- Abstract
- During the development of de novo synthesized cartilage tissue engineered constructs, transport and
biophysical properties are expected to change in time and space. Monitoring and control of the evolution
of these parameters are of crucial importance to process biohybrid constructs in vitro. The aim of this
work was to measure fluid and macromolecular transport and evolution of mechanical properties of
tissue-engineered cartilage constructs as a function of culture time and extracellular matrix (ECM)
production. It was found, in agreement with other literature reports, that mechanical and fluid transport
properties of the constructs correlated well with time of culture and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content.
Further, diffusion coefficients of 2 probes, dextran (500 kDa) and bovine serum albumin (BSA), correlated
well with GAG production. Diffusion coefficients (D) were measured with high spatial and temporal
resolution by fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP). Diffusivity steadily decreases with time
while it does not vary through the thickness of the specimen. On the basis of these results, an empirical
relationship between diffusion coefficient and GAG content was proposed for the 2 probes analyzed. The
results of this study provide useful information to optimize and control the tissue culture process in vitro. (literal)
