Biomaterials have existed for millennia as mechanical replacement structures following disease or injury. Biomaterial design has changed markedly from structural support with an “inert immune profile as the primary objective to designs that elicit an integrative local tissue response and a pro-repair immune cell phenotype. Immunomodulatory Biomaterials: Regulating the Immune Response with Biomaterials to Affect Clinical Outcome offers a single, comprehensive reference on biomaterials for modulation of the host response, for materials scientists, tissue engineers and those working in regenerative medicine. This book details methods, materials and strategies designed to regulate the host immune response following surgical implantation and thus facilitate specific local cell infiltration and tissue deposition. There has been a dramatic transformation in our understanding of the role of the immune system, both innate and adaptive; these changes include recognition of the plasticity of immune cells, especially macrophages, cross-talk between the immune system and stem cells, and the necessity for in situ transition between inflammatory and regulatory immune cell phenotypes. The exploitation of these findings and the design and manufacture of new biomaterials is occurring at an astounding pace. There is currently no book directed at the interdisciplinary principles guiding the design, manufacture, testing, and clinical translation of biomaterials that proactively regulate the host tissue immune response. The challenge for academia, industry, and regulatory agencies to encourage innovation while assuring safety and maximizing efficacy has never been greater. Given the highly interdisciplinary requirements for the design, manufacture and use of immunomodulatory biomaterials, this book will prove a useful single resource across disciplines. Holistically covers the design, manufacture, testing, and clinical translation of biomaterials that proactively regulate the host tissue immune response Provides a single reference for understanding and utilizing the host response in biomaterials design An international collaboration of leading researchers in the field offering a novel insight into this fast-growing area

With over 2 million bone graft procedures ever year, bone is the second most transplanted material behind blood. However, limited tissue supply and post-operative concerns for donor site pain and morbidity motivate alternative strategies to drive bone regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are found within multiple tissue compartments in the postnatal organism, making them widely accessible for autologous cell therapy and a promising alternative to bone grafts. However, loss of osteogenic phenotype, poor cell viability, and insufficient vasculature infiltration after implantation challenge clinical application of tissue engineered constructs. Cell-derived extracellular matrix (ECM), is a biomimetic platform that provides a natural niche to promote trophic factor secretion, cell adhesion, survival, and osteogenic differentiation. We hypothesized a cell-secreted ECM would select endothelial and stem/progenitor cell populations from tissue aspirates to enhance cell survival and instruct cell function, resulting in improved osteogenic potential. First, we hypothesized MSC-derived ECM-coated scaffolds would enhance osteogenic differentiation and bone formation by culture expanded bone marrow-derived MSCs. Human MSCs cultured on ECM-coated scaffolds exhibited increased metabolic activity and decreased apoptosis compared to uncoated scaffolds. In short-term culture, MSCs on ECM-coated substrates secreted more proangiogenic factors while maintaining markers of osteogenic differentiation. Upon implantation, we detected improved survival of MSCs on ECM-coated scaffolds over 3 weeks. Histological evaluation revealed enhanced cellularization and osteogenic differentiation in ECM-coated scaffolds compared to controls. To determine whether the bioactivity of cell-secreted ECM was dependent on cell source, we assessed the osteogenic response of human stromal vascular fraction (SVF) on ECMs secreted by bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as well as adipose stem/stromal cells (ASCs) and human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). Mass spectrometry analysis identified 278, 225, and 150 distinct proteins within MSC-, ASC-, and HDF-derived ECMs, respectively, suggesting that stromal cell-derived ECMs are more complex than HDF-derived ECMs which contained nearly 50% fewer distinct proteins. Regardless of ECM source, SVF deposited over 8- and 1.3-fold more calcium compared to tissue culture plastic (TCP) and collagen-coated controls, respectively. Flow cytometry confirmed that SVF cultured on ECM retained CD31 and CD34 positive cell populations better than TCP confirming a role for accessory cells in osteogenic differentiation by tissue aspirates. In addition to lipoaspirates, bone marrow aspirates (BMA) contain a rich source of cells for use in several clinical indications including bone repair. However, progenitor cells such as MSCs account for a small fraction of nucleated cells in BMA, requiring extensive in vitro culture for expansion. We hypothesized that cell-secreted ECM could be used to sequester MSCs and accessory cells from BMA for bone regeneration. To generate 3D implantable constructs, BMA was resuspended in media with or without type I collagen or ECM and injected into a perfusion bioreactor system. Compared to uncoated scaffolds, we observed a 30- and 143- fold increase in MSCs when fresh BMA was cultured on collagen- or ECM-coated scaffolds, respectively. Upon subcutaneous implantation, ECM-coated scaffolds promoted cell survival and early vascularization, yet bone formation was comparable across all implant groups, suggesting additional osteogenic cues are necessary. To determine if osteogenic pre-conditioning would improve the bone forming potential of BMA, cells were perfused on ECM-coated scaffold for either 20 hours or 14 days to generate naïve and pre-conditioned constructs, respectively. Naïve constructs secreted high levels of pro-angiogenic growth factors, while pre-conditioned cells exhibited an osteogenic phenotype and scaffolds contained more MSCs and endothelial cells. Constructs were implanted into 3.5 mm defects made in the calvariae of nude rats then monitored for vascular invasion and bone formation over 10 weeks. Vascular infiltration into pre-conditioned implants occurred rapidly over the first 14 days, resulting in greater vessel density compared to naïve implants which peaked at 28 days. Early advantages in vessel formation correlated to increased bone volume and tissue mineral density in pre-conditioned implants at 10 weeks confirming the synergy between angiogenesis and bone formation. Collectively, this dissertation describes the capacity of cell-secreted ECM to sequester, maintain, and direct osteogenic differentiation by two clinically investigated tissue aspirates for bone tissue engineering. Novel strategies that augment bone repair using autologous tissues address a critically unmet need and have direct implications to improve current standards of care at the forefront of orthopaedic regenerative medicine.

This book summarizes the NATO Advanced Research Workshop (ARW) on “Nanoengineered Systems for Regenerative Medicine” that was organized under the auspices of the NATO Security through Science Program. I would like to thank NATO for supporting this workshop via a grant to the co-directors. The objective of ARW was to explore the various facets of regenerative me- cine and to highlight role of the “the nano-length scale” and “nano-scale systems” in defining and controlling cell and tissue environments. The development of novel tissue regenerative strategies require the integration of new insights emerging from studies of cell-matrix interactions, cellular signalling processes, developmental and systems biology, into biomaterials design, via a systems approach. The chapters in the book, written by the leading experts in their respective disciplines, cover a wide spectrum of topics ranging from stem cell biology, developmental biology, ce- matrix interactions, and matrix biology to surface science, materials processing and drug delivery. We hope the contents of the book will provoke the readership into developing regenerative medicine paradigms that combine these facets into cli- cally translatable solutions. This NATO meeting would not have been successful without the timely help of Dr. Ulrike Shastri, Sanjeet Rangarajan and Ms. Sabine Benner, who assisted in the organization and implementation of various elements of this meeting. Thanks are also due Dr. Fausto Pedrazzini and Ms. Alison Trapp at NATO HQ (Brussels, Belgium). The commitment and persistence of Ms.
