Interleukin-4-Loaded Gelatin Methacryloyl Hydrogel Promotes Subcutaneous Chondrogenesis of Engineered Auricular Cartilage in a Rabbit Model
Tissue engineering technology offers a promising solution for ear reconstruction; however, it faces the challenge of foreign body reaction and neocartilage malformation. This study investigates the impact of interleukin-4 (IL-4), an anti-inflammatory factor, on cartilage regeneration of hydrogel encapsulating autologous auricular chondrocytes in a rabbit subcutaneous environment. Initially, we assessed the influence of IL-4 on chondrocyte proliferation and determined the appropriate concentration using the CCK-8 test in vitro. Subsequently, we loaded IL-4 into gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel containing chondrocytes and measured its release profile through ELISA. The constructs were then implanted autologously into rabbits' subcutis, and after 3, 7, 14, and 28 days, cartilage matrix formation was evaluated by histological examinations, and gene expression levels were detected by qRT-PCR. Results demonstrated that IL-4 promotes chondrocyte proliferation in vitro, and maximum release from constructs occurred during the first week. In the rabbit subcutaneous implantation model, IL-4-loaded constructs (20 ng/mL) maintained a superior chondrocytic phenotype compared to controls with increased expression of anti-inflammatory factors. These findings highlight IL-4 as a potential strategy for promoting chondrogenesis in a subcutaneous environment and improving ear reconstruction.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research – Part B: Applied Biomaterials is a highly interdisciplinary peer-reviewed journal serving the needs of biomaterials professionals who design, develop, produce and apply biomaterials and medical devices. It has the common focus of biomaterials applied to the human body and covers all disciplines where medical devices are used. Papers are published on biomaterials related to medical device development and manufacture, degradation in the body, nano- and biomimetic- biomaterials interactions, mechanics of biomaterials, implant retrieval and analysis, tissue-biomaterial surface interactions, wound healing, infection, drug delivery, standards and regulation of devices, animal and pre-clinical studies of biomaterials and medical devices, and tissue-biopolymer-material combination products. Manuscripts are published in one of six formats:
• original research reports
• short research and development reports
• scientific reviews
• current concepts articles
• special reports
• editorials
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research – Part B: Applied Biomaterials is an official journal of the Society for Biomaterials, Japanese Society for Biomaterials, the Australasian Society for Biomaterials, and the Korean Society for Biomaterials. Manuscripts from all countries are invited but must be in English. Authors are not required to be members of the affiliated Societies, but members of these societies are encouraged to submit their work to the journal for consideration.
