Abstract
Scaffolds that mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) can promote the proliferation of stem cells. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM)/gelatin (PG) nanogel electrospun membranes were designed to replicate the hierarchical and dynamic nature of ECMs. First, PG nanogels with semi-interpenetrating network structures were synthesized by emulsion polymerization. Characterization using 1H NMR and FTIR spectroscopies confirmed the successful incorporation of gelatin into the PNIPAM-based network. The PG nanogels were spherical with a size of 184.1–231.9 nm, and they demonstrated a thermoresponsive behavior. The rehydrated nanofibers exhibited an average diameter of 663.6 ± 50.1 nm and a Young’s modulus of 1.3 ± 0.1 MPa at 37 °C. The membrane completely degraded within 10 min of collagenase treatment. Adipose-derived stem cells from rats exhibited good proliferation on the PG membranes, with cell proliferation in the PNI50 group being 1.47 times that in the tissue culture plate (TCP) group. The PG nanofibers showed potential for stem cell expansion.
期刊介绍:
ACS Applied Polymer Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of engineering, chemistry, physics, and biology relevant to applications of polymers.
The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates fundamental knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, polymer science and chemistry into important polymer applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses relationships among structure, processing, morphology, chemistry, properties, and function as well as work that provide insights into mechanisms critical to the performance of the polymer for applications.
