Abstract
Wound healing in cases of excessive inflammation poses a significant challenge due to compromised neovascularization. Here, we propose a multi-functional composite hydrogel engineered to overcome such conditions through recruitment and activation of macrophages with adapted degradation of the hydrogel. The composite hydrogel (G-TSrP) is created by combining gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) and nanoparticles (TSrP) composed of tannic acid (TA) and Sr2+. These nanoparticles are prepared using a one-step mineralization process assisted by metal-phenolic network formation. G-TSrP exhibits the ability to eliminate reactive oxygen species and direct polarization of macrophages toward M2 phenotype. It has been observed that the liberation of TA and Sr2+ from G-TSrP actively facilitate the recruitment and up-regulation of the expression of extracellular matrix remodeling genes of macrophages, and thereby, coordinate in vivo adapted degradation of the G-TSrP. Most significantly, G-TSrP accelerates angiogenesis despite the TA's inhibitory properties, which are counteracted by the released Sr2+. Moreover, G-TSrP enhances wound closure under inflammation and promotes normal tissue formation with strong vessel growth. Genetic analysis confirms macrophage-mediated wound healing by the composite hydrogel. Collectively, these findings pave the way for the development of biomaterials that promote wound healing by creating regenerative environment.

Abstract
The disruption of thyroid hormones because of chemical exposure is a significant societal problem. Chemical evaluations of environmental and human health risks are conventionally based on animal experiments. However, owing to recent breakthroughs in biotechnology, the potential toxicity of chemicals can now be evaluated using 3D cell cultures. In this study, the interactive effects of thyroid-friendly soft (TS) microspheres on thyroid cell aggregates are elucidated and their potential as a reliable toxicity assessment tool is evaluated. Using state-of-the-art characterization methods coupled with cell-based analysis and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry, it is shown that TS-microsphere-integrated thyroid cell aggregates exhibit improved thyroid function. Specifically, the responses of zebrafish embryos, which are used for thyroid toxicity analysis, and the TS-microsphere-integrated cell aggregates to methimazole (MMI), a known thyroid inhibitor, are compared. The results show that the thyroid hormone disruption response of the TS-microsphere-integrated thyroid cell aggregates to MMI is more sensitive compared with those of the zebrafish embryos and conventionally formed cell aggregates. This proof-of-concept approach can be used to control cellular function in the desired direction and hence evaluate thyroid function. Thus, the proposed TS-microsphere-integrated cell aggregates may yield new fundamental insights for advancing in vitro cell-based research.

Abstract
Numerous methods have been introduced to produce 3D cell cultures that can reduce the need for animal experimentation. This study presents a unique 3D culture platform that features bioinspired strands of electrospun nanofibers (BSeNs) and aquatic cell lines to compensate for shortcomings in the current cell spheroid generation techniques. The use of BSeNs in 3D zebrafish liver cell cultures is found to improve liver and reproductive functions through spheroid-based in vitro assays such as whole transcriptome sequencing and reproductive toxicity testing, with optimized properties exhibiting results similar to those obtained for fish embryo acute toxicity (FET, OECD TG 236) following exposure to environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals (17β-Estradiol (E2), 4-hydroxytamoxifen (4-HT), and bisphenol compounds (bisphenol A (BPA) and 9,9-Bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)fluorene (BPFL)). These findings indicate that the beneficial effects of bioinspired materials that closely mimic ECM environments can yield efficient zebrafish cells with intrinsic functions and xenobiotic metabolism similar to those of zebrafish embryos. As a closer analog for the in vivo conditions that are associated with exposure to potentially hazardous chemicals, the straightforward culture model introduced in this study shows promise as an alternative tool that can be used to further eco-environmental assessment.

