Book Part Citation - Scopus: 3Tissue Engineering Applications of Marine-Based Materials(Springer, 2022) Polat, Hürriyet; Zeybek, Nuket; Polat, MehmetTissue 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.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 23Bioactive 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, HasanBiobased 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.Article Citation - WoS: 43Citation - Scopus: 47Bioactive Diatomite and Poss Silica Cage Reinforced Chitosan/Na-carboxymethyl Cellulose Polyelectrolyte Scaffolds for Hard Tissue Regeneration(Elsevier, 2019) Tamburacı, Sedef; Kimna, Ceren; Tıhmınlıoğlu, FundaRecently, natural polymers are reinforced with silica particles for hard tissue engineering applications to induce bone regeneration. In this study, as two novel bioactive agents, effects of diatomite and polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) on chitosan (CS)/Na-carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC) polymer blend scaffolds are examined. In addition, the effect of silica reinforcements was compared with Si-substituted nano-hydroxyapatite (Si-Hap) particles. The morphology, physical and chemical structures of the scaffolds were characterized with SEM, liquid displacement, FT-IR, mechanical analysis, swelling and degradation studies. The particle size and the crystal structure of diatomite, POSS and Si-Hap particles were determined with DLS and XRD analyses. In vitro studies were performed to figure out the cytotoxicity, proliferation, ALP activity, osteocalcin production and biomineralization to demonstrate the promising use of natural silica particles in bone regeneration. Freeze-dried scaffolds showed 190-307 mu m pore size range and 61-70% porosity. Both inorganic reinforcements increased the mechanical strength, enhanced the water uptake capacity and fastened the degradation rate. The nanocomposite scaffolds did not show any cytotoxic effect and enhanced the surface mineralization in osteogenic medium. Thus, diatomite and POSS cage structures can be potential reinforcements for nanocomposite design in hard tissue engineering applications.Article Citation - WoS: 46Citation - Scopus: 53Chitosan-Hybrid Poss Nanocomposites for Bone Regeneration: the Effect of Poss Nanocage on Surface, Morphology, Structure and in Vitro Bioactivity(Elsevier, 2020) Tamburacı, Sedef; Tıhmınlıoğlu, FundaPOSS, regarded as the smallest silica particle, is widely used as nanofiller in polymer systems. POSS-based nanocomposites are deduced as novel materials having potency for biomedical applications owing to the enhanced biocompatibility and physicochemical characteristics. The aim of this work was to integrate the beneficial features of chitosan (CS) and OctaTMA-POSS nanoparticle to design nanocomposite for bone tissue regeneration. The nanocomposite scaffolds were fabricated by freeze-drying. The effects of POSS incorporation on morphology and structure of CS matrix were examined. Bioactivity and osteogenic effects of the POSS nanoparticles were investigated with cytocompatibility, cell proliferation, alkaline phosphatase activity, osteocalcin production and biomineralization assays. PUSS incorporation altered the surface morphology by increasing surface roughness. Nanocomposite scaffolds with 82-90% porosity exhibited an increase in compression modulus of scaffolds (78-107 kPa) compared to control CS group (56 kPa). Results indicated that CS-POSS scaffolds were found cytocompatible with 3T3, MG-63 and Saos-2 cell lines. POSS incorporation showed promising effects on osteoblast adhesion and proliferation as well as increasing ALP activity, octeocalcin secretion and biomineralization of cells. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.
