Effect of Valproic Acid on Promoting the Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells Into Cholangiocyte-Like Cells.

Cholangiocytes form a complex 3D network of bile ducts in the liver and contribute to liver function. The damage or destruction of cholangiocytes can lead to biliary diseases, and the shortage of cholangiocytes remains an obstacle for drug development targeting biliary diseases. Valproic acid (VPA) is a potent activator of Notch signaling pathway that is essential for cholangiocyte differentiation. Here, we report a VPA-based approach for cholangiocyte differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells. VPA activated Notch2 expression and upregulated HES-1, HEY-1, and Sox9 gene expression in hESC-derived hepatoblast. After 7 days treatment, VPA promoted successful differentiation of hepatoblast into cholangiocytes expressing cholangiocyte marker genes (AE2, AQP1, CFTR) and proteins (CK19 and CK7). In addition, the differentiated cholangiocytes formed bile duct-like structures after implantation into the spleen of NOD/SCID mice. Our results suggested that VPA can promote hESC differentiation to cholangiocyte-like cells. The induced cholangiocytes may serve as a potential cell source for both in vitro modeling and regenerative therapy of cholangiopathies. The findings can also support further development of small-molecule based differentiation protocols for cholangiocyte production.

Microneedle system for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Global increasing demand for high life quality and length facilitates the development of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, which apply multidisciplinary theories and techniques to achieve the structural reconstruction and functional recovery of disordered or damaged tissues and organs. However, the clinical performances of adopted drugs, materials, and powerful cells in the laboratory are inescapably limited by the currently available technologies. To tackle the problems, versatile microneedles are developed as the new platform for local delivery of diverse cargos with minimal invasion. The efficient delivery, as well as painless and convenient procedure endow microneedles with good patient compliance in clinic. In this review, we first categorize different microneedle systems and delivery models, and then summarize their applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine mainly involving maintenance and rehabilitation of damaged tissues and organs. In the end, we discuss the advantages, challenges, and prospects of microneedles in depth for future clinical translations.

Stem cell-derived hepatocyte therapy using versatile biomimetic nanozyme incorporated nanofiber-reinforced decellularized extracellular matrix hydrogels for the treatment of acute liver failure.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-associated oxidative stress, inflammation storm, and massive hepatocyte necrosis are the typical manifestations of acute liver failure (ALF), therefore specific therapeutic interventions are essential for the devastating disease. Here, we developed a platform consisting of versatile biomimetic copper oxide nanozymes (Cu NZs)-loaded PLGA nanofibers (Cu NZs@PLGA nanofibers) and decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) hydrogels for delivery of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells-derived hepatocyte-like cells (hADMSCs-derived HLCs) (HLCs/Cu NZs@fiber/dECM). Cu NZs@PLGA nanofibers could conspicuously scavenge excessive ROS at the early stage of ALF, and reduce the massive accumulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines, herein efficiently preventing the deterioration of hepatocytes necrosis. Moreover, Cu NZs@PLGA nanofibers also exhibited a cytoprotection effect on the transplanted HLCs. Meanwhile, HLCs with hepatic-specific biofunctions and anti-inflammatory activity acted as a promising alternative cell source for ALF therapy. The dECM hydrogels further provided the desirable 3D environment and favorably improved the hepatic functions of HLCs. In addition, the pro-angiogenesis activity of Cu NZs@PLGA nanofibers also facilitated the integration of the whole implant with the host liver. Hence, HLCs/Cu NZs@fiber/dECM performed excellent synergistic therapeutic efficacy on ALF mice. This strategy using Cu NZs@PLGA nanofiber-reinforced dECM hydrogels for HLCs in situ delivery is a promising approach for ALF therapy and shows great potential for clinical translation.

