T1  - Impact of different structured 3D-Poly(2-oxazoline) scaffolds on the proteinexpression in human macrophages
N2  - In vorliegender Dissertationsarbeit wurde der Einfluss von MEW-gedruckten Scaffolds aus dem synthetischen Polymer PnPrOx, einem Poly(2-oxazolin), mit verschiedenen Oberflächenstrukturen (fibrillär, glatt) auf die Proteinexpression menschlicher Makrophagen untersucht. Dabei wurde überprüft, inwiefern die Beschaffenheit der Oberflächenstruktur des Polymers die Polarisierung von Makrophagen auf Proteinebene beeinflusst.
N2  - In this dissertation, the impact of MEW-printed scaffolds on protein expression in human macrophages was analyzed. These scaffolds were made of the synthetic polymer PnPrOx, a Poly(2-oxazoline), with different surface structures (fibrous, smooth).
The aim was to evaluate in what way the surface structure of the polymer affects polarization of macrophages on a protein level.

T1  - Translation of collagen ultrastructure to biomaterial fabrication for material-independent but highly efficient topographic immunomodulation
JF  - Advanced materials
N2  - Supplement-free induction of cellular differentiation and polarization solely through the topography of materials is an auspicious strategy but has so far significantly lagged behind the efficiency and intensity of media-supplementation-based protocols. Consistent with the idea that 3D structural motifs in the extracellular matrix possess immunomodulatory capacity as part of the natural healing process, it is found in this study that human-monocyte-derived macrophages show a strong M2a-like prohealing polarization when cultured on type I rat-tail collagen fibers but not on collagen I films. Therefore, it is hypothesized that highly aligned nanofibrils also of synthetic polymers, if packed into larger bundles in 3D topographical biomimetic similarity to native collagen I, would induce a localized macrophage polarization. For the automated fabrication of such bundles in a 3D printing manner, the strategy of “melt electrofibrillation” is pioneered by the integration of flow-directed polymer phase separation into melt electrowriting and subsequent selective dissolution of the matrix polymer postprocessing. This process yields nanofiber bundles with a remarkable structural similarity to native collagen I fibers, particularly for medical-grade poly(ε-caprolactone). These biomimetic fibrillar structures indeed induce a pronounced elongation of human-monocyte-derived macrophages and unprecedentedly trigger their M2-like polarization similar in efficacy as interleukin-4 treatment.
