Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate the possibility of incorporating a natural antioxidant biomolecule into polymeric porous scaffolds. To this end, Poly-l-Lactic Acid (PLLA) scaffolds were produced using the Thermally Induced Phase Separation (TIPS) technique and additivated with different amounts of rosmarinic acid (RA). The scaffolds, with a diameter of 4 mm and a thickness of 2 mm, were characterized with a multi-analytical approach. Specifically, Scanning Electron Microscopy analyses demonstrated the presence of an interconnected porous network, characterized by a layer of RA at the level of the pore's surfaces. Moreover, the presence of RA biomolecules increased the hydrophilic nature of the sample, as evidenced by the decrease in the contact angle with water from 128° to 76°. The structure of PLLA and PLLA containing RA molecules has been investigated through DSC and XRD analyses, and the obtained results suggest that the crystallinity decreases when increasing the RA content. This approach is cost-effective, and it can be customized with different biomolecules, offering the possibility of producing porous polymeric structures containing antioxidant molecules. These scaffolds meet the requirements of tissue engineering and could offer a potential solution to reduce inflammation associated with scaffold implantation, thus improving tissue regeneration.

摘要

本研究旨在证明将天然抗氧化生物分子纳入聚合物多孔支架的可能性。为此,采用热致相分离(TIPS)技术制备了聚-L-乳酸(PLLA)支架,并用不同量的迷迭香酸(RA)进行添加。对直径为4毫米、厚度为2毫米的支架采用多分析方法进行表征。具体而言,扫描电子显微镜分析表明存在相互连接的多孔网络,其特征在于孔表面存在一层RA。此外,RA生物分子的存在增加了样品的亲水性,与水的接触角从128°降至76°即可证明。通过DSC和XRD分析研究了PLLA和含RA分子的PLLA的结构,所得结果表明,随着RA含量的增加,结晶度降低。这种方法具有成本效益,并且可以用不同的生物分子进行定制,提供了生产含有抗氧化分子的多孔聚合物结构的可能性。这些支架满足组织工程的要求,并可能提供一种潜在的解决方案,以减少与支架植入相关的炎症,从而改善组织再生。
