235Polysaccharide-Based Biomaterials for Cell–Material Interface
Not only chitosan has demonstrated an enhancement on cell differentiation, but
other polysaccharides such as alginate,
103
cellulose,
104
and methacrylated hyaluronan
also promote cellular differentiation. Alginate-containing PCL nanobers showed
an increase in alkaline phosphatase and mineralization of pre-osteoblastic cells as
compared to PCL only scaffolds.
103
Cellulose-containing gelatin nanobers also
improved the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of human MSCs.
104
Lastly, a
mechanically tunable electrospun nanobrous scaffold prepared from methacrylated
hyaluronan inuenced the differentiation of human MSCs.

An enhancement in
chondrogenesis was observed on the softer ...
