Bi-functional nanoparticle-stabilized hydrogel colloidosomes as both extracellular matrix and bioactive factor delivery vehicle.

ABSTRACT: Maintaining both cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions is often a critical component of three-dimensional (3D) tissue regeneration. In high-density cell condensation systems, lack of appropriate cell-ECM interactions can result in limited and/or slow cell differentiation and tissue formation. To address these problems, a colloidosome microsphere system that is composed of a gelatin hydrogel core and a porous nanoparticle shell is developed. The colloidosome microsphere functions as an ECM and morphogen carrier for the induction of cartilage formation of high-density human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) in 3D cultures. With the protection of the nanoparticle shell, the colloidosome microspheres can be readily suspended in aqueous solution without clumping, thus incorporated homogeneously within high-density cell condensations. The gelatin-based colloidosome microspheres stimulate chondrogenesis of hMSCs and degrade rapidly to facilitate ECM remodeling for new tissue formation. When loaded with human transforming growth factor-β1, a potent chondrogenic morphogen, the colloidosomes serve as a bioactive factor delivery vehicle as well. The dual functionality of the colloidosomes as an ECM and a growth factor carrier effectively supports the chondrogenic differentiation of high-density hMSC condensations. These capabilities render the colloidosomes a promising platform system amenable to large-scale production of high-density 3D tissue culture constructs.

Hydrogel containing nanoparticle-stabilized liposomes for topical antimicrobial delivery.

Project description:Adsorbing small charged nanoparticles onto the outer surfaces of liposomes has become an effective strategy to stabilize liposomes against fusion prior to "seeing" target bacteria, yet allow them to fuse with the bacteria upon arrival at the infection sites. As a result, nanoparticle-stabilized liposomes have become an emerging drug delivery platform for treatment of various bacterial infections. To facilitate the translation of this platform for clinical tests and uses, herein we integrate nanoparticle-stabilized liposomes with hydrogel technology for more effective and sustained topical drug delivery. The hydrogel formulation not only preserves the structural integrity of the nanoparticle-stabilized liposomes, but also allows for controllable viscoeleasticity and tunable liposome release rate. Using Staphylococcus aureus bacteria as a model pathogen, we demonstrate that the hydrogel formulation can effectively release nanoparticle-stabilized liposomes to the bacterial culture, which subsequently fuse with bacterial membrane in a pH-dependent manner. When topically applied onto mouse skin, the hydrogel formulation does not generate any observable skin toxicity within a 7-day treatment. Collectively, the hydrogel containing nanoparticle-stabilized liposomes hold great promise for topical applications against various microbial infections.

A hydrogel derived from decellularized dermal extracellular matrix.

Project description:The ECM of mammalian tissues has been used as a scaffold to facilitate the repair and reconstruction of numerous tissues. Such scaffolds are prepared in many forms including sheets, powders, and hydrogels. ECM hydrogels provide advantages such as injectability, the ability to fill an irregularly shaped space, and the inherent bioactivity of native matrix. However, material properties of ECM hydrogels and the effect of these properties upon cell behavior are neither well understood nor controlled. The objective of this study was to prepare and determine the structure, mechanics, and the cell response in vitro and in vivo of ECM hydrogels prepared from decellularized porcine dermis and urinary bladder tissues. Dermal ECM hydrogels were characterized by a more dense fiber architecture and greater mechanical integrity than urinary bladder ECM hydrogels, and showed a dose dependent increase in mechanical properties with ECM concentration. In vitro, dermal ECM hydrogels supported greater C2C12 myoblast fusion, and less fibroblast infiltration and less fibroblast mediated hydrogel contraction than urinary bladder ECM hydrogels. Both hydrogels were rapidly infiltrated by host cells, primarily macrophages, when implanted in a rat abdominal wall defect. Both ECM hydrogels degraded by 35 days in vivo, but UBM hydrogels degraded more quickly, and with greater amounts of myogenesis than dermal ECM. These results show that ECM hydrogel properties can be varied and partially controlled by the scaffold tissue source, and that these properties can markedly affect cell behavior.

Extracellular matrix hydrogel therapies: In vivo applications and development.

Project description:Decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) has been widely used for tissue engineering applications and is becoming increasingly versatile as it can take many forms, including patches, powders, and hydrogels. Following additional processing, decellularized ECM can form an inducible hydrogel that can be injected, providing for new minimally-invasive procedure opportunities. ECM hydrogels have been derived from numerous tissue sources and applied to treat many disease models, such as ischemic injuries and organ regeneration or replacement. This review will focus on in vivo applications of ECM hydrogels and functional outcomes in disease models, as well as discuss considerations for clinical translation.Statement of significanceExtracellular matrix (ECM) hydrogel therapies are being developed to treat diseased or damaged tissues and organs throughout the body. Many ECM hydrogels are progressing from in vitro models to in vivo biocompatibility studies and functional models. There is significant potential for clinical translation of these therapies since one ECM hydrogel therapy is already in a Phase 1 clinical trial.

