Résumé
Cartilage tissue engineering gives the ability to product adaptable neocartilage to lesion with autologous cells. Our work aimed to develop a stratified scaffold with a simple and progressive spraying build-up to mimic articular cartilage environment. An Alginate/Hyaluronic Acid (Alg/HA) hydrogel seeded with human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSC) was construct by spray. First, cells repartition and actin organization were study with confocal microscopy. Then, we analyzed cells viability and finally, metabolic activity. Our results indicated a homogenous cells repartition in the hydrogel and a pericellular actin repartition. After 3 days of culture, we observed about 52% of viable cells in the scaffold. Then, from day 7 until the end of culture (D28), the proportion of living cells and their metabolic activity increased, what indicates that culture conditions are not harmful for the cells. We report here that sprayed method allowed to product a scaffold with hMSCs that confer a favorable environment for neocartilage construction: 3D conformation and ability of cells to increase their metabolic activity, therefore with few impact on hMSCs.
