Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 30Fabrication of 3d Printed Poly(lactic Acid) Strut and Wet-Electrospun Cellulose Nano Fiber Reinforced Chitosan-Collagen Hydrogel Composite Scaffolds for Meniscus Tissue Engineering(SAGE Publications, 2022) Güneş, Oylum Çolpankan; Kara, Aylin; Baysan, Gizem; Hüsemoğlu, Reşit Buğra; Akokay, Pınar; Ziylan Albayrak, Aylin; Ergür, Bekir Uğur; Havitçioğlu, HasanThe main goal of the study was to produce chitosan-collagen hydrogel composite scaffolds consisting of 3D printed poly(lactic acid) (PLA) strut and nanofibrous cellulose for meniscus cartilage tissue engineering. For this purpose, first PLA strut containing microchannels was incorporated into cellulose nanofibers and then they were embedded into chitosan-collagen matrix to obtain micro- and nano-sized topographical features for better cellular activities as well as mechanical properties. All the hydrogel composite scaffolds produced by using three different concentrations of genipin (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5%) had an interconnected microporous structure with a swelling ratio of about 400% and water content values between 77 and 83% which is similar to native cartilage extracellular matrix. The compressive strength of all the hydrogel composite scaffolds was found to be similar (∼32 kPa) and suitable for cartilage tissue engineering applications. Besides, the hydrogel composite scaffold comprising 0.3% (w/v) genipin had the highest tan δ value (0.044) at a frequency of 1 Hz which is around the walking frequency of a person. According to the in vitro analysis, this hydrogel composite scaffold did not show any cytotoxic effect on the rabbit mesenchymal stem cells and enabled cells to attach, proliferate and also migrate through the inner area of the scaffold. In conclusion, the produced hydrogel composite scaffold holds great promise for meniscus tissue engineering.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 27Osteogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Random and Aligned Pan/Ppy Nanofibrous Scaffolds(SAGE Publications, 2019) Selamet, Yusuf; İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Baskan, Öznur; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Meşe, Gülistan; Özçivici, EnginThe aim of this study was to develop random and aligned polyacrilonitrile (PAN)/polypyrrole (PPy) nanofibrous scaffolds by electrospinning technique for osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. Nanofibers were fabricated successfully as straight, smooth, and free from bead formation. The average diameter of random and aligned nanofibers was 268(+/- 49) nm and 225(+/- 72) nm, respectively. Alignment process increased the tensile strength of nanofibers 3.9-fold, while the tensile strain of nanofibers decreased by 78%. PAN/PPy nanofibers were hydrophilic with the contact angle value of about 32 degrees and alignment did not affect the contact angle value. Random and aligned PAN/PPy nanofibers were investigated as a scaffold material for osteogenic differentiation of D1 ORL UVA mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Cells were able to attach and grow on nanofibers confirmed by cell viability results. Stem cells that were cultured with osteogenic induction were able to mineralize on electrospun nanofibers based on alizarin red and Von Kossa dye staining. For aligned PPy nanofibers, mineralization occurred in the fiber alignment direction. Consequently, PAN/PPy nanofibrous mats in both random and aligned forms would be potential candidates for bone tissue engineering.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 17Fish Scale/Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) Nanofibrous Composite Scaffolds for Bone Regeneration(SAGE Publications, 2020) Kara, Aylin; Güneş, Oylum C.; Albayrak, Aylin Z.; Bilici, Gökçen; Erbil, Güven; Havitcioğlu, HasanThe aim of this study was to produce three-dimensional, nanofibrous fish scale/poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) composite scaffolds as bone filling materials. This is the first report wherein fish scales were used within a nanofibrous matrix for bone regeneration. Composite scaffolds with a cotton wool-like structure (fiber diameter: 560 +/- 64 nm; porosity: 82%) were obtained by incorporating chopped fish scales into wet-electrospun poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) nanofibers and freeze-drying. The addition of the fish scales improved the mechanical properties, biomineralization tendency, cell viability, alkaline phosphatase activity, and type I collagen production. Consequently, produced composite scaffolds would be regarded to have the therapeutic capacity in bone tissue damages.
