Three different polymers, Polyvinylpyrrolidone, Polystyrene and Polyacrylonitrile were used to electrospin the cones. These cone structures are spreading out from a vertical conductive pillar, which can be arbitrarily placed on specific part of the collector. The lower part of the cone is clearly defined on the collector, and the cone has a relatively uniform radius around the pillar. The cones are constituted of fibers that are radially aligned towards the top of the pillar, but there is no apex and the fibers fall flat on the top of the pillar surface. A parametric study has been performed to investigate the effects of the pillar morphology (height and thickness) and the electrospinning parameters (applied voltage and working distance) on the overall shape and size of the cone structure, as well as the fiber alignment. The pillar morphology influences directly the cone diameter and height. The electrospinning parameters have little effect on the cone structure. The formation mechanism has been identified to be related to the shape of the electric field, which has been systematically simulated to understand the effect of the electric field lines on the final dimensions of the cone structure.","PeriodicalId":92629,"journal":{"name":"Electrospinning","volume":"2 1","pages":"1 - 14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/esp-2018-0001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48960900","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Electrospun fiber scaffolds have gained prominence for their potential in a variety of applications such as tissue engineering and textile manufacturing, yet none have assessed the impact of solvent retention in fibers on the scaffold's mechanical properties. In this study, we hypothesized that retained electrospinning solvent acts as a plasticizer, and gradual solvent evaporation, by storing fibers in ambient air, will cause significant increases in electrospun fiber scaffold brittleness and stiffness, and a significant decrease in scaffold toughness. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated solvent retention in PGA, PLCL, and PET fibers, and not in PU and PCL fibers. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that polymers that were electrospun below their glass transition temperature (T g ) retained solvent and polymers electrospun above T g did not. Young's moduli increased and yield strain decreased for solventretaining PGA, PLCL, and PET fiber scaffolds as solvent evaporated from the scaffolds over a period of 14 days. Toughness and failure strain decreased for PGA and PET scaffolds as solvent evaporated. No significant differences were observed in the mechanical properties of PU and PCL scaffolds that did not retain solvent. These observations highlight the need to consider solvent retention following electrospinning and its potential effects on scaffold mechanical properties.","PeriodicalId":92629,"journal":{"name":"Electrospinning","volume":"2 1","pages":"15-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/esp-2018-0002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37355575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Decellularized ECM (DECM) scaffolds have been widely used in various tissue engineering applications with varying levels of success. The mechanical, architectural and bioactive properties of a DECM scaffold depend largely on the method of decellularization and dictate its clinical efficacy. This article highlights the advantages and challenges associated with the clinical use of DECM scaffolds. Poor mechanical strength is a significant disadvantage of some DECM scaffolds in the repair of load-bearing tissues as well as critical-size defects, where long-term mechanical support is required for the regenerating tissue. Combining DECM scaffolds with synthetic biocompatible polymers could provide a useful strategy to circumvent the issues of poor mechanical stability. This article reviews studies that have combined DECM scaffolds from various tissues with synthetic polymers to create hybrid scaffolds using electrospinning. These hybrid scaffolds provide a mechanical backbone while retaining the bioactive properties of DECM, thus offering a significant advantage for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications.","PeriodicalId":92629,"journal":{"name":"Electrospinning","volume":"1 1","pages":"87 - 99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/esp-2017-0005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45868484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Macrophages (MACs) play a crucial role in the innate immune system, contributing to wound healing and overall regeneration. MACs have been found to possess the potential to be activated by external factors from their M0 inactive state to an M1 proinflammatory or M2 regenerative state. This study conducted a comprehensive evaluation of MAC phenotype in response to electrospun scaffolds of varying material fiber/pore diameter, fiber stiffness, and +/− inclusion of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Generally, itwas found that the addition of PRP resulted in decreased pore size, where 5 silk fibroin (SF) had the stiffest fibers. Furthermore, PRP scaffolds demonstrated an increased production of VEGF and chemotaxis. The polycaprolactone (PCL) and SF scaffolds had the largest cell infiltration and proliferation. Overall, it was found that 5% SF had both ideal fiber and pore structure, allowing for cell infiltration further enhanced by the presence of PRP. Additionally, this scaffold led to a reasonable production of VEGF while still allowing fibroblast proliferation to occur. These results suggest that such a scaffold could provide an off-the-shelf product capable of modifying the local MAC response.","PeriodicalId":92629,"journal":{"name":"Electrospinning","volume":"1 1","pages":"31 - 45"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/esp-2017-0001","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41352790","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review critically evaluates the commercialization potential of electrospun scaffolds for applications in stem cell biology, including tissue engineering. First, it provides an overview of pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) and their defining properties, pluripotency and the ability to self-renew. These cells serve as an important tool for engineering tissues, including for clinical applications. Next, we review the technique of electrospinning and its promise for fabricating cell culture substrates and scaffolds for directing tissue formation from stem cells and compare these scaffolds to existing technologies, such as hydrogels. We address the associated market for electrospun scaffolds for PSCs and its potential for growth along with highlighting the importance of 3D cell culture substrates for PSCs by analyzing the net capital invested in this market and the associated growth rate. This review finishes by detailing the current state of commercializing electrospun scaffolds along with pathways for translating these scaffolds from research laboratories into successful start-up companies and the associated challenges with this process.","PeriodicalId":92629,"journal":{"name":"Electrospinning","volume":"1 1","pages":"62 - 72"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/esp-2017-0003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46196526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) the thermal behavior of the as-spun nanofiberswas studied. The morphology of the nanofibers was examined by transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM and SEM, respectively) while the chemical composition and crystal structure were analyzed by energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS) and wide angle x-ray diffraction (WAXD). A vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) was used to evaluate the magnetic properties. Different types of mats with different nanofibers´ dimensions were obtained; while some nanofibers were interconnected, otherswere completely separated and aligned. The thinnest nanofiberswere obtained using an aluminum substrate with folds and after annealing at 550∘C. All samples annealed at this temperature formed pure BiFeO3, while samples annealed at 550 and 750∘C formed an additional Bi2Fe4O9 phase. No iron impurities were detected; the crystallite size of all the nanofibers was between 30 and 36 nm. The saturation magnetization increased with the decrease of the nanofiber´s diameter and increase of nanofibers interconnectivity. Thus, this ferromagnetism behavior was attributed to the suppression of the spiral spin structure of BiFeO3 (which has a 62 nm period) and to the morphology of interconnected nanofibers.","PeriodicalId":92629,"journal":{"name":"Electrospinning","volume":"1 1","pages":"73 - 86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1515/esp-2017-0004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48806692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, there remains a need for a flexible threedimensional template system which could be combined with cell suspensions to promote three-dimensional tissue regeneration, and ultimately allow cells to freely reorganize and modify their microenvironment. In this study, a mincing process was designed and optimized to create mixtures of electrospun fibers/branched-clusters for use as fundamental tissue engineering building units. These fiber/branched-cluster elements were characterized with regards to fiber and branch lengths, and a method was optimized to combine them with normal human dermal fibroblasts (nHDFs) in culture to create interconnected template constructs. Sectioning and imaging of these constructs revealed cell/fiber integration as well as even cell distribution throughout the construct interior.
