Abstract EN
In light of tissue engineering, development of a functional and controllable scaffold which can promote cell proliferation and differentiation is crucial.
In this study, we introduce a controllable collection method of the electrospinning process for regularly-distributed and uniaxially oriented nanofiber scaffold and evaluate the effects of aligned nanofiber density on adhesion of dermal fibroblasts.
The suggested spinning collector features an inclined void gap, which allows easy transfer of uniformly aligned fibers onto other surfaces.
By undergoing multiple transfers, the density of the nanofibers can be quantitatively controlled.
The resultant polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers had well-defined nanotopography in a 400–600 nm range.
Human dermal fibroblasts were seeded on aligned nanofiber scaffolds of different densities achieved by varying the number of transfers.
Cell morphology and actin stress fiber formation was accessed after seven days.
The experimental results indicate that the contact guidance of the cells along the fiber alignment can be more activated with more than one guidance feature on a cell; that is, the high density of fiber is attained in so much that fiber spacing gets below the cell size.
