Cytotoxicity of glutaraldehyde crosslinked collagen/poly(vinyl alcohol) films is by the mechanism of apoptosis

Gough, Julie E., Scotchford, Colin A., Downes, Sandra·2002·Journal of Biomedical Materials Research

Abstract

Collagen has been investigated as a potential natural biomaterial, because of its occurrence in the extracellular matrix. Collagen requires crosslinking in this context, by reagents that are often cytotoxic. Glutaraldehyde is one such agent that is potentially cytotoxic. The aim of this study was to determine the cause of poor cell attachment and growth on collagen/poly(vinyl alcohol) bioartificial composite films, when crosslinked with glutaraldehyde. Dehydrothermal crosslinking was used as a comparison. Human osteoblasts were observed to undergo apoptosis on glutaraldehyde crosslinked films dependent on concentration of collagen present. Higher collagen content resulted in higher levels of apoptosis with poor cell attachment and spreading of remaining cells. Post‐treatment of films with 8% L‐glutamic acid prevented the apoptotic response of osteoblasts and allowed attachment and spreading. The addition of 100 n M insulin‐like growth factor‐1 to the culture medium also prevented apoptosis. Glutaraldehyde toxicity of crosslinked collagen has been demonstrated in this study, the mechanism of which is apoptosis. This study indicates that poor biocompatibility and induction of apoptosis on collagen/poly(vinyl alcohol) films crosslinked by glutaraldehyde are attributed to glutaraldehyde components on the surface of the films (not residual glutaraldehyde), whose effects can be quenched by glutamic acid, and prevented by insulin‐like growth factor‐1. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
