    Abstract
    The use of biological macromolecules like quince seed mucilage (QSM), as the common curative practice has a long history in traditional folk medicine to cure wounds and burns. However, this gel cannot be applied on exudative wounds because of the high water content and non-absorption of infection of open wounds. It also limits cell-to-cell interactions and leads to the slow wound healing process. In this study to overcome these problems, a novel QSM-based hybrid scaffold modified by PCL/PEG copolymer was designed and characterized. The properties of this scaffold (PCL/QSM/PEG) were also compared with four scaffolds of PCL/PEG, PCL/Chitosan/PEG, chitosan, and QSM, to assess the role of QSM and the combined effect of polymers in improving the function of skin tissue-engineered scaffolds. It was found, the physicochemical properties play a crucial role in regulating cell behaviors so that, PCL/QSM/PEG as a smart/stimuli-responsive bio-matrix promotes not only human-adipose stem cells (h-ASCs) adhesion but also supports fibroblasts growth, via providing a porous-network. PCL/QSM/PEG could also induce keratinocytes at a desirable level for wound healing, by increasing the mechanobiological signals. Immunocytochemistry analysis confirmed keratinocytes differentiation pattern and their normal phenotype on PCL/QSM/PEG. Our study demonstrates, QSM as a differentiation/growth-promoting biological factor can be a proper candidate for design of wound dressings and skin tissue-engineered substrates containing cell.
