Abstract
Bone is a metabolically dynamic structure that is generally remodeled throughout the lifetime of an individual but often causes problems with increasing age. A key player for bone development and homeostasis, but also under pathological conditions, is the bone vasculature. This complex system of arteries, veins, and capillaries forms distinct structures where each subset of endothelial cells has important functions. Starting with the basic process of angiogenesis and bone-specific blood vessel formation, coupled with initial bone formation, the importance of different vascular structures is highlighted with respect to how these structures are maintained or changed during homeostasis, aging, and pathological conditions. After exemplifying the current knowledge on bone vasculature, this review will move on to exosomes, a novel hotspot of scientific research. Exosomes will be introduced starting from their discovery via current isolation procedures and state-of-the-art characterization to their role in bone vascular development, homeostasis, and bone regeneration and repair while summarizing the underlying signal transduction pathways. With respect to their role in these processes, especially mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles are of interest, which leads to a discussion on patented applications and an update on ongoing clinical trials. Taken together, this review provides an overview of bone vasculature and bone regeneration, with a major focus on how exosomes influence this intricate system, as they might be useful for therapeutic purposes in the near future.

Abstract
Polysaccharides, with the abundant availability, biodegradability, and inherent safety, offer a vast array of promising applications. Leveraging the remarkable attributes of polysaccharides, biomimetic and multifunctional hydrogels have emerged as a compelling avenue for efficacious wound dressing. The gels emulate the innate extracellular biomatrix as well as foster cellular proliferation. The distinctive structural compositions and profusion of functional groups within polysaccharides confer excellent physical/chemical traits as well as distinct restorative involvements. Gels crafted from polysaccharide matrixes serve as a robust defense against bacterial threats, effectively shielding wounds from harm. This comprehensive review delves into wound physiology, accentuating the significance of numerous polysaccharide-based gels in the wound healing context. The discourse encompasses an exploration of polysaccharide hydrogels tailored for diverse wound types, along with an examination of various therapeutic agents encapsulated within hydrogels to facilitate wound repair, incorporating recent patent developments. Within the scope of this manuscript, the perspective of these captivating gels for promoting optimal healing of wounds is vividly depicted. Nevertheless, the pursuit of knowledge remains ongoing, as further research is warranted to bioengineer progressive polysaccharide gels imbued with adaptable features. Such endeavors hold the promise of unlocking substantial potential within the realm of wound healing, propelling us toward multifaceted and sophisticated solutions.

Abstract
Cellulose-based antibacterial hydrogel has good biocompatibility, antibacterial performance, biodegradability, and other characteristics. It can be very compatible with human tissues and degradation, while its good water absorption and moisturizing properties can effectively absorb wound exudates, keep the wound moist, and promote wound healing. In this paper, the structural properties, and physical and chemical cross-linking preparation methods of cellulose-based antibacterial hydrogels were discussed in detail, and the application of cellulose-based hydrogels in the antibacterial field was deeply studied. In general, cellulose-based antibacterial hydrogels, as a new type of biomaterial, have shown good potential in antimicrobial properties and have been widely used. However, there are still some challenges, such as optimizing the preparation process and performance parameters, improving the antibacterial and physical properties, broadening the application range, and evaluating safety. However, with the deepening of research and technological progress, it is believed that cellulose-based antibacterial hydrogels will be applied and developed in more fields in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioactive polysaccharides are a promising way for bone disease prevention with high efficiency. Schizophyllan (SPG) is a polysaccharide derived from a species of fungus with anticancer, antitumor, and anti-inflammatory effects. In the present study, for the first time, the cell proliferation, osteogenic markers, mineral deposition, and osteogenic gene expression of human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADMSCs) grown on SPG were evaluated by in vitro assays. METHODS AND RESULTS The cytotoxicity of SPG was measured using the MTT assay and acridine orange staining. Differentiation of hADMSCs was assessed using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity test, cellular calcium content assay, and mineralized matrix staining. To this end, Alizarin red S, von Kossa staining, and the expression of bone-specific markers, including ALP, Runx2, and osteonectin, were used by real-time RT-PCR over a 2-week period. According to the results, SPG at 10 µg/ml concentration was determined as the optimal dosage for differentiation studies. The results of osteogenic differentiation tests showed that compared to the control groups in vitro, SPG enhanced the osteogenic markers and mineralization as well as upregulation of the expression of bone specific genes in differentiated hADMSCs during differentiation. CONCLUSIONS The results revealed that SPG could be applied as effective factor for osteogenic differentiation in the future. The current study provides insights into the hADMSC-based treatment and introduces promising therapeutic material for individuals who suffer from bone defects and injuries.

