Osseointegration of implants is a complex physiological process that requires temporal and spatial regulation of immune responses, angiogenesis , and osteogenesis. To achieve efficient and long-term osseointegration, type I collagen (COL1) decorated nanoporous network was developed on titanium substrates via alkali treatment , polydopamine coating, and layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly. It was noted that the simple physisorbed COL1 could be easily desorbed from the nanostructured surface , however, multilayer COL1 constructed by polydopamine and LBL self-assembly obscured the nanoporous network of the alkali-treated titanium surfaces. Interestingly, the nanostructured surface covalently immobilized with COL1 (T-ADC) could timely convert macrophages (MΦs) from pro-inflammatory M1 to pro-healing M2 phenotype, generating a beneficial osteoimmune microenvironment and promoting angio/osteo-genesis. RNA sequencing revealed that the nanostructure and COL1 could synergistically activate RhoA/ROCK, PI3K-AKT, and classical MAPK signaling pathways in MΦs to sustain the cell cycle, and trigger autocrine feedback-mediated JAK-STAT and FoxO signaling pathways, which in turn motivated autophagy and oxidative stress resistance and attenuated lipopolysaccharide-induced Toll-like receptor signaling pathway and its downstream NF-κB and JNK/p38 MAPK signaling cascades, leading to the inhibition of inflammation and osteoclastic-related gene expression of MΦs. Simultaneously, T-ADC prominently facilitated angiogenesis of endothelial cells and osteogenesis of osteoblasts as well as their cross-talks, further highlighting synergistically positive effects of the nanostructure and COL1 on osseointegration. In vivo experiments revealed that T-ADC could induce abundant new bone mass and ameliorative osseointegration, corroborating the in vitro results. The study elucidated that the COL1 decorated nanoporous network on titanium surfaces could significantly regulate early inflammatory reaction and subsequent angio/osteo-genesis processes, resulting in favorable osseointegration.

Ethnopharmacological relevance Xiebai San (XBS), a classic Chinese prescription, has been used for the clinical treatment of pneumonia-related diseases for thousands of years. However, the anti-pneumonia pharmacodynamic material basis of XBS and its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Aim of the study This study aimed to comprehensively investigate and verify the anti-pneumonia pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanisms of XBS. Materials and methods This study explored the anti-pneumonia activity and key pneumonia targets of XBS in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced zebrafish and RAW264.7 cells in vivo and in vitro through transcriptomics, western blotting, and reverse transcription–quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT–qPCR). The chemical fingerprint of XBS was established using high-performance liquid chromatography, and the similarities and areas of characteristic peaks of 15 batches of XBS were analyzed. Based on the spectrum–efficacy relationship, the potential anti-inflammatory components were screened according to their peak areas and efficacy using principal component analysis (PCA), bivariate correlation, and partial least squares regression analysis. Active components that bind to core targets were further screened based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR). The binding mode of proteins and components was simulated via molecular docking, which enabled the identification of the primary active components of XBS, thereby elucidating its anti-pneumonia properties. Finally, the anti-inflammatory activities of these components were verified in vitro . Results XBS decreased neutrophil aggregation in zebrafish and nitric oxide (NO) secretion in RAW264.7 cells as well as suppressed the release of downstream inflammatory cytokines such as iNOS, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-18, and CXCL10 related to TNF and JAK–STAT signaling pathways. The phosphorylation of IκBα, Akt, and Stat3 was alleviated after XBS in cells. The fingerprint similarities of 15 batches of XBS ranged from 0.381 to 0.994, with a large difference. A total of 15 characteristic peaks were identified, and the relative standard deviation of their peak areas ranged from 24.1% to 70.7%. The results of in vitro anti-inflammatory activities of 15 batches of XBS showed that all samples inhibited the expression levels of NO and nine inflammatory markers. The anti-inflammatory index of 15 batches of XBS was determined to be 0.69–0.96 based on transformation of the anti-inflammatory rate and composite index method via PCA. The spectrum–efficacy relationship model of 15 characteristic peak areas and the anti-inflammatory index showed that 7 main potential active components were related to the anti-inflammatory activity of XBS. Moreover, four components (mulberroside A, isoquercitrin, liquiritigenin, and glycyrrhizic acid) screened based on SPR had different affinities toward TNFR1, Akt1, and Stat3 proteins, and the binding modes were elucidated via molecular docking. Finally, in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells, all four active components (at a concentration of 60 μM) significantly inhibited the expression levels of NO and inflammatory markers. Conclusions Based on the comprehensive strategy of spectrum–efficacy relationship and SPR, mulberroside A, isoquercitrin, liquiritigenin, and glycyrrhizic acid were identified as the primary pharmacodynamic active components involved in the anti-pneumonia activity of XBS and were found to intervene in TNF and JAK–STAT signaling pathways.

