Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling encompasses a multitude of functions, including regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, morphogenesis, and patterning. FGFs and their receptors (FGFR) are crucial for adult tissue repair processes. Aberrant FGF signal transduction is associated with various pathological conditions such as cartilage damage, bone loss, muscle reduction, and other core pathological changes observed in orthopedic degenerative diseases like osteoarthritis (OA), intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), osteoporosis (OP), and sarcopenia. In OA and IVDD pathologies specifically, FGF1, FGF2, FGF8, FGF9, FGF18, FGF21, and FGF23 regulate the synthesis, catabolism, and ossification of cartilage tissue. Additionally, the dysregulation of FGFR expression (FGFR1 and FGFR3) promotes the pathological process of cartilage degradation. In OP and sarcopenia, endocrine-derived FGFs (FGF19, FGF21, and FGF23) modulate bone mineral synthesis and decomposition as well as muscle tissues. FGF2 and other FGFs also exert regulatory roles. A growing body of research has focused on understanding the implications of FGF signaling in orthopedic degeneration. Moreover, an increasing number of potential targets within the FGF signaling have been identified, such as FGF9, FGF18, and FGF23. However, it should be noted that most of these discoveries are still in the experimental stage, and further studies are needed before clinical application can be considered. Presently, this review aims to document the association between the FGF signaling pathway and the development and progression of orthopedic diseases. Besides, current therapeutic strategies targeting the FGF signaling pathway to prevent and treat orthopedic degeneration will be evaluated.

Sui H, Dou J, Shi B, Cheng X. The reciprocity of skeletal muscle and bone: an evolving view from mechanical coupling, secretory crosstalk to stem cell exchange. Front Physiol 2024; 15:1349253. [PMID: 38505709 PMCID: PMC10949226 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2024.1349253] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Muscle and bone constitute the two main parts of the musculoskeletal system and generate an intricately coordinated motion system. The crosstalk between muscle and bone has been under investigation, leading to revolutionary perspectives in recent years. Method and results: In this review, the evolving concept of muscle-bone interaction from mechanical coupling, secretory crosstalk to stem cell exchange was explained in sequence. The theory of mechanical coupling stems from the observation that the development and maintenance of bone mass are largely dependent on muscle-derived mechanical loads, which was later proved by Wolff's law, Utah paradigm and Mechanostat hypothesis. Then bone and muscle are gradually recognized as endocrine organs, which can secrete various cytokines to modulate the tissue homeostasis and remodeling to each other. The latest view presented muscle-bone interaction in a more direct way: the resident mesenchymal stromal cell in the skeletal muscle, i.e., fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs), could migrate to the bone injury site and contribute to bone regeneration. Emerging evidence even reveals the ectopic source of FAPs from tissue outside the musculoskeletal system, highlighting its dynamic property. Conclusion: FAPs have been established as the critical cell connecting muscle and bone, which provides a new modality to study inter-tissue communication. A comprehensive and integrated perspective of muscle and bone will facilitate in-depth research in the musculoskeletal system and promote novel therapeutic avenues in treating musculoskeletal disorders.

