Electrospinning-netting of spider-inspired polycaprolactone/collagen nanofiber-nets incorporated with Propolis extract for enhanced wound healing applications. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 267:131452. [PMID: 38593895 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131452] [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: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/11/2024]
Abstract
Nanofibers hold significant promise for wound healing applications, but their potential is limited by their large diameter. To overcome this limitation, the development of nanofibrous systems with refined nanonets (approximately 20 nm in diameter) represents a notable improvement. In this study, a composite of polycaprolactone/collagen (PCLC) nano-fiber/nets (NFNs) was fabricated using benign solvents (acetic acid and formic acid) via the electro-spinning/netting (ESN) technique, harnessing the regenerative potential of collagen as a biological macromolecule. Additionally, to enhance the natural attributes of the NFNs structure, Propolis extract, renowned for its wound healing properties, was incorporated. Five ESN solutions were prepared: PCL, PCLC, PCLC/Pro 5 %, PCLC/Pro 10 %, and PCLC/Pro 15 %. NaCl salt was introduced into all ESN solutions to improve nanonets formation. FE-SEM imaging demonstrated successful nano-net formation in all ESN solutions except for the PCL formulation. The fabricated scaffolds exhibited spider-like nanonets with the addition of collagen and further enhanced nano-net formation with Propolis incorporation. Trunk nanofibers showed filamentous structures without any beads, with an average diameter of 164-728 nm, while the diameter of branched fibers (nanonets) was approximately 20 nm. WVTR values of the NFNs were comparable to commercial dressings such as Tegaderm. The results also demonstrated the potent cytoprotective effects of Propolis-loaded NFNs in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the viability of HFF-2 cells after 72 h of culture on PCLC NFNs significantly increased compared to PCL nanofibers. The highest cell viability was observed in PCLC/Pro 15 % nanofibers after 24, 48, and 72 h of cell culture, indicating the proliferative effect of Propolis extract in nanoformulated form. Additionally, the scaffolds exhibited a hemocompatibility of <3 %, further highlighting their potential in wound healing therapeutics.

Abstract
The current research work focuses on preparing the polycaprolactone (PCL) based nanocomposite films embedded with surface modified Halloysite Nanotube (HNT). The avenue of the study is to unravel the applicability of polymer nanocomposites for wound healing. The flexible property of HNT was taken as the major force to accomplish the addition of biopolymer pectin onto its surface. Functionalization of HNT with pectin has certainly enhanced its binding nature with the polymer. The PCL nanocomposite films were characterized by several promising techniques such as FTIR, XRD, DSC-TGA, FESEM, TEM, AFM, and mechanical properties were too examined along. When compared to the plane PCL film, the nanocomposite films manifested favorable results in terms of mechanical and chemical properties. Additionally, biometric studies such as in-vitro swelling, enzymatic degradation, and hemolysis performed on the films gave extremely good results. The haemolytic percentage recorded for the films exhibited a steady decrease with increasing amount of nanofillers. The MTT assay showed cell proliferation and its increase as the embedded HNT is more in the matrix. Wound closure study performed on NIH3T3 cell line with 1, 3 and 5wt% of films has given a strong proof for the involvement of polymer and HNT in the healing procedure.

Abstract
Due to its excellent antiseptic efficacy and antimicrobial properties, propolis has shown attractive advantages in wound dressings. However, an inclusive review of the propolis-based materials as a wound dressing is still lacking. The current short review summarizes the skin wound healing process, relates evaluation parameters, and then reviews the refined propolis-based materials dressings such as antimicrobial property, adhesion and hemostasis, anti-inflammatory and substance delivery. The approaches implemented to achieve these functions are classified and discussed. Furthermore, applications of propolis wound dressing for treating different types of wounds such as heal wounds, burns, and ulcers are presented. The future directions of propolis-based wound dressings for wound healing are further proposed. This review showed that propolis-based materials might be a promising new dressing for wound occlusion and tissue repairing.