Oral Delivery of Bioactive Glass-Loaded Core-Shell Hydrogel Microspheres for Effective Treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Resolving inflammation and promoting intestinal tissue regeneration are critical for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment. Bioactive glass (BG) is a clinically approved bone graft material and has been shown to modulate inflammatory response, but it is unknown whether BG can be applied to treat IBD. Here, it is reported that BG attenuates pro-inflammatory response of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated macrophages and hence reduces inflammatory damage to intestinal organoids in vitro. In addition, zein/sodium alginate-based core-shell microspheres (Zein/SA/BG) are developed for oral delivery of BG, which helps prevent premature dissolution of BG in the stomach. The results show that Zein/SA/BG protects BG from a gastric-simulated environment while dissolved in an intestinal-simulated environment. When administered to acute and chronic colitis mice model, Zein/SA/BG significantly reduces intestinal inflammation, promotes epithelial tissue regeneration, and partially restores microbiota homeostasis. These findings are the first to reveal the therapeutic efficacy of BG against IBD, which may provide a new therapeutic approach at low cost for effective IBD treatment.

One-stop assembly of adherent 3D retinal organoids from hiPSCs based on 3D-printed derived PDMS microwell platform.

The three-dimensional (3D) retinal organoids (ROs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs), mimicking the growth and development of the human retina, is a promising model for investigating inherited retinal diseasesin vitro. However, the efficient generation of homogenous ROs remains a challenge. Here we introduce a novel polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microwell platform containing 62 V-bottom micro-cavities for the ROs differentiation from hiPSCs. The uniform adherent 3D ROs could spontaneously form using neural retina (NR) induction. Our results showed that the complex of NR (expressing VSX2), ciliary margin (CM) (expressing RDH10), and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) (expressing ZO-1, MITF, and RPE65) developed in the PDMS microwell after the differentiation. It is important to note that ROs in PDMS microwell platforms not only enable one-stop assembly but also maintain homogeneity and mature differentiation over a period of more than 25 weeks without the use of BMP4 and Matrigel. Retinal ganglion cells (expressing BRN3a), amacrine cells (expressing AP2a), horizontal cells (expressing PROX1 and AP2α), photoreceptor cells for cone (expressing S-opsin and L/M-opsin) and rod (expressing Rod opsin), bipolar cells (expressing VSX2 and PKCα), and Müller glial cells (expressing GS and Sox9) gradually emerged. Furthermore, we replaced fetal bovine serum with human platelet lysate and established a xeno-free culture workflow that facilitates clinical application. Thus, our PDMS microwell platform for one-stop assembly and long-term culture of ROs using a xeno-free workflow is favorable for retinal disease modeling, drug screening, and manufacturing ROs for clinical translation.

Establishment of iPS cell line (KLRMMEi003-A) from a patient with Usher syndrome due to USH2A mutation.

We generated an induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell line by reprogramming peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with Usher syndrome type II carrying USH2A gene mutation (c.8559-2A > G). The iPS cell line with confirmed patient-specific point mutation exhibited typical iPS cell characteristics and maintained a normal karyotype. It can be used as 2D and 3D models to investigate the underlying pathogenic mechanism and lay a solid foundation for future personalized therapy.

Injectable bioactive glass/sodium alginate hydrogel with immunomodulatory and angiogenic properties for enhanced tendon healing.

Tendon healing is a complex process involving inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, eventually achieving a state of hypocellularity and hypovascularity. Currently, few treatments can satisfactorily restore the structure and function of native tendon. Bioactive glass (BG) has been shown to possess immunomodulatory and angiogenic properties. In this study, we investigated whether an injectable hydrogel fabricated of BG and sodium alginate (SA) could be applied to enhance tenogenesis following suture repair of injured tendon. We demonstrated that BG/SA hydrogel significantly accelerated tenogenesis without inducing heterotopic ossification based on histological analysis. The therapeutic effect could attribute to increased angiogenesis and M1 to M2 phenotypic switch of macrophages within 7 days post-surgery. Morphological characterization demonstrated that BG/SA hydrogel partially reverted the pathological changes of Achilles tendon, including increased length and cross-sectional area (CSA). Finally, biomechanical test showed that BG/SA hydrogel significantly improved ultimate load, failure stress, and tensile modulus of the repaired tendon. In conclusion, administration of an injectable BG/SA hydrogel can be a novel and promising therapeutic approach to augment Achilles tendon healing in conjunction with surgical intervention.

Bioactive glass-elicited stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles regulate M2 macrophage polarization and angiogenesis to improve tendon regeneration and functional recovery.

