Controlled Release of PDGF-bb by Coaxial Electrospun Dextran/Poly(L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) Fibers with an Ultrafine Core/Shell Structure
Abstract
Membranes composed of dextran (DEX) and poly(L-lactide-co-epsilon-caprolactone) (PLCL) as ultrafine core/shell fibers for loading platelet-derived growth factor-bb (PDGF-bb) were produced by coaxial electrospinning. The morphology and core/shell structure of the DEX/PLCL fibers containing PDGF-bb were investigated by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The loading amount of PDGF-bb in the DEX/PLCL membrane prepared at 0.1 ml/h of the inner solution flow rate (DEX/PLCL-1P) was much lower than that in DEX/PLCL-2P and DEX/PLCL-3P obtained at 0.2 ml/h and 0.3 ml/h inner solution flow rate, respectively. All three membranes showed obvious burst release of PDGF-bb in the first 2 days, and then the release behaviors were smoother and steadier. They all kept a fibrous morphology during the whole release period of 28 days. Studies on adhesion, proliferation and morphology of the vascular smooth muscle cells on the fibrous membranes of DEX/PLCL-1P, DEX/PLCL-2P and DEX/PLCL-3P, as well as PLCL and DEX/PLCL suggested that DEX/PLCL membranes containing PDGF-bb protected in the core of ultrafine fibers could positively promote cell attachment, and their cell activities were significantly higher than those of PLCL and DEX/PLCL membranes without PDGF-bb. The DEX/PLCL-2P membrane with fine core/shell structure of fibers would be the best choices for further applications.

PDGF-bb loaded in DEX/PLCL fibers shows continuous and stable release curve during subsequent 28-day release cycle after initial 2-day burst release, and promotes adhesion growth of vascular smooth muscle cells.
“The results showed that PDGF-bb loaded in DEX/PLCL fibers showed a continuous and stable release curve during the subsequent 28-day release cycle after the initial 2-day burst release. The adhesion growth of vascular smooth muscle cells cultured on the surface of the fibers was promoted [221].”

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.
