ABSTRACT

Objective:To prepare the whole bladder acellular matrix (BAM) using the self-designed perfusion decellularization system, and evaluate the feasibility of constructing the tissue engineering bladder with the adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs).Methods:This study was conducted from October 2020 to April 2021. The self-designed perfusion decellularization system was used, and four different decellularization protocols (group A, group B, group C and group D) were formulated, according to the flow direction of the perfusate and the action time of different decellularization solutions. Among them, the urethral orifice of the bladder tissue was used as the outflow tract of the perfusion fluid in groups A and B. The top of the bladder was cut off and used as the outflow tract of the perfusion fluid in groups C and D. In groups A and C, 1% Triton X-100 was treated for 6 h, and 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was treated for 2 h. In groups B and D, 1% Triton X-100 was treated for 7 h, and 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was treated for 1 h. In addition, the tissue in the normal bladder group was directly obtained from the natural bladder tissue, which did not require perfusion, cryopreservation and thawing. The fast and efficient decellularization protocol was screened out through HE, DAPI, Masson trichrome and Alcian Blue staining and quantitative analyses to prepare the whole bladder scaffold. The prepared BAM was used as the scaffold material, and the ADSCs were used as the seeding cells to construct the tissue engineering bladder. HE and DAPI staining were used to observe the distribution of ADSCs on the BAM.Results:HE and DAPI staining showed that there was no obvious nuclear residue in the group C. Masson trichrome and Alcian Blue staining showed that the collagen structure and glycosaminoglycan were well preserved in the group C. There was no significant difference in bladder wall thickness between the group C and the normal bladder group [(975.44±158.62)μm vs.(1 064.49±168.52)μm, P > 0.05]. The DNA content in the group C [(43.59 ±4.59) ng/mg] was lower than that in the normal bladder group, group A, group B and group D [(532.50±26.69), (135.17±6.99), (182.49±13.69) and(84.00±4.38)ng/mg], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The collagen content [(10.98 ± 0.29)μg/mg] and glycosaminoglycan content [(2.30±0.18)μg/mg] in group C were not significantly different with those in the normal bladder group [(11.69±0.49) and (2.36±0.09)μg/mg, P>0.05]. Scanning electron microscopy showed that a large number of pore structures could be observed on the surface of the prepared BAM in groups A-D and were facilitated to cell adhesion. The isolated and cultured ADSCs were identified by flow cytometry to confirm the positive expression of CD90 and CD29, and the negative expression of CD45 and CD106. Live/dead staining and CCK-8 detection confirmed that the prepared BAM in the group C had no cytotoxicity. HE and DAPI staining showed that a large number of ADSCs were distributed on the surface and inside of the tissue engineering bladder. Conclusions:The whole bladder shape BAM prepared by the self-designed perfusion decellularization system could be used as the scaffold material for bladder tissue engineering, and the constructed tissue engineering bladder could be used for bladder repair and reconstruction.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Bioscaffolds composed of acellular matrix are widely used In animal and clinical research to repair and reconstruct tissues and organs, but all decellularlzatlon methods will destroy matrix structure and function to some extent. OBJECTIVE: To review the preparation methods, advantages and disadvantages of acellular matrix and its application in the study of parotid gland and other tissue engineering. METHODS: A computer-based search of CNKI, CBM, PubMed and Elsevier databases was performed to retrieve related articles published from 2008 to 2019. The search term were “decellular matrix, preparation method, parotid gland, tissue engineering, regeneration, decellularizatlon, preparation method, parotid gland tissue engineering” In Chinese and English, respectively. Seventy-four eligible articles were Included. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Acellular matrix preparation methods of most tissues and organs require chemical, biological (enzyme), physical methods and the their combination, which depend on the thickness, compositions and nature. Although not all decellularization methods can remove cellular components from tissues and organs, tissues and organs that completely remove cells have the advantage of remodeling tissue specificity, providing a favorable microenvironment for the proliferation and differentiation of inoculated cells. Due to the complex structure of the parotid gland and the challenges of tissue engineering In clinical applications, clinical transplantation In patients Is limited. In vivo studies In this field are limited to animals, and applications based on submandibular gland acellular matrix bioscaffold materials are expected to be a favorable source of organizational parotid glands.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: In recent years, there have been many studies on the use of supercritical fluids for biological material treatment in countries outside China. However, little is reported on application of supercritical fluids to bone tissue extraction, in particular in China. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of supercritical carbon dioxide extraction technology in the treatment of porcine femur cancellous bone and its effect on bone biological properties. METHODS: Porcine femoral bone blocks that were subjected to supercritical carbon dioxide extraction (study group) or not (control group) were prepared to determine bone mineral density, microstructure, maximum compressive strength, elastic modulus, bone tissue composition, collagen content and perform histological analysis. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were inoculated into two groups of bone blocks, and cultured for 1 day. The microporous structure of trabecular bone and cell adhesion and growth in bone material-cell composite were observed by scanning electron microscopy. The two groups of bone blocks were implanted subcutaneously in SD rats. The inflammatory reaction of subcutaneous tissue was observed histologically at 1, 2 and 4 weeks after surgery. The experimental protocol had been approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Chinese PLA General Hospital, China. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: There were no significant differences in pore size, bone mineral density, maximum compressive strength, elastic modulus and collagen content between the study and control groups (P>0.05). Scanning electron microscopy showed that in the control group, the material pores had poor connectivity and there was soft tissue residue; in the study group, material pores were connected to each other and the structure was intact. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the two groups of bone tissue materials had similar absorption and diffraction peaks. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that supercritical carbon dioxide extraction could reduce water content in bone tissue. Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that there were no soft tissue residues in the bone, and the cell residues in the bone pit were significantly reduced in the study group, while soft tissue and cell residues were observed in the control group. Sirius red staining and modified Masson staining showed that the structure of bone collagen in the study group was intact, the cytoplasmic components reduced, and the cytoplasmic components in the control group remained significantly. Scanning electron microscopy showed that there was no obvious cell adhesion in the control group, but cell adhesion growth was obvious in the study group. Perivascular inflammatory response in the bone tissue implantation region was obviously weaker in the study group than in the study group. These results suggest that supercritical carbon dioxide extraction technology is an effective and environment-friendly bone tissue processing technology. It can effectively remove porcine cancellous bone cells and soft tissue without affecting its collagen structure and content and mechanical properties, retaining intact bone pore structure, increasing cell adhesion and growth, and effectively reducing inflammatory rejection.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: With the development of tissue engineering, the repair and regeneration of disc becomes possible. Decellularized extracellular matrix is an important means for disc regeneration. OBJECTIVE: To review and summarize the processing, quality control and application of decellularized matrix materials applied in intervertebral disc regeneration in recent years and put forward the prospect. METHODS: PubMed, Web of Science and CNKI databases were searched for the articles concerning decellularized methods and decellularized matrix repairing intervertebral disc with the search terms of “intervertebral disc, decellularization, extracellular matrix, scaffold material, tissue engineering” in English and Chinese, respectively. After screening based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the articles with high relevance were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The decellularized tissue-engineered intervertebral disc aims to maintain the physiologically relevant bioactivators to a great extent, improve mechanical properties and biocompatibility, and reduce immunogenicity. The decellularized matrix material can simulate the microenvironment of the extracellular matrix in the intervertebral disc. As a cell carrier, it can well induce the differentiation of seed cells, which has achieved certain progress in the repair of intervertebral discs. However, further studies need to address the following issues: proper porosity of decellularized matrix materials, immunological rejection, implant ways in vivo and repair effect.

