Abstract
For understanding the structural characteristics and the proteome of Perna shell, the microstructure, polymorph, and protein composition of the adult Perna viridis shell were investigated. The P. viridis shell have two distinct mineral layers, myostracum and nacre, with the same calcium carbonate polymorph of aragonite, determined by scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and x-ray crystalline diffraction. Using Illumina sequencing, the mantle transcriptome of P. viridis was investigated and a total of 69,859 unigenes was generated. Using a combined proteomic/transcriptomic approach, a total of 378 shell proteins from P. viridis shell were identified, in which, 132 shell proteins identified with more than two matched unique peptides. Of the 132 shell proteins, 69 are exclusive to the nacre, 12 to the myostracum, and 51 are shared by both. The Myosin-tail domain containing proteins, Filament-like proteins, and Chitin-binding domain containing proteins represent the most abundant molecules. In addition, the shell matrix proteins (SMPs) containing biomineralization-related domains, such as Kunitz, A2M, WAP, EF-hand, PDZ, VWA, Collagen domain, and low complexity regions with abundant certain amino acids, were also identified from P. viridis shell. Collagenase and chitinase degradation can significantly change the morphology of the shell, indicating the important roles of collagen and chitin in the shell formation and the muscle-shell attachment. Our results present for the first time the proteome of P. viridis shell and increase the knowledge of SMPs in this genus.

Abstract
In this study, we clone and characterize a novel matrix protein, hic31, from the mantle of Hyriopsis cumingii. The amino acid composition of hic31 consists of a high proportion of Glycine residues (26.67%). Tissue expression detection by RT-PCR indicates that hic31 is expressed specifically at the mantle edge. In situ hybridization results reveals strong signals from the dorsal epithelial cells of the outer fold at the mantle edge, and weak signals from inner epithelial cells of the same fold, indicating that hic31 is a prismatic-layer matrix protein. Although BLASTP results identify no shared homology with other shell-matrix proteins or any other known proteins, the hic31 tertiary structure is similar to that of collagen I, alpha 1 and alpha 2. It has been well proved that collagen forms the basic organic frameworks in way of collagen fibrils and minerals present within or outside of these fibrils. Therefore, hic31 might be a framework-matrix protein involved in the prismatic-layer biomineralization. Besides, the gene expression of hic31 increase in the early stages of pearl sac development, indicating that hic31 may play important roles in biomineralization of the pearl prismatic layer.

The effect of an octacalcium phosphate co-precipitated gelatin composite on the repair of critical-sized rat calvarial defects. Acta Biomater 2012; 8:1190-200.

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the extent to which an octacalcium phosphate/gelatin (OCP/Gel) composite can repair rat calvarial critical-sized defects (CSD). OCP crystals were grown with various concentrations of gelatin molecules and the OCP/Gel composites were characterized by chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and mercury intrusion porosimetry. The OCP/Gel composite disks received vacuum dehydrothermal treatment, were implanted in Wistar rat calvarial CSD for 4, 8 and 16 weeks, and then subjected to radiologic, histologic, histomorphometric and histochemical assessment. The attachment of mouse bone marrow stromal ST-2 cells on the disks of the OCP/Gel composites was also examined after 1 day of incubation. OCP/Gel composites containing 24 wt.%, 31 wt.% and 40 wt.% of OCP and with approximate pore sizes of 10-500 μm were obtained. Plate-like crystals were observed closely associated with the Gel matrices. TEM, XRD, FTIR and SAED confirmed that the plate-like crystals were identical to those of the OCP phase, but contained a small amount of sphere-like amorphous material adjacent to the OCP crystals. The OCP (40 wt.%)/Gel composite repaired 71% of the CSD in conjunction with material degradation by osteoclastic cells, which reduced the percentage of the remaining implant to less than 3% within 16 weeks. Of the seeded ST-2 cells, 60-70% were able to migrate and attach to the OCP/Gel composites after 1 day of incubation, regardless of the OCP content. These results indicate that an OCP/Gel composite can repair rat calvarial CSD very efficiently and has favorable biodegradation characteristics. Therefore, it is hypothesized that host osteoblastic cells can easily migrate into an OCP/Gel composite.

Abstract
Collagen gels were seeded with rabbit bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and contracted onto sutures at initial cell densities of 1, 4, and 8 million cells/ml. These MSC-collagen composites were then implanted into full thickness, full length, central defects created in the patellar tendons of the animals providing the cells. These autologous repairs were compared to natural repair of identical defects on the contralateral side. Biomechanical, histological, and morphometric analyses were performed on both repair tissue types at 6, 12, and 26 weeks after surgery. Repair tissues containing the MSC-collagen composites showed significantly higher maximum stresses and moduli than natural repair tissues at 12 and 26 weeks postsurgery. However, no significant differences were observed in any dimensional or mechanical properties of the repair tissues across seeding densities at each evaluation time. By 26 weeks, the repairs grafted with MSC-collagen composites were one-fourth of the maximum stress of the normal central portion of the patellar tendon with bone ends. The modulus and maximum stress of the repair tissues grafted with MSC-collagen composites increased at significantly faster rates than did natural repairs over time. Unexpectedly, 28% of the MSC-collagen grafted tendons formed bone in the regenerating repair site. Except for increased repair tissue volume, no significant differences in cellular organization or histological appearance were observed between the natural repairs and MSC-collagen grafted repairs. Overall, these results show that surgically implanting tissue engineered MSC-collagen composites significantly improves the biomechanical properties of tendon repair tissues, although greater MSC concentrations produced no additional significant histological or biomechanical improvement.

Abstract
A correlation among the oriented growth of octacalcium phosphate (OCP), the arrangement of the collagen fibrils in a collagenous matrix and direction of ionic flow was studied in vitro at pH7.0 and at 37 degrees, using two types of collagen disks made from sliced bovine Achilles tendon. Disk A and disk B were made from slices cut perpendicular and parallel to the collagen fibrils, respectively. The products on the collagen fibrils were a mixture of OCP and apatite in the both disks, but the relative amounts of apatite and OCP could not be determined. Short plate-like or flake-like OCP crystals grew parallel to the collagen fibrils and ionic flow on the Ca-side of the disk A. On the contrary, ribbon-like or rectangular OCP crystals grew along the collagen fibrils lying on the disk B. Apatite also grew with the same orientation as OCP in the both cases. The oriented and length-wise growth of OCP crystals on the disk B was ascribed to the arrangement of the collagen fibrils in the disk.

Abstract
The effect of pH on the calcification and the permselectivity for the Ca2+ and PO4(3-) ions of a collagenous matrix were studied at pH6.5, 7.0 and 7.4 and at 37 degrees C, using slices of Achilles tendon of a cow, which were cut into disks, in an experimental system where Ca2+ and PO4(3-) ions diffused into the collagen disk from the mutually opposite sides of the disk. The products on and inside the disk were a mixture of octacalcium phosphate (OCP) and apatite regardless of the solution pH. At pH6.5, few crystals grew on the PO4-side of the disk, while many crystals grew on the Ca-side. Crystal growth on the PO4-side was enhanced at higher pH, while that on the Ca-side was suppressed. With an increase in pH, the diffusion of Ca2+ ion through the disk increased, while that of PO4(3-) ion decreased. The mode of crystal growth on the collagen disk was consistent with the mode of ionic diffusion through the matrix. Inside the disk, the influence of pH on the crystal growth was not obvious. It was suggested that the electrochemical property of the collagenous matrix regulated the ionic inflow into the matrix and thereby affected its calcification.
