Book Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Morphology  Migration  And Differentiation On Micro And Nano Textured Titanium

Download or read book Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Morphology Migration And Differentiation On Micro And Nano Textured Titanium written by Jennifer M. Schneider and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cell-material interactions are of particular interest in biomedical implants because early events between the cells and the biomaterial can define the success of the device. Upon implantation, bacteria compete with mesenchymal stem cells to attach at the implant surface resulting in either biofilm formation or bone tissue integration. The chosen material and surface topography are an integral part of this initial interaction. Previous work has demonstrated the topography of Ti6Al4V has the ability to regulate the early attachment, migration and differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Specifically, titanium surfaces exhibiting macro- micro roughness resulted in improved cell spreading, random migration, and increased differentiation towards an osteoblastic lineage when compared with smooth topographies (both Ti6Al4V and PEEK). The goal of the current investigation was to further characterize the morphology, migration and differentiation of hMSCs on smooth topographies (both Ti6Al4V and PEEK), macro-micro rough topographies (Endoskeleton) and macro-micro-nano rough topographies (nanoLOCK). The primary hypothesis is that the introduction of nano-topography on micro-rough Ti6Al4V will promote improved cell attachment, migration and differentiation. A secondary hypothesis seeks to identify a correlation between the hMSC morphology at early time-points and long-term differentiation.Together the data presented will validate our two initial hypotheses. Notably, adding a nano-roughness to micro-roughened Ti6Al4V improves the velocity of migrating hMSCs in addition to the increasing the rate at which the hMSCs differentiate to osteoblasts. Furthermore, this improved differentiation appears to be correlated to a rapid adoption of a stellate morphology by the hMSCs on the nanoLOCK surfaces. Thus, these results support the combined macro-micro-nano topography of the nanoLOCK surface as being a substantial improvement over all other spinal fusion cage materials and topographies as demonstrated through rapid random migration necessary to cover a surface, the evolution of a morphology typical of mature osteoblasts/osteocytes, and a rapid progression through the early and mid-osteogenic differentiation markers, ALP and OSX respectively.

Book Modulation of Osteogenic Differentiation in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Submicron Topographically patterned Ridges and Grooves

Download or read book Modulation of Osteogenic Differentiation in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Submicron Topographically patterned Ridges and Grooves written by Shinya Watari and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies have shown that nanoscale and submicron topographic cues modulate a menu of fundamental cell behaviors, and the use of topographic cues is an emerging area of tissue engineering. We used topographically-patterned substrates containing anisotropically-ordered ridges and grooves to mimic one feature of the biophysical environment of type I collagen, which consists of aligned nano- to submicron-scale fibrils. We investigated the effects of topographic cues on mesenchymal stem cell morphology, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. Cells cultured on 1400 or 4000 nm pitches showed greater elongation and alignment relative to 400 nm pitch or planar control. Cells cultured on 400 nm pitch demonstrated significant increases in RUNX2 and BGLAP expression relative to cells cultured on 1400 or 4000 nm pitch or planar control. 400 nm pitch enhanced extracellular calcium deposition. Cells cultured in osteoinductive medium revealed combinatory effects of topography and chemical cues on 400 nm pitch as well as up-regulation of expression of ID1, a target of the BMP pathway. Our data demonstrate that a specific size scale of topographic cue promotes osteogenic differentiation with or without osteogenic agents. These data demonstrate that the integration of topographic cues may be useful for the fabrication of orthopedic implants.

Book Genetic Engineering of Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Download or read book Genetic Engineering of Mesenchymal Stem Cells written by Jan A. Nolta and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-08-29 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MSC (mesenchymal stem cells) have been reported to initiate revascularization after injury, to facilitate engraftment of blood-forming stem cells, and to reduce the incidence of graft-vs. host disease through their immune-suppressive qualities. Finally, bone marrow-derived MSC have been reported to home to areas of solid tumor revascularization, and thus may be used as delivery vehicles to target ablative agents into dividing tumor cells. Recently the characteristics of human MSC from adipose (fat) tissue have also been identified. The possibility of repairing tissues, speeding stem cell engraftment, and targeting solid tumors for specific killing, using MSC easily harvested from bone marrow, or better yet, from unwanted fat tissue, holds broad appeal, and is an intriguing possibility that could have dramatic effect on health care. This book has information on how to isolate, grow, and characterize MSC from marrow and fat, and gives important insight into how these cells may be used for gene delivery and cellular therapies in the future. Updates on emerging clinical trials are given.

Book excerpt: Repairing tissue defects caused by diseases and traumas presents significant challenges in the clinic. Recent advancements in biomaterials have offered promising strategies for promoting tissue regeneration. In particular, the exploration of 3D macro and microstructures of biomaterials has proven crucial in this process. The integration of macro, micro, and nanostructures facilitates the performance of biomaterials in terms of their mechanical properties, degradation rate, and distinctive impacts on cellular activities. In this review, we summarize the recent progress in biomaterials with hierarchical structures for tissue regeneration. We explore the various methods and strategies employed in designing biomaterials with hierarchical structures of different dimensions. The improvement of physicochemical properties and bioactivities by hierarchically structured biomaterials, including the regulation of mechanical properties, degradability, and the specific functions of cell behaviors, has been highlighted. Furthermore, the current applications of hierarchically structured biomaterials for tissue regeneration are discussed. Finally, we conclude by summarizing the developments of hierarchically structured biomaterials for tissue regeneration and provide future perspectives.

Book In Vitro Response To Implants With Internally Roughened Micron And Nano Features

Download or read book In Vitro Response To Implants With Internally Roughened Micron And Nano Features written by Jennifer M. Schneider and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spinal fusion surgery combines two or more vertebrae together to reduce discomfort by immobilizing a painful vertebral motion segment and restoring spinal stability. The insertion of the interbody fusion device serves to support the space previously occupied by an intervertebral disc and, based on the material and topography, can also facilitate new bone formation. Recent research has focused on enhancing the endplate-contacting surfaces of interbody fusion devices and has demonstrated that micro-nano topography combined with the macro-roughness of the anti-expulsion surface can enhance stem cell morphology and differentiation. However, an often overlooked feature of fusion devices is the topography of the internal walls of interbody spinal implants which may play an important role during bone graph integration and fusion. This evaluation examines whether uniform application of surface topography at a cellular level invokes a similar cyto/chemokines expression and phenotype when exposed to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), regardless of location on the device.The results presented in this study demonstrate equivalent hMSC gene expression and morphology on the interior and exterior surfaces of devices with uniform topography at a cellular level. Specifically, the nanoLOCKu00ae surface induced an osteoblastic phenotype in hMSCs on both surfaces, whereas the smooth titanium and PEEK demonstrated a fibroblastic morphology across both interior and exterior surfaces. The cell morphology on the nanoLOCKu00ae surface correlated with the production of osteogenic cyto and chemokines, while PEEK promoted upregulation of inflammatory cyto and chemokines.
