Clinical Proteomic Tumor Analysis Consortium (CPTAC) data showed that the expression of CSC markers (CD44, ALDH1A1, and CD117) rather than folic acid receptor is highly associated with poor clinical outcomes in OC patients. Western assay, migration and colony forming assay proved chemo-resistant HEY-T30 cells overexpress CSC markers and much more invasive than other cancer cells. Synthesized NPs were ~250 nm and spherical by DLS and TEM analysis. FACS and microscopic analysis revealed the active targeting property of PheoA-SN38-HC NPs in CD44+ HEY-T30 cells. Moreover, synergistic effects of the combination therapy of photodynamic ROS generation and ROS-triggered SN38 release were clearly demonstrated with in vitro HEY-T30 cells and an in vivo xenograft mouse model. In particular, the paracrine cytotoxic effect of SN38 released by ROS-trigger suggested that combination design could compensate for the clinical limitation of photodynamic therapy.","PeriodicalId":105746,"journal":{"name":"AMI: Acta Biomaterialia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116784538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We hypothesise that clinical injury patterns in these tissues occur in localised regions where there is an integrated requirement for both marked compliance and significant load transfer. Here we used synchrotron computed tomography (sCT) to resolve collagen fibre bundles (~5μm width) in 3D throughout an intact native rat lumbar IVD under increasing compressive load. Using intact samples meant that tissue boundaries (such as endplate-disc or nucleus-annulus) and residual strain were preserved; this is vital for characterising both the inherent structure and structural changes upon loading in tissue regions functioning in a near-native environment. Nano-scale displacement measurements along >10,000 individual fibres were tracked, and fibre orientation, curvature and strain changes were compared between the failure-prone posterior-lateral region and the more robust anterior region. These methods can be widely applied to other soft tissues, to identify fibre structures which cause tissue regions to be more susceptible to injury and degeneration. Our results demonstrate for the first time that highly-localised changes in fibre orientation, curvature and strain indicate differences in regional strain transfer and mechanical function (e.g. tissue compliance), correlating directly with locations clinically at risk of damage. This included decreased fibre reorientation at higher loads, specific tissue morphology which reduced capacity for flexibility and high strain at the disc-endplate boundary.","PeriodicalId":105746,"journal":{"name":"AMI: Acta Biomaterialia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123762662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

So far, it still remains a great challenge to treat the defected TMJ condyle cartilage through tissue engineering technology. Herein, a bilayered gradient scaffold is designed to fully reconstruct the different cartilage matrices of TMJ condyle under same induction condition. The gradient scaffold with segregated hydrophobicity-hydrophilicity in top and bottom layer is prepared from a low and high content of polyethylene glycol (PEG) crosslinked poly (L-glutamic acid)- g -polycaprolactone (PLGA- g -PCL). The hydrophobic microdomains in top layer support the adhesion and spread of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), thus inducing the differentation towards fibrocartilage; while aggregates (spheroids) are formed on the hydrophlic bottom layer, showing a preferable hyaline differentiation pathway under same chondrogenic induction in vitro . After 14 d in vitro induction, the scaffold/BMSCs construct is implanted in goat’s TMJ condyle defects. The post-operative outcome after 2 months demonstrates that the defects are fully covered by neo-cartilage , and the regenerated hierarchical TMJ condyle cartilage is perfectly consisted of ordered fibrocartilage and hyaline cartilage, which is same as natural condyle cartilage, corroborating that this gradient scaffold with segregated hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity carrying induced BMSCs is a promising for treatment of TMJ condyle cartilage defects.","PeriodicalId":105746,"journal":{"name":"AMI: Acta Biomaterialia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113935537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we developed a pathogen infection-responsive and macrophage endoplasmic reticulum-targeting nanoplatform to alleviate sepsis. The nanoplatform is composed of large-pore mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) grafted by an endoplasmic reticulum-targeting peptide (ERP), and a pathogen infection-responsive cap (TPB) containing the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-cleavable boronobenzyl acid linker (TSPBA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). The TPB-capped MSNs exhibited the capacity to highly load the antimicrobial peptide melittin (MEL), and to rapidly release the cargo triggered by H2O2 or the pathogen-macrophage interaction system. During the interaction between pathogenic C. albicans cells and macrophages, the MEL-loading nanoplatform MSNE+MEL+TPB strongly inhibited pathogen growth, survived macrophages, and suppressed endoplasmic reticulum stress and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In a systemic infection model, the nanoplatform efficiently protected the mice from death, prevented kidney dysfunction and alleviated sepsis symptoms. This study developed an efficient multifunctional nanoplatform for treatment of sepsis.

