Silk Fibroin in Tissue Engineering

Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2012
AbstractTissue engineering (TE) is a multidisciplinary field that aims at the in vitro engineering of tissues and organs by integrating science and technology of cells, materials and biochemical factors. Mimicking the natural extracellular matrix is one of the critical and challenging technological barriers, for which scaffold engineering has become a ...

In vitro degradation of silk fibroin

Biomaterials, 2005
A significant need exists for long-term degradable biomaterials which can slowly and predictably transfer a load-bearing burden to developing biological tissue. In this study Bombyx mori silk fibroin yarns were incubated in 1mg/ml Protease XIV at 37 degrees C to create an in vitro model system of proteolytic degradation.

Characterization of Fibroin and PEG-Blended Fibroin Matrices for In Vitro Adhesion and Proliferation of Osteoblasts

Journal of Biomaterials Science, Polymer Edition, 2009
Silk fibroin protein, isolated from cocoons of the domesticated mulberry silkworm, Bombyx mori, finds extensive application in biomaterial design. In this study, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) 4000 has been used for blending fibroin from both B. mori and Antheraea mylitta, the wild tropical non-mulberry silkworm.

Modification of Fibroin Film with A Chimera Fibroin Fragment for Improvement of Cell Adhesion

MRS Proceedings, 1998
AbstractSilk fibroin is a naturally occurring structural protein with good mechanical properties used in a variety of forms, such as powder, fiber, film, and gel. Although silk fibroin is potentially suitable for use in tissue engineering, it lacks cell regulation functions such as cell adhesion, growth, metabolism, and differentiation.

Strategies of Fibroin Production

1987
The production of silk is a specialized case of the capacity of organisms to produce fibrous proteins. Silks are produced for a variety of life needs, and their production is widespread within the animal kingdom, particularly in the phylum Arthropoda, and more specifically in the classes Insecta and Arachnida.
