Resumen:
Among three-dimensional (3D) scaffold fabrication methods, porous polymers templated using high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) have emerged as an attractive method due to the facile generation of interconnected porosity through a variety of synthetic routes. These include a bottom-up approach to selectively incorporate nanomaterials onto the inner walls in a nonaqueous environment. In this work, novel nonaqueous HIPEs made of different (meth)acrylate monomers and a deep eutectic solvent (DES) were formulated with nonfunctionalized nanohydroxyapatite (NHA), which also played the role of cosurfactant. Free radical polymerization of HIPEs yielded free-standing nanocomposites with 3D interconnected macroporosity and nonfunctionalized NHA selectively decorating the scaffolds’ inner surface. The influence of different polymer functionalities, acrylate or methacrylate, their alkyl tail length, and the presence of NHA on MC3T3-E1 preosteoblast cell proliferation in vitro, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity were evaluated. All materials presented promising biocompatibility, non-hemolytic activity, negligible inflammatory response along to remarkably enhanced cell proliferation (e.g., up to 160-fold cell proliferation increase compared with polystyrene plate) in vitro, which open the path for the development of scaffolds in regenerative medicine. It is noteworthy that polyHIPEs studied here were obtained using a green synthetic protocol where nonfunctionalized nanoparticles can be selectively incorporated into a scaffolds’ inner walls. This versatile technique allows for the simple construction of 3D bioactive nanocomposite scaffolds with varied compositions for cell culture. © 2021 Elsevier Inc.
