A cell leakproof porous poly(DL ‐lactic‐co‐glycolic acid) (PLGA)‐collagen hybrid scaffold was prepared by wrapping the surfaces of a collagen sponge except the top surface for cell seeding with a bi‐layered PLGA mesh. The PLGA‐collagen hybrid scaffold had a structure consisting of a central collagen sponge formed inside a bi‐layered PLGA mesh cup. The hybrid scaffold showed high mechanical strength. The cell seeding efficiency was 90.0% when human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were seeded in the hybrid scaffold. The central collagen sponge provided enough space for cell loading and supported cell adhesion, while the bi‐layered PLGA mesh cup protected against cell leakage and provided high mechanical strength for the collagen sponge to maintain its shape during cell culture. The MSCs in the hybrid scaffolds showed round cell morphology after 4 weeks culture in chondrogenic induction medium. Immunostaining demonstrated that type II collagen and cartilaginous proteoglycan were detected in the extracellular matrices. Gene expression analyses by real‐time PCR showed that the genes encoding type II collagen, aggrecan, and SOX9 were upregulated. These results indicated that the MSCs differentiated and formed cartilage‐like tissue when being cultured in the cell leakproof PLGA‐collagen hybrid scaffold. The cell leakproof PLGA‐collagen hybrid scaffolds should be useful for applications in cartilage tissue engineering. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 2010 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to examine the relation between gene expression and the shape of human intervertebral disc cells cultured in vitro in three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds. Disc cells from 19 subjects were seeded into either a collagen sponge or collagen gel and cultured for 10 days. In situ hybridization was performed on serial sections of paraffin embedded specimens and assessed for expression of selected genes important for extracellular matrix formation: Types I and II collagen, aggrecan and chondroitin-6 sulfotransferase. Rounded cells grown in collagen gel showed expression of Types I and II collagen, aggrecan and chondroitin-6 sulfotransferase; expression of these genes was absent in spindle shaped cells. Cells in the collagen sponge that lay on the sponge margin were frequently spindle shaped; these cells expressed type I collagen, but not type II collagen, aggrecan or chondroitin-6 sulfotransferase. Results presented here provide novel data concerning disc cell gene expression with collagen 3D constructs. This information is useful for future tissue engineering studies that have the challenging goal of selectively modulating gene expression. 相似文献

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) exerts multiple cellular effects that stimulate wound repair in multiple tissues. However, a major obstacle for its successful clinical application is the delivery system, which ultimately controls the in vivo release rate of PDGF. Polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) microspheres (MS) in nanofibrous scaffolds (NFS) have been shown to control the release of rhPDGF-BB in vitro. In order to investigate the effects of rhPDGF-BB release from MS in NFS on gene expression and enhancement of soft tissue engineering, rhPDGF-BB was incorporated into differing molecular weight (MW) polymeric MS. By controlling the MW of the MS over a range of 6.5 KDa-64 KDa, release rates of PDGF can be regulated over periods of weeks to months in vitro. The NFS-MS scaffolds were divided into multiple groups based on MS release characteristics and PDGF concentration ranging from 2.5-25.0 microg and evaluated in vivo in a soft tissue wound repair model in the dorsa of rats. At 3, 7, 14 and 21 days post-implantation, the scaffold implants were harvested followed by assessments of cell penetration, vasculogenesis and tissue neogenesis. Gene expression profiles using cDNA microarrays were performed on the PDGF-releasing NFS. The percentage of tissue invasion into MS-containing NFS at 7 days was higher in the PDGF groups when compared to controls. Blood vessel number in the HMW groups containing either 2.5 or 25 microg PDGF was increased above those of other groups at 7d (p<0.01). Results from cDNA array showed that PDGF strongly enhanced in vivo gene expression of the CXC chemokine family members such as CXCL1, CXCL2 and CXCL5. Thus, sustained release of rhPDGF-BB, controlled by slow-releasing MS associated with the NFS delivery system, enhanced cell migration and angiogenesis in vivo, and may be related to an induced expression of chemokine-related genes. This approach offers a technology to accurately control growth factor release to promote soft tissue engineering in vivo. 相似文献

