Abstract
Periodontitis is a highly prevalent disease that damages the supporting tissues of a tooth, including the alveolar bone. Alveolar bone loss owing to periodontitis is broadly categorized as supra-alveolar and intra-alveolar bone loss. In intra-alveolar bone loss, the defect has an angular or oblique orientation to the long axis of the tooth in an apical direction. In contrast, the defect is perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth in supra-alveolar bone loss. Unlike intra-alveolar bone defects, supra-alveolar bone defects lack supporting adjacent space, which makes supra-alveolar bone regeneration more challenging. In addition, the limited availability of resources in terms of vascularity and underlying tissues is another obstacle to supra-alveolar bone regeneration. Currently, supra-alveolar bone loss is the least predictable periodontal defect type in regenerative periodontal therapy. In addition, supra-alveolar bone loss is much more common than other alveolar bone loss. Despite its prevalence, research on supra-alveolar bone regeneration remains sparse, indicating an unmet need for significant research efforts in this area. This review summarize recent advances, obstacles, and future directions in the field of supra-alveolar bone regeneration. We discuss the biomaterials, bioactive molecules, and cells that have been tested for supra-alveolar bone regeneration, followed by pre-clinical and clinical approaches employed in this field. Additionally, we highlight obstacles and present future directions that will propel supra-alveolar bone research forward.

Abstract
Nano carriers have gained more attention for their possible medical and technological applications. Tailored nanomaterials can transport medications efficiently to targeted areas and allow for sustained medication discharge, reducing undesirable toxicities while boosting curative effectiveness. Nonetheless, transitioning nanomedicines from experimental to therapeutic applications has proven difficult, so different pharmaceutical incorporation approaches in nano scaffolds are discussed. Then numerous types of nanobiomaterials implemented as carriers and their manufacturing techniques are explored. This article is also supported by various applications of nanobiomaterials in the biomedical field.

Abstract
The objective of this review is to examine the connection between osteoporosis and diabetes, compare the underlying causes of osteoporosis in various forms of diabetes, and suggest optimal methods for diagnosing and assessing fracture risk in diabetic patients. This narrative review discusses the key factors contributing to the heightened risk of fractures in individuals with diabetes, as well as the shared elements impacting the treatment of both diabetes mellitus and osteoporosis. Understanding the close link between diabetes and a heightened risk of fractures is crucial in effectively managing both conditions. There are several review articles of meta-analysis regarding diaporosis. Nevertheless, no review articles showed collected and well-organized medications of antidiabetics and made for inconvenient reading for those who were interested in details of drug mechanisms. In this article, we presented collected and comprehensive charts of every antidiabetic medication which was linked to fracture risk and indicated plausible descriptions according to research articles.

Abstract
Bone tumors, particularly osteosarcoma, are prevalent among children and adolescents. This ailment has emerged as the second most frequent cause of cancer-related mortality in adolescents. Conventional treatment methods comprise extensive surgical resection, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Consequently, the management of bone tumors and bone regeneration poses significant clinical challenges. Photothermal tumor therapy has attracted considerable attention owing to its minimal invasiveness and high selectivity. However, key challenges have limited its widespread clinical use. Enhancing the tumor specificity of photosensitizers through targeting or localized activation holds potential for better outcomes with fewer adverse effects. Combinations with chemotherapies or immunotherapies also present avenues for improvement. In this review, we provide an overview of the most recent strategies aimed at overcoming the limitations of photothermal therapy (PTT), along with current research directions in the context of bone tumors, including (1) target strategies, (2) photothermal therapy combined with multiple therapies (immunotherapies, chemotherapies, and chemodynamic therapies, magnetic, and photodynamic therapies), and (3) bifunctional scaffolds for photothermal therapy and bone regeneration. We delve into the pros and cons of these combination methods and explore current research focal points. Lastly, we address the challenges and prospects of photothermal combination therapy.

