There is no ideal material available for arterial bypass surgery. Herein, a fibroin and keratin porous membrane was prepared by electro-spinning and proposed for tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs). The purified fibroin (F) and keratin (K) were mixed in different weight ratios of 9-1 (FK91), 8-2 (FK82), and 7-3 (FK73) to obtain a membrane. The SEM images revealed that the electro-spinned membranes have a fibrous interconnected porous structure. The average diameter of the membrane F, FK91, FK82 and FK73 was 5.74 ± 1.04, 4.20 ± 1.19, 2.94 ± 0.81 and 2.27 ± 0.65 μm, respectively. The ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of F, FK91, FK82 and FK73 was 2.09 ± 0.06, 2.02 ± 0.06, 1.81 ± 0.10 and 1.74 ± 0.12 MPa, respectively. The contact angle of F, FK91, FK82 and FK73 was 72.55 ± 0.55°, 66.39 ± 0.90°, 43.47 ± 0.04°and 33.65 ± 2.83°, respectively. The wettability results were in agreement with those of the cell adhesion to the electro-spinning membranes. The attached HUVECs on the developed membranes showed no cytotoxicity. The immunocytochemistry staining and qPCR analysis showed that the phenotype of the keratin-fibroin membrane was not altered. The results of the ultimate tensile strength, cell adhesion and microstructure revealed that FK82 is similar to native vessels and could be considered as a potential material for TEVGs. ? 2016 The Royal Society of Chemistry. |
