To address this challenge, we developed a novel multifunctional nanoplatform for targeted thrombolysis: PLGA-PFP-rtPA nanoparticles modified with the fibrin-targeting peptide CREKA (PPrC NPs). The nanoparticles were successfully fabricated with a spherical morphology, a mean size of 289±12.2 nm, and a zeta potential of -13.1±0.5 mV, indicating good stability.

Furthermore, comprehensive hemocompatibility evaluations, including hemolysis, coagulation function, complement activation (C3a), and platelet activation, revealed no adverse effects within the therapeutically relevant concentration range (≤ 800 µg/mL).

Current therapies often use biodegradable amniotic membranes (AMs) to assist in transferring limbal stem cells or explants to the cornea. Surgeons have extensive experience with these, but they are human biological tissue and must be sourced and used under tissue bank conditions to reduce the risk of disease transmission. Thus, accessibility and safety remain concerns in their use. Accordingly, the development of synthetic scaffolds to support limbal tissue outgrowth is an attractive, reproducible and accessible alternative. This group has made good progress towards this membrane design using a Polylactide-co-Glycolide (PLGA) electrospun membrane but has identified problems with handling and integrity of the membrane once wet. Our aim, therefore, is to improve the integrity and pliability of these cell delivery membranes in wet environments without compromising their ability to act as cell carriers for corneal regeneration. Electrospun scaffolds with different mechanical properties were manufactured by blending different concentrations of PLGA and Polycaprolactone (PCL). All the manufactured membranes supported cell outgrowth when tested with porcine and human limbal explants. Scaffolds were characterised under dry and wet conditions using scanning electron microscopy and uniaxial tensile testing. Blends with a relatively high proportion of PCL (30%) were able to maintain their mechanical properties under both dry and wet conditions and were flexible in handling. This study demonstrates that PLGA-PCL electrospun membranes with 30% PCL content retain good mechanical properties in a wet environment, making them easy to handle while retaining the ability to support limbal tissue attachment and cell outgrowth.

Oxygen deficiency not only results in prolonged inflammation but also contributes to its continuation by sustaining immune responses. Although various nanocarriers have been designed for oxygen transport or antioxidant drug delivery, this study uniquely combines both functions in a single nanomaterial platform. Here, we report the synthesis of an oxygen-carrying nanomaterial (CPE) functionalized with antioxidant citric acid and loaded with vitamin E. CPE particles exhibit an initial burst release within the first 24 h, followed by a pH-dependent sustained release phase. In an acidic environment (pH 6.0), cumulative release reaches a maximum of ∼69% by the end of day 7. Additionally, CPE particles exhibit a continuous O<sub>2</sub>release profile over 7 d, reaching a peak of ∼11.8% at 96 h and maintaining an O₂ level close to physiological oxygen levels (>6%) in a hypoxic environment by the end of day 7.<i>In vitro</i>experiments are consistent with each other in terms of cell viability, ROS, and NO production. In general, CPE increases the viability of healthy cells by 25% while decreasing ROS, NO and lipid peroxidation, and increases ROS, NO and lipid peroxidation in cancer cells while decreasing cell viability by 11% in hypoxic environments. The observed results are interpreted as follows: cancer cells typically exhibit high basal ROS levels and limited antioxidant buffering capacity. Therefore, an increase in oxygen availability, combined with citric acid and vitamin E, can cause acute oxidative imbalance. Under these conditions, moderate ROS accumulation can increase oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, ultimately inhibiting cancer cell proliferation. In contrast, healthy cells possess more efficient antioxidant defense systems. The presence of oxygen, citric acid, and vitamin E together can support normal oxygen-dependent metabolism while protecting cell membranes from lipid peroxidation, thanks to citric acid's metal chelation properties and vitamin E's antioxidant activity.</p>","PeriodicalId":72389,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical materials (Bristol, England)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147655540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we present a novel design for a two-chamber perfusion bioreactor that provides optical accessibility on both the apical and basal surfaces of 3D tissue models based on small intestine submucosa (SIS) scaffolds, while also enabling tissue culture under dynamic flow conditions. The flow of cell culture medium inside of the bioreactor was simulated in order to obtain uniform mechanical stimulation by means of shear stress on the apical surface of the tissue model (surface uniformity index >0.9). The shear stress magnitude lies in physiologically relevant ranges (average shear stress ∼1.4 mPa). As a proof-of-concept experiment a 3D tissue model consisting of spheroids from FaDu cells growing on the surface of the acellular scaffold SISser was cultured under dynamic flow conditions during six days and characterized using different optical imaging techniques. Attachment and growth of the spheroids over the scaffold was monitored using brightfield microscopy, after six days the area covered by the spheroids increased 3.45 times. Additionally, label-free metabolic imaging was performed by using nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) as reporter. Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy of the coenzymes revealed differences in both the fluorescence intensity and lifetime of the spheroids and the scaffold.
