    Tissue Engineering Applications of Marine-Based Materials
    (Springer, 2022) Polat, Hürriyet; Zeybek, Nuket; Polat, Mehmet
    Tissue engineering is a promising approach in replacing or improving tissues lost or has become nonviable due to disease or trauma by the use of scaffold materials by combining engineering and biochemical/physicochemical methods. Its purpose is to create suitable matrices that support cell differentiation and proliferation toward the formation of new and functional tissue. Marine-based natural compounds are potential scaffold feedstock material in tissue engineering owing to their biocompatibility and biodegradability while providing excellent biochemical/physicochemical properties. Numerous application areas and various fabrication routes techniques described in the literature attest to the importance of these materials in tissue regeneration. This review has been carried to merge the information from a large number of studies on the marine-based scaffold materials in tissue engineering into a coherent summary. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2022.

    Bioactive Snail Mucus-Slime Extract Loaded Chitosan Scaffolds for Hard Tissue Regeneration: the Effect of Mucoadhesive and Antibacterial Extracts on Physical Characteristics and Bioactivity of Chitosan Matrix
    (IOP Publishing, 2021) Perpelek, Merve; Tamburacı, Sedef; Aydemir, Selma; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Baykara, Başak; Karakaşlı, Ahmet; Havıtçıoğlu, Hasan
    Biobased extracts comprise various bioactive components and they are widely used in tissue engineering applications to increase bioactivity as well as physical characteristics of biomaterials. Among animal sources, garden snail Helix aspersa has come into prominence with its antibacterial and regenerative extracts and show potential in tissue regeneration. Thus, in this study, bioactive H. aspersa extracts (slime, mucus) were loaded in chitosan (CHI) matrix to fabricate porous scaffolds for hard tissue regeneration. Physical, chemical properties, antimicrobial activity was determined as well as in vitro bioactivity for bone and cartilage regeneration. Mucus and slime incorporation enhanced mechanical properties and biodegradation rate of CHI matrix. Scanning electron microscopy images showed that the average pore size of the scaffolds decreased with higher extract content. Mucus and slime extracts showed antimicrobial effect on two bacterial strains. In vitro cytotoxicity, osteogenic and chondrogenic activity of the scaffolds were evaluated with Saos-2 and SW1353 cell lines in terms of Alkaline phosphatase activity, biomineralization, GAG, COMP and hydroxyproline content. Cell viability results showed that extracts had a proliferative effect on Saos-2 and SW1353 cells when compared to the control group. Mucus and slime extract loading increased osteogenic and chondrogenic activity. Thus, the bioactive extract loaded CHI scaffolds showed potential for bone and cartilage regeneration with enhanced physical properties and in vitro bioactivity.