The development of stem cell technology in combination with advances in biomaterials has opened new ways of producing engineered tissue substitutes. In this study, we investigated whether the therapeutic potential of an acellular porous scaffold made of type I collagen can be improved by the addition of a powerful trophic agent in the form of mesenchymal stromal cells conditioned medium (MSC‐CM) in order to be used as an acellular scaffold for skin wound healing treatment. Our experiments showed that MSC‐CM sustained the adherence of keratinocytes and fibroblasts as well as the proliferation of keratinocytes. Moreover, MSC‐CM had chemoattractant properties for keratinocytes and endothelial cells, attributable to the content of trophic and pro‐angiogenic factors. Also, for the dermal fibroblasts cultured on collagen scaffold in the presence of MSC‐CM versus serum control, the ratio between collagen III and I mRNAs increased by 2‐fold. Furthermore, the gene expression for α‐smooth muscle actin, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐1 and 2 and matrix metalloproteinase‐14 was significantly increased by approximately 2‐fold. In conclusion, factors existing in MSC‐CM improve the colonization of collagen 3D scaffolds, by sustaining the adherence and proliferation of keratinocytes and by inducing a pro‐healing phenotype in fibroblasts. 相似文献

Culturing cells on three-dimensional, biodegradable scaffolds may create tissues suitable either for reconstructive surgery applications or as novel in vitro model systems. In this study, we have tested the hypothesis that the phenotype of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in three-dimensional, engineered tissues is regulated by the chemistry of the scaffold material. Specifically, we have directly compared cell growth and patterns of extracellular matrix (ECM) (e.g. , elastin and collagen) gene expression on two types of synthetic polymer scaffolds and type I collagen scaffolds. The growth rates of SMCs on the synthetic polymer scaffolds were significantly higher than on type I collagen sponges. The rate of elastin production by SMCs on polyglycolic acid (PGA) scaffolds was 3.5 +/- 1.1-fold higher than that on type I collagen sponges on Day 11 of culture. In contrast, the collagen production rate on type I collagen sponges was 3.3 +/- 1.1-fold higher than that on PGA scaffolds. This scaffold-dependent switching between elastin and collagen gene expression was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. The finding that the scaffold chemistry regulates the phenotype of SMCs independent of the scaffold physical form was confirmed by culturing SMCs on two-dimensional films of the scaffold materials. It is likely that cells adhere to these scaffolds via different ligands, as the major protein adsorbed from the serum onto synthetic polymers was vitronectin, whereas fibronectin and vitronectin were present at high density on type I collagen sponges. In summary, this study demonstrates that three-dimensional smooth muscle-like tissues can be created by culturing SMCs on three-dimensional scaffolds, and that the phenotype of the SMCs is strongly regulated by the scaffold chemistry. These engineered tissues provide novel, three-dimensional models to study cellular interaction with ECM in vitro. 相似文献

Novel chitosan/collagen scaffold containing transforming growth factor-beta1 DNA for periodontal tissue engineering 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The current rapid progression in tissue engineering and local gene delivery system has enhanced our applications to periodontal tissue engineering. In this study, porous chitosan/collagen scaffolds were prepared through a freeze-drying process, and loaded with plasmid and adenoviral vector encoding human transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1). These scaffolds were evaluated in vitro by analysis of microscopic structure, porosity, and cytocompatibility. Human periodontal ligament cells (HPLCs) were seeded in this scaffold, and gene transfection could be traced by green fluorescent protein (GFP). The expression of type I and type III collagen was detected with RT-PCR, and then these scaffolds were implanted subcutaneously into athymic mice. Results indicated that the pore diameter of the gene-combined scaffolds was lower than that of pure chitosan/collagen scaffold. The scaffold containing Ad-TGF-beta1 exhibited the highest proliferation rate, and the expression of type I and type III collagen up-regulated in Ad-TGF-beta1 scaffold. After implanted in vivo, EGFP-transfected HPLCs not only proliferated but also recruited surrounding tissue to grow in the scaffold. This study demonstrated the potential of chitosan/collagen scaffold combined Ad-TGF-beta1 as a good substrate candidate in periodontal tissue engineering. 相似文献

