Development of pluripotent stem cell-derived epidermal organoids that generate effective extracellular vesicles in skin regeneration
Biomaterials. 2024 Feb 23;307:122522. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122522. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCellular skin substitutes such as epidermal constructs have been developed for various applications, including wound healing and skin regeneration. These cellular models are mostly derived from primary cells such as keratinocytes and fibroblasts in a two-dimensional (2D) state, and further development of three-dimensional (3D) cultured organoids is needed to provide insight into the in vivo epidermal phenotype and physiology. Here, we report the development of epidermal organoids (EpiOs) generated from induced pluri...

Multichannel-optical imaging for in vivo evaluating the safety and therapeutic efficacy of stem cells in tumor model in terms of cell tropism, proliferation and NF- κB activity
Biomaterials. 2024 Feb 23;307:122510. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122510. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStem cell-based cancer treatment has garnered significant attention, yet its safety and efficacy remain incompletely understood. The nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathway, a critical signaling mechanism involved in tumor growth, angiogenesis, and invasion, serves as an essential metric for evaluating the behavior of stem cells in tumor models. Herein, we report the development of a triple-channel imaging system capable of simultaneously monitoring the tropism of stem cells towards tumors, assessing tumor prolifera...

Honeycomb-inspired ZIF-sealed interface enhances osseointegration via anti-infection and osteoimmunomodulation
Biomaterials. 2024 Feb 21;307:122515. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122515. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTImplant-associated infections (IAIs) pose a significant threat to orthopedic surgeries. Bacteria colonizing the surface of implants disrupt bone formation-related cells and interfere with the osteoimmune system, resulting in an impaired immune microenvironment and osteogenesis disorders. Inspired by nature, a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF)-sealed smart drug delivery system on Ti substrates (ZSTG) was developed for the "natural-artificial dual-enzyme intervention (NADEI)" strategy to address these challenges.

Smart composite scaffold to synchronize magnetic hyperthermia and chemotherapy for efficient breast cancer therapy
Biomaterials. 2024 Feb 20;307:122511. doi: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2024.122511. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCombination of different therapies is an attractive approach for cancer therapy. However, it is a challenge to synchronize different therapies for maximization of therapeutic effects. In this work, a smart composite scaffold that could synchronize magnetic hyperthermia and chemotherapy was prepared by hybridization of magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles and doxorubicin (Dox)-loaded thermosensitive liposomes with biodegradable polymers. Irradiation of alternating magnetic field (AMF) could not only increase the scaffold tem...
