Abstract
Chronic wounds represent a formidable global healthcare challenge due to the bacteria infections and uncontrollable inflammation responses, while developing wound healing materials capable of resolving these issues remains a challenge. In this study, we integrated xyloglucan (XG) with Pluronic F127 diacrylate (F127DA)to develop a composite hydrogel for wound healing, where the XG introduced anti-inflammation and anti-bacterial properties to the construct, and F127DA provides the photocurable properties essential for hydrogel formation and robust mechanical characteristics to achieve physical strength that matches tissue regeneration. The material characterizations suggested that XG/F127DA hydrogels had great biostability, blood compatibility and antibacterial effects, which was suitable to be used as a wound healing material. The in vitro analysis by culturing L929 fibroblasts on the hydrogel surface demonstrated that the inclusion of XG could promote the cellular proliferation rate, migration rate, and re-epithelialization-related marker expression, while downregulate the inflammation process. The XG/F127DA hydrogel was further used for the full-thickness skin wound healing test on mice, where the inclusion of XG significantly increased the wound closure rate through reducing the inflammation responses, and promote re-epithelialization and angiogenesis. These results indicated that XG/F127DA hydrogel has great potential to be used for wound healing in future clinical translation.

Abstract
Skin wound healing is a complex and dynamic process involving hemostasis, inflammatory response, cell proliferation and migration, and angiogenesis. Currently used wound dressings remain unsatisfactory in the clinic due to the lack of adjustable mechanical property for injection operation and bioactivity for accelerating wound healing. In this work, an "all-sugar" hydrogel dressing is developed based on dynamic borate bonding network between the hydroxyl groups of okra polysaccharide (OP) and xyloglucan (XG). Benefiting from the reversible crosslinking network, the resulting composite XG/OP hydrogels exhibited good shear-thinning and fast self-healing properties, which is suitable to be injected at wound beds and filled into irregular injured site. Besides, the proposed XG/OP hydrogels showed efficient antioxidant capacity by scavenging DPPH activity of 73.9 %. In vivo experiments demonstrated that XG/OP hydrogels performed hemostasis and accelerated wound healing with reduced inflammation, enhanced collagen deposition and angiogenesis. This plant-derived dynamic hydrogel offers a facile and effective approach for wound management and has great potential for clinical translation in feature.

Preparation of xyloglucan-grafted poly(N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide) copolymer by free-radical polymerization for in vitro evaluation of human dermal fibroblasts. JOURNAL OF MATERIALS SCIENCE. MATERIALS IN MEDICINE 2024; 35:20. [PMID: 38526669 DOI: 10.1007/s10856-024-06783-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/27/2024]
Abstract
Xyloglucan is a rigid polysaccharide that belongs to the carbohydrate family. This hemicellulose compound has been widely used in biomedical research because of its pseudoplastic, mucoadhesive, mucomimetic, and biocompatibility properties. Xyloglucan is a polyose with no amino groups in its structure, which also limits its range of applications. It is still unknown whether grafting hydrophilic monomers onto xyloglucan can produce derivatives that overcome these shortcomings. This work aimed to prepare the first copolymers in which N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide is grafted onto tamarind xyloglucan by free-radical polymerization. The biocompatibility of these structures in vitro was evaluated using human dermal fibroblasts. Gamma radiation-induced graft polymerization was employed as an initiator by varying the radiation dose from 5-25 kGy. The structure of the graft copolymer, Xy-g-poly(N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide), was verified by thermal analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The findings indicate that the degree of grafting and the cytotoxicity/viability of the xyloglucan-based copolymer were independent of dose. Notably, the grafted galactoxyloglucan exhibited efficient support for human dermal fibroblasts, showing heightened proliferative capacity and superior migration capabilities compared to the unmodified polymer. This copolymer might have the potential to be used in skin tissue engineering.

Formulation and Optimal Design of Dioscorea bulbifera and Honey-Loaded Gantrez ®/Xyloglucan Hydrogel as Wound Healing Patches. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14061302. [PMID: 35745874 PMCID: PMC9229440 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14061302] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2022] [Revised: 06/11/2022] [Accepted: 06/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Hydrogel patches are some of the most effective dressings for wound healing. In this study, the Gantrez® S-97 (Gan)/xyloglucan (XG) hydrogel patches were formulated by using a full central composite design (CCD). The optimized hydrogel patches consisted of 17.78% w/w of Gan and 0.1% w/w of XG. Honey and D. bulbifera extract were loaded in the Gan/XG hydrogel patches. The physical properties of the hydrogel patches, including water content, water absorption, rate of water vapor transmission, and mechanical properties, were examined. The D. bulbifera extract/honey-loaded patch exhibited a higher value of water absorption, tensile strength, and elongation than the honey-loaded patch and the unloaded patch, respectively. The biological activities of the patches were also investigated. All hydrogel patches protected wounds from external bacterial infection. The D. bulbifera extract/honey-loaded patch exhibited stronger antioxidant activity than the honey-loaded patch and the unloaded patch. Besides, all the hydrogel patches with concentrations of 0.5-2.5 mg/mL showed that they were nontoxic to fibroblast cells. The combination of D. bulbifera extract and honey in the patch affected fibroblast proliferation. In addition, all Gan/XG hydrogel patches significantly induced recovery of the scratch area. Therefore, the Gan/XG hydrogel patches could be candidates as wound dressings.