Effective countermeasures for tendon injury remains unsatisfactory. Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs)-based therapy via regulation of Mφ-mediated angiogenesis has emerged as a promising strategy for tissue regeneration. Still, approaches to tailor the functions of EVs to treat tendon injuries have been limited. We reported a novel strategy by applying MSC-EVs boosted with bioactive glasses (BG). BG-elicited EVs (EVB) showed up-regulation of medicinal miRNAs, including miR-199b-3p and miR-125a-5p, which play a pivotal role in M2 Mφ-mediated angiogenesis. EVB accelerated angiogenesis via the reprogrammed anti-inflammatory M2 Mφs compared with naïve MSC-EVs (EVN). In rodent Achilles tendon rupture model, EVB local administration activated anti-inflammatory responses via M2 polarization and led to a spatial correlation between M2 Mφs and newly formed blood vessels. Our results showed that EVB outperformed EVN in promoting tenogenesis and in reducing detrimental morphological changes without causing heterotopic ossification. Biomechanical test revealed that EVB significantly improved ultimate load, stiffness, and tensile modulus of the repaired tendon, along with a positive correlation between M2/M1 ratio and biomechanical properties. On the basis of the boosted nature to reprogram regenerative microenvironment, EVB holds considerable potential to be developed as a next-generation therapeutic modality for enhancing functional regeneration to achieve satisfying tendon regeneration.

Highly efficient fabrication of functional hepatocyte spheroids by a magnetic system for the rescue of acute liver failure.

Engineering hepatocytes as multicellular cell spheroids can improve their viability after implantation in vivo for effective rescue of the devastating acute liver failure (ALF). However, there is still a lack of straightforward methods for efficient generation of functional hepatocyte spheroids. In this study, a magnetic system, consisting of magnetic microwell arrays and magnet blocks, is developed to realize magnetically controlled 3D cell capture and spatial confinement-mediated cell aggregation. The cell spheroids with smaller size show superior hepatic functions than the larger-sized counterparts. Notably, the intrinsic magnetism of magnetic microwell arrays can regulate superoxide anions in hepatocyte spheroids and herein promote various biological processes, including antioxidation, hepatocyte-related functions, and pro-angiogenic potential. Ectopic implantation of the functional cell spheroids in ALF-challenged mice significantly prolongs the animal survival, ameliorates inflammation, and promotes liver regeneration. Hence, application of the magnetic system for generation of functionally enhanced hepatocyte spheroids holds great potential for clinical translation in the future.

Implantable 3D Printed Hydrogel Scaffolds Loading Copper-Doxorubicin Complexes for Postoperative Chemo/Chemodynamic Therapy.

Biomaterial-based implants hold great potential for postoperative cancer treatment due to the enhanced drug dosage at the disease site and decreased systemic toxicity. However, the elaborate design of implants to avoid complicated chemical modification and burst release remains challenging. Herein, we report a three-dimensional (3D) printed hydrogel scaffold to enable sustained release of drugs for postoperative synergistic cancer therapy. The hydrogel scaffold is composed of Pluronic F127 and sodium alginate (SA) as well as doxorubicin (DOX) and copper ions (F127-SA/Cu-DOX hydrogel scaffold). Benefiting from the coordination of Cu(II) with both SA and DOX, burst release of DOX can be overcome, and prolonged release time can be achieved. The therapeutic efficiency can be adjusted by altering the amount of DOX and Cu(II) in the scaffolds. Moreover, apoptosis and ferroptosis of cancer cells can be induced through the combination of chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy. In addition, DOX supplies excess hydrogen peroxide to enhance the efficiency of Cu-based chemodynamic therapy. When implanted in the resection site, hydrogel scaffolds effectively inhibit tumor growth. Overall, this study may offer a new strategy for fabricating local implants with synergistic therapeutic performance for preventing postoperative cancer recurrence.

Sirt3 mediates the benefits of exercise on bone in aged mice.