Abstract
Bone regeneration following trauma, tumor resection, infection, or congenital disease is challenging. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. It can result in complications affecting multiple systems including the musculoskeletal system. The increased number of diabetes-related fractures poses a great challenge to clinical specialties, particularly orthopedics and dentistry. Various pathological factors underlying DM may directly impair the process of bone regeneration, leading to delayed or even non-union of fractures. This review summarizes the mechanisms by which DM hampers bone regeneration, including immune abnormalities, inflammation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, vascular system damage, insulin/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) deficiency, hyperglycemia, and the production of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Based on published data, it also summarizes bone repair strategies in diabetic conditions, which include immune regulation, inhibition of inflammation, reduction of oxidative stress, promotion of angiogenesis, restoration of stem cell mobilization, and promotion of osteogenic differentiation, in addition to the challenges and future prospects of such approaches.

Abstract
Cervi cornu extracts have been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various disorders, including osteoporosis. However, since it is not easy to separate the active ingredients, limited research has been conducted on their functional properties. In this study, we extracted the low-molecular-weight (843 Da) collagen NP-2007 from cervi cornu by enzyme hydrolyzation to enhance absorption and evaluated the therapeutic effect in monosodium iodoacetate-induced rat osteoarthritis (OA) model. NP-2007 was orally administered at 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg for 21 days. We showed that the production of matrix metalloproteinase-2, -3, and -9, decreased after NP-2007 treatment. The levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and prostaglandin E2 were also reduced after treatment of NP-2007. Furthermore, the administration of NP-2007 resulted in effective preservation of both the synovial membrane and knee cartilage and significantly decreased the transformation of fibrous tissue. We verified that the treatment of NP-2007 significantly reduced the production of nitric oxide and pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in lipopolysaccharides-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells by regulation of the NF-kB and MAPK signaling pathways. This study indicates that NP-2007 can alleviate symptoms of osteoarthritis and can be applied as a novel treatment for OA treatment.

Biocompatible polymeric microparticles serve as novel and reliable vehicles for exogenous hormone manipulations in passerines. Gen Comp Endocrinol 2023; 336:114234. [PMID: 36791824 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2023.114234] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023]
Abstract
The administration of exogenous hormones emerged as an essential tool for field studies in endocrinology. However, working with wild animals remains challenging, because under field conditions not every available method meets the necessary requirements. Achieving a sustained elevation in hormone levels, while simultaneously minimising handling time and invasiveness of the procedure is a difficult task in field endocrinology. Facing this challenge, we have investigated the suitability of biocompatible polymeric microparticles, a novel method for drug-administration, as a tool to manipulate hormones in small songbirds. We chose the insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) as target hormone, because it receives great interest from the research community due to its important role in shaping life-history traits. Moreover, its short half-life and hydrophilic properties imply a major challenge in finding a suitable method to achieve a sustained, systemic long-term release. To study the release kinetics, we injected either IGF-1 loaded polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) microparticles or dispersion medium (control group) in the skin pocket of the interscapular region of captive bearded reedlings (Panurus biarmicus). We collected blood samples for 7 consecutive days plus an additional sampling period after two weeks and complemented these with an in vitro experiment. Our results show that in vitro, PLGA microparticles allowed a stable IGF-1 release for more than 15 days, following a burst release at the beginning of the measurement. In vivo, the initial burst was followed by a drop to still elevated levels in circulating IGF-1 until the effect vanished by 16 days post-treatment. This study is the first to describe the use of PLGA-microparticles as a novel tool for exogenous hormone administration in a small passerine. We suggest that this method is highly suitable to achieve the systemic long-term release of hydrophilic hormones with short half-life and reduces overall handling time, as it requires only one subcutaneous injection.