Abstract
Background The pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel diseases remains poorly understood and treatment remains suboptimal for many patients. We hypothesize that the inflammatory milieu secondarily prolongs the injury and attenuates healing. We propose primary or adjuvant therapy with biocompatible adhesives to restore a barrier to protect submucosal structures, particularly stem cells. Methods We used the well-described mouse dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) model of colitis resembling human ulcerative colitis to test the therapeutic efficacy of intrarectal administration of the tamarind plant-derived xyloglucan (TXG) polymer adhesive which underwent extensive analytic characterization. Mice in control, DSS-only, TXG-only, and DSS + TXG groups were studied for gross (weight, blood in stool, length of colon) and multiple histologic parameters. Results Compared to DSS-only mice, TXG prevented the weight loss, occurrence of blood in the stool and colon shortening, with all those parameters not being statistically different from treatment naïve animals. Histologically, there was dramatic and highly statistically significant reduction in the total inflammatory index and protection from goblet cell loss, cellular infiltration, crypt abscess formation, epithelial erosion, granulation tissue, epithelial hyperplasia crypt irregularity and crypt loss. The TXG purity and characterization were established by nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and texture analysis. Conclusion The striking attenuation of disease severity by intrarectal TXG use warrants future investigations of natural bioadhesives with well-established high safety profiles, and which could potentially be derivatized to include therapeutically active moieties for local drug delivery.

Abstract
PURPOSE In deep burns, wound contraction and hypertrophic scar formation can generate functional derangement and debilitation of the affected part. In order to improve the quality of healing in deep second-degree burns, we developed a new treatment in a preclinical model using nanostructured membranes seeded with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). METHODS Membranes were obtained by reconstitution of bacterial cellulose (reconstituted membrane [RM]) and produced by a dry-cast process, then RM was incorporated with 10% tamarind xyloglucan plus gellan gum 1:1 and 10% lysozyme (RMGT-LZ) and with 10% gellan gum and 10% lysozyme (RMG-LZ). Membrane hydrophobic/hydrophilic characteristics were investigated by static/dynamic contact-angle measurements. They were cultivated with MSCs, and cell adhesion, proliferation, and migration capacity was analyzed with MTT assays. Morphological and topographic characteristics were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. MSC patterns in flow cytometry and differentiation into adipocytes and osteocytes were checked. In vivo assays used RMG-LZ and RMGT-LZ (with and without MSCs) in Rattus norvegicus rats submitted to burn protocol, and histological sections and collagen deposits were analyzed and immunocytochemistry assay performed. RESULTS In vitro results demonstrated carboxyl and amine groups made the membranes moderately hydrophobic and xyloglucan inclusion decreased wettability, favoring MSC adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. In vivo, we obtained 40% and 60% reduction in acute/chronic inflammatory infiltrates, 96% decrease in injury area, increased vascular proliferation and collagen deposition, and complete epithelialization after 30 days. MSCs were detected in burned tissue, confirming they had homed and proliferated in vivo. CONCLUSION Nanostructured cellulose-gellan-xyloglucan-lysozyme dressings, especially when seeded with MSCs, improved deep second-degree burn regeneration.

Abstract
Xyloglucan is a mucoadhesive polysaccharide which is extracted from the cell wall of vascular plants. Tamarind seeds are the abundant source of xyloglucan and commercially more popular. It is biocompatible, biodegradable, and nontoxic in nature. It is approved by the FDA for use as a food additive, stabilizing and thickening agent or gelling agent. Recently, many researchers are giving attention to xyloglucan for drug delivery through various routes and regeneration of the number of tissues. However, the findings of tissue regeneration and drug delivery in combination are not collected and represented in a simple and comprehensive way. The aim of this review is to find and represent these missing links. This review presents current researches on xyloglucan in drug delivery and regeneration of tissue.

