Sarcococca saligna fabricated gold nanoparticles alleviated in vitro oxidative stress and inflammation in human adipose ‐derived stem cells
This study was carried out to evaluate the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential of bio fabricated GNPs withSarcococca saligna (S. saligna) extract on injured human adipose-derived Mesenchymal stem cells (hADMSCs). GNPs were characterized by ultraviolet –visible (UV–Vis) spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and energy dispersive x-ray (EDS). Phytochemical screening of biosynthesized GNPs exhibited a significant release of polyphenols, that is, total phenolic c ontent (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC). GNPs priming amended ...

In vitro evaluation of cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of porous nickel titanium dental implants produced by metal injection molding technique
AbstractPorous NiTi (pNiTi) is a promising biomaterial for functional long-term implantation that has been produced using various manufacturing techniques and tested for biocompatibility. pNiTi produced using a more recent technology of Metal Injection Molding (MIM) has shown better physical and mechanical properties than those produced by earlier manufacturing methods, but its biocompatibility has yet to be determined. Hence, extracts from pNiTi dental implants produced by MIM were tested for cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in this work. Its toxicity was evaluated at the cellular and in vitro levels using elution and 3-(4,5...

Predicting partitioning from low density polyethylene to blood and adipose tissue by linear solvation energy relationship models
AbstractThe variety of polymers utilized in medical devices demands for testing of extractables and leachables according to ISO 10993-18:2020 in combination with ISO 10993-1:2018. The extraction of the materials involves the use of organic solvents as well as aqueous buffers to cover a wide range of polarity and pH-values, respectively. To estimate patient exposure to chemicals leaching from a polymer in direct body contact, simulating solvents are applied to best mimic the solubilization and partitioning behavior of the related tissue or body fluid. Here we apply linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) models to predi...

Structure and properties of the acellular porcine cornea irradiated with electron beam and its in ‐situ implantation
AbstractDifferent sterilization doses of the electron beam (E-beam) will change the properties of biomaterials and affect their clinical application. Acellular porcine cornea (APC) is a promising corneal substitute to alleviate the shortage of corneal resources. The residual DNA was significantly reduced to 18.50  ± 3.19 ng/mg, and the clearance rate of α-Gal was close to 100% after the treatment with freezing–thawing combined enzyme, indicating that the decellularization was effective. The effects of different E-beam doses at 0, 2, 8, 15, and 25 kGy on the APC were studied. With the increase in irradiation dos...

Osteogenic differentiation and reconstruction of mandible defects using a novel resorbable membrane: An in vitro and in vivo experimental study
AbstractTo evaluate the cellular response of both an intact fish skin membrane and a porcine-derived collagen membrane and investigate the bone healing response of these membranes using a translational, preclinical, guided-bone regeneration (GBR) canine model. Two different naturally sourced membranes were evaluated in this study: (i) an intact fish skin membrane (Kerecis Oral ®, Kerecis) and (ii) a porcine derived collagen (Mucograft®, Geistlich) membrane, positive control. For thein vitro experiments, human osteoprogenitor (hOP) cells were used to assess the cellular viability and proliferation at 24, 48, 72, and 168 ...

Comparative proteomic analysis of regenerative acellular matrices: The effects of tissue source and processing method
AbstractAcellular tissue matrices are used in regenerative medicine from weak tissue re-enforcement to cosmetic augmentation. However, proteomic signatures leading to different clinical outcomes among matrices are not well understood. In an attempt to investigate the effects of tissue source and processing method, we examined by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC –MS/MS) the proteomic profiles of 12 regulatory agency-approved acellular matrices (AlloMax, AlloDerm, CollaMend, Heal-All, JayyaLife, ReGen, Renov, Strattice, SurgiMend, Surgisis, UniTrump and Vidasis). The compositions of acellular matrices va...

Optimizing fabrication parameters via Taguchi method for production of high yield hydroxyapatite microsphere scaffolds using Drop ‐on‐Demand inkjet method
AbstractDrop on demand (DOD) inkjet method is a cost-efficient way of producing hydroxyapatite (HAp) microsphere scaffolds with narrow size distribution. However, DOD fabrication parameters may influence the yield and characteristics of the microsphere scaffolds. Testing different permutations and combinations of fabrication parameters is costly and time consuming. Taguchi method could be used as a predictive tool for optimizing the key fabrication parameters to produce HAp microspheres with desired yield and properties, minimizing the number of experimental combinations to be tested. The aim of this study is to investigat...

Injectable and self ‐healing dual crosslinked gelatin/kappa‐carrageenan methacryloyl hybrid hydrogels via host‐guest supramolecular interaction for wound healing
Gelatin/kappa-carrageenan-based self-healing dual crosslinked hybrid hydrogel for wound healing. AbstractInjectable hydrogels based on natural polymers have shown great potential for various tissue engineering applications, such as wound healing. However, poor mechanical properties and weak self-healing ability are still major challenges. In this work, we introduce a host-guest (HG) supramolecular interaction between acrylate- β-cyclodextrin (Ac-β-CD) conjugated on methacrylated kappa-carrageenan (MA-κ-CA) and aromatic residues on gelatin to provide self-healing characteristics. We synthesize an MA-κ-CA to conjugate Ac...

Engineering a multicompartment in vitro model for dorsal root ganglia phenotypic assessment
AbstractDespite the significant global prevalence of chronic pain, current methods to identify pain therapeutics often fail translation to the clinic. Phenotypic screening platforms rely on modeling and assessing key pathologies relevant to chronic pain, improving predictive capability. Patients with chronic pain often present with sensitization of primary sensory neurons (that extend from dorsal root ganglia [DRG]). During neuronal sensitization, painful nociceptors display lowered stimulation thresholds. To model neuronal excitability, it is necessary to maintain three key anatomical features of DRGs to have a physiologi...

Decellularized bladder as scaffold to support proliferation and functionality of insulin ‐secreting pancreatic cells
In this study, a cell culture system has been designed to study the effect of decellularized porcine bladder pieces on INS-1 cells, a cell line secreting insulin in resp onse to glucose stimulation. Porcine bladders were decellularized using two techniques: a detergent-containing and a detergent-free methods. The resulting ECMs were characterized for the removal of both cells and dsDNA. INS-1 cells were not viable on ECM produced using detergent (i.e., sodium dodecyl sulfate). INS-1 cells were visualized following 7  days of culture on detergent-free decellularized bladders using a cell viability and metabolism assay (MT...
