Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Fabrication of Gelatin-Polyester Based Biocomposite Scaffold Via One-Step Functionalization of Melt Electrowritten Polymer Blends in Aqueous Phase(Elsevier B.V., 2024) Köksal,B.; Kartal,R.B.; Günay,U.S.; Durmaz,H.; Yildiz,A.A.; Yildiz,Ü.H.The rapid manufacturing of biocomposite scaffold made of saturated-Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and unsaturated Polyester (PE) blends with gelatin and modified gelatin (NCO-Gel) is demonstrated. Polyester blend-based scaffold are fabricated with and without applying potential in the melt electrowriting system. Notably, the applied potential induces phase separation between PCL and PE and drives the formation of PE rich spots at the interface of electrowritten fibers. The objective of the current study is to control the phase separation between saturated and unsaturated polyesters occurring in the melt electro-writing process and utilization of this phenomenon to improve efficiency of biofunctionalization at the interface of scaffold via Aza-Michael addition reaction. Electron-deficient triple bonds of PE spots on the fibers exhibit good potential for the biofunctionalization via the aza-Michael addition reaction. PE spots are found to be pronounced in which blend compositions are PCL-PE as 90:10 and 75:25 %. The biofunctionalization of scaffold is monitored through C[sbnd]N bond formation appeared at 400 eV via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and XPS chemical mapping. The described biofunctionalization methodology suggest avoiding use of multi-step chemical modification on additive manufacturing products and thereby rapid prototyping of functional polymer blend based scaffolds with enhanced biocompatibility and preserved mechanical properties. Additionally one-step additive manufacturing method eliminates side effects of toxic solvents and long modification steps during scaffold fabrication. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.Review Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 16Engineering Periodontal Tissue Interfaces Using Multiphasic Scaffolds and Membranes for Guided Bone and Tissue Regeneration(Elsevier, 2024) Özkendir, Özge; Karaca, İlayda; Çullu, Selin; Yaşar, Hüsniye Nur,; Erdoğan, Oğulcan; Dikici, Serkan; Dikici, Betul AldemirPeriodontal diseases are one of the greatest healthcare burdens worldwide. The periodontal tissue compartment is an anatomical tissue interface formed from the periodontal ligament, gingiva, cementum, and bone. This multifaceted composition makes tissue engineering strategies challenging to develop due to the interface of hard and soft tissues requiring multiphase scaffolds to recreate the native tissue architecture. Multilayer constructs can better mimic tissue interfaces due to the individually tuneable layers. They have different characteristics in each layer, with modulation of mechanical properties, material type, porosity, pore size, morphology, degradation properties, and drug-releasing profile all possible. The greatest challenge of multilayer constructs is to mechanically integrate consecutive layers to avoid delamination, especially when using multiple manufacturing processes. Here, we review the development of multilayer scaffolds that aim to recapitulate native periodontal tissue interfaces in terms of physical, chemical, and biological characteristics. Important properties of multiphasic biodegradable scaffolds are highlighted and summarised, with design requirements, biomaterials, and fabrication methods, as well as post-treatment and drug/growth factor incorporation discussed.Article Citation - WoS: 43Citation - Scopus: 46Glucuronoxylan-Based Quince Seed Hydrogel: a Promising Scaffold for Tissue Engineering Applications(Elsevier, 2021) Güzelgülgen, Meltem; Özkendir İnanç, Dilce; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, AhuNatural gums and mucilages from plant-derived polysaccharides are potential candidates for a tissue-engineering scaffold by their ability of gelation and biocompatibility. Herein, we utilized Glucuron-oxylanbased quince seed hydrogel (QSH) as a scaffold for tissue engineering applications. Optimization of QSH gelation was conducted by varying QSH and crosslinker glutaraldehyde (GTA) concentrations. Structural characterization of QSH was done by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (MR). Furthermore, morphological and mechanical investigation of QSH was performed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The protein adsorption test revealed the suitability of QSH for cell attachment. Biocompatibility of QSH was confirmed by culturing NIH-3T3 mouse fibroblast cells on it. Cell viability and proliferation results revealed that optimum parameters for cell viability were 2 mg mi(-1)of QSH and 0.03 M GTA. SEM and DAPI staining results indicated the formation of spheroids with a diameter of approximately 300 pm. Furthermore, formation of extracellular matrix (ECM) microenvironment was confirmed with the Collagen Type-I staining. Here, it was demonstrated that the fabricated QSH is a promising scaffold for 3D cell culture and tissue engineering applications provided by its highly porous structure, remarkable swelling capacity and high biocompatibility.

This report describes "toxic solvent free" fabrication of electrospun hybrid scaffold consisting of Collagen (Col) and Poly(L-lactide-co-epsilon-caprolactone) (PLLCL) for three-dimensional (3D) cell culture. Biomimetic hybrid scaffold was fabricated via co-spinning approach where simultaneous electrospinning of PLLCL and Collagen was mediated by polymer sacrificing agent Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Acidified aqueous solution of PVP was used to solubilize collagen without using toxic solvents for electrospinning, and then PVP was readily removed by rinsing in water. Mechanical characterizations, protein adsorption, as well as biodegradation analysis have been conducted to investigate feasibility of biomimetic hybrid scaffold for 3D cell culture applications. Electrospun biomimetic hybrid scaffold, which has 3D-network structure with 300-450 nm fiber diameters, was found to be maximizing cell adhesion through assisting NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblast cells. 3D cell culture studies confirmed that presence of collagen in biomimetic hybrid scaffold have created a major impact on cell proliferation compared to conventional 2D systems on long-term, also cell viability increased with the increasing amount of collagen.
