Article Citation - WoS: 1From Chemistry to Clinic: Polysaccharide-Bioceramic Composites for Tissue Engineering Applications(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2025) Yakubogullari, Nilgun; Yilmaz-Dagdeviren, Hilal Deniz; Arslan-Yildiz, AhuComposite scaffolds combining polysaccharides and bioceramics represent next-generation scaffolds extensively investigated in tissue engineering (TE) and biomedical applications. Polysaccharides such as chitosan, hyaluronic acid, and pectin mimic the extracellular matrix components with their tunable physicochemical properties, enabling a favorable microenvironment for cell adhesion, proliferation, and cell-matrix interactions. On the other hand, bioceramics, including calcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite, and bioactive glasses, enhance the mechanical properties of the material and offer structural integrity and osteoconductive properties. While they have generally been preferred to be used in bone TE and dental applications, various studies have also demonstrated their potential in cartilage regeneration, wound healing, and broader biomedical applications. Recent advancements in material design and scaffold fabrication techniques, particularly 3D printing and electrospinning, have provided precise engineering of materials and fabrication of scaffolds for desirable mechanical properties and biological performance. These innovations foster the development of patient-specific scaffolds, thereby paving the way for applications in personalized medicine. This review critically summarizes alternative polysaccharides, bioceramics, and composite materials used in TE and biomedical applications. It also highlights advanced fabrication strategies and finally explores the translational potential of these biocomposites. By integrating emerging technologies, this review aims to provide alternative and sustainable materials for the development of next-generation scaffolds that meet clinical needs.Impact Statement This study introduces polysaccharide-bioceramic composites with enhanced mechanical and biological properties for tissue engineering. Beyond bone and dental repair, their applications increasingly extend to wound healing, cartilage, cardiac, and muscle regeneration with drug delivery, angiogenesis, and neurogenesis. By mimicking the native extracellular matrix, these composites support cell growth and tissue regeneration, offering a versatile platform for advanced regenerative therapies.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Biopatterning of 3d Cellular Model by Contactless Magnetic Manipulation for Cardiotoxicity Screening(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2023) Önbaş, Rabia; Arslan Yıldız, AhuPatterning cells to create three-dimensional (3D) cell culture models by magnetic manipulation is a promising technique, which is rapid, simple, and cost-effective. This study introduces a new biopatterning approach based on magnetic manipulation of cells with a bioink that consists alginate, cells, and magnetic nanoparticles. Plackett-Burman and Box-Behnken experimental design models were used to optimize bioink formulation where NIH-3T3 cells were utilized as a model cell line. The patterning capability was confirmed by light microscopy through 7 days culture time. Then, biopatterned 3D cardiac structures were formed using H9c2 cardiomyocyte cells. Cellular and extracellular components, F-actin and collagen Type I, and cardiac-specific biomarkers, Troponin T and MYH6, of biopatterned 3D cardiac structures were observed successfully. Moreover, Doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity was investigated for developed 3D model, and IC50 value was calculated as 8.1 μM for biopatterned 3D cardiac structures, which showed higher resistance against DOX-exposure compared to conventional two-dimensional cell culture. Hereby, developed biopatterning methodology proved to be a simple and rapid approach to fabricate 3D cardiac models, especially for drug screening applications.