Exercise in later life is important for bone health and delays the progression of osteoporotic bone loss. Osteocytes are the major bone cells responsible for transforming mechanical stimuli into cellular signals through their highly specialized lacunocanalicular networks (LCN). Osteocyte activity and LCN degenerate with aging, thus might impair the effectiveness of exercise on bone health; however, the underlying mechanism and clinical implications remain elusive. Herein, we showed that deletion of Sirt3 in osteocytes could impair the formation of osteocyte dendritic processes and inhibit bone gain in response to exercise in vivo. Mechanistic studies revealed that Sirt3 regulates E11/gp38 through the protein kinase A (PKA)/cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) signaling pathway. Additionally, the Sirt3 activator honokiol enhanced the sensitivity of osteocytes to fluid shear stress in vitro, and intraperitoneal injection of honokiol reduced bone loss in aged mice in a dose-dependent manner. Collectively, Sirt3 in osteocytes regulates bone mass and mechanical responses through the regulation of E11/gp38. Therefore, targeting Sirt3 could be a novel therapeutic strategy to prevent age-related bone loss and augment the benefits of exercise on the senescent skeleton.

Self-intensified synergy of a versatile biomimetic nanozyme and doxorubicin on electrospun fibers to inhibit postsurgical tumor recurrence and metastasis.

Tumor-positive resection margins after surgery can result in tumor recurrence and metastasis. Although adjuvant postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy have been adopted in clinical practice, they lack efficacy and result in unavoidable side effects. Herein, a self-intensified in-situ therapy approach using electrospun fibers loaded with a biomimetic nanozyme and doxorubicin (DOX) is developed. The fabricated PEG-coated zeolite imidazole framework-67 (PZIF67) is demonstrated as a versatile nanozyme triggering reactions in cancer cells based on endogenous H2O2 and •O2-. The PZIF67-generated •OH induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) overload, implementing chemodynamic therapy (CDT). The O2 produced by PZIF67 inhibits the expression of hypoxia-up-regulated proteins, thereby suppressing tumor progression. PZIF67 also catalyzes the degradation of glutathione, further disturbing the intracellular redox homeostasis and enhancing CDT. Furthermore, the introduced DOX not only kills cancer cells individually, but also replenishes the continuously consumed substrates for PZIF67-catalyzed reactions. The PZIF67-weakened drug resistance strengthens the cytotoxicity of DOX. The combined application of PZIF67 and DOX also suppresses metastasis-associated genes. Both in vitro and in vivo results demonstrate that the self-intensified synergy of PZIF67 and DOX on electrospun fibers efficiently prevents postsurgical tumor recurrence and metastasis, offering a feasible therapeutic regimen for operable malignant tumors.

Efficient hepatic differentiation of hydrogel microsphere-encapsulated human pluripotent stem cells for engineering prevascularized liver tissue.

Liver tissue engineering is promising as an alternative strategy to treat liver failure. However, generating functional hepatocytes from stem cells is conventionally restricted by the immature status of differentiated cells. Besides, embedding hepatocytes in bulk scaffold is limited by a lack of vascularity and low cell-packing density. Here, we fabricate collagen type I (COL1) microspheres for efficient hepatic differentiation of pluripotent stem cells and subsequent assembly of prevascularized liver tissue (PLT). Using a microfluidic platform, we demonstrate that hydrogel COL1 microspheres (mCOL1) encapsulating human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can be reproducibly generated and efficiently differentiated into hepatocyte-like cells (HLCs) microspheres for the first time. Compared with other culture configurations such as encapsulation of hESC in a bulk COL1 hydrogel and 2D monolayer culture, mCOL1 with high uniformity produce HLC microspheres of improved maturity based on comprehensive analyses of cell morphology, transcriptome profile, hepatic marker expression and hepatic functions. In addition, these HLC microspheres can be applied as building blocks to self-assemble with endothelial cells to construct a dense PLT. The PLT resembles native liver tissue with high cell-packing density, shows successful engraftment in mice liver following implantation, and exhibits improved hepatic functionin vivo. Overall, it is believed that this multiscale technology will advance the fabrication of stem cell-based liver tissue for regenerative medicine, drug screening, andin vitroliver modeling.

Retinal organoids and microfluidic chip-based approaches to explore the retinitis pigmentosa with USH2A mutations.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a leading cause of vision impairment and blindness worldwide, with limited medical treatment options. USH2A mutations are one of the most common causes of non-syndromic RP. In this study, we developed retinal organoids (ROs) and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) of RP patient to establish a sustainable in vitro RP disease model. RT-qPCR, western blot, and immunofluorescent staining assessments showed that USH2A mutations induced apoptosis of iPSCs and ROs, and deficiency of the extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Transcriptomics and proteomics findings suggested that abnormal ECM-receptor interactions could result in apoptosis of ROs with USH2A mutations via the PI3K-Akt pathway. To optimize the culture conditions of ROs, we fabricated a microfluidic chip to co-culture the ROs with RPE cells. Our results showed that this perfusion system could efficiently improve the survival rate of ROs. Further, ECM components such as laminin and collagen IV of ROs in the RP group were upregulated compared with those maintained in static culture. These findings illustrate the potential of microfluidic chip combined with ROs technology in disease modelling for RP.

