Research Abstract |
Novel fibrous materials with three dimensional structure were developed for use in the tissue engineering field. Ceramic particles releasing silicate ions, which have been reported to stimulate cell functions, were combined with biodegradable polymer to prepare fibrous materials enhancing cell proliferation and mineralization. The prepared fibrous materials showed flexibility and elasticity. Results of cell culture tests for the materials showed osteoblast-like cells proliferated inside of the fibrous structure of the materials.
