Bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogel band-aids for diabetic wound healing and infectious skin incision treatment.

ABSTRACT: The treatment of diabetic chronic wounds remains a global challenge due to the up-regulated inflammation response, oxidant stress, and persistent infection during healing process. Developing wound dressing materials with ideal biocompatibility, adequate mechanical strength, considerable under-water adhesion, sufficient anti-inflammation, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties is on-demand for clinical applications. In this study, we developed a bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogel band-aid through the combination of tannic acid (TA) and imidazolidinyl urea reinforced polyurethane (PMI) (TAP hydrogel) and explored its potentials in various medical applications, including hemostasis, normal skin incision, full-thickness skin wounds, and bacterial-infection skin incision on diabetic mice. TA was loaded into PMI hydrogel network to enhance the mechanical properties of TAP hydrogels through multiple non-covalent interactions (break strength: 0.28-0.64 MPa; elongation at break: 650-930%), which could resist the local stress and maintain the structural integrity of wound dressings during applications. Moreover, owing to the promising moisture-resistant adhesiveness and organ hemostasis, outstanding anti-inflammation, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties, TAP hydrogels could efficiently promote the recovery of skin incision and defects on diabetic mice. To further simulate the practical situation and explore the potential in clinical application, we also verified the treatment efficiency of TAP hydrogel in S. aureus-infected skin incision model on diabetic mice.

Engineering Bioactive Self-Healing Antibacterial Exosomes Hydrogel for Promoting Chronic Diabetic Wound Healing and Complete Skin Regeneration.

Project description:Rationale: Chronic nonhealing diabetic wound therapy and complete skin regeneration remains a critical clinical challenge. The controlled release of bioactive factors from a multifunctional hydrogel was a promising strategy to repair chronic wounds. Methods: Herein, for the first time, we developed an injectable, self-healing and antibacterial polypeptide-based FHE hydrogel (F127/OHA-EPL) with stimuli-responsive adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exosomes (AMSCs-exo) release for synergistically enhancing chronic wound healing and complete skin regeneration. The materials characterization, antibacterial activity, stimulated cellular behavior and in vivo full-thickness diabetic wound healing ability of the hydrogels were performed and analyzed. Results: The FHE hydrogel possessed multifunctional properties including fast self-healing process, shear-thinning injectable ability, efficient antibacterial activity, and long term pH-responsive bioactive exosomes release behavior. In vitro, the FHE@exosomes (FHE@exo) hydrogel significantly promoted the proliferation, migration and tube formation ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). In vivo, the FHE@exo hydrogel significantly enhanced the healing efficiency of diabetic full-thickness cutaneous wounds, characterized with enhanced wound closure rates, fast angiogenesis, re-epithelization and collagen deposition within the wound site. Moreover, the FHE@exo hydrogel displayed better healing outcomes than those of exosomes or FHE hydrogel alone, suggesting that the sustained release of exosomes and FHE hydrogel can synergistically facilitate diabetic wound healing. Skin appendages and less scar tissue also appeared in FHE@exo hydrogel treated wounds, indicating its potent ability to achieve complete skin regeneration. Conclusion: This work offers a new approach for repairing chronic wounds completely through a multifunctional hydrogel with controlled exosomes release.

Bioactive antibacterial silica-based nanocomposites hydrogel scaffolds with high angiogenesis for promoting diabetic wound healing and skin repair.

Project description:Diabetic wound repair and skin regeneration remains a worldwide challenge due to the impaired functionality of re-vascularization. Methods: This study reports a bioactive self-healing antibacterial injectable dual-network silica-based nanocomposite hydrogel scaffolds that can significantly enhance the diabetic wound healing/skin tissue formation through promoting early angiogenesis without adding any bioactive factors. The nanocomposite scaffold comprises a main network of polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) forming scaffolds, with an auxiliary dynamic network formed between bioactive glass nanoparticles containing copper (BGNC) and sodium alginate (ALG) (PABC scaffolds). Results: PABC scaffolds exhibit the biomimetic elastomeric mechanical properties, excellent injectabilities, self-healing behavior, as well as the robust broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Importantly, PABC hydrogel significantly promoted the viability, proliferation and angiogenic ability of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in vitro. In vivo, PABC hydrogel could efficiently restore blood vessels networks through enhancing HIF-1α/VEGF expression and collagen matrix deposition in the full-thickness diabetic wound, and significantly accelerate wound healing and skin tissue regeneration. Conclusion: The prominent multifunctional properties and angiogenic capacity of PABC hydrogel scaffolds enable their promising applications in angiogenesis-related regenerative medicine.

PDGF-BB-derived supramolecular hydrogel for promoting skin wound healing.

