    • Abstract:
      Presently, tissue engineering has been developed as an effective option in the restoration and repair of tissue defects. One of the tissue engineering strategies is to use both biodegradable scaffolds and stimulating factors for enhancing cell responses. In this study, the effect of zeolite was assessed on cell viability, proliferation, osteo/odontogenic differentiation, and mineralization of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) cultured on poly (ε-coprolactone) - poly (ethylene glycol)-poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PEG-PCL) nanofibers. For this purpose, PCL-PEG-PCL nanofibrous scaffolds incorporated with zeolite were prepared via electrospinning. Both PCL-PEG-PCL and PCL-PEG-PCL/Zeolite nanofibrous scaffolds revealed bead-less constructions with average diameters of 430 nm and 437 nm, respectively. HDPSCs were transferred to PCL-PEG-PCL nanofibrous scaffolds containing zeolite nanoparticles. Cell adhesion and proliferation of hDPSCs and their osteo/odontogenic differentiation on these scaffolds were evaluated using MTT assay, Alizarin red S staining, and qRT-PCR assay. The results revealed that PCL-PEG-PCL/Zeolite nanofibrous scaffolds could support better cell adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs and as such is expected to be a promising scaffold for bone tissue engineering applications.
