Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) is one of the most commonly used synthetic materials for regenerative medicine, and silk fibroin (SF) is a natural protein with excellent biocompatibility. Combination of PLLA and SF in a proper proportion by electrospinning may generate composite nanofibers that could meet the requirements of scaffolding in bone tissue engineering. The application of PLLA/SF nanofibrous scaffold for osteogenesis is well established in vitro and in vivo. However, PLLA/SF nanofibrous scaffold does not have an ideal ability to promote cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Extracellular matrix (ECM) plays a critical role in modulating cellular behavior. However, the role of combination of natural ECM with nanofibrous scaffold in regulating osteogenic differentiation is unclear. In this study, we aimed to develop a novel composite PLLA/SF nanofibrous scaffold coated with osteoblast-derived extracellular matrix (O-ECM/PLLA/SF) and analyze the effects of the modified scaffold on osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. The surface structural features and compositions of the O-ECM/PLLA/SF scaffold were characterized by SEM and immunofluorescence staining. The capacities of the O-ECM/PLLA/SF scaffold to induce osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs were investigated by alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alizarin red staining (ARS). The results showed BMSCs cultured on O-ECM/PLLA/SF scaffold significantly increased osteogenic differentiation compared with cells cultured individually on a scaffold or O-ECM. Collectively, these findings indicate that O-ECM-coated nanofibrous scaffold can be a promising strategy for osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, opening a new possibility of utilizing composite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering.
聚-L-乳酸(PLLA)是再生医学中最常用的合成材料之一,而丝素蛋白(SF)是一种具有优异生物相容性的天然蛋白质。通过静电纺丝将PLLA和SF以适当比例混合,可能会产生符合骨组织工程支架要求的复合纳米纤维。PLLA/SF纳米纤维支架在成骨方面的应用在体外和体内均已得到充分证实。然而,PLLA/SF纳米纤维支架促进细胞黏附、增殖和分化的能力并不理想。细胞外基质(ECM)在调节细胞行为中起着关键作用。然而,天然ECM与纳米纤维支架的组合在调节成骨分化中的作用尚不清楚。在本研究中,我们旨在开发一种新型的涂有成骨细胞衍生细胞外基质的复合PLLA/SF纳米纤维支架(O-ECM/PLLA/SF),并分析这种改性支架对骨髓间充质干细胞(BMSCs)成骨分化的影响。通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)和免疫荧光染色对O-ECM/PLLA/SF支架的表面结构特征和成分进行了表征。通过碱性磷酸酶(ALP)和茜素红染色(ARS)研究了O-ECM/PLLA/SF支架诱导BMSCs成骨分化的能力。结果表明,与单独在支架或O-ECM上培养的细胞相比,在O-ECM/PLLA/SF支架上培养的BMSCs的成骨分化显著增加。总的来说,这些发现表明,涂有O-ECM的纳米纤维支架可能是一种促进BMSCs成骨分化的有前景的策略,为骨组织工程中利用复合支架开辟了新的可能性。