Abstract
Muscular diseases and injuries are challenging issues in human medicine, resulting in physical disability. The advent of tissue engineering approaches has paved the way for the restoration and regeneration of injured muscle tissues along with available conventional therapies. Despite recent advances in the fabrication, synthesis, and application of hydrogels in terms of muscle tissue, there is a long way to find appropriate hydrogel types in patients with congenital and/or acquired musculoskeletal injuries. Regarding specific muscular tissue microenvironments, the applied hydrogels should provide a suitable platform for the activation of endogenous reparative mechanisms and concurrently deliver transplanting cells and therapeutics into the injured sites. Here, we aimed to highlight recent advances in muscle tissue engineering with a focus on recent strategies related to the regulation of vascularization and immune system response at the site of injury.

Bone Sialoprotein Immobilized in Collagen Type I Enhances Angiogenesis In Vitro and In Ovo. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15041007. [PMID: 36850289 PMCID: PMC9968013 DOI: 10.3390/polym15041007] [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: 12/19/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/14/2023] [Indexed: 02/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Bone fracture healing is a multistep process, including early immunological reactions, osteogenesis, and as a key factor, angiogenesis. Molecules inducing osteogenesis as well as angiogenesis are rare, but hold promise to be employed in bone tissue engineering. It has been demonstrated that the bone sialoprotein (BSP) can induce bone formation when immobilized in collagen type I, but its effect on angiogenesis still has to be characterized in detail. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyse the effects of BSP immobilized in a collagen type I gel on angiogenesis. First, in vitro analyses with endothelial cells (HUVECs) were performed detecting enhancing effects of BSP on proliferation and gene expression of endothelial markers. A spheroid model was employed confirming these results. Finally, the inducing impact of BSP-collagen on vascular density was proved in a yolk sac membrane assay. Our results demonstrate that BSP is capable of inducing angiogenesis and confirm that collagen type I is the optimal carrier for this protein. Taking into account former results, and literature showing that BSP also induces osteogenesis, one can hypothesize that BSP couples angiogenesis and osteogenesis, making it a promising molecule to be used in bone tissue regeneration.

A New Osteogenic Membrane to Enhance Bone Healing: At the Crossroads between the Periosteum, the Induced Membrane, and the Diamond Concept. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:bioengineering10020143.

Abstract
The lack of viability of massive bone allografts for critical-size bone defect treatment remains a challenge in orthopedic surgery. The literature has reviewed the advantages of a multi-combined treatment with the synergy of an osteoconductive extracellular matrix (ECM), osteogenic stem cells, and growth factors (GFs). Questions are still open about the need for ECM components, the influence of the decellularization process on the latter, the related potential loss of function, and the necessity of using pre-differentiated cells. In order to fill in this gap, a bone allograft surrounded by an osteogenic membrane made of a decellularized collagen matrix from human fascia lata and seeded with periosteal mesenchymal stem cells (PMSCs) was analyzed in terms of de-/recellularization, osteogenic properties, PMSC self-differentiation, and angiogenic potential. While the decellularization processes altered the ECM content differently, the main GF content was decreased in soft tissues but relatively increased in hard bone tissues. The spontaneous osteogenic differentiation was necessarily obtained through contact with a mineralized bone matrix. Trying to deepen the knowledge on the complex matrix-cell interplay could further propel these tissue engineering concepts and lead us to provide the biological elements that allow bone integration in vivo.

Abstract
Tortoiseshell and deer antler gelatin has been used to treat bone diseases in Chinese society. A pepsin-digested gelatin peptide with osteoblast-proliferation-stimulating properties was identified via LC-MS/MS. The resulting pentapeptide, TSKYR, was presumably subjected to further degradation into TSKY, TSK, and YR fragments in the small intestine. The above four peptides were chemically synthesized. Treatment of tripeptide TSK can lead to a significant 30- and 50-fold increase in the mineralized nodule area and density in osteoblast cells and a 47.5% increase in the number of chondrocyte cells. The calcium content in tortoiseshell was relatively higher than in human soft tissue. The synergistic effects of calcium ions and the peptides were observed for changes in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. Moreover, these peptides can enhance the expression of RUNX2, OCN, FGFR2, and FRFR3 genes in osteoblasts, and aggrecan and collagen type II in chondrocyte (patent pending).

