MicroRNA155 (miR155) in alveolar macrophages and lung epithelial cells enhances inflammatory reactions by inhibiting the suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) in ALI. Anti-miR155 oligonucleotide (AMO155) have been suggested as a potential therapeutic reagent for ALI. However, a safe and efficient carrier is required for delivery of AMO155 into the lungs for ALI therapy. In this study, cell membrane-derived nanovesicles (CMNVs) were produced from cell membranes of LA4 mouse lung epithelial cells and evaluated as a carrier of AMO155 into the lungs. For preparation of CMNVs, cell membranes were isolated from LA4 cells and CMNVs were produced by extrusion. Cholesterol-conjugated AMO155 (AMO155c) was loaded into CMNVs and extracellular vesicles (EVs) by sonication. The physical characterization indicated that CMNVs with AMO155c (AMO155c/CMNV) were membrane-structured vesicles with a size of ∼120 nm. The delivery efficiency and therapeutic efficacy of CMNVs were compared with those of EVs or polyethylenimine (25 kDa, PEI25k). The delivery efficiency of AMO155c by CMNVs was similar to that by EVs. As a result, the miR155 levels were reduced by AMO155c/CMNV and AMO155c/EV. AMO155c/CMNV were administered intratracheally into the ALI models. The SOCS1 levels were increased more efficiently by AMO155c/CMNV than by the others, suggesting that miR155 effectively was inhibited by AMO155c/CMNV. In addition, the inflammatory cytokines were reduced more effectively by AMO155c/CMNV than they were by AMO155c/EV and AMO155c/PEI25k, reducing inflammation reactions.

However, the impact of collagen and the crystalline phase on physicochemical properties have not been elucidated. We hypothesized that understanding these factors could explain why the latter provides improved bone regeneration clinically. In this study, we compared two types of xenografts, one prepared through a low-temperature chemical process (Treated) and another subsequently sintered at 1100°C (Sintered) using advanced microscopy, spectroscopy, X-ray analysis and compressive testing. Our investigation showed that the Treated bone graft was free of residual blood, lipids or cell debris, mitigating the risk of pathogen transmission. Meanwhile, the sintering process removed collagen and the carbonate phase of the Sintered graft, leaving only calcium phosphate and increased mineral crystallinity. Microcomputed tomography revealed that the Treated graft exhibited an increased high porosity (81%) and pore size compared to untreated bone, whereas the Sintered graft exhibited shrinkage, which reduced the porosity (72%), pore size and strut size. Additionally, scanning electron microscopy displayed crack formation around the pores of the Sintered graft. The Treated graft displayed median mechanical properties comparable to native cancellous bone and clinically available solutions, with an apparent modulus of 166 MPa, yield stress of 5.5 MPa and yield strain of 4.9%. In contrast, the Sintered graft exhibited a lower median apparent modulus of 57 MPa.
