Chitosan/gelatin (Cs/Gel) composites are among the most known scaffolds with structural similarity to bone matrix and a high potential to support cell attachment and proliferation. Recently, plant-derived phenolic compound apigenin has been identified to direct the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells and retain osteoblast metabolic functions. We incorporated apigenin into Cs/Gel membranes to improve apigenin bioavailability and get proper concentrations for efficient biological activities. Apigenin-loaded Cs/Gel membranes were prepared using a solution casting method with various apigenin contents (0, 10, 25, 50, and 100 µM). Chemical composition, morphological characteristics, swelling behavior, degradation rate, and apigenin release from membranes were evaluated. Saos-2 osteoblasts were cultured on membranes to investigate cell-membrane interaction, proliferation, viability, and mineralization under the osteogenic culture condition. The results showed that membranes had homogeneous and moderate rough surfaces, facilitating osteoblast attachment and expansion. Swelling ratios exceeded 200%, reaching a stable rate in 24 h. Apigenin-loaded membranes degraded slower in vitro. Membranes containing lower apigenin concentrations exhibited a higher cargo release profile over 21 days. Apigenin improved osteoblast proliferation and viability, but the mineralization depended on apigenin dose, with optimized values at low concentrations. These data suggested that Cs/Gel membranes loaded with low apigenin contents improved osteoblast survival, proliferation, and mineralization.","PeriodicalId":15038,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bioactive and Compatible Polymers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91028561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Less toxic, but effective treatments are sought after. Aloe vera (barbadensis miller), known for its beneficial properties, has been studied for cancer treatment. While aloe gel has been shown to exhibit anti-cancer activity, it cannot form a hydrogel alone. Therefore, an interpenetrating network comprising alginate blended with aloe was examined as a cervical cancer treatment. We hypothesized the antioxidant properties of aloe gel would decrease cancer cell viability while the alginate hydrogel would improve mucoadhesion. We further hypothesized the antioxidant activity of aloe gel would induce cancer cell death at levels similar to common chemotherapeutics, and aimed to determine if these chemotherapeutic behaviors are constructive or destructive. Material and adhesive properties, drug encapsulation, and cancer cell viability were investigated and validated. The effect of aloe-alginate hydrogels on cervical cancer cell viability was not significantly different compared to aloe-blends containing doxorubicin (DOX), indicating that the aloe alone decreased cancer cell viability rendering the additional cytotoxic therapeutic not impactful as an adjuvant therapy. This study provides insight into the potential of natural biopolymers for treating cervical cancer without systemic toxic compounds.","PeriodicalId":15038,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Bioactive and Compatible Polymers","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87326096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The insecticidal effect of different concentrations of CSN (400–1000 ppm) was compared to that of 0.1% cypermethrin as a positive control and normal saline as a negative control. The bugs (n = 25) were immersed for 20 min in the corresponding medium, dried with filter papers, and then incubated at 27–28°C and 70% RH with a 12:12 h light–dark photoperiod. The mortality rates were recorded at different time intervals (2, 4, 6, 12, and 24 h post-incubation (hPI)), and the entire experiment was repeated five times. Image analysis showed round- to spherical-shaped CSN ranging in size from 34 to 72 nm. The mortality rates were positively associated with increasing concentrations of CSN. The mortality rate first reached 100% for concentrations of 800 ppm at 24 hPI and 1000 ppm at 12 hPI. The calculated LC50 was found at a concentration of 1165 ppm at 2 hPI, and the LC99 was found at a concentration of 1914 ppm at 2 hPI. The positive control, cypermethrin, induced 100% mortality among the bugs at 2 hPI, while the negative control caused no mortality.

Further, collagen was fragmented using bacterial collagenase and the processed collagen hydrolysate (peptides) was in the range of 10–15 kDa that was further purified using ion-exchange chromatography. The FTIR spectra of both P coll. and collagen hydrolysate (PSCH) were nearly similar showing that PSCH retained the structural and chemical composition similar to its parent molecule (P coll.). Solubility analysis revealed that PSCH has slightly better solubility compared to P coll. Similarly, scanning electron micrographs also exhibited more uniform and porous microstructure of PSCH compared to P coll. Further, PSCH was found to be efficient in peroxide quenching (64.5%) and radical scavenging activities (85.74%). MTT studies confirmed PSCH to be non-toxic displaying 84.68% cell viability at the highest concentration (3 mg/ml) and hemocompatibility test revealed PSCH to be non-hemolytic with minimal lysis of only 2.1% of human RBCs. In addition, PSCH also displayed a remarkable wound closure ability of more than 80% at 12 h and 100% within 24 h.

Also, the antioxidant activity, scratch assay, and cell viability of fibroblast cells were also evaluated. The results showed PVA/PCL scaffold loaded with 10 wt% C. officinalis and coffee extracts displayed smooth homogenous morphology with 317 ± 106 nm average diameter. Moreover, the relevant analyses confirmed that the extracts were incorporated into the nanofibers with suitable hydrophilicity and higher mechanical strength (4 ± 0.4 MPa). The antioxidant assay showed that IC50 values of coffee and C. officinalis extracts were 46 ± 1 ppm and 101 ± 4 ppm, successively, which presented a high antioxidant activity.
