A tri-layer decellularized, dehydrated human amniotic membrane scaffold supports the cellular functions of human tenocytes in vitro
Abstract Differences in scaffold design have the potential to influence cell-scaffold interactions. This study sought to determine whether a tri-layer design influences the cellular function of human tenocytes in vitro.

Summary: | Abstract Differences in scaffold design have the potential to influence cell-scaffold interactions. This study sought to determine whether a tri-layer design influences the cellular function of human tenocytes in vitro. The single-layer decellularized, dehydrated human amniotic membrane (DDHAM) and the tri-layer DDHAM (DDHAM-3L) similarly supported tenocyte function as evidenced by improved cell growth and migration, reduced dedifferentiation, and an attenuated inflammatory response. The tri-layer design provides a mechanically more robust scaffold without altering biological activity. Graphical Abstract |