Project description:Chronic wounds represent a major challenge to the present healthcare system. In recent decades, many topical therapies have been investigated for the treatment of chronic wounds, including different types of wound dressings, antimicrobial agents, and cell therapy. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) plays an important role in wound healing and has been approved for treatment of wounds related to diabetes mellitus. However, the high cost and short retention time of PDGF protein have limited its wide application. To overcome this challenge, we designed a PDGF-mimicking peptide by connecting PDGF epitope VRKIEIVRKK and self-assembling motif derived from β-amyloid peptide. The resultant peptide can self-assemble into a fibril-rich network and leads to supramolecular hydrogelation with good stability. The hydrophilic epitope can be exposed on the surface of nanofibrils, which might contribute to the binding and activation of PDGF receptors. The forming hydrogel is able to induce the growth and migration of vascular endothelial cells and promote the formation of vascular branches. In the full-thickness skin wounds of healthy mice, after the application of the hydrogel, the density of neovascularization marked by CD31 was greater than that in the control group on Day 3. Larger collagen deposition and a thicker epidermis were observed on Day 12. These results demonstrate that the hydrogel can stimulate collagen deposition and angiogenesis, enhance skin regeneration, and show an excellent therapeutic effect. Taken together, this work not only provides new insight into the design of bioactive peptides but also offers a promising biomaterial for wound healing.

Soy Protein/Cellulose Nanofiber Scaffolds Mimicking Skin Extracellular Matrix for Enhanced Wound Healing.

Project description:Historically, soy protein and extracts have been used extensively in foods due to their high protein and mineral content. More recently, soy protein has received attention for a variety of its potential health benefits, including enhanced skin regeneration. It has been reported that soy protein possesses bioactive molecules similar to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and estrogen. In wound healing, oral and topical soy has been heralded as a safe and cost-effective alternative to animal protein and endogenous estrogen. However, engineering soy protein-based fibrous dressings, while recapitulating ECM microenvironment and maintaining a moist environment, remains a challenge. Here, the development of an entirely plant-based nanofibrous dressing comprised of cellulose acetate (CA) and soy protein hydrolysate (SPH) using rotary jet spinning is described. The spun nanofibers successfully mimic physicochemical properties of the native skin ECM and exhibit a high water retaining capability. In vitro, CA/SPH nanofibers promote fibroblast proliferation, migration, infiltration, and integrin ?1 expression. In vivo, CA/SPH scaffolds accelerate re-epithelialization and epidermal thinning as well as reduce scar formation and collagen anisotropy in a similar fashion to other fibrous scaffolds, but without the use of animal proteins or synthetic polymers. These results affirm the potential of CA/SPH nanofibers as a novel wound dressing.

Thermosensitive black phosphorus hydrogel loaded with silver sulfadiazine promotes skin wound healing.

Project description:Wounds can lead to skin and soft tissue damage and their improper management may lead to the growth of pathogenic bacteria at the site of injury. Identifying better ways to promote wound healing is a major unmet need and biomedical materials with the ability to promote wound healing are urgently needed. Here, we report a thermosensitive black phosphorus hydrogel composed of black phosphorus nano-loaded drug silver sulfadiazine (SSD) and chitosan thermosensitive hydrogel for wound healing. The hydrogel has temperature-sensitive properties and enables the continuous release of SSD under near-infrared irradiation to achieve synergistic photothermal and antibacterial treatment. Additionally, it exerts antibacterial effects on Staphylococcus aureus. In a rat skin injury model, it promotes collagen deposition, boosts neovascularization, and suppresses inflammatory markers. In summary, the excellent thermosensitivity, biocompatibility, and wound-healing-promoting qualities of the reported thermosensitive hydrogel make it suitable as an ideal wound dressing in the clinic.

Multifunctional Injectable Hydrogel Loaded with Cerium-Containing Bioactive Glass Nanoparticles for Diabetic Wound Healing.

Project description:Diabetic foot wound healing is a major clinical problem due to impaired angiogenesis and bacterial infection. Therefore, an effective regenerative dressing is desiderated with the function of promoting revascularization and anti-bacteria. Herein, a multifunctional injectable composite hydrogel was prepared by incorporation of the cerium-containing bioactive glass (Ce-BG) into Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel. The Ce-BG was synthesized by combining sol-gel method with template method, which maintained spherical shape, chemical structure and phase constitution of bioactive glass (BG). The Ce-BG/GelMA hydrogels had good cytocompatibility, promoted endothelial cells migration and tube formation by releasing Si ion. In vitro antibacterial tests showed that 5 mol % CeO2-containing bioactive glass/GelMA (5/G) composite hydrogel exhibited excellent antibacterial properties. In vivo study demonstrated that the 5/G hydrogel could significantly improve wound healing in diabetic rats by accelerating the formation of granulation tissue, collagen deposition and angiogenesis. All in all, these results indicate that the 5/G hydrogel could enhance diabetic wound healing. Therefore, the development of multifunctional materials with antibacterial and angiogenic functions is of great significance to promote the repair of diabetic wound healing.

An intrinsically bioactive hydrogel with on-demand drug release behaviors for diabetic wound healing.

