Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women worldwide. Surgical removal of tumors is often necessary and many patients suffer complications due to subsequent breast reconstruction. A safe and effective breast reconstructive material is needed for patients recovering from surgical removal of small breast cancer tumors. Our lab has developed injectable collagen/tannic acid beads seeded with patient-derived preadipocytes for regeneration of healthy breast tissue in patients post-lumpectomy. Previous research indicates that the inclusion of tannic acid in the matrix imparts an anticancer property. This research seeks to determine the variables needed to control collagen/tannic acid bead diameter and seeded cell attachment, which are essential to proper bead implantation and function. We found that as tannic acid concentration increases within the beads, cell attachment decreases. Bead diameter is controlled by bead generator voltage, solution osmolality, the degree of cell attachment, and tannic acid concentrations. Higher voltages resulted in significant decrease in bead diameter. Collagen/tannic acid beads decreased in diameter when placed in solutions of increasing osmolality. Higher degrees of cell attachment across the surface of the beads were associated with a significant decrease in diameter. In beads made with high concentrations of tannic acid, bead diameter was found to decrease. Collagen/TA beads are a promising subdermal tissue regenerative matrix with anticancer activity as an alternative to simple lipofilling in breast reconstructive procedures. This study was conducted to better understand the properties of collagen/TA beads in order to improve injection efficacy and tissue regenerative activity.

Collagen is a key component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in organs and tissues throughout the body and is used for many tissue engineering applications. Electrospinning of collagen can produce scaffolds in a wide variety of shapes, fiber diameters and porosities to match that of the native ECM. This systematic review aims to pool data from available manuscripts on electrospun collagen and tissue engineering to provide insight into the connection between source material, solvent, crosslinking method and functional outcomes. D-banding was most often observed in electrospun collagen formed using collagen type I isolated from calfskin, often isolated within the laboratory, with short solution solubilization times. All physical and chemical methods of crosslinking utilized imparted resistance to degradation and increased strength. Cytotoxicity was observed at high concentrations of crosslinking agents and when abbreviated rinsing protocols were utilized. Collagen and collagen-based scaffolds were capable of forming engineered tissues in vitro and in vivo with high similarity to the native structures.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is widely used in dynamic biological microfluidic applications. As a highly hydrophobic material, native PDMS does not support cell attachment and culture, especially in dynamic conditions. Previous covalent coating methods use glutaraldehyde (GA) which, however, is cytotoxic. This paper introduces a novel and simple method for binding collagen type I covalently on PDMS using ascorbic acid (AA) as a cross-linker instead of GA. We compare the novel method against physisorption and GA cross-linker-based methods. The coatings are characterized by immunostaining, contact angle measurement, atomic force microscopy and infrared spectroscopy, and evaluated in static and stretched human adipose stem cell (hASC) cultures up to 13 days. We found that AA can replace GA as a cross-linker in the covalent coating method and that the coating is durable after sonication and after 6 days of stretching. Furthermore, we show that hASCs attach and proliferate better on AA cross-linked samples compared with physisorbed or GA-based methods. Thus, in this paper, we provide a new PDMS coating method for studying cells, such as hASCs, in static and dynamic conditions. The proposed method is an important step in the development of PDMS-based devices in cell and tissue engineering applications.

The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of endotoxin adsorbed to dental surfaces and to collagen type I on the migration, attachment, and orientation of human gingival fibroblasts (HGF). Transversely cut porcine tooth root slices (RS), 200 μm thick, were prepared. Half of the RS obtained were partially demineralized in EDTA. Half of the demineralized and non-demineralized RS were incubated with 400 μg/mL of endotoxin for 24 hr, whereas the other half were maintained in PBS and served as controls. Experimental and control RS were placed on confluent layers of HFG and cultured for six days. Cell migration toward and cell attachment to the periphery of the RS and the formation of oriented cell sheets were assessed by means of photographic techniques. Additionally, six-day-old cultures were fixed and processed for SEM observation. In separate experiments, the effect of endotoxin on cell attachment to collagen type I and on contraction of three-dimensional collagen gels was assessed. It was found that: (i) bacterial endotoxin inhibited migration and attachment of HGF to both demineralized and non-demineralized cementum and interfered with the development of oriented cellular structure ; (ii) the inhibitory effect was significantly more pronounced for non-demineralized than for demineralized cementum; (iii) the morphology of HGF attached to endotoxin-treated dental surfaces was altered compared with that of their controls; and (iv) bacterial endotoxin inhibited cell attachment to collagen type I and delayed the contraction of collagen gel.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a low-cost procedure to deliver high concentrations of autologous growth factors (GFs). Platelet activation is a crucial step that might influence the availability of bioactive molecules and therefore tissue healing. Activation of PRP from ten voluntary healthy males was performed by adding 10% of CaCl2, 10% of autologous thrombin, 10% of a mixture of CaCl2+ thrombin, and 10% of collagen type I. Blood derivatives were incubated for 15 and 30 minutes and 1, 2, and 24 hours and samples were evaluated for the release of VEGF, TGF-β1, PDGF-AB, IL-1β, and TNF-α. PRP activated with CaCl2, thrombin, and CaCl2/thrombin formed clots detected from the 15-minute evaluation, whereas in collagen-type-I-activated samples no clot formation was noticed. Collagen type I produced an overall lower GF release. Thrombin, CaCl2/thrombin, and collagen type I activated PRPs showed an immediate release of PDGF and TGF-β1that remained stable over time, whereas VEGF showed an increasing trend from 15 minutes up to 24 hours. CaCl2induced a progressive release of GFs from 15 minutes and increasing up to 24 hours. The method chosen to activate PRP influences both its physical form and the releasate in terms of GF amount and release kinetic.