A scaffold made of equine collagen type I based material has been assessed for its use in the preparation of tissue-engineered cartilage implants with human articular chondrocytes. Improvements of cell-seeding efficiency and specific gene expression were studied by combining solid scaffold with fibrin glue or human blood plasma. Following 3 weeks of static culture, mRNA expression levels of collagen type I, collagen type II, aggrecan and versican were analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR and compared to those in native cartilage and monolayer cell cultures.Constructs prepared with fibrin glue or plasma showed higher cell seeding efficiencies than those prepared without gel. Chondrocytes seeded directly onto a collagen scaffold appeared fibroblastic in shape while those encapsulated in fibrin gel were spherical. The presence of fibrin glue positively influences on mRNA levels of collagen type II and aggrecan, while blood plasma enhanced only the level of collagen type II expression. Levels of collagen type I and versican decreased in presence of fibrin glue.In orthopaedics, the combination of solid collagen fleece with fibrin gel for implant preparation is seen to be preferred over solid material or even cells in a suspension, since fibrin gel improves seeding capacity of the scaffold, supports equal distribution of cells and stimulates higher chondrogenic phenotype expression. 相似文献

Biological grafts have drawbacks such as donor scarcity, disease transmission, tissue infection, while the scaffolds of either collagen or chitosan fabrics fail to become part of the tissue at the wound site, though they favor the formation of connective tissue matrix. This study developed a novel composite consisting of the combination of atelocollagen and chitosan in order to provide a biodegradable molecular matrix in gel form as a biomimetic surface for cell attachment, to promote the wound healing in excision wounds. We found that the topical application of biopolymer composite on the wound promoted cell proliferation, migration and collagen deposition overtime. The enhanced cellular activity in the collagen-chitosan treated wound tissue was also assed by increased levels of Platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) and Nerve growth factor (NGF) associated with elevated levels of antioxidants and decreased level of lipid peroxidation. The acellular matrix-like topical application material is designed to guide the eventual re-establishment of an anatomically normal skin. The results of this study demonstrate the feasibility of multi-cell regeneration on a molecular system that mimics tissue engineering in vivo. 相似文献

PDGF在大鼠断层供皮区创面愈合过程中表达变化的研究 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
实验研究已经证明Platelet-derivedgrowthfactor(PDGF)能够促进各种类型的伤口愈合,然而在伤口愈合过程中内源性PDGF表达变化的研究却少有报道,为探讨PDGF对伤口愈合的影响,我们应用原位杂交、斑点杂交技术观察了内源性PDGF在大鼠创面愈合过程中的表达变化,结果发现:在创面愈合过程中,肉芽组织中的成纤维细胞,毛细血管内皮细胞及创缘真皮内的毛囊上皮细胞均能表达PDGF-BB基因,在伤后6天,组织修复的高峰期,PDGF-BB基因表达达到最强,伤后12天,伤口完全上皮化,PDGF的基因表达也恢复正常,说明PDGF的基因表达和伤口愈合时间有密切的关系。提示PDGF在创面愈合过程中可能起着重要的调控作用。 相似文献

In order to develop a better wound-dressing to enhance diabetic wound healing, we have examined the biochemical and biophysical features of chitosan-crosslinked collagen sponge (CCCS) and pre-clinically evaluated the CCCS containing recombinant human acidic fibroblast growth factor (CCCS/FGF) in accelerating diabetic wound healing as compared to collagen sponge alone and FGF alone. Collagen crosslinked with chitosan showed several advantages required for wound dressing, including the uniform and porous ultrastructure, less water-imbibition, small interval porosity, high resistance to collagenase digestion and slow release of FGF from CCCS/FGF. Therapeutic effect of the new wound-dressing containing FGF (i.e.: CCCS/FGF) on diabetic wound healing was examined in type 1 diabetic rat model in which hyperglycemia was induced by single dose of streptozotocin (STZ) and persisted for two months. The CCCS/FGF provided the most efficiently therapeutic effect among various treatments, showing the shortest healing time (14 days in the CCCS/FGF-treated group as compared to 18~21 days in other treatment groups), the quickest tissue collagen generation, the earliest and highest TGF-beta1 expression and dermal cell proliferation (PCNA expression). All these results suggest that CCCS/FGF is an ideal wound-dressing to improve the recovery of healing-impaired wound such as diabetic skin wound, which provides a great potential use in clinics for diabetic patients in the future. 相似文献

