The aim of this study was to determine the cytocompatibility of poly (L-lactide) (PLLA) scaffolds fabricated using co-rotating twin screw extrusion technique and functionalized with different concentrations of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAp). The efforts were aimed on the designing bioactive scaffolds improving the viability and metabolic activity of human adipose-derived multipotent stromal cells (hASCs). The in vitro study was designed to determine the optimal nHAp concentration, based on analysis of hASCs morphology, adhesion rate, as well as metabolic and proliferative potential. Initially, the PLLA filled with three different concentrations of the nHAp were tested i.e. 5%, 10% and 15 wt%. The obtained results indicated that the 10 wt% nHAp in the PLLA (10% nHAp/PLLA) matrices improved the adhesion and proliferation of the hASCs, what was in good agreement with the results of tensile properties of the composites. Further, we performed profound studies regarding the cytotoxicity of 10% nHAp/PLLA. The analysis included the evaluation of the biomaterial influence on viability, apoptosis-related markers expression profile and mitochondrial function. The cytocompatibility of 10% nHAp/PLLA scaffolds toward the hASCs was confirmed. The hASCs propagated on 10% nHAp/PLLA were more viable then those propagated on the plain PLLA. The level of pro-apoptotic markers, i.e. caspase-3 and Bax in cultures on 10% nHAp/PLLA was significantly decreased. Obtained results correlated with higher mitochondrial membrane potential of hASCs in those cultures. The obtained composites may improve therapeutic potential of hASCs via directing their adhesion, enhancing proliferation and viability as well as increasing mitochondrial potential, thus may find potential application in tissue engineering.
