Embodiment 1

[0022] The polylactic acid microspheres were prepared by the emulsion method, and the microspheres with a diameter of 300-350 μm were selected by screening.

[0023] Poly-L-glutamic acid and chitosan were separated by -COOH and -NH 2 The scaffold solution was prepared with a molar ratio of 1:1 and a total solid content of 3%. Add microspheres whose volume accounts for 5% of the scaffold solution volume, and stir well to disperse. The porous scaffold was obtained by freeze-drying, etching, and vacuum drying. The scaffold has continuous spherical holes with a diameter of 300-350 μm; in addition, because the scaffold is prepared by freeze-drying technology, it has many small hole structures with a diameter of 20-50 μm. The measured porosity of the scaffold was 94.49%, and the swelling degree was 793%.

Embodiment 2

[0025] The polylactic acid microspheres were prepared by the emulsion method, and the microspheres with a diameter of 300-350 μm were selected by screening.

[0026] Poly-L-glutamic acid and chitosan were separated by -COOH and -NH 2 The scaffold solution was prepared with a molar ratio of 1:1 and a total solid content of 3%. Add microspheres whose volume accounts for 10% of the scaffold solution volume, and stir well to disperse. The porous scaffold was obtained by freeze-drying, etching, and vacuum drying. The scaffold has continuous spherical holes with a diameter of 300-350 μm; in addition, because the scaffold is prepared by freeze-drying technology, it has many small pores with a diameter of 20-50 μm; The number of spherical holes also increased. The measured porosity of the scaffold was 94.75%, and the swelling degree was 845%.

Embodiment 3

[0028] The polylactic acid microspheres were prepared by the emulsion method, and the microspheres with a diameter of 450-500 μm were selected by screening.

[0029] Poly-L-glutamic acid and chitosan were separated by -COOH and -NH 2 The scaffold solution was prepared with a molar ratio of 1:1 and a total solid content of 3%. Add microspheres whose volume accounts for 5% of the scaffold solution volume, and stir well to disperse. The porous scaffold was obtained by freeze-drying, etching, and vacuum drying. The scaffold has continuous spherical holes with a diameter of 450-500 μm; in addition, because the scaffold is prepared by freeze-drying technology, it has many small hole structures with a diameter of 20-50 μm. The measured porosity of the scaffold was 94.57%, and the swelling degree was 817%.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for regulating the pore structure of a water-soluble polymer tissue engineering scaffold by use of a polyester template. The method comprises the following steps of: adding polylactic acid microspheres or fiber into a water-soluble polymer solution; performing freeze drying; and then removing the template to obtain a porous tissue engineering scaffold. The experimental result shows that: the method can obtain a tissue engineering scaffold with aperture of 100-500 microns, over 90% of porosity and over 700% of swelling degree; the scaffold has the characteristics of controllable aperture, sequential arrangement of holes, good pore connectivity and coexistent big and small pores; the structure with coexistent big and small pores is favorable for inoculating and adhering cells, transporting nutrient substances and discharging metabolic products; and moreover, the research indicates that: the differentiation behavior of the stem cell in the scaffold can be intervened in by adjusting the pore structure of the scaffold.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tissue engineering, in particular to a method for regulating the pore structure of a water-soluble polymer tissue engineering scaffold with a polyester template. Background technique [0002] For tissue engineering, tissue engineering scaffolds are one of the keys to regeneration of tissue defects. Tissue engineering scaffold is a substitute for extracellular matrix (ECM), which provides physical, chemical and mechanical stimulation signals for cell behaviors such as cell-to-cell interaction, proliferation, differentiation and migration; Regulation and remodeling of the extracellular matrix. Their interactions play important roles in tissue growth, homeostasis, and recovery from disease. [0003] Therefore, tissue engineering scaffolds not only need to simulate the bulk structure and surface physical and chemical properties of natural extracellular matrix (such as chemical composition, hydrophilicity an...
