Its primary function is to transmit vibratory energy (sound pressure) from the air to the cochlear fluids via the ossicular chain. This part of the ear can be damaged by cholesteatoma, which can affect all three ossicles, necessitating ossiculoplasty to restore sound transmission. Ossiculoplasty is the preferred intervention for restoring the mechanism of sound transmission in patients with ossicular deformities. However, the complexity and extended duration of the surgery can significantly impact the patient's quality of life. To address these challenges, our work employs 3D printing technology for the reconstruction of the patient's ear ossicles. This involves detailed 3D modeling and reconstruction of the ear ossicles to obtain precise measurements and visualize the unique anatomical structure of each patient. The model presented in this study is a prototype designed to validate the form and dimensions of a total ossicular replacement prosthesis. Our radiologists and traumatologists reviewed both the form and dimensions and deemed them realistic, ensuring they aligned with clinical requirements. It is important that medical devices, especially those designed for long-term implantation, must undergo strict regulatory testing, which can take several years. Standards such as International Organization for Standardization 13485, 14971, and 5832 require thorough validation to ensure safety, effectiveness, and quality. While this prototype represents an important step, further testing, and regulatory approval will be necessary before it can be used in clinical settings. By leveraging advanced materials and precise 3D printing techniques, these custom-made prostheses simplify the surgical procedure and enhance patient outcomes by providing tailored solutions that meet specific anatomical and functional needs. This innovative approach represents a significant advancement in treating ossicular deformities, ensuring both efficacy and improved patient satisfaction.</p>","PeriodicalId":72389,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical materials (Bristol, England)","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144050969","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}

Targeted drug delivery systems may overcome the existing limitations. Utilizing the concept of overexpression of folate receptors (FRs) in ovarian carcinoma, we have designed FRs-targeted drug delivery systems (AgNNPs-FA) by combining silver nitroprusside nanoparticles (AgNNPs) because of their inherent anticancer properties, as established by our group, and folic acid (FA) as targeting agent that attack FRs in this study. Initially, both AgNNPs and AgNNPs-FA were designed and later characterized using several analytical tools such as dynamic light scattering, x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, high-performance liquid chromatography, and Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, etc. The<i>in vitro</i>cell viability assay in a Chinese hamster ovary cell line suggests the biocompatible nature of AgNNPs-FA. The targeted anticancer activity of the AgNNPs-FA is established in human ovarian adenocarcinoma (SK-OV-3) via several<i>in vitro</i>assays and compared with AgNNPs. All<i>in vitro</i>assays (cell viability assay, thymidine incorporation assay, scratch assay, cell cycle, apoptosis assay, and tunnel assay) in SK-OV-3 and<i>in vivo</i>experiments (chorioallantoic membrane assay) in fertilized eggs with AgNNPs-FA exhibit more anticancer activity in a targeted fashion than AgNNPs. The plausible mechanisms behind the anticancer activity of the nanoparticles were demonstrated using the ROS assay (DCFDA and DHE staining), JC-1 staining, immunocytochemistry staining (Ki-67), and Western blot analysis.

Therefore, there is a growing demand for biomaterials that are less likely to cause foreign body reactions. Given that a tissue with a functionally superior three-dimensional (3D) structure can replace autologous tissue and artificial materials, we have developed a 3D cultured cartilage tissue without scaffolding material and are working toward its practical application. To achieve an off-the-shelf product that allows prolonged storage, the tissue was fixed with glutaraldehyde to maintain high strength for subsequent processing and management.

We generated 3D cultured cartilage tissues using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived limb bud mesenchymal cells and an original cell self-culture aggregation method.

A significant increase in the number of myelinated axons in OGMC was found. In addition, the latency values in OGMC were more critical than in the OGABS and OGPRP groups, indicating better myelination.
