Hydroxypropyl chitosan/ε-poly-l-lysine based injectable and self-healing hydrogels with antimicrobial and hemostatic activity for wound repair. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 337:122135. [PMID: 38710549 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.122135] [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: 01/25/2024] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
The biggest obstacle to treating wound healing continues to be the production of simple, inexpensive wound dressings that satisfy the demands associated with full process of repair at the same time. Herein, a series of injectable composite hydrogels were successfully prepared by a one-pot method by utilizing the Schiff base reaction as well as hydrogen bonding forces between hydroxypropyl chitosan (HCS), ε-poly-l-lysine (EPL), and 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (TBA), and multiple cross-links formed by the reversible coordination between iron (III) and pyrogallol moieties. Notably, hydrogel exhibits excellent physicochemical properties, including injectability, self-healing, water retention, and adhesion, which enable to fill irregular wounds for a long period, providing a suitable moist environment for wound healing. Interestingly, the excellent hemostatic properties of the hydrogel can quickly stop bleeding and avoid the serious sequelae of massive blood loss in acute trauma. Moreover, the powerful antimicrobial and antioxidant properties also protect against bacterial infections and reduce inflammation at the wound site, thus promoting healing at all stages of the wound. The study of biohydrogel with multifunctional integration of wound treatment and smart medical treatment is clarified by this line of research.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and tissue hypoxia always prevent wound healing, so multifunctional platforms with antimicrobial and oxygen-supplying functions were developed. However, they face many difficulties such as complex preparation and low oxygen release. To address this challenge, a copper peroxide loaded gelatin/oxide dextran hydrogel (CGO) was prepared. Surprisingly, CGO hydrogel as a wound dressing not only had good biocompatibility, injectivity, and mechanical properties, but also exhibited mild photothermal properties, temperature responsiveness, and pH responsiveness. After being applied to wounds infected with bacteria, CGO hydrogel released copper peroxide under near-infrared laser irradiation, which produced copper ions and hydrogen peroxide, combined with PTT to kill bacteria. After the bacteria were cleared from the wound and the pH of the wound was changed to be acidic, CGO hydrogel released copper peroxide via pH response. Copper ions and oxygen produced from copper peroxide accelerated wound healing by promoting angiogenesis. The multi-responsive and multi-mode treatment platform provided a potential strategy for treating bacteria-infected wounds.

Innovative Synthesis of Photo-Responsive, Self-Healing Silicone Elastomers with Enhanced Mechanical Properties and Thermal Stability. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024:e2403941. [PMID: 39058224 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202403941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2024] [Revised: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024]
Abstract
Photo-responsive materials have garnered significant interest for their ability to react to non-contact stimuli, though achieving self-healing under gentle conditions remains an elusive goal. In this research, an innovative and straightforward approach for synthesizing silicone elastomers is proposed that not only self-heal at room temperature but also possess unique photochromic properties and adjustable mechanical strength, along with being both transparent and reprocessable. Initially, aldehyde-bifunctional dithiophene-ethylene molecules with dialdehyde groups (DTEM) and isocyanurate (IPDI) is introduced into the aminopropyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (H2N-PDMS-NH2) matrix. Subsequently, palladium is incorporated to enhance coordination within the matrix. These silicone elastomers transition to a blue state under 254 nm UV light and revert to transparency under 580 nm light. Remarkably, they demonstrate excellent thermal stability at temperatures up to 100 °C and show superior fatigue resistance. The optical switching capabilities of the silicone elastomers significantly affect both their mechanical characteristics and self-healing abilities. Notably, the PDMS-DTEM-IPDI-@Pd silicone elastomer, featuring closed-loop photo-switching molecules, exhibits a fracture toughness that is 1.3 times greater and a room temperature self-healing efficiency 1.4 times higher than its open-loop counterparts. This novel photo-responsive silicone elastomer offers promising potential for applications in data writing and erasure, UV protective coatings, and micro-trace development.