And Function

Using the Drosophila cell line MLDmBG-1, a monoclonal antibody aBG-1 that can inhibit not only cell clumping but also cell spreading was generated. This antibody immunoprecipitates a complex of molecules consisting of a major 120 × 10(3) Mr and other components. To characterize the 120 × 10(3) Mr component, we purified it, generated antibodies to it, and cloned its cDNA. Sequencing of this cDNA suggests that the 120 × 10(3) Mr molecule is identical to PS beta, a beta chain of Drosophila integrins. The other components immunoprecipitated included two alpha chains of Drosophila integrins, PS1 alpha and PS2 alpha, as revealed using specific antibodies to these molecules. These suggest that aBG-1 recognizes the PS beta associated with PS1 alpha or PS2 alpha. However, immunostaining of embryos and larvae with aBG-1 showed that the staining pattern is similar to that for PS2 alpha but not for PS beta, suggesting that the antibody preferentially recognizes the PS beta associated with particular alpha chains in situ. We then attempted to characterize the ligands for these integrin complexes, using culture dishes coated with various vertebrate matrix proteins. These cells spread very well on dishes coated with vitronectin and, to a lesser extent, on those with fibronectin. This spreading was partially inhibited by aBG-1, but not by other control antibodies or RGD peptides. The cell attachment to these substrata was not affected by the antibody. The cells also can attach to dishes coated with laminin but without spreading, and this attachment was not inhibited by aBG-1. Furthermore, they do not attach to dishes coated with collagen type I, type IV, and fibrinogen. These results indicate that Drosophila PS integrins can recognize vertebrate vitronectin, and also fibronectin with a weaker affinity, at sites other than RGD sequences, and thus can function in cell-substratum adhesion.

The movement of integrins into focal adhesive structures accompanies cell attachment to extracellular matrix. The kinetics of incorporation of integrins into focal contacts was studied during attachment to matrix of mesangial cells of the kidney glomerulus. On collagen, fibronectin, laminin and vitronectin, the number and intensity of talin-focal contacts increased with time. Talin-containing focal contacts were present in mesangial cells within 2 h of plating and in control cells (HT1080 and Rugli) within 1 h. Integrin alpha-chains colocalized with talin, dependent on the matrix substrate. The attachment, spreading and organization of integrin into focal contacts was not affected when endogenous protein synthesis was suppressed with cycloheximide. In Rugli, alpha 1 beta 1 organized into focal contacts on collagen and laminin, while in HT1080 alpha 2 beta 1 organized on collagen type I, alpha 5 beta 1 on fibronectin, alpha 6 beta 1 on laminin, and alpha 3 beta 1 and alpha 4 beta 1 were diffusely distributed on all substrates. These distributions mirrored the usage and expression patterns previously established for integrins in these cells and was as predicted from the literature. In mesangial cells, however, alpha 3 beta 1 was also organized into prominent focal contact arrays on collagen, fibronectin, EHS and human placental laminins, but not on vitronectin, while alpha 6 beta 1 was not organized. Initial attachment and spreading of mesangial cells was absolutely dependent on divalent cations. Mg2+ and Mn2+ supported attachment on all substrates, while Ca2+ stimulated attachment on laminin (E8), fibronectin and vitronectin. The data suggest that the functional integrins on mesangial cells include alpha 1 beta 1 (on collagen and laminin) alpha 2 beta 1 (on collagen), alpha 5 beta 1 (on fibronectin) and alpha V beta 3 (on vitronectin). However, mesangial cells do not use alpha 6 beta 1 on laminin, and the data support a role for alpha 3 beta 1 as putative receptor for fibronectin, collagen and laminin.

Sepharose 4B

Heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycan, isolated from the cell surface of nonadhering murine myeloma cells (P3X63-Ag8653), does not bind to plasma fibronectin, but binds partially to collagen type I, as assayed by affinity chromatography with proteins immobilized on cyanogen bromide-activated Sepharose 4B. Identical results were obtained when myeloma heparan sulfate was cochromatographed, on the same fibronectin and collagen columns, with cell surface heparan sulfates collagen columns, with cell surface heparan sulfates from adhering Swiss mouse 3T3 and SV3T3 cells. These latter heparan sulfates do, however, bind to both fibronectin and collagen, as reported earlier (Stamatoglou, S.C., and J.M. Keller, 1981, Biochim. Biophys. Acta., 719:90-97). Cell adhesion assays established that hydrated collagen substrata can support myeloma cell attachment, but fibronectin cannot. Saturation of the heparan sulfate binding sites on the collagen substrata with heparan sulfate or heparin, prior to cell inoculation, abolished the ability to support cell adhesion, whereas chondroitin 4 sulfate, chondroitin 6 sulfate, and hyaluronic acid had no effect.
