Although heterogeneous bone scaffolds have shown potential in bone defect repair, their capability of aiding bone regeneration need to be further enhanced. Strontium, one important trace element in bone, has a well-known favorable effect on bone repair. Here a strontium containing scaffold (CPB/PCL/Sr) based on superficially porous calcined porcine bone (CPB) was obtained straightforwardly by sequential coating of SrCl 2 and polycaprolactone (PCL). The basic characterization revealed that PCL coating could simultaneously improve the mechanical properties and, more importantly, restrain strontium release. Moreover, in vitro behaviors of human MSCs on CPB, CPB/PCL, and CPB/PCL/Sr were studied in detail. The comprehensive results of proliferation, osteogenic gene expression, ALP staining, and ALP activity demonstrated that PCL coating slightly impaired the bone repair potential of CPB. In contrast, CPB/PCL/Sr better supported the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs than CPB,highlighting the role of strontium. The in vivo test confirmed a better new bone formation of CPB/PCL/Sr than CPB and CPB/PCL. These results verified the superiority of incorporating strontium to improve the bone-forming ability of CPB, offering a promising alternative for bone defect repair.

This work aimed to develop a feasible technology to reuse dead pig biowaste for heavy metals removal , which was first carbonized into pig bone char (PBC) after pyrolysis and further functionalized with amino ( NH 2 ) to improve its affinity with heavy metals. The application of PBC after NH 2 -functionalization for aqueous heavy metals removal was explored, including Pb 2+ , Cu 2+ , and different complex Cu(II) species. PBC@SiO 2 -NH 2 showed comparable performance with AC@SiO 2 -NH 2 . The adsorption capacity of Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ by PBC@SiO 2 -NH 2 was 120 and 30 mg g −1 , respectively. The NH 2 functionalization enhanced the adsorption of complex Cu(II) species, and PBC@SiO 2 -NH 2 exhibited good performance under a wide pH range and coexisting ions. The adsorption of Cu(II) EDTA species with an EDTA/Cu(II) molar ratio of 1.0 by PBC would be enhanced ~3 times and ~6 times after NH 2 functionalization and further addition of Fe 3+ , respectively. The results of EDX , elemental mapping, and XPS confirmed the adsorption of Cu(II) species. The adsorption kinetics , isotherm, and thermodynamics of different Cu(II) species by PBC@SiO 2 -NH 2 were investigated. The regeneration of PBC@SiO 2 -NH 2 was easily performed via acidic wash. These results suggested the application potential of the reuse of biowaste, which could be a promising adsorbent for aqueous heavy metals after specific functionalization.

This study investigated the DPP-IV inhibitory activity of taste-modulating peptides from porcine bone and elucidated their inhibitory mechanisms. Sensory evaluation identified seven peptides with effects on umami taste or saltiness enhancement. Computational tools predicted that they all possessed DPP-IV inhibitory potential. Post-digestion, GPTAANRM, GPGCKAGL, NLRDNYRF and GVNAMLRK exhibited superior DPP-IV inhibition (IC 50 : 206.16 - 317.59 μmol/L). Molecular docking revealed that all these four peptides interacted with active residues in S1, S2 and S3 pocket of DPP-IV and the Lineweaver-Burk plots indicated their competitive inhibition mechanism. All these peptides alleviated insulin resistance in HepG2 cells to some extent, with GPTAANRM and GPGCKAGL notably reducing the blood glucose curve area in C57BL/6J mice. This research enhances our understanding of the beneficial role of taste-modulating peptides in diabetes management and suggests their potential in developing dietary strategies to optimize glycemic control in diabetic individuals.

The current therapy for muscle injury is facing challenges in tissue self-regeneration and function restoration, which declines steeply with age. Tissue engineering is a promising strategy for treating skeletal muscular disorders. Natural polysaccharides have great potential to support cell growth and attachment as tissue-engineered scaffolds. A three-dimensional (3D) porous hydrogel scaffold has been prepared based on the double network of natural polysaccharide sodium alginate (SA), chitosan (CS) and Ca 2+ ions through the freeze-drying process. The physical, mechanical, and biological properties of the CS/SA/Ca 2+ hydrogel scaffold can be controlled by adjusting the SA/CS ratio. The physically cross-linked double network hydrogel showed good biosafety, high stability and satisfactory degradation rate . When the CS/SA molar ratio was 1:1.2 (H-1.2 group), the pore size and compression modulus of the double network hydrogel were 104.06 ± 2.64 µm and 40.00 ± 2.52 kPa, respectively. The results of in vitro evaluation showed that the 3D structure of the CS/SA/Ca 2+ double network hydrogel could well support adhesion and proliferation of C2C12 murine myoblasts and porcine skeletal muscle stem cells. The best cell growth effect was achieved in the H-1.2 group. The physically cross-linked CS/SA/Ca 2+ double network hydrogel can be a promising printable material as the cell scaffold in applications of skeletal muscle tissue engineering.

In this study, Agaricus bisporus and pork bone stocks (PBS) were enzymatically digested, and the equivalent umami concentration (EUC) value, sensory evaluation and hydrolysis degree (DH) were used as indexes to find the optimal enzyme digestion conditions. Finally, the optimal enzymatic solution was mixed and analyzed for flavor compounds in the optimal enzymatic solution before and after Maillard reaction (MR) by GC × GC-O-MS. The results showed that the enzymatic digestion of mushroom stocks (MS) with a combination of Cellulase-Protamex™ (C-P) yielded high levels of flavor amino acids (40.733 ± 0.340 g/L), and 5′-nucleotides (12.807 ± 0.239 mg/g), and EUC values up to 1755.786 ± 40.759 g/100 g. Meanwhile, the simultaneous enzymatic hydrolysis of PBS with a combination of Flavourzyme™-Protamex™ (F-P) yielded high levels of flavor amino acids (51.265 ± 0.550 g/L) and 5′-nucleotides (17.477 ± 0.260 mg/g) with EUC values up to 3420.619 ± 114.193 g/100 g. Using the DH and sensory evaluation as indicators, the results showed that the greatest DH and the highest sensory scores were obtained with the addition of C-P-MS and F-P-MS at 7:3 (m/m). Finally, the compounds with large changes in concentration were mainly mushroom flavored 1-octen-3-ol (2208.614 ± 12.879 μg/kg), sweet-flavored 3-octanone (269.871 ± 11.691 μg/kg), floral-flavored benzyl alcohol (156.704 ± 14.859 μg/kg), green flavored 2-pentylfuran (190.470 ± 12.934 μg/kg), and almond-flavored furfural (523.555 ± 5.674 μg/kg).
