Most tissue engineering strategies for creating functional replacement tissues or organs rely on the application of temporary three-dimensional scaffolds to guide the proliferation and spread of seeded cells in vitro and in vivo. Scaffolds should be satisfied following requirements; macrostructure to promote cell proliferation, pore interconnectivity, pore size ranging from 200 to $400{\mu}m$, surface chemistry and mechanical properties. Rapid prototyping techniques have often been used as an useful process that fabricates scaffolds with complex structures. In this study, a new process to fabricate a three-dimensional scaffolds using bio-compatible polymer has been developed. It employs a highly accurate three-dimensional positioning system with pressure-controlled syringe to deposit biopolymer structures. The pressure-activated microsyringe is equipped with fine-bore nozzles of various inner-diameters. In order to examine relationships between line width and process parameters such as nozzle height, applied pressure, and speed of needle, experiments were carried out. Based on the experimental results, three-dimensional scaffold was fabricated using the apparatus. It shows the validity of the proposed process.

Clinically-favored materials for bone regeneration are mainly based on bioceramics due to their chemical similarity to the mineral phase of bone. A successful scaffold in bone regeneration should have a 3D interconnected pore structure with the proper biodegradability, biocompatibility, bioactivity, and mechanical property. The pore architecture and mechanical properties mainly dependent on the fabrication process. Bioceramics scaffolds are fabricated by polymer sponge method, freeze drying, and melt molding process in general. However, these typical processes have some shortcomings in both the structure and interconnectivity of pores and in controlling the mechanical stability. To overcome this limitation, the rapid prototyping (RP) technique have newly proposed. Researchers have suggested RP system in fabricating bioceramics scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration using selective laser sintering, powder printing with an organic binder to form green bodies prior to sintering. Meanwhile, sintering process in high temperature leads to bad cost performance, unexpected crystallization, unstable mechanical property, and low bio-functional performance. The development of RP process without high thermal treatment is especially important to enhance biofunctional performance of scaffold. The purpose of this study is development of new process to fabricate ceramic scaffold at room temperature. The structural properties of the scaffolds were analyzed by XRD, FE-SEM and TEM studies. The biological performance of the scaffolds was also evaluated by monitoring the cellular activity.

Benzofuran-7-carboxamide was identified as a novel scaffold of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) inhibitor. A series of compounds with various 2-substituents including (tertiary amino)methyl moieties substituted with aryl ring and aryl groups containing tertiary amines, were synthesized and biologically evaluated to elucidate the structure-activity relationships and optimize the potency. 2-[4-(Pyrrolidin-1-ylmethyl)phenyl]-benzofuran-7-carboxamide (42) was the most potent as an IC50 value of 40 nM among those.

In recent tissue engineering field, it is being reported that the fabrication of 3D scaffolds having high porous and controlled internal/external architectures can give potential contributions in cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation. To fabricate these scaffolds, various solid free-form fabrication technologies are being applied. The solid free-form fabrication technology has made it possible to fabricate solid free-form 3D microstructures in layer-by-layer manner. In this research, we developed a multi-head deposition system (MHDS) and used design of experiment (DOE) to fabricate 3D scaffold having an optimized internal/external shape, Through the organization of experimental approach using DOE, the fabrication process of scaffold, which is composed of blended poly-caprolactone (PCL), poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP), is established to get uniform line width, line height and porosity efficiently Moreover, the feasibility of application to the tissue engineering of MHDS is demonstrated by human bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSCs) proliferation test.

The average life span is over 80 years of age, and various biomaterials have being studied. Many research institutes and companies around the world have been commercializing bioactive glass through R&D, however, there is not much research in Korea. Most bioactive glass is applied to bone regeneration in powder form due to its excellent bio-compatibility. Recently, new applications such as scaffolds for tissue engineering and nerve regeneration have been found in composite form. The global market size is not as large as US $ 556 million in 2019, but the growth rate is very high at a CAGR of 14.35 %. This field is waiting for the challenge of new researchers.

본 연구팀은 DBP를 함침시킨 물성이 서로 다른 스폰지와 PLGA 지지체를 제작한 후 세포 부착, 증식 및 형태 유지를 알아보기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. WST 분석법과 SEM 관찰을 통하여 스폰지에 비해서 PLGA 지지체에서의 세포의 증식이 활발한 것을 확인하였고, RT-PCR을 통해 디스크세포에서 특이적으로 발현하는 제 2형 콜라겐과 어그리칸의 발현을 확인하였다. WST 결과, 세포 증식률은 DBP/PLGA 지지체가 DBP를 함침시킨 스폰지보다 세포 증식률이 높음을 확인하였다. 본 연구팀은 스폰지보다 PLGA 지지체가 인간디스크의 표현형 유지 및 증식에 있어서 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.

In bone tissue engineering, polycaprolactone (PCL) is one of the most widely used biomaterials to manufacture scaffolds as a synthetic polymer with biodegradability and biocompatibility. The polymer deposition system (PDS) with four axis heads, which can dispense bio-polymers, has been used in scaffold fabrication for tissue engineering applications. A dual-head deposition technology of PDS is an effective technique to fabricate 3D scaffolds. The electrospinning technology has been widely used to fabricate porous and highly interconnected polymer fibers. Thus, PDS can fabricate nanofiber-combined hybrid scaffolds using fused deposition modeling (FDM) and electrospinning methods. This study aims to fabricate nanofiber-combined scaffolds with uniform nanofibers using PDS. The PCL nanofibers were fabricated and evaluated according to the fabrication process parameters. PCL nanofibers were successfully fabricated when the applied voltage, tip-to-collector distance, flow rate, and solution concentration were 5 kV, 1 cm, 0.1 ml/h, and 8 wt%, respectively. The cell proliferation was evaluated according to the electrospinning time. Scanning electron microscopy was used to acquire images of the cross-sectioned hybrid scaffolds. The cell proliferation test of the PCL and nanofiber-combined hybrid scaffolds was performed using a CCK-8 assay according to the electrospinning time. The result of in-vitro cell proliferation using osteosarcoma MG-63 cells shows that the hybrid scaffold has good potential for bone regeneration.

Cellulose, chitin, chitosan and hyaluronic acid are well known as polysaccharides. These polysaccharides have many effects on cell growth and differentiation. Cell activation increases with increasing the polysaccharides concentration. In this study, gelatin scaffold containing microorganism fermented cellulose, citrus gel were prepared by using irradiation technique. Physical properties of the scaffolds were investigated as a function of the concentrations of gelatin and citrus gel and the cell attachment, cell morphology and inflammation of the scaffolds also were characterized for regeneration of skin tissue.
