In this study, it was first looked into how chitosan\/alginate scaffolds were made and characterized in the presence of berberine and barberry fruit extract. Second, the process of proliferation and differentiation of ovine fetal BM\u2010MSCs (bone marrow\u2010mesenchymal stem cells) was assessed on these scaffolds after BM\u2010MSCs were extracted and confirmed by developing into osteocyte and adipose cells. To investigate the differentiation, treatment groups include (1) ovine fetal BM\u2010MSCs were plated in Dulbecco's modified eagle medium culture medium with high glucose containing 10% fetal bovine serum and antibiotics (negative control), (2) ovine fetal BM\u2010MSCs were plated in osteogenic differentiation medium (positive control group), (3) positive control group + barberry fruit extract, (4) positive control group + berberine, (5) ovine fetal BM\u2010MSCs were plated in osteogenic differentiation medium on chitosan\/alginate scaffold (hydrogel group), (6) ovine fetal BM\u2010MSCs were plated in osteogenic differentiation medium on chitosan\/alginate\/barberry fruit extract scaffold (hydrogel group containing barberry fruit extract), and (7) ovine fetal BM\u2010MSCs were plated in osteogenic differentiation medium on chitosan\/alginate\/berberine scaffold (hydrogel group containing berberine). Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme concentrations, mineralization rate using a calcium kit, and mineralization measurement by alizarin staining quantification were all found after 21 days of culture. In addition, real\u2010time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction was used to assess the expression of the ALP, COL1A2, and Runx2 genes. Days 5 and 7 had the lowest water absorption by the hydrogel scaffold containing barberry extract, which was significant in comparison to other groups (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.05). Among the hydrogel scaffolds under study, the one containing barberry extract exhibited the lowest tensile strength, and this difference was statistically significant (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.05). The chitosan\/alginate hydrogel has the highest tensile strength of all of them. In comparison to the control and other treatment groups, the inclusion of berberine in the chitosan\/alginate hydrogel significantly increased the expression of the ALP, Runx2, and COL1A2 genes (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.05). The osteocyte differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells in in vitro settings appears to have been enhanced by the inclusion of berberine in the chitosan\/alginate scaffold.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/cbf.3924","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,1,18]],"date-time":"2024-01-18T08:45:14Z","timestamp":1705567514000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Chitosan\/alginate