Scaling up production of recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor in an Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) plysS strain and evaluation of its pro-wound healing efficacy. Front Pharmacol 2024; 14:1279516. [PMID: 38375209 PMCID: PMC10875678 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1279516] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 02/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Human basic fibroblast growth factor (hbFGF) is a highly valuable multifunctional protein that plays a crucial role in various biological processes. In this study, we aim to accomplish the scaling-up production of mature hbFGF (146aa) by implementing a high cell-density fermentation and purification process on a 500-L scale, thereby satisfying the escalating demands for both experimental research and clinical applications. Methods: The hbFGF DNA fragment was cloned into a mpET-3c vector containing a kanamycin resistance gene and then inserted into Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) plysS strain. To optimize the yield of hbFGF protein, various fermentation parameters were systematically optimized using BOX-Behnken design and further validated in large-scale fermentation (500-L). Additionally, a three-step purification protocol involving CM-Sepharose, heparin affinity, and SP-Sepharose column chromatography was developed to separate and purify the hbFGF protein. Isoelectric focusing electrophoresis, MALDI-TOF/MS analysis, amino acid sequencing, CD spectroscopy, and Western blotting were performed to authenticate its identity. The biological efficacy of purified hbFGF was evaluated using an MTT assay as well as in a diabetic deep second-degree scald model. Results: The engineered strain was successfully constructed, exhibiting high expression of hbFGF and excellent stability. Under the optimized fermentation conditions, an impressive bacterial yield of 46.8 ± 0.3 g/L culture with an expression level of hbFGF reaching 28.2% ± 0.2% was achieved in 500-L scale fermentation. Subsequently, during pilot-scale purification, the final yield of purified hbFGF protein was 114.6 ± 5.9 mg/L culture with RP-HPLC, SEC-HPLC, and SDS-PAGE purity exceeding 98%. The properties of purified hbFGF including its molecular weight, isoelectric point (pI), amino sequence, and secondary structure were found to be consistent with theoretical values. Furthermore, the purified hbFGF exhibited potent mitogenic activity with a specific value of 1.05 ± 0.94 × 106 AU/mg and significantly enhanced wound healing in a deep second-degree scald wound diabetic rat model. Conclusion: This study successfully established a stable and efficient large-scale production process of hbFGF, providing a solid foundation for future industrial production.

Abstract
Coating layers consisting of a crystalline apatite matrix with immobilized basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) can release bFGF, thereby enhancing bone regeneration depending on their bFGF content. We hypothesized that the incorporation of fluoride ions into apatite crystals would enable the tailored release of bFGF from the coating layer depending on the layer's fluoride content. In the present study, coating layers consisting of fluoride-incorporated apatite (FAp) crystals with immobilized bFGF were coated on a porous collagen sponge by a precursor-assisted biomimetic process using supersaturated calcium phosphate solutions with various fluoride concentrations. The fluoride content in the coating layer increased with the increasing fluoride concentration of the supersaturated solution. The increased fluoride content in the coating layer reduced its solubility and suppressed the burst release of bFGF from the coated sponge into a physiological salt solution. The bFGF release was caused by the partial dissolution of the coating layer and, thus, accompanied by the fluoride release. The concentrations of released bFGF and fluoride were controlled within the estimated effective ranges in enhancing bone regeneration. These findings provide useful design guidelines for the construction of a mineralized, bFGF-releasing collagen scaffold that would be beneficial for bone tissue engineering, although further in vitro and in vivo studies are warranted.

Sci Prog 2024; 107:368504241228964. [PMID: 38489928 PMCID: PMC10943733 DOI: 10.1177/00368504241228964] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
Background/Aim: The ideal treatment of tooth avulsion is replantation. However, replanting teeth may lead to root resorption. Fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) is a cytokine that plays an important role in wound repair and tissue regeneration. Recently, FGF-2 has been studied a potential regenerative agent to prevent root resorption and ankylosis. The aim of this review is to analyze and summarize the currently available literature focusing on using FGF-2 based regenerative modalities to improve the outcomes of tooth replantation. Materials and Methods: An electronic search was conducted via PubMed/Medline, Google Scholar and ISI Web of Knowledge, using the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms "Basic fibroblast growth factor," "Fibroblast growth factor-2," "tooth replantation," and "replantation" for studies published between January 2001 and June 2021. Data was extracted and quality assessment was carried using the ARRIVE guidelines. Results: Nine animal studies were included in this review. In six studies, FGF-2 had a favorable effect on the tissue regeneration around roots of replanted teeth when compared to other treatment groups. However, quality assessment of the studies revealed many sources of bias and deficiencies in the studies. Conclusions: Within the limitations of this study, it may be concluded that FGF-2 may improve the outcomes of delayed replantation of avulsed teeth. However, more long-term animal studies, with improved experimental designs, and clinical trials are required to determine the clinical potential of the growth factor in improving the outcomes of delayed tooth replantation.