Abstract
Bone tissue is regenerated via the spatiotemporal involvement of various cytokines. Among them, the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP), which plays a vital role in the bone regeneration process, has been applied clinically for the treatment of refractory orthopedic conditions. Although BMP therapy using a collagen carrier has shown efficiency in bone regeneration over the last two decades, a major challenge-considerable side effects associated with the acute release of high doses of BMPs-has also been revealed. To improve BMP efficiency, the development of new carriers and biologics that can be used in conjunction with BMPs is currently underway. In this review, we describe the current status and future prospects of bone regeneration therapy, with a focus on BMPs. Furthermore, we outline the characteristics and molecular signaling pathways involving BMPs, clinical applications of BMPs in orthopedics, clinical results of BMP use in human spinal surgeries, drugs combined with BMPs to provide synergistic effects, and novel BMP carriers.

A clinical herbal prescription Gu-Shu-Kang capsule exerted beneficial effects on the musculoskeletal system of dexamethasone-treated mice by acting on tissue IGF-1 signalling pathway. PHARMACEUTICAL BIOLOGY 2022; 60:2098-2109. [PMID: 36269032 PMCID: PMC9590446 DOI: 10.1080/13880209.2022.2132029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
CONTEXT Gu-Shu-Kang (GSK) is a clinical traditional Chinese medicine prescription for the treatment of primary osteoporosis. OBJECTIVE This study investigates the protection of GSK against dexamethasone (Dex)-induced disturbance of musculoskeletal system in male mice and to identify the underlying mechanism. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice in Dex-treated groups were orally administered (i.g.) with vehicle, low dose (0.38 g/kg), middle dose (0.76 g/kg), or high dose (1.52 g/kg) of GSK for 8 weeks. A control group was designed without any treatment. The quadriceps femoris, tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius were harvested. Molecular expression was determined by RT-PCR and immunoblotting. RESULTS Treatment with GSK enhanced weight-loaded swimming time (from 411.7 ± 58.4 s in Dex group to 771.4 ± 87.3 s in GSK-M) and grip strength (from 357.8 ± 23.9 g in Dex group to 880.3 ± 47.6 g in GSK-M). GSK produced a rise in cross-sectional area of myofibers and promoted a switching of glycolytic-to-oxidative myofiber. The administration with GSK affected expression of muscle regulatory factors shown by the down-regulation in MuRF-1 and atrogin-1 and the up-regulation in myogenic differentiation factor (MyoD) and myosin heavy chain (MHC). GSK stimulated tissue IGF-1 signalling pathway (IGF-1R/PI3K/Akt), not only in skeletal muscle but also in bone associated with the amelioration of trabecular bone mineral density and the improvement of osteogenesis. CONCLUSIONS These findings revealed the potential mechanisms involved in the beneficial effects of Gu-Shu-Kang on musculoskeletal system in mice with challenging to dexamethasone, and this prescription may have applications in management for muscle atrophy and osteoporosis triggered by glucocorticoid.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is the physiological process of capillary growth. It is strictly regulated by the balanced activity of agents that promote the formation of capillaries (pro-angiogenic factors) on the one hand and inhibit their growth on the other hand (anti-angiogenic factors). Capillary rarefaction and insufficient angiogenesis are some of the main causes that limit blood flow during aging, whereas physical training is a potent non-pharmacological method to intensify capillary growth in the musculoskeletal system. The main purpose of this study is to present the current state of knowledge concerning the key signalling molecules implicated in the regulation of skeletal muscle and bone angiogenesis during aging and physical training.

