RESUMO
Balancing osteoblast-osteoclast (OB-OC) cross-talk is crucial for restoring bone tissue structure and function. Current clinical drugs targeting either osteogenesis or osteoclastogenesis fail to effectively regulate cross-talk, impeding efficient bone repair in osteoporosis patients. Ubiquitin-specific protease 26 (USP26) is shown to coordinate OB-OC cross-talk by independently regulating ß-catenin and Iκb-α. However, effective drugs for activating USP26 are still lacking. Here, they constructed bone homeostasis repair microcarriers (BHRC) that encapsulate Usp26 mRNA-loaded lipid nanoparticles (mRNA@LNP) within MMPs-responsive GelMA hydrogel microspheres. These microcarriers target the osteoporotic microenvironment and regulate OB-OC cross-talk, thereby facilitating intervertebral fusion in osteoporotic rats. Results demonstrate that mRNA@LNP exhibits uniform particle size and high transfection efficiency, while GelMA hydrogel microspheres possess excellent biocompatibility and MMP responsiveness, providing favorable cell survival space and controllable release of mRNA@LNP. The released LNP upregulates USP26 protein expression, effectively promoting osteogenesis while suppressing osteoclast formation. In vivo experiments show that injecting BHRC into the defect site of intervertebral discs in osteoporotic rats significantly promotes tail vertebrae fusion by responding to the microenvironment and regulating cell-to-cell cross-talk. Thus, the BHRC holds great potential in regulating osteoporotic homeostasis, particularly in challenging bone defects such as intervertebral fusion in osteoporotic environments.
RESUMO
After rotator cuff injuries, uncontrolled inflammation hinders tendon-bone junction regeneration and induces scar formation in situ. Therefore, precisely controlling inflammation could be a solution to accelerate tendon-bone junction regeneration. In this study, we synthesized a peptide-metal ion complex hydrogel with thermosensitive capability that can be used as a hydrogel chemical regulator. By the coordination complex between Mg2+ and BMP-12, the free and coordinated Mg2+ can be programmability released from the hydrogel. The fast release of free Mg2+ can prevent inflammation at the early stage of injuries, according to the results of RT-qPCR and immunofluorescence staining. Then, the coordinated Mg2+ was slowly released from the hydrogel and provided an anti-inflammatory environment for tendon-bone junction regeneration in the long term. Finally, the hydrogel demonstrated enhanced therapeutic effects in a rat rotator cuff tear model. Overall, the Mg2+/BMP-12 peptide-metal ion complex-based hydrogel effectively addresses the regenerative requirements of the tendon-bone junction across various stages by graded modulating inflammation.
RESUMO
Reactive astrogliosis is the main cause of secondary injury to the central nerves. Biomaterials can effectively suppress astrocyte activation, but the mechanism remains unclear. Herein, Differentially Expressed Genes (DEGs) are identified through whole transcriptome sequencing in a mouse model of spinal cord injury, revealing the VIM gene as a pivotal regulator in the reactive astrocytes. Moreover, DEGs are predominantly concentrated in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Based on these, 3D injectable electrospun short fibers are constructed to inhibit reactive astrogliosis. Histological staining and functional analysis indicated that fibers with unique 3D network spatial structures can effectively constrain the reactive astrocytes. RNA sequencing and single-cell sequencing results reveal that short fibers downregulate the expression of the VIM gene in astrocytes by modulating the "ECM receptor interaction" pathway, inhibiting the transcription of downstream Vimentin protein, and thereby effectively suppressing reactive astrogliosis. Additionally, fibers block the binding of Vimentin protein with inflammation-related proteins, downregulate the NF-κB signaling pathway, inhibit neuron apoptosis, and consequently promote the recovery of spinal cord neural function. Through mechanism elucidation-material design-feedback regulation, this study provides a detailed analysis of the mechanism chain by which short fibers constrain the abnormal spatial expansion of astrocytes and promote spinal cord neural function.
