Periodontitis is a worldwide chronic inflammatory disease, where surgical treatment still shows an uncertain prognosis. To break through the dilemma of periodontal treatment, we fabricated a three-dimensional (3D) multilayered scaffold by stacking and fixing electrospun polycaprolactone/gelatin (PCL/Gel) fibrous membranes. The biomaterial displayed good hydrophilic and mechanical properties. Besides, we found human periodontal ligament stem cell (hPDLSC) adhesion and proliferation on it. The following scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cytoskeleton staining results proved the guiding function of fibers to hPDLSCs. Then, we further analyzed periodontal regeneration-related proteins and mRNA expression between groups. In vivo results in a rat acute periodontal defect model confirmed that the topographic cues of materials could directly guide cellular orientation and might provide the prerequisite for further differentiation. In the aligned scaffold group, besides new bone regeneration, we also observed that angular concentrated fiber regeneration in the root surface of the defect is similar to the normal periodontal tissue. To sum up, we have constructed electrospun membrane-based 3D biological scaffolds, which provided a new treatment strategy for patients undergoing periodontal surgery.

D012333 RNA, Messenger RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm. Messenger RNA,Messenger RNA, Polyadenylated,Poly(A) Tail,Poly(A)+ RNA,Poly(A)+ mRNA,RNA, Messenger, Polyadenylated,RNA, Polyadenylated,mRNA,mRNA, Non-Polyadenylated,mRNA, Polyadenylated,Non-Polyadenylated mRNA,Poly(A) RNA,Polyadenylated mRNA,Non Polyadenylated mRNA,Polyadenylated Messenger RNA,Polyadenylated RNA,RNA, Polyadenylated Messenger,mRNA, Non Polyadenylated
