CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishThis study aims at identifying compositional and architectural (pore size and distribution) parameters of biocompatible scaffolds, which can be best suitable for both osteoblasts and endothelial cells to produce optimized 3D cocultured constructs. Spongy scaffolds are prepared using poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and gelatin (G) at different weight compositions (PVA/G range: 100/0â50/50, w/w) via emulsion and freeze-drying. The higher the gelatin content, the larger is the volume occupied by higher size pores. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells and human mesenchymal stromal cells are independently differentiated on the scaffolds to select the best candidate for the coculture. The results of metabolic activity and histology on single platforms show both cell- and material-type dependent outcomes. PVA/G 80/20 scaffolds are finally selected and allow the formation of mineralized matrix containing organized endothelial-like structures. This study highlights the need for systematic investigations on multifactorial parameters of scaffolds to improve vascularized bone substitutes.

| Abstract: | This study aims at identifying compositional and architectural (pore size and distribution) parameters of biocompatible scaffolds, which can be best suitable for both osteoblasts and endothelial cells to produce optimized 3D cocultured constructs. Spongy scaffolds are prepared using poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and gelatin (G) at different weight compositions (PVA/G range: 100/0â50/50, w/w) via emulsion and freeze-drying. The higher the gelatin content, the larger is the volume occupied by higher size pores. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells and human mesenchymal stromal cells are independently differentiated on the scaffolds to select the best candidate for the coculture. The results of metabolic activity and histology on single platforms show both cell- and material-type dependent outcomes. PVA/G 80/20 scaffolds are finally selected and allow the formation of mineralized matrix containing organized endothelial-like structures.