Abstract
Tissue engineering technology provides a promising approach for large-scale bone reconstruction in cases of extensive chest wall defects. However, previous studies did not consider meticulous scaffold design specific to large-scale rib regeneration in terms of three-dimensional (3D) shape, proper porous structures, enough mechanical strength, and osteogenic microenvironments. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop an appropriate bone biomimetic scaffold (BBS) to address this problem. In this study, a BBS with controllable 3D morphology, appropriate mechanical properties, good biocompatibility and biodegradability, porous structure suitable for cell loading, and a biomimetic osteogenic inorganic salt (OIS) microenvironment was successfully prepared by integrating computer-aided design, 3D-printing, cast-molding, and freeze-drying technologies. The addition of the OIS in the scaffold substantially promoted ectopic bone regeneration in vivo, which might be attributed to the activation of osteogenic and angiogenic signaling pathways as well as upregulated expression of osteogenic genes. More importantly, dual long rib defects could be successfully repaired and medullary cavity recanalized by the rib-shaped mature cortical bone, which might be mediated by the activation of osteoclast signaling pathways. Thus, this paper presents a reliable BBS and proposes a new strategy for the repair of large-scale bone defects.

Abstract
Bone and periodontium are tissues that have a unique capacity to repair from harm. However, replacing or regrowing missing tissues is not always effective, and it becomes more difficult as the defect grows larger. Because of aging and the increased prevalence of debilitating disorders such as diabetes, there is a considerable increase in demand for orthopedic and periodontal surgical operations, and successful techniques for tissue regeneration are still required. Even with significant limitations, such as quantity and the need for a donor area, autogenous bone grafts remain the best solution. Topical administration methods integrate osteoconductive biomaterial and osteoinductive chemicals as hormones as alternative options. This is a promising method for removing the need for autogenous bone transplantation. Furthermore, despite enormous investigation, there is currently no single approach that can reproduce all the physiologic activities of autogenous bone transplants. The localized bioengineering technique uses biomaterials to administer different hormones to capitalize on the host’s regeneration capacity and capability, as well as resemble intrinsic therapy. The current study adds to the comprehension of the principle of hormone redirection and its local administration in both bone and periodontal tissue engineering.

Abstract
The osteogenic potential of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is critical for bone formation and regeneration. A high non-/delayed-union rate of fracture healing still occurs in specific populations, implying an urgent need to discover novel targets for promoting osteogenesis and bone regeneration. Long non-coding (lnc)RNAs are emerging regulators of multiple physiological processes, including osteogenesis. Based on differential expression analysis of RNA sequencing data, we found that lncRNA AC132217.4, a 3'UTR-overlapping lncRNA of insulin growth factor 2 (IGF2), was highly induced during osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Afterward, both gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments proved that AC132217.4 promotes osteoblast development from BMSCs. As for its molecular mechanism, we found that AC132217.4 binds with IGF2 mRNA to regulate its expression and downstream AKT activation to control osteoblast maturation and function. Furthermore, we identified two splicing factors, splicing component 35 KDa (SC35) and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (HNRNPA1), which regulate the biogenesis of AC132217.4 at the post-transcriptional level. We also identified a transcription factor, ALX1, which regulates AC132217.7 expression at the transcriptional level to promote osteogenesis. Importantly, in-vivo over-expression of AC132217.4 essentially promotes the bone healing process in a murine tibial drill-hole model. Our study demonstrates that lncRNA AC132217.4 is a novel anabolic regulator of BMSC osteogenesis and could be a plausible therapeutic target for improving bone regeneration.

Polypeptides IGF-1C and P24 synergistically promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in vitro through the p38 and JNK signaling pathways. Int J Biochem Cell Biol 2021; 141:106091.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) both promote osteogenesis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). IGF-1C, the C domain peptide of IGF-1, and P24, a BMP-2-derived peptide, both have similar biological activities as their parent growth factors. This study aimed to investigate the effects and mechanisms of polypeptides IGF-1C and P24 on the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. METHODS The optimum concentrations of IGF-IC and P24 were explored. The effects of the two polypeptides on BMSC proliferation and osteogenic differentiation were examined using a CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, ALP activity assay, alizarin red S staining, qPCR, and Western blotting. In addition, specific pathway inhibitors were utilized to explore whether the p38 and JNK pathways were involved in this process. RESULTS The optimal concentration of both polypeptides was 50 μg/ml. IGF-1C and P24 synergistically promoted BMSC proliferation, increased ALP activity and calcified nodule formation, upregulated the mRNA and protein levels of Osx, Runx2, Ocn, Opn, and Col1a1, and improved the phosphorylation levels of p38 and JNK proteins. Inhibition of the pathways significantly reduced p38 and JNK activation and blocked Runx2 expression while inhibiting ALP activity and calcified nodule formation. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that IGF-1C and P24 synergistically promote the osteogenesis of BMSCs through activation of the p38 and JNK signaling pathways.

