Use of scaffolds both as supporting materials at defect site and delivery vehicles for bioactive agents is a commonly employed strategy to aid in tissue repair and regeneration. In this study, fibrous meshes of chitosan were prepared by wet spinning and coated with alginate. BSA as a model protein and gentamicin as a model antibiotic were incorporated into the scaffolds in multiple loading models and their release kinetics were studied. The effects of structural form of scaffold and properties of bioactive agents on release profiles were evaluated. Our results suggest that, designed scaffolds are potential candidates for tissue engineering with the feature of controlled bioactive agent delivery. (c) 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Chitosan magnetic nanoparticles for pH responsive Bortezomib release in cancer therapy
ÜNSOY, GÖZDE; Yalcin, Serap; Khodadust, Rouhollah; Mutlu, Pelin; Onguru, Onder; Gündüz, Ufuk (2014-06-01)
The use of nanotechnology in cancer treatment offers exciting opportunities, including the possibility of destroying tumors with minimal damage to healthy tissue by novel targeted drug delivery systems. pH differences between healthy and tumor microenvironment provide pH responsive release of drugs at tumor site via smart nanoparticles. In this study, chitosan coated superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (CS MNPs) were in situ synthesized by ionic crosslinking method as nanocarrier systems and loaded w...
Chitosan Polysaccharide Suppress Toll Like Receptor Dependent Immune Response
Tincer, Gizem; Bayyurt Kocabaş, Banu; Arica, Yakup M.; Gursel, Ihsan (2015-04-01)
Chitosan is a widely used vaccine or anti-cancer delivery vehicle. In this study, we investigated the immunomodulatory effect of chitosan/pIC nanocomplexes on mouse immune cells. Materials and methods: Proliferative and cytotoxic features of chitosan were tested via CCK-8 assay on RAW 264.7. IL-1b p roduction was a ssessed v ia E LISA f rom PEC s upernatants. T NF-a, and NO induction from chitosan treated RAW cells detected by ELISA and Griess assay, respectively. mRNA message levels of TLRs and cytokines o...
Biopolymer based micro/nanoparticles as drug carriers for the treatment of skin diseases
Eke, Gözde; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Department of Micro and Nanotechnology (2011)
Controlled drug delivery systems are becoming increasingly interesting with the contribution of nanotechnology. In the case of transdermal applications the greatest limitation is the highly impermeable outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum. One promising method of controlled transdermal drug delivery of the skin therapeutics is the use of nanoparticles as carriers. Encapsulation of the drug, as opposed to classical topical application of creams or emulsions, allows the drug to diffuse into hair f...
Adsorption of blood proteins on glow-discharge-modified polyurethane membranes
Kayirhan, N; Denizli, A; Hasırcı, Nesrin (2001-08-08)
Polyurethanes are a class of polymers that have a wide range of applications in the medical field although their blood compatibility still needs improvement. In order to obtain medical purity, this study prepared membrane-form polyurethanes from toluene 2,4-diisocyanate (TDI) and poly(propylene ethylene glycol) without the addition of any ingredients such as solvents, catalysts, or chain extenders. The aim was to increase surface hydrophilicity and improve blood compatibility. Therefore, the prepared membra...
Chitosan microspheres and films used in controlled release
Uylukçuoğlu, Beyza; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Yılmaz, Elvan; Department of Chemistry (2003)
Thalassemia, a genetic blood disorder, occurs as a result of deformations of hemoglobin structures. Patients with thalassemia develop iron overload from chronic blood transfusions and require regular iron chelation to prevent potentially fatal iron-related complications. Deferiprone is a commercially available drug used as iron chelator for the treatment of thalassemia but the very long-term effectiveness is not clearly known yet. Therefore, some studies were carried out to find effective alternative drugs ...
