Abstract
Articular cartilage defects pose a significant challenge due to the limited self-healing ability of cartilage. However, traditional techniques face limitations including autologous chondrocyte expansion issues. This study aims to investigate the effects of the polylactic acid-glycolic acid (PLGA) and collagen-surface modified polylactic acid-glycolic acid (CPLGA) microspheres loaded with tetramethylpyrazine (TMP) on two cell types and the regeneration potential of articular cartilage. CPLGA microspheres are prepared by Steglich reaction and characterized. They evaluated the effect of TMP-loaded microspheres on HUVECs (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells) and examined the compatibility of blank microspheres with BMSCs (Bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells) and their potential to promote cartilage differentiation. Subcutaneous implant immune tests and cartilage defect treatment are conducted to assess biocompatibility and cartilage repair potential. The results highlight the efficacy of CPLGA microspheres in promoting tissue regeneration, attributed to improved hydrophilicity and collagen-induced mitigation of degradation. Under hypoxic conditions, both CPLGA and PLGA TMP-loaded microspheres exhibit inhibitory effects on HUVEC proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. Notably, CPLGA microspheres show enhanced compatibility with BMSCs, facilitating chondrogenic differentiation. Moreover, the CPLGA microsphere-composite hydrogel exhibits potential for cartilage repair by modulating angiogenesis and promoting BMSC differentiation.
