The meniscus is a fibrocartilaginous tissue that is very important for the stability of the knee joint. However, it has a low ability to heal itself, so damage to it will always lead to articular cartilage degeneration. The goal of this study was to make a new type of meniscus scaffold made of chitosan, loofah mat, and PHBV nanofibers, as well as to describe hydrogel composite scaffolds in terms of their shape, chemical composition, mechanical properties, and temperature. Three different concentrations of genipin (0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 %) were used and the optimal crosslinker concentration was 0.3 % for Chitosan/loofah (CL) and Chitosan/loofah/PHBV fiber (CLF). Scaffolds were seeded using undifferentiated MSCs and incubated for 21 days to investigate the chondrogenic potential of hydrogel scaffolds. Cell proliferation analyses were performed using WST-1 assay, GAG content was analyzed, SEM and fluorescence imaging observed morphologies and cell attachment, and histological and immunohistochemical studies were performed. The in vitro analysis showed no cytotoxic effect and enabled cells to attach, proliferate, and migrate inside the scaffold. In conclusion, the hydrogel composite scaffold is a promising material for engineering meniscus tissue.