Nanofibers(NFs)have been widely used in tissue engineering such as wound healing.In this work,the antibacterial ZnO quantum dots(ZnO QDs)have been incorporated into the biocompatible poly(ε-caprolactone)/collagen(PCL/Col)fibrous scaffolds for wound healing.The as-fabricated PCL-Col/ZnO fibrous scaffolds exhibited good swelling,antibacterial activity,and biodegradation behaviors,which were beneficial for the applications as a wound dressing.Moreover,the PCL-Col/ZnO fibrous scaffolds showed excellent cytocompatibility for promoting cell proliferation.The resultant PCL-Col/ZnO fibrous scaffolds containing vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)also exhibited promoted wound-healing effect through promoting expression of transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)and the vascular factor(CD31)in tissues in the early stages of wound healing.This new electrospun fibrous scaffolds with wound-healing promotion and antibacterial property should be convenient for treating wound healing. 相似文献

Effects of hepatocyte growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor on the repair of meniscal defects in vitro 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Summary Injuries to the avascular region of the meniscus occur frequently and may be difficult to repair. This study was designed
to determine whether growth factors could diffuse from a collagen sponge or a collagen gel into meniscal tissue and stimulate
healing of defects using an in vitro model. The diffusion of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) from the collagen carriers
into the medium was rapid with approximately 50% being released from the collagen sponge within the first hour. After 5 d
of incubation, 8% of the PDGF was present in the meniscus, 11% in the collagen sponge, and 62% had been released into the
medium. Similar results were obtained when a collagen gel was used as a carrier. Histological evaluation of the meniscal explants
after 2 wk in culture revealed extensive proteoglycan staining in the areas surrounding defects treated with either hepatocyte
growth factor (HGF) or PDGF compared with controls without growth factor. The HGF-PDGF treatment resulted in alignment and
migration of meniscal cells toward the defect, which was not observed in untreated controls. At 3–7 d, increased number of
cells were observed in defects treated with collagen gels (but not the sponge) with PDGF-HGF. At 4 wk, combined HGF-PDGF treatment
resulted in the formation of tissue with birefringence by polarized microscopy, suggestive of organized collagen. The data
suggest that use of specific PDGF-HGF may enhance the repair of meniscal injuries. 相似文献

In this study, biodegradable poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) nanofibers (PCL-NF), collagen-coated PCL nanofibers (Col-c-PCL), and titanium dioxide-incorporated PCL (TiO2-i-PCL) nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning technique to study the surface and structural compatibility of these scaffolds for skin tisuue engineering. Collagen coating over the PCL nanofibers was done by electrospinning process. Morphology of PCL nanofibers in electrospinning was investigated at different voltages and at different concentrations of PCL. The morphology, interaction between different materials, surface property, and presence of TiO2 were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR), contact angle measurement, energy dispersion X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). MTT assay and cell adhesion study were done to check biocompatibilty of these scaffolds. SEM study confirmed the formation of nanofibers without beads. FTIR proved presence of collagen on PCL scaffold, and contact angle study showed increment of hydrophilicity of Col-c-PCL and TiO2-i-PCL due to collagen coating and incorporation of TiO2, respectively. EDX and XPS studies revealed distribution of entrapped TiO2 at molecular level. MTT assay and cell adhesion study using L929 fibroblast cell line proved viability of cells with attachment of fibroblasts over the scaffold. Thus, in a nutshell, we can conclude from the outcomes of our investigational works that such composite can be considered as a tissue engineered construct for skin wound healing. 相似文献

