Article Abstract
Background: The periosteum plays a crucial role in the development and injury healing process of bone. The purpose of this study was to construct a biomimetic periosteum with a double cell sheet for bone tissue regeneration.
Methods: , the human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) sheet was first fabricated by adding 50 μg/ml ascorbic acid to the cell sheet induction medium. Characterization of the hAMSCs sheet was tested by general observation, microscopic observation, live/dead staining, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Afterwards, the osteogenic cell sheet and vascular cell sheet were constructed and evaluated by general observation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, Alizarin Red S staining, SEM, live/dead staining and CD31 immunofluorescent staining for characterization. Then, we prepared the double cell sheet. , rat calvarial defect model was introduced to verify the regeneration of bone defects treated by different methods. Calvarial defects (diameter: 4 mm) were created of Sprague-Dawley rats. The rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: the control group, the osteogenic cell sheet group, the vascular cell sheet group and the double cell sheet group. Macroscopic, micro-CT and histological evaluations of the regenerated bone were performed to assess the treatment results at 8 weeks and 12 weeks after surgery.
Results: , hAMSCs sheet was successfully prepared. The hAMSCs sheet consisted of a large number of live hAMSCs and abundant extracellular matrix (ECM) that secreted by hAMSCs, as evidenced by macroscopic/microscopic observation, live/dead staining, SEM and HE staining. Besides, the osteogenic cell sheet and the vascular cell sheet were successfully prepared, which were verified by general observation, ALP staining, Alizarin Red S staining, SEM and CD31 immunofluorescent staining. , the macroscopic observation and micro-CT results both demonstrated that the double cell sheet group had better effect on bone regeneration than other groups. In addition, histological assessments indicated that large amounts of new bone had formed in the calvarial defects and more mature collagen in the double cell sheet group.
Conclusion: The double cell sheet could promote to repair calvarial defects of rats and accelerate bone regeneration.
The Translational Potential Of This Article: We successfully constructed a biomimetic cell-sheet-engineered periosteum with a double cell sheet by a simple, low-cost and effective method. This biomimetic periosteum may be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of bone defects, which may be used in clinic in the future.

As light sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) becomes widely available, reconstruction of time-lapse imaging will further our understanding of complex biological processes at cellular resolution. Here, we present a comprehensive workflow for in toto capture, processing, and analysis of multi-view LSFM experiments using the ex vivo mouse embryo as a model system of development. Our protocol describes imaging on a commercial LSFM instrument followed by computational analysis in discrete segments, using open-source software.

Aims: Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) exhibit an enormous potential to regenerate periodontal tissue. However, their translatability to the clinical setting is constrained by technical difficulties in standardizing culture conditions. The aim was to assess complex culture conditions using a proteomic-based protocol to standardize multi-layer hPDLSC cultivation methodology.

This paper presents a novel design approach for an anomalous reflector metasurface for communication systems operating at 8 GHz band. The main contribution of this work is the development of a general analytical method that accurately calculates the electromagnetic response of realistic metasurfaces with periodic impedance profiles. The modulated surface impedance is achieved by incorporating appropriately sized conductive patches on a grounded dielectric substrate.

Monitoring subcellular organelle dynamics in real time and precisely assessing membrane heterogeneity in living cells are very important for studying fundamental biological mechanisms and gaining a comprehensive understanding of cellular processes. However, there remains a shortage of effective tools for these purposes. Herein, we propose a strategy to develop the exchangeable water-sensing probeAPBD for time-lapse imaging of dynamics in cellular membrane-bound organelle morphology with structured illumination microscopy at the nanoscale.

Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is a rare and aggressive B-cell lymphoma typically associated with human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) and Epstein-Barr virus infections. It classically presents as a malignant effusion in body cavities, but rarely presents with an extracavitary variant characterized by solid tumors in lymph nodes or extranodal sites such as the gastrointestinal tract, skin, lungs, and nervous system. This case report describes an unusual presentation of primary cutaneous extracavitary PEL in an HIV-positive patient that has only been reported in 8 cases previously.
