Abstract
Blood-contacting medical devices (BCDs) require antithrombotic, antibacterial, and low-friction surfaces. Incorporating a nanostructured surface with the functional hydrogel onto BCD surfaces can enhance the performances; however, their fabrication remains challenging. Here, we introduce a straightforward method to fabricate a multifunctional hydrogel-based nanostructure on BCD surfaces using O-carboxymethyl chitosan-based short nanofibers (CMC-SNFs). CMC-SNFs, fabricated via electrospinning and cutting processes, are easily sprayed and entangled onto the BCD surface. The deposited CMC-SNFs form a robust nanoweb layer via fusion at the contact area of the nanofiber interfaces. The superhydrophilic CMS-SNF nanoweb surface creates a water-bound layer that effectively prevents the nonspecific adhesion of bacteria and blood cells, thereby enhancing both antimicrobial and antithrombotic performances. Furthermore, the CMC-SNF nanoweb exhibits excellent lubricity and durability on the bovine aorta. The demonstration results of the CMC-SNF coating on catheters and sheaths provide evidence of its capability to apply multifunctional surfaces simply for diverse BCDs.

Preparation and characterization of PVA/chitosan nanofibers loaded with Dragon's blood or poly helixan as wound dressings. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 272:132844. [PMID: 38834119 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/06/2024]
Abstract
Nanofibers have been investigated in regenerative medicine. Dragon's blood (DB)- and poly helixan PF (PHPF) are natural materials used in cosmetics. Herein, we generated DB- and PHPF-loaded polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF, respectively) nanofibers. PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF nanofibers had an average diameter of 547.5 ± 17.13 and 521 ± 24.67 nm, respectively as assessed by SEM, and a degradation rate of 43.1 and 47.6 % after 14 days, respectively. PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF nanofibers had a hemolysis rate of 0.10 and 0.39 %, respectively, and a water vapor transmission rate of ∼2200 g.m-2.day-1. These nanofibers exhibited favorable antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus subtilis in vitro. PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF nanofibers demonstrated a sustained release of 77.91 and 76.55 % over 72 h. PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF nanofibers had a high rate of cytocompatibility and significantly improved the viability of NIH/3T3 cells as compared with free drugs or unloaded nanofibers. Histological inspection via H&E and Verhoeff's staining demonstrated PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF nanofibers enhanced the wound healing and damaged tissue recovery of unsplinted wound models by promoting epithelial layer formation, collagen deposition, and enhancing the presence of fibroblasts. Conclusively, PVA/CS/DB and PVA/CS/PHPF can be introduced as potential wound dressing candidates with favorable properties.

Abstract
Marine biopolymers, abundantly present in seaweeds and marine animals, feature diverse structures and functionalities, and possess a wide range of beneficial biological activities. Characterized by high biocompatibility and biodegradability, as well as unique physicochemical properties, marine biopolymers are attracting a constantly increasing interest for the development of advanced systems for applications in the biomedical field. The development of electrospinning offers an innovative technological platform for the production of nonwoven nanofibrous scaffolds with increased surface area, high encapsulation efficacy, intrinsic interconnectivity, and structural analogy to the natural extracellular matrix. Marine biopolymer-based electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds with multifunctional characteristics and tunable mechanical properties now attract significant attention for biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, and wound healing. The present review, covering the literature up to the end of 2021, highlights the advancements in the development of marine biopolymer-based electrospun nanofibers for their utilization as cell proliferation scaffolds, bioadhesives, release modifiers, and wound dressings.

Abstract
Ideal wound dressings should be biocompatible, exhibit high antibacterial activity, and promote blood coagulation. To impart these imperative functions, carboxymethyl-kappa-carrageenan was incorporated into poly(vinyl alcohol) nanofibers (PVA-CMKC). The antibacterial activity of the nanofibers was evaluated. Adsorption of two important blood proteins, fibrinogen and albumin, was also assessed. The adhesion and activation of platelets, and the clotting of whole blood were evaluated to characterize the ability of the nanofibers to promote hemostasis. Adhesion and morphology of both Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were evaluated using fluorescence microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. CMKC-containing nanofibers demonstrated significant increases in platelet adhesion and activation, percentage of coagulation in whole blood clotting test and fibrinogen adsorption, compared to PVA nanofibers, showing blood coagulation activity. Incorporating CMKC also reduces adhesion and viability of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa bacteria after 24 h of incubation. PVA-CMKC nanofibers show potential application as dressings for wound healing applications.

Abstract
Biological studies on the importance of carbohydrate moieties in tissue engineering have incited a growing interest in the application of polysaccharides as scaffolds over the past two decades. This review provides a perspective of the recent approaches in developing polysaccharide scaffolds, with a focus on their chemical modification, structural versatility, and biological applicability. The current major limitations are assessed, including structural reproducibility, the narrow scope of polysaccharide modifications being applied, and the effective replication of the extracellular environment. Areas with opportunities for further development are addressed with an emphasis on the application of rationally designed polysaccharides and their importance in elucidating the molecular interactions necessary to properly design tissue engineering materials.