Abstract
Developing a universal culture platform that manipulates cell fate is one of the most important tasks in the investigation of the role of the cellular microenvironment. This study focuses on the application of topographical and electrical field stimuli to human myogenic precursor cell (hMPC) cultures to assess the influences of the adherent direction, proliferation, and differentiation, and induce preconditioning-induced therapeutic benefits. First, a topographical surface of commercially available culture dishes was achieved by femtosecond laser texturing. The detachable biphasic electrical current system was then applied to the hMPCs cultured on laser-textured culture dishes. Laser-textured topographies were remarkably effective in inducing the assembly of hMPC myotubes by enhancing the orientation of adherent hMPCs compared with flat surfaces. Furthermore, electrical field stimulation through laser-textured topographies was found to promote the expression of myogenic regulatory factors compared with nonstimulated cells. As such, we successfully demonstrated that the combined stimulation of topographical and electrical cues could effectively enhance the myogenic maturation of hMPCs in a surface spatial and electrical field-dependent manner, thus providing the basis for therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The utilization of cell-manipulating techniques reveals information about biological behaviors suited to address a wide range of questions in the field of life sciences. Here, we introduced an on/off switchable physical stimuli technique that offers precise stimuli for reversible cell patterning to allow regulation of the future direction of adherent cellular behavior by leveraging enzymatically degradable alginate hydrogels with defined chemistry and topography. As a proof of concept, targeted muscle cells adherent to TCP exhibited a reshaped structure when the hydrogel-based physical stimuli were applied. This simple tool offers easy manipulation of adherent cells to reshape their morphology and to influence future direction depending on the characteristics of the hydrogel without limitations of time and space. The findings from this study are broadly applicable to investigations into the relationships between cells and physiological extracellular matrix environments as well as has potential to open new horizons for regenerative medicine with manipulated cells.

Abstract
Posterior capsular opacification (PCO) is the most common complication of cataract surgery. PCO is due to the proliferation, migration, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition of the residual lens epithelial cells (LECs) within the lens capsule. As surface topography influences cellular response, we investigated the effect of modulating the dimensions of periodic nano-textured patterns on the surface of an intraocular lens material to regulate lens epithelial cell functions such as cell adhesion, migration, orientation, and proliferation. Patterned poly(HEMA) samples were prepared by a femtosecond laser microfabrication, and the behaviors of human B-3 LECs were observed on groove/ridge patterns with widths varying from 5 to 40 µm. In the presence of ridge and groove patterns, the adherent cells elongated along the direction of the patterns, and f-actin of the cells was spread to a lesser extent on the nano-textured groove surfaces. Both single and collective cell migrations were significantly inhibited in the perpendicular direction of the patterns on the nano-textured micro-patterned samples. We also fabricated the patterns on the curved surface of a commercially available intraocular lens for in vivo evaluation. In vivo results showed that a patterned IOL could help suppress the progression of PCO by inhibiting cell migration from the edge to the center of the IOL. Our reports demonstrate that nano- and microscale topographical patterns on a biomaterial surface can regulate cellular behavior when it is implanted into animals.

Abstract
The native extracellular matrix (ECM) can exhibit heterogeneous nano-sequences periodically displaying ligands to regulate complex cell-material interactions in vivo. Herein, an ECM-emulating heterogeneous barcoding system, including ligand-bearing Au and ligand-free Fe nano-segments, is developed to independently present tunable frequency and sequences in nano-segments of cell-adhesive RGD ligand. Specifically, similar exposed surface areas of total Fe and Au nano-segments are designed. Fe segments are used for substrate coupling of nanobarcodes and as ligand-free nano-segments and Au segments for ligand coating while maintaining both nanoscale (local) and macroscale (total) ligand density constant in all groups. Low nano-ligand frequency in the same sequences and terminally sequenced nano-ligands at the same frequency independently facilitate focal adhesion and mechanosensing of stem cells, which are collectively effective both in vitro and in vivo, thereby inducing stem cell differentiation. The Fe/RGD-Au nanobarcode implants exhibit high stability and no local and systemic toxicity in various tissues and organs in vivo. This work sheds novel insight into designing biomaterials with heterogeneous nano-ligand sequences at terminal sides and/or low frequency to facilitate cellular adhesion. Tuning the electrodeposition conditions can allow synthesis of unlimited combinations of ligand nano-sequences and frequencies, magnetic elements, and bioactive ligands to remotely regulate numerous host cells in vivo.