Abstract
Limitations associated with conventional bone substitutes such as autografts, increasing demand for bone grafts, and growing elderly population worldwide necessitate development of unique materials as bone graft substitutes. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) would ensure therapy advancement, efficiency, and cost-effective treatment modalities of bone defects. One way of engineering bone tissue scaffolds by mimicking natural bone tissue composed of organic and inorganic phases is to utilize polysaccharide-bioceramic hybrid composites. Polysaccharides are abundant in nature, and present in human body. Biominerals, like hydroxyapatite are present in natural bone and some of them possess osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. Ion doped bioceramics could substitute protein-based biosignal molecules to achieve osteogenesis, vasculogenesis, angiogenesis, and stress shielding. This review is a systemic summary on properties, advantages, and limitations of polysaccharide-bioceramic/ion doped bioceramic composites along with their recent advancements in BTE.

Abstract
The skeletal system is responsible for weight-bearing, organ protection, and movement. Bone diseases caused by trauma, infection, and aging can seriously affect a patient's quality of life. Bone targeted biomaterials are suitable for the treatment of bone diseases. Biomaterials with bone-targeted properties can improve drug utilization and reduce side effects. A large number of bone-targeted micro-nano materials have been developed. However, only a few studies addressed bone-targeted hydrogel. The large size of hydrogel makes it difficult to achieve systematic targeting. However, local targeted hydrogel still has significant prospects. Molecules in bone/cartilage extracellular matrix and bone cells provide binding sites for bone-targeted hydrogel. Drug delivery systems featuring microgels with targeting properties is a key construction strategy for bone-targeted hydrogel. Besides, injectable hydrogel drug depot carrying bone-targeted drugs is another strategy. In this review, we summarize the bone-targeted hydrogel through application environment, construction strategies and disease applications. We hope this article will provide a reference for the development of bone-targeted hydrogels. We also hope this article could increase awareness of bone-targeted materials. Introducing the microenvironment and target molecules in different parts of long bones. Summarizing the construction strategy of micro/nanoparticle hydrogel with bone targeting properties. Summarizing the construction strategy of hydrogel based depot carrying bone-targeted drugs. Reporting the application and effect of bone targeting hydrogel in common bone diseases.

