Article Engineering a Bilayered Scaffold as a Potential Cardiac Patch: From Scaffold Design to in Vitro Assessment(Springer Singapore Pte Ltd, 2025-11-24) Yuruk, Adile; Duzler, Ayhan; Isoglu, Sevil Dincer; Isoglu, Ismail AlperIn this study, we developed a novel bilayered scaffold consisting of a bottom layer composed of the Decellularized Bovine Pericardium (DP) coated with Polyaniline Nanoparticles (PANINPs) and a top layer made of an electrospun Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/Gelatin (PLGA/Gel) membrane incorporated with Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and hawthorn extract. Functionally, the DP supplies native Extracellular Matrix (ECM) components and mechanical support, while PANINPs provide conductivity. The electrospun PLGA/Gel layer mimics fibrous ECM. It incorporates bioactives, with VEGF promoting pro-angiogenic stimulation and hawthorn extract enhancing anticoagulant activity, as well as increasing surface hydrophilicity. The tissue adhesive ensures the interfacial integrity between the two layers. Decellularization efficiency was confirmed histologically using 4 ',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) and Hematoxylin-Eosin (H&E) staining. The DP exhibited a DNA content of 115.9 +/- 47.8 ng/mg DNA, compared to 982.88 +/- 395.42 ng/mg in Native Pericardium (NP). The PANINPs had an average particle size of 104.94 +/- 13.7 nm. The conductivity of PANINPs-coated decellularized pericardium was measured to be 9.093 +/- 8.6 x 10- 4 S/cm using the four-point probe method. PLGA/Gel membranes containing hawthorn extract (1%, 5%, 10%, and 15% w/v) and VEGF (0.1 mu g/mL, 0.5 mu g/mL, and 1 mu g/mL) were fabricated by electrospinning, resulting in fiber diameters between 850 and 1200 nm and pore sizes between 14 and 20 mu m. The anticoagulant efficiency of the membranes containing hawthorn extract reached 430 s in the Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time Assay (aPTT). Mechanical testing revealed a tensile strength of 22.70 +/- 6.33 MPa, an elongation of 53.58 +/- 10.63%, and Young's modulus of 0.67 +/- 0.10 MPa. The scaffold also exhibited over 91% cell viability and excellent cardiomyocyte adhesion. The hemolysis ratio was determined to be 0.421 +/- 0.191%, which confirms its blood compatibility. Our results indicate that the proposed bilayered scaffold can be a promising candidate for cardiac patch applications.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 15Preparation of Antibacterial Electrospun Poly(D, L-Lactide-co-Glycolide)/Gelatin Blend Membranes Containing Hypericum Capitatum Var. Capitatum(Taylor & Francis As, 2020-05-18) Aksit, Nazende Nur; Gurdap, Seda; Isoglu, Sevil Dincer; Isoglu, Ismail AlperIn this study, we fabricated poly(D, L-lactide-co-glycolide)/gelatin (PLGA/gelatin) membranes containing different amounts of Hypericum capitatum var. capitatum (HCC) extract (1, 5, 7.5, 10 wt%) by electrospinning technique. We investigated chemical, morphological, physical, and mechanical properties as well as in vitro degradation behavior of the electrospun membranes. We also evaluated the antibacterial activity of the electrospun membranes against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Viability, adhesion, and attachment of human fibroblast cells on the electrospun membranes on pre-set days were evaluated by the colorimetric CellTiter 96(R) AQueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay (MTS assay), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and 4',6-Diamidino-2-Phenylindole (DAPI) staining.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Preparation and Characterization of Viburnum Opulus Containing Electrospun Membranes as Antibacterial Wound Dressing(Korean Fiber Soc, 2023-09-22) Yuruk, Adile; Isoglu, Sevil Dincer; Isoglu, Ismail AlperHerein, we fabricated polycaprolactone/gelatin electrospun membranes possessing different amounts of Viburnum Opulus extract (0, 25, 35, 50%, w/v) as an antibacterial wound dressing. We investigated chemical, morphological, physical, and mechanical properties as well as in vitro degradation behavior of the electrospun membranes. The antibacterial activities of membranes were evaluated against gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli). The membranes containing Viburnum Opulus exhibited excellent antibacterial activity with the formation of inhibition zones of 25 mm to 36 mm against Escherichia coli and 14 mm to 25 mm against Staphylococcus aureus. The fiber diameters rose from 591 to 1222 nm after adding Viburnum Opulus extract. The extract-containing membranes displayed superior swelling, cell viability, and proliferation properties to neat membranes. Our results showed that the polycaprolactone/gelatin electrospun membranes containing Viburnum Opulus could be a suitable material for wound dressing applications.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Antibacterial Bilayered Skin Patches Made of HPMA and Quaternary Poly(4-Vinyl Pyridine)(Korean Fiber Soc, 2018-11) Isoglu, I. Alper; Demirkan, Cemre; Seker, Mine Gul; Tuzlakoglu, Kadriye; Isoglu, Sevil DincerThis study aimed to produce poly(4-vinyl pyridine) and hydroxypropyl methacrylamide (HPMA)-based bilayer wound dressings materials enhancing healing mechanism for the wounds which have self-healing problem and high infection risk. These materials were designed to protect wound from secondary traumas caused microorganism invasion and do not have toxic substance release problem. Synthesis of quaternary poly(4-vinyl pyridine) (poly(Q4-VP)) which is the antibacterial layer of wound dressing material was carried out in two stages. At first stage, poly(4-vinyl pyridine) polymer was synthesized from 4-vinyl pyridine monomer by free radical polymerization. Then, poly(Q4-VP) was synthesized from poly(4-VP) by alkylation reaction with 6-bromocaproic acid. Resulted polymer was structurally characterized by FT-IR. The macroporous spongy structure, as the lower layer of wound dressing material, was prepared by cryogelation of HPMA. Then, the antibacterial polymer was electrospun onto the cryogel structure and bilayered material was obtained. Cryogel structure, fiber morphology and layer integration was examined by SEM. In order to enhance wound healing process, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) was loaded to cryogel layer and release was followed by spectrophotometrically. The antimicrobial properties of the materials were examined against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans, respectively. According to the results, bilayered, antibacterial and antifungal against Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans, temporary wound dressings which can stimulate wound healing and have high swelling capacity were obtained successfully.
