Abstract
Degenerative
diseases of bone has gained a great attention because afflicted elderly
population is increasing worldwide. The surgery is currently the main
intervention to repair the diseased parts such as degenerative disc disease.
Likewise, the patient-specific orthopedic devices are considered a better choice
to fit into the patients with racial differences around the world. Recently rapid
prototyping (or called solid freeform fabrication) has
emerged to produce custom-made objects including orthopedic implants.
Therefore, this study employed a home-made air pressure-assisted nozzle system
to fabricate porous scaffolds of poly (ethylene glycol)-block-(e-caprolacton) designed by a
three-dimensional drawing of the computer aided design drawing. The nozzle
system features a quick translation of 3D drawing to ready-to-implantation scaffolds. Additionally, to facilitate the adhesion and
spreading of osteoblast cells, oligopeptide RGD was introduced to the surface
of the scaffold by reacting RGD peptide with PEG-PCL copolymer functionalized
with the terminal group of carboxylic acid. The scanning electron microscopic
images of RGD-modified scaffolds cultured with osteoblast cells showed profound
attachment and spreading of the cell as cultured time increased. Yet the compressive strength of
hydroxyapatite-doped scaffolds was enhanced. The implantation of
multi-layered scaffolds from the
cartilage surface into subcondrol bone in the tibia of New Zeeland rabbits displayed
full healing of subcondral bone while the cartilage was partly filled with
fibrous tissue. To induce biphasic tissue formation (osteochondral tissues) we
have investigated hyaluronic acid hydrogel to the site of injury.