Abstract
At present, aerogel is one of the most interesting materials globally. The network of aerogel consists of pores with nanometer widths, which leads to a variety of functional properties and broad applications. Aerogel is categorized as inorganic, organic, carbon, and biopolymers, and can be modified by the addition of advanced materials and nanofillers. Herein, this review critically discusses the basic preparation of aerogel from the sol-gel reaction with derivation and modification of a standard method to produce various aerogels for diverse functionalities. In addition, the biocompatibility of various types of aerogels were elaborated. Then, biomedical applications of aerogel were focused on this review as a drug delivery carrier, wound healing agent, antioxidant, anti-toxicity, bone regenerative, cartilage tissue activities and in dental fields. The clinical status of aerogel in the biomedical sector is shown to be similarly far from adequate. Moreover, due to their remarkable properties, aerogels are found to be preferably used as tissue scaffolds and drug delivery systems. The advanced studies in areas including self-healing, additive manufacturing (AM) technology, toxicity, and fluorescent-based aerogel are crucially important and are further addressed.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the potential of an ultrashort aromatic peptide hydrogelator integrated with hyaluronic acid (HA) to serve as a scaffold for bone regeneration. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl-diphenylalanine (FmocFF)/HA hydrogel was prepared and characterized using microscopy and rheology. Osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts was investigated using Alizarin red, alkaline phosphatase and calcium deposition assays. In vivo, 5-mm-diameter calvarial critical-sized defects were prepared in 20 Sprague-Dawley rats and filled with either FmocFF/HA hydrogel, deproteinized bovine bone mineral, FmocFF/Alginate hydrogel or left unfilled. Eight weeks after implantation, histology and micro-computed tomography analyses were performed. Immunohistochemistry was performed in six rats to assess the hydrogel's immunomodulatory effect. RESULTS A nanofibrous FmocFF/HA hydrogel with a high storage modulus of 46 KPa was prepared. It supported osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 preosteoblasts and facilitated calcium deposition. In vivo, the hydrogel implantation resulted in approximately 93% bone restoration. It induced bone deposition not only around the margins, but also generated bony islets along the defect. Elongated M2 macrophages lining at the periosteum-hydrogel interface were observed 1 week after implantation. After 3 weeks, these macrophages were dispersed through the regenerating tissue surrounding the newly formed bone. CONCLUSIONS FmocFF/HA hydrogel can serve as a cell-free, biomimetic, immunomodulatory scaffold for bone regeneration.

Abstract
This review's objectives are to provide an overview of the various kinds of biopolymer hydrogels that are currently used for bone tissue and periodontal tissue regeneration, to list the advantages and disadvantages of using them, to assess how well they might be used for nanoscale fabrication and biofunctionalization, and to describe their production processes and processes for functionalization with active biomolecules. They are applied in conjunction with other materials (such as microparticles (MPs) and nanoparticles (NPs)) and other novel techniques to replicate physiological bone generation more faithfully. Enhancing the biocompatibility of hydrogels created from blends of natural and synthetic biopolymers can result in the creation of the best scaffold match to the extracellular matrix (ECM) for bone and periodontal tissue regeneration. Additionally, adding various nanoparticles can increase the scaffold hydrogel stability and provide a number of biological effects. In this review, the research study of polysaccharide hydrogel as a scaffold will be critical in creating valuable materials for effective bone tissue regeneration, with a future impact predicted in repairing bone defects.

Abstract
In recent years, cellulose has attracted much attention because of its excellent properties, such as its hydrophilicity, mechanical properties, biodegradability, biocompatibility, low cost and low toxicity. In addition, cellulose and its derivatives contain abundant hydrophilic functional groups (such as hydroxyl, carboxyl and aldehyde groups), which are good raw materials for synthesizing biocompatible hydrogels. In this paper, the application prospects of cellulose and its derivatives-based hydrogels in biomedical tissue engineering are summarized and discussed through the analysis of recent research. Firstly, we discuss the structure and properties of cellulose, nano celluloses (NC) from different sources (including cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and bacterial nano celluloses (BNC)) and cellulose derivatives (including cellulose ethers and cellulose esters) obtained by different modification methods. Then, the properties and preparation methods of physical and chemical cellulose hydrogels are described, respectively. The application of cellulose-based hydrogels as a tissue engineering scaffold (skin, bone and cartilage) in the biomedical field is introduced. Finally, the challenges and prospects of cellulose-based hydrogels in tissue engineering are summarized.

