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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Project description:The combination of multiple physiological (swelling, porosity, mechanical, and biodegradation) and biological (cell/tissue-adhesive, cell proliferation, and hemostatic) properties on a single hydrogel has great potential for skin tissue engineering. Adhesive hydrogels based on polydopamine (PDA) have become the most popular in the biomedical field; however, integrating multiple properties on a single adhesive hydrogel remains a challenge. Here, inspired by the chemistry of mussels, we developed PDA-sodium alginate-polyacrylamide (PDA-SA-PAM)-based hydrogels with multiple physiological and biological properties for skin tissue engineering applications. The hydrogels were prepared by alkali-induced polymerization of DA followed by complexation with SA in PAM networks. The chemical composition of the hydrogels was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. PDA-SA complexed chains were homogeneously dispersed in the PAM network and exhibited good elasticity and excellent mechanical properties, such as a compressive stress of 0.24 MPa at a compression strain of 70% for 0.4PDA-SA-PAM. The adhesive hydrogel also maintained a highly interconnected porous structure (∼94% porosity) along with PDA microfibrils. The hydrogel possesses outstanding swelling and biodegradability properties. Owing to the presence of the PDA-SA complex in the PAM network, the hydrogels show good adhesion to various substrates (plastic, skin, glass, computer screens, and leaves); for example, the adhesive strength of the 0.4PDA-SA-PAM to porcine skin was 24.5 kPa. The adhesive component of the PDA-SA chains in the PAM network significantly improves the cell proliferation, cell attachment, cell spreading, and functional expression of human skin fibroblasts (CCD-986sk) and keratinocytes. Moreover, the PDA chains exhibited good hemostatic properties, resulting in rapid blood coagulation. Considering their excellent cell affinity, and rapid blood coagulation ability, these mussel-inspired hydrogels have substantial potential for skin tissue engineering applications.