Abstract
Gelatin methacrylate-based hydrogels (GelMA) were widely used in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. However, to manipulate their various chemical and physical properties and create high-efficiency hydrogels, different materials have been used in their structure. Eggshell membrane (ESM) and propolis are two nature-derived materials that could be used to improve the various characteristics of hydrogels, especially structural and biological properties. Hence, the main purpose of this study is the development of a new type of GelMA hydrogel containing ESM and propolis, for use in regenerative medicine. In this regard, in this study, after synthesizing GelMA, the fragmented ESM fibers were added to it and the GM/EMF hydrogel was made using a photoinitiator and visible light irradiation. Finally, GM/EMF/P hydrogels were prepared by incubating GM/EMF hydrogels in the propolis solution for 24 h. After various structural, chemical, and biological characterizations, it was found that the hydrogels obtained in this study offer improved morphological, hydrophilic, thermal, mechanical, and biological properties. The developed GM/EMF/P hydrogel presented more porosity with smaller and interconnected pores compared to the other hydrogels. GM/EMF hydrogels due to possessing EMF showed compressive strength up to 25.95 ± 1.69 KPa, which is more than the compressive strength provided by GM hydrogels (24.550 ± 4.3 KPa). Also, GM/EMF/P hydrogel offered the best compressive strength (44.65 ± 3.48) due to the presence of both EMF and propolis. GM scaffold with a contact angle of about 65.41 ± 2.199 θ showed more hydrophobicity compared to GM/EMF (28.67 ± 1.58 θ), and GM/EMF/P (26.24 ± 0.73 θ) hydrogels. Also, the higher swelling percentage of GM/EMF/P hydrogels (343.197 ± 42.79) indicated the high capacity of this hydrogel to retain more water than other scaffolds. Regarding the biocompatibility of the fabricated structures, MTT assay results showed that GM/EMF/P hydrogel significantly (p-value < 0.05) supported cell viability. Based on the results, it seems that GM/EMF/P hydrogel could be a promising biomaterial candidate for use in various fields of regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Propolis-loaded electrospun nanofibers (PENs) have been regarded as promising candidates for biomedical purposes such as wound healing/dressing owing to their outstanding pharmacological and biological properties. This paper focuses on the development of electrospun nanofibers with optimum levels of propolis (PRP) and two polymer types (polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)). Hence, response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to investigate the variation of the scaffold characteristics including porosity, average diameter, wettability, release, and tensile strength. For each response, a second-order polynomial model with a high coefficient of determination (R2) values ranging from 0.95 to 0.989 was developed using multiple linear regression analysis. The overall optimum region with the best characteristics was found to be at PCL/6% PRP and PVA/5% PRP. After selecting the optimal samples, the cytotoxicity assay showed no toxicity for the optimal concentrations of PRP. Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra revealed that no new chemical functional groups were introduced in the PENs. Uniform fibers were found in the optimum samples without the appearance of a bead-like structure in the fibers. In conclusion, nanofibers containing the optimal concentration of PRP with suitable properties can be used in biomedical and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Natural-based biomaterials play an important role in developing new products for medical applications, primarily in cutaneous injuries. A large panel of biomaterials with antioxidant properties has revealed an advancement in supporting and expediting tissue regeneration. However, their low bioavailability in preventing cellular oxidative stress through the delivery system limits their therapeutic activity at the injury site. The integration of antioxidant compounds in the implanted biomaterial should be able to maintain their antioxidant activity while facilitating skin tissue recovery. This review summarises the recent literature that reported the role of natural antioxidant-incorporated biomaterials in promoting skin wound healing and tissue regeneration, which is supported by evidence from in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies. Antioxidant-based therapies for wound healing have shown promising evidence in numerous animal studies, even though clinical studies remain very limited. We also described the underlying mechanism of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and provided a comprehensive review of ROS-scavenging biomaterials found in the literature in the last six years.

Abstract
This research aimed to synthesize Chitosan/PVA-blank and a series of Cs/PVA/Sepolite based pH-sensitive membranes using a solution casting process. The synthesized Cs/PVA-blank and Cs/PVA/Sep based membranes were investigated via SEM, FTIR, XRD, and TGA techniques. The SEM results of Cs/PVA/Sep based membrane reveal that the hydrolytic stability and strength were improved in acidic and basic media owing to the incorporation of sepiolite content into chitosan. The characteristic band at 3741 cm-1 in the FTIR spectra of the Cs/PVA/Sep membrane confirmed the successful synthesis. The obtained XRD results showed higher d-spacing for Cs/PVA/Sep membranes as compared to the Cs/PVA-blank membranes owing to the intercalation of chitosan in the interlayer spacing of the sepiolite. The obtained TGA results show higher thermally stability for Cs/PVA/Sep membrane as compared to the Cs/PVA-blank sample due to the interaction of sepiolite content with the chitosan matrix. The obtained hydrolytic and swelling studies revealed that the Cs/PVA/Sep membrane displayed enhanced stability in basic and neutral media while showing minimum swelling in an acidic medium. The water uptake ability was checked for Cs/PVA/-blank and Cs/PVA/Sep-60% membrane and the results exhibited that the Cs/PVA/-blank membrane had maximum water uptake value as compared to the Cs/PVA/Sep-60% membrane. While those with a considerable amount of filler had the lowest water uptake values. As Sepolite content increased, the water uptake % values decreases because of weakness in H-bonding (of hydrophilic groups) and due to intercalation in Sepolite layers during polymer formation.