Abstract
Wound management remains a worldwide challenge. It is undeniable that patients with problems such as difficulties in wound healing, metabolic disorder of the wound microenvironment and even severely infected wounds etc. always suffer great pain that affected their quality of lives. The selection of appropriate wound dressings is vital for the healing process. With the advances of technology, hydrogels dressings have been showing great potentials for the treatment of both acute wounds (e.g., burn injuries, hemorrhage, rupturing of internal organs/aorta) and chronic wounds such as diabetic foot and pressure ulcer. Particularly, in the past decade, polysaccharide-based hydrogels which are made up with abundant and reproducible natural materials that are biocompatible and biodegradable present unique features and huge flexibilities for modifications as wound dressings and are widely applicable in clinical practices. They share not only common characteristics of hydrogels such as excellent tissue adhesion, swelling, water absorption, etc., but also other properties (e.g., anti-inflammatory, bactericidal and immune regulation), to accelerate wound re-epithelialization, mimic skin structure and induce skin regeneration. Herein, in this review, we highlighted the importance of tailoring the physicochemical performance and biological functions of polysaccharide-based hydrogel wound dressings. We also summarized and discussed their clinical states of, aiming to provide valuable hints and references for the future development of more intelligent and multifunctional wound dressings of polysaccharide hydrogels.

Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:1393. [PMID: 35163315 PMCID: PMC8836178 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23031393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2021] [Revised: 01/19/2022] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Osteoporosis is a chronical, systemic skeletal disorder characterized by an increase in bone resorption, which leads to reduced bone density. The reduction in bone mineral density and therefore low bone mass results in an increased risk of fractures. Osteoporosis is caused by an imbalance in the normally strictly regulated bone homeostasis. This imbalance is caused by overactive bone-resorbing osteoclasts, while bone-synthesizing osteoblasts do not compensate for this. In this review, the mechanism is presented, underlined by in vitro and animal models to investigate this imbalance as well as the current status of clinical trials. Furthermore, new therapeutic strategies for osteoporosis are presented, such as anabolic treatments and catabolic treatments and treatments using biomaterials and biomolecules. Another focus is on new combination therapies with multiple drugs which are currently considered more beneficial for the treatment of osteoporosis than monotherapies. Taken together, this review starts with an overview and ends with the newest approaches for osteoporosis therapies and a future perspective not presented so far.

Abstract
This paper reports simple strategies to fabricate self-assembled artificial tubular and filamentous systems from a low molecular weight gelator (LMWG). In the first strategy, tubular ‘core–shell’ gel structures based on the dibenzylidenesorbitol-based LMWG DBS-CONHNH2 were made in combination with the polymer gelator (PG) calcium alginate. In the second approach, gel filaments based on DBS-CONHNH2 alone were prepared by wet spinning at elevated concentrations using a ‘solvent-switch’ approach. The higher concentrations used in wet-spinning prevent the need for a supporting PG. Furthermore, this can be extended into a 3D-printing method, with the printed LMWG objects showing excellent stability for at least a week in water. The LMWG retains its unique ability for in situ precious metal reduction, yielding Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) within the tubes and filaments when they are exposed to AuCl3 solutions. Since the gel filaments have a higher loading of DBS-CONHNH2, they can be loaded with significantly more AuNPs. Cytotoxicity and viability studies on human mesenchymal stem cells show that the DBS-CONHNH2 and DBS-CONHNH2/alginate hybrid gels loaded with AuNPs are biocompatible, with the presence of AuNPs enhancing stem cell metabolism. Taken together, these results indicate that DBS-CONHNH2 can be shaped and 3D-printed, and has considerable potential for use in tissue engineering applications. Simple fabrication and 3D-printing methods are used to generate tubes and filaments from self-assembled gels, which can be loaded in situ with gold nanoparticles, with the resulting gels encouraging stem cell proliferation.![]()

Abstract
Due to the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases, there is a large need for small diameter vascular grafts that cannot be fulfilled using autologous vessels. Although medium to large diameter synthetic vessels are in use, no suitable small diameter vascular graft has been developed due to the unique dynamic environment that exists in small vessels. To achieve long term patency, a successful tissue engineered vascular graft would need to closely match the mechanical properties of native tissue, be non-thrombotic and non-immunogenic, and elicit the proper healing response and undergo remodeling to incorporate into the native vasculature. Electrospinning presents a promising approach to the development of a suitable tissue engineered vascular graft. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the different polymers, techniques, and functionalization approaches that have been used to develop an electrospun tissue engineered vascular graft.