Abstract
Hydrogels exhibit exceptional suitability as wound dressing due to their remarkable three-dimensional (3D) characteristics. Here, we have reported the fabrication of hydrogels from biopolymers carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and gelatin via a simple blending method to mimic the natural extracellular matrix. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water contact meters (WCM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to evaluate the chemical structural, morphological, and wettability behavior. The wetting and degradation behavior were also found to be different for different formulations (Min. (51.60o) and Max. (113.60o)) and (Min. (38.82 mg) and Max. (3.72 mg)), respectively. Swelling was investigated in different media, including phosphate buffer saline solution (PBS) and aqueous media. It was observed that the hydrogel displayed the highest degree of swelling in an aqueous medium (Min. (597.32-1121.49 %) and Max. (1089.51-2139.73 %)) compared to PBS media (Min. (567.01-1021.85 %) and Max. (899.13-1639.17 %)). The release of Neomycin was studied in a PBS medium via the Franz diffusion method at 37 °C. The maximal release in various media demonstrated pH-responsive behavior. The viability and proliferation of fibroblast (3T3) cell lines were examined in vitro to evaluate cytocompatibility. Human Embryonic Kidney (HEK) 293 cells were used to evaluate the hydrogels' ability to promote vascularization and angiogenesis. Therefore, the data demonstrate that hydrogels that have been manufactured have qualities that make them promising for use as wound dressings in wound healing applications.

Abstract
Severe trauma with massive active blood loss, including liver and spleen rupture, arterial bleeding and pelvic fracture, will lead disability, malformation and even death. Therefore, it is very important to develop new, fast and efficient hemostatic materials. In this study, a novel Gelatin/Kaolin (GE/KA) composite sponge was developed. Meanwhile, to further investigate the effect of kaolin content on sponge properties, we prepared four types of sponges: GE/5% KA, GE/10% KA, GE/15% KA and GE/20% KA. The results of coagulation test in vitro showed that compared to the other groups, there were more activated adhered platelets and red blood cells on the surface of GE/15% KA. The results of hemostasis test in vivo showed that compared to other experimental groups, the GE/15% KA group had significantly less hemostasis time (liver hemostasis model: 69.50 ± 2.81 s; femoral artery hemostasis model: 75.17 ± 3.06 s) and bleeding volume (liver hemostasis model: 219.02 ± 10.39 mg; femoral artery hemostasis model: 948.00 ± 50.69 mg), and was similar to the commercial hemostasis material group. Additionally, the material properties of the sponge were characterized and its biocompatibility was verified as well through cell experiments and in vivo embedding experiments. All these results indicate that the optimal content of kaolin is 15%, which provides a theoretical basis for subsequent research. All in all, the novel GE/KA composite sponge prepared in this study can be used as a multifunctional hemostatic wound dressing for the treatment of complex wounds under various trauma scenes.

Abstract
Disturbing or disrupting the regular healing process of a skin wound may result in its progression to a chronic state. Chronic wounds often lead to increased infection because of their long healing time, malnutrition, and insufficient oxygen flow, subsequently affecting wound progression. Gelatin-the main structure of natural collagen-is widely used in biomedical fields because of its low cost, wide availability, biocompatibility, and degradability. However, gelatin may exhibit diverse tailored physical properties and poor antibacterial activity. Research on gelatin-based biomaterials has identified the challenges of improving gelatin's poor antibacterial properties and low mechanical properties. In chronic wounds, gelatin-based biomaterials can promote wound hemostasis, enhance peri-wound antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and promote vascular and epithelial cell regeneration. In this article, we first introduce the natural process of wound healing. Second, we present the role of gelatin-based biomaterials and gelatin as an additive in wound healing. Finally, we present the future implications of gelatin-based biomaterials.

Abstract
The skin is the largest organ of the body, and it acts as a protective barrier against external factors. Chronic wounds affect millions of people worldwide and are associated with significant morbidity and reduced quality of life. One of the main factors involved in delayed wound healing is oxidative injury, which is triggered by the overproduction of reactive oxygen species. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of chronic wounds, where it is known to impair wound healing by causing damage to cellular components, delaying the inflammatory phase of healing, and inhibiting the formation of new blood vessels. Thereby, the treatment of chronic wounds requires a multidisciplinary approach that addresses the underlying causes of the wound, provides optimal wound care, and promotes wound healing. Among the promising approaches to taking care of chronic wounds, antioxidants are gaining interest since they offer multiple benefits related to skin health. Therefore, in this review, we will highlight the latest advances in the use of natural polymers with antioxidants to generate tissue regeneration microenvironments for skin wound healing.