ABSTRACT

Tissue engineering is rapidly growing now and can become a promising alternative to transplantation of organs and tissues,as it is devoid of major shortcomings of transplantology, such as acute shortage, complexity of selection, delivery andstorage of donor material, lifelong immunosuppressive therapy. One of the most widely known methods of obtainingbiological scaffolds for the subsequent creation of tissue-engineered constructs of organs and tissues is decellularization.The evaluation of the quality of the obtained scaffolds, based on the study of the viability of cell structures in decellularizedand recellularized matrices, is one of the priorities of modern regenerative medicine worldwide. In this investigation, thebiophysical criteria of decellularization and recellularization of tissue-engineered constructs based on the evaluation of thegeneration of free radicals in native, decellularized and recellularized tissues by EPR spectroscopy and chemoluminescencein a complex assessment of the quality of biological matrixes obtained are considered using intrathoracic organs and tissuesof rats. It has been established that the intensity indices of free radical generation in native and recellularized tissues ofanimal organs, as well as in decellularized matrices, can serve as one of the express criteria for quantitative assessment ofcell structures viability

ABSTRACT

SUMMARY: Arterial obstruction in small diameter (<6 mm) vessels are many times treated with grafts, however autologous aren't always available and synthetic have a high rate of complications. Decellularization of umbilical arteries may provide a solution, but the ideal method is debatable. We compare effectiveness between SDS and Triton X-100. Umbilical cords obtained from full term pregnancies with normal development and no evident complications in the newborn, were micro-dissected within 12 h and stored in phosphate buffered saline without freezing. Arteries were then processed for decellularization using 0.1 % and 1 % SDS, and 1 % Triton X100 protocols. Evaluation of cellular and nuclear material, collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and glycosoaminoglycans of the extracellular matrix (ECM) were evaluated as well as morphometric analysis under histological and immunohistochemical techniques. Triton X-100 was ineffective, preserving nuclear remains identified by immunofluorescence, had the most notable damage to elastic fibers, and decrease in collagen. SDS effectively eliminated the nuclei and had a less decrease in elastic fibers and collagen. Laminin was preserved in all groups. No significant differences were identified in luminal diameters; however the middle layer decreased due to decellularization of muscle cells. In conclusion, 0.1 % SDS decellularization was the most effective in eliminating cells and preserving the main components of the ECM.