Abstract
The significance of the osteogenesis-angiogenesis relationship in the healing process of bone defects has been increasingly emphasized in recent academic research. Surface topography plays a crucial role in guiding cellular behaviors. Metal-organic framework (MOF) is an innovative biomaterial with nanoscale structural and topological features, enabling the modulation of scaffold physicochemical properties. This study involved the loading of varying quantities of UiO-66 nanocrystals onto alkali-heat treated 3D-printed titanium scaffolds, resulting in the formation of hierarchical micro/nano topography named UiO-66/AHTs. The physicochemical properties of these scaffolds were subsequently characterized. Furthermore, the impact of these scaffolds on the osteogenic potential of BMSCs, the angiogenic potential of HUVECs, and their intercellular communication were investigated. The findings of this study indicated that 1/2UiO-66/AHT outperformed other groups in terms of osteogenic and angiogenic induction, as well as in promoting intercellular crosstalk by enhancing paracrine effects. These results suggest a promising biomimetic hierarchical topography design that facilitates the coupling of osteogenesis and angiogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascularization plays an important role in dental and craniofacial regenerations. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) are a promising cell source and, when co-cultured with human umbilical vein endothelial cells (hUVECs), could promote vascularization. The objectives of this study were to develop a novel prevascularized hPDLSC-hUVEC-calcium phosphate construct, and investigate the osteogenic and angiogenic efficacy of this construct with human platelet lysate (hPL) in cranial defects in rats for the first time. METHODS hPDLSCs and hUVECs were co-cultured on calcium phosphate cement (CPC) scaffolds with hPL. Cell proliferation, angiogenic gene expression, angiogenesis, alkaline phosphatase activity, and cell-synthesized minerals were determined. Bone and vascular regenerations were investigated in rat critical-sized cranial defects in vivo. RESULTS hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC-hPL group had 2-fold greater angiogenic expressions and cell-synthesized mineral synthesis than hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC group (p < 0.05). Microcapillary-like structures were formed on scaffolds in vitro. hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC-hPL group had more vessels than hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC group (p < 0.05). In cranial defects in rats, hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC-hPL group regenerated new bone amount that was 2.1 folds and 4.0 folds, respectively, that of hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC group and CPC control (p < 0.05). New blood vessel density of hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC-hPL group was 2 folds and 7.9 folds, respectively, that of hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC group and CPC control (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The hPL pre-culture method is promising to enhance bone regeneration via prevascularized CPC. Novel hPDLSC-hUVEC-CPC-hPL prevascularized construct increased new bone formation and blood vessel density by 4-8 folds over CPC control. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Novel hPDLSC-hUVEC-hPL-CPC prevascularized construct greatly increased bone and vascular regeneration in vivo and hence is promising for a wide range of craniofacial applications.

Sustained growth factor delivery from bioactive PNIPAM-grafted-chitosan/heparin multilayers as a tool to promote growth and migration of cells. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2023; 154:213589. [PMID: 37598438 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2023.213589] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 08/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023]
Abstract
Delivery of growth factors (GFs) is challenging for regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation due to their rapid inactivation under physiological conditions. Here, a bioactive polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) is engineered by the combination of thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and glycosaminoglycans to be used as reservoir for GF storage. PNIPAM-grafted-chitosan (PChi) with two degrees of substitution (DS) are synthesized, namely LMW* (DS 0.14) and HMW (DS 0.03), by grafting low (2 kDa) and high (10 kDa) molecular weight of PNIPAM on the backbone of chitosan (Chi) to be employed as polycations to form PEM with the polyanion heparin (Hep) at pH 4. Subsequently, PEMs are chemically crosslinked to improve their stability at physiological pH 7.4. Resulting surface and mechanical properties indicate that PEM containing HMW is responsive to temperature at 20 °C and 37 °C, while LMW is not. More importantly, Hep as terminal layer combined with HMW allows not only a better retention of the adhesive protein vitronectin but also a sustained release of FGF-2 at 37 °C. With the synergistic effect of vitronectin and matrix-bound FGF-2, significant promotion on adhesion, proliferation, and migration of 3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblasts is achieved on HMW-containing PEM compared to Chi-containing PEM and exogenously added FGF-2. Thus, PEM containing PNIPAM in combination with bioactive glycosaminoglycans like Hep represents a versatile approach to fabricate a GF delivery system for efficient cell culture, which can be potentially served as cell culture substrate for production of (stem) cells and bioactive wound dressing for tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Critical-sized bone defects are a reconstructive challenge, particularly in the craniomaxillofacial (CMF) skeleton. The "gold standard" of autologous bone grafting has been the work horse of reconstruction in both congenital and acquired defects of CMF skeleton. Autologous bone has the proper balance of the protein (or organic) matrix and mineral components with no immune response. Organic and mineral adjuncts exist that offer varying degrees of osteogenic, osteoconductive, osteoinductive, and osteostimulative properties needed for treatment of critical-sized defects. In this review, we discuss the various mostly organic and mostly mineral bone graft substitutes available for autologous bone grafting. Primarily organic bone graft substitutes/enhancers, including bone morphogenic protein, platelet-rich plasma, and other growth factors, have been utilized to support de novo bone growth in setting of critical-sized bone defects. Primarily mineral options, including various calcium salt formulation (calcium sulfate/phosphate/apatite) and bioactive glasses have been long utilized for their similar composition to bone. Yet, a bone graft substitute that can supplant autologous bone grafting is still elusive. However, case-specific utilization of bone graft substitutes offers a wider array of reconstructive options.

