This study investigates bioelectric stimulation's role in tissue regeneration by enhancing the piezoelectric properties of tissue-engineered grafts using annealed poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) scaffolds. Annealing at temperatures of 80°C, 100°C, 120°C, and 140°C is assessed for its impact on material properties and physiological utility. Analytical techniques such as Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) reveal increased crystallinity with higher annealing temperatures, peaking in β-phase content and crystallinity at 140°C. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) shows that 140°C annealed scaffolds have enhanced lamellar structures, increased porosity, and maximum piezoelectric response. Mechanical tests indicate that 140°C annealing improved elastic modulus, tensile strength, and substrate stiffness, aligning these properties with physiological soft tissues. In vitro assessments in Schwann cells demonstrate favorable responses, with increased cell proliferation, contraction, and extracellular matrix attachment. Additionally, genes linked to extracellular matrix production, vascularization, and calcium signaling are upregulated. The foreign body response in C57BL/6 mice, evaluated through Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) and Picrosirius Red staining, shows no differences between scaffold groups, supporting the potential for future functional evaluation of the annealed group in tissue repair.
本研究通过使用退火聚偏二氟乙烯 - 三氟乙烯(PVDF-TrFE)支架增强组织工程移植物的压电性能,来研究生物电刺激在组织再生中的作用。评估了在80°C、100°C、120°C和140°C温度下退火对材料性能和生理效用的影响。差示扫描量热法(DSC)、傅里叶变换红外光谱法(FTIR)和X射线衍射(XRD)等分析技术表明,随着退火温度升高,结晶度增加,在140°C时β相含量和结晶度达到峰值。扫描电子显微镜(SEM)显示,140°C退火的支架具有增强的层状结构、增加的孔隙率和最大的压电响应。力学测试表明,140°C退火提高了弹性模量、拉伸强度和基底刚度,使这些性能与生理软组织相匹配。在雪旺细胞中的体外评估显示出良好的反应,细胞增殖、收缩和细胞外基质附着增加。此外,与细胞外基质产生、血管生成和钙信号相关的基因上调。通过苏木精和伊红(H&E)以及天狼星红染色评估C57BL/6小鼠的异物反应,结果显示支架组之间没有差异,这支持了未来对退火组进行组织修复功能评估的潜力。
