Abstract
ABSTRACTCellular orientation control is important for tissue regeneration. Design of oriented structures for cells with suitable features can be used in tissue engineering. One of the methods of cellular orientation with the aim of regenerating which damaged tissues is utilizing oriented biocompatible substrates. This paper reports a one-step method with different solvents to fabricate porous micropatterned polyhydroxybutyrate scaffold sheets. The results indicated that the porosity and pore morphology of the scaffolds are viable with respect to proliferation rate, and a micropattern for cell alignment. Stem cells culturing proved that the scaffold sheets are suitable for cell culturing. Preliminary experiments indicate that the 2-D scaffold sheets are very promising as basis for building 3-D scaffolds.
