Project description:B cells are an adaptive immune target of biomaterials development in vaccine research but despite their role in wound healing have not been studied tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. We evaluated the B cell response to biomaterial scaffold materials implanted in a muscle wound; a biological extracellular matrix (ECM) and synthetic polyester polycaprolactone. In the local muscle tissue, small numbers of B cells are recruited in response to tissue injury and biomaterial implantation. ECM materials induced plasmablasts in lymph nodes and antigen presentation in the spleen while the synthetic PCL implants delayed B cell migration and induced an antigen presenting phenotype. In muMt- mice lacking B cells, the fibrotic response to the synthetic biomaterials decreased. Immunofluorescence confirmed antigen presenting B cells in fibrotic tissue surrounding silicone breast implants. In sum, the adaptive B cell immune response to biomaterial depends on composition and induces local, regional and systemic immunological changes.

Project description:Human neural organoid models have become an important tool for studying neurobiology. In this work, we compared Matrigel to an N-cadherin peptide-functionalized gelatin methacryloyl hydrogel (termed GelMA-Cad) for culturing cortical neural organoids. Specifically, we compare five materials: (1) Matrigel, (2) GelMA-Cad with high crosslinker (HC), (3) GelMA-Cad with low crosslinker (LC), (4) GelMA HC and (5) GelMA LC. We profiled these organoids at the earliest stages to understand potential differences in radial glia formation.

Project description:Silicone-based medical devices are widely used in chronic implants and are generally perceived to be safe. However, immune-related complications including malignancies have recently been linked to textured breast implants. Here, we examine the influence of clinically approved breast implants surface features on host immune responses. Prosthetics with surface roughness of 0, 4, and 90 (Ra) were implanted in mammary fat pads of mice for 2 weeks and cells adjacent to the resulting tissue capsules were evaluated for foreign body immune responses using single-cell RNA-seq. Our findings identify a unique and finely tuned surface topography that is capable of modulating implant immunity to suppress foreign body response.

Project description:To determine the performance of the decellularized GI tissue ECM hydrogel, we analyzed differences in mRNA expression levels in native gastric tissues, gastric organoids cultured in Matrigel and those cultured in decellularized gastric ECM hydrogel. We also compared mRNA expression levels of native small intestinal tissues, small intestinal organoids grown in Matrigel and those grown in decellularized intestinal ECM hydrogel.

Project description:Titanium is widely used in bone prostheses due to its excellent biocompatibility and osseointegration capacity. To understand the effect of sandblasted acid-etched (SAE) Ti implants on the biological responses of human osteoblast (HOb), their proteomic profiles were analysed using nLC-MS/MS. The cells were cultured with the implant materials, and 2544 distinct proteins were detected in samples taken after 1, 3 and 7 days. Comparative analyses of proteomic data were performed using Perseus software. The expression of proteins related to EIF2, mTOR, insulin-secretion and IGF pathways showed marked differences in cells grown with SAE-Ti in comparison with cells cultured without Ti. Moreover, the proteomic profiles obtained with SAE-Ti were compared over time. The affected proteins were related to adhesion, immunity, oxidative stress, coagulation, angiogenesis, osteogenesis and extracellular matrix formation functions. The proliferation, mineralisation and osteogenic gene expression in HObs cultured with SAE-Ti were characterised in vitro. The results showed that the osteoblasts exposed to this material increase their mineralisation rate and expression of COLI, RUNX2, SP7, CTNNB1, CAD13, IGF2, MAPK2 and mTOR. Overall, the observed proteomic profiles can explain the SAE-Ti osteogenic properties, widening our knowledge of key signalling pathways taking part in the early stages of the osseointegration process in this type of implantations.

Project description:Bone development and regeneration is associated with the Wnt signaling pathway that, according to literature, can be modulated by lithium ions (Li+). The aim of this study was to evaluate the gene expression profile during peri-implant healing of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) implants with incorporated Li+, while PLGA without Li+ was used as control, and a special attention was then paid to the Wnt signaling pathway. The implants were inserted in rat tibia for 7 or 28 days and the gene expression profile was investigated using a genome-wide microarray analysis. The results were verified by qPCR and immunohistochemistry. Histomorphometry was used to evaluate the possible effect of Li+ on bone regeneration. The microarray analysis revealed a large number of significantly differentially regulated genes over time within the two implant groups. The Wnt signaling pathway was significantly affected by Li+, with approximately 34% of all Wnt-related markers regulated over time, compared to 22% for non-Li+ containing (control; Ctrl) implants. Functional cluster analysis indicated skeletal system morphogenesis, cartilage development and condensation as related to Li+. The downstream Wnt target gene, FOSL1, and the extracellular protein-encoding gene, ASPN, were significantly upregulated by Li+ compared with Ctrl. The presence of β-catenin, FOSL1 and ASPN positive cells was confirmed around implants of both groups. Interestingly, a significantly reduced bone area was observed over time around both implant groups. The presence of periostin and calcitonin receptor-positive cells was observed at both time points. This study is to the best of the authors’ knowledge the first report evaluating the effect of a local release of Li+ from PLGA at the fracture site. The present study shows that during the current time frame and with the present dose of Li+ in PLGA implants, Li+ is not an enhancer of early bone growth, although it affects the Wnt signaling pathway. PLGA implants with +/- incorporated Li were inserted in rat tibia for 7 or 28 days, peri-implant bone was harvested and RNA extracted using Qiazol lysis reagent and TissueLyser followed by Qiagen's Rneasy Micro Kit. The microarray experiment was conducted at SCIBLU Genomics (www.lu.se/sciblu) according to Affymetrix guidelines (n=6).

Project description:Tumor initiation and progression are critically dependent on interaction of cancer cells with their cellular and extracellular microenvironment. Alterations in the composition, integrity, and mechanical properties of the extracellular matrix (ECM) dictate tumor processes including proliferation, migration, and invasion. Also in primary liver cancers, consisting of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), the dysregulation of the extracellular environment by liver fibrosis and tumor desmoplasia is pertinent. Yet, in-depth characterization of liver cancer ECM and underlying tumor-promoting mechanisms remain largely unknown. Herein, we used an integrative molecular and mechanical approach to extensively characterize the ECM of HCC and CCA tumors by utilizing decellularization techniques. We identified a myriad of ECM-related proteins in both tumor and adjacent liver tissue, highlighting the complexity of the primary liver cancer matrisome. The differences in ECM protein abundance result in divergent mechanical properties on a macro- and micro-scale that is tumor-type specific. Furthermore, we employed the decellularized tumor ECM to create a tumor-specific hydrogel that support patient-derived tumor organoids. This provides a new avenue for personalized medicine by combining patient-derived tumor ECM and cancer cells. Taken together, this study provides better understanding of alterations to key aspects of the ECM that occur during primary liver cancer development.

Project description:The present work was designed to assess the effects of high plasma cortisol levels induced by slow-release cortisol implants in the mRNA transcription of the GR in the different organs of the Sparus aurata, including liver. For that purpose fish were intraperitoneally injected with the implants containing two different concentrations of cortisol (50 or 200 µg/g body weight) and blood and organs were sampled after 7 and 14 days of implantation. Only fish with 200 µg/g implants exhibited a significant rise in the plasma cortisol.

We determined that both mechanical properties and peptide presentation can tune cell fate and diversity in gelatin-based matrices during differentiation. Of particular note, cortical organoids cultured in GelMA-Cad produce higher numbers of neurogenic and ciliated radial glia and upper-layer excitatory neurons—an important population for modeling neurodegenerative disease—compared to GelMA and Matrigel controls.
