Embodiment 1

[0288] Embodiment 1. mouse CNCC and BMMSC culture

[0289] Four-week-old mice were euthanized according to USC IACUC-approved procedures and their mandibles were isolated, minced and digested with 2 mg / ml type I collagenase and 4 mg / ml dispase II in PBS for 1 hour at 37°C. The long bone marrow was flushed from the femur and tibia, centrifuged quickly and resuspended. Single-cell suspensions were obtained by passing cells through a 70 μm filter and inoculated in a medium supplemented with 20% FBS, 2 mM L-glutamine, 55 μM 2-mercaptoethanol, 100 U / ml penicillin, and 100 μg / ml streptavidin. Prime α-MEM in a 10 cm plate dish. The medium was changed after the initial incubation for 48 hours.

Embodiment 2

[0290] Example 2. Subcutaneous cell implantation

[0291] CNCC and BMMSC were mixed in ratios of 9:1, 5:5 and 1:9. Then add a total of 2×10 6 cells implanted under the skin of immunocompromised mice. Mice were euthanized and cells were harvested three months after implantation, fixed in 4% PFA, decalcified and sectioned for histological examination.

Embodiment 3

[0292] Example 3. Scaffold degradation and cytotoxicity

[0293] Polycaprolactone (PCL)-based 3D-printed scaffolds were implanted subcutaneously in immunocompromised mice and collected at various time points to test their degradation profile by measuring their dry weight.

[0294] To test the potential cytotoxicity of PCL scaffolds, NIH3T3 cells were incubated at 1 × 10 4 Cells / well were seeded in 96-well plates. After 24 hours of incubation to allow cell attachment, the PCL scaffolds were co-cultured in DMEM medium with 10% FBS for 72 hours. MTT cell assay to test cell viability was performed following the manufacturer's instructions (Abeam).
