Abstrakt: Bioresorbable biomaterials can fill bone defects and act as temporary scaffold to recruit MSCs to stimulate their differentiation. Among the different bioresorbable polymers studied, this work focuses on poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL). Were prepared blends of PHBV and PCL to obtain PHBV based biomaterials with good tenacity, important for bone tissue repair, associated with biocompatible properties of PCL. This study assesses the viability of Vero cells on scaffolds of PHBV, PCL, and their blends and the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Materials were characterized in surface morphology, DSC and Impact Strength (IS). Vero cells and MSCs were assessed by MTT assay, cytochemical and SEM analysis. MSC osteogenic differentiation was evaluated through alizarin red staining and ALP activity. We found some roughness onto surface materials. DSC showed that the blends presented two distinct melting peaks, characteristic of immiscible blends. IS test confirmed that PHBV-PCL blends is an alternative for increase the tenacity of PHBV. MTT assay showed cells with high metabolic activities on extract toxicity test, but with low activity in the direct contact test. SEM analysis showed spreading cells with irregular and flattened morphology on different substrates. Cytochemical study revealed that MSCs maintained their morphology, although in smaller number for MSCs. The development of nodules of mineralized organic matrix in MSC cultures was identified by alizarin red staining and osteogenic differentiation was confirmed by the quantification of ALP activity. Thus, our scaffolds did not interfere on viability of Vero cells or the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
