| Abstract | The repair of skeletal defects is the main goal of bone tissue engineering. Recent literature highlighted various regulatory roles of microRNAs in stem cell fate determination. In addition, the role of porous hydroxyapatite/polycaprolacton (nHA/PCL) as a bioactive scaffold which enhances adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) growth and osteogenic differentiation has been proved. The aim of the present study was to investigate the synergistic potential of both down-regulating miR-221 and nHA/PCL scaffold seeding in osteogenic potential of AT-MSCs. After isolation and characterization of AT-MSCs, the transfection of anti-miR-221 was performed into the cells using lipofectamine 2000 and the transfected cells were seeded into a synthesized nHA/PCL scaffold. The DAPI staining confirmed the presence of AT-MSCs on nHA/PCL scaffold. Quantitative expression of osteoblast marker genes, Runx2, and osteocalcin of the transfected cells in the scaffold were evaluated. Interestingly, significant upregulation of transcribed Runx2 and osteocalcin genes (Pā<ā0.01) were observed in miR-221-inhibited nHA/PCL seeded cells. Also, alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) was significantly higher (Pā<ā0.01) in miR-221-inhibited AT-MSCs seeded on nHA/PCL than those seeded on nHA/PCL or transfected with anti-miR-221, individually. The results of this combination suggest a valuable method for enhancing osteogenesis in AT-MSCs. This method could be applicable for gene-cell therapy of bone defects. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
