Meniscal injury presents a formidable challenge and often leads to functional impairment and osteoarthritic progression. Meniscus tissue engineering (MTE) is a promising solution, as conventional strategies for modulating local immune responses and generating a conducive microenvironment for effective tissue repair are lacking. Recently, magnesium-containing bioactive glass nanospheres (Mg-BGNs) have shown promise in tissue regeneration.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study explores how eupalinolide A (EA) can prevent abnormal bone formation in tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs), which is important for treating traumatic heterotopic ossification (HO).
  • - EA was found to inhibit the osteogenic differentiation of TDSCs by targeting the YAP signaling pathway, promoting YAP's degradation through a specific autophagy pathway.
  • - In mouse models, local injections of EA successfully reduced tendon HO following trauma, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic agent and suggesting that targeting HECW1 involved in YAP degradation could be a new treatment strategy.

Despite numerous studies on chondrogenesis, the repair of cartilage-particularly the reconstruction of cartilage lacunae through an all-in-one advanced drug delivery system remains limited. In this study, we developed a cartilage lacuna-like hydrogel microsphere system endowed with integrated biological signals, enabling sequential immunomodulation and endogenous articular cartilage regeneration. We first integrated the chondrogenic growth factor transforming growth factor-β3 (TGF-β3) into mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs).

The pathogenesis of trauma-induced heterotopic ossification (HO) in the tendon remains unclear, posing a challenging hurdle in treatment. Recognizing inflammation as the root cause of HO, anti-inflammatory agents hold promise for its management. Malvidin (MA), possessing anti-inflammatory properties, emerges as a potential agent to impede HO progression.

Background: The design of DNA materials with specific nanostructures for biomedical tissue engineering applications remains a challenge. High-dimensional DNA nanomaterials are difficult to prepare and are unstable; moreover, their synthesis relies on heavy metal ions. Herein, we developed a bimodal DNA self-origami material with good biocompatibility and differing functions using a simple synthesis method.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the use of human articular cartilage-derived extracellular matrix (hACECM) combined with the microfracture (MF) technique to enhance cartilage repair, as current research has not investigated this combination in sheep models.
  • The hypothesis suggests that using both hACECM and MF together will lead to better cartilage repair compared to using each method separately.
  • Initial results indicate that the groups using hACECM alone or with MF showed significantly improved cartilage regeneration compared to those treated with MF alone or no treatment, as assessed over 3, 6, and 12 months.

Background: Currently, there are no specific drugs or targets available for the treatment of tendinopathy. However, inflammation has recently been found to play a pivotal role in tendinopathy progression, thereby identifying it as a potential therapeutic target. Carpaine (CA) exhibits potential anti-inflammatory pharmacological properties and may offer a therapeutic option for tendinopathy.

Engineering chem-/sono-/photo-multimodal antitumor therapies has become an efficient strategy to combat malignant tumors. However, the existence of hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME) leads to limited sonodynamic or photodynamic efficiency because O is the key reactant during the process of generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Here, to design a desirable platform that can simultaneously convert HO in the TME into ROS and O for efficient chem-/sono-/photo-multimodal tumor therapies, we have created ultrasmall CuO-coordinated carbon nitride on a biocompatible ceria substrate (denoted as CuO-CN@CeO) a self-assisted catalytic growth strategy.

Developing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging nanostructures to protect and regulate stem cells has emerged as an intriguing strategy for promoting tissue regeneration, especially in trauma microenvironments or refractory wounds. Here, an electronic modulated metal oxide is developed via Mn atom substitutions in Co O nanocrystalline (Mn-Co O ) for highly efficient and multifaceted catalytic ROS-scavenging to reverse the fates of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in oxidative-stress microenvironments. Benefiting from the atomic Mn-substitution and charge transfer from Mn to Co, the Co site in Mn-Co O displays an increased ratio of Co /Co and improved redox properties, thus enhancing its intrinsic and broad-spectrum catalytic ROS-scavenging activities, which surpasses most of the currently reported metal oxides.

Background: The regeneration and repair of articular cartilage remains a major challenge for clinicians and scientists due to the poor intrinsic healing of this tissue. Since cartilage injuries are often clinically irregular, tissue-engineered scaffolds that can be easily molded to fill cartilage defects of any shape that fit tightly into the host cartilage are needed.

Method: In this study, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) affinity peptide sequence PFSSTKT (PFS)-modified chondrocyte extracellular matrix (ECM) particles combined with GelMA hydrogel were constructed.

Tissue engineering provides a promising avenue for treating cartilage defects. However, great challenges remain in the development of structurally and functionally optimized scaffolds for cartilage repair and regeneration. In this study, decellularized cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) and waterborne polyurethane (WPU) were employed to construct WPU and WPU-ECM scaffolds by water-based 3D printing using low-temperature deposition manufacturing (LDM) system, which combines rapid deposition manufacturing with phase separation techniques.

Appropriate biomimetic scaffolds created via 3D bioprinting are promising methods for treating damaged menisci. However, given the unique anatomical structure and complex stress environment of the meniscus, many studies have adopted various techniques to take full advantage of different materials, such as the printing combined with infusion, or electrospining, to chase the biomimetic meniscus, which makes the process complicated to some extent. Some researchers have tried to tackle the challenges only by 3D biopringting, while its alternative materials and models have been constrained.