Project description:Prolonged, intense inflammation and excessive oxidative stress hinder diabetic wounds from healing normally, leading to disorders downstream including the postponement of re-epithelialization and extracellular matrix (ECM) formation. Herein, we report a hyaluronic acid (HA) and chitosan based hydrogel (OHA-CMC) with inherent antibacterial and hemostatic activities fabricated via Schiff base reaction. By encapsulating nanotechnologically-modified curcumin (CNP) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) into the hydrogel, OHA-CMC/CNP/EGF exhibited extraordinary antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and migration-promoting effects in vitro. Meanwhile, OHA-CMC/CNP/EGF presented on-demand drug release in synchrony with the phases of the wound healing process. Specifically, curcumin was rapidly and constantly released to alleviate inflammation and oxidative stress in the early phase of wound healing, while a more gradual and sustained release of EGF supported late proliferation and ECM remodeling. In a diabetic full-thickness skin defect model, OHA-CMC/CNP/EGF dramatically improved wound healing with ideal re-epithelialization, granulation tissue formation, and skin appendage regeneration, highlighting the enormous therapeutic potential this biomaterial holds as a diabetic wound dressing.

Amnion membrane hydrogel and amnion membrane powder accelerate wound healing in a full thickness porcine skin wound model.

Project description:There is a need for effective wound treatments that retain the bioactivity of a cellular treatment, but without the high costs and complexities associated with manufacturing, storing, and applying living biological products. Previously, we developed an amnion membrane-derived hydrogel and evaluated its wound healing properties using a mouse wound model. In this study, we used a full thickness porcine skin wound model to evaluate the wound-healing efficacy of the amnion hydrogel and a less-processed amnion product comprising a lyophilized amnion membrane powder. These products were compared with commercially available amnion and nonamnion wound healing products. We found that the amnion hydrogel and amnion powder treatments demonstrated significant and rapid wound healing, driven primarily by new epithelialization versus closure by contraction. Histological analysis demonstrated that these treatments promote the formation of a mature epidermis and dermis with similar composition to healthy skin. The positive skin regenerative outcomes using amnion hydrogel and amnion powder treatments in a large animal model further demonstrate their potential translational value for human wound treatments.

Mussel-inspired adhesive antioxidant antibacterial hemostatic composite hydrogel wound dressing via photo-polymerization for infected skin wound healing.

Project description:With the increasing prevalence of drug-resistant bacterial infections and the slow healing of chronically infected wounds, the development of new antibacterial and accelerated wound healing dressings has become a serious challenge. In order to solve this problem, we developed photo-crosslinked multifunctional antibacterial adhesive anti-oxidant hemostatic hydrogel dressings based on polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether modified glycidyl methacrylate functionalized chitosan (CSG-PEG), methacrylamide dopamine (DMA) and zinc ion for disinfection of drug-resistant bacteria and promoting wound healing. The mechanical properties, rheological properties and morphology of hydrogels were characterized, and the biocompatibility of these hydrogels was studied through cell compatibility and blood compatibility tests. These hydrogels were tested for the in vitro blood-clotting ability of whole blood and showed good hemostatic ability in the mouse liver hemorrhage model and the mouse-tail amputation model. In addition, it has been confirmed that the multifunctional hydrogels have good inherent antibacterial properties against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In the full-thickness skin defect model infected with MRSA, the wound closure ratio, thickness of granulation tissue, number of collagen deposition, regeneration of blood vessels and hair follicles were measured. The inflammation-related cytokines (CD68) and angiogenesis-related cytokines (CD31) expressed during skin regeneration were studied. All results indicate that these multifunctional antibacterial adhesive hemostatic hydrogels have better healing effects than commercially available Tegaderm™ Film, revealing that they have become promising alternative in the healing of infected wounds.

Bioactive polymeric formulations for wound healing.

Project description:Ricinoleic acid (RA) has potential to promote wound healing because of its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. This study investigates the synthesis and characterization of RA liposomes infused in a hydrogel for topical application. Lecithin liposomes containing RA were prepared and incorporated into a chitosan solution and were subsequently cross-linked with dialdehyde β-cyclodextrin (Di-β-CD). Chitosan/Di-β-CD concentrations and reaction temperatures were varied to alter gelation time, water content, and mechanical properties of the hydrogel in an effort to obtain a wide range of RA release profiles. Hydrogel cross-linking was confirmed by spectroscopy, and liposome and carrier hydrogel morphology via microscopy. Chitosan, Di-β-CD, and liposome concentrations within the formulation affected the extent of matrix swelling, mechanical strength, and pore and overall morphology. Higher cross-linking density of the hydrogel led to lower water uptake and slower release rate of RA. Optimized formulations resulted in a burst release of RA followed by a steady release pattern accounting for 80% of the encapsulated RA over a period of 48 hours. However, RA concentrations above 0.1 mg/mL were found to be cytotoxic to fibroblast cultures in vitro because of the oily nature of RA. These formulations promoted wound healing when used to treat full thickness skin wounds (2 cm2) in Wister male rats. The wound contraction rates were significantly higher compared to a commercially available topical cream after a time period of 21 days. Histopathological analysis of the RA-liposomal chitosan hydrogel group showed that the epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous skin layers displayed an accelerated yet normal healing compared to control group.