RESUMEN: La obstrucción arterial en vasos de pequeño diámetro (<6 mm) se trata muchas veces con injertos, sin embargo, los autólogos no siempre están disponibles y los sintéticos tienen una alta tasa de complicaciones. La descelularización de las arterias umbilicales puede proporcionar una solución, pero el método ideal es discutible. Comparamos la efectividad entre los métodos SDS y Triton X-100. Cordones umbilicales obtenidos a partir de embarazos a término con evolución normal y sin complicaciones evidentes del recién nacido, se microdiseccionaron en 12 horas y se almacenaron en solución salina con fosfato sin congelación. Las arterias se procesaron luego para la descelularización usando los protocolos de SDS al 0,1 % y 1 %, y Triton X-100 al 1 %. Se realizó la evaluación de material celular y nuclear, fibras de colágeno, fibras elásticas y glucosoaminoglicanos de la matriz extracelular (MEC), así como el análisis morfométrico bajo técnicas histológicas e inmunohistoquímicas. Triton X-100 fue ineficaz, conservando los restos nucleares identificados por inmunofluorescencia, tuvo el daño más notable a las fibras elásticas y la disminución del colágeno. SDS efectivamente eliminó los núcleos y tuvo una disminución menor en las fibras elásticas y el colágeno. Laminina fue preservado en todos los grupos. No se identificaron diferencias significativas en los diámetros luminales; sin embargo, la capa media disminuyó debido a la descelularización de las células musculares. la descelularización con SDS al 0,1 % fue la más efectiva para eliminar células y preservar los principales componentes de la MEC.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Different decellularization methods can affect the integrity and the biomechanical and biocompatible properties of the tracheal matrix. Natural cross-linking with genipin can be applied to improve those properties. The goals of this study were to evaluate the effects of different decellularization methods on the properties of genipin-cross-linked decellularized tracheal matrices in rabbits. METHODS: The tracheas of New Zealand rabbits were decellularized by the Triton-X 100-processed method (TPM) and the detergent-enzymatic method (DEM) and were then cross-linked with genipin. Mechanical tests, haematoxylin-eosin staining, Masson trichrome staining, Safranin O staining, DAPI staining, scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), and biocompatibility tests were used to evaluate the treatment. The bioengineered trachea and control trachea were then implanted into allogeneic rabbits for 30 days. The structural and functional analyses were performed after transplantation. RESULTS: The biomechanical tests demonstrated that the biomechanical properties of the decellularized tracheas decreased and that genipin improved them (p < 0.05). The histological staining results revealed that most of the mucosal epithelial cells were removed and that the decellularized trachea had lower immunogenicity than the control group. The analysis of SEM revealed that the decellularized trachea retained the micro- and ultra-structural architectures of the trachea and that the matrices cross-linked with genipin were denser. The biocompatibility evaluation and in vivo implantation experiments showed that the decellularized trachea treated with the DEM had better biocompatibility than that treated with the TPM and that immunogenicity in the cross-linked tissues was lower than that in the uncross-linked tissues (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Compared with the trachea treated with the TPM, the rabbit trachea processed by the DEM had better biocompatibility and lower immunogenicity, and its structural and mechanical characteristics were effectively improved after the genipin treatment, which is suitable for engineering replacement tracheal tissue.

ABSTRACT

Biological biomaterials for tissue engineering purposes can be produced through tissue and/or organ decellularization. The remaining extracellular matrix (ECM) must be acellular and preserve its proteins and physical features. Placentas are organs of great interest because they are discarded after birth and present large amounts of ECM. Protocols for decellularization are tissue-specific and have not been established for canine placentas yet. This study aimed at analyzing a favorable method for decellularization of maternal and fetal portions of canine placentas. Canine placentas were subjected to ten preliminary tests to analyze the efficacy of parameters such as the type of detergents, freezing temperatures and perfusion. Two protocols were chosen for further analyses using histology, scanning electron microscopy, immunofluorescence and DNA quantification. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was the most effective detergent for cell removal. Freezing placentas before decellularization required longer periods of incubation in different detergents. Both perfusion and immersion methods were capable of removing cells. Placentas decellularized using Protocol I (1% SDS, 5 mM EDTA, 50 mM TRIS, and 0.5% antibiotic) preserved the ECM structure better, but Protocol I was less efficient to remove cells and DNA content from the ECM than Protocol II (1% SDS, 5 mM EDTA, 0.05% trypsin, and 0.5% antibiotic).

