Despite progress in surgical technique, rotator cuff repairs (RCRs) do not always heal efficiently. Many failures occur at the bone-tendon interface as a result of poor healing capacity of the tendon and failure to regenerate the native histological anatomy of the enthesis. While allografts are commercially available, clinical use is limited as they do not stimulate tissue regeneration and are associated with a structural failure of up to 40% in re-tear cases. Novel tissue engineering strategies are being developed with promise, but most involve addition of cells and/or growth factors which extends the timeline for clinical translation. Thus, there exists a significant unmet clinical need for easily translatable surgical augmentation approaches that can improve healing in RCR. Here we describe the development of a decellularized tendon matrix (DTM) putty that preserves native tendon bioactivity using a novel processing technique. <i>In vitro</i>, DTM promoted proliferation of tenocytes and adipose-derived stem cells with an increase in expression-specific transcription factors seen during enthesis development, <i>Scleraxis</i> and <i>Sox9</i>. When placed in a rabbit model of a chronic rotator cuff tear, DTM improved histological tissue repair by promoting calcification at the bone-tendon interface more similar to the normal fibrocartilaginous enthesis. Taken together, these data indicate that the engineered DTM putty retains a pro-regenerative bioactivity that presents a promising translational strategy for improving healing at the enthesis.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":202,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine","volume":"2023 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2023/4665795","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139269084","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its development lags behind that of artificial blood vascular tissue for ischemic diseases. In this study, we constructed artificial 3D lymphatic vascular tissue, termed ASCLT, by co-cultivation of ECM-nanofilm-coated human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hASCs) and human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells (HDLECs). The effect of hASCs in lymphatic vessel network formation was evaluated by comparison with the tissue based on fibroblasts, termed FbLT. Our results showed that the density of lymphatic vascular network in ASCLT was higher than that in FbLT, demonstrating a promoting effect of hASCs on lymphatic vascular formation. This result was also supported by higher levels of lymphangiogenesis-promoting factors, such as bFGF, HGF, and VEGF-A in ASCLT than in FbLT. To evaluate the therapeutic effects, FbLTs and ASCLTs were subcutaneously transplanted to mouse hindlimb lymphatic drainage interruption models by removal of popliteal and subiliac lymph nodes. Despite the restricted engraftment of lymphatic vessels, ASCLT promoted regeneration of irregular and diverse lymphatic drainage in the skin, as visualized by indocyanine green imaging. Moreover, transplantation of ASCLT to the popliteal lymph node resection area also resulted in lymphatic drainage regeneration. Histological analysis of the generated drainage visualized by FITC-dextran injection revealed that the drainage was localized in the subcutaneous area shallower than the dermal muscle.

Periodontitis is characterized by bone resorption and periodontal tissue destruction owing to oral microbiota, mechanical stress, and systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus. Human dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells (hDPMSCs) were analyzed as potential candidates for periodontal tissue regeneration. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), also known as aspirin, has been shown to promote osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. We investigated the effect of ASA pretreatment on periodontitis in order to achieve a more appealing prognosis of bone resorption. <i>Methods</i>. The effect of ASA on cell proliferation was detected by the CCK-8 assay, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, alizarin red staining (ARS), and western blot were used to investigate the effect of different ASA concentrations on hDPMSCs’ osteogenic differentiation and possible signaling pathways. Periodontitis was induced for 4 weeks. Stem cells pretreated with 50 <i>µ</i>g/mL of ASA were transplanted into six-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats by local and systemic injection once a week for two weeks.

In vitro experiments revealed that 50 <i>µ</i>g/mL of ASA had a significant effect on cell osteogenic differentiation. That is, when ASA was administered, the MAPK signaling pathway was activated. Notably, further vivo experiments revealed that ASA-hDPMSCs increased the area of bone regeneration and the OPG/RANKL ratio, suppressed TNF-<i>α</i> and IL-1 expression, and promote alveolar bone repair. <i>Conclusion</i>.

Amniotic membrane (AM) is a versatile surgical tool for tissue stabilization, antifibrotic properties, and regeneration. Initial clinical case studies now demonstrated intravitreal tolerance as well as good anatomical and functional results for degenerative retinal diseases. Due to its diverse wound healing properties, AM could have promoting, suppressive, or no effects on PVR. To illuminate the potential of epiretinal AM transplantation in complex retinal detachment cases, we investigated its influence on human primary PVR (hPVR) cells <i>in vitro</i>. In our cell culture study, hPVR cells were isolated from surgically removed PVR membranes. Following incubation with AM for 48 h, AM-incubated hPVR showed significantly reduced proliferation (BrdU-ELISA; <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), migration (Boyden chamber, scratch assay; <i>p</i> = 0.003 and <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), and cell adhesion (<i>p</i> = 0.005). Collagen contraction was nearly unaffected (<i>p</i> = 0.04), and toxicity (histone-complexed DNA ELISA, WST-1 assay, and life/dead staining) was excluded. Next, immunofluorescence showed a myofibroblastic phenotype with reduced expression of fibrosis markers in AM-incubated cells, which was confirmed by Western blot analysis. In the proteomics assay, AM significantly regulated proteins by a more than 2-fold increase in expression which were related to the cytoskeleton, lipid metabolism, cell-matrix contraction, and protein folding. In conclusion, this <i>in vitro</i> work suggests no induction of fibrosis and other key steps in the pathogenesis of PVR through AM but rather inhibiting properties of profibrotic cell behavior, making it a possible candidate for suppression of PVR.

C2C12 myoblasts were seeded in hydrogels made from type I collagen ortendon-derived extracellular matrix (tECM) and allowed to form around movable anchors.

Strain values at the maximum displacement of the anchors averaged about 0.10, a target that has been shown to induce myogenic phenotype in C2C12s. Protein expression of paxillin after 2 weeks did not differ between hydrogel materials in static cultures but increased by 62% in tECM when mechanically stimulated. These differences continued after 4 weeks, with 31% and 57% increases in tECM tissues relative to type I collagen.
