Oxygenating biomaterials can alleviate anoxic stress, stimulate vascularization, and improve engraftment of cellularized implants. However, the effects of oxygen-generating materials on tissue formation have remained largely unknown. Here, we investigate the impact of calcium peroxide (CPO)-based oxygen-generating microparticles (OMPs) on the osteogenic fate of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) under a severely oxygen deficient microenvironment. To this end, CPO is microencapsulated in polycaprolactone to generate OMPs with prolonged oxygen release. Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels containing osteogenesis-inducing silicate nanoparticles (SNP hydrogels), OMPs (OMP hydrogels), or both SNP and OMP (SNP/OMP hydrogels) are engineered to comparatively study their effect on the osteogenic fate of hMSCs. OMP hydrogels associate with improved osteogenic differentiation under both normoxic and anoxic conditions. Bulk mRNAseq analyses suggest that OMP hydrogels under anoxia regulate osteogenic differentiation pathways more strongly than SNP/OMP or SNP hydrogels under either anoxia or normoxia. Subcutaneous implantations reveal a stronger host cell invasion in SNP hydrogels, resulting in increased vasculogenesis. Furthermore, time-dependent expression of different osteogenic factors reveals progressive differentiation of hMSCs in OMP, SNP, and SNP/OMP hydrogels. Our work demonstrates that endowing hydrogels with OMPs can induce, improve, and steer the formation of functional engineered living tissues, which holds potential for numerous biomedical applications, including tissue regeneration and organ replacement therapy.

Article Synopsis
- Oral mucosal ulcers are common, affecting over 25% of people, but existing treatments fail to effectively manage issues like bleeding and infection.
- A new multifunctional oral gel called MPCST has been developed using a tannic acid-thioctic acid hydrogel, designed for better tissue adhesion and the ability to absorb fluids.
- When the gel is exposed to near-infrared light, it releases nitric oxide to promote healing and has significant antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant effects, proving more effective than standard treatments in animal studies.

Skin wound infection has become a notable medical threat. Herein, the polysaccharide-based injectable hydrogels with multifunctionality were developed by a simple and fast gelation process not only to inactivate bacteria but also to accelerate bacteria-infected wound healing. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP) loaded PCN-224 nanoparticles were introduced into the polymer matrix formed by the dynamic and reversible coordinate bonds between Ag with carboxyl and amino or hydroxyl groups on carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS), hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions in the polymer to fabricate SNP@PCN@Gel hydrogels.

Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has great potential in the applications of tissue engineering, including cell culturing meat, because of its versatility and bioimitability. However, existing bio-inks used as edible scaffold materials lack high biocompatibility and mechanical strength to enable cell growth inside. Here, we added starch nanoparticles (SNPs) in a gelatin/sodium alginate (Gel/SA) hydrogel to enhance printing and supporting properties and created a microenvironment for adherent proliferation of piscine satellite cells (PSCs).

Burns are a significant public health issue worldwide, resulting in prolonged hospitalization, disfigurement, disability and, in severe cases, death. Among them, deep second-degree burns are often accompanied by bacterial infections, insufficient blood flow, excessive skin fibroblasts proliferation and collagen deposition, all of which contribute to poor wound healing and scarring following recovery. In this study, SNP/MCNs-SKN-chitosan-β-glycerophosphate hydrogel (MSSH), a hydrogel composed of a temperature-sensitive chitosan-β-glycerophosphate hydrogel matrix (CGH), mesoporous carbon nanospheres (MCNs), nitric oxide (NO) donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and anti-scarring substance shikonin (SKN), is intended for use as a biomedical material.

Electrically conductive biomaterials and nanomaterials have demonstrated great potential in the development of functional and mature cardiac tissues. In particular, gold nanomaterials have emerged as promising candidates due to their biocompatibility and ease of fabrication for cardiac tissue engineering utilizing rat- or stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs). However, despite significant advancements, it is still not clear whether the enhancement in cardiac tissue function is primarily due to the electroconductivity features of gold nanoparticles or the structural changes of the scaffold resulting from the addition of these nanoparticles.
