The present study was aimed to synthesize and characterize a bio-composite scaffold containing carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), zinc doped nano-hydroxyapatite (Zn-nHAp) and ascorbic acid (AC) for bone tissue engineering applications. The fabricated bio-composite scaffold was characterized by SEM, FT-IR and XRD analyses. The ability of scaffold along with a bioactive molecule, microRNA-15b (miR-15b) for osteo-differentiation at cellular and molecular levels was determined using mouse mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs). miR-15b acts as posttranscriptional gene regulator and regulates osteoblast differentiation. The scaffold and miR-15b were able to promote osteoblast differentiation; when these treatments were combined together on mMSCs, there was an additive effect on promotion of osteoblast differentiation. Thus, it appears that the combination of CMC/Zn-nHAp/AC scaffold with miR-15b would provide more efficient strategy for treating bone related defects and bone regeneration. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V.