Abstract
As one of the most common clinical disorders, low back pain (LBP) influences patient quality of life and causes substantial social and economic burdens. Many factors can result in LBP, the most common of which is intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). The progression of IDD cannot be alleviated by conservative or surgical treatments, and gene therapy, growth factor therapy, and cell therapy have their own limitations. Recently, research on the use of hydrogel biomaterials for the treatment of IDD has garnered great interest, and satisfactory treatment results have been achieved. This article describes the classification of hydrogels, the methods of decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) production and the various types of gel formation. The current research on dECM hydrogels for the treatment of IDD is described in detail in this article. First, an overview of the material sources, decellularization methods, and gel formation methods is given. The focus is on research performed over the last three years, which mainly consists of bovine and porcine NP tissues, while for decellularization methods, combinations of several approaches are primarily used. dECM hydrogels have significantly improved mechanical properties after the polymers are cross-linked. The main effects of these gels include induction of stem cell differentiation to intervertebral disc (IVD) cells, good mechanical properties to restore IVD height after polymer cross-linking, and slow release of exosomes. Finally, the challenges and problems still faced by dECM hydrogels for the treatment of IDD are summarised, and potential solutions are proposed. This paper is the first to summarise the research on dECM hydrogels for the treatment of IDD and aims to provide a theoretical reference for subsequent studies.

Abstract
In this study, electrospun nanofibers (NFs) used in trauma dressings were prepared using silk fibroin (SF) and gelatin (GT) as materials and highly volatile formic acid as the solvent, with three different concentrations of propolis extracts (EP), which were loaded through a simple process. The resulting samples were characterized by surface morphology, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), contact angle meter, water absorption, degradation rate, and mechanical property tests. The incorporation of propolis improved its antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus, compared to those of the silk gelatin nanofiber material (SF/GT) alone. In vitro biocompatibility assays showed that SF/GT-1%EP had good cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility. In addition, it can also significantly promote the migration of L929 cells. SF/GT-1%EP was applied to a mouse model of full thickness skin defects, and it was found to significantly promote wound healing. These results indicate that the SF/GT-EP nanofiber material has good biocompatibility, migrating-promoting capability, antibacterial properties, and healing-promoting ability, providing a new idea for the treatment of full thickness skin defects.

Abstract
In this article, the suitability of composite transdermal biomaterial for wound dressing applications is discussed. Bioactive, antioxidant Fucoidan and Chitosan biomaterials were doped into polyvinyl alcohol/β-tricalcium phosphate based polymeric hydrogels loaded with Resveratrol, which has theranostic properties, and biomembrane design with suitable cell regeneration properties was aimed. In accordance with this purpose, tissue profile analysis (TPA) was performed for the bioadhesion properties of composite polymeric biomembranes. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry (FT-IR), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM-EDS) analyses were performed for morphological and structural analyses of biomembrane structures. In vitro Franz diffusion mathematical modelling of composite membrane structures, biocompatibility (MTT test) and in vivo rat tests were performed. TPA analysis of resveratrol loaded biomembrane scaffold design; compressibility; 13.4 ± 1.9(g.s), hardness; 16.8 ± 1(g), adhesiveness; -11 ± 2.0(g.s), elasticity; 0.61 ± 0.07, cohesiveness; 0.84 ± 0.04 were found. Proliferation of the membrane scaffold was 189.83 % at 24 h and 209.12 % at 72 h. In the in vivo rat test; at the end of 28th day, it was found that biomembrane_3 provided 98.75 ± 0.12 % wound shrinkage. The shelf-life of RES in the transdermal membrane scaffold, which was determined as Zero order according to Fick's law in in vitro Franz diffusion mathematical modelling, was found to be approximately 35 days by Minitab statistical analysis. The importance of this study is that the innovative and novel transdermal biomaterial supports tissue cell regeneration and cell proliferation in theranostic applications as a wound dressing.

