Biodegradable photo-crosslinked alginate nanofibre scaffolds with tuneable physical properties, cell adhesivity and growth factor release.
Nanofibrous scaffolds are of interest in tissue engineering due to their high surface area to volume ratio, interconnected pores, and architectural similarity to the native extracellular matrix. Our laboratory recently developed a biodegradable, photo-crosslinkable alginate biopolymer. Here, we show the capacity of the material to be electrospun into a nanofibrous matrix, and the ability to enh...
متن کاملHeparin-immobilized biodegradable scaffolds for local and sustained release of angiogenic growth factor.
Heparin-immobilized porous biodegradable scaffolds were fabricated to release basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in a sustained manner. Heparin was covalently conjugated onto the surface of macroporous PLGA scaffolds fabricated by a gas-foaming/salt-leaching method. Sustained release of bFGF was successfully achieved for over 20 days due to high affinity of bFGF onto the immobilized heparin....

متن کاملTreatment of Skin Avulsion Injuries with Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor
This report describes favorable outcomes in 9 patients with skin avulsion injuries of the extremities who underwent full-thickness skin grafting and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) application. Following removal of contaminated subcutaneous fat tissue on the inside of skin, the avulsed skin was processed into a full-thickness skin graft, with as much of the skin used as possible irrespect...
متن کاملSkeletal effects of systemic treatment with basic fibroblast growth factor.
Systemic treatment of intact and ovariectomized rats with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) has strong bone anabolic effects. These effects include marked increases in osteoblast number and activity along cancellous and endocortical bone surfaces, which result in accumulation of osteoid and augmentation of cancellous and cortical bone mass after only short-term treatment with bFGF. Osteocla...