Effect of scaffold material, construct length and mechanical stimulation on the in vitro stiffness of the engineered tendon construct 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Introducing mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-seeded collagen constructs into load-protected wound sites in the rabbit patellar and Achilles tendons significantly improves their repair outcome compared to natural healing of the unfilled defect. However, these constructs would not be acceptable alternatives for repairing complete tendon ruptures because they lack the initial stiffness at the time of surgery to resist the expected peak in vivo forces thereafter. Since the stiffness of these constructs has also been shown to positively correlate with the stiffness of the subsequent repairs, improving initial stiffness by appropriate selection of in vitro culture conditions would seem crucial. In this study we examined the individual and combined effects of collagen scaffold type, construct length, and mechanical stimulation on in vitro implant stiffness. Two levels each of scaffold material (collagen gel vs. collagen sponge), construct length (short vs. long), and mechanical stimulation (stimulated vs. non-stimulated) were examined. Our results indicate that all three treatment factors influenced construct linear stiffness. Increasing the length of the construct had the greatest effect on the stiffness compared to introducing mechanical stimulation or changing the scaffold material. A significant interaction was also found between length and stimulation. Of the eight groups studied, longer, stimulated, cell-sponge constructs showed the highest in vitro linear stiffness. We now plan in vivo studies to determine if higher stiffness constructs generate higher stiffness repairs 12 weeks after surgery and if in vitro construct stiffness continues to correlate with in vivo repair parameters like linear stiffness. 相似文献

Role of platelet-derived growth factor in wound healing 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a potent activator for cells of mesenchymal origin. PDGF stimulates chemotaxis, proliferation, and new gene expression in monocytes-macrophages and fibroblasts in vitro, cell types considered essential for tissue repair. Therefore, we analyzed the influence of exogenously administered recombinant B chain homodimers of PDGF (PDGF-BB) on two experimental tissue repair paradigms, incisional and excisional wounds. In both types of wounds, as little as 20-200 picomoles applied a single time to wounds significantly augmented the time dependent influx of inflammatory cells and fibroblasts and accelerated provisional extracellular matrix deposition and subsequent collagen formation. In incisional wounds, PDGF-BB augmented wound breaking strength 50-70% over the first 3 weeks; in excisional wounds, PDGF-BB accelerated time to closure by 30%. PDGF-BB exaggerated, but did not alter, the normal course of soft tissue repair, resulting in a significant acceleration of healing. Long term observations established no apparent differences between PDGF-BB treated and non-treated wounds. Thus, the vulnerary effects of PDGF-BB were transient and fully reversible in both wound healing models. Furthermore, analysis of PDGF-treated and non-treated wounds has provided important insights into mechanisms of normal and deficient tissue repair processes. PDGF appears to transduce its signal through wound macrophages and may trigger the induction of positive autocrine feedback loops and synthesis of endogenous wound PDGF and other growth factors, thereby enhancing the cascade of tissue repair processes required for a fully-healed wound. Thus, PDGF and other wound produced polypeptide growth factors may be the critical regulators of extracellular matrix deposition within healing wounds. 相似文献

Using cell‐based engineered skin is an emerging strategy for treating difficult‐to‐heal wounds. To date, much endeavor has been devoted to the fabrication of appropriate scaffolds with suitable biomechanical properties to support cell viability and growth in the microenvironment of a wound. The aim of this research was to assess the impact of adipose tissue‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD‐MSCs) and keratinocytes on gelatin/chitosan/β‐glycerol phosphate (GCGP) nanoscaffold in full‐thickness excisional skin wound healing of rats. For this purpose, AD‐MSCs and keratinocytes were isolated from rats and GCGP nanoscaffolds were electrospun. Through an in vivo study, the percentage of wound closure was assessed on days 7, 14, and 21 after wound induction. Samples were taken from the wound sites in order to evaluate the density of collagen fibers and vessels at 7 and 14 days. Moreover, sampling was done on days 7 and 14 from wound sites to assess the density of collagen fibers and vessels. The wound closure rate was significantly increased in the keratinocytes‐AD‐MSCs‐scaffold (KMS) group compared with other groups. The expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor, collagen type 1, and CD34 were also significantly higher in the KMS group compared with the other groups. These results suggest that the combination of AD‐MSCs and keratinocytes seeded onto GCGP nanoscaffold provides a promising treatment for wound healing. 相似文献

