Proper cell attachment and distribution, and thus stronger association in vivo between a bone implant and native tissue will improve the success of the implant. In this study, the aim was to achieve promotion of attachment and uniform distribution of rat mesenchymal stem cell-derived osteoblasts by introducing chemical and topographical cues on poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) film surfaces. As the chemical cues, either alkaline phosphatase was covalently immobilized on the film surface to induce deposition of calcium phosphate minerals or fibrinogen was adsorbed to improve cell adhesion. Microgrooves and micropits were introduced on the film surface by negative replication of micropatterned Si wafers. Both chemical cues improved cell attachment and even distribution on the PHBV films, but Fb was more effective especially when combined with the micropatterns. Cell alignment (<10 degrees deviation angle) parallel to chemically modified microgrooves (1, 3, or 8 mu m groove width) and on 10 mu m-thick Fb lines printed on the unpatterned films was achieved. The cells on unpatterned and 5 mu m-deep micropitted films were distributed and oriented randomly. Results of this study proved that microtopographies on PHBV can improve osseointegration when combined with chemical cues, and that microgrooves and cell adhesive protein lines on PHBV can guide selective osteoblast adhesion and alignment.

Reduced adhesion of macrophages on anodized titanium with select nanotube surface features
Rajyalakshmi, Amancherla; Ercan, Batur; Balasubramanian, K.; Webster, Thomas J. (2011-01-01)
One of the important prerequisites for a successful orthopedic implant apart from being osteoconductive is the elicitation of a favorable immune response that does not lead to the rejection of the implant by the host tissue. Anodization is one of the simplest surface modification processes used to create nanotextured and nanotubular features on metal oxides which has been shown to improve bone formation. Anodization of titanium (Ti) leads to the formation of TiO(2) nanotubes on the surface, and the presence...
Development of a calcium phosphate-gelatin composite as a bone substitute and its use in drug release
Yaylaoglu, MB; Korkusuz, P; Ors, U; Korkusuz, F; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (1999-04-01)
This study was carried out to develop a calcium phosphate-gelatin composite implant that would mimic the structure and function of bone for use in filling voids or gaps and to release bioactive compounds like drugs, growth hormones into the implant site to assist healing. XDS analysis of the synthesized calcium phosphate revealed a calcium to phosphorus molar ratio of ca. 2.30, implying a less erodible material than hydroxyapatite (1.67). Release of the antibiotic gentamicin from the implant was with a burs...
Differentiation of BMSCs into Nerve Precursor Cells on Fiber-Foam Constructs for Peripheral Nerve Tissue Engineering
Dursun Usal, Tuğba; YÜCEL, DENİZ; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2018-06-01)
Bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) are frequently used in nerve tissue engineering studies due to ease of their isolation and high potential for differentiation into nerve cells. A bilayer fiber-foam construct containing nanofibrous elements to house and guide BMSCs was designed as a model to study the regeneration of damaged peripheral nerve tissue and eventually serve as a nerve guide. The construct consisted of a) a macroporous bottom layer to serve as the backing and support, and for nutrient transport, and...
Structural investigation of donor age effect on human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells: FTIR spectroscopy and imaging
Aksoy, Ceren; AERTS KAYA, FATİMA SUSANNA F.; KUŞKONMAZ, BÜLENT BARIŞ; Uckan, Duygu; Severcan, Feride (2014-08-01)
Stem cell studies hold enormous potential for development of new therapies for tissue regeneration and repair. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) can differentiate into a variety of nonhematopoietic tissues and contribute maintenance of healthy hematopoiesis by providing supportive cellular microenvironment into BM. Here, we investigated age-related differences in BM-MSCs by using attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and FTIR imaging together with hierarch...
Synthesis of baghdadite using modified sol–gel route and investigation of its properties for bone treatment applications
Jodati, Hossein; Tezcaner, Ayşen; Evis, Zafer; Alshemary, Ammar Z; ÇELİK, ERDAL (2022-01-01)
The requirement for biomaterials with superior properties, used in bone treatment applications, is inevitable due to escalated bone tissue defects. Baghdadite (BAG) is a calcium silicate that benefits from the presence of zirconium (Zr) in its structure and has attracted huge attention in recent years. In this study, a modified sol–gel route was proposed to synthesize BAG by dissolving Zr precursor separately and using optimum amounts of solvent and chelating agent. Due to thermal gravimetric analysis and d...
