To date, many researchers have studied a considerable number of three-dimensional (3D) cotton-like electrospun scaffolds for tissue engineering, including the generation of bone, cartilage, and skin tissue. Although numerous 3D electrospun fibrous matrixes have been successfully developed, additional research is needed to produce 3D patterned and sophisticated structures. The development of 3D fibrous matrixes with patterned and sophisticated structures (FM-PSS) capable of mimicking the extracellular matrix (ECM) is important for advancing tissue engineering. Because modulating nano to microscale features of the 3D fibrous scaffold to control the ambient microenvironment of target tissue cells can play a pivotal role in inducing tissue morphogenesis after transplantation in a living system. To achieve this objective, the 3D FM-PSSs were successfully generated by the electrospinning using a directional change of the sharply inclined array collector. The 3D FM-PSSs overcome the current limitations of conventional electrospun cotton-type 3D matrixes of random fibers.

A biocompatible scaffold is vital to implant device design, tissue engineering, and drug delivery. Previous work has shown smooth muscle cell and human umbilical vascular endothelial cell viability, adhesion, proliferation, and migration on coaxially electrospun scaffolds. For vascular applications, these electrospun scaffolds need to be non-thrombogenic, while simultaneously not completely inhibiting the platelets role in hemostasis and augmenting angiogenesis.[1] Therefore, platelet activity on electrospun scaffolds needs to be assessed. In this study, we fabricated coaxial electrospun nanofibers in both 1:1 and 3:1 (gelatin:polyvinyl alcohol, volumetric flow ratios), as well as scaffolds composed of either gelatin or polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Platelet deposition on the electrospun scaffolds was measured. Furthermore, the activity of human platelets on the electrospun scaffolds was assessed using a modified prothrombinase assay.[2]