Abstract
Most commercialized wound dressings are polymer-based. Synthetic and natural polymers have been utilized widely for the development of wound dressings. However, the use of natural polymers is limited by their poor mechanical properties, resulting in their combination with synthetic polymers and other materials to enhance their mechanical properties. Natural polymers are mostly affordable, biocompatible, and biodegradable with promising antimicrobial activity. They have been further tailored into unique hybrid wound dressings when combined with synthetic polymers and selected biomaterials. Some important features required in an ideal wound dressing include the capability to prevent bacteria invasion, reduce odor, absorb exudates, be comfortable, facilitate easy application and removal as well as frequent changing, prevent further skin tear and irritation when applied or removed, and provide a moist environment and soothing effect, be permeable to gases, etc. The efficacy of polymers in the design of wound dressings cannot be overemphasized. This review article reports the efficacy of wound dressings prepared from a combination of synthetic and natural polymers.

Abstract
The development of ideal wound dressing with excellent properties, such as exudate absorption capacity, drug release control ability, and increased wound healing, is currently a major requirement for wound healing. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a biodegradable semi-crystalline synthetic polymer that has been used in the field of biotechnology such as tissue regeneration, wound dressing, and drug delivery systems. In recent years, PVA-based wound dressing materials have received considerable attention due to their excellent properties such as biodegradability, biocompatibility, non-toxicity and low cost. PVA can be used as a wound dressing material to create the necessary moist wound environment, improve the physical properties of the dressing, and increase the wound healing rates. In addition, PVA can also be mixed with other organic and inorganic materials and can be used for drug delivery and wound healing. This review article addresses the role of biomaterials based on PVA mixed with other ingredients for wound dressing. It also focuses on its recent use in wound dressings as carriers of active substances.

Abstract
In this study, selenium microparticles (SeMPs) were green-synthesized by utilizing the Terminalia catappa leaves extract as an effective reducing agent. SeMPs were then decorated onto graphene oxide (GO) with the assistance of ultrasound using the ex-situ technique to obtain the SeMPs-GO composite. SeMPs and SeMPs-GO were thoroughly characterized with modern analytical methods, whereas the antibacterial performance of the composites was evaluated via the optical density method. Particularly, SeMPs-GO held up an inhibition of 99 % against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria strains as well as restrained 50 % of fungal activity. SeMPs-GO was additionally incorporated onto chitosan (CTS) to collect the SeMPs-GO/CTS membrane which was characterized by similar advanced analysis methods. The antibacterial property of the membrane was determined by the inhibition zone diameter. Furthermore, the membrane exhibited good thermal and mechanical characteristics, showing no sign of degradation at a temperature below 260 °C, and a tensile strength of 38 N/mm2. The swelling degree reached 148 % after 6 h of immersion in water, which was stable after 72 h (153 %). The obtained membrane can potentially be utilized for medical and food applications.

Abstract
Recently, the use of bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) produced by Acetobacter, which has suitable properties for tissue engineering application as a perfect wound dressing, has attracted considerable attention. For this purpose, we successfully developed honey loaded BNC-reinforced gelatin/dialdehyde-modified
guar gum films (H/BNC/Ge/D-GG). Prepared films were studied for their morphological, thermal stability, mechanical, water solubility and degradability properties. The physicochemical properties of the developed films with or without honey loading were studied. The results indicated that by
enhancing the honey content of the film, the degradation behavior, adhesion and proliferation of NIH-3T3 fibroblast cells were improved. The films with 15 wt% of honey revealed inhibition activity against S. aureus (13.0±0.1 mm) and E. coli (15.0±1.0 mm) bacteria.
Cell culture results demonstrated that the prepared films had good cytocompatibility. Based on the results, the prepared H/BNC/Ge/D-GG films appear to have high potential for antibacterial wound dressings.