Abstract
Biodegradable metallic materials represent a potential step-change technology that may revolutionize the treatment of broken bones. Implants made with biodegradable metals are significantly stronger than their polymer counterparts and fully biodegradable in vivo, removing the need for secondary surgery or long-term complications. Here, it is shown how clinically approved Mg alloy promotes improved bone repair using an integrated state of the art fetal mouse metatarsal assay coupled with in vivo preclinical studies, second harmonic generation, secretome array analysis, perfusion bioreactor, and high-resolution 3D confocal imaging of vasculature within skeletal tissue, to reveal a vascular-mediated pro-osteogenic mechanism controlling enhanced tissue regeneration. The optimized mechanical properties and corrosion rate of the Mg alloy lead to a controlled release of metallic Mg, Ca, and Zn ions at a rate that facilitates both angiogenesis and coupled osteogenesis for better bone healing, without causing adverse effects at the implantation site. The findings from this study support ongoing development and refinement of biodegradable metal systems to act as crucial portal technologies with significant potential to improve many clinical applications.

Abstract
Developing materials with remote controllability of macroscale ligand presentation can mimic extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling to regulate cellular adhesion in vivo. Herein, we designed charged mobile nanoligands with superparamagnetic nanomaterials amine-functionalized and conjugated with polyethylene glycol linker and negatively charged RGD ligand. We coupled negatively a charged nanoligand to a positively charged substrate by optimizing electrostatic interactions to allow reversible planar movement. We demonstrate the imaging of both macroscale and in situ nanoscale nanoligand movement by magnetically attracting charged nanoligand to manipulate macroscale ligand density. We show that in situ magnetic control of attracting charged nanoligand facilitates stem cell adhesion, both in vitro and in vivo, with reversible control. Furthermore, we unravel that in situ magnetic attraction of charged nanoligand stimulates mechanosensing-mediated differentiation of stem cells. This remote controllability of ECM-mimicking reversible ligand variations is promising for regulating diverse reparative cellular processes in vivo.

Abstract
The cytotoxicity of alloying elements in newly developed biodegradable metals can be assessed through relatively low-cost and rapid in vitro studies using different cell types. However, such approaches have limitations; as such, additional investigations in small mammalian models are required that recapitulate the physiological environment. In this study, we established a zebrafish (Danio rerio) model for cytotoxicity evaluations that combines the physiological aspects of an animal model with the speed and simplicity of a cell-based assay. The model was used to assess the cytotoxicity of five common alloying elements in biodegradable implant materials. Conventional in vitro testing using heart, liver, and endothelial cell lines performed in parallel with zebrafish studies revealed statistically significant differences in toxicity (up to 100-fold), along with distinct changes in the morphology of the heart, liver, and blood vessels that were undetectable in cell cultures. These results indicate that our zebrafish model is a useful alternative to mammalian systems for accurately and rapidly evaluating the in vivo toxicity of newly developed metallic materials.

Abstract
Protecting spacecraft crews from energetic space radiations that pose both chronic and acute health risks is a critical issue for future missions beyond low Earth orbit (LEO). Chronic health risks are possible from both galactic cosmic ray and solar energetic particle event (SPE) exposures. However, SPE exposures also can pose significant short term risks including, if dose levels are high enough, acute radiation syndrome effects that can be mission- or life-threatening. In order to address the reduction of short term risks to spaceflight crews from SPEs, we have developed recommendations to NASA for a design-standard SPE to be used as the basis for evaluating the adequacy of proposed radiation shelters for cislunar missions beyond LEO. Four SPE protection requirements for habitats are proposed: (1) a blood-forming-organ limit of 250 mGy-equivalent for the design SPE; (2) a design reference SPE environment equivalent to the sum of the proton spectra during the October 1989 event series; (3) any necessary assembly of the protection system must be completed within 30 min of event onset; and (4) space protection systems must be designed to ensure that astronaut radiation exposures follow the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle.

Abstract
Electrospinning has been used for the fabrication of extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimicking fibrous scaffolds for several decades. Electrospun fibrous scaffolds provide nanoscale/microscale fibrous structures with interconnecting pores, resembling natural ECM in tissues, and showing a high potential to facilitate the formation of artificial functional tissues. In this review, we summarize the fundamental principles of electrospinning processes for generating complex fibrous scaffold geometries that are similar in structural complexity to the ECM of living tissues. Moreover, several approaches for the formation of three-dimensional fibrous scaffolds arranged in hierarchical structures for tissue engineering are also presented.

