The development of biocompatible photopolymerizing polymers for biomedical and tissue engineering applications has the potential to reduce the invasiveness and cost of biomaterial implants designed to repair or augment tissues. However, more information is needed about the cellular toxicity of the compounds and initiators used in these systems. The current study evaluates the cellular toxicity of three ultraviolet sensitive photoinitiators on six different cell populations that are used for engineering numerous tissues. The photoinitiator 2-hydroxy-1-[4-(hydroxyethoxy)phenyl]-2-methyl-1-propanone (Irgacure 2959) caused minimal toxicity (cell death) over a broad range of mammalian cell types and species. It was also demonstrated that different cell types have variable responses to identical concentrations of the same photoinitiator. While inherent differences in the cell lines may contribute to the variable cytotoxicity, a correlation between cellular proliferation rate (population doubling time) and increased cytotoxicity of the photoinitiator was observed. Cell lines that divided more quickly were more sensitive to photoinitiator-induced cell death. In summary, the photoinitiator Irgacure 2959 is well tolerated by many cell types over a range of mammalian species. Cell photoencapsulation strategies may be optimized to improve cell survival by manipulating proliferation rate.
