Minimally invasive implantation of a porous scaffold of large volume into bone defect site remains a challenge. Scaffolds based on shape memory polymer (SMP) show potential to be delivered in the compact form via minimally invasive surgery. The present study chooses poly (ε-caprolactone)-diols (PCL-diols) as the SMP to cross-link carboxyl dextran via ester bonds together with particle leaching method to yield a porous SMP scaffold. The inner surfaces of porous SMP scaffold are then mineralized via in situ precipitation to yield mineralized porous SMP-hydroxyapatite (SMP-HA) scaffold. The porous SMP-HA scaffold possesses pore size of 400–500 μm, with HA particles uniformly distributed and orientationally aligned on the inner surfaces of scaffold. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are carried out to identify the HA deposition. The phase transition temperature of the scaffold is adjusted to 38°C via changing the dosage of PCL (molecule weight: 2800) to endow the scaffold with shape deformation and fixed properties, as well as well-performed shape recovery property under body temperature. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) adhere on the inner surfaces of SMP-HA scaffold, exhibiting larger spreading area when compared to cells adhered on SMP scaffold without HA, promoting its osteogenesis. In vivo degradation showed that the scaffold degrades completely after 6 months post-implantation. At the same time, significant tissue and capillary invasion indicated that the present porous SMP-HA scaffold hold great promise towards bone tissue engineering applications.

In this study, poly(∊-caprolactone) (PCL), gelatin (GEL) and nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HAp) was applied to fabricate novel PCL-GEL-HAp nanaocomposite scaffolds through a new fabrication method. With the aim of finding the best fabrication method, after testing different methods and solvents, the best method and solvents were found, and the nanocomposites were prepared through layer solvent casting combined with freeze-drying. Acetone and distillated water were used as the PCL and GEL solvents, respectively. The mechanical test showed that the increasing of the PCL weight through the scaffolds caused the improvement of the final nanocomposite mechanical behavior due to the increasing of the ultimate stress, stiffness and elastic modulus (8 MPa for 0% wt PCL to 23.5 MPa for 50% wt PCL). The biomineralization investigation of the scaffolds revealed the formation of bone-like apatite layers after immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). In addition, the in vitro cytotoxity of the scaffolds using L929 mouse fibroblast cell line (ATCC) indicated no sign of toxicity. These results indicated that the fabricated scaffold possesses the prerequisites for bone tissue engineering applications.
