Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 9Using Loofah Reinforced Chitosan-Collagen Hydrogel Based Scaffolds In-Vitro and In-Vivo; Healing in Cartilage Tissue Defects(Elsevier B.V., 2023) Baysan, G.; Gunes, O.C.; Turemis, C.; Akokay, Yilmaz, P.; Husemoglu, R.B.; Kara, Ozenler, A.; Perpelek, M.The herein article aims to report a new scaffold design as a loofah-reinforced chitosan-collagen hydrogel composite scaffold with three different cross-linker concentrations (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt. /v%). From the analyses, the scaffold crosslinked with 0.5% genipin; collagen-chitosan hydrogel scaffold reinforced with loofah (L-CCol5) was found to be suitable for further in vitro and in vivo studies due to its interconnected porous structure, water content (∼ 97%) and tan delta (0.221 at 1 Hz) values comparable to that of cartilage tissue. In vitro analyses depicted that the L-CCol5 scaffold supported rabbit mesenchymal stem cells (rMSCs) adhesion and proliferation with its non-cytotoxic feature. Moreover, in vivo cartilage healing studies were performed using New Zealand male rabbits in three groups: empty control, cell-free scaffold, and rMSCs-laden scaffold. The elastic moduli of these three groups were 0.69, 0.90, and 1.18 MPa, respectively. Besides, microcomputer tomography (MicroCT) scannings supported the in vivo biomechanical analyses as cell-laden scaffolds showed better osteochondral healing. It can be concluded that the L-CCol5 scaffold could be a promising construct in osteochondral tissue engineering applications. The findings revealed that osteochondral remodeling precedes articular cartilage, providing insight into tailored therapeutic approaches, disease progress, and treatment consequences. © 2023 Acta Materialia Inc.Article Citation - WoS: 79Citation - Scopus: 93Magnetic Force-Based Micro Fluidic Techniques for Cellular and Tissue Bioengineering(Frontiers Media S.A., 2018) Yaman, Sena; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Özçivici, Engin; Tekin, Hüseyin CumhurLive cell manipulation is an important biotechnological tool for cellular and tissue level bioengineering applications due to its capacity for guiding cells for separation, isolation, concentration, and patterning. Magnetic force-based cell manipulation methods offer several advantages, such as low adverse effects on cell viability and low interference with the cellular environment. Furthermore, magnetic-based operations can be readily combined with microfluidic principles by precisely allowing control over the spatiotemporal distribution of physical and chemical factors for cell manipulation. In this review, we present recent applications of magnetic force-based cell manipulation in cellular and tissue bioengineering with an emphasis on applications with microfluidic components. Following an introduction of the theoretical background of magnetic manipulation, components of magnetic force-based cell manipulation systems are described. Thereafter, different applications, including separation of certain cell fractions, enrichment of rare cells, and guidance of cells into specific macro- or micro-arrangements to mimic natural cell organization and function, are explained. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and limitations of magnetic cell manipulation technologies in microfluidic devices with an outlook on future developments in the field.