Generation of a gene-corrected human iPSC line (CSUASOi004-A-1) from a retinitis pigmentosa patient with heterozygous c.2699 G>A mutation in the PRPF6 gene.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is one of the most common inherited retinal diseases characterized by nyctalopia, progressive vision loss and visual field contraction. we previously generated an induced pluripotent stem cell line (CSUASOi004-A) from a RP patient with heterozygous PRPF6 c.2699 G>A (p.R900H) mutation. Here we corrected the PRPF6 c.2699 G>A mutation genetically using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to generate an isogenic control (CSUASOi004-A-1), which can provide a valuable resource in the research of the disease.

Sourcing of human peripheral blood-derived myeloid angiogenic cells under xeno-free conditions for the treatment of critical limb ischemia.

BACKGROUND: Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most severe form of peripheral artery disease and exhibits a high risk of lower extremity amputations. As even the most promising experimental approaches based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) demonstrated only moderate therapeutic effects, we hypothesized that other cell types with intrinsic roles in angiogenesis may exhibit a stronger therapeutic potential. We have previously established a protocol to source human peripheral blood-derived angiogenic cells (BDACs). These cells promoted revascularization and took perivascular location at sites of angiogenesis, thus resembling hematopoietic pericytes, which were only described in vivo so far. We thus hypothesized that BDACs might have a superior ability to promote revascularization and rescue the affected limb in CLI. METHODS: As standard BDAC sourcing techniques involve the use of animal-derived serum, we sought to establish a xeno- and/or serum-free protocol. Next, BDACs or MSCs were injected intramuscularly following the ligation of the iliac artery in a murine model. Their ability to enhance revascularization, impair necrosis and modulate inflammatory processes in the affected limb was investigated. Lastly, the secretomes of both cell types were compared to find potential indications for the observed differences in angiogenic potential. RESULTS: From the various commercial media tested, one xeno-free medium enabled the derivation of cells that resembled functional BDACs in comparable numbers. When applied to a murine model of CLI, both cell types enhanced limb reperfusion and reduced necrosis, with BDACs being twice as effective as MSCs. This was also reflected in histological evaluation, where BDAC-treated animals exhibited the least muscle tissue degeneration. The BDAC secretome was enriched in a larger number of proteins with pro-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory properties, suggesting that the combination of those factors may be responsible for the superior therapeutic effect. CONCLUSIONS: Functional BDACs can be sourced under xeno-free conditions paving the way for their safe clinical application. Since BDACs are derived from an easily accessible and renewable tissue, can be sourced in clinically relevant numbers and time frame and exceeded traditional MSCs in their therapeutic potential, they may represent an advantageous cell type for the treatment of CLI and other ischemic diseases.

Aberrant Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells Derived from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells of a Retinitis Pigmentosa Patient with the PRPF6 Mutation.

Pre-mRNA processing factors (PRPFs) are vital components of the spliceosome and are involved in the physiological process necessary for pre-mRNA splicing to mature mRNA. As an important member, PRPF6 mutation resulting in autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP) is not common. Recently, we reported the establishment of an induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs; CSUASOi004-A) model by reprogramming the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a PRPF6-related adRP patient, which could recapitulate a consistent disease-specific genotype. In this study, a disease model of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells was generated from the iPSCs of this patient to further investigate the underlying molecular and pathological mechanisms. The results showed the irregular morphology, disorganized apical microvilli and reduced expressions of RPE-specific genes in the patient's iPSC-derived RPE cells. In addition, RPE cells carrying the PRPF6 mutation displayed a decrease in the phagocytosis of fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled photoreceptor outer segments and exhibited impaired cell polarity and barrier function. This study will benefit the understanding of PRPF6-related RPE cells and future cell therapy.

