Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and characterization of novel bone scaffolds based on electrospun polycaprolactone fibers filled with nanoparticles.
TL;DR: In this article, polycaprolactone (PCL) solutions containing nanoparticles of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) or hydroxyapatite (HA) were found to increase the diameters of the as-spun fibers with the addition and increasing amounts of the nanoparticulate fillers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bone scaffolds from electrospun fiber mats of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) and their blend
TL;DR: Cytotoxicity evaluation of these as-spun fiber mats with human osteoblasts (SaOS-2) and mouse fibroblasts (L929) indicated biocompatibility of these materials to both types of cells, implying a high potential for use of these electrospun Fiber mats as bone scaffolds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polycaprolactone/hydroxyapatite composite scaffolds: Preparation, characterization, and in vitro and in vivo biological responses of human primary bone cells
Boontharika Chuenjitkuntaworn,Wipawan Inrung,Damrong Damrongsri,Kongkwan Mekaapiruk,Pitt Supaphol,Prasit Pavasant +5 more
TL;DR: The results demonstrated that the prepared PCL/HAp scaffold could be a good candidate as synthetic substitute for bone tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Osteoblastic phenotype expression of MC3T3-E1 cultured on electrospun polycaprolactone fiber mats filled with hydroxyapatite nanoparticles.
TL;DR: Electrospun (e-spun) fiber mats of polycaprolactone with or without the presence of hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles (at 1% w/v based on the volume of the PCL solution) were successfully fabricated and the potential for use as bone scaffolds was assessed by mouse calvaria-derived pre-osteoblastic cells, MC3T3-E1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular and cellular analysis of basement membrane invasion by human breast cancer cells in Matrigel-based in vitro assays.
