    Abstract Tendinopathy, characterized by inflammatory and degenerative changes, presents challenges in sports and medicine. In addressing the limitations of conservative management, this study focuses on developing tendon grafts using extrusion bioprinting with platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-infused hydrogels loaded with tendon cells. The objective is to understand paracrine interactions initiated by bioprinted tendon grafts in either inflamed or non-inflamed host tissues. PRP was utilized to functionalize methacrylate gelatin (GelMA), incorporating tendon cells for graft bioprinting. Bioinformatic analyses of overexpressed proteins, predictive of functional enrichment, revealed insights into PRP graft behavior in both non-inflamed and inflamed environments. PRP grafts activated inflammatory pathways, including Interleukin 17 (IL-17), neuroinflammation, Interleukin 33 (IL-33), and chemokine signaling. Interleukin 1 beta (IL-1b) in the graft environment triggered p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling, nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) canonical pathway, and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) signaling. Biological enrichment attributed to PRP grafts included cell chemotaxis, collagen turnover, cell migration, and angiogenesis. Acellular PRP grafts differed from nude grafts in promoting vessel length, vessel area, and junction density. Angiogenesis in cellular grafts was enhanced with newly synthesized Interleukin 8 (IL-8) in cooperation with IL-1b. In conclusion, paracrine signaling from PRP grafts, mediated by chemokine activities, influences cell migration, inflammation, and angiogenic status in host tissues. Under inflammatory conditions, newly synthesized IL-8 regulates vascularization in collaboration with PRP.

    Abstract Dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) from adult teeth show the expression of a very complete repertoire of stem pluripotency core factors and a high plasticity for cell reprogramming. Canonical Wnt and Notch signaling pathways regulate stemness and the expression of pluripotency core factors in DPSCs, and even very short-term (48 h) activations of the Wnt pathway induce a profound remodeling of DPSCs at the physiologic and metabolic levels. In this work, DPSC cultures were exposed to treatments modulating Notch and Wnt signaling, and also induced to differentiate to osteo/adipocytes. DNA methylation, histone acetylation, histone methylation, and core factor expression levels where assessed by mass spectroscopy, Western blot, and qPCR. A short-term activation of Wnt signaling by WNT-3A induced a genomic DNA demethylation, and increased histone acetylation and histone methylation in DPSCs. The efficiency of cell reprogramming methods relies on the ability to surpass the epigenetic barrier, which determines cell lineage specificity. This study brings important information about the regulation of the epigenetic barrier by Wnt signaling in DPSCs, which could contribute to the development of safer and less aggressive reprogramming methodologies with a view to cell therapy.

    Abstract Extrusion bioprinting based on the development of novel bioinks offers the possibility of manufacturing clinically useful tools for wound management. In this study, we show the rheological properties and printability outcomes of two advanced dressings based on platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP) blended with alginate and loaded with dermal fibroblasts. Measurements taken at 1 h, 4 days, and 18 days showed that both the PRP- and PPP-based dressings retain plasma and platelet proteins, which led to the upregulation of angiogenic and immunomodulatory proteins by embedded fibroblasts (e.g., an up to 69-fold increase in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), an up to 188-fold increase in monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1), and an up to 456-fold increase in hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) 18 days after printing). Conditioned media harvested from both PRP and PPP constructs stimulated the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), whereas only those from PRP dressings stimulated HUVEC migration, which correlated with the VEGF/MCP-1 and VEGF/HGF ratios. Similarly, the advanced dressings increased the level of interleukin-8 and led to a four-fold change in the level of extracellular matrix protein 1. These findings suggest that careful selection of plasma formulations to fabricate wound dressings can enable regulation of the molecular composition of the microenvironment, as well as paracrine interactions, thereby improving the clinical potential of dressings and providing the possibility to tailor each composition to specific wound types and healing stages.

    Abstract The transplantation of expansions of limbal epithelial stem cells (LESC) remains one of the most efficient therapies for the treatment of limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD) to date. However, the available donor corneas are scarce, and the corneas conserved for long time, under hypothermic conditions (after 7 days) or in culture (more than 28 days), are usually discarded due to poor viability of the endothelial cells. To establish an objective criterion for the utilisation or discarding of corneas as a source of LESC, we characterized, by immunohistochemistry analysis, donor corneas conserved in different conditions and for different periods of time. We also studied the potency of LESCs isolated from these corneas and maintained in culture up to 3 cell passages. We hoped that the study of markers of LESCs present in both the corneoscleral histological sections and the cell cultures would show the adequacy of the methods used for cell isolation and how fit the LESC enrichment of the obtained cell populations to be expanded was. Thus, the expressions of markers of the cells residing in the human limbal and corneal epithelium (cytokeratin CK15 and CK12, vimentin, Collagen VII, p63α, ABCG2, Ki67, Integrin β4, ZO1, and melan A) were analysed in sections of corneoscleral tissues conserved in hypothermic conditions for 2-9 days with post-mortem time (pmt) < 8 h or for 1 day with pmt > 16 h, and in sclerocorneal rims maintained in an organ culture medium for 29 days. Cell populations isolated from donor corneoscleral tissues were also assessed based on these markers to verify the adequacy of isolation methods and the potential of expanding LESCs from these tissues. Positivity for several putative stem cell markers such as CK15 and p63α was detected in all corneoscleral tissues, although a decrease was recorded in the ones conserved for longer times. The barrier function and the ability to adhere to the extracellular matrix were maintained in all the analysed tissues. In limbal epithelial cell cultures, a simultaneous decrease in the melan A melanocyte marker and the putative stem cell markers was detected, suggesting a close relationship between the melanocytes and the limbal stem cells of the niche. Holoclones stained with putative stem cell markers were obtained from long-term, hypothermic, stored sclerocorneal rims. The results showed that the remaining sclerocorneal rims after corneal transplantation, which were conserved under hypothermic conditions for up to 7 days and would have been discarded at a first glance, still maintained their potential as a source of LESC cultures.

    Abstract Nucleoporins are the main components of the nuclear-pore complex (NPC) and were initially considered as mere structural elements embedded in the nuclear envelope, being responsible for nucleocytoplasmic transport. Nevertheless, several recent scientific reports have revealed that some nucleoporins participate in nuclear processes such as transcription, replication, DNA repair and chromosome segregation. Thus, the interaction of NPCs with chromatin could modulate the distribution of chromosome territories relying on the epigenetic state of DNA. In particular, the nuclear basket proteins Tpr and Nup153, and the FG-nucleoporin Nup98 seem to play key roles in all these novel functions. In this work, histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi) were used to induce a hyperacetylated state of chromatin and the behavior of the mentioned nucleoporins was studied. Our results show that, after HDACi treatment, Tpr, Nup153 and Nup98 are translocated from the nuclear pore toward the interior of the cell nucleus, accumulating as intranuclear nucleoporin clusters. These transitory structures are highly dynamic, and are mainly present in the population of cells arrested at the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle. Our results indicate that the redistribution of these nucleoporins from the nuclear envelope to the nuclear interior may be implicated in the early events of cell cycle initialization, particularly during the G1 phase transition.
