Abstract
![]()
Surface-initiated controlled
radical polymerization is a popular technique for the modification
of biomaterials with, for example, antifouling polymers. Here, we
report on the functionalization of a supramolecular biomaterial with
zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) via atom transfer radical
polymerization from a macroinitiator additive, which is embedded in
the hard phase of the ureido-pyrimidinone-based material. Poly(sulfobetaine
methacrylate) was successfully polymerized from these surfaces, and
the polymerized sulfobetaine content, with corresponding antifouling
properties, depended on both the macroinitiator additive concentration
and polymerization time. Furthermore, the polymerization from the
macroinitiator additive was successfully translated to functional
electrospun scaffolds, showing the potential for this functionalization
strategy in supramolecular material systems.

Abstract
![]()
Regulating
stem cell adhesion and growth onto functionalized biomaterial
scaffolds is an important issue in the field of tissue engineering
and regenerative medicine. In this study, new electrospun scaffolds
of poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA), as bioresorbable polymer,
and β-lactam compounds agonists of selected integrins, as functional
components with cell adhesive properties, are designed. The new β-lactam-PLLA
scaffolds contribute significantly in guiding protein translation
involved in human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSC) adhesion
and integrin gene expression. Scanning electron microscopy, confocal
laser scanning microscopy, and Western Blot analyses reveal that GM18-PLLA
shows the best results, promoting cell adhesion by significantly driving
changes in focal adhesion proteins distribution (β1 integrin and vinculin) and activation (pFAK), with a notable increase
of GM18-targets subunits integrin gene expression, α4 and β1. These novel functionalized submicrometric
fibrous scaffolds demonstrate, for the first time, the powerful combination
of selective β-lactams agonists of integrins with biomimetic
scaffolds, suggesting a designed rule that could be suitably applied
to tissue repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Biodegradable polycaprolactone (PCL) has been widely applied as a scaffold material in tissue engineering. However, the PCL surface is hydrophobic and adsorbs nonspecific proteins. Some traditional antifouling modifications using hydrophilic moieties have been successful but inhibit cell adhesion, which is not ideal for tissue engineering. The PCL surface is modified with bioinspired zwitterionic poly[2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl choline phosphate] (PMCP) via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization to improve cell adhesion through the unique interaction between choline phosphate (CP, on PMCP) and phosphate choline (PC, on cell membranes). The hydrophilicity of the PCL surface is significantly enhanced after surface modification. The PCL-PMCP surface reduces nonspecific protein adsorption (e.g., up to 91.7% for bovine serum albumin) due to the zwitterionic property of PMCP. The adhesion and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells on the modified surface is remarkably improved, and osteogenic differentiation signs are detected, even without adding any osteogenesis-inducing supplements. Moreover, the PCL-PMCP films are more stable at the early stage of degradation. Therefore, the PMCP-functionalized PCL surface promotes cell adhesion and osteogenic differentiation, with an antifouling background, and exhibits great potential in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Introducing or grafting molecules onto biomaterial surfaces to regulate cell destination via biophysical cues is one of the important steps for biomaterial design in tissue engineering. Understanding how cells feel the substrate makes it easier to learn the mechanism behind cell-material interaction. In this study, on a glass substrate, we constructed poly-phenoxyethyl methacrylate (PHEMA) brushes having different lengths via a surface-induced atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) method. FTIR-ATR and XPS tests of the formed polymer brushes indicate that these brushes have characteristic chemical structures of PHEMA; the polymer brush length revealed by the AFM tests increases linearly with reaction time. Cell lines of BMSCs, ATDC5, and human chondrocytes (HC) were cultured on these substrates to evaluate proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation. Our results demonstrated that the cells cultured on the substrates with short PHEMA brushes developed a spread morphology and organized actin fibers as compared to the cells cultured on those with long brushes. Different cell lines showed different responses depending on the PHEMA brush length. Cells cultured on long PHEMA brushes displayed a more rounded shape, higher gene expression of FAK and integrin, and lower gene expression of NCAM and N-cadherin as compared to those, especially ATDC5 cells, cultured on short PHEMA brushes. On PHEMA brushes with a long length, the cell lines express higher cartilage-specific genes including Sox9 and Col2 and GAG in ECM. The results suggest that polymer brushes having different lengths may interfere with the behavior of the cells cultured on them.
