Abstrakt: Craniofacial bone defects result from various disorders such as trauma, congenital malformations and infections. Cleft lip and palate are the most prevalent congenital craniofacial birth defect in humans. Growth factors (GFs) are soluble proteins secreted by cells that regulate various cellular processes and tissue regeneration. At present, developing three-dimensional scaffolds for delivering GFs to the site of injury has become an important aspect in craniofacial bone regeneration. This study aims to develop a novel 3D bone substitute using lyophilized-platelet-rich fibrin (LyPRF) biocomposite scaffolds for potential application for CLP repair. Collagen (C), bioglass (BG), and LyPRF were used to fabricate a biocomposite (C-BG-LyPRF) scaffold. The physical, chemical, and biocompatibility properties of the scaffold were evaluated. The C-BG-LyPRF scaffold demonstrated a mean pore diameter of 146 µm within a porosity of 87.26%. The FTIR spectra verified the presence of am-ide I, II, and III functional groups. The inorganic phase of the C-BG-LyPRF scaffold was composed of sodium, calcium, silicon, and phosphorus, as determined by EDX analysis. Furthermore, C-BG-LyPRF scaffold was biocompatible with MC3T3-E1 cells in both the Live/Dead and prolif-eration assays. Data demonstrate the developed C-BG-LyPRF scaffold exhibits biomimetic and biocompatibility properties, establishing it as a promising biomaterial for craniofacial regeneration.
