Abstract
Oxygenating biomaterials can alleviate anoxic stress, stimulate vascularization, and improve engraftment of cellularized implants. However, the effects of oxygen-generating materials on tissue formation have remained largely unknown. Here, we investigate the impact of calcium peroxide (CPO)-based oxygen-generating microparticles (OMPs) on the osteogenic fate of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) under a severely oxygen deficient microenvironment. To this end, CPO is microencapsulated in polycaprolactone to generate OMPs with prolonged oxygen release. Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels containing osteogenesis-inducing silicate nanoparticles (SNP hydrogels), OMPs (OMP hydrogels), or both SNP and OMP (SNP/OMP hydrogels) are engineered to comparatively study their effect on the osteogenic fate of hMSCs. OMP hydrogels associate with improved osteogenic differentiation under both normoxic and anoxic conditions. Bulk mRNAseq analyses suggest that OMP hydrogels under anoxia regulate osteogenic differentiation pathways more strongly than SNP/OMP or SNP hydrogels under either anoxia or normoxia. Subcutaneous implantations reveal a stronger host cell invasion in SNP hydrogels, resulting in increased vasculogenesis. Furthermore, time-dependent expression of different osteogenic factors reveals progressive differentiation of hMSCs in OMP, SNP, and SNP/OMP hydrogels. Our work demonstrates that endowing hydrogels with OMPs can induce, improve, and steer the formation of functional engineered living tissues, which holds potential for numerous biomedical applications, including tissue regeneration and organ replacement therapy.

A novel route of colloidal chemistry: room temperature reactive interactions between titanium monoxide and silicon monoxide sols produced by laser ablation in liquid resulting in the formation of titanium disilicide. Dalton Trans 2022; 51:13831-13847.

Abstract
In spite of advanced research on functional colloidal inorganic nanoparticles and their reactivity, room temperature reactive interactions between two different colloids have remained challenging so far. Laser ablation of titanium monoxide and silicon monoxide in ethanol and water allows the generation of TiO-derived and SiO-derived colloidal nanoparticles which were characterized for their stability, size distribution and zeta potentials with dynamic light scattering and after evaporation of solvent examined for their morphology, chemical and phase composition by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction and small angle X-ray scattering. Aqueous and ethanolic TiO-derived colloids consist of anatase and monoclinic TiO, while ethanolic SiO-derived colloids are composed of crystalline and amorphous Si, nanocrystalline Si and SiO2 and aqueous SiO-derived colloids contain, in addition to these phases, a high pressure form of cristobalite. Simple room temperature mixing of ethanolic TiO- and SiO-derived colloids allows the formation of TiSi2, which is a case of so far unreported room temperature reactive interactions between two colloidal species. All colloids absorb solar light and act as photocatalysts for methylene blue degradation. These findings present a challenge for further search for feasible room-temperature reactions between distinct colloidal particles and open the potential for green synthesis of other desirable and hardly achievable phases.
