As stiffness and surface topology affect macrophages at the same time, the competition or partnership among physical cues against the regulation of macrophages is still ambiguous. Herein, a series of PDMS implants with different stiffness at ∼ MPa and surface topology at tens of micrometers were fabricated to investigate the relationship, the regulation rule, and the underlying mechanism of the two physical cues against the inflammatory responses of M1 macrophages. There is a competitive rule: surface topology could suppress the inflammatory responses of M1 macrophages in the soft group but did not have the same effect in the stiff group. Without surface topology, lower stiffness unexpectedly evoked stronger inflammatory responses of M1 macrophages. Implanting experiments also proved that the competitive state against mediating <em>in vivo</em> immune responses and the unexpected inflammatory responses. The reason is that stiffness could strongly up-regulate focal adhesion and activate the MAPK/NF-κB signaling axis to evoke inflammatory responses, which could shield the effect of surface topology. Therefore, for patient healthcare, it is crucial to prioritize stiffness while not surface topology at MPa levels to minimize adverse reactions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18310,"journal":{"name":"Materials Today Bio","volume":"29 ","pages":"Article 101304"},"PeriodicalIF":8.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142538515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The delivery of MSCs in microsized hydrogels allows for simple injection, improved retention, and enhanced cell protection. However, the high oxidative stress present in ischemic tissues significantly impairs the viability and therapeutic activity of transplanted MSCs. This study aimed to develop a simple and effective method for fabricating reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging microgels to enhance the MSC efficacy for ischemic hindlimb treatment. Specifically, tip-sonicated graphene oxide (GO)/alginate (sGO/alginate) microgels exhibited significantly increased antioxidizing activity against various ROS compared with pristine GO/alginate microgels. MSCs encapsulated in sGO/alginate microgels (MSC/sGO/alginate) demonstrated higher viability than those encapsulated in alginate or GO/alginate microgels under various oxidative stress conditions.