Abstract
Challenges to discovery and preclinical development of long‐acting release systems for protein therapeutics include protein instability, use of organic solvents during encapsulation, specialized equipment and personnel, and high costs of proteins. We sought to overcome these issues by combining remote‐loading self‐healing encapsulation with binding HisTag protein to transition metal ions. Porous, drug‐free self‐healing microspheres of copolymers of lactic and glycolic acids with high molecular weight dextran sulfate and immobilized divalent transition metal (M2+) ions were placed in the presence of proteins with or without HisTags to bind the protein in the pores of the polymer before healing the surface pores with modest temperature. Using human serum albumin, insulin‐like growth factor 1, and granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF), encapsulated efficiencies of immunoreactive protein relative to nonencapsulation protein solutions increased from ~41%, ~23%, and ~9%, respectively, without Zn2+ and HisTags to ~100%, ~83%, and ~75% with Zn2+ and HisTags. These three proteins were continuously released in immunoreactive form over seven to ten weeks to 73%–100% complete release, and GM‐CSF showed bioactivity >95% relative to immunoreactive protein throughout the release interval. Increased encapsulation efficiencies were also found with other divalent transition metals ions (Co2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, and Zn2+), but not with Ca2+. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid was found to interfere with this process, reverting encapsulation efficiency back to Zn2+‐free levels. These results indicate that M2+‐immobilized self‐healing microspheres can be prepared for simple and efficient encapsulation by simple mixing in aqueous solutions. These formulations provide slow and continuous release of immunoreactive proteins of diverse types by using a amount of protein (e.g., <10 μg), which may be highly useful in the discovery and early preclinical development phase of new protein active pharmaceutical ingredients, allowing for improved translation to further development of potent proteins for local delivery.

