Previously we have found that the immobilization of Type I collagen on the poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) hydrogel disc was effective in supporting adhesion and growth of the corneal epithelium and stromal cell in vitro. But the durability of the produced corneal epithelium layer in vivo has some problem. We hypothesized the cell construction force is much stronger than the force of the cell adhesion on the flat modified PVA surfaces. Therefore the improvement of mechanical anchoring force between the substrate and formed corneal cell layer maybe become one of the solving methods. In this study, we prepared the PVA nanofiber mat by using the electrospinning method and the surface modification of the PVA nanofiber was studied to improve the durability of the corneal epithelium layer. The collagen-immobilized PVA nanofiber sheets could support the adhesion and proliferation of rabbit corneal epithelial cells. And the stratified corneal epithelium structure was observed on the PVA nanofiber sheets when the epithelium was co-cultured with rabbit corneal stromal cells. It means that the corneal epithelium was well differentiated on the collagen immobilized PVA nanofiber sheet. The stability of the corneal epithelium layer on the PVA was dramatically improved; the stratified epithelium layer was kept for two weeks after the differentiation introduction, totally after one month. A light transmittance of these materials is not yet enough. Further study to improve the transmission of light, is required.

Purpose: In this study, a blend of synthetic polymer (poly(vinyl) alcohol), natural polymer (collagen type I from fish bone), and graphene oxide nanoparticles is used to fabricate a composite nanofibrous scaffold, by electrospinning, for their potential application in accelerated wound healing. Methods: The scaffold was characterized for its physicochemical and mechanical properties. In vitro studies were carried out using human keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT) which proved the biocompatibility of the scaffold. In vivo study using mice model was carried out and the healing pattern was evaluated using histopathological studies. Results: Scaffold prepared from poly(vinyl) alcohol, collagen type I from fish bone, and graphene oxide possessed better physicochemical and mechanical properties. In addition, in vivo and in vitro studies showed its accelerated wound healing properties. Conclusion: The scaffold with required strength and biocompatibility may be tried as a wound dressing material in large animals after getting necessary approval.

Today, tissue regeneration is one of the greatest challenges in the field of medicine, since it represents hope after accidents or illnesses. Tissue engineering is the science based on improving or restoring tissues and organs. In this work, five formulations of chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol)/graphene oxide (CS/PVA/GO) nanocomposites were studied for the development of biodegradable films with potential biomedical applications. The characterization of the films consisted of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The antibacterial activity was evaluated in vitro against Gram-positive bacteria Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli, by contact of the film above inoculum bacterial in Müeller–Hinton agar. On the other hand, in vivo tests in which the material implanted in the subcutaneous tissue of Wistar rats demonstrated that the formulation CS/PVA/GO (14.25:85:0.75) was the best antibacterial film with adequate degradation in vivo. All together, these results indicate the potential of the films using nanocomposites of CS/PVA/GO in tissue engineering and cell regeneration.

Introduction: Reconstruction of the abdominal wall with mesh is a widely used surgical procedure. The non-absorbable meshes tend to cause numerous side-effects. Aim: The aim of the author was to produce an absorbable, polymer-based mesh that possesses appropriate chemical, mechanical and biological properties. Method: A three-dimensional, biocompatible mesh was produced from poly-vinyl-alcohol using reactive electrospinning. Toxicity and cell-mesh interactions were tested using human lung carcinoma epithelial cells (A-549), and in vivo tests were conducted in 42 male Wistar rats at the 1–5, 7 and 14 postoperative days (3 rats/groups). Results: In the in vitro tests poly-vinyl-alcohol was biocompatible. In the in vivo tests no major complication was associated with the mesh made of poly-vinyl-alcohol. Conclusions: The author concludes that this polymer mesh is biocompatible, it does not damage the surrounding tissues and integrates well with them. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(5), 180–184.
