The present study was to evaluate fiber mesh loaded with naringin via electrospinning to guide bone regeneration in vitro. The naringin-loaded fiber mesh was prepared via elctrospinning of PLGA, PLLA, PDLLA blending solution with naringin. SEM showed that naringin decreased the fiber’s diameter according to the concentration of naringin. After 20 days’ degradation in PBS, the drug-loaded fiber meshes still kept their stability with about 10% decrease in tensile strength. In vitro release experiments showed a sustained and steady naringin releasing profile with little initial burst releasing. Compared to the mats without naringin, the fiber mats loaded with naringin showed the most pronounced enhancement of cell growth when MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured on the fiber mats. The blend fiber loaded with naringin has optimized physical properties and sustained release profile in vitro. The study presents a promising fibrous mesh material for guided bone regeneration therapy.
