Abstract
In the aging society, slow bone regeneration poses a serious hindrance to the quality of life. To deal with this problem, in this study, we have combined irisin with the bioglass regular beads to enhance the bone regeneration process. For this purpose, highly porous bioglass was obtained as spherical beads by using sodium alginate. The bioglass was evaluated by various analytical techniques such as SEM, EDS, XRD, and pore size distribution. The results depicted that porous bioglass was prepared correctly and SEM analysis showed a highly porous bioglass was formulated. On this bioglass, irisin was loaded with the assistance of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) in three concentrations (50 ng/ml, 100 ng/ml, and 150 ng/ml per 1 g of bioglass). SEM analysis showed that pores are covered with PVA. The irisin release profile showed a sustained release over the time period of 7 days. In vitro, biocompatibility evaluation by the MC3T3E1 cells showed that prepared bioglass and irisin loaded bioglass (BGI50, BGI100, and BG150) are highly biocompatible. Alizarin Red staining analysis showed that after 2 weeks BGI50 samples showed highest calcium nodule formation. In vivo in the rabbit femur model was conducted for 1 and 2 months. BGI150 samples showed highest BV/TV ratio of 37.1 after 2 months. The histological data showed new bone formation surrounding the beads and with beads loaded with irisin. Immunohistochemistry using markers OPN, RUNX, COL, and ALP supported the osteogenic properties of the irisin-loaded bioglass beads. The results indicated that irisin-loaded bioglass displayed remarkable bone regeneration.

Abstract
Teeth include mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are multipotent cells that promote tooth growth and repair. Dental tissues, specifically the dental pulp and the dental bud, constitute a relevant source of multipotent stem cells, known as dental-derived stem cells (d-DSCs): dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) and dental bud stem cells (DBSCs). Cell treatment with bone-associated factors and stimulation with small molecule compounds are, among the available methods, the ones who show excellent advantages promoting stem cell differentiation and osteogenesis. Recently, attention has been paid to studies on natural and non-natural compounds. Many fruits, vegetables, and some drugs contain molecules that can enhance MSC osteogenic differentiation and therefore bone formation. The purpose of this review is to examine research work over the past 10 years that has investigated two different types of MSCs from dental tissues that are attractive targets for bone tissue engineering: DPSCs and DBSCs. The reconstruction of bone defects, in fact, is still a challenge and therefore more research is needed; the articles reviewed are meant to identify compounds useful to stimulate d-DSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation. We only consider the results of the research which is encouraging, assuming that the mentioned compounds are of some importance for bone regeneration.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated the physico-biological and in-vivo evaluation of irisin loaded 45S5 bioglass bone graft for enhancing osteoblastic differentiation and bone regeneration in rat femur head defect model. Highly porous structure was obtained in the bioglass by burn-out process with varying the concentration of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) spheres. 10 % polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was used as a binder for the sustain releasing of irisin on porous bioglass. Different concentrations of irisin were loaded on the selected bioglass samples and these were further evaluated for the biocompatibility and osteoblastic differentiation properties. The in vitro results demonstrated not only its biocompatibility but also that it stimulated pre-osteoblast differentiation. The in vivo data showed new bone formation as well as expression of osteogenic proteins like alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2), osteopontin (OPN), and collagen-1 (Col-1). Our results support the use of irisin loaded bioglass for the use of early bone regeneration.

