    (Aims Press, 2016) Jiang, Jianhao; Ceylan, Muhammet; Zheng, Yi; Yao, Li; Asmatulu, Ramazan; Yang, Shang-You
    Poly-?-caprolactone (PCL) is a biodegradable aliphatic polyester which plays critical roles in tissue engineering, such as scaffolds, drug and protein delivery vehicles. PCL nanofiber meshes fabricated by electrospinning technology have been widely used in recent decade. The objective of this study intends to develop a gene-tethering PCL-nanofiber mesh that can be used as a wrapping material during surgical removal of primary bone tumors, and as a gene delivery tool to provide therapeutic means for tumor recurrence. Non-viral plasmid vector encoding green fluorescent protein (eGFP) was incorporated into PCL nanofibers by electron-spinning technique to form multilayer nano-meshes. Our data demonstrated that PCL nanofiber mesh possessed benign biocompatibility in vitro. More importantly, pCMVb-GFP plasmid-linked electrospun nanofiber mesh successfully released the GFP marker gene and incorporated into the co-cultured fibroblast cells, and consequently expressed the transgene product at transcriptional and translational levels. Further investigation is warranted to characterize the therapeutic influence and long-term safety issue of the PCL nanofiber mesh as a gene delivery tool and therapeutic device in orthopedic oncology

    Synthesis and evaluation of electrospun PCL-plasmid DNA nanofibers for post cancer treatments

    Poly-?-caprolactone (PCL) incorporated with plasmid DNA was electrospun, and the resultant nanofibers were used to observe DNA release from the nanofibers. The plasmid DNA enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) with cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter (PCMVb-GFP) was amplified with E. coli. PCL was chosen because it is biodegradable aliphatic polyester, which plays a critical role in tissue engineering, such as scaffolding, drug, DNA, gene and protein delivery vehicles. Some of the physical and biological properties of the nanofibers were determined using different methods. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs showed that nanofibers have an average diameter of about 100 nm. Cytotoxicity tests showed that cell viability for 1 day, 4 days, and 7 days of the tests were above 80 %. These data demonstrated that PCL-plasmid DNA nanofibers have no cytotoxicity and showed benign biocompatibility for biomedical applications. PCMVb-GFP plasmid-linked electrospun nanofibers continuously released double-stranded DNA for at least seven days. For the first 15 min, there was a burst release of about 1.8 ng/ml. For the following hours and days, the release was about to be the same (release of 0.575 ng/ml). Therefore, PCL nanofibers may be an ideal candidate for various biomedical applications such as cancer treatment, scaffolding, tissue engineering, and protein delivery vehicles.