Abstract
Propolis is a resinous product collected by bees from plant exudates to protect and maintain hive homeostasis. Propolis has been used therapeutically for centuries as folk medicine. Modern research investigating the diversity of the chemical composition and plant sources, biological activity, extraction processes, analytical methods, and therapeutic properties in clinical settings have been carried out extensively since the 1980s. Due to its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and immuno-modulator properties, propolis appears to be a suitable bioactive component to be incorporated into biomaterials. This review article attempts to analyze the potential application of propolis as a biomaterial component from the available experimental evidence. The efficacy and compabitility of propolis depend upon factors, such as types of extracts and types of biomaterials. Generally, propolis appears to be compatible with hydroxyapatite/calcium phosphate-based biomaterials. Propolis enhances the antimicrobial properties of the resulting composite materials while improving the physicochemical properties. Furthermore, propolis is also compatible with wound/skin dressing biomaterials. Propolis improves the wound healing properties of the biomaterials with no negative effects on the physicochemical properties of the composite biomaterials. However, the effect of propolis on the glass-based biomaterials cannot be generalized. Depending on the concentration, types of extract, and geographical sources of the propolis, the effect on the glass biomaterials can either be an improvement or detrimental in terms of mechanical properties such as compressive strength and shear bond strength. In conclusion, two of the more consistent impacts of propolis across these different types of biomaterials are the enhancement of the antimicrobial and the immune-modulator/anti-inflammatory properties resulting from the combination of propolis and the biomaterials.

Abstract
Split skin graft (SSG), a standard gold treatment for wound healing, has numerous limitations such as lack of fresh skin to be applied, tedious process, severe scarring, and keloid formation followed by higher risks of infection. Thus, there is a gap in producing polymeric scaffolds as an alternative for wound care management. Bioscaffold is the main component in tissue engineering technology that provides porous three-dimensional (3D) microarchitecture for cells to survive. Upon skin tissue reconstruction, the 3D-porous structure ensures sufficient nutrients and gaseous diffusion and cell penetration that improves cell proliferation and vascularization for tissue regeneration. Hence, it is highly considered a promising candidate for various skin wound healing applications. To date, natural-based crosslinking agents have been extensively used to tailor the physicochemical and mechanical properties of the skin biomatrix. Genipin (GNP) is preferable to other plant-based crosslinkers due to its biological activities, such as antiinflammatory and antioxidant, which are key players to boost skin wound healing. In addition, it has shown a noncytotoxic effect and is biocompatible with human skin cells. This review validated the effects of GNP in biomatrix fabrication for skin wound healing from the last 7 years of established research articles and stipulated the biomaterial development-scale point of view. Lastly, the possible role of GNP in the skin wound healing cascade is also discussed. Through the literature output, it can be concluded that GNP has the capability to increase the stability of biomatrix and maintain the skin cells viability, which will contribute in accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
Globally, millions of people have no access to clean drinking water and are either striving for that or oppressed to intake polluted water. Arsenic is considered one of the most hazardous contaminants in water bodies that reaches there due to various natural and anthropogenic activities. Modified chitosan has gained much attention from researchers due to its potential for arsenic removal. This review focuses on the need and potential of chitosan-based biosorbents for arsenic removal from water systems. Chitosan is a low-cost, abundant, biodegradable biopolymer that possesses unique structural aspects and functional sites for the adsorption of contaminants like arsenic species from contaminated water. The chitosan-based biosorbents had also been modified using various techniques to enhance their arsenic removal efficiencies. This article reviews various forms of chitosan and parameters involved in chitosan modification which eventually affect the arsenic removal efficiency of the resultant sorbents. The literature revealed that the modified chitosan-based sorbents could express higher adsorption efficiency compared to those prepared from native chitosan. The sustainability of the chitosan-based sorbents has also been considered in terms of reusability. Finally, some recommendations have been underlined for further improvements in this domain.

Abstract
Today, chronic wound care and management can be regarded as a clinically critical issue. However, the limitations of current approaches for wound healing have encouraged researchers and physicians to develop more efficient alternative approaches. Advances in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have resulted in the development of promising approaches that can accelerate wound healing and improve the skin regeneration rate and quality. The design and fabrication of scaffolds that can address the multifactorial nature of chronic wound occurrence and provide support for the healing process can be considered an important area requiring improvement. In this regard, polysaccharide-based scaffolds have distinctive properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, high water retention capacity and nontoxicity, making them ideal for wound healing applications. Their tunable structure and networked morphology could facilitate a number of functions, such as controlling their diffusion, maintaining wound moisture, absorbing a large amount of exudates and facilitating gas exchange. In this review, the wound healing process and the influential factors, structure and properties of carbohydrate polymers, physical and chemical crosslinking of polysaccharides, scaffold fabrication techniques, and the use of polysaccharide-based scaffolds in skin tissue engineering and wound healing applications are discussed.
