Abstract: | Tissue engineering primarily aimed to alleviate the insufficiency of organ donations worldwide. Nonetheless, the survival of the engineered tissue is often compromised due to the complexity of the natural organ architectures, especially the vascular system inside the organ, which allows food-waste transfer. Thus, vascularization within the engineered tissue is of paramount importance. A critical aspect of this endeavor is the ability to replicate the intricacies of the extracellular matrix and promote the formation of functional vascular networks within engineered constructs. In this study, human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cocultured in different types of gelatin methacrylate (GelMA). In brief, pro-angiogenic signaling growth factors (GFs), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF165) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), were conjugated onto GelMA via an EDC/NHS coupling reaction. The GelMA hydrogels conjugated with VEGF165 (GelMA@VEGF165) and bFGF (GelMA@bFGF) showed marginal changes in the chemical and physical characteristics of the GelMA hydrogels. Moreover, the conjugation of these growth factors demonstrated improved cell viability and cell proliferation within the hydrogel construct. Additionally, vascular-like network formation was observed predominantly on GelMA@GrowthFactor (GelMA@GF) hydrogels, particularly on GelMA@bFGF. This study suggests that growth factor-conjugated GelMA hydrogels would be a promising biomaterial for 3D vascular tissue engineering. |