RESUMO
Immune engineering, a burgeoning field within regenerative medicine, involves a spectrum of strategies to optimize the intricate interplay between tissue regenerative biomaterials and the host tissue. These strategies are applied across different types of biomaterials and various disease models, which encompasses finely modulating the immune response at the levels of immune cells and factors, aiming to mitigate adverse effects like fibrosis and persistent inflammation that may arise at the injury site and consequently promote tissue regeneration. With the continuous progress in electrospinning technology, the immunoregulatory capabilities of electrospun fibers have gained substantial attention over the years. Electrospun fibers, with their extracellular matrix-like characteristics, high surface-area-to-volume ratio, and reliable pharmaceutical compound capacity, have emerged as key players among tissue engineering materials. This review specifically focuses on the role of electrospun fiber-based immune engineering, emphasizing their unique design strategies. Notably, electrospinning actively engages in immune engineering by modulating immune responses through four essential strategies: (i) surface modification, (ii) drug loading, (iii) physicochemical parameters, and (iv) biological grafting. This review presents a comprehensive overview of the intricate mechanisms of the immune system in injured tissues while unveiling the key strategies adopted by electrospun fibers to orchestrate immune regulation. Furthermore, the review explores the current developmental trends and limitations concerning the immunoregulatory function of electrospun fibers, aiming to drive the advancements in electrospun fiber-based immune engineering to its full potential.
RESUMO
Irregular bone defects, characterized by unpredictable size, shape, and depth, pose a major challenge to clinical treatment. Although various bone grafts are available, none can fully meet the repair needs of the defective area. Here, this study fabricates a dough-type hydrogel (DR-Net), in which the first dynamic network is generated by coordination between thiol groups and silver ions, thereby possessing kneadability to adapt to various irregular bone defects. The second rigid covalent network is formed through photocrosslinking, maintaining the osteogenic space under external forces and achieving a better match with the bone regeneration process. In vitro, an irregular alveolar bone defect is established in the fresh porcine mandible, and the dough-type hydrogel exhibits outstanding shape adaptability, perfectly matching the morphology of the bone defect. After photocuring, the storage modulus of the hydrogel increases 8.6 times, from 3.7 kPa (before irradiation) to 32 kPa (after irradiation). Furthermore, this hydrogel enables effective loading of P24 peptide, which potently accelerates bone repair in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats with critical calvarial defects. Overall, the dough-type hydrogel with kneadability, space-maintaining capability, and osteogenic activity exhibits exceptional potential for clinical translation in treating irregular bone defects.
RESUMO
Nasal administration can bypass the blood-brain barrier and directly deliver drugs to the brain, providing a non-invasive route for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. Inspired by the appearance that a gate can block the outside world and the characteristics of the sol-gel transition can form a "gate" in the nasal cavity, a Drop to Gate nasal drop (DGND) is designed to set a gate in nose, which achieves protecting role from the influence of nasal environment. The DGND demonstrates the efficiency and application prospect of delivering drugs to the brain through the N-to-B. The effective concentration of single administration is increased through the hydrophobic interaction between C8-GelMA and SRT1720 (SA), and then cross-linked under UV to form nanogel, which can respond to MMP in the inflammatory microenvironment of sepsis-induced cognitive dysfunction. Finally, the SA/nanogel is compounded into the thermogel, which can respond to the nasal cavity temperature to form DGND in situ, increasing the residence time and delivery efficiency of drugs in the nasal cavity. In vitro, the DGND alleviates lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced BV2 inflammation. In vivo, DGND effectively targets the nasal mucosa and deliver drugs to the brain, which activate Sirt1 to alleviate inflammation mediated by microglia and improve cognitive dysfunction in sepsis mice.
RESUMO
The treatment of osteoporotic bone defects poses a challenge due to the degradation of the skeletal vascular system and the disruption of local bone metabolism within the osteoporotic microenvironment. However, it is feasible to modulate the disrupted local bone metabolism imbalance through enhanced vascularization, a theory termed "vascularization-bone metabolic balance". This study developed a 3D-printed polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold modified with EPLQLKM and SVVYGLR peptides (PCL-SE). The EPLQLKM peptide attracts bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), while the SVVYGLR peptide enhances endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) vascular differentiation, thus regulating bone metabolism and fostering bone regeneration through the paracrine effects of EPCs. Further mechanistic research demonstrated that PCL-SE promoted the vascularization of EPCs, activating the Notch signaling pathway in BMSCs, leading to the upregulation of osteogenesis-related genes and the downregulation of osteoclast-related genes, thereby restoring bone metabolic balance. Furthermore, PCL-SE facilitated the differentiation of EPCs into "H"-type vessels and the recruitment of BMSCs to synergistically enhance osteogenesis, resulting in the regeneration of normal microvessels and bone tissues in cases of femoral condylar bone defects in osteoporotic SD rats. This study suggests that PCL-SE supports in-situ vascularization, remodels bone metabolic translational balance, and offers a promising therapeutic regimen for osteoporotic bone defects.