Abstract
Screws coated with fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2)-calcium phosphate (CP) composite layers exhibit enhanced soft tissue and bone formation and angiogenesis because of the biological activity of FGF-2. Furthermore, the mitogenic activity of the FGF-2 within the composite layers remains unchanged after gamma-ray sterilization, which may improve the storage stability prior to clinical use. However, the in vivo safeties of these screws as spinal implants remain unknown. Here, a randomized controlled trial, involving non-human primates, investigated the safety of using FGF-2-CP composite layer-coated screws after either gamma-ray sterilization or aseptic processing. Titanium alloy screws coated with FGF-2-CP composite layers and subjected to either gamma-ray sterilization at 25 kGy (GS group) or aseptic storage (AS group) were implanted into the vertebral bodies of two cynomolgus monkeys exceeding 12 weeks (day 99). Physiological, histological, and radiographic investigations were performed to evaluate the safeties of the screws. There were no serious adverse events, such as surgical site infection, significant loss of body weight, or abnormal blood test results. No radiolucent areas were observed around the screws from the GS or AS group throughout the study. In the intraosseous region, no significant differences were observed in bone and fibrous tissue apposition rates and rate of bone formation between the two groups (p = 0.49, 0.77, and 0.11, respectively). Neither tumor lesions nor accumulation of lymphocytes and neutrophils were observed in either group. Our data suggest that FGF-2-CP composite layer-coated screws subjected to terminal gamma-ray sterilization are as safe as those fabricated in aseptic processing.

Abstract
The craniofacial region is composed of 23 bones, which provide crucial function in keeping the normal position of brain and eyeballs, aesthetics of the craniofacial complex, facial movements, and visual function. Given the complex geometry and architecture, craniofacial bone defects not only affect the normal craniofacial structure but also may result in severe craniofacial dysfunction. Therefore, the exploration of rapid, precise, and effective reconstruction of craniofacial bone defects is urgent. Recently, developments in advanced bone tissue engineering bring new hope for the ideal reconstruction of the craniofacial bone defects. This report, presenting a first-time comprehensive review of recent advances of biomaterials in craniofacial bone tissue engineering, overviews the modification of traditional biomaterials and development of advanced biomaterials applying to craniofacial reconstruction. Challenges and perspectives of biomaterial development in craniofacial fields are discussed in the end.

