Current strategies for articular cartilage repair

European Cells & Materials, 2005
Defects of articular cartilage that do not penetrate to the subchondral bone fail to heal spontaneously. Defects that penetrate to the subchondral bone elicit an intrinsic repair response that yields a fibrocartilaginous repair tissue which is a poor ...

Smart Bioinks for 4D Bioprinting: Requirements, Design, and Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Smart bioinks empower 4D‐bioprinted constructs to dynamically adapt and remodel in response to stimuli, effectively biomimicking native tissues. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) play a guiding role in their rational design by optimizing relevant properties.

Strengthening Constitutive Motifs in Isotropic Fibrous Hydrogel for Exceptional Damage Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An orientation‐free strategy is reported for fabricating damage‐resistant hydrogels by strengthening constitutive motifs in isotropic fibrous (IF) networks. Through nonsolvent quenching followed by salting‐out, IF networks are generated and their multiscale constituents are subsequently reinforced, yielding dense and crystalline isotropic nanofiber ...

Closing the Loop: High‐Precision 3D Photofabrication in Living Tissues

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Writing 3D microstructures inside living tissue demands more than laser access; It demands information. Hierarchical sensing captures thermal and mechanical states across pulse‐train, voxel, and structure timescales, feeding a controller that steers the laser in real time.

Persistent Zn2+ Influx‐Mediated Deacetylation of ANXA2 Regulates the “Zn2+‐Autophagic Flux” and Alleviates Intervertebral Disc Degeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Zinc transporter SLC39A14 sustains intracellular Zn2+ levels to activate SIRT3‑dependent ANXA2 deacetylation at K302. This modification weakens ANXA2‑mTOR binding and releases autophagic‑flux suppression in nucleus pulposus cells. Dysregulated Zn2+ homeostasis disrupts this axis to drive intervertebral disc degeneration.

Cartilage repair: the role of a scaffold in the repair of a cartilage lesion

, 2018
Long-lasting repair of articular cartilage lesions remains a clinical unmet need, despite the multiple distinct approaches clinically implemented in the last decades. Under this thesis, a thorough literature review and analysis was performed in order to understand what the current clinical and scientific practices are, and what are their main reported ...

Nascent Extracellular Matrix Converts Biomaterial Cues into Cell Fate Decisions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a tri‐directional interplay among cells, hydrogels, and their nascent extracellular matrix. Hydrogel norbornene modification alters CD44‐mediated cell–hydrogel interactions, which shape nascent matrix deposition, composition, and spatial organization.

Bioenergetic Materials for Tissue Regeneration: Modulating Metabolism to Promote Cellular Anabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bioenergetic materials (BEMs) modulate cellular metabolism to promote tissue regeneration. Their principal mechanisms of action include metabolic substrate supplementation, metabolic enzyme modulation, organelle transfer, electrical current regulation, redox homeostasis modulation, and oxygen tension modulation.

Oral Recombinant Human Collagen III Protects Gastric Mucosa via G‐Quadruplex‐Mediated Activation of the Pla2g4a‐Prostaglandin Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Orally administered recombinant human type III collagen protects the gastric mucosa from ethanol‐induced injury by coordinating redox homeostasis, epithelial barrier repair, and arachidonic acid–prostaglandin metabolism. Gastric digestion releases the pentapeptide GPAEF, which interacts with the Pla2g4a promoter G‐quadruplex in a structure‐dependent ...

Targeted‐Penetrating Biomimetic Hybrid Transfersomes for Enhanced Transdermal Gene Transfection in Hypertrophic Scar Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Hypertrophic scar fibroblasts membrane‐hybridized cationic transfersomes enable efficient loading and transdermal delivery of TGF‐β1 siRNA through multiple skin penetration pathways. The biomimetic platform enhances homotypic targeting, transfection, and immune evasion, suppresses TGF‐β1‐driven fibrotic signaling, and reduces extracellular matrix ...
