Abstract

In this study, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) was successfully immobilized on the poly(lactide-co-glycolide)/hydroxyapatite (PLGA/HA) and pure PLGA microcarriers via polydopamine (pDA). The results demonstrated that the pDA layer facilitated simple and highly efficient immobilization of peptides on the microcarriers within 20 min. Mouse adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) attachment and proliferation on IGF-1-immobilized microcarriers were much higher than non-immobilized ones. More importantly, the IGF-1-immobilized PLGA/HA microcarriers significantly increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and expression of osteogenesis-related genes of ADSCs. Therefore, it is considered that the IGF-1-decorated PLGA/HA microcarriers will be of great value in the bone tissue engineering.

Keywords: IGF-1; biodegradable PLGA microcarriers; bone tissue engineering; nano-hydroxyapatite; polydopamine.