Significantly effective therapies need to be developed for chronic nonhealing diabetic wounds. In this work, the topical transplantation of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) seeded on an acellular dermal matrix (ADM) scaffold is proposed as a novel therapeutic strategy for diabetic cutaneous wound healing. GFP‐labeled MSCs were cocultured with an ADM scaffold that was decellularized from normal mouse skin. These cultures were subsequently transplanted as a whole into the full‐thickness cutaneous wound site in streptozotocin‐induced diabetic mice. Wounds treated with MSC‐ADM demonstrated an increased percentage of wound closure. The treatment of MSC‐ADM also greatly increased angiogenesis and rapidly completed the reepithelialization of newly formed skin on diabetic mice. More importantly, multiphoton microscopy was used for the intravital and dynamic monitoring of collagen type I (Col‐I) fibers synthesis via second harmonic generation imaging. The synthesis of Col‐I fibers during diabetic wound healing is of great significance for revealing wound repair mechanisms. In addition, the activity of GFP‐labeled MSCs during wound healing was simultaneously traced via two‐photon excitation fluorescence imaging. Our research offers a novel advanced nonlinear optical imaging method for monitoring the diabetic wound healing process while the ADM and MSCs interact in situ.

Here, we describe a porous 3-dimensional collagen scaffold material that supports capillary formation in vitro, and promotes vascularization when implanted in vivo. Collagen scaffolds were synthesized from type I bovine collagen and have a uniform pore size of 80 μm. In vitro, scaffolds seeded with primary human microvascular endothelial cells suspended in human fibrin gel formed CD31 positive capillary-like structures with clear lumens. In vivo, after subcutaneous implantation in mice, cell-free collagen scaffolds were vascularized by host neovessels, whilst a gradual degradation of the scaffold material occurred over 8 weeks. Collagen scaffolds, impregnated with human fibrinogen gel, were implanted subcutaneously inside a chamber enclosing the femoral vessels in rats. Angiogenic sprouts from the femoral vessels invaded throughout the scaffolds and these degraded completely after 4 weeks. Vascular volume of the resulting constructs was greater than the vascular volume of constructs from chambers implanted with fibrinogen gel alone (42.7±5.0 μL in collagen scaffold vs 22.5±2.3 μL in fibrinogen gel alone; p<0.05, n = 7). In the same model, collagen scaffolds seeded with human adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) produced greater increases in vascular volume than did cell-free collagen scaffolds (42.9±4.0 μL in collagen scaffold with human ASCs vs 25.7±1.9 μL in collagen scaffold alone; p<0.05, n = 4). In summary, these collagen scaffolds are biocompatible and could be used to grow more robust vascularized tissue engineering grafts with improved the survival of implanted cells. Such scaffolds could also be used as an assay model for studies on angiogenesis, 3-dimensional cell culture, and delivery of growth factors and cells in vivo. 相似文献

Extracellular matrix components play a key role during the angiogenic process for a correct development of blood vessels: fibroblasts are the main cell type involved in the regulation of ECM protein production. In this study we characterize H. medicinalis fibroblasts and demonstrate that they take part to the regulation of angiogenesis that occurs during wound healing process. Massive proliferation and phenotypic modification are two distinctive markers of fibroblast activation. These cells, that are usually responsible for collagen production and function as an energy reservoir, are recruited during wound healing to form a collagen scaffold through a direct mechanic action and through secretion of specific proteoglycans. In addition we show that the activity of fibroblasts is modulated by EGF, a growth factor involved in wound healing in vertebrates. The formation of bundles of collagen fibrils by fibroblasts is fundamental for the development and migration of new blood vessels in lesioned areas during wound repair: administration of lovastatin in explanted leeches affects fibroblasts, damages collagen "scaffold" and indirectly causes the reduction of neo-capillary formation. 相似文献
