Abstract
Tissue engineering is a new technique to help damaged cartilage treatment using cells and scaffolds. In this study we tried to evaluate electrospun scaffolds composed of gelatin/glycosaminoglycan (G/GAG) blend nanofibers in chondrogenesis of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs). Scaffolds were fabricated by electrospinning technique with different concentration of glycosaminoglycan (0, 5, 10, and 15) in gelatin matrix. BMMSCs were cultured on the scaffolds for chondrogenesis process. MTT assay was done for scaffold's biocompatibility and cells viability evaluation. Alcian blue staining was carried out to determine the release of GAG and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was done for expression of COL2A1 and also immunocytochemistry assay were used to confirm expression of type II collagen. Scaffold with 15 GAG showed better result for biocompatibility (p =0.02). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs showed that MSCs have good attachment to the scaffolds. Alcian blue staining result confirmed that cells produce GAG during differentiation time different from GAG in the scaffolds. Also the results for RT-PCR showed the expression of COL2A1 marker. Immunocytochemistry assay for type II collagen confirm that this protein expressed. Scaffold comprising 15 GAG is better results for chondrogenesis and it can be a good applicant for cartilage tissue engineering. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
