesis and bone repair remains unclear yet, limiting the design and clinical application of piezoelectric materials for bone repair. Herein, a piezoelectric BaTiO3/Ti6Al4V (BT/Ti) scaffold was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis of a uniform BaTiO3 layer on three dimensionally printed Ti6Al4V scaffold. The BT/Ti scaffolds exhibited piezoelectricity and favorable biocompatibility with RAW264.7 macrophages after polarization. In vitro results demonstrated that the piezoelectric effects of the poled BT/Ti scaffolds promoted M2 polarization of macrophages and immunoregulatory osteogenesis of MC-3T3 osteoblasts. In a subcutaneous implantation model, a higher proportion of CD68+ CD206+ M2 macrophages was observed in the tissues around the poled BT/Ti scaffolds under low intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) stimulation. Improvements in macrophage M2 polarization and bone regeneration were further identified in a sheep cervical corpectomy model. RNA sequencing and mechanistic investigation revealed that the piezoelectric BT/Ti (poled) scaffolds inhibited the inflammatory MAPK/JNK signaling cascade and activated oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and ATP synthesis in macrophages. Collectively, our study provides a promising method for regulating the immune microenvironment and enhancing bone regeneration using polarized piezoelectric BT/Ti scaffolds.

Abstract
Purpose Biopiezoelectric materials have good biocompatibility and excellent piezoelectric properties, and they can generate local currents in vivo to restore the physiological electrical microenvironment of the defect and promote bone regeneration. Previous studies of guided bone regeneration membranes have rarely addressed the point of restoring it, so this study prepared a Barium titanate/Polylactic acid (BT/PLA) piezoelectric composite membrane and investigated its bone-formation, with a view to providing an experimental basis for clinical studies of guided bone tissue regeneration membranes. Methods BT/PLA composite membranes with different BT ratio were prepared by solution casting method, and piezoelectric properties were performed after corona polarization treatment. The optimal BT ratio was selected and then subjected to in vitro cytological experiments and in vivo osteogenic studies in rats. The effects on adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of the pre-osteoblastic cell line (MC3T3-E1) were investigated. The effect of composite membranes on bone repair of cranial defects in rats was investigated after 4 and 12 weeks. Results The highest piezoelectric coefficient d33 were obtained when the BT content was 20%, reaching (7.03 ± 0.26) pC/N. The value could still be maintained at (4.47±0.17) pC/N after 12 weeks, meeting the piezoelectric constant range of bone. In vitro, the MC3T3-E1 cells showed better adhesion and proliferative activity in the group of polarized 20%BT. The highest alkaline phosphatase (ALP) content was observed in cells of this group. In vivo, it promoted rapid bone regeneration. At 4 weeks postoperatively, new bone formation was evident at the edges of the defect, with extensive marrow cavity formation; after 12 weeks, the defect was essentially completely closed, with density approximating normal bone tissue and significant mineralization. Conclusion The BT/PLA piezoelectric composite membrane has good osteogenic properties and provides a new idea for guiding the research of membrane materials for bone tissue regeneration.

Influence of P(VDF-TrFE) Membranes with Different Surface Potentials on the Activity and Angiogenic Function of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:5693994.

Abstract
During bone tissue regeneration, neovascularization is critical, and the formation of a blood supply network is crucial for bone growth stimulation and remodeling. Previous studies suggest that bioelectric signals facilitate the process of angiogenesis. Owing to their biomimetic electroactivity, piezoelectric membranes have garnered substantial interest in the field of guided bone regeneration. Nevertheless, the knowledge of their influence due to varying surface potentials on the progression of angiogenesis remains ambiguous. Therefore, we proposed the preparation of an electroactive material, P(VDF-TrFE), and investigated its effects on the activity and angiogenic functions of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The HUVECs were directly cultured on P(VDF-TrFE) membranes with different surface potentials. Subsequently, cell viability, proliferation, migration, tube formation, and expressions of related factors were assessed through appropriate assays. Our results revealed that the negative surface potential groups exerted differential effects on the modulation of angiogenesis in vitro. The P(VDF-TrFE) membranes with negative surface potential exhibited the greatest effect on cellular behaviors, including proliferation, migration, tube formation, and promotion of angiogenesis by releasing key factors such as VEGF-A and CD31. Overall, these results indicated that the surface potential of piezoelectric P(VDF-TrFE) membranes could exert differential effects on angiogenesis in vitro. We present a novel approach for designing bioactive materials for guided bone regeneration.

