Abstract
We fabricated sponge and poly(lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA) scaffolds impregnated demineralized bone particle(DBP)(DBP/PLGA) and investigated proper condition to proliferation and phenotype maintenance of intervertebral disc(IVD) cells by comparison between DBP/PLGA scaffold and DBP sponge. DBP/PLGA scaffolds were prepared by solvent casting/salt leaching. Human IVD cells were seeded in scaffolds of two types. Cell viability and proliferation according to scaffolds were analyzed by WST assay and SEM. RT-PCR was assessed to measure mRNA expression of aggrecan and type II collagen of human IVD cells. In WST assay results, cell viability in scaffolds impregnated DBP/PLGA scaffold were higher than DBP sponge. We could observe that disc cell mRNA expressed better in DBP/PLGA scaffold than DBP sponge. We concluded that the using of DBP/PLGA in terms of scaffold fabrication for bio-disc with human IVD cells is helpful growth of disc cells maintenance of phenotypes.

본 연구팀은 DBP를 함침시킨 물성이 서로 다른 스폰지와 PLGA 지지체를 제작한 후 세포 부착, 증식 및 형태 유지를 알아보기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. WST 분석법과 SEM 관찰을 통하여 스폰지에 비해서 PLGA 지지체에서의 세포의 증식이 활발한 것을 확인하였고, RT-PCR을 통해 디스크세포에서 특이적으로 발현하는 제 2형 콜라겐과 어그리칸의 발현을 확인하였다. WST 결과, 세포 증식률은 DBP/PLGA 지지체가 DBP를 함침시킨 스폰지보다 세포 증식률이 높음을 확인하였다. 본 연구팀은 스폰지보다 PLGA 지지체가 인간디스크의 표현형 유지 및 증식에 있어서 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다.