Abstract
Although the coculture of multiple cell types has been widely employed in regenerative medicine, in vivo transplantation of cocultured cells while maintaining the hierarchical structure remains challenging. Here, a spatially assembled bilayer cell sheet of human mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells on a thermally expandable hydrogel containing fibronectin is prepared and its effect on in vitro proangiogenic functions and in vivo ischemic injury is investigated. The expansion of hydrogels in response to a temperature change from 37 to 4 °C allows rapid harvest and delivery of the bilayer cell sheet to two different targets (an in vitro model glass surface and in vivo tissue). The in vitro study confirms that the bilayer sheet significantly increases proangiogenic functions such as the release of nitric oxide and expression of vascular endothelial cell genes. In addition, transplantation of the cell sheet from the hydrogels into a hindlimb ischemia mice model demonstrates significant retardation of necrosis particularly in the group transplated with the bilayer sheet. Collectively, the bilayer cell sheet is readily transferrable from the thermally expandable hydrogel and represents an alternative approach for recovery from ischemic injury, potentially via improved cell-cell communication.

Abstract
Implanted material surfaces make direct contact with body tissues to work on its own purpose. Therefore, studies of the surface properties of implantable materials that determine cell fate are very important for successful implantation. Although numerous studies have addressed the relationship between cells and material surfaces, nonmetallic surfaces and metallic surfaces likely produce different cellular responses because of their intrinsic differences in surface energy, roughness, and chemical composition. Moreover, given the nontransparent property of metal materials, which hampers the real-time imaging of cellular behavior, a detailed cellular-level analysis at the metal-tissue interface has not been performed. In this study, metal-based cell culture platforms (MCPs) with defined microscale topographical patterns are developed using a combination of photolithography and direct current magnetron sputtering techniques. The MCPs allow to observe vascular cells on metals in real time and identify the selective regulation of human aortic smooth muscle cells and Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by metallic surface topography. Additionally, atomic force microscopy, contact angles, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses show that the MCPs exhibit nearly identical chemical properties with their bulk counterparts, demonstrating that MCPs can be utilized as an in vitro cell culture platform system for understanding the cellular behavior on metal substrates.

Abstract
Developing an artificial extracellular matrix that closely mimics the native tissue microenvironment is important for use as both a cell culture platform for controlling cell fate and an in vitro model system for investigating the role of the cellular microenvironment. Electrospinning, one of the methods for fabricating structures that mimic the native ECM, is a promising technique for creating fibrous platforms. It is well-known that align or randomly distributed electrospun fibers provide cellular contact guidance in a single pattern. However, native tissues have hierarchical structures, i.e., topographies on the micro- and nanoscales, rather than a single structure. Thus, we fabricated randomly distributed nanofibrous (720 ± 80 nm in diameter) platforms via a conventional electrospinning process, and then we generated microscale grooves using a femtosecond laser ablation process to develop engineered fibrous platforms with patterned hierarchical topographies. The engineered fibrous platforms can regulate cellular adhesive morphology, proliferation, and distinct distribution of focal adhesion proteins. Furthermore, confluent myoblasts cultured on the engineered fibrous platforms revealed that the direction of myotube assembly can be controlled. These results indicate that our engineered fibrous platforms may be useful tools in investigating the roles of nano- and microscale topographies in the communication between cells and ECM.

Abstract
Natural vessel has three types of concentric cell layers that perform their specific functions. Here, the fabrication of vascular structure is reported by transfer printing of three different cell layers using thermosensitive hydrogels. Tetronic-tyramine and RGD peptide are co-crosslinked to prepare cell adhesive and thermosensitive hydrogels. The hydrogel increases its diameter by 1.26 times when the temperature reduces from 37 °C to 4 °C. At optimized seeding density, three types of cells form monolayers on the hydrogel, which is then transferred to the target surface within 3 min. Three monolayers are simultaneously transferred on one substrate with controlled shape and arrangement. The same approach is applied onto nanofiber scaffolds that are cultured for more than 5 d. Every type of monolayer shows proliferation and migration on nanofiber scaffolds, and the formation of robust cell-cell contact is revealed by CD31 staining in endothelial cell layer. A vascular structure with multicellular components is fabricated by transfer of three monolayers on nanofibers that are manually rolled with the diameter and length of the tube being approximately 3 mm and 12 mm, respectively. Collectively, it is concluded that the tissue transfer printing is a useful tool for constructing a vascular structure and mimicking natural structure of different types of tissues.

