Regeneration of large bone defects remains a clinical challenge until today. While existing biomaterials are predominantly addressing healing via direct, intramembranous ossification (IO), tissue formation cartilage phase, so-called endochondral (EO) has been shown to be promising alternative strategy. However, pure biomaterial approaches for EO induction sparse and the knowledge how material components can have bioactive contribution required is limited. Here, we combined previously developed purely architecture-driven approach with release therapeutic metal ions from tailored silicate microparticles. The delivery platform was free calcium phosphates (CaP) that known support IO but not employed lithium (Li), magnesium (Mg), strontium (Sr) or zinc (Zn) ions. We identified an ion-specific cellular response in which certain strongly enhanced cell recruitment into showed superior chondrogenesis deposition collagen II by human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). At same time, some cases microparticle incorporation altered mechanical properties consequences cell-induced contraction scaffold wall deformation. Collectively, results suggest metal-doped microparticles potential further improve bioactivity architectured defect EO. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Endochondral healing, process resembles embryonic skeletal development, gained prominence regenerative medicine. most strategies optimized instead target direct through IO. report on novel accelerate biomaterial-guided combining cell-guiding scaffolds other strategies, such as hypoxia-mimic drugs iron-chelating biomaterials, documented literature before enhance EO, our uniquely implements strategy regeneration.

Abstract Excessive bone marrow adipocytes (BMAds) accumulation often occurs under diverse pathophysiological conditions associated with deterioration. Estrogen-related receptor α (ESRRA) is a key regulator responding to metabolic stress. Here, we show that adipocyte-specific ESRRA deficiency preserves osteogenesis and vascular formation in adipocyte-rich upon estrogen or obesity. Mechanistically, adipocyte interferes E2/ESR1 signaling resulting transcriptional repression of secreted phosphoprotein 1 ( Spp1 ); yet positively modulates leptin expression by binding its promoter. abrogation results enhanced SPP1 decreased secretion from both visceral BMAds, concertedly dictating stromal stem cell fate commitment restoring type H vessel formation, constituting feed-forward loop for formation. Pharmacological inhibition protects obese mice against loss high adiposity. Thus, our findings highlight therapeutic approach via targeting preserve especially detrimental milieu.

Abstract Reconstructing large, inflammatory maxillofacial defects using stem cell-based therapy faces challenges from adverse microenvironments, including high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inadequate oxygen, and intensive inflammation. Here, inspired by the reaction mechanisms intracellular antioxidant defense systems, we propose de novo design an artificial antioxidase Ru-doped layered double hydroxide (Ru-hydroxide) for efficient redox homeostasis bone regeneration. Our studies demonstrate that Ru-hydroxide consists hydroxyls-synergistic monoatomic Ru centers, which efficiently react with collaborate hydroxyls rapid proton electron transfer, thus exhibiting efficient, broad-spectrum, robust ROS scavenging performance. Moreover, can effectively sustain cell viability osteogenic differentiation in elevated environments, modulating microenvironment during tissue regeneration male mice. We believe this development offers a promising avenue designing antioxidase-like materials to treat various inflammation-associated disorders, arthritis, diabetic wounds, enteritis, fractures.

Critical-sized segmental bone defects cannot heal spontaneously, leading to disability and significant increase in mortality. However, current treatments utilizing grafts face a variety of challenges from donor availability poor osseointegration. Drugs such as growth factors cancer risk are very costly. Here, porous bioceramic scaffold that promotes regeneration via solely mechanobiological design is reported. Two types scaffolds with high versus low pore curvatures created using high-precision 3D printing technology fabricate radius the 100s micrometers. While both able support formation, high-curvature pores induce higher ectopic formation increased vessel invasion. Scaffolds also promote faster critical-sized by activating mechanosensitive pathways. High-curvature recruits skeletal stem cells type H vessels periosteum marrow during early phase repair. have survival transplanted GFP-labeled (SSCs) recruit more host SSCs.