Targeted and immunotherapy combined with interventional therapy can improve the prognosis of advanced cancer patients, and it has become a hot spot to find the new therapeutic schemes, but most of which are not satisfactory. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed in PDX mouse models with or without TCC therapy. 2-'O-Methylation modification and multiplex immunofluorescence staining were used to explore the function and mechanism of SAMD4B in the immune context of HCC. Here, we propose for the first time a synergistic immunochemotherapy that exerts a potent antitumour effect for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in clinical practice based on three common antitumour drugs and found that HCC patients with new synergistic immunochemotherapy had better three-year overall survival (p = 0.004) and significantly higher survival ratio (increased by 2.3 times) than the control group. We further reveal the immunoregulatory mechanism of synergistic immunochemotherapy through 2'-O-Methylation modification mediated by SAMD4B, a tumour suppressor gene. Mechanistically, SAMD4B, increased by the reduced mutations of upstream genes NOTCH1 and NOTCH2, affected the instability of APOA2 mRNA by 2-'O-Methylation modification of the C-terminus. The decreased APOA2 further attenuated programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) level with a direct interaction pattern. The high-SAMD4B tumour tissues contained fewer native CD29+CD8+ T cells, which improved immune microenvironment to achieve the effect of antitumour effect. Overall, we developed a potent synergistic immunochemotherapy strategy that exerts an efficient anti-HCC effect inducing SAMD4B-APOA2-PD-L1 axis to inhibit tumour immune evasion.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) engages in regulatory interactions with cell surface receptors through its constituent proteins and polysaccharides. Therefore, nano-sized extracellular matrix conjugated with doxorubicin (DOX) is utilized to produce extracellular matrix-drug conjugates (ECM-DOX) tailored for targeted delivery to cancer cells. The ECM-DOX nanoparticles exhibit rod-like morphology, boasting a commendable drug loading capacity of 4.58%, coupled with acid-sensitive drug release characteristics. Notably, ECM-DOX nanoparticles enhance the uptake by tumor cells and possess the ability to penetrate endothelial cells and infiltrate tumor multicellular spheroids. Mechanistic insights reveal that the internalization of ECM-DOX nanoparticle is facilitated through clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis, intricately involving hyaluronic acid receptors and integrins. Pharmacokinetic assessments unveil a prolonged blood half-life of ECM-DOX nanoparticles at 3.65 h, a substantial improvement over the 1.09 h observed for free DOX. A sustained accumulation effect of ECM-DOX nanoparticles at tumor sites, with drug levels in tumor tissues surpassing those of free DOX by several-fold. The profound therapeutic impact of ECM-DOX nanoparticles is evident in their notable inhibition of tumor growth, extension of median survival time in animals, and significant reduction in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. The ECM platform emerges as a promising carrier for avant-garde nanomedicines in the realm of cancer treatment.
RESUMO
Excessive cell-free DNA (cfDNA) can induce chronic inflammation by activating intracellular nucleic acid sensors. Intervention in cfDNA-mediated "pro-inflammatory signaling transduction" could be a potential alleviating strategy for chronic inflammation, such as in diabetic wounds. However, effectively and specifically downgrading cfDNA concentration in the pathological microenvironment remains a challenge. Therefore, this work prepares free-standing polydopamine nanosheets through DNA-guided assembly and loaded them into microfluidic hydrogel microspheres. The πâπ stacking/hydrogen bonding interactions between polydopamine nanosheets and the π-rich bases of cfDNA, along with the cage-like spatial confinement created by the hydrogel polymer network, achieved cfDNA capture and storage, respectively. Catechol in polydopamine nanosheets can also assist in reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels. Efficient cfDNA binding independent of serum proteins, specific interdiction of abnormal activation of cfDNA-associated toll-like receptor 9, as well as down-regulation of inflammatory cytokines and ROS levels are shown in this system. The chronic inflammation alleviating and the pro-healing effects on the mice model with diabetic wounds are also investigated. This work presents a new strategy for capturing and storing cfDNA to intervene in cell signaling transduction. It also offers new insights into the regulatory mechanisms between inflammatory mediators and biomaterials in inflammation-related diseases.

