Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Exploring the Use of Water-Extracted Flaxseed Hydrocolloids in Three-Dimensional Cell Culture(Mary Ann Liebert, inc, 2024) Yildirim-Semerci, Ozum; Bilginer-Kartal, Rumeysa; Arslan-Yildiz, AhuPlant-derived hydrocolloids offer promising prospects in biomedical applications. Among these, Flaxseed hydrocolloid (FSH) can form a soft, elastic, and biocompatible hydrocolloid with tunable viscosity and superior swelling capacity, making it an attractive scaffold. This study introduces a green extraction method for FSH, employing a single-step aqueous extraction process and fabrication of FSH scaffold. Despite growing interest, the pristine form of FSH has not been investigated for sustainable long-term three-dimensional (3D) cell culture. Here, FSH scaffolds were thoroughly characterized for their morphological, chemical, mechanical, and biological properties. 3D cell culture experiments were conducted using NIH-3T3 mouse fibroblast cells, and cell viability was assessed using live/dead and Alamar Blue assays. High cell viability was sustained for long term compared with 2D cell culture. Cell adhesion and 3D cellular morphology on FSH scaffold for 30 days were monitored by scanning electron microscopy analysis. Also, collagen type-I and F-actin expressions were analyzed by immunostaining after 30 days of culture, resulting in 5- and 4-fold increments of fluorescence intensity, respectively. Results indicate sustained cell viability in the long term and favorable cell-material interaction, demonstrating the potential of FSH as a scaffold. This study emphasizes the importance of the green extraction approach, improving the biocompatibility and functionality of FSH tissue engineering applications. Impact Statement Flaxseed hydrocolloid (FSH) is a promising scaffold for biomedical applications due to its biocompatibility and tunable properties. This study introduces a green extraction method for FSH and evaluates its use in 3D cell culture with NIH-3T3 mouse fibroblast cells. The findings indicate high cell viability and enhanced cell-material interactions over 30 days, highlighting the potential of FSH for tissue engineering.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 11Arabinoxylan-Based Psyllium Seed Hydrocolloid: Single-Step Aqueous Extraction and Use in Tissue Engineering(Elsevier B.V., 2024) Yildirim-Semerci,Ö.; Bilginer-Kartal,R.; Arslan-Yildiz,A.Biomacromolecules derived from natural sources offer superior biocompatibility, biodegradability, and water-holding capacity, which make them promising scaffolds for tissue engineering. Psyllium seed has gained attention in biomedical applications recently due to its gel-forming ability, which is provided by its polysaccharide-rich content consisting mostly of arabinoxylan. This study focuses on the extraction and gelation of Psyllium seed hydrocolloid (PSH) in a single-step water-based protocol, and scaffold fabrication using freeze-drying method. After characterization of the scaffold, including morphological, mechanical, swelling, and protein adsorption analyses, 3D cell culture studies were done using NIH-3 T3 fibroblast cells on PSH scaffold, and cell viability was assessed using Live/Dead and Alamar Blue assays. Starting from day 1, high cell viability was obtained, and it reached 90 % at the end of 15-day culture period. Cellular morphology on PSH scaffold was monitored via SEM analysis; cellular aggregates then spheroid formation were observed throughout the study. Collagen Type-I and F-actin expressions were followed by immunostaining revealing a 9- and 10-fold increase during long-term culture. Overall, a single-step and non-toxic protocol was developed for extraction and gelation of PSH. Obtained results unveiled that PSH scaffold provided a favorable 3D microenvironment for cells, holding promise for further tissue engineering applications. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.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.

Here, we present a facile methodology based on magnetic levitation (MagLev) to fabricate 3D cellular structures rapidly and easily in high-volume and low magnetic field. In this study, 3D cellular structures were fabricated using magnetic levitation directed assembly where cells are suspended and self-assembled by contactless magnetic manipulation in the presence of a paramagnetic agent. The effect of cell seeding density, culture time, and paramagnetic agent concentration on the formation of 3D cellular structures was evaluated for NIH/3T3 mouse fibroblast cells. In addition, magnetic levitation guided cellular assembly and 3D tumor spheroid formation was examined for five different cancer cell lines: MCF7 (human epithelial breast adenocarcinoma), MDA-MB-231 (human epithelial breast adenocarcinoma), SHSYSY (human bone-marrow neuroblastoma), PC-12 (rat adrenal gland pheochromocytoma), and HeLa (human epithelial cervix adenocarcinoma). Moreover, formation of a 3D coculture model was successfully observed by using MDA-MB-231 dsRED and MDA-MB-231 GFP cells. Taken together, these results indicate that the developed MagLev setup provides an easy and efficient way to fabricate 3D cellular structures and may be a feasible alternative to conventional methodologies for cellular/multicellular studies.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 36Biomimetic Hybrid Scaffold Consisting of Co-Electrospun Collagen and Pllcl for 3d Cell Culture(Elsevier Ltd., 2019) Türker, Esra; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, AhuElectrospun collagen is commonly used as a scaffold in tissue engineering applications since it mimics the content and morphology of native extracellular matrix (ECM) well. 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.
