    The authors regret that some errors were identified in 'figures 12 and 13' on pages 14 and 15, in the published manuscript concerning fluorescence microscopy images of Saos-2 and SW1353 cells on scaffolds for 1 and 3 d of incubation. The fluorescence images in figures 12 and 13 were mistakenly used as duplicated due to the inadvertently mislabeling during the processing of files and integrating them into the final figures. Intensity data regarding corrected fluorescence images were also measured and corrected. The revised figures (figures 12 and 13) and their captions appear below. The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. (Figure Presented). © 2023 IOP Publishing Ltd.

    Using Loofah Reinforced Chitosan-Collagen Hydrogel Based Scaffolds In-Vitro and In-Vivo; Healing in Cartilage Tissue Defects
    (Elsevier B.V., 2023) Baysan, G.; Kara, Aylin; Gunes, O.C.; Turemis, C.; Akokay, Yilmaz, P.; Husemoglu, R.B.; Kara, Ozenler, A.; Perpelek, M.; 03.01. Department of Bioengineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    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.
