OBJECTIVE: To prepare the compound biodegradable matrices, polyglycolic acid (PGA), polylactic acid (PLA) mesh and poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate(PHB) which precoated with collagen, and to observe the growth and differentiation of bovine vascular endothelial cells on these scaffolds. METHODS: By enzymatic digestion methods, bovine vascular endothelial cell (VEC) were isolated from calf thoracic aorta, then cultured and purified. PGA, PLA, PHB meshes were dipped into cross-linked type I collagen solution, dried under vacuum frozen condition. VEC were seeded into these scaffolds. The growth of VEC on scaffolds was analyzed by MTT method. RESULTS: The collagen, PGA/collagen, PLA/collagen scaffolds were elasticity and tenacity. VEC grew better on collagen, PGA/collagen, and PLA/collagen membranes than on the PHB/collagen one. CONCLUSION: The PGA/collagen scaffold has elasticity, plasticity and tenacity. VEC grow best on it. It is an ideal scaffold for tissue engineered vessel reconstruction for it integrating both advantages of biomaterials and degradable materials.
