This work focusing on studying the biocompatibility and the effect of gelatin porous scaffold on the characteristics of human osteoblast like cells, including proliferation, adhesion, scaffold-cell interaction and its potential to induce bone regeneration. Osteoblast like cells were seeded on gelatin/genipin scaffolds for 7, 14 and 21 days. Cell proliferation assay, light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and high resolution scanning electron microscopy were carried to evaluate cell viability, cell adhesion and the production of extracellular matrix. Cell proliferation assay showed a high biocompatibility of the material. High resolution scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy showed a strong adhesion of MG63 cells on the surface of gelatin scaffold and high penetration in the macroporosities of the material. TEM analysis showed an intense production of extracellular matrix protein. In vitro analysis indicated a good biocompatibility of the scaffold and presents it as a potential candidate material for tissue engineering.

Abstract

This work focusing on studying the biocompatibility and the effect of gelatin porous scaffold on the characteristics of human osteoblast like cells, including proliferation, adhesion, scaffold-cell interaction and its potential to induce bone regeneration. Osteoblast like cells were seeded on gelatin/genipin scaffolds for 7, 14 and 21 days. Cell proliferation assay, light microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and high resolution scanning electron microscopy were carried to evaluate cell viability, cell adhesion and the production of extracellular matrix. Cell proliferation assay showed a high biocompatibility of the material. High resolution scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy showed a strong adhesion of MG63 cells on the surface of gelatin scaffold and high penetration in the macroporosities of the material. TEM analysis showed an intense production of extracellular matrix protein. In vitro analysis indicated a good biocompatibility of the scaffold and presents it as a potential candidate material for tissue engineering.