Abstract
Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) membranes play a vital role in periodontal surgery. Recently a series of composite electrospun membranes have been fabricated to improve the unexpected biodegradation of collagen-based GTR membranes. However, their tissue integrity needs to be studied in depth. In this study, a bi-layered electrospun membrane (BEM) inspired by "prodrug" was fabricated, which contained a dense-layer (BEM-DL) and a potential loose-layer (BEM-LL). The nanofibers of BEM-DL were composed of poly(l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) and tilapia skin collagen (TSC). Whereas the BEM-LL consisted of two types of nanofibers, one was the same as BEM-DL and the other was made from TSC. The morphology, degradation in vitro, cytocompatibility and biocompatibility in rats were investigated with a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) electrospun membrane (PLGA) as the negative control. The pore size of BEM-LL soaked for 7 days became larger than the original sample (164.8 ± 90.9 and 52.5 ± 21.0 μm2 , respectively), which was significantly higher (p < .05) than that of BEM-DL and PLGA. The BEM-LL displayed a larger weight loss rate of 82.3 ± 3.6% than the BEM-DL of 46.0 ± 2.8% at day 7 because of the rapid degradation of TSC fibers. The cytocompatibility test demonstrated that L929 cells were only spread on the surface of the BEM-DL while MC3T3-E1 cells grew into the BEM-LL layer. The subcutaneous implantation test further proved that BEM-DL performed as a cellular barrier, whereas BEM-LL was conducive to cell infiltration as deep as 200 μm with reduced fibrous encapsulation. Herein, the BEM inspired by "prodrug" is a promising GTR membrane with a property of enhanced tissue integration.

Abstract
Biomimetic piezoelectric scaffolds provide a noninvasive method for in vivo cell regulation and tissue regeneration. Herein, considering the gradually varied piezoelectric properties of native cartilage and bone tissues, we fabricated biomimetic electrospun poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibrous mats with gradient piezoelectric properties to induce the integrated osteochondral differentiation of rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Nanofibrous mats are polarized under electric fields with linear variation of strength to generate gradient piezoelectricity, and cell adhesion-derived contraction forces could produce gradient piezoelectric potential on the scaffolds. Our results demonstrated that the piezoelectric potential could positively modulate cell adhesion, intracellular calcium transients, Ca2+ binding proteins, and differentiation-related genes. In addition, the differentiation of MSCs into osteogenic and chondrogenic lineages was integrated on a single scaffold at different areas with relatively high and low piezoelectricity values, respectively. The continuous gradient scaffold exhibited the potential to provide a smooth transition between the cartilage and bone, offering new insights to probe the regeneration mechanisms of the osteochondral tissue in a single scaffold and inspiring a future efficient and rational design of piezoelectric smart biomaterials for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Bone defects combined with tumors, infections, or other bone diseases are challenging in clinical practice. Autologous and allogeneic grafts are two main traditional remedies, but they can cause a series of complications. To address this problem, researchers have constructed various implantable biomaterials. However, the original pathological microenvironment of bone defects, such as residual tumors, severe infection, or other bone diseases, could further affect bone regeneration. Thus, the rational design of versatile biomaterials with integrated bone therapy and regeneration functions is in great demand. Many strategies have been applied to fabricate smart stimuli-responsive materials for bone therapy and regeneration, with stimuli related to external physical triggers or endogenous disease microenvironments or involving multiple integrated strategies. Typical external physical triggers include light irradiation, electric and magnetic fields, ultrasound, and mechanical stimuli. These stimuli can transform the internal atomic packing arrangements of materials and affect cell fate, thus enhancing bone tissue therapy and regeneration. In addition to the external stimuli-responsive strategy, some specific pathological microenvironments, such as excess reactive oxygen species and mild acidity in tumors, specific pH reduction and enzymes secreted by bacteria in severe infection, and electronegative potential in bone defect sites, could be used as biochemical triggers to activate bone disease therapy and bone regeneration. Herein, we summarize and discuss the rational construction of versatile biomaterials with bone therapeutic and regenerative functions. The specific mechanisms, clinical applications, and existing limitations of the newly designed biomaterials are also clarified.

