6-deoxy-aminocellulose derivatives embedded soft gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels for improved wound healing applications: In vitro and in vivo studies. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 185:419-433. [PMID: 34166695 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2021.06.112] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2021] [Revised: 06/10/2021] [Accepted: 06/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Hydrogels were prepared by mixing protein and carbohydrate-based biopolymers to increase the mechanical properties and efficient cell adhesion and proliferation for wound healing applications. Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and its 6-deoxy-aminocellulose derivatives (6-deoxy-6-hydrazide Cellulose (Cell-Hyd), 6-deoxy-6-diethylamide Cellulose (Cell-DEA), and 6-deoxy-6-diethyltriamide Cellulose (Cell-DETA)) were embedded in methacrylated gelatin (GelMA). GelMA and 6-deoxy-aminocellulose derivatives were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques. MCC and cellulose derivatives embedded GelMA gels were characterized by FTIR, SEM and Tensile mechanical testing. SEM images revealed that, porosity of the amine MCC incorporated GelMA was decreased compared to GelMA and MCC incorporated GelMA. Tensile strain of GelMA 61.30% at break was increased to 64.3% in case of GelMA/Cell-HYD. In vitro cytocompatibility and cell proliferation using NIH-3T3 cell lines showed cell density trend on scaffold as GelMA/Cell-DETA>GelMA/Cell-Hyd > GelMA. Scratch assay for wound healing revealed that GelMA/Cell-DETA showed complete wound closure, while GelMA/Cell-Hyd and GelMA exhibited 85.7%, and 66.1% wound healing, respectively in 8 h. In vivo tests on rats revealed that GelMA/Cell-DETA exhibited 98% wound closure on day 9, whereas GelMA/Cell-Hyd exhibited 97.7% and GelMA 66.1% wound healing on day 14. Our findings revealed that GelMA embedded amine MCC derivatives hydrogels can be applied for achieving accelerated wound healing.

Abstract
Herein, thermo-sensitive lignocellulose hydrogels with varying lignin contents were fabricated with N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) by a semi-interpenetrating polymer network (SIPN) strategy using a LiCl/DMSO solvent system. Soda lignin mixed with the lignocellulose/LiCl/DMSO solution was also used to prepare the composite hydrogels, and the influence of the existential state of lignin on the hydrogel properties was analyzed objectively. The SIPN hydrogels exhibited more favorable mechanical properties due to the physical entanglement of poly-NIPAAm and lignocellulose. The presence of externally added lignin in the composite hydrogels is beneficial for mechanical improvement. Both the mechanical properties and the morphologies of the SIPN hydrogels can be tuned by varying the existential state and content of lignin. Furthermore, the prepared SIPN hydrogels showed rapid conversion from being hydrophilic at 20 °C to being hydrophobic at 45 °C. All SIPN hydrogels exhibited obvious oil absorbency in an oil/water mixture at 45 °C. Moreover, the different lignin existential states in the hydrogels resulted in different lower critical solution temperatures (LCST). This study provides a feasible route to produce reinforced thermo-sensitive hydrogels and develops a method for tailoring the morphology and the absorption properties of hydrogels by controlling the existential state and content of lignin. This study provides a feasible route to produce reinforced thermo-sensitive hydrogels and tailor their morphologies and absorption properties by controlling the state and content of lignin.![]()

Abstract
Hydrogels based on natural polymers have bright application prospects in biomedical fields due to their outstanding biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, the poor mechanical performances of pure natural polymer-based hydrogels greatly limit their application prospects. Recently, a variety of strategies has been applied to prepare natural polymer-based hydrogels with enhanced mechanical properties, which generally exhibit stiffening, strengthening, and stretchable behaviors. This article summarizes the recent progress of natural polymer-based hydrogels with enhanced mechanical properties. From a structure point of view, four kinds of hydrogel are reviewed; double network hydrogels, nanocomposite hydrogels, click chemistry-based hydrogels, and supramolecular hydrogels. For each typical hydrogel, its preparation, structure, and mechanical performance are introduced in detail. At the end of this article, the current challenges and future prospects of hydrogels based on natural polymers are discussed and it is pointed out that 3D printing may offer a new platform for the development of natural polymer-based hydrogels.

Abstract
As swollen polymer networks in water, hydrogels are usually brittle. However, hydrogels with high toughness play critical roles in many plant and animal tissues as well as in diverse engineering applications. Here we review the intrinsic mechanisms of a wide variety of tough hydrogels developed over the past few decades. We show that tough hydrogels generally possess mechanisms to dissipate substantial mechanical energy but still maintain high elasticity under deformation. The integrations and interactions of different mechanisms for dissipating energy and maintaining elasticity are essential to the design of tough hydrogels. A matrix that combines various mechanisms is constructed for the first time to guide the design of next-generation tough hydrogels. We further highlight that a particularly promising strategy for the design is to implement multiple mechanisms across multiple length scales into nano-, micro-, meso-, and macro-structures of hydrogels.

Antioxidant sol-gel improves cutaneous wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. EXPERIMENTAL DIABETES RESEARCH 2012; 2012:504693.

Abstract
We examined the effects of vitamin C in Pluronic F127 on diabetic wound healing. Full-thickness excision skin wounds were made in normal and diabetic Wistar rats to evaluate the effect of saline, saline plus vitamin C (antioxidant sol), Pluronic F127, or Pluronic F127 plus vitamin C (antioxidant sol-gel). The rate of wound contraction, the levels of epidermal and dermal maturation, collagen synthesis, and apoptosis production in the wound tissue were determined. In vitro data showed that after 6 hours of air exposure, the order of the scavenging abilities for HOCl, H2O2, and O2
− was antioxidant sol-gel > antioxidant saline > Pluronic F127 = saline. After 7 and 14 days of wound injury, the antioxidant sol-gel improved wound healing significantly by accelerated epidermal and dermal maturation, an increase in collagen content, and a decrease in apoptosis formation. However, the wounds of all treatments healed mostly at 3 weeks. Vitamin C in Pluronic F127 hastened cutaneous wound healing by its antioxidant and antiapoptotic mechanisms through a good drug delivery system. This study showed that Pluronic F127 plus vitamin C could potentially be employed as a novel wound-healing enhancer.
