The Application of Biomaterials in Spinal Cord Injury

Chi Feng et al.

Summary: The spinal cord and brain are vital to the central nervous system (CNS), but spinal cord injury (SCI) caused by external forces is challenging to treat and results in loss of motor, sensory, and autonomic functions. The incidence of SCI is increasing globally, emphasizing the urgent need for treatments. Various approaches, such as surgery, drug therapy, stem cell transplantation, regenerative medicine, and rehabilitation therapy, have been developed. Among them, biomaterials using tissue engineering and bioscaffolds show promise for transporting cells or drugs to injured sites. However, clinical evidence for the treatment of SCI with biomaterials remains limited. This review provides inspiration and guidance for future studies and applications of biomaterials in SCI treatment.

Current Concepts of Biomaterial Scaffolds and Regenerative Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury

Hidenori Suzuki et al.

Summary: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that causes significant neurological impairment and imposes substantial social and financial burdens. Current management approaches focus on symptomatic treatment, lacking effective therapeutic strategies. However, recent advancements in regenerative medicine have shown promise in preclinical and clinical studies. The utilization of biomaterial scaffolds, combined with stem cell therapy or other regenerative therapies, holds great potential in accelerating the development of novel therapeutic strategies for SCI. This review summarizes the latest insights from preclinical and clinical studies utilizing biomaterial scaffolds for regenerative therapy and provides a comprehensive overview of the biomaterial strategies employed.

Three-Dimensional Artificial Skin Construct Bioprinted with a Marine-Based Biocomposite

Hyeongjin Lee et al.

Summary: Researchers have developed a new composite biomaterial ink using decellularized extracellular matrices (dECM) from tilapia and cod fish. The biocomposite exhibited higher cellular activities compared to the controls. Based on these results, the fish-skin-based biocomposite construct is considered a potential biomaterial ink for skin regeneration.

Intracutaneous Transplantation of Islets Within a Biodegradable Temporizing Matrix as an Alternative Site for Islet Transplantation

Darling Rojas-Canales et al.

Summary: A clinically proven biodegradable temporizing matrix (BTM) has been found to facilitate the formation of a well-vascularized intracutaneous neodermis within the skin, which improves the survival and functionality of transplanted islet cells. The experiments conducted on mice and pigs showed that BTM does not harm the viability and function of islet cells, and it can maintain the normal structure and function of the islets. BTM has the potential to become an alternative site for islet transplantation.

Composite Fibrin and Carbon Microfibre Implant to Modulate Postraumatic Inflammation after Spinal Cord Injury

Vincent Escarrat et al.

Summary: Poor functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI) has prompted the development of novel strategies. Our recent study demonstrated the immunomodulatory and pro-regenerative effects of bio-functionalized carbon microfibres (MFs) in a rat model of SCI. To enhance tissue repair and ease MF implantation, we developed a composite implant consisting of MFs embedded within a fibrin hydrogel. Our findings showed that the inclusion of MFs in the hydrogel inhibited fibrin degradation, promoted early recruitment of immune cells, and facilitated axonal regeneration over a 3-month period.

Elevated intraspinal pressure in traumatic spinal cord injury is a promising therapeutic target

Chao-Hua Yang et al.

Summary: The current recommended management for acute traumatic spinal cord injury aims to reduce secondary injury incidence and promote functional recovery. Elevated ISP, mainly caused by hemorrhage, edema, and blood-spinal cord barrier destruction, peaks at 3 days after traumatic spinal cord injury. Promising treatments for reducing ISP within this time window include duraplasty and hypertonic saline.

Porcine Model of Spinal Cord Injury: A Systematic Review

Carly Weber-Levine et al.

Summary: Spinal cord injury is a devastating disease with limited treatment options. The porcine model, which is similar to humans, has been widely used for understanding the disease and testing interventions. However, its adoption is limited by the complexities of care and range of testing parameters. This systematic review evaluated 63 studies and summarized the characteristics and interventions used in the porcine model of spinal cord injury.

Effect of Durotomy versus Myelotomy on Tissue Sparing and Functional Outcome after Spinal Cord Injury

Zin Z. Khaing et al.

Summary: Surgical decompression through either durotomy alone or durotomy plus myelotomy effectively mitigates elevated intraspinal pressure following acute traumatic spinal cord injury. Durotomy plus myelotomy surgery promotes tissue sparing, gray matter preservation, motor neuron retention, and recovery of locomotor function. Biomarkers for selecting appropriate surgical strategies in spinal cord injuries need to be developed in the future.

The Cortical Motor System in the Domestic Pig: Origin and Termination of the Corticospinal Tract and Cortico-Brainstem Projections

Patricia del Cerro et al.

Summary: The anatomy and projections of the cortical motor system in domestic pigs were studied, revealing common features with primates and humans. The system may control posture and movement through parallel motor descending pathways, but fewer cortical regions project to the spinal cord in pigs, and the CST does not seem to directly innervate cervical and foreleg motoneurons.

Neuropathological and Motor Impairments after Incomplete Cervical Spinal Cord Injury in Pigs

Patricia Del Cerro et al.

Summary: A model of cervical spinal cord injury was characterized in domestic pigs, showing neuronal loss extending for a relatively small distance, primarily concentrating in the ipsilateral, caudal spinal cord stump; axonal Wallerian degeneration manifested as marked atrophy in the spinal cord segments. In addition to causing chronic monoplegia or severe monoparesis, the first month post-lesion led to postural and motor impairments in the trunk and other legs.