Abstract
Synthetic substrates with defined chemical and structural characteristics may potentially be prepared to mimic the living ECM to regulate cell adhesion and growth. Hydrogels with cell-adhesive peptides (0.28 ± 0.03 nmol peptide cm(-2) , TTA-R-0.5; and 0.91 ± 0.12 nmol peptide cm(-2) , TTA-R-2.0) and/or micro-scaled topographical patterns (10, 25, and 80 µm grooves) are prepared using enzymatic polymerization. The adherent morphology and proliferation of C2C12 skeletal myoblasts and human aortic smooth muscle cells (hAoSM) on the hydrogels are studied. The newly developed hydrogels may be useful in investigating the roles of cell adhesion and substrate surface properties in the communication of adherent cells with the ECM.

Abstract
In this study, we introduced a simple method for polydopamine-mediated immobilization of dual bioactive factors for the preparation of functionalized vascular graft materials. Polydopamine was deposited on elastic and biodegradable poly(lactic acid-co-ɛ-caprolactone) (PLCL) films, and a cell adhesive RGD-containing peptide and basic fibroblast growth factor were subsequently immobilized by simple dipping. We used an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and fluorescamine assay to confirm that we had stably immobilized bioactive molecules on the polydopamine-coated PLCL film in a reaction time-dependent manner. When human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were cultured on the prepared substrates, the number of adherent cells and proliferation of HUVEC for up to 14 days were greatest on the film immobilized with dual factors. On the other hand, the film immobilized with RGD peptide exhibited the highest migration speed compared to the other groups. The expression of cluster of differentiation 31 and von Willebrand factor, which indicates maturation of endothelial cells, was highly stimulated in the dual factor-immobilized group, and passively adsorbed factors showed a negligible effect. The immobilization of bioactive molecules inspired by polydopamine was successful, and adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation of HUVEC were synergistically accelerated by the presence of multiple signaling factors. Collectively, our results have demonstrated that a simple coating with polydopamine enables the immobilization of multiple bioactive molecules for preparation of polymeric functionalized vascular graft materials.

Abstract
PURPOSE To demonstrate the results of the ray tracing-type aberrometer in measuring spherical aberration (SA) in pseudophakic eyes with monofocal intraocular lens (IOL), aspheric monofocal IOL, or aspheric diffractive multifocal IOL. METHODS Total, corneal, and internal SA were measured using iTrace at a 6-mm pupil size in 27 eyes of 27 patients implanted with a monofocal spherical IOL (group 1: Natural, SN60AT), 30 eyes of 30 patients implanted with a monofocal aspheric IOL (group 2: IQ, SN60WF), and 30 eyes of 30 patients implanted with a multifocal aspheric IOL (group 3: ReSTOR, SN6AD1) at 3 months after cataract surgery. We compared the internal SAs of these IOLs in pupil sizes of 3, 4, 5, and 6 mm. RESULTS There were no demographic statistically significant differences among the groups. The internal SA of group 1 had a positive value. The internal SA of group 2 was -0.175 ± 0.135 μm in 5-mm pupils and -0.227 ± 0.253 μm in 6-mm pupils. The internal SA of group 3 was -0.072 ± 0.128 μm in 5-mm pupils and -0.173 ± 0.231 μm in 6-mm pupils. CONCLUSION Measuring internal SA with iTrace yields relatively accurate results in all types of IOLs with adequate pupil sizes.

Abstract
The in situ formation of membranes in microfluidic channels has been given attention because of their great potential in the separation of components, cell culture support for tissue engineering, and molecular transport for generation of chemical gradients. Among these, the porous membranes in microchannels are vigorously applied to generate stable chemical gradients for chemotaxis-dependent cell migration assays. Previous work on the in situ fabrication of membranes for generating the chemical gradient, however, has had several disadvantages, such as fluid leaking, uncontrollable membrane thickness, need of extra equipment, and difficulty in realizing stable interfacial layers. In this paper, we report a novel technique for the in situ formation of membranes within microchannels using enzymatically crosslinkable hydrogels and microfluidic techniques. The thickness of the membrane can be controlled quantitatively by adjusting the crosslinking reaction time and velocity of the microfluidics. By using these techniques, parallel dual hydrogel membranes were prepared within microchannels and these were used for the generation of stable concentration gradients. Moreover, the migration of Salmonella typhimurium was monitored to validate the efficacy of the chemical gradients. These results suggest that our in situ membrane system can be used as a simple platform to understand many cellular activities, including cell adhesion and migration directed by chemotaxis or complex diffusions from biological fluids in three-dimensional microstructures.