Wound healing involves distinct phases, including hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, which is a complex and dynamic process. Conventional preparations often fail to meet multiple demands and provide prompt information about wound status. Here, a pH/ROS dual-responsive hydrogel (OHA-PP@ Z -CA@EGF) was constructed based on oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA), phenylboronic acid-grafted ε-polylysine (PP), chlorogenic acid (CA)-loaded ZIF-8 (Z-CA), and epidermal growth factor (EGF), which possesses intrinsic antibacterial, antioxidant, and angiogenic capacities. Due to the Schiff base and Phenylboronate ester bonds, the hydrogel exhibited excellent mechanical properties, strong adhesion, good biodegradability, high biocompatibility, stable rheological properties, and self-healing ability. Moreover, introducing Z -CA as an initiator and nanofiller led to the additional cross-linking of hydrogel through coordination bonds, which further improved the mechanical properties and antioxidant capabilities. Bleeding models of liver and tail amputations demonstrated rapid hemostatic properties of the hydrogel. Besides, the hydrogel regulated macrophage phenotypes via the NF-κB/JAK-STAT pathways, relieved oxidative stress, promoted cell migration and angiogenesis, and accelerated diabetic wound healing. The hydrogel also enabled real-time monitoring of the wound healing stages by colorimetric detection. This multifunctional hydrogel opens new avenues for the treatment and management of full-thickness diabetic wounds.

Olive flounder ( Paralichthys olivaceus ) is a valuable mariculture fish that shows female-biased sexual size dimorphism (SSD), yet the molecular mechanisms responsible for this phenomenon remain poorly understood. In this study, the growth differences between females and males were compared, and comparative transcriptome analyses of brains/pituitaries, livers, muscles, and gonads from 13-month-old females and males were performed. The critical time window for SSD was from 13- to 14-month-old, with females reaching significantly larger sizes than males. Muscle cell size and plasma growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor 1 and 2 (IGF1, IGF2), 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT), and 17β-estradiol (E2) levels had no significant differences between the sexes of 13- and 14-month-old flounders. Furthermore, the RNA-seq data revealed differential expression in the genes encoding the receptors for these hormones, suggesting that regulation may occur at the receptor level, potentially leading to SSD during the critical window. RNA-seq analysis identified 88, 645, 414, and 15,833 differentially expressed genes between females and males in brains/pituitaries, livers, muscles, and gonads, respectively. KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) and GSEA-based KEGG analyses revealed that some pathways associated with growth and development, including “prolactin signaling pathway” in brains/pituitaries, “cell cycle”, “oocyte meiosis”, and “DNA replication” in livers, “focal adhesion”, “ECM-receptor interaction”, “protein digestion and absorption”, “arginine and proline metabolism”, and “cysteine and methionine metabolism” in muscles, and “Hippo signaling pathway” and “JAK-STAT signaling pathway” in gonads may be involved in the establishment of sexual growth differences. Notably, females had lower steroid hormone synthesis abilities than males in brains/pituitaries, livers, and gonads, indicating the importance of sex steroid hormones in the establishment of SSD. Moreover, genes including frizzled3 ( fzd3 ) and prolactin ( prl ) in brains/pituitaries, and growth hormone receptor ( ghr ), estrogen receptor ( esr1 ), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 ( igfbp3 ), bone morphogenetic protein 8A-like ( bmp8a ), leptin receptor ( lepr ), and lipoprotein lipase-like ( lpl ) in livers emerge as potential candidates for the establishment of SSD. In conclusion, this study may help clarify the molecular mechanisms involved in SSD-related growth traits in flounder and provide basic data for genetic breeding of flounder.
