Incorporation of decellularized-ECM in graphene-based scaffolds enhances axonal outgrowth and branching in neuro-muscular co-cultures.
Peripheral nerve and large-scale muscle injuries result in significant disability, necessitating the development of biomaterials that can restore functional deficits by promoting tissue regrowth in an electroactive environment. Among these materials, graphene is favored for its high conductivity, but its low bioactivity requires enhancement through biomimetic components. In this study, we extrusion printed graphene-poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (graphene) lattice scaffolds, aiming to increase bioactivity by incorporating decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) derived from mouse pup skeletal muscle. We first evaluated these scaffolds using human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived motor neurons co-cultured with supportive glia, observing significant improvements in axon outgrowth. Next, we tested the scaffolds with C2C12 mouse and human primary myoblasts, finding no significant differences in myotube formation between dECM-graphene and graphene scaffolds. Finally, using a more complex hiPSC-derived 3D motor neuron spheroid model co-cultured with human myoblasts, we demonstrated that dECM-graphene scaffolds significantly improved axonal expansion towards peripheral myoblasts and increased axonal network density compared to graphene-only scaffolds. Features of early neuromuscular junction formation were identified near neuromuscular interfaces in both scaffold types. These findings suggest that dECM-graphene scaffolds are promising candidates for enhancing neuromuscular regeneration, offering robust support for the growth and development of diverse neuromuscular tissues.