Abstract
Magnetoelectric (ME) effect experimentally discovered about 60 years ago remains one of the promising research fields with the main applications in microelectronics and sensors. However, its applications to biology and medicine are still in their infancy. For the diagnosis and treatment of diseases at the intracellular level, it is necessary to develop a maximally non-invasive way of local stimulation of individual neurons, navigation, and distribution of biomolecules in damaged cells with relatively high efficiency and adequate spatial and temporal resolution. Recently developed ME materials (composites), which combine elastically coupled piezoelectric (PE) and magnetostrictive (MS) phases, have been shown to yield very strong ME effects even at room temperature. This makes them a promising toolbox for solving many problems of modern medicine. The main ME materials, processing technologies, as well as most prospective biomedical applications will be overviewed, and modern trends in using ME materials for future therapies, wireless power transfer, and optogenetics will be considered.

Abstract
Over the past decades, electronics have become central to many aspects of biomedicine and wearable device technologies as a promising personalized healthcare platform. Lead-free piezoelectric materials for converting mechanical into electrical energy through piezoelectric transduction are of significant value in a diverse range of technological applications. Organic piezoelectric biomaterials have attracted widespread attention as the functional materials in the biomedical devices due to their advantages of excellent biocompatibility. They include synthetic and biological polymers. Many biopolymers have been discovered to possess piezoelectricity in an appreciable amount, however their investigation is still preliminary. Due to their piezoelectric properties, better known synthetic fluorinated polymers have been intensively investigated and applied in biomedical applications including controlled drug delivery systems, tissue engineering, microfluidic and artificial muscle actuators, among others. Piezoelectric polymers, especially poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and its copolymers are increasingly receiving interest as smart biomaterials due to their ability to convert physiological movements to electrical signals when in a controllable and reproducible manner. Despite possessing the greatest piezoelectric coefficients among all piezoelectric polymers, it is often desirable to increase the electrical outputs. The most promising routes toward significant improvements in the piezoelectric response and energy-harvesting performance of such materials is loading them with various inorganic nanofillers and/or applying some modification during the fabrication process. This paper offers a comprehensive review of the principles, properties, and applications of organic piezoelectric biomaterials (polymers and polymer/ceramic composites) with special attention on PVDF-based polymers and their composites in sensors, drug delivery and tissue engineering. Subsequently focuses on the most common fabrication routes to produce piezoelectric scaffolds, tissue and sensors which is electrospinning process. Promising upcoming strategies and new piezoelectric materials and fabrication techniques for these applications are presented to enable a future integration among these applications.

Abstract
Ferroelectric biomaterials have been widely investigated and demonstrated to enhance osteogenesis by simulating the inherent electrical properties of bone tissues. Nevertheless, the underlying biological processes are still not wellunderstood. Hence, this study investigated the underlying biological processes by which bone piezoelectricity-mimicking barium titanate/poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) nanocomposite membranes (BTO nanocomposite membranes) promote osteogenesis of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BMSCs). Ourresults revealed that the piezoelectric coefficient (d33) of nanocomposite membranes aftercontrolled corona poling was similar to that of native bone, and exhibited highly-stable piezoelectrical properties and concentrated surface electrical potential. These nanocomposite membranes significantly enhanced the adhesion and spreading of BMSCs, which was manifested as increased number and area of mature focal adhesions. Furthermore, the nanocomposite membranes significantly promoted the expression of integrin receptors genes (α1, α5 andβ3), which in turn enhanced osteogenesis of BMSCs, as manifested by upregulated Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) and Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 (BMP2) expression levels. Further investigations found that the Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK)-Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase1/2 (ERK 1/2) signaling axis may be involved in the biological process of polarized nanocomposite membrane-induced osteogenesis. This study thus provides useful insights for betterunderstanding of the biological processes by which piezoelectric or ferroelectric biomaterials promote osteogenesis.

