However, the deproteinized human demineralized tooth matrix (dpDTM), developed to overcome the limited availability of autologous tooth grafts, have suboptimal pore size and surface roughness. This study aimed to fabricate a surface-modified dpDTM using acid etching and collagen coating, followed by in vitro evaluation of physicochemical and biological properties. The dpDTM was modified into two protocols: Acid-modified dpDTM (A-dpDTM) and Collagen-modified dpDTM (C-dpDTM). Results demonstrated that A-dpDTM and C-dpDTM had increased pore sizes and rougher surfaces compared to dpDTM. Collagen immobilization was evidenced by nitrogen presence exclusively in C-dpDTM. All groups had a Ca/P molar ratio of 1.67 and hydroxyapatite as the sole constituent, with 65-67% crystallinity. Degradation rates significantly increased to 30% and 20% for C-dpDTM and A-dpDTM respectively, compared to 10% for dpDTM after 120 days. Cumulative collagen release of C-dpDTM on Day 30 was 45.16 µg/ml. Osteoblasts attachment and proliferation were enhanced on all scaffolds, especially C-dpDTM, which displayed the highest proliferation and differentiation rates. In conclusion, surface modified of dpDTM, including A-dpDTM and C-dpDTM, significantly enhances bioactivity by altering surface properties and promoting osteoblast activity, thereby demonstrating promise for bone regeneration applications.","PeriodicalId":20929,"journal":{"name":"Regenerative Biomaterials","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140222718","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}

The three-dimensional (3D) printing technique enables the production of porous scaffolds with a honeycomb structure featuring precisely controlled pore size, porosity, and interconnectivity, which holds significant potential for applications in tissue engineering. The ideal pore architecture of porous PEKK scaffolds has yet to be elucidated. Porous PEKK scaffolds with five pore sizes P200 (225 ± 9.8 μm), P400 (411 ± 22.1 μm), P600 (596 ± 23.4 μm), P800 (786 ± 24.2 μm), and P1000 (993 ± 26.0 μm) were produced by a 3D printer. Subsequently, the optimum pore size, the P600, for mechanical properties and osteogenesis was selected based on in vitro experiments. To improve the interfacial bioactivity of porous PEKK scaffolds, hydroxyapatite (HAp) crystals were generated via in situ biomimetic mineralization induced by the phase transited lysozyme (PTL) coating. Herein, a micro/nanostructured surface showing HAp crystals on PEKK scaffold was developed. In vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed that the porous PEKK-HAp scaffolds exhibited highly interconnected pores and functional surface structures that were favorable for biocompatibility and osteoinductivity, which boosted bone regeneration. Therefore, this work not only demonstrates that the pore structure of the P600 scaffold is suitable for PEKK orthopedic implants but also sheds light on a synergistic approach involving 3D printing and biomimetic mineralization, which has the potential to yield customized 3D PEKK-HAp scaffolds with enhanced osteoinductivity and osteogenesis, offering a promising strategy for bone tissue engineering.","PeriodicalId":20929,"journal":{"name":"Regenerative Biomaterials","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140151766","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}

Hence the combination of local PTT/PDT and systemic immunotherapy would be a promising strategy for tumor eradication. Herein, a MRI-visualized PTT/PDT agent (SIDP NMs) was constructed, and the efficacy of its multimodal combination with PD-1 inhibitor in the treatment of melanoma and metastases was studied. Due to the hydrophobic encapsulation of indocyanine green (ICG) within the micellar core, SIDP NMs exhibited excellent photothermal/photodynamic properties and stability under 808 nm near-infrared laser (NIR). In vitro cell experiments showed that SIDP NMs had a good killing effect. After incubating with B16-F10 cells for 24 h and irradiating with 808 nm laser for 10 min, cell viability decreased significantly. Magnetic resonance imaging experiments in melanoma-bearing mice have shown that the dynamic distribution of SIDP NMs in tumor tissue could be monitored by T2WI and T2-MAP noninvasively due to the presence of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanocrystal (SPIO) in SIDP NMs. When the 808 nm laser was irradiated at the maximum focusing time point shown by MRI, the temperature of the tumor area rapidly increased from 32 °C to 60.7 °C in five minutes. In mouse melanoma ablation and distant tumor immunotherapy studies, SIDP NMs provided excellent MRI-guided photothermal/photodynamic therapy results and, when combined with PD-1 inhibitor, have great potential to cure primary tumors and eradicate metastases.","PeriodicalId":20929,"journal":{"name":"Regenerative Biomaterials","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140150952","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}

Excessive secretion of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in diabetic wounds further degrades the extracellular matrix (ECM) and growth factors and causes severe vascular damage, which seriously hinders diabetic wound healing. To solve these issues, a double-network porous hydrogel composed of poly (methyl methacrylate-co-acrylamide) (p(MMA-co-AM)) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) was constructed by the high internal phase emulsions (HIPE) technique for the delivery of potassium sucrose octasulfate (PSO), a drug that can inhibit matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), increase angiogenesis, and improve microcirculation. The hydrogel possessed a typical polyHIPE hierarchical microstructure with interconnected porous morphologies, high porosity, high specific surface area, excellent mechanical properties, and suitable swelling properties. Meanwhile, the p(MMA-co-AM)/PVA@PSO hydrogel showed high drug-loading performance and effective PSO release. In addition, both in vitro and in vivo studies showed that the p(MMA-co-AM)/PVA@PSO hydrogel had good biocompatibility and significantly accelerated diabetic wound healing by inhibiting excessive MMP-9 in diabetic wounds, increasing growth factor secretion, improving vascularization, increasing collagen deposition, and promoting re-epithelialization.

Double-bond-modified hyaluronic acid is used as a monomer and is cross-linked with a PF127-DA agent. PHMoD is prepared in coordination with MoS2-dithiothreitol as the functional component. This hydrogel exhibits antioxidant and antibacterial properties, attributed to the catalytic activity of catalase-like enzymes and photothermal effects. Under the NIR, it exhibits potent antibacterial effects against gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli), achieving bactericidal rates of 99.76% and 99.42%, respectively. Furthermore, the hydrogel exhibits remarkable ROS scavenging and antioxidant capabilities, effectively countering oxidative stress in L929 cells. Remarkably, in an animal model, wounds treated with the PHMoD(2.0) and NIR laser heal the fastest, sealing completely within 10 d.

Utilizing 3D printing technology, a stable external support system was created using resin material consisting of a rigid, hollow base and cover. To replicate the lens capsule structure, a thin hydrogel coating was applied to the resin scaffold. The biocompatibility and impact on cellular functionality of various hydrogel compositions were assessed through an array of staining techniques, including calcein-AM/PI staining, rhodamine staining, BODIPY-C11 staining, and EdU staining in conjunction with transwell assays. Additionally, the PCO model was utilized to investigate the effects of eight drugs with anti-inflammatory and anti-proliferative properties, including 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR), THZ1, sorbinil, 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), xathohumol, zebularine, rapamycin, and caffeic acid phenethyl ester (CAPE), on human lens epithelial cells (HLECs).

The results demonstrated that the GelMA 60 5% + PLMA 2% composite hydrogel exhibited superior biocompatibility and minimal lipid peroxidation levels among the tested hydrogels. Moreover, compared to using hydrogel as the material for 3D printing the entire model, applying surface hydrogel spin coating with parameters of 2000 rpm x 2 on the resin-based 3D printed base yielded a more uniform cell distribution and reduced apoptosis. Furthermore, rapamycin, 4-OI, and AICAR demonstrated potent antiproliferative effects in the drug intervention study.
