ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Due to the increasing demand to generate thick and vascularized tissue-engineered constructs, novel strategies are currently being developed. An effective example is the fabrication of a 3D scaffold containing oxygen-releasing biomaterials to solve the limitations of gas diffusion and transport within transplanted tissues or devices.METHODS:
In this study, we developed a biodegradable scaffold made of polycaprolactone (PCL) mixed with oxygen-generating calcium peroxide (CPO) to design new structures for regenerative tissue using a 3D printer capable of forming arbitrarily shapes. RESULTS ANDCONCLUSION:
When osteoblast progenitor cells (MC3T3-E1 cells) were cultured under hypoxic conditions on scaffolds fabricated with this technique, it was shown that cell death was reduced by the new scaffolds. Therefore, the results suggest that 3D-printed scaffolds made from biodegradable oxygen-releasing materials may be useful for tissue engineering and regeneration.Palavras-chave