Abstract
MicroRNAs let-7c and let-7f, two members of the let-7 family, were involved in regulating osteoblast differentiation and have an important role in bone formation. Let-7e-5p, which also belonged to the let-7 family, presented in the differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells and mouse embryonic stem cells. However, the role of let-7e-5p in osteoblast differentiation was unclear. Thus, this study aimed to elucidate the function of let-7e-5p in osteoblast differentiation and its mechanism. Firstly, we found that the let-7e-5p mimic promoted osteoblast differentiation but not the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells by positively regulating the expression levels of osteogenic-associated genes (RUNX2, OCN, OPN, and OSX), the activity of ALP, and formation of mineralized nodules. Moreover, we ascertained that the let-7e-5p mimic downregulated the post-transcriptional expression of SOCS1 by specifically binding to the 3′ untranslated region of SOCS1 mRNA. Also, let-7e-5p-induced SOCS1 downregulation increased the protein levels of p-STAT5 and IGF-1, which were both modulated by SOCS1 molecules. Furthermore, let-7e-5p abrogated the inhibition of osteogenic differentiation mediated by SOCS1 overexpression. Therefore, these results suggested that let-7e-5p regulated the differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells through the JAK2/STAT5 pathway to upregulate IGF-1 gene expression by inhibiting SOCS1. These findings may provide a new insight into the regulatory role of let-7e-5p in osteogenic differentiation and imply the existence of a novel mechanism underlying let-7e-5p-mediated osteogenic differentiation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To prepare the human bone morphogenetic protein-2(hBMP-2)/human insulin-like growth factor-1(hIGF-1)coating titanium(Ti)and assess its performance as a dental implant material. METHODS hBMP-2 and hIGF-1 were coated to the smooth surface of a Ti plate, and its efficacy for promoting bone formation and bone integration was compared with a pristine Ti plate.The surface characteristics of the metal samples were evaluated using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and by contact angle measurement.MG63 cells were seeded on the surface of the Ti plates, and MTT assay and alizarin red staining was used to examine the cell proliferation and formation of calcified nodules, respectively.Alkaline phosphatase (ALP)secretion of the cells was examined with ELISA, and cellular expressions of osteocalcin and osteopontin were detected with Western blotting for assessing osteogenesis. RESULTS SEM examination showed that the surface of Ti with hBMP-2 and hIGF-1 coating presented with a radial pattern resembling snowflakes.The contact angles of non-coated Ti, hBMP-2-coated Ti, hIGF-1-coated, and hBMP-2/-hIGF-1-coated Ti samples were 83.2°, 54°, 56° and 54°, respectively.Compared with the non-coated Ti plate, the surface-modified Ti samples showed a significantly smaller contact angle (P=0.032, 0.029, and 0.028), indicating a good hydrophilicity of the samples.MTT assay showed that MG63 cells grew well on the surface of the coated Ti plates.The hBMP-2/IGF-1 coating significantly induced cellular secretion of ALP(P=0.021, 0.014)and obviously promoted osteogenesis of MG63 cells (P < 0.05).Western blotting results showed that hBMP-2/IGF-1 coating significantly enhanced the expressions of osteocalcin and osteopontin in the seeded cells (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION hBMP-2 and hIGF-1 coating of Ti material can promote osteogenesis of the cells seeded on its surface to improve the performance of such Ti material as dental implants.

Abstract
Patients who sustain peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are often left with debilitating sensory and motor loss. Presently, there is a lack of clinically available therapeutics that can be given as an adjunct to surgical repair to enhance the regenerative process. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) represents a promising therapeutic target to meet this need, given its well-described trophic and anti-apoptotic effects on neurons, Schwann cells (SCs), and myocytes. Here, we review the literature regarding the therapeutic potential of IGF-1 in PNI. We appraised the literature for the various approaches of IGF-1 administration with the aim of identifying which are the most promising in offering a pathway toward clinical application. We also sought to determine the optimal reported dosage ranges for the various delivery approaches that have been investigated.

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.

The Role of GH/IGF Axis in Dento-Alveolar Complex from Development to Aging and Therapeutics: A Narrative Review. Cells 2021; 10:cells10051181. [PMID: 34066078 PMCID: PMC8150312 DOI: 10.3390/cells10051181] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2021] [Revised: 05/02/2021] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The GH/IGF axis is a major regulator of bone formation and resorption and is essential to the achievement of normal skeleton growth and homeostasis. Beyond its key role in bone physiology, the GH/IGF axis has also major pleiotropic endocrine and autocrine/paracrine effects on mineralized tissues throughout life. This article aims to review the literature on GH, IGFs, IGF binding proteins, and their respective receptors in dental tissues, both epithelium (enamel) and mesenchyme (dentin, pulp, and tooth-supporting periodontium). The present review re-examines and refines the expression of the elements of the GH/IGF axis in oral tissues and their in vivo and in vitro mechanisms of action in different mineralizing cell types of the dento-alveolar complex including ameloblasts, odontoblasts, pulp cells, cementoblasts, periodontal ligament cells, and jaw osteoblasts focusing on cell-specific activities. Together, these data emphasize the determinant role of the GH/IGF axis in physiological and pathological development, morphometry, and aging of the teeth, the periodontium, and oral bones in humans, rodents, and other vertebrates. These advancements in oral biology have elicited an enormous interest among investigators to translate the fundamental discoveries on the GH/IGF axis into innovative strategies for targeted oral tissue therapies with local treatments, associated or not with materials, for orthodontics and the repair and regeneration of the dento-alveolar complex and oral bones.