Abstract
Irisin is a recently discovered cytokine, better known as an exercise-induced myokine, produced primarily in skeletal muscle tissue as a response to exercise. Although the skeleton was initially identified as the main target of Irisin, its action is also proving effective in many other tissues. Physical activity determines a series of beneficial effects on health, including the possibility of counteracting the damage that is caused by arthritis to the cartilage of people suffering from osteoarthritis. Nevertheless, up to now, the studies that have taken into consideration the possible involvement of Irisin on the well-being of cartilage tissue are particularly limited. In this study, we postulated that the protective effect of physical activity on cartilage tissue may depend on the paracrine action of Irisin secreted during exercise; therefore, we analyzed the effects of Irisin, in vitro, on chondrogenic differentiation. To achieve this goal, three-dimensional cultures of commercially available human articular chondrocytes (HACs) were treated with the molecule under study. Our results revealed new crosstalk mechanisms between muscle and cartilage tissue. Furthermore, the confirmation of Irisin ability to induce chondrogenic differentiation could favor the development of exercise-mimetic drugs, with application relevance for patients who cannot perform physical activity.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding single-stranded RNA molecules encoded by endogenous genes, which play a vital role in cell generation, metabolism, apoptosis and stem cell differentiation. C3H10T1/2, a mesenchymal cell extracted from mouse embryos, is capable of osteogenic differentiation, adipogenic differentiation and chondrogenic differentiation. Extensive studies have shown that not only miRNAs can directly trigger targeted genes to regulate the tri-lineage differentiation of C3H10T1/2, but it also can indirectly regulate the differentiation by triggering different signaling pathways or various downstream molecules. This paper aims to clarify the regulatory roles of different miRNAs on C3H10T1/2 differentiation, and discussing their balance effect among osteogenic differentiation, adipogenic differentiation and chondrogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2. We also review the biogenesis of miRNAs, Wnt signaling pathways, MAPK signaling pathways and BMP signaling pathways and provide some specific examples of how these signaling pathways act on C3H10T1/2 tri-lineage differentiation. On this basis, we hope that a deeper understanding of the differentiation and regulation mechanism of miRNAs in C3H10T1/2 can provide a promising therapeutic method for the clinical treatment of bone defects, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and other diseases.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop an in vitro model of severe immunocompetent-dry eye disease (ic-DED) and to investigate the mechanism of action of a T-lysial ocular surface modulator. MATERIALS AND METHODS The reconstructed human corneal epithelium (HCE) was exposed to dryness stimuli. THP-1 cell infiltration into HCE was monitored at 4 h and 24 h from T-lysial application by immunohistochemistry (CD14, CD86, AQP3) and molecular biology (AQP3, TLR4 and TNF-α). RESULTS A reduction of CD14, CD86 and AQP3 was observed after T-lysial treatment at 24 h. TLR4 was overexpressed in ic-DED model and downregulated by T-Lysial after 24 h. TNF-α expression was not modified. CONCLUSION The ic-DED model can be used to monitor the migration and differentiation of THP-1 into HCE. T-lysial was found to exert anti-inflammatory activity. This experimental model is a promising tool to study the crosstalk between epithelial and immune cells, providing new insights on the mechanisms of DED onset.

Abstract
Simple Summary Irisin is a recently discovered protein, mainly produced in the muscle tissue, whose action is proving effective in many other tissues. The crosstalk between muscle and bone has been long since demonstrated, and physical activity has shown to have an impressive positive effect in both tissues. Irisin production increases with exercising and drops with sedentariness and aging, indicating that the molecule is involved in sarcopenia and in bone mass reduction. Although skeleton is target of irisin, its mechanism of action on bone cells has not yet been completely elucidated. The aim of this work is to analyze the effect of irisin on osteoblast differentiation; to this purpose, we used a stem cell model reproducing the osteoblastogenesis and the bone-forming processes. We performed an in vitro study exploring the main osteoblast markers in the presence of irisin. We found that irisin has an impressive effect on the most peculiar osteoblast feature: the bone mineral matrix secretion process. Moreover, irisin demonstrated an inductive effect on osteoblast osteocalcin production. Both results suggest a stimulating effect of irisin in bone formation. The association we observed between irisin addition and osteoblast osteocalcin production should be further investigated. Abstract The myokine irisin, well known for its anabolic effect on bone tissue, has been demonstrated to positively act on osteoblastic differentiation processes in vitro. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have captured great attention in precision medicine and translational research for several decades due to their differentiation capacity, potent immunomodulatory properties, and their ability to be easily cultured and manipulated. Dental bud stem cells (DBSCs) are MSCs, isolated from dental tissues, that can effectively undergo osteoblastic differentiation. In this study, we analyzed, for the first time, the effects of irisin on DBSC osteogenic differentiation in vitro. Our results indicated that DBSCs were responsive to irisin, showed an enhanced expression of osteocalcin (OCN), a late marker of osteoblast differentiation, and displayed a greater mineral matrix deposition. These findings lead to deepening the mechanism of action of this promising molecule, as part of osteoblastogenesis process. Considering the in vivo studies of the effects of irisin on skeleton, irisin could improve bone tissue metabolism in MSC regenerative procedures.

