Abstract

Tissue regeneration after smooth muscle tissue injury is a pivotal issue in tissue engineering. Good artificial scaffolds to continuously form long thin spindle-shaped smooth muscle cells in the damaged muscle tissues are important for tissue regeneration. In this work, poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and poly(ϵ-caprolactone) (PCL) were used to fabricate aligned or random electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds (ENSs) by using electrospinning technique. The cell growth and elastin expression of human vascular smooth muscle cells (HVSMCs) on these membranes were analyzed. Smooth PLGA/PCL film was used as control. The experimental results showed that the aligned ENS could maintain cell shapes of HVSMCs during the culture process. During the HVSMCs proliferation process, elastin expression firstly increase due to cell proliferation, and then decrease due to elastin degradation by elastase secreted by the cells. All these results suggest that aligned PLGA/PCL ENS can be a promising candidate for cell regeneration after smooth muscle tissue injury.