Abstract
The use of biomaterials and bioactive agents has shown promise in bone defect repair, leading to the development of strategies for bone regeneration. Various artificial membranes, especially collagen membranes (CMs) that are widely used for periodontal therapy and provide an extracellular matrix-simulating environment, play a significant role in promoting bone regeneration. In addition, numerous growth factors (GFs) have been used as clinical applications in regenerative therapy. However, it has been established that the unregulated administration of these factors may not work to their full regenerative potential and could also trigger unfavorable side effects. The utilization of these factors in clinical settings is still restricted due to the lack of effective delivery systems and biomaterial carriers. Hence, considering the efficiency of bone regeneration, both spaces maintained using CMs and GFs can synergistically create successful outcomes in bone tissue engineering. Therefore, recent studies have demonstrated a significant interest in the potential of combining CMs and GFs to effectively promote bone repair. This approach holds great promise and has become a focal point in our research. The purpose of this review is to highlight the role of CMs containing GFs in the regeneration of bone tissue, and to discuss their use in preclinical animal models of regeneration. Additionally, the review addresses potential concerns and suggests future research directions for growth factor therapy in the field of regenerative science.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different metoprolol doses on fat graft survival. MATERIAL AND METHOD A total of 10 Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. The dorsal regions of the rats were separated into four quadrants: right and left cranial, and right and left caudal. Each quadrant was determined as a separate group. Fat grafts were harvested from the groin areas and incubated in 5 ml solutions containing 0.9% sodium chloride (control group), 1 mg/mL metoprolol (Group 1), 2 mg/mL metoprolol (Group 2), and 3 mg/mL metoprolol (Group 3), respectively. The fat grafts were then placed in pockets dissected in each of the 4 dorsal quadrants. After 3 months all the rats were euthanized. The fat grafts were removed together with the surrounding area to which they had passed. Histopathological examination was made with hematoxylin and eosin (HE) and Masson Trichrome staining, and immunohistochemical examination with fibroblast growth factor-2 and perilipin staining. RESULTS In the examinations made with HE and Masson Trichrome staining, the scores of Group 2 and Group 3 were determined to be significantly higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). The Group 3 scores were significantly higher than those of Group 1 (p < 0.05). In the examinations made with fibroblast growth factor-2 staining, the scores of Group 2 and Group 3 were determined to be significantly higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). The Group 3 scores were significantly higher than those of Group 1 and Group 2 (p < 0.05). In the examinations made with perilipin staining, the scores in Groups 1, 2, and 3 were higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Although metoprolol has previously been shown to prolong the survival of fat grafts, the results of this study demonstrated immunohistochemically that as the metoprolol dose increased, so the quality and vitality of fat graft also increased.

Abstract
Bone-substitute materials are essential in dental implantology. We prepared collagen (Col)/hydroxyapatite (Hap)/acidic gelatin (AG)/basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) constructs with enhanced bone-forming capability. The Col/Hap apatite composites were prepared by immersing Col sponges alternately in calcium and phosphate ion solutions five times, for 20 and 60 min, respectively. Then, the sponges were heated to 56 °C for 48 h. Scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction analyses showed that the Col/Hap composites contained poorly crystalline Hap precipitates on the Col matrix. Col/Hap composite granules were infiltrated by AG, freeze-dried, and immersed in b-FGF solution. The wet quaternary constructs were implanted in rat cranial bone defects for 8 weeks, followed by soft X-ray measurements and histological analysis. Animal studies have shown that the constructs moderately increase bone formation in cranial bone defects. We found that an alternate immersion time of 20 min led to the greatest bone formation (p < 0.05). Constructs placed inside defects slightly extend the preexisting bone from the defect edges and lead to the formation of small island-like bones inside the defect, followed by disappearance of the constructs. The combined use of Col, Hap, AG, and b-FGF might bring about novel bone-forming biomaterials.

