In recent years, although traditional tissue engineering strategies provide exogenous stem cells for the healing of diabetic wounds, they have not reversed the dilemma of stem cell proliferation and differentiation in a high-glucose environment. In this work, piRNA-hsa-32182 was first demonstrated to be highly expressed in diabetic wounds and significantly inhibit the differentiation and migration of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs). Accordingly, a 4D-printed tissue engineering hydrogel and piRNA-hsa-32182 antagomir were prepared to precisely modulate the survival microenvironment of ADMSCs and accelerate diabetic wound healing. 4D printed tissue engineering hydrogels provided a highly ordered microenvironment for ADMSCs through internal space homogenization, thereby effectively improving the loading rate and survival rate of stem cells. In addition, piRNA-hsa-32182 antagomir effectively enhanced the migration of ADMSCs, thereby increasing the deposition and maturation of collagen on the wound and promoting angiogenesis.

Tomatine based liposome (T-LPX) exhibited elevated uptake in dendritic cells (DCs) via caveolin-mediated endocytosis and improved mRNA translation via the increased expression of DExH-box helicase 29 mediated by tomatine, leading to a marked increase in mRNA expression efficiency and ensuring highly efficient antigen presentation.

Finally, T-LPX loaded with a tumor antigen-encoding mRNA was investigated and found to elicit potent immune responses against the E.G7-OVA murine tumor. Furthermore, such versatile adjuvant effect of tomatine was also demonstrated to equally apply to the other nanocarrier (lipid nanoparticle) and antigen.

The loss of pericytes, and corresponding weakening of the BBB, has been reported in response to episodes of systemic inflammation and in neurodegenerative disease. We recently demonstrated that iPSC-derived pericyte-like and BMEC-like cells form a nascent, 3D basement membrane when cultured across an ultrathin (100 nm thick) and highly nanoporous membrane (McCloskey, Ahmed et al., AHCM 2024).

Given the structural role of pericytes <em>in vivo</em>, here we sought to engineer defects in the basement membrane to see if pericytes could repair them. In BMEC-like monocultures, we found that micropore (3 μm and 5 μm) patterns in nanomembranes appeared as corresponding discontinuities in basement membrane laminin and destabilized barrier function. Both the laminin defects and the baseline barrier function were restored with the addition of pericytes on the basal side of the membrane. We further found that: 1) BMECs transmigrate through large micropores in monocultures but not in co-culture with pericytes, and 2) pericytes stabilized barrier function.

We previously fabricated Glycyrrhizic acid (GL)-based lipid nanoparticles (GLPs) that possess hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) targeting and improved membrane stability. Interestingly, GL exhibits the potential to inhibit the up-regulated HSP90 and regulate the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Herein, the near-infrared photosensitizer IR780 was efficiently encapsulated into GLPs to promote photothermal enhancement and synergistic immunosuppressive anti-tumor effects. Under the irradiation of NIR light, the IR780 GLPs effectively enhance the PTT efficacy on the HCC-bearing mice model via suppressing HSP90 expression with the combination of GL. Furthermore, IR780 GLPs exhibited strong HCC targeting ability, effectively downregulating the expression of immunosuppressive Treg cells, promoting the repolarization of M2 macrophages to M1 macrophages, increasing the infiltration of cytotoxic CD8<sup>+</sup>T cells and downregulating the expression of TGF-β and IL-10, upregulating IL-12, TNF-α, and IFN-γ, reshaping the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Overall, we developed a novel GL-based lipid nanoparticle system encapsulating IR780 to amplify the synergistic effects of chemo-PTT for HCC treatment.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18310,"journal":{"name":"Materials Today Bio","volume":"35 ","pages":"Article 102353"},"PeriodicalIF":10.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145155490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