Inspired by the imbalance between extrinsic and intrinsic tendon healing, this study fabricated a new biofilter scaffold with a hierarchical structure based on a melt electrowriting technique. The outer multilayered fibrous structure with connected porous characteristics provides a novel passageway for vascularization and isolates the penetration of scar fibers, which can be referred to as a biofilter process. In vitro experiments found that the porous architecture in the outer layer can effectively prevent cell infiltration, whereas the aligned fibers in the inner layer can promote cell recruitment and growth, as well as the expression of tendon-associated proteins in a simulated friction condition. It was shown in vivo that the biofilter process could promote tendon healing and reduce scar invasion. Herein, this novel strategy indicates great potential to design new biomaterials for balancing extrinsic and intrinsic healing and realizing scarless tendon healing.
RESUMO
Procalcitonin (PCT) serves as a crucial biomarker utilized in diverse clinical contexts, including sepsis diagnosis and emergency departments. Its applications extend to identifying pathogens, assessing infection severity, guiding drug administration, and implementing theranostic strategies. However, current clinical deployed methods cannot meet the needs for accurate or real-time quantitative monitoring of PCT. This review aims to introduce these emerging PCT immunoassay technologies, focusing on analyzing their advantages in improving detection performances, such as easy operation and high precision. The fundamental principles and characteristics of state-of-the-art methods are first introduced, including chemiluminescence, immunofluorescence, latex-enhanced turbidity, enzyme-linked immunosorbent, colloidal gold immunochromatography, and radioimmunoassay. Then, improved methods using new materials and new technologies are briefly described, for instance, the combination with responsive nanomaterials, Raman spectroscopy, and digital microfluidics. Finally, the detection performance parameters of these methods and the clinical importance of PCT detection are also discussed.
RESUMO
Efferocytosis-mediated inflammatory reversal plays a crucial role in bone repairing process. However, in refractory bone defects, the macrophage continual efferocytosis may be suppressed due to the disrupted microenvironment homeostasis, particularly the loss of apoptotic signals and overactivation of intracellular oxidative stress. In this study, a polydopamine-coated short fiber matrix containing biomimetic "apoptotic signals" to reconstruct the microenvironment and reactivate macrophage continual efferocytosis for inflammatory reversal and bone defect repair is presented. The "apoptotic signals" (AM/CeO2) are prepared using CeO2 nanoenzymes with apoptotic neutrophil membrane coating for macrophage recognition and oxidative stress regulation. Additionally, a short fiber "biomimetic matrix" is utilized for loading AM/CeO2 signals via abundant adhesion sites involving π-π stacking and hydrogen bonding interactions. Ultimately, the implantable apoptosis-mimetic nanoenzyme/short-fiber matrixes (PFS@AM/CeO2), integrating apoptotic signals and biomimetic matrixes, are constructed to facilitate inflammatory reversal and reestablish the pro-efferocytosis microenvironment. In vitro and in vivo data indicate that the microenvironment biomimetic short fibers can activate macrophage continual efferocytosis, leading to the suppression of overactivated inflammation. The enhanced repair of rat femoral defect further demonstrates the osteogenic potential of the pro-efferocytosis strategy. It is believed that the regulation of macrophage efferocytosis through microenvironment biomimetic materials can provide a new perspective for tissue repair.

By integrating magnetic resonance-visible components with scaffold materials, hydrogel microspheres (HMs) become visible under magnetic resonance imaging(MRI), allowing for non-invasive, continuous, and dynamic monitoring of the distribution, degradation, and relationship of the HMs with local tissues. However, when these visualization components are physically blended into the HMs, it reduces their relaxation rate and specificity under MRI, weakening the efficacy of real-time dynamic monitoring. To achieve MRI-guided in vivo monitoring of HMs with tissue repair functionality, we utilized airflow control and photo-crosslinking methods to prepare alginate-gelatin-based dual-network hydrogel microspheres (G-AlgMA HMs) using gadolinium ions (Gd (III)), a paramagnetic MRI contrast agent, as the crosslinker. When the network of G-AlgMA HMs degrades, the cleavage of covalent bonds causes the release of Gd (III), continuously altering the arrangement and movement characteristics of surrounding water molecules. This change in local transverse and longitudinal relaxation times results in variations in MRI signal values, thus enabling MRI-guided in vivo monitoring of the HMs. Additionally, in vivo data show that the degradation and release of polypeptide (K2 (SL)6 K2 (KK)) from G-AlgMA HMs promote local vascular regeneration and soft tissue repair. Overall, G-AlgMA HMs enable non-invasive, dynamic in vivo monitoring of biomaterial degradation and tissue regeneration through MRI, which is significant for understanding material degradation mechanisms, evaluating biocompatibility, and optimizing material design.