Abstract
Osteoporosis, one of the most serious public health concerns caused by an imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation, has a major impact on the population. Therefore, finding the effective osteogenic compounds for the treatment of osteoporosis is a promising research approach. In our study, tamarind (Tamarindus indica L.) seed polysaccharide (TSP) extracted from tamarind seed was subjected to synthesize its sulfate derivatives. The 1H NMR, FT-IR, SEM, monosaccharide compositions and elemental analysis data revealed that tamarind seed polysaccharide sulfate (TSPS) was successfully prepared. As the result, TSPS showed potent effects on inducing osteoblast differentiation via increasing alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity up to 20% after 10 days and bone mineralization approximately 58% after four weeks at concentration of 20 μg/mL, whereas no statistically increase for both ALP activity and bone mineralization was observed in TSP treatment. Furthermore, TSPS enhanced expression of several marker genes in bone formation. Overall, the obtained data provided novelty on osteogenic compounds originated from TSP of T. indica, as well as scientific fundamentals on drug development and bone tissue engineering for the treatment of osteoporosis and other bone-related diseases.

Abstract
Current approaches in stem cell-based bone tissue engineering require a release of bioactive compounds over up to 2 weeks. This study presents a polyelectrolyte-layered system featuring sustained release of water-soluble drugs with decreased burst release. The bioactive compounds adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), suramin, and A740003 (a less water-soluble purinergic receptor ligand) were incorporated into alginate hydrogel beads subsequently layered with different polyelectrolytes (chitosan, poly(allyl amine), alginate, or lignosulfonate). Drug release into aqueous medium was monitored over 14 days and evaluated using Korsmeyer-Peppas, Peppas-Sahlin, Weibull models, and a Langmuir-like "Two-Stage" model. Release kinetics strongly depended on both the drug and the polyelectrolyte system. For ATP, five alternating layers of poly(allyl amine) and alginate proved to be most effective in sustaining the release. Release of suramin could be prolonged best with lignosulfonate as polyanion. A740003 showed prolonged release even without layering. Applying polyelectrolyte layers significantly slowed down the burst release. Release curves could be best described with the Langmuir-like model.

Abstract
Dental stem cells have been isolated from the medical waste of various dental tissues. They have been characterized by numerous markers, which are evaluated herein and differentiated into multiple cell types. They can also be used to generate cell lines and iPSCs for long-term in vitro research. Methods for utilizing these stem cells including cellular systems such as organoids or cell sheets, cell-free systems such as exosomes, and scaffold-based approaches with and without drug release concepts are reported in this review and presented with new pictures for clarification. These in vitro applications can be deployed in disease modeling and subsequent pharmaceutical research and also pave the way for tissue regeneration. The main focus herein is on the potential of dental stem cells for hard tissue regeneration, especially bone, by evaluating their potential for osteogenesis and angiogenesis, and the regulation of these two processes by growth factors and environmental stimulators. Current in vitro and in vivo publications show numerous benefits of using dental stem cells for research purposes and hard tissue regeneration. However, only a few clinical trials currently exist. The goal of this review is to pinpoint this imbalance and encourage scientists to pick up this research and proceed one step further to translation.

Can Sustainable Packaging Help to Reduce Food Waste? A Status Quo Focusing Plant-Derived Polymers and Additives. APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL 2021.

Abstract
The promotion of sustainable packaging is part of the European Green Deal and plays a key role in the EU’s social and political strategy. One option is the use of renewable resources and biomass waste as raw materials for polymer production. Lignocellulose biomass from annual and perennial industrial crops and agricultural residues are a major source of polysaccharides, proteins, and lignin and can also be used to obtain plant-based extracts and essential oils. Therefore, these biomasses are considered as potential substitute for fossil-based resources. Here, the status quo of bio-based polymers is discussed and evaluated in terms of properties related to packaging applications such as gas and water vapor permeability as well as mechanical properties. So far, their practical use is still restricted due to lower performance in fundamental packaging functions that directly influence food quality and safety, the length of shelf life, and thus the amount of food waste. Besides bio-based polymers, this review focuses on plant extracts as active packaging agents. Incorporating extracts of herbs, flowers, trees, and their fruits is inevitable to achieve desired material properties that are capable to prolong the food shelf life. Finally, the adoption potential of packaging based on polymers from renewable resources is discussed from a bioeconomy perspective.

