Mesenchymal adipose stromal cells (ASCs) are considered the most promising and accessible material for translational medicine. ASCs can be used independently or within the structure of scaffold-based constructs, as these not only ensure mechanical support, but can also optimize conditions for cell activity, as specific features of the scaffold structure have an impact on the vital activity of the cells. This manuscript presents a study of the secretion and accumulation that occur in a conditioned medium during the cultivation of human ASCs within the structure of such a partial skin-equivalent that is in contact with it.

Hybrid porous polymers based on poly-EGDMA and polylactide containing vancomycin, the concentration of which in the polymer varied by two orders of magnitude, were synthesized. The processes of polymer biodegradation and vancomycin release were studied in the following model media: phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), trypsin-Versene solution, and trypsin-PBS solution. The maximum antibiotic release was recorded during the first 3 h of extraction.

This article provides the results of a study of the interaction of placental growth factor with adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) of various origins, as well as the possibility of generating osteoplastic material based on xenogeneic matrix functionalization with human placental growth factor (PLGF). It is demonstrated that the greatest release of this factor from the functionalized material into the medium occurs during the first 3 h of contact with the model medium, but then the levels of the factor being released fall sharply, although release did continue throughout the 7 days of observation. The modified material was not cytotoxic, and its surface provided good cell adhesion.

The demand for regenerative medicine products is growing rapidly in clinical practice. Unfortunately, their use has certain limitations. One of these, which significantly constrains the widespread distribution and commercialization of such materials, is their short life span.

Collagen is a suitable material for regenerative medicine because it is characterized by its good biocompatibility. However, due to its fibrillar structure, it cannot organize itself into three-dimensional porous structures without additional modification. The introduction of synthetic monomer elements into the collagen macromolecules is a technique used to form three-dimensional, collagen-based, branched, and crosslinked structures.