Enhancing the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for endometrial regeneration is challenging, due to its limited mechanical properties and burst release of growth factors. Here, we proposed an injectable interpenetrating dual-network hydrogel that can locationally activate PRP within the uterine cavity, sustained release growth factors and further address the insufficient therapeutic efficacy. Locational activation of PRP is achieved using the dual-network hydrogel. The phenylboronic acid (PBA) modified methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) dispersion chelates Ca2+ by carboxy groups and polyphenol groups, and in situ crosslinked with PRP-loaded polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) dispersion by dynamic borate ester bonds thus establishing the soft hydrogel. Subsequently, in situ photo-crosslinking technology is employed to enhance the mechanical performance of hydrogels by initiating free radical polymerization of carbon-carbon double bonds to form a dense network. The PRP-hydrogel significantly promoted the endometrial cell proliferation, exhibited strong pro-angiogenic effects, and down-regulated the expression of collagen deposition genes by inhibiting the TGF-ß1-SMAD2/3 pathway in vitro. In vivo experiments using a rat intrauterine adhesion (IUA) model showed that the PRP-hydrogel significantly promoted endometrial regeneration and restored uterine functionality. Furthermore, rats treated with the PRP-hydrogel displayed an increase in the number of embryos, litter size, and birth rate, which was similar to normal rats. Overall, this injectable interpenetrating dual-network hydrogel, capable of locational activation of PRP, suggests a new therapeutic approach for endometrial repair.

The organelle network is a key factor in the repair and regeneration of lesion. However, effectively intervening in the organelle network which has complex interaction mechanisms is challenging. In this study, on the basis of electromagnetic laws, we constructed a biomaterial-based physical/chemical restraint device. This device was designed to jointly constrain electrical and biological factors in a conductive screw-threaded microneedle (ST-needle) system, identifying dual positioning regulation of the organelle network. The unique physical properties of this system could accurately locate the lesion and restrict the current path to the lesion cells through electromagnetic laws, and dynamic Van der Waals forces were activated to release functionalized hydrogel microspheres. Subsequently, the mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) complex was synergistically targeted by increasing mitochondrial ATP supply to the ER via electrical stimulation and by blocking calcium current from the ER to the mitochondria using microspheres, and then the life activity of the lesion cells was effectively restored.

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) seriously impede diabetic wound healing. The disruption or scavenging of NETs using deoxyribonuclease (DNase) or cationic nanoparticles has been limited by liberating trapped bacteria, short half-life, or potential cytotoxicity. In this study, a positive correlation between the NETs level in diabetic wound exudation and the severity of wound inflammation in diabetic patients is established. Novel NETs scavenging bio-based hydrogel microspheres 'micro-cage', termed mPDA-PEI@GelMA, is engineered by integrating methylacrylyl gelatin (GelMA) hydrogel microspheres with cationic polyethyleneimine (PEI)-functionalized mesoporous polydopamine (mPDA). This unique 'micro-cage' construct is designed to non-contact scavenge of NETs between nanoparticles and the diabetic wound surface, minimizing biological toxicity and ensuring high biosafety. NETs are introduced into 'micro-cage' along with wound exudation, and cationic mPDA-PEI immobilizes them inside the 'micro-cage' through a strong binding affinity to the cfDNA web structure. The findings demonstrate that mPDA-PEI@GelMA effectively mitigates pro-inflammatory responses associated with diabetic wounds by scavenging NETs both in vivo and in vitro. This work introduces a novel nanoparticle non-contact NETs scavenging strategy to enhance diabetic wound healing processes, with potential benefits in clinical applications.
