Traumatic brain injury (TBI) often leads to critical tissue damage and loss. Brain tissue engineering is a
promising technique for cellular replacement and neurological functional recovery in animals. However, useful biomaterial
scaffolds have not been found so far. In order to explore the feasibility of stem cell based brain tissue engineering,
it is first necessary to evaluate the biocompatibility of biomaterials with stem cells and brain tissues. In the
present study, two biomaterials, chondrocyte derived ECM (ECM) and silk fibroin (SF) scaffolds, were investigated
for their biocompatibility in vitro and in acute TBI. We found that when the ECM scaffold was cultured with rat mesenchymal
stem cells (rMSCs) or implanted directly into brain injury, had a good biocompatibility. rMSCs, seeded
on the ECM scaffold, were evenly distributed with a spindle shape and attached well, while on SF scaffold attached
with a round shape relatively weakly. In the TBI model, the SF scaffold resulted in a significant increase in the cavity
volume at 6 weeks postimplantation, but not the ECM scaffold. In addition, the ECM scaffold induced a lower
inflammatory response, with active microglia/macrophages at 1 week, than the SF scaffold and control. Interestingly,
both scaffolds reduced glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and neurocan expression in the cavity boundary
throughout the experimental periods. These results indicate that the scaffolds tested inhibit the glial scar formation
in injured brain tissue. Moreover, there were no significant differences in the neurological outcome and weight body
gain, when compared with the brain injury alone. Taken together, these findings reveal that the ECM scaffold
showed good biocompatibility to the donor rMSCs and host brain tissue. Thus, the ECM scaffold seems to be beneficial
as a biomaterial for brain tissue engineering.*표시는 필수 입력사항입니다.
