Natural bone is a highly vascularized tissue that relies on the vasculature for blood and nutrients supply to maintain skeletal integrity. Bioactive nanomaterials with the capability of improving vascularized bone regeneration are highly demanded for bone tissue engineering. In this work, 2D silicon phosphorus (SiP) is explored as a new kind of bioactive and biodegradable nanomaterial with excellent angiogenesis and osteogenesis, and a 3D printed biohybrid hydrogel of GelMA-PEGDA incorporated with photocrosslinkable SiP-nanosheet (GelMA-PEGDA/SiPAC) is developed to apply on bone tissue engineering. Findings show that the GelMA-PEGDA/SiPAC possessess excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, and can sustainably release Si and P elements. Compared with the biohybrid hydrogel scaffolds incorporated with black phosphorus nanosheets, the GelMA-PEGDA/SiPAC can further enhance the osteogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells, and tubular networking of human umbilical vascular endothelial cells. In a rat calvarial bone defect model, the superior angiogenesis and osteogenesis induced by GelMA-PEGDA/SiPAC have been confirmed in vivo. The current strategy paves a new way to design a multifunctional SiP nanocomposite scaffold on mediating the osteogenesis and angiogenesis in one system, and provides a bioactive and biodegradable alternative nanomaterial for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Background: The cellular prion protein (PrP), a glycoprotein encoded by the PRNP gene, is known to modulate muscle mass and exercise capacity. However, the role of PrP in the maintenance and regeneration of skeletal muscle during ageing remains unclear.
Methods: This study investigated the change in PrP expression during muscle formation using C2C12 cells and evaluated muscle function in Prnp wild-type (WT) and knock-out (KO) mice at different ages (1, 9 and 15 months).

Objective: Polycaprolactone (PCL) is a widely applied biomaterial in bone tissue engineering (BTE) due to its superior mechanical properties and biodegradability. However, the high hydrophobicity and low cell adhesion properties of PCL show limited cell interactions. Herein, we prepared the porous PCL/DBP composites with improved cell adhesion through the addition of demineralized bone powder (DBP).

It is crucial to understand the glucose control within our bodies. Bariatric/metabolic surgeries, including laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), provide an avenue for exploring the potential key factors involved in maintaining glucose homeostasis since these surgeries have shown promising results in improving glycemic control among patients with severe type 2 diabetes (T2D). For the first time, a markedly altered population of serum proteins in patients after LSG was discovered and analyzed through proteomics.

In addition to their pivotal roles in energy storage and expenditure, adipose tissues play a crucial part in the secretion of bioactive molecules, including peptides, lipids, metabolites, and extracellular vesicles, in response to physiological stimulation and metabolic stress. These secretory factors, through autocrine and paracrine mechanisms, regulate various processes within adipose tissues. These processes include adipogenesis, glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammation, and adaptive thermogenesis, all of which are essential for the maintenance of the balance and functionality of the adipose tissue micro-environment.
