    Bone defects as a common orthopedic disease lead to severe pains over a long period. Scaffolds are novel approaches in tissue engineering to treat bone problems and deal with their challenges. Here, 3D porous polyurethane (PU) scaffolds containing graphene oxide (GO) with different percentages (0, 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt%) were developed through a combination of freeze-drying and salt etching techniques for bone tissue engineering applications. The morphologies of scaffolds, physicochemical properties, the degree of crystallinity, and hydrophilicity were evaluated by SEM, FTIR, XRD, and water contact angle assay, respectively. The porosity, degradation behavior, compressive strength, and elastic modulus of 3D porous scaffolds were also determined. To assess the scaffold bioactivity, the morphology of the deposited calcium phosphate layer on the scaffold with macro-structure was evaluated by SEM images. The viability and adhesion of MG63 osteoblast-like cells cultured on the fabricated scaffolds were examined by MTT assay and SEM images, respectively. The results show that adding GO particles not only had no effect on the interconnectivity and porosity of 3D porous macroscopic structures of neat PU but also smaller and more uniformed microscopically pores were obtained. The crystallinity, water contact angle, and weight loss of scaffolds increased as the higher GO concentrations were employed. Followed by increasing GO contents from 0 to 0.5 wt%, the compressive strength and Young's modulus were increased by 232% and 245%, respectively. The bioactivity of scaffolds was fostered as GO concentration increased. Although, the MTT assay proved the biocompatibility of PU scaffolds containing 0.1 and 0.3 wt% GO, the samples loaded with 0.5 GO had a negative impact on the viability of MG63 cell lines. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates a high potential of PU scaffolds loaded with 0.1 and 0.3 wt% GO particles in bone tissue engineering applications.

    Fluorescence anisotropy cytosensing of folate receptor positive tumor cells using 3D polyurethane-GO-foams modified with folic acid: molecular dynamics and in vitro studies
    (NLM (Medline), 2023) Esmaeili, Yasaman; Mohammadi, Zahra; Khavani, Mohammad; Sanati, Alireza; Shariati, Laleh; Seyedhosseini Ghaheh, Hooria; Bidram, Elham; Zarrabi, Ali
    Integrated polyurethane (PU)-based foams modified with PEGylated graphene oxide and folic acid (PU@GO-PEG-FA) were developed with the goal of capturing and detecting tumor cells with precision. The detection of the modified PU@GO-PEG surface through FA against folate receptor-overexpressed tumor cells is the basis for tumor cell capture. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were applied to study the strength of FA interactions with the folate receptor. Based on the obtained results, the folate receptor has intense interactions with FA, which leads to the reduction in the FA interactions with PEG, and so decreases the fluorescence intensity of the biosensor. The synergistic interactions offer the FA-modified foams a high efficiency for capturing the tumor cell. Using a turn-off fluorescence technique based on the complicated interaction of FA-folate receptor generated by target recognition, the enhanced capture tumor cells could be directly read out at excitation-emission wavelengths of 380-450 nm. The working range is between 1×10 2 to 2×10 4 cells mL -1 with a detection limit of 25 cells mL -1 and good reproducibility with relative standard deviation of 2.35%. Overall, findings demonstrate that the fluorescence-based biosensor has a significant advantage for early tumor cell diagnosis. © 2023.

    Smartphone-assisted lab-in-a-tube device using gold nanocluster-based aptasensor for detection of MUC1-overexpressed tumor cells
    (Elsevier, 2023) Sanati, Alireza; Esmaeili, Yasaman; Khavani, Mohammad; Bidram, Elham; Rahimi, Azadeh; Dabiri, Arezou; Rafienia, Mohammad
    Developing smartphone technology for point-of-care diagnosis is one of the current favorable trends in the field of biosensors. In fact, using smartphones can provide better accessibility and facility for rapid diagnosis of diseases. On the other hand, the detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) is one of the recent methods for the early diagnosis of cancer. Here, a new smartphone-assisted lab-in-a-tube device is introduced for the detection of Mucin 1 (MUC1) overexpressed tumor-derived cell lines using gold nanoclusters (GNCs)-based aptasensor.
