Abstract
Uncontrolled hemorrhage and infection are the principal causes of mortality associated with trauma in both military and civilian medical settings. Modified starch granules have emerged as a safe hemostatic agent for irregular and noncompressible wounds, but their performance is constrained by limited hemostasis efficiency and modest antibacterial activity. This study reported a directed self-assembly approach for a multifunctional mesoporous starch-based microparticle loaded with chitosan and calcium ions (Ca@MSMP) used for rapid hemostasis and wound healing. Directed self-assembly of uniform Ca@MSMP with a hierarchical hollow structure in the presence of chitosan was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis and pore structure analysis. The resulting Ca@MSMP exhibited a well-defined spherical shape and uniform size of 1 μm and demonstrated excellent antibacterial activity (>95%) without hemolytic activity. Importantly, Ca@MSMP enhanced blood coagulation and platelet aggregation via the synergistic effect of rapid calcium release and chitosan-mediated electrostatic interactions, leading to a significant decrease in blood loss and reduction in hemostasis time in rat tail amputation and liver injury models. In comparative analyses, Ca@MSMP significantly outperformed the commercial hemostatic agent Quickclean, notably enhancing the healing of full-thickness skin wounds in vivo by effectively preventing infection. These results underscore the potential of this innovative hemostatic material in diverse clinical scenarios, offering effective solutions for the management of bleeding in wounds that are irregularly shaped and noncompressible.

Study of the self-assembly, drug encapsulating and delivering characteristics of short chain amylose-based type 3 resistant starch nanoparticles from Canna edulis. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 262:130107. [PMID: 38350585 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130107] [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: 10/07/2023] [Revised: 02/07/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/15/2024]
Abstract
In developing type 3 resistant starch (RS3) from Canna edulis for use as functional food ingredients, we investigated the synthesis of C. edulis RS3 nanoparticles. Simultaneously, we explored the potential of C. edulis short-chain amylose (SCA)-based RS3 nanoparticles (RS3N) as a targeted delivery system, with a specific focus on colon targeting, yielding promising insights. Our study revealed that the degree of polymerization (DP) of C. edulis SCA, particularly the chains of DP 36- 100, exhibited a robust correlation with the particle size and physicochemical characteristics of C. edulis SCA-based RS3N. Additionally, recrystallization temperature variation (4, 25, and 45 °C) significantly influenced the self-assembly behavior of C. edulis SCA, with the preparation at 4 °C resulting in more uniform particle size distributions. In further expanding the scope of applications for C. edulis SCA-based RS3N, we harnessed the potential of Fe3O4 and curcumin (CUR) as guest molecules to assess drug encapsulation and colon-targeting capabilities. Incorporating Fe3O4 into the self-assembly system led to the production of magnetic RS3N, confirming the successful encapsulation of Fe3O4 within C. edulis SCA-based RS3N. Furthermore, in vitro experiments have demonstrated that CUR-RS3N was stable in the gastrointestinal tract and gradually released curcumin with fermentation in the colonic environment. Collectively, these findings provide invaluable insights into the intricate self-assembly behavior of C. edulis SCA with varying fine structures and recrystallization temperatures during RS3N formation. Moreover, they underscore the colon-targeted properties of C. edulis SCA-based RS3N, opening promising avenues for its application within the food industry, particularly in advanced controlled drug delivery systems.
