Electrospun nanofibrous structure: A novel scaffold for tissue engineering

TL;DR: A novel poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) structure with a unique architecture produced by an electrospinning process has been developed for tissue-engineering applications, which acts to support and guide cell growth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Multilineage differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells in a three-dimensional nanofibrous scaffold.

TL;DR: A three-dimensional nanofibrous scaffold fabricated from poly(epsilon-caprolactone) (PCL) for its ability to support and maintain multilineage differentiation of bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells in vitro is tested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological response of chondrocytes cultured in three-dimensional nanofibrous poly(epsilon-caprolactone) scaffolds.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the biological activities of FBCs are crucially dependent on the architecture of the extracellular scaffolds as well as the composition of the culture medium, and that nanofibrous PCL acts as a biologically preferred scaffold/substrate for proliferation and maintenance of the chondrocytic phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fabrication and characterization of six electrospun poly(alpha-hydroxy ester)-based fibrous scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.

TL;DR: It is suggested that specific, optimized fabrication parameters are required for each polymer to produce scaffolds that consist of uniform structures morphologically similar to native extracellular matrix, suggesting that such scaffolds may be promising candidate biomaterials for tissue engineering applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue Stiffness Dictates Development, Homeostasis, and Disease Progression

TL;DR: The important role that matrix stiffness plays in dictating cell behavior during development, tissue homeostasis, and disease progression is reviewed.
