Article Abstract
Hydrogel surface properties can be modified to form bioactive interfaces to modulate the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. In this work, a hydrogel made of gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) and alginate was designed and tested as a scaffold to control stem-cell osteogenic differentiation. The hydrogel's surface was treated with polydopamine (pDA) to create an adhesive layer for the adsorption of the osteoinductive drug dexamethasone (Dex). The presence of the pDA coating enhanced Dex adsorption and retention over 21 days. This effect resulted in a delay in the osteogenic differentiation of hASCs cultured on the hydrogel treated with a pDA layer.

Immune cells, such as macrophages, stimulated by several types of inorganic ions released from bioactive glasses secrete cytokines that promote and inhibit bone formation. In this study, the effects of borate-ion-stimulated mouse macrophages (RAW264) on the osteogenic differentiation of mouse bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (KUSA-A1) are investigated. KUSA-A1 is cultured with a borate-ion-containing medium and RAW264-conditioned medium, which contained the secretome released from boron-stimulated RAW264, and its osteogenic differentiation is evaluated.

Background: Guided bone regeneration (GBR) relies on biocompatible membranes to support osteogenesis. 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE)-crosslinked hyaluronic acid (xHyA) has shown promise in enhancing bone regeneration, yet its mechanisms remain unclear.
Objective: This study evaluates the osteogenic effects of xHyA-functionalized native pericardium collagen membrane (NPCM) and ribose-crosslinked collagen membrane (RCCM) using an airlift culture model with SaOS-2 cells.

Although platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has demonstrated considerable regenerative potential in regenerative endodontic treatment, its clinical efficacy may be limited by the rapid degradation of its bioactive components, leading to inconsistent outcomes. To overcome this challenge, the present study explores the use of nano-sized exosomes derived from PRP-a novel designated as PRP exosomes (PRP-Exo)-as a more stable and targeted biomolecular delivery system to promote odontogenic differentiation within the dentin-pulp complex. The primary objective is to investigate the expression of key odontogenic markers, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and Dentin Sialophosphoprotein (DSPP), in human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) following PRP-Exo treatment.

Enoxaparin sodium (ES), a low molecular weight heparin derivative, has recently been recognized for its diverse biological activities. In particular, the ability of heparin to modulate inflammation has been utilized to enhance the biocompatibility of bone implant materials. In this study, we utilized poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), a drug loading bone implant material, as a matrix and combined this with enoxaparin sodium (ES) to create enoxaparin sodium PMMA cement (ES-PMMA) to investigate the regulatory effects of ES on inflammatory responses in bone tissue from an animal model.