Bovine serum albumin-gold nanoclusters protein corona stabilized polystyrene nanoparticles as dual-color fluorescent nanoprobes for breast cancer detection.

Breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy and the first leading cause of cancer-related mortality among the female population worldwide. Approaches for precise and reliable detection of breast cancer cells, particularly in the nascent state, are desperately needed for elevating the survival rate of patients bearing the breast tumor. In this work, we successfully performed the sensitive, precise, and reliable breast cancer cell detection using facilely fabricated bovine serum albumin-gold nanocluster (BSA-AuNCs) protein corona stabilized, epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) aptamer linked fluorescent polystyrene nanoparticle (PS NP), termed as PS-BSA-AuNCs-Apt. The rapidly adsorbed BSA-AuNCs hard protein corona without complicated covalent conjugation not only imparted excellent colloidal stability to the PS nanoparticles, but also offered numerous active anchors for the targeted EpCAM aptamers to locate. With the remarkable aid of the aptamers specifically targeting the EpCAM-positive breast cancer cells, the PS-BSA-AuNCs-Apt emitted strong and photostable dual-color fluorescent signals for precise and reliable cancer cell detection by overcoming the false signals. The specific identification potency of the PS-BSA-AuNCs-Apt system was further verified by successfully detecting the xenografted breast tumor tissue. Notably, to the best of our knowledge, the protein corona formed nanoprobes was exploited for direct tumor cell and tissue detection with high efficacy for the first time, demonstrating their promising potential in clinical tumor detection.

Membrane-fusogenic biomimetic particles: a new bioengineering tool learned from nature.

Membrane fusion, a fundamental biological process of the fusion of the membrane composition between cells, is vital for cell-cell communication and cargo transport between living cells. This fusion interaction achieves the transportation of the inner content to the cellular cytosol as well as the simultaneous blending of foreign substances with the cell membrane. Inspired by this biological process, emerging membrane-fusogenic particles have been developed, opening a new area for bioengineering and biomedical applications. Especially, membrane-fusion-mediated transfer of inner cargoes can bypass endosomal entrapment to maximize the transportation efficiency, emerging as a unique cytoplasmic delivery platform distinct from those depending on conventional endocytosis-based pathways. In addition, the membrane fusion enables cell surface modification through lipid diffusion and mixing, providing a tool for direct cell membrane engineering. In this review, we focus on the development of membrane-fusogenic particles and their up-to-date progress. We briefly introduce the concept of membrane fusion, elaborate inspiring strategies of membrane-fusogenic particles, and highlight the recent advances and the promising applications of membrane-fusogenic particles as a next-generation bioengineering tool. In the end, we conclude with the present challenges and opportunities, providing insights in the future research of membrane-fusogenic particles.

Implantable Sandwich-like Scaffold/Fiber Composite Spatiotemporally Releasing Combretastatin A4 and Doxorubicin for Efficient Inhibition of Postoperative Tumor Recurrence.

Tumor recurrence is a critical conundrum in the postoperative therapy, on account of severe bleeding with disseminated tumor cells, residual tumor cells, and the rich nutrient and oxygen supply transported to tumors by the abundant blood vessels. Biodegradable drug-loaded implants, inserted in the resection cavity right away upon the surgery, possess bleeding prevention and efficient chemotherapeutic capabilities, considered to be a promising strategy to efficiently inhibit the recurrence of the solid tumor. Here, we developed a sandwich-like composite consisting of the combretastatin A4 (CA4)-loaded 3D-printed scaffold and doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded electrospun fiber (Scaffold-CA4@Fiber-DOX), presenting hemostatic, chemotherapeutic, and antibacterial potencies. The lyophilized 3D-printed scaffold with a porous structure rapidly absorbed and clotted the blood cells and disseminated tumor cells to prevent bleeding and tumor metastasis. Subsequently, the preferentially released CA4 from the scaffold disrupted the microtubules of the vascular endothelial cell, resulting in vascular deformation and consequent insufficient nutrient supply to the solid tumor. The sustained release of DOX from the sandwiched electrospun fiber dramatically inhibited the peripheral tumor cell proliferation. This all-in-one multifunctional implant system, combining efficient vascular disruption and chemotherapy, provides a promising strategy for postoperative tumor therapy.
