Effect of Biocomposite Material of Inorganic Gel and the VEGF on Morphology and Survival of Human Dermal Fibroblast Culture

Keywords: fibroblast culture, inorganic gels, scar, morphology, MTT assay, cell cycle

Biocomposite materials based on inorganic gels have a mesoporous structure which is potentially suitable for cell regulation and differentiation, taking into account the key role played by the VEGF in the processes of connective tissue remodeling. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of biocomposite material based on inorganic alumina gel and VEGF and its components on the morphology and survival of human dermal fibroblast culture. Materials and methods. the study used human dermal fibroblasts that were cultured on an inorganic gel, alumina, in a VEGF solution and their combination, after which an MTT assay was performed. the morphology of fibroblasts was evaluated in native cultures. in all cases, the VEGF concentration was 10 ng/ml. the distribution of cells by cell cycle phases was studied on a flow cytofluorometer. Results. Data on an insignificant effect of the inorganic gel on the morphology and survival of fibrocytes were obtained. However, when cultured on biocomposite material, the effects were more pronounced than the changes caused by VEGF addition, and consisted in an increase in morphological equivalents of synthetic activity and an increase in fibroblast survival, which is probably due to its mesoporous structure, which increases the presence of a cell in G1.
