    Abstract
    In the present study, alginate/cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM)-based injectable hydrogel was developed incorporated with silk fibroin nanofibers (SFN) for cartilage tissue engineering. The in situ forming hydrogels were composed of different ionic crosslinked alginate concentrations with 1% w/v enzymatically crosslinked phenolized cartilage ECM, resulting in an interpenetrating polymer network (IPN). The response surface methodology (RSM) approach was applied to optimize IPN hydrogel's mechanical properties by varying alginate and SFN concentrations. The results demonstrated that upon increasing the alginate concentration, the compression modulus improved. The SFN concentration was...

    Abstract
    Herein, we successfully prepared two types of hydrogels, alginate-beta-cyclodextrin based hydrogel and alginate without beta-cyclodextrin hydrogel in order to use in cartilage tissue engineering. At first, sodium alginate was modified with beta-cyclodextrin ring due to incorporate the kartogenin (KGN) differentiating drug in the hydrogel structure. For confirming the correctness of the modification reactions, H-NMR spectroscopy was used. In the presence of phenolized-ECM, alginic acid, modified alginate with beta cyclodextrin, HRP, H2O2, calcium carbonate, and glucono-delta-lactone (GDL), ECM-alginate-IPN and ECM-modified-alginate-IPN hydrogels were synthesized. Then, the KGN was loaded on...