Abstract
Chitosan, a naturally occurring biodegradable and biocompatible polymer, has found use as a food additive, nutraceuticals, and functional foods in recent years. In this study, gallic acid-g-chitosan (GAC) was prepared by the insertion of GA onto plain chitosan (PC) via free radical-mediated grafting and its osteogenic effects were investigated in murine bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (mBMMSCs). Structural characterization of PC and GAC was performed using 1H NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. The amount of GA successfully grafted onto PC was 111 mg GA/g GAC via the Folin-Ciocalteu's method. While PC and GAC promoted the increase in alkaline phosphatase activity and mineralization, GAC increased these factors significantly more than PC, indicating that the grafting of GA onto chitosan increased its osteogenic potential. Mechanistic study revealed that GAC activated Wnt1 and Wnt3a mRNA and protein expression as well as increased the translocation of β-catenin into the nucleus and upregulated the expression of β-catenin targeted genes including Runx2, osterix, type I collagen and cyclin D1. In addition, DKK-1, a Wnt antagonist, decreased GAC-mediated osteoblast differentiation in mBMMSCs through blocking the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Abstract
High energy traumas could cause critical damage to bone, which will require permanent implants to recover while functionally integrating with the host bone. Critical sized bone defects necessitate the use of bioactive metallic implants. Because of bioinertness, various methods involving surface modifications such as surface treatments, the development of novel alloys, bioceramic/bioglass coatings, and biofunctional molecule grafting have been utilized to effectively integrate metallic implants with a living bone. However, the applications of these methods demonstrated a need for an interphase layer improving bone-making to overcome two major risk factors: aseptic loosening and peri-implantitis. To accomplish a biologically functional bridge with the host to prevent loosening, regenerative cues, osteoimmunomodulatory modifications, and electrochemically resistant layers against corrosion appeared as imperative reinforcements. In addition, interphases carrying antibacterial cargo were proven to be successful against peri-implantitis. In the literature, metallic implant coatings employing natural polymers as the main matrix were presented as bioactive interphases, enabling rapid, robust, and functional osseointegration with the host bone. However, a comprehensive review of natural polymer coatings, bridging and grafting on metallic implants, and their activities has not been reported. In this review, state-of-the-art studies on multifunctional natural polymer-based implant coatings effectively utilized as a bone tissue engineering (BTE) modality are depicted. Protein-based, polysaccharide-based coatings and their combinations to achieve better osseointegration via the formation of an extracellular matrix-like (ECM-like) interphase with gap filling and corrosion resistance abilities are discussed in detail. The hypotheses and results of these studies are examined and criticized, and the potential future prospects of multifunctional coatings are also proposed as final remarks.

Abstract
Engineered nanoparticles have been broadly used in biological and geological systems. Hydrophilic molecules such as polyols have been used as coatings on nanoparticle surfaces due to their good biocompatibility and solubility in saline water. However, polyol coatings can cause huge retention of nanoparticles when encountering mineral surfaces. Here, molecular dynamics simulations enlightened that the strong adhesion of hydrophilic coatings to mineral surfaces stemming from the partitioning of the hydroxy groups on the hydrophilic molecules to the well-defined bound hydration layers on the mineral surfaces. To mitigate the nanoparticle adhesion, we investigated introducing small percentages of omniphobic fluoroalkanes to form a bicomponent system of hydrophilic and fluoroalkanes, which greatly perturbed the hydration layers on mineral surfaces and resulted in nonstick surface coatings. Our results provide important insight for the design of tunable “stickiness” nanoparticle coatings in different mineralogies, such as applications in subsurface environments or targeted delivery in mineralized tissues.

