The Role of Biodegradable Engineered Nanofiber Scaffolds Seeded with Hair Follicle Stem Cells for Tissue Engineering
Background: The aim of this study was to fabricate the poly caprolactone (PCL) aligned nanofiber scaffold and to evaluate the survival, adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of rat hair follicle stem cells (HFSC) in the graft material using electrospun PCL nanofiber scaffold for tissue engineering applications. Methods: The bulge region of rat whisker was isolated and cultured in DMEM: n...
متن کاملProperties and Biocompatibility of Chitosan and Silk Fibroin Blend Films for Application in Skin Tissue Engineering
Chitosan/silk fibroin (CS/SF) blend films were prepared and evaluated for feasibility of using the films as biomaterial for skin tissue engineering application. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry analysis indicated chemical interaction between chitosan and fibroin. Chitosan enhanced β-sheet conformation of fibroin and resulted in shifting of thermal de...
متن کاملBiodegradable Polymers for Bone Tissue Engineering
The destruction of bone tissue due to disease (osteonecrosis, tumors, osteoporosis) or inefficient healing posttraumatic injury is a problem affecting the world population. The repair of small defect may be mediated by the osteoblast and osteoclast activity which ensures a balanced control of bone resorption and formation, allowing the bone repair, renewal, and growth. However, when the defect ...
متن کاملBiodegradable synthetic polymers for tissue engineering.
This paper reviews biodegradable synthetic polymers focusing on their potential in tissue engineering applications. The major classes of polymers are briefly discussed with regard to synthesis, properties and biodegradability, and known degradation modes and products are indicated based on studies reported in the literature. A vast majority of biodegradable polymers studied belongs to the polye...
متن کاملInjectable, Biodegradable Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering Applications
Hydrogels have many different applications in the field of regenerative medicine. Biodegradable, injectable hydrogels could be utilized as delivery systems, cell carriers, and scaffolds for tissue engineering. Injectable hydrogels are an appealing scaffold because they are structurally similar to the extracellular matrix of many tissues, can often be processed under relatively mild conditions, ...