Abstract
Background The articular cartilage is unique in that it contains only a single type of cell and shows poor ability for spontaneous healing. Cartilage tissue engineering which uses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) is considered an attractive treatment for cartilage lesions and osteoarthritis. The establishment of cartilage regenerative medicine is an important clinical issue, but the search for cell sources able to restore cartilage integrity proves to be challenging. The aim of this study was to create cartilage grafts from the combination of AT-MSCs and collagen substrates. Methods Mesenchymal stem cells were obtained from human donors' adipose tissue, and collagen scaffold, obtained from human skin and cleaned from blood vessels, adipose tissues, and debris, which only preserve dermis and epidermis, were seeded and cultured on collagen substrates and differentiated to chondrocytes. The obtained chondrocyte extracellular matrix of cartilage was then evaluated for the expression of chondrocyte-/cartilage-specific markers, the Cartilage Oligomeric Matrix Protein (COMP), collagen X, alpha-1 polypeptide (COL10A1), and the Collagen II, Human Tagged ORF Clone (COL2A1) by using the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results Our findings have shown that the dermal collagen may exert important effects on the quality of in vitro expanded chondrocytes, leading in this way that the influence of collagen skin matrix helps to produce highly active and functional chondrocytes for long-term cartilage tissue regeneration. Conclusion This research opens up the possibility of generating cartilage grafts with the precise purpose of improving the existing limitation in current clinical procedures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES As an ideal cell source for tissue engineering and bone defect repair, dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have good osteogenic differentiation potential. Chrysin, a flavonoid extracted from oroxylum seeds, has been proven to promote bone formation of bone marrow stem cells. However, the effect of chrysin on osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of Chrysin in promoting osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs and in DPSC-based bone formation. MATERIAL AND METHODS We investigated the effects of chrysin on DPSCs from patients by CCK-8 assay, Alizarin Red S staining, qPCR and Western blotting. The effects of chrysin on DPSC-based bone formation in a heterotopic osteogenesis model in nude mice and a rat calvarial defect model were also performed. Finally, we investigated the mechanism of chrysin-treated DPSCs by proteomics. RESULTS Chrysin upregulated the expression of osteogenic proteins and induced osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs. Moreover, chrysin induced abundant β-TCP-induced formation of mineralized bone tissue and promoted DPSC-based bone formation in a heterotopic osteogenesis model in nude mice and a rat calvarial defect model. Proteomics showed that upregulation of the Smad3 was closely related to osteogenic differentiation. Inhibiting of Smad3 activation by a Smad3 inhibitor could reverse the chrysin-mediated increases in the expression levels of osteogenic genes and osteogenic induction of DPSCs. CONCLUSIONS Our study implies the intriguing potential of chrysin-treated DPSCs in bone regeneration and bone defect repair.

Abstract
Diseases determining bone tissue loss have a high impact on people of any age. Bone healing can be improved using a therapeutic approach based on tissue engineering. Scientific research is demonstrating that among bone regeneration techniques, interesting results, in filling of bone lesions and dehiscence have been obtained using adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) integrated with biocompatible scaffolds. The geometry of the scaffold has critical effects on cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. Many cytokines and compounds have been demonstrated to be effective in promoting MSCs osteogenic differentiation. Oligostilbenes, such as Resveratrol (Res) and Polydatin (Pol), can increase MSCs osteoblastic features. 3D printing is an excellent technique to create scaffolds customized for the lesion and thus optimized for the patient. In this work we analyze osteoblastic features of adult MSCs integrated with 3D-printed polycarbonate scaffolds differentiated in the presence of oligostilbenes.
