Abstract:
:A major challenge when designing cell scaffolds for chondrocyte delivery in vivo is creating scaffolds with sufficient mechanical properties to restore initial function while simultaneously controlling temporal changes in the gel structure to facilitate tissue formation. To address this design challenge, degradable photocrosslinked hydrogels based on poly(ethylene glycol) were investigated. To alter the gel's initial mechanical properties, hydrogels were fabricated by varying the initial macromer concentration from 10% to 15% to 20%. A twofold increase in macromer concentration resulted in an eightfold increase in the initial compressive modulus from 60 to 500 kPa. Gel degradation was tailored by incorporating fast-degrading crosslinks that enable maximal extracellular matrix (ECM) diffusion with time and a minimal number of nondegrading (or slowly degrading) crosslinks to maintain scaffold integrity and prevent complete gel erosion during tissue formation. Chondrocytes encapsulated in these gels produced cartilaginous tissue rich in glycosaminoglycans and collagen as seen biochemically and histologically. Interestingly, mass loss appeared to more closely match tissue secretion in gels fabricated from a 15% macromer concentration. However, the spatial ECM distribution was grossly similar in all three gels. By tailoring gel degradation and controlling network evolution during degradation, gels with optimal properties can be fabricated to support initially physiologic compressive loads while simultaneously supporting the formation of a neotissue.