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effect of cells in the epimysium conduit (EMC) on the regeneration of sciatic nerve of mice. Methods: The epimysium of the 8-week-old male C57BL/6J enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) mouse was trimmed to a size of 5 mm×3 mm, and prepared in a tubular shape (ie, EMC). Some epimysia were treated with different irradiation doses (0, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 Gy) to inhibit cells migration. Then the number of migrating cells were counted, and the epimysia with the least migrating cells were selected to prepare EMC. Some epimysia were subjected to decellularization treatment and prepared EMC. HE and Masson staining were used to identify the decellularization effect. Twenty-four C57BL/6J wild-type mice were used to prepare a 3-mm-long sciatic nerve defect of right hind limb model and randomly divided into 3 groups ( n=8). EMC (group A), EMC after cell migration inhibition treatment (group B), and decellularized EMC (group C) were used to repair defects. At 16 weeks after operation, the midline of the regenerating nerve was taken for gross, toluidine blue staining, immunofluorescence staining, and transmission electron microscopy. Results: At 15 days, the number of migrating cells gradually decreased with the increase of irradiation dose. There was no significant difference between 30 Gy group and 35 Gy group ( P>0.05); there were significant differences between the other groups ( P0.05). Conclusion: The cellular components of the epimysium participate in and promote the regeneration of the sciatic nerve in mice.

ABSTRACT

Tissue engineering and the tissue engineering model have shown promise in improving methods of drug delivery, drug action, and drug discovery in pharmaceutical research for the attenuation of the central nervous system inflammatory response. Such inflammation contributes to the lack of regenerative ability of neural cells, as well as the temporary and permanent loss of function associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and traumatic brain injury. This review is focused specifically on the recent advances in the tissue engineering model made by altering scaffold biophysical and biochemical properties for use in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. A portion of this article will also be spent on the review of recent progress made in extracellular matrix decellularization as a new and innovative scaffold for disease treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective · To develop a new hybrid tissue-engineered vascular graft (HTEV) with excellent mechanical properties and biological functions. Methods · Decellularized rat aortas (DRAs) were prepared. Then, electrospinning nano poly (1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane-co-polyolsebacate) (ES-APS) was used to sheathe DRAs in order to improve the mechanical properties. After that, the intima of HTEV scaffold was modified with heparin coating. HTEVs were implanted in rat models in vivo to evaluate their biological functions. Six weeks later, vascular ultrasound and micro-CT angiography were carried out. Results · The donor aortic vessels were successfully decellularized. The total DNA content of DRA group [(115.4±10.9) ng/mg] significantly decreased compared with natural aorta group [(398.6±14.6) ng/mg] (P=0.000). But collagenous fibers and elastic fibers of decellularized vessels were severely injured. Mechanical tests of scaffolds showed that ES-APS significantly enhanced the mechanical properties. The wall thickness [(187±11) μm], suture retention strength [(0.51±0.06) N] and burst pressure [(2103±232) mmHg] of HTEV group all significantly increased compared with DRA group (P<0.01). Heparin coating modification of HTEV significantly reduced the number of adhesive platelets. Vascular ultrasound and micro-CT angiography showed all grafts were totally patent 6 weeks after implantation in rat models. ES-APS sheath successfully prevented the occurrence of vasodilation and aneurysm formation. Conclusion · DRA sheathed with ES-APS on adventitia and coated with heparin on intima is a new kind of HTEV, which possesses increased tensile strength and improved biocompatibility.

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the two different decellularization methods for preparation of liver whole-organ decellularized matrix for providing an experimental basis for screening more effective method. Methods Liver whole-organ decellularized matrix was prepared by two different decellularization methods using sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and Triton X-100+SDS (Tx+SDS) as main detergent respectively. The three-dimensional shape, vascular structure, histological results and immunofluorescence images were observed, and the contents of residual DNA, collagen and growth factors (HGF, bFGF) were determined by ELISA. Results Liver whole-organ decellularized matrix was successfully prepared by both methods, as the cellular and nuclear components were removed successfully and the extracellular matrix (ECM) protein was preserved. The Tx+SDS method preserved the vascular structure of the liver, and the SDS method resulted in damage to the vascular structure. Compared with SDS method, the Tx+SDS method preserved more ECM protein, including almost 100% of collagen, and 58.5% of HGF and 42.5% of bFGF. Conclusion The liver whole-organ decellularized matrix could be well prepared by Tx+SDS method, and it may provide an effective scaffold for the study of tissue engineered liver and regenerative medicine.