Abstract
Barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles (BT NPs) have shown exceptional characteristics such as high dielectric constant and suitable ferro-, piezo-, and pyro-electric properties. Thus, BT NPs have shown potential to be applied in various fields including electro-optical devices and biomedicine. However, very limited knowledge is available on the interaction of BT NPs with human cells. This work was planned to study the interaction of BT NPs with human lung carcinoma (A549) cells. Results showed that BT NPs decreased cell viability in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Depletion of mitochondrial membrane potential and induction of caspase-3 and -9 enzyme activity were also observed following BT NP exposure. BT NPs further induced oxidative stress indicated by induction of pro-oxidants (reactive oxygen species and hydrogen peroxide) and reduction of antioxidants (glutathione and several antioxidant enzymes). Moreover, BT NP-induced cytotoxicity and oxidative stress were effectively abrogated by N-acetyl-cysteine (an ROS scavenger), suggesting that BT NP-induced cytotoxicity was mediated through oxidative stress. Intriguingly, the underlying mechanism of cytotoxicity of BT NPs was similar to the mode of action of ZnO NPs. At the end, we found that BT NPs did not affect the non-cancerous human lung fibroblasts (IMR-90). Altogether, BT NPs selectively induced cytotoxicity in A549 cells via oxidative stress. This work warrants further research on selective cytotoxicity mechanisms of BT NPs in different types of cancer cells and their normal counterparts.

Abstract
Bone defect repair at load-bearing sites is a challenging clinical problem for orthopedists. Defect reconstruction with implants is the most common treatment; however, it requires the implant to have good mechanical properties and the capacity to promote bone formation. In recent years, the piezoelectric effect, in which electrical activity can be generated due to mechanical deformation, of native bone, which promotes bone formation, has been increasingly valued. Therefore, implants with piezoelectric effects have also attracted great attention from orthopedists. In this study, we developed a bioactive composite scaffold consisting of BaTiO3, a piezoelectric ceramic material, coated on porous Ti6Al4V. This composite scaffold showed not only appropriate mechanical properties, sufficient bone and blood vessel ingrowth space, and a suitable material surface topography but also a reconstructed electromagnetic microenvironment. The osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties of the scaffold were reflected by the proliferation, migration, and osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. The ability of the scaffold to support vascularization was reflected by the proliferation and migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and their secretion of VEGF and PDGF-BB. A well-established sheep spinal fusion model was used to evaluate bony fusion in vivo. Sheep underwent implantation with different scaffolds, and X-ray, micro-computed tomography, van Gieson staining, and elemental energy-dispersive spectroscopy were used to analyze bone formation. Isolated cervical angiography and visualization analysis were used to assess angiogenesis at 4 and 8 months after transplantation. The results of cellular and animal studies showed that the piezoelectric effect could significantly reinforce osteogenesis and angiogenesis. Furthermore, we also discuss the molecular mechanism by which the piezoelectric effect promotes osteogenic differentiation and vascularization. In summary, Ti6Al4V scaffold coated with BaTiO3 is a promising composite biomaterial for repairing bone defects, especially at load-bearing sites, that may have great clinical translation potential.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aims to assess the angiogenic and osteogenic capacity in rabbit sinus model grafted with Deproteinized bovine bone mineral (DBBM) particles soaked in injectable Platelet rich fibrin (iPRF), both of which interacted to form an integrated block. MATERIALS AND METHODS Among sixteen rabbits, bilateral maxillary sinuses were randomly grafted with either DBBM containing iPRF (iPRF+DBBM group), or DBBM alone (DBBM group). After a 4 and 8-week healing period, animals were sacrificed for micro-CT, histological and immunofluorescence analyses, respectively. RESULTS New bone formation in the iPRF+DBBM group was largely observed around the basal bone wall and Schneiderian membrane (SM), which further substitute the bone grafting material in a bidirectional remodeling pattern. Although the ultimate amount of bone volume was of no significant difference between two groups in radiographical image, the expression of ALP and TRAP staining were significantly higher in the experimental group with numerous vascular formations at 4th week. Moreover, the substitution rate of DBBM by new bone formation after 8 weeks was significantly higher in the experimental group. As a result, mature collagen fibers were detected in the larger amount of area in iPRF+DBBM group even at an early stage. CONCLUSION iPRF+DBBM accelerated vascular formation, bone remodeling and substitution of bone graft materials at the early healing period, even though it failed to increase the bone volume in a long-term period. This integrated grafting biomaterial will have great potential in the application of sinus augmentation, which provides a favorable environment for early implant placement.

