To create novel hydrogels with their potential use in the treatment of wounds, the semi-interpenetration process, altering the concentration (0-40% by wt) of gum arabic in a collagen matrix is explored. The ability of gum arabic to create intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the collagen matrix enables the development of semi-interpenetrating polymeric networks (semi-IPN)-based hydrogels with a faster gelation time and higher crosslinking. Amorphous granular surfaces with linked porosity are present in matrices with 30% (by wt) of gum arabic, enhancing the storage modulus and thermal degradation resistance.

It has become one of the world's most difficult non-communicable diseases. The goal of this study was to view the effectiveness of the combined method of macro- and microencapsulation for islet transplantation. The process of 3D printing is used to make macroencapsulation bags with regulated diffusion properties thanks to the emerging small pored channels. The ink used to manufacture 3D-printed bags with controlled specifications was polyurethane solution (13% w/v). Swelling experiments revealed that there was very little swelling and that the membrane maintained its structural stability. Alginate beads (made from 5% w/v solution) were used to microencapsulate islet cell clusters. Direct contact assay was used to confirm in vitro cytocompatibility. The insulin release from the encapsulated rabbit islets was confirmed using a glucose challenge assay. When challenged with 20 mM glucose on day 7, the encapsulated islet cells released insulin at a rate of 9.72 ± 0.65 mU/L, which was identical to the RIN-5F islet cell line control, confirming the functioning of the encapsulated islets. After 21 days of culture, the islets were shown to be viable utilizing a live-dead assay. As a result, our work demonstrates that 3D printing for macroencapsulating cells, as well as microencapsulation with alginates, is a viable scale-up technology with great potential in the field of pancreatic islet transplantation.","PeriodicalId":20691,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Biomaterials","volume":"12 1","pages":"13-24"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9958212/pdf/40204_2022_Article_208.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10788195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Various methods could be employed to address the problems of mucoadhesive polymers like weak adhesion forces. Chemical modification of polymers, such as the addition of a thiol group or thiolation, is another way for improving the polymers' mucoadhesive properties that is studied in present research work. A novel thiomer of chitosan was prepared by attaching 2-mercaptobenzoic acid, a hydrophobic ligand onto it. The docking of thiomer and chitosan with mucin structure showed higher binding energy for former. The prepared thiomer was subjected to X-ray diffraction and DSC which established reduction in crystallinity and formation of a new compound through changes in glass transition, melting point and change in diffraction pattern. The NMR studies established conjugation of 2-mercapto benzoic acid to chitosan. The increased mucoadhesion in thiomer behaviour (2-3 fold) was confirmed through mucus glycoprotein assay as well as through texture analysis. The permeation enhancing the property of thiomer was established by demonstrating the permeation of phenol red across thiomer treated intestinal membrane. An in vitro cell toxicity assay was done to establish toxicity of chitosan and thiolated chitosan. Finally, the reduced water uptake of thiomer over chitosan proved that the increase in mucoadhesion is not contributed by swelling. Thus, a thiomer with improved mucoadhesion and enhanced permeation properties was prepared and characterized. Hence, all these properties render the newly synthesized polymer a better alternative to chitosan as an excipient for mucoadhesive drug delivery systems.","PeriodicalId":20691,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Biomaterials","volume":"11 4","pages":"397-408"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9626691/pdf/40204_2022_Article_201.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33492981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The addition of trace elements to BCP bioceramics, such as magnesium (Mg), cerium (Ce), and silicon (Si), can alter the physicochemical and biological properties of the resulting materials. To improve the anti-inflammatory activity of a pure BCP scaffold, this study developed a simple wet chemical precipitation and gel-casting method to fabricate microporous BCP scaffolds containing Si or Ce. The BCP scaffolds exhibited interconnected microporous structures with uniform micropores and unequiaxed grains. No changes in the phase composition and microstructure of the scaffolds with the Si or Ce doping were observed. Conversely, Si or Ce doping into the BCP crystal lattice influenced the in vitro biological activity of the scaffolds and the bone-forming ability of the cells cultured on the BCP scaffolds. The results of biological activity assays demonstrated that Ce-BCP promoted cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation more effectively than the other scaffolds. In particular, Ce-BCP significantly suppressed the expression of bone-active cytokines via the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects. Therefore, Si- or Ce-doped BCP scaffolds can contribute to providing a new generation of bone graft substitutes.","PeriodicalId":20691,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Biomaterials","volume":"11 4","pages":"421-430"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9626711/pdf/40204_2022_Article_206.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"33502155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The differentiated cells were analyzed using a real-time RT-PCR to investigate Glut-2, Insulin, Pdx-1, Ngn-3, nestin, and Isl-1 gene expression. The results revealed that differentiation of the encapsulated cells was higher than non-encapsulated cells. Also, dithizone staining in two-dimensional (2D) environment showed the differentiated cell clusters.

Mineralization determined through alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, calcium ion and annexin A2 markers of mineralization) and osteogenic behaviour (collagen I expression) were supported in both hydrogels, but to a greater extent in pNTBAM. pNTBAM supported significantly elevated levels of chondrogenic markers as evidenced by collagen II and glycosaminoglycan expression in comparison to little or no evidence in pNIPAM (P ≤ 0.05). In conclusion, structurally similar, chemically distinct, acrylamide hydrogels display variable capacities in supporting osteochondral cell behaviours. These systems demonstrate spatial control of cell interaction through simple changes in monomer chemistry. Fine control over chemical presentation during the fabrication of biomaterial implants could lead to greater efficacy and targeted regeneration of semi-complex tissues.","PeriodicalId":20691,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Biomaterials","volume":"11 3","pages":"297-309"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9374864/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40597356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
