dc.description | There is considerable interest in the design of polymeric biomaterials that can be used for the repair of bone defects. In this study, we used ultrasound to prepare a compatibilized blend of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and poly(diisopropyl fumarate) (PDIPF). The formation of post-sonication inter-polymer coupling products was verified by SEC analysis of a blend with azo-labeled PDIPF. We also analyzed the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the compatibilized blend. When compared to PCL alone, the PCL/PDIPF blend showed no difference in its resistance as evaluated by the elastic modulus, although it did show a 50% decrease in ultimate tensile stress (P <0.05) and an 84% decrease in elongation-at-break (P <0.05). However, the mechanical properties of this blend were comparable to those of trabecular bone. We next evaluated biocompatibility of the PCL/PDIPF blend, and of homo-polymeric PCL and PDIPF films for comparison, with UMR106 andMC3T3E1 osteoblastic cells. Osteoblasts plated on the compatibilized blend adhered and proliferated more than on either homo-polymer, showed a greater number of cellular processes with a better organized actin cytoskeleton and expressed more type-I collagen and mineral, both markers of osteoblast phenotype. These results support the hypothesis that this new compatibilized blend could be useful in future applications for bone regeneration. | - |
