A method for preparing a highly elastic biodegradable three-dimensional structure includes (a) mixing poly(lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLCL) with at least one biocompatible heat stabilizer that is biocompatible with the PLCL, that is a heat stabilizer for the PLCL, and that is selected from the group consisting of α-tocopherol, barium-zinc, calcium-zinc, vitamin B, and combinations thereof to provide a solvent-free mixture; and (b) carrying out three-dimensional printing with the solvent-free mixture by heating the mixture at 150-250° C. for 5-20 minutes to provide a heated mixture; and ejecting the heated mixture through a nozzle. The three-dimensional structure maintains mechanical properties even after three-dimensional printing, by adding a biocompatible heat stabilizer to poly(L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone). The three-dimensional structure is useful as a scaffold for tissue engineering.

Disclosed are a polylactide stereocomplex with improved thermal stability and thus improved processability and a method for preparing the same. In order to confer flexibility to polymer chains, D-type polylactide polymer containing a small amount of caprolactone (poly D-lactide-caprolactone copolymer) is synthesized and it is uniformly mixed with L-type single-phase polylactide to prepare a flexible polylactide stereocomplex. Since the polylactide stereocomplex having flexible polymer chains has superior heat resistance and mechanical stability and experiences little decrease of the degree of stereocomplex formation even after thermal processing, the polylactide stereocomplex having improved thermal stability can be advantageously used for engineering plastics requiring high strength and good thermal stability, alternative materials for general-use plastics, high-performance medical materials, or the like because of its remarkably improved processability.

摘要:
A pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating arthritis, which comprises synthetic polypeptides; injections for preventing or treating arthritis; and a pharmaceutical composition for inducing differentiation of cartilage cells are described herein. Synthetic polypeptides of the present invention consisting of a polypeptide represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 and a polypeptide represented by SEQ ID NO: 2 have activity for recruiting stem cells to an arthritis region, inhibit apoptosis of cartilage cells, and exhibit anti-inflammatory activity and activity for promoting regeneration of cartilage cells. Thus, unlike a conventional arthritis treatment agent, the synthetic polypeptides can improve cartilage damage, can inhibit degenerative changes per se and can, at the same time, exhibit an effect as a stem cell treatment agent, and thereby can be usefully utilized as an arthritis prevention or treatment agent.

Provided are a method for fabricating a highly elastic porous polymer membrane, a method for manufacturing a cell culture system using a porous polymer membrane fabricated by the fabrication method, and a cell culture system manufactured by the manufacturing method. The porous polymer membrane can be fabricated by spin coating a mixture solution containing a biodegradable elastomeric polymer and a water-soluble moisture absorbent in an optimum ratio while maintaining a high relative humidity. The porous polymer membrane has a uniform thickness and a uniform pore size and is highly elastic. In addition, the thickness and pore size of the porous polymer membrane can be controlled. The porous polymer membrane can induce active cell-cell interaction during cell co-culture due to its high porosity. The porous polymer membrane enables control over cell alignment or array due to its high biocompatibility and elasticity. The porous polymer membrane can be utilized in a platform for inducing stem cell differentiation, a lab-on-a-chip, a synthetic skin simulant platform, etc.
