A photocrosslinkable and hemostatic bilayer wound dressing based on gelatin methacrylate hydrogel and polyvinyl alcohol foam for skin regeneration. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131231. [PMID: 38554918 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131231] [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: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 03/02/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
The enormous potential of multifunctional bilayer wound dressings in various medical interventions for wound healing has led to decades of exploration into this field of medicine. However, it is usually difficult to synthesize a single hydrogel with all the required capabilities simultaneously. This paper proposes a bilayer model with an outer layer intended for hydrogel wound treatment. By adding gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and tannic acid (TA) to the hydrogel composition and using polyvinyl alcohol-carboxymethyl chitosan (PVA-CMCs) foam layer as supports, a photocrosslinkable hydrogel with an optimal formulation was created. The hydrogels were then examined using a range of analytical procedures, including mechanical testing, rheology, chemical characterization, and in vitro and in vivo tests. The resulting bilayer wound dressing has many desirable properties, namely uniform adhesion and quick crosslinking by UV light. When used against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains, bilayer wound dressings demonstrated broad antibacterial efficacy. In bilayer wound dressings with GelMA and TA, better wound healing was observed. Those without these elements showed less effectiveness in healing wounds. Additionally, encouraging collagen production and reducing wound infection has a major therapeutic impact on wounds. The results of this study could have a significant impact on the development of better-performing wound dressings.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is a detrimental event present in traumatic injury, surgery, and disorders of bleeding that can become life-threatening if not properly managed. Moreover, uncontrolled bleeding can complicate surgical interventions, altering the outcome of surgical procedures. Therefore, to reduce the risk of complications and decrease the risk of morbidity and mortality associated with hemorrhage, it is necessary to use an effective hemostatic agent that ensures the immediate control of bleeding. In recent years, there have been increasingly rapid advances in developing a novel generation of biomaterials with hemostatic properties. Nowadays, a wide array of topical hemostatic agents is available, including chitosan-based biomaterials that have shown outstanding properties such as antibacterial, antifungal, hemostatic, and analgesic activity in addition to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and wound-healing effects. This review provides an analysis of chitosan-based hemostatic biomaterials and discusses the progress made in their performance, mechanism of action, efficacy, cost, and safety in recent years.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are naturally occurring polymers with exceptional biodegradable and biocompatible qualities that are used as hemostatic agents. In this study, photoinduced CC bond network and dynamic bond network binding was used to give polysaccharide-based hydrogels the requisite mechanical strength and tissue adhesion. The designed hydrogel was composed of modified carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS-MA) and oxidized dextran (OD), and introduced hydrogen bond network through tannic acid (TA) doping. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) were also added, and the effects of various doping amount on the performance of the hydrogel were examined, in order to enhance the hemostatic property of hydrogel. Experiments on vitro degradation and swelling demonstrated the strong structural stability of hydrogels. The hydrogel has improved tissue adhesion strength, with a maximum adhesion strength of 157.9 kPa, and demonstrated improved compressive strength, with a maximum compressive strength of 80.9 kPa. Meanwhile, the hydrogel had a low hemolysis rate and had no inhibition on cell proliferation. The created hydrogel exhibited a significant aggregation effect on platelets and a reduced blood clotting index (BCI). Importantly, the hydrogel can quickly adhere to seal the wound and has good hemostatic effect in vivo. Our work successfully prepared a polysaccharide-based bio-adhesive hydrogel dressing with stable structure, appropriate mechanical strength, and good hemostatic properties.

Abstract
Current tissue plasminogen-based therapeutic strategies for stroke suffer from systemic side effects and poor efficacy. Hence, novel drug delivery methods are needed to overcome these shortcomings. Exosome-based drug formulations have been shown to have superior therapeutic outcomes compared to conventional systemic drug delivery approaches. In this paper, we report exosome surface-coated tissue plasminogen activator (tPA)/catalase nanoformulations with improved thrombolytic efficacy compared to free tPA, which also reduce side effects. The results showed that the tPA exosome formulations retained tPA activity, improved tPA stability, exhibited significant fibrinolysis, and showed no significant toxicity effects. Further, when combined with antioxidant enzyme catalase, the formulation was able to inhibit hydrogen peroxide-mediated oxidative stress and toxicity. Hence, exosome-based tPA/catalase nanoformulations could have the potential to offer a safer and effective thrombolytic therapy.

Chitosan-based films with cannabis oil as a base material for wound dressing application. Sci Rep 2022; 12:18658.

Abstract
This study focuses on obtaining and characterizing novel chitosan-based biomaterials containing cannabis oil to potentially promote wound healing. The primary active substance in cannabis oil is the non-psychoactive cannabidiol, which has many beneficial properties. In this study, three chitosan-based films containing different concentrations of cannabis oil were prepared. As the amount of oil increased, the obtained biomaterials became rougher as tested by atomic force microscopy. Such rough surfaces promote protein adsorption, confirmed by experiments assessing the interaction between human albumin with the obtained materials. Increased oil concentration also improved the films' mechanical parameters, swelling capacity, and hydrophilic properties, which were checked by the wetting angle measurement. On the other hand, higher oil content resulted in decreased water vapour permeability, which is essential in wound dressing. Furthermore, the prepared films were subjected to an acute toxicity test using a Microtox. Significantly, the film's increased cannabis oil content enhanced the antimicrobial effect against A. fischeri for films in direct contact with bacteria. More importantly, cell culture studies revealed that the obtained materials are biocompatible and, therefore, they might be potential candidates for application in wound dressing materials.
