Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have demonstrated significant therapeutic potential in heart failure (HF) treatment. However, their clinical application is impeded by low retention rate and low cellular activity of MSCs caused by high inflammatory and reactive oxygen species (ROS) microenvironment. In this study, monascus pigment (MP) nanoparticle (PPM) was proposed for improving adverse microenvironment and assisting in transplantation of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs). Meanwhile, in order to load PPM and reduce the mechanical damage of BMSCs, injectable hydrogels based on Schiff base cross-linking were prepared. The PPM displays ROS-scavenging and macrophage phenotype-regulating capabilities, significantly enhancing BMSCs survival and activity in HF microenvironment. This hydrogel demonstrates superior biocompatibility, injectability, and tissue adhesion. With the synergistic effects of injectable, adhesive hydrogel and the microenvironment-modulating properties of MP, cardiac function was effectively improved in the pericardial sac of rats. Our results offer insights into advancing BMSCs-based HF therapies and their clinical applications.

期刊介绍:
Bioactive Materials is a peer-reviewed research publication that focuses on advancements in bioactive materials. The journal accepts research papers, reviews, and rapid communications in the field of next-generation biomaterials that interact with cells, tissues, and organs in various living organisms.
The primary goal of Bioactive Materials is to promote the science and engineering of biomaterials that exhibit adaptiveness to the biological environment. These materials are specifically designed to stimulate or direct appropriate cell and tissue responses or regulate interactions with microorganisms.
The journal covers a wide range of bioactive materials, including those that are engineered or designed in terms of their physical form (e.g. particulate, fiber), topology (e.g. porosity, surface roughness), or dimensions (ranging from macro to nano-scales). Contributions are sought from the following categories of bioactive materials:
Bioactive metals and alloys
Bioactive inorganics: ceramics, glasses, and carbon-based materials
Bioactive polymers and gels
Bioactive materials derived from natural sources
Bioactive composites
These materials find applications in human and veterinary medicine, such as implants, tissue engineering scaffolds, cell/drug/gene carriers, as well as imaging and sensing devices.