Abstract
The penultimate effectors of the Hippo signaling pathways YAP and TAZ, are transcriptional co-activator proteins that play key roles in many diverse biological processes, ranging from cell proliferation, tumorigenesis, mechanosensing and cell lineage fate determination, to wound healing and regeneration. In this review, we discuss the regulatory mechanisms by which YAP/TAZ control stem/progenitor cell differentiation into the various major lineages that are of interest to tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. Of particular interest is the key role of YAP/TAZ in maintaining the delicate balance between quiescence, self-renewal, proliferation and differentiation of endogenous adult stem cells within various tissues/organs during early development, normal homeostasis and regeneration/healing. Finally, we will consider how increasing knowledge of YAP/TAZ signaling might influence the trajectory of future progress in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Porous titanium scaffolds can provide sufficient mechanical support and bone growth space for large segmental bone defect repair. However, they fail to restore the physiological environment of bone tissue. Barium titanate (BaTiO3) is considered a smart material that can produce an electric field in response to dynamic force. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound stimulation (LIPUS), as a kind of micromechanical wave, can not only promote bone repair but also induce BaTiO3 to generate an electric field. In our studies, BaTiO3 was coated on porous Ti6Al4V and LIPUS was externally applied to observe the influence of the piezoelectric effect on the repair of large bone defects in vitro and in vivo. The results show that the piezoelectric effect can effectively promote the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) in vitro as well as bone formation and growth into implants in vivo. This study provides an optional alternative to the conventional porous Ti6Al4V scaffold with enhanced osteogenesis and osseointegration for the repair of large bone defects.

Theranostics 2020; 10:741-756. [PMID: 31903148 PMCID: PMC6929981 DOI: 10.7150/thno.39502] [Citation(s) in RCA: 45] [Impact Index Per Article: 11.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2019] [Accepted: 10/11/2019] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Bone defects affect millions of people worldwide each year, leading to severe disabilities. Biomimetic scaffolds mediated tissue regeneration represents a promising alternative for bone repair. However, the major problem associated with most currently clinical available artificial bone substitutes (scaffolds) is that they mainly possess filling function but lack of osteo-induction abilities. Therefore, development of biomaterials with osteo-induction property for effective bone regeneration is highly desired. Methods: We report the design and fabrication of a photo-crosslinked sericin methacryloyl (SerMA)/ graphene oxide (GO) hydrogel (SMH/GO) as a biomimetic scaffold for the functional repair of the bone. The mechanical strength, degradation and biocompatibility behavior of SMH/GO hydrogel were measured in vitro. The effect of SMH/GO hydrogel on BMSCs proliferation, migration, osteogenesis differentiation was assessed. After that, SMH/GO-2 was used as an artificial bone substitute for bone regeneration after calvarial defects and effect on bone repair was evaluated by histological, X-Ray and microCT analysis. Furthermore, the potential mechanism of SMH/GO hydrogel regulating BMSCs migration and differentiation was investigated by RNA sequencing. Results: This scaffold has good biocompatibility, cell adhesive property, proliferation- and migration-promoting effects, and osteogenic induction property. After being implanted in a rat calvarial defect model, this SMH/GO scaffold effectively promotes new bone regeneration and achieves structural and functional repair within 12 weeks by inducing autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) differentiation. By utilizing cell-biological assays and RNA sequencing, we reveal its possible regeneration mechanisms: the SMH/GO hydrogel regulates BMSCs migration and osteo-differentiation via activating MAPK, TNF, and chemokine signaling for bone regeneration. Conclusion: Aiming to meet clinical demands and overcome current limitations of existing artificial bones, we have developed a new type of sericin/ graphene oxide composite scaffold and provided histological, functional, and molecular evidence demonstrating that it is capable of effectively repairing defective bones by inducing autologous BMSCs directional migration and osteogenic differentiation.
