Preparation and in vitro release behavior of adiponectin microsphere-scaffold composite / 实用口腔医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To prepare a bone substitute using microsphere scaffold containing adiponectin(APN)and to investigate the release behavior of the scaffold in vitro.Methods:Chitosan microsphere was developed by an emulsion-ionic cross-linking method. Poly (L-lactic-co-glycolic)acid (PLGA)and β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP)were used to prepare microsphere scaffold containing APN.The morphology,particle size,drug loading,incorporation efficiency and release behavior of the microsphere were examined. Results:The APN containing microsphere showed good spherical geometry,suitable size and microporosity under scanning electron microscope.The average diameter of the milipore was 20 -200 μm;the drug loading and incorporation efficiency were 1 .3% and 70.3% respectively.The controled-release process continued for 91 days.The extract solution from the APN microsphere-scaffold promoted MC3T3 cell proliferation without cytotoxicity.Conclusion:The APN microsphere-scaffold has sustained release function and may promote osteoblast proliferation.