Although the TME is of critical importance during initiation and spread of cancer, relatively little is known about its biophysical evolution during tumor development and progression. In this study a 3D collagen type I–based scaffold model cross-linked with 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDGE) was employed to mimic mechanical changes occurring in normal tissue (2 kPa - soft, So) and advanced cancer tissue (12 kPa - stiff, St) and monitor how these biophysical cues affect the stromal tumor compartment. Viability assays, migration patterns and matrix remodeling together with RNA sequencing investigated cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) response to TME stiffness. In the model, CAFs fail to remodel St scaffolds, showing lower migration and increased cell circularity compared to cells grown on So scaffolds. This behavior is reflected in gene expression profiles, showing an upregulation of DNA replication, DNA repair and chromosome organization gene clusters, with a concommitant loss of their ability to remodel and deposit extracellular matrix after culture on St scaffolds. Soft scaffolds can reproduce biophysically-meaningful microenvironements for tumour early stages investigations, while St scaffolds can better mimic mechanical cues occurring in advanced cancer stages. These results not only establish the need for tunable and affordable 3D scaffolds as effective platforms for cancer research but also reveal the contribution of microenvironment biomechanics in regulating gene expression changes in the stromal tumor tissue compartment.","PeriodicalId":105746,"journal":{"name":"AMI: Acta Biomaterialia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127780431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present work, two novel Zn–Ag–Mg alloys with highly desirable mechanical, corrosion, and biological performance are introduced. Microstructural characterization revealed a significant grain refinement as a consequence of alloying (Ag, Mg) in conjunction with an adequate thermomechanical processing route for both alloy systems. Tensile test results indicated that the best mechanical properties in terms of yield strength (YS), ultimate tensile strength (UTS), and elongation to failure (% E) was achieved for the unidirectional rolled (UR) Zn–5.0Ag–0.5Mg alloy (A–1) with values of ~ 300 MPa, ~ 370 MPa, and ~ 40 %, respectively. However, a superior UTS was exhibited for the Zn–10.0Ag–1.0Mg alloy (A–2) with a value of ~ 450 MPa. The observed corrosion rate (CR) trend measured by potentiodynamic polarization test was: A–1 = 2.232 (mm/year) > A–2 = 1.405 (mm/year) > pure Zn = 0.935 (mm/year). When static immersion tests were performed, it was observed a different static corrosion rate (SCR) with the following trend: pure Zn = 0.14 (mm/year) > A–1 = 0.07 (mm/year) > A–2 = 0.05 (mm/year). Moreover, the indirect cell test showed that both alloys exhibited grade 0 of cytotoxicity at 10 % and 1 % of metal extracts.

Because the auricular cartilage is a type of elastic cartilage that lacks regenerative capacity, any notable defect in its structure requires a surgical approach to reconstruct the auricle. While there are several reconstructive options available between alloplastic and prosthetic implants, autologous rib cartilage grafts remain the most commonly used treatment modality. Still, this widely used technique is accompanied by significant patient discomfort in a young child, and it carries additional risks secondary to the traumatic process of rib cartilage extraction, such as pneumothorax, chest wall deformities, and the final aesthetic results may not be ideal. To circumvent these limitations, tissue-engineering approaches have been employed to create a realistic-looking ear that mirrors the complex anatomy of the normal ear. This article provides an overall description of the ear’s anatomy and reviews the traditional management options for auricular reconstruction. The biochemical and biomechanical properties of human auricular cartilage are detailed as they relate to design criteria. In addition, a variety of cell sources, biocompatible scaffolds, scaffold-free techniques, mechanical and biological stimuli have been discussed. This review aims to identify knowledge gaps in the literature related to auricular cartilage characteristics and make recommendations to drive the field of auricular tissue engineering.","PeriodicalId":105746,"journal":{"name":"AMI: Acta Biomaterialia","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130865943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
