Highly porous hydroxyapatite (HA)/poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) nanofibrous scaffolds were prepared by incorporating needle-shaped nano- or micro-sized HA particles into PLLA nanofibers using electrospinning. The scaffolds had random or aligned fibrous assemblies and both types of HA particles were perfectly oriented along the fiber long axes. The biocompatibility and cell signaling properties of these scaffolds were evaluated by in vitro culture of rat osteosarcoma ROS17/2.8 cells on the scaffold surface. Cell morphology, viability and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity on each scaffold were examined at different time points. The HA/PLLA scaffolds exhibited higher cell viability and ALP activity than a pure PLLA scaffold. In addition, micro-sized HA particles supported cell proliferation and differentiation better than nano-sized ones in random scaffolds through a 10 day culture period and in aligned scaffolds at an early culture stage. The fibrous assembly of the scaffold had a pronounced impact on the morphology of the cells in direct contact with the scaffold surface, but not on cell proliferation and differentiation. Thus, HA/PLLA nanofibrous scaffolds could be good candidates for bone tissue engineering. (C) 2011 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
