Abstract

Potentiation of stem cell potency is critical for successful tissue engineering, especially for bone regeneration. Three-dimensional cell culture and bioactive molecule co-delivery with cells have been proposed to achieve this effect. Here, we provide a uniform and scalable fabrication of osteogenic microtissue constructs of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) spheroids surface-engineered with dexamethasone-releasing polydopamine-coated microparticles (PD-DEXA/MPs) to target bone regeneration. The microparticle conjugation process was rapid and cell-friendly and did not affect the cell viability or key functionalities. The incorporation of DEXA in the conjugated system significantly enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of MSC spheroids, as evidenced by upregulating osteogenic gene expression and intense alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red S staining. In addition, the migration of MSCs from spheroids was tested on a biocompatible macroporous fibrin scaffold (MFS). The result showed that PD-DEXA/MPs were stably anchored on MSCs during cell migration over time. Finally, the implantation of PD-DEXA/MP-conjugated spheroid-loaded MFS into a calvarial defect in a mouse model showed substantial bone regeneration. In conclusion, the uniform fabrication of microtissue constructs containing MSC spheroids with drug depots shows a potential to improve the performance of MSCs in tissue engineering.