Bioactive extracellular matrix fragments in lung health and disease.

Project description:The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the noncellular component critical in the maintenance of organ structure and the regulation of tissue development, organ structure, and cellular signaling. The ECM is a dynamic entity that undergoes continuous degradation and resynthesis. In addition to compromising structure, degradation of the ECM can liberate bioactive fragments that cause cellular activation and chemotaxis of a variety of cells. These fragments are termed matrikines, and their cellular activities are sentinel in the development and progression of tissue injury seen in chronic lung disease. Here, we discuss the matrikines that are known to be active in lung biology and their roles in lung disease. We also consider the use of matrikines as disease markers and potential therapeutic targets in lung disease.

Extracellular matrix hydrogel derived from decellularized tissues enables endoderm organoids culture

Project description:Organoids have extensive therapeutic potential and are increasingly opening up new avenues within regenerative medicine. However, the clinical application is greatly limited by the lack of effective GMP-compliant systems for organoid expansion in culture. Here, we envisage that the use of extracellular matrix hydrogels derived from decellularized tissues (DT) can provide an environment capable of directing cell growth. These gels possess the biochemical signature of tissue-specific ECM, and have the potential for clinical translation. Gels from decellularized porcine small intestinal mucosa/submucosa enable formation and growth of endoderm-derived human organoids, such as gastric, liver, pancreas, and small intestine. ECM gels could be used for direct organoids derivation from human biopsies, multiple passages with transcriptomic signature comparable to gold standard culture system, and in vivo organoid delivery. The development of these ECM-derived hydrogels opens up the potential for human organoids to be used clinically.

Extracellular matrix hydrogel derived from decellularized tissues enables endoderm organoids culture

Project description:Organoids have huge therapeutic potential and are increasingly opening up new avenues within regenerative medicine. However, the clinical application is greatly limited by the lack of effective GMP-complaint systems for organoid expansion in culture. Here, we envisage that the use of extracellular matrix hydrogels derived from decellularized tissues (DT) can provide the instructive native environment necessary to direct cell growth. These gels possess the biochemical signature of tissue-specific ECM, and have the potential for clinical translation due to their natural, non-carcinogenic origin. We show that gels developed from decellularized porcine small intestinal mucosa have similar physiological range and mechanical properties to commercially available gels. ECM-derived gels enable formation and growth of endoderm-derived organoids and, moreover, supports in vivo organoid growth. The development of these ECM-derived hydrogels opens up the potential for human organoids to be used clinically.

Bioactive Extracellular Matrix Scaffold Promotes Adaptive Cardiac Remodeling and Repair.

Project description:Structural cardiac remodeling after ischemic injury can induce a transition to heart failure from progressive loss of cardiac function. Cellular regenerative therapies are promising but face significant translational hurdles. Tissue extracellular matrix (ECM) holds the necessary environmental cues to stimulate cell-based endogenous myocardial repair pathways and promote adaptive remodeling toward functional recovery. Heart epicardium has emerged as an important anatomic niche for endogenous repair pathways including vasculogenesis and cardiogenesis. We show that acellular ECM scaffolds surgically implanted on the epicardium following myocardial infarction (MI) can attenuate structural cardiac remodeling and improve functional recovery. We assessed the efficacy of this strategy on post-MI functional recovery by comparing intact bioactive scaffolds with biologically inactivated ECM scaffolds. We confirm that bioactive properties within the acellular ECM biomaterial are essential for the observed functional benefits. We show that interaction of human cardiac fibroblasts with bioactive ECM can induce a robust cell-mediated vasculogenic paracrine response capable of functional blood vessel assembly. Fibroblast growth factor-2 is uncovered as a critical regulator of this novel bioinductive effect. Acellular bioactive ECM scaffolds surgically implanted on the epicardium post-MI can reprogram resident fibroblasts and stimulate adaptive pro-reparative pathways enhancing functional recovery. We introduce a novel surgical strategy for tissue repair that can be performed as an adjunct to conventional surgical revascularization with minimal translational challenges.

ECM gels can be used as a tool for direct human organoid derivation, for cell growth with a stable transcriptomic signature, and for in vivo organoid delivery. The development of these ECM-derived hydrogels opens up the potential for human organoids to be used clinically.