Abstract
Blends of PAni and PLCL are electrospun to prepare uniform fibers for the development of electrically conductive, engineered nerve grafts. PC12 cell viability is significantly higher on RPACL fibers than on PLCL-only fibers, and the electrical conductivity of the fibers affects the differentiation of PC12 cells; the number of cells positively-stained and their expression level are significantly higher on RPACL fibers. PC12 cell bodies display an oriented morphology with outgrowing neurites. On RPACL fibers, the expression level of paxillin, cdc-42, and rac is positively affected and proteins including RhoA and ERK exist as more activated state. These results suggest that electroactive fibers may hold promise as a guidance scaffold for neuronal tissue engineering.

Abstract
Development of biomaterials to control the fate of stem cells is important for stem cell based regeneration of bone tissue. The objective of this study is to develop functionalized electrospun fibers using a mussel-inspired surface coating to regulate adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). We prepared poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) fibers coated with polydopamine (PD-PLLA). The morphology, chemical composition, and surface properties of fiber were characterized by SEM, AFM, XPS, Raman spectra and water contact angle measurements. Incubation of fibers in dopamine solution for 1h resulted in formation of polydopamine with only negligible effects on the roughness and hydrophobicity of the fibers. However, PD-PLLA fibers modulated hMSC responses in several aspects. Firstly, adhesion and proliferation of hMSCs cultured on PD-PLLA were significantly enhanced relative to those on PLLA. In addition, the ALP activity of hMSCs cultured on PD-PLLA (1.74±0.14 nmole/DNA/30 min) was significantly higher than on PLLA (0.97±0.07 nmole/DNA/30 min). hMSCs cultured on PD-PLLA showed up-regulation of genes associated with osteogenic differentiation as well as angiogenesis. Furthermore, the calcium deposition from hMSCs cultured on PD-PLLA (41.60±1.74 μg) was significantly greater than that on PLLA (30.15±1.21 μg), which was double-confirmed by alizarin red S staining. Our results suggest that the bio-inspired coating synthetic degradable polymer can be used as a simple technique to render the surface of synthetic biodegradable fibers to be active for directing the specific responses of hMSCs.

Abstract
In this study, novel fibrous matrices were developed as a depot to store and liberate growth factors in a controlled manner. Specifically, heparin was covalently conjugated onto the surface of fibrous matrices (composites of poly[caprolactone] and gelatin crosslinked with genipin), and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was then reversibly immobilized. The immobilization of bFGF was controlled as a function of the amount of conjugated heparin. The sustained release of bFGF from the fibrous matrices was successfully achieved over 4 weeks whereas physical adsorption of bFGF released quickly. The bFGF released from the fibrous matrices significantly enhanced in vitro proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. From the in vivo study, the group implanted with a higher amount of immobilized bFGF significantly facilitated neo-blood vessel formation as compared with other implantation groups. These results indicate that the sustained release of bFGF is important for the formation of blood vessels and that our fibrous matrices could be useful for regulation of tissue damage requiring angiogenesis. Further, our system can be combined with other growth factors with heparin binding domains, representing a facile depot for spatiotemporal control over the delivery of bioactive molecules in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Composite nanofibers of poly(caprolactone) (PCL) and gelatin crosslinked with genipin are prepared. The contact angles and mechanical properties of crosslinked PCL-gelatin nanofibers decrease as the gelatin content increases. The proliferation of myoblasts is higher in the crosslinked PCL-gelatin nanofibers than in the PCL nanofibers, and the formation of myotubes is only observed on the crosslinked PCL-gelatin nanofibers. The expression level of myogenin, myosin heavy chain, and troponin T genes is increased as the gelatin content is increased. The results suggest that PCL-gelatin nanofibers crosslinked with genipin can be used as a substrate to modulate proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts, presenting potential applications in muscle tissue engineering.
