“…The biofunctionality and regenerative capacity of collagen can be significantly improved by the addition of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) (Tierney et al, 2009). Scaffolds fabricated from copolymers of collagen and GAGs have been successfully applied in vitro and in vivo for skin, tendon, nerve, conjunctiva and more recently for bone and cartilage repair applications (Yannas and Burke, 1980, Louie et al, 1997, Chamberlain et al, 1998, Pieper et al, 2000, Hsu et al, 2000, Farrell et al, 2006, Lyons et al, 2010a.…”

“…Studies previously carried out 5 on cartilage regeneration have shown that GAGs are fundamental for presenting motifs for cell attachment and migration. In addition, GAGs have also been attributed to activating pathways that govern proliferation and differentiation as well as assembly of the ECM (Pieper et al, 2000, Banu and Tsuchiya, 2007, Wu et al, 2010, Correia et al, 2011. Specifically, chondroitin sulphate (CS) which is the main type of GAG in cartilage ECM has been shown to stimulate chondrogenesis in vitro and promotes cellular ingrowth and cartilaginous tissue formation in vivo (van Susante et al, 2001, Buma et al, 2003.…”

“…Chondroitin sulfate is polyanionic and thus readily interacts with proteins in the ECM and binds effector molecules such as growth factors and cytokines that influence cell metabolism. [15][16][17] It has also been reported to promote chondrocyte adhesion via enhancing the attachment of chondronectin to collagen. 18 Previous studies have shown that the covalent attachment of CS to collagen matrices stimulated significantly higher chondrocyte proliferation and cartilage formation compared to collagen-only matrices both in vitro and in vivo.…”

“…The thickness of the capsule could be used as an indicator of the biocompatibility of the material: biomaterials with poor biocompatibility are generally covered with thicker capsules, which restrict angiogenesis and integration. 30 We observed an enhanced foreign body reaction for the COL-USPIO scaffolds (a thicker capsule in MRI): the capsule from subcutaneous COL-USPIO implants was always thicker than the capsule from COL implants. This indicates that USPIO incorporation leads to a more severe inflammatory response, but there were no signs of iron oxide-related toxicity and it is very unlikely that the scaffolds contain amounts beyond their safety level (2.6 mg Fe/kg).…”
