Tissue engineering bioreactors have been used in order to achieve production of artificial tissue, increasing cell proliferation capacity and yield and/or in vitro tissue/disease modelling. Although it is still discussing how to obtain functional and vascular tissue with these bioreactors, preclinical and clinical studies are ongoing. Tissue engineering bioreactors have been used as lab-scale bioreactors until now. Crucial potential application areas can be created by increasing the production capacity and bioprocess efficiency of these bioreactors. In this review, recent bioreactor technologies such as spinner flask, rotating wall/bed, hollow fiber membrane, perfusion and mechanical stimuli bioreactors are briefly presented in terms of their potential applications in medical field especially in the scope of scale-up approaches such as bubble column, stirred tank, membrane, air lift, fluidized packed and bed bioreactors. Peer Review History: Received 1 May 2020; Revised 11 June; Accepted 6 July, Available online 15 July 2020 UJPR follows the most transparent and toughest ‘Advanced OPEN peer review’ system. The identity of the authors and, reviewers will be known to each other. This transparent process will help to eradicate any possible malicious/purposeful interference by any person (publishing staff, reviewer, editor, author, etc) during peer review. As a result of this unique system, all reviewers will get their due recognition and respect, once their names are published in the papers. We expect that, by publishing peer review reports with published papers, will be helpful to many authors for drafting their article according to the specifications. Auhors will remove any error of their article and they will improve their article(s) according to the previous reports displayed with published article(s). The main purpose of it is ‘to improve the quality of a candidate manuscript’. Our reviewers check the ‘strength and weakness of a manuscript honestly’. There will increase in the perfection, and transparency.

Phospholipids (PLs), essential components of cell membranes, play significant roles in maintaining the structural integrity and functionality of joint tissues. One of the main components of synovial joint fluid (SJF) is PLs. Structures such as PLs that are found in low amounts in biological fluids may need to be selectively enriched to be analyzed. Monodisperse-mesoporous SiO₂ microspheres were synthesized by a multi-step hydrolysis condensation method for the selective enrichment and separation of PLs in the SJF. The microspheres were characterized by SEM, XPS, XRD, and BET analyses. SiO₂ microspheres had a 161.5 m²/g surface area, 1.1 cm³/g pore volume, and 6.7 nm pore diameter, which were efficient in the enrichment of PLs in the SJF. The extracted PLs with sorbents were analyzed using Q-TOF LC/MS in a gradient elution mode with a C18 column [2.1 × 100 mm, 2.5 μM, Xbridge Waters (Milford, MA, USA)]. An untargeted lipidomic approach was performed, and the phospholipid enrichment was successfully carried out using the proposed solid-phase extraction (SPE) protocol. Recovery of the SPE extraction of PLs using sorbents was compared to the classical liquid–liquid extraction (LLE) procedure for lipid extraction. The results showed that monodisperse-mesoporous SiO₂ microspheres were eligible for selective enrichment of PLs in SJF samples. These microspheres can be used to identify PLs changes in articular joint cartilage (AJC) in physiological and pathological conditions including osteoarthritis (OA) research.
