Porous scaffolds were prepared by three steps, i.e. solventcasting, compression molding and leaching stage. Factors influencing the compressive strength and the degradation behaviorof the porous scaffold, e.g. weight fraction of pore forming agent-sodium chloride (NaCl), weight ratio of PLLA: β-TCP,the particle size of β-TCP and the porosity, were discussed in details. Rat marrow stromal cells (RMSC) were incorporatedinto the composite by tissue engineering approach. Biological and osteogenesis potential of the composite scaffold weredetermined with MTT assay, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and bone osteocalcin (OCN) content evaluation. Resultsshow that PLLA/β-TCP bioactive porous scaffold has good mechanical and pore structure with adjustable compressive strengthneeded for surgery. RMSCs seeding on porous PLLA/β-TCP composite behaves good seeding efficacy, biocompatibility andosteoinductive potential. Osteoprogenitor cells could well penetrate into the material matrix and begin cell proliferation andosteogenic differentiation. Osseous matrix could be formed on the surface of the composite after culturing in vitro. It isexpected that the PLLA/β-TCP porous composites are promising scaffolds for bone tissue engineering in prosthesis surgery.展开更多

The degradation characteristics of the poly （d, l-lactide） composite films were studied in vitro and in vivo. The acidity produced by poly （d, l-lactide） materials was not obvious. Adding chitosan and β-TCP can relieve the acidity problem and improve strength performance of films. The NGF has influences on the degradation characteristics of films. It is verified that PDLLA/CHI/β-TCP/NGF composite films prepared by solvent evaporation method have excellent degradation characteristics. It can be used as a perfect biomaterial for repairing nerve injuries.展开更多