Abstract
Nowadays, the oral use of probiotics is widespread. However, the safety profile with the use of live probiotics is still a matter of debate. Main risks include: Cases of systemic infections due to translocation, particularly in vulnerable patients and pediatric populations; acquisition of antibiotic resistance genes; or interference with gut colonization in neonates. To avoid these risks, there is an increasing interest in non-viable microorganisms or microbial cell extracts to be used as probiotics, mainly heat-killed (including tyndallized) probiotic bacteria (lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria). Heat-treated probiotic cells, cell-free supernatants, and purified key components are able to confer beneficial effects, mainly immunomodulatory effects, protection against enteropathogens, and maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity. At the clinical level, products containing tyndallized probiotic strains have had a role in gastrointestinal diseases, including bloating and infantile coli-in combination with mucosal protectors-and diarrhea. Heat-inactivated probiotics could also have a role in the management of dermatological or respiratory allergic diseases. The reviewed data indicate that heat-killed bacteria or their fractions or purified components have key probiotic effects, with advantages versus live probiotics (mainly their safety profile), positioning them as interesting strategies for the management of common prevalent conditions in a wide variety of patients´ characteristics.

Abstract
Crosslinked xyloglucan-poly(vinyl alcohol) based hydrogel films are interesting materials for wound healing applications. This work focuses on the hydrolytic degradation and consequent morphological modification of a XG-PVA film and on its interaction with cells, blood, bacteria. Biocompatibility of the film was assessed in vitro by investigating different aspects, such as cell viability, oxidative stress level, mitochondrial dysfunction and specific stress biomarkers. Partial adhesiveness was demonstrated by performing different attaching assays and phalloidin staining. Hemocompatibility of XG-PVA film after interaction with blood was evaluated by using a multi-parametric approach, including human Red Blood Cells (RBC) count, hemolytic response and platelets activation. Thrombin and fibrinogen concentrations were examined as marker of the coagulation cascade. After direct contact with human blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), no evidence of cell defense response was observed. Antimicrobial activity of XG-PVA film was tested against Escherichia coli (E.coli). XG-PVA film promotes bacterial retentivity and provides mechanical protection against bacterial infiltration. After loading the film with ampicillin, an inhibitory E. coli growth zone was observed. All together these results indicate that the XG-PVA system is a promising material to be tested in vivo for wound healing applications.

Abstract
Tamarind xyloglucan (TXG) is edible, bioavailable and mucoadhesive polysaccharide. The aim of this study was (i) to investigate molecular docking studies on the interaction of TXG to MUC1 and cytokine receptors and (ii) to assess the mucoadhesive role of TXG in UC. In vivo study: C57Bl6 mice were administered with DSS 3% (w/v) in drinking water; TXG 100 or 300 mg/kg/day was given orally for 7 days simultaneously. TXG consistently binds to MUC1 and cytokine receptors in molecular docking studies. TXG decreased the expression of MUC1 and MUC2. The mucoadhesive ability of TXG decreased IL-1β and IL-6 levels. Furthermore, TXG decreased the expression of TLR4, MyD88, I-κB and NF-κB thereby attenuating inflammation via TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway. TXG mucoadhesion to MUC1 played a pivotal role in attenuating inflammation. To conclude, the mucoadhesive role of TXG is important in the attenuation of inflammation and healing of UC.

Abstract
Disruption of the epithelial barrier function has been recently associated with a variety of diseases, mainly at intestinal level, but also affecting the respiratory epithelium and other mucosal barriers. Non-pharmacological approaches such as xyloglucan, with demonstrated protective barrier properties, are proposed as new alternatives for the management of a wide range of diseases, for which mucosal disruption and, particularly, tight junction alterations, is a common characteristic. Xyloglucan, a natural polysaccharide derived from tamarind seeds, possesses a "mucin-like" molecular structure that confers mucoadhesive properties, allowing xyloglucan formulations to act as a barrier capable of reducing bacterial adherence and invasion and to preserve tight junctions and paracellular flux, as observed in different in vitro and in vivo studies. In clinical trials, xyloglucan has been seen to reduce symptoms of gastroenteritis in adults and children, nasal disorders and dry eye syndrome. Similar mucosal protectors containing reticulated proteins have also been useful for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome and urinary tract infections. The role of xyloglucan in other disorders with mucosal disruption, such as dermatological or other infectious diseases, deserves further research. In conclusion, xyloglucan, endowed with film-forming protective barrier properties, is a safe non-pharmacological alternative for the management of different diseases, such as gastrointestinal and nasal disorders.

Abstract
Thin xyloglucan-based hydrogel films have been synthetized and characterized in the prospect of producing wound dressings. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and glycerol (Gro) were added to have an optimal combination of softness, conformability and resilience. Physical hydrogels have been transformed into permanent covalent hydrogels by reaction with glutaraldehyde (GA). Network structure-process-property relationships are discussed on the account of the results of several complementary characterizations: FTIR, rheology, thermal analysis, morphological analysis, moisture retention and swelling measurements. Selected formulations were also subjected to preliminary in vitro cytotoxicity tests. The physical and mechanical properties of some of the xyloglucan-based hydrogel films produced, combined with absence of cytotoxicity, make them suitable candidates for integration with sensors to monitor the wound healing process and further biological investigations in animal models.
