Evaluation of the chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells on hybrid biomimetic scaffolds

Abstract: Hybrid materials are widely and promisingly used as scaffolds in cartilage tissue remodeling. In this study, hybrid scaffolds consist of polycaprolactone (PCL), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with/without gelatin (GEL) to mimic natural cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) were investigated. Scaffolds were prepared by freeze drying and characterized by scanning electron microscopy and compressive mechanical testing. Biological assays of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) cultures, 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenylt… Show more

“…For the reference purpose, cells were seeded into a fresh culture medium (control) with same seeding condition. The percentage (%) viability was estimated as per the following formula: Viability %=(ODs/ODc)×100 where OD s and OD c are the average optical densities of the sample and the control, respectively . Each assay was performed four times.…”

“…[160][161][162][163][164] However, there appears to have some limitations in achieving identical properties of native cartilages. Additionally, generation of functional cartilage by MSCs has been found to be troublesome, as it depends on the viable cell source for extracellular cartilage matrix production, leading to high quality cartilage regeneration.…”
