Abstract
We manufactured poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) scaffolds impregnated demineralized bone particle(DBP) and hyaluronicacid(HA) by ice-particle leaching method and tested their ability of sustained release of brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF). BDNF(50 and 200 ng) mixed with PLGA, DBP/PLGA, HA/PLGA and DBP/HA/PLGA scaffold. The release profiles of BDNF from BDNF loaded scaffolds were assayed using ELISA. Morphological changes of scaffolds by BDNF release were also observed by SEM. BDNF stably and sustainedly released from DBP/HA/PLGA than from PLGA and DBP/PLGA scaffolds. DBP/HA/PLGA scaffolds showed the great structural changes, which demonstrated BDNF release amount from DBP/HA/PLGA scaffolds were highest in all groups. We suggest that BDNF loaded DBP/HA/PLGA scaffold would be very useful for nerve regeneration.