Abstract
Bone defects caused by various factors may cause morphological and functional disorders that can seriously affect patient's quality of life. Autologous bone grafting is morbid, involves numerous complications, and provides limited volume at donor site. Hence, tissue-engineered bone is a better alternative for repair of bone defects and for promoting a patient's functional recovery. Besides good biocompatibility, scaffolding materials represented by hydroxyapatite (HA) composites in tissue-engineered bone also have strong ability to guide bone regeneration. The development of manufacturing technology and advances in material science have made HA composite scaffolding more closely related to the composition and mechanical properties of natural bone. The surface morphology and pore diameter of the scaffold material are more important for cell proliferation, differentiation, and nutrient exchange. The degradation rate of the composite scaffold should match the rate of osteogenesis, and the loading of cells/cytokine is beneficial to promote the formation of new bone. In conclusion, there is no doubt that a breakthrough has been made in composition, mechanical properties, and degradation of HA composites. Biomimetic tissue-engineered bone based on vascularization and innervation show a promising future.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a potentially disabling orthopedic condition that requires total hip arthroplasty in most late-stage cases. However, mechanisms underlying the development of ONFH remain unknown, and the therapeutic strategies remain limited. Growth factors play a crucial role in different physiological processes, including cell proliferation, invasion, metabolism, apoptosis, and stem cell differentiation. Recent studies have reported that polymorphisms of growth factor-related genes are involved in the pathogenesis of ONFH. Tissue and genetic engineering are attractive strategies for treating early-stage ONFH. In this review, we summarized dysregulated growth factor-related genes and their role in the occurrence and development of ONFH. In addition, we discussed their potential clinical applications in tissue and genetic engineering for the treatment of ONFH.

Abstract
At a time of unpredictable challenges for health, one trend is certain: there is an exceedingly high demand for functional implants, particularly bone grafts. This has encouraged the emergence of bone tissue engineering substitutes as an alternative method to conventional bone grafts. However, the current approaches in the field face several limitations that have prevented the ultimate translation into clinical settings. As a result, many attempts have been made to fabricate synthetic bone implants that can offer suitable biological and mechanical properties.Light curable methacrylate-based polymers have ideal properties for bone repair. These materials are also suitable for 3D printing which can be applicable for restoration of both function and aesthetics. The main objective of this research was to investigate the role of calcium phosphate (CaP) incorporation in a mechanically stable, biologically functional and 3D printable polymer for the reconstruction of complex craniofacial defects. The experimental work initially involved the synthesis of (((((((((((3R,3aR,6S,6aR)- hexahydrofuro[3,2-b]furan-3,6-diyl)bis(oxy))bis(ethane-2,1- 48 diyl))bis(oxy))bis(carbonyl))bis(azanediyl))bis(3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexane-5,1- 49 diyl))bis(azanediyl))bis(carbonyl))bis(oxy))bis(ethane-2,1-diyl) bis(2-methylacrylate) referred to as CSMA and fabrication of composite discs via a Digital Light Printing (DLP) method. The flow behaviour of the polymer as a function of CaP addition, surface remineralisation potential, in vitro cell culture, using MC3T3 and Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ADSCs) and ex ovo angiogenic response was assessed. Finally, in vivo studies were carried out to investigate neo-bone formation at 4- and 8-weeks post-implantation. Quantitative micro-CT and histological evaluation did not show a higher rate of bone formation in CaP filled CSMA composites compared to CSMA itself. Therefore, such polymeric systems hold promising features by allowing more flexibility in designing a 3D printed scaffold targeted at the reconstruction of maxillofacial defects.

Abstract
Reconstruction of critical-sized bone defects remains a tremendous challenge for surgeons worldwide. Despite the variety of surgical techniques, current clinical strategies for bone defect repair demonstrate significant limitations and drawbacks, including donor-site morbidity, poor anatomical match, insufficient bone volume, bone graft resorption, and rejection. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) has emerged as a novel approach to guided bone tissue regeneration. BTE focuses on in vitro manipulations with seed cells, growth factors and bioactive scaffolds using bioreactors. The successful clinical translation of BTE requires overcoming a number of significant challenges. Currently, insufficient vascularization is the critical limitation for viability of the bone tissue-engineered construct. Furthermore, efficacy and safety of the scaffolds cell-seeding and exogenous growth factors administration are still controversial. The in vivo bioreactor principle (IVB) is an exceptionally promising concept for the in vivo bone tissue regeneration in a predictable patient-specific manner. This concept is based on the self-regenerative capacity of the human body, and combines flap prefabrication and axial vascularization strategies. Multiple experimental studies on in vivo BTE strategies presented in this review demonstrate the efficacy of this approach. Routine clinical application of the in vivo bioreactor principle is the future direction of BTE; however, it requires further investigation for overcoming some significant limitations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To construct a silk fibroin-bone microparticle composite based on a porous silk fibroin membrane and to study its feasibility as a material to reconstruct an orbital bone defect. METHODS A 3D porous silk fibroin membrane scaffold was constructed with a defined pore size and incorporated with bone microparticles from a New Zealand rabbit orbital bone defect. The silk fibroin-bone microparticle composite was then implanted into the orbital bone defect to promote osteogenesis along the surface of the porous silk fibroin membrane. The feasibility of constructing an ideal orbital defect repair material and the silk fibroin-bone micronucleus complex was evaluated by animal experiments, molecular biology, histomorphology, imaging, raw molecular mechanisms, and the biological behavior of the material in vivo. RESULTS The silk fibroin-bone microparticle composite promotes angiogenesis and osteogenesis to repair bone defects in vivo. Moreover, SF (silk fibroin)/BD (bone dust) complex promotes osteogenesis and angiogenesis by activating FGF2 (Fibroblast Growth Factor 2) and SF scaffolds can bind and restore FGF2. CONCLUSION Silk fibroin is biocompatible and the silk fibroin-bone microparticle complex successfully repaired orbital bone defects. Additionally, fibroblast growth factor expression around or within the remaining incompletely degraded silk fibroin materials was observed in vivo.