Abstract
The 3D-printed hybrid biodegradable hydrogels composed of alginate, gelatin, and cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were prepared to provide a favorable environment for cell proliferation, adhesion, nutrients exchange, and matrix mineralization for bone tissue engineering (BTE) applications. The hybrid scaffolds exhibited enhanced mechanical strength compared to the pure polymer scaffolds. The biocompatibility, differentiation potential, and bone regeneration potential of the printed scaffolds were evaluated by DAPI staining, live-dead assay, alizarin Red-S (ARS) staining, real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), and μCT analysis, respectively. Enhanced cell proliferation has occurred 1% CNC/Alg/Gel scaffolds compared to the control. The cells were adequately adhered to the scaffold and exhibited the flattened structure. Improved mineralization was observed in the 1% CNC/Alg/Gel scaffolds' presence than the control, showing their mineralization efficiency. A significant enhancement in the expression of osteogenic-specific gene markers (Runx2, ALP, BMP-2, OCN, OPN, BSP, and COL1) has occurred with 1% CNC/Alg/Gel than the control, indicating their osteogenic potential. Furthermore, enhanced bone formation was observed in the scaffolds treated groups than the control in the calvaria critical-sized defects (CCD-1) model, suggesting their improved bone regeneration potential. Therefore, the fabricated scaffolds have the potential to explore as a biomaterial for tissue engineering.

Abstract
With increasing life expectancy, demands for dental tissue and whole-tooth regeneration are becoming more significant. Despite great progress in medicine, including regenerative therapies, the complex structure of dental tissues introduces several challenges to the field of regenerative dentistry. Interdisciplinary efforts from cellular biologists, material scientists, and clinical odontologists are being made to establish strategies and find the solutions for dental tissue regeneration and/or whole-tooth regeneration. In recent years, many significant discoveries were done regarding signaling pathways and factors shaping calcified tissue genesis, including those of tooth. Novel biocompatible scaffolds and polymer-based drug release systems are under development and may soon result in clinically applicable biomaterials with the potential to modulate signaling cascades involved in dental tissue genesis and regeneration. Approaches for whole-tooth regeneration utilizing adult stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, or tooth germ cells transplantation are emerging as promising alternatives to overcome existing in vitro tissue generation hurdles. In this interdisciplinary review, most recent advances in cellular signaling guiding dental tissue genesis, novel functionalized scaffolds and drug release material, various odontogenic cell sources, and methods for tooth regeneration are discussed thus providing a multi-faceted, up-to-date, and illustrative overview on the tooth regeneration matter, alongside hints for future directions in the challenging field of regenerative dentistry.

Abstract
Bone tissue is the second tissue to be replaced. Annually, over four million surgical treatments are performed. Tissue engineering constitutes an alternative to autologous grafts. Its application requires three-dimensional scaffolds, which mimic human body environment. Bone tissue has a highly organized structure and contains mostly inorganic components. The scaffolds of the latest generation should not only be biocompatible but also promote osteoconduction. Poly (lactic acid) nanofibers are commonly used for this purpose; however, they lack bioactivity and do not provide good cell adhesion. Chitosan is a commonly used biopolymer which positively affects osteoblasts' behavior. The aim of this article was to prepare novel hybrid 3D scaffolds containing nanohydroxyapatite capable of cell-response stimulation. The matrixes were successfully obtained by PLA electrospinning and microwave-assisted chitosan crosslinking, followed by doping with three types of metallic nanoparticles (Au, Pt, and TiO2). The products and semi-components were characterized over their physicochemical properties, such as chemical structure, crystallinity, and swelling degree. Nanoparticles' and ready biomaterials' morphologies were investigated by SEM and TEM methods. Finally, the scaffolds were studied over bioactivity on MG-63 and effect on current-stimulated biomineralization. Obtained results confirmed preparation of tunable biomimicking matrixes which may be used as a promising tool for bone-tissue engineering.
