Nano-hybrid gradient scaffold for articular repair
COLLOIDS AND SURFACES B-BIOINTERFACES(2021)
摘要
Osteoarthritis disease can easily lead to articular cartilage degeneration and subchondral bone damage, so the demand for suitable articular substitutes is gradually increasing. In order to simulate the complex environment of different layers in natural joint, we fabricate the continuous one-phase gradient scaffold. In the study, CS (chitosan) was modified with SH (sodium hyaluronate) and GO (graphene oxide) to form the whole scaffold. nHAP (Nano-hydroxyapatite) was in situ generated with gradient distribution in the scaffold. Continuous interface can better imitate the combination style of cartilage and subchondral bone at joint. The diverseness of scaffold's different layer in water absorption/retention rate and mechanical property is similar to the difference of articular cartilage and subchondral bone. Meanwhile, the cell experiments demonstrated that the bionic scaffold can well promote the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell. Articular defect model further confirmed that the scaffold can better induce articular regeneration. Herein, the prepared scaffold might be an excellent candidate for endogenous articular repair.