Abstract
The extracellular microenvironment is a highly dynamic network of biophysical and biochemical elements, which surrounds cells and transmits molecular signals. Extracellular microenvironment controls are of crucial importance for the ability to direct cell behavior and tissue regeneration. In this review, we focus on the different components of the extracellular microenvironment, such as extracellular matrix (ECM), extracellular vesicles (EVs) and growth factors (GFs), and introduce engineering approaches for these components, which can be used to achieve a higher degree of control over cellular activities and behaviors for tissue regeneration. Furthermore, we review the technologies established to engineer native-mimicking artificial components of the extracellular microenvironment for improved regenerative applications. This review presents a thorough analysis of the current research in extracellular microenvironment engineering and monitoring, which will facilitate the development of innovative tissue engineering strategies by utilizing different components of the extracellular microenvironment for regenerative medicine in the future.

Abstract
In native bone tissue regeneration, blood vessels, providing oxygen and nutrition for tissues, can promote the regeneration of bone and accelerate the repair of a defected area. In this study, Poly(D, L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) inverse opal scaffolds with high pore interconnectivity were fabricated and further modified with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The rat bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were co-cultured onto the scaffolds to enhance vascularization for bone tissue regeneration. Cell attachment, viability, proliferation, and morphology were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, live and dead staining and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Hydrostatic pressure with 0-279 KPa and 1 Hz one hour per day for 7 days was applied to tissue engineered bone constructs to investigate whether the loading stimulation can promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis mutually evaluated in parallel by multiple in vitro assays and in an in vivo chicken chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. The results indicated that the immobilization of VEGF can improve biocompatibility of PLGA scaffolds and promote cell attachment and proliferation. The cell-scaffold constructs showed higher CD31 expression because of the angiogenic differentiation of rMSCs in hydrostatic loading culture condition in vitro. The in vivo CAM model experiment demonstrated that hydrostatic loading stimulated angiogenic differentiation of rMSCs can accelerate tubulogenesis. Furthermore, the new capillaries formed in cell-scaffold constructs were conducive to calcium deposition in vivo.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 19 subfamily, also known as endocrine fibroblast growth factors (FGFs), is a newly discovered metabolic regulator, including FGF19, FGF21 and FGF23. They play significant roles in maintaining systemic homeostasis, regulating the balance of bile acid and glucolipid metabolism in humans. Osteoporosis is a chronic disease, especially in the current status of aging population, osteoporosis is the most prominent chronic bone disease, leading to multiple complications and a significant economic burden that requires long-term or even lifelong management. Members of the FGF family have been shown to be associated with bone mineral density (BMD), fracture repair and cartilage regeneration. Studies of the FGF19 subfamily in different populations with osteoporosis have been increasing in recent years. This review summarizes the role of the FGF19 subfamily in bone metabolism, and provides new options for the treatment of bone diseases such as osteoporosis.