Abstract
This study developed a new burn wound dressing based on core-shell nanofibers that co-deliver antibiotic and antioxidant drugs. For this purpose, poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-chitosan (CS)/poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) core-shell nanofibers were fabricated through co-axial electrospinning technique. Antibiotic levofloxacin (LEV) and antioxidant quercetin (QS) were incorporated into the core and shell parts of PEO-CS/PLGA nanofibers, respectively. The drugs could bond to the polymer chains through hydrogen bonding, leading to their steady release for 168 h. An in vitro drug release study showed a burst effect followed by sustained release of LEV and QS from the nanofibers due to the Fickian diffusion. The NIH 3T3 fibroblast cell viability of the drug loaded core-shell nanofibers was comparable to that in the control (tissue culture polystyrene) implying biocompatibility of the nanofibers and their cell supportive role. However, there was no significant difference in cell viability between the drug loaded and drug free core-shell nanofibers. According to in vivo experiments, PEO-CS-LEV/PLGA-QS core-shell nanofibers could accelerate the healing process of a burn wound compared to a sterile gauze. Thanks to the synergistic therapeutic effect of LEV and QS, a significantly higher wound closure rate was recorded for the drug loaded core-shell nanofibrous dressing than the drug free nanofibers and control. Conclusively, PEO-CS-LEV/PLGA-QS core-shell nanofibers were shown to be a promising wound healing material that could drive the healing cascade through local co-delivery of LEV and QS to burn wounds.

Abstract
Effectively controlling bacterial infection, reducing the inflammation and promoting vascular regeneration are all essential strategies for wound repair. Nanozyme technology has potential applications in the treatment of infections because its non-antibiotic dependent, topical and noninvasive nature. In wound management, copper-based nanozymes have emerged as viable alternatives to antibiotics. In this study, an ultrasmall cupric enzyme with high enzymatic activity is synthesized and added to a nontoxic, self-healing, injectable cationic guar gum (CG) hydrogel network. The nanozyme exhibits remarkable antioxidant properties under neutral conditions, effectively scavenging reactive nitrogen and oxygen species (RNOS). Under acidic conditions, Cu NDs have peroxide (POD) enzyme-like activity, which allows them to eliminate hydrogen peroxides and produce free radicals locally. Antibacterial experiments show that they can kill bacteria and remove biofilms. It reveals that low concentrations of Cu ND/CG decrease the expression of the inflammatory factors in cells and tissues, effectively controlling inflammatory responses. Cu ND/CG hydrogels also inhibit HIF-1α and promote VEGF expression in the wound with the ability to promote vascular regeneration. In vivo safety assessments reveal a favorable biosafety profile. Cu ND/CG hydrogels offer a promising solution for treating acute and infected wounds, highlighting the potential of innovative nanomaterials in wound healing.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 260:129206. [PMID: 38246452 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.129206] [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: 10/16/2023] [Revised: 12/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/01/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024]
Abstract
The electrospun nanofibers and porous scaffolds hold great promise in regenerative medicine. A novel nanofiber-hydrogel‑silicone tri-layer wound dressing has been designed and fabricated to address the limitations of each platform. The bottom nanofiber layer with a 110 mm diameter meets the wound surface and regulates cell attachment and migration. The middle hydrogel layer was fabricated through the optimization of chemical crosslink formation and freezing-thawing cycles (physical crosslink). The fabricated hydrogel with interconnected porous structure has optimized properties (gel fraction (89.45 %) and porosity (80 %)) for wound dressing application. The silicone layer on the outer surface was designed to fix the wound dressing on the skin and prevent the penetration of pathogens. The scanning electron microscope micrograph showed structural integrity in the tri-layer scaffold. In vivo data showed that the tri-layer scaffold accelerates wound healing in the mice model and angiogenesis in the chorioallantoic membrane model. Therefore, the designed scaffold inspired by the skin's structure can be used as a wound dressing to treat wounds.

The distinctive structural compositions and profusion of functional groups within polysaccharides confer excellent physical/chemical traits as well as distinct restorative involvements. Gels crafted from polysaccharide matrixes serve as a robust defense against bacterial threats, effectively shielding wounds from harm. This comprehensive review delves into wound physiology, accentuating the significance of numerous polysaccharide-based gels in the wound healing context. The discourse encompasses an exploration of polysaccharide hydrogels tailored for diverse wound types, along with an examination of various therapeutic agents encapsulated within hydrogels to facilitate wound repair, incorporating recent patent developments. Within the scope of this manuscript, the perspective of these captivating gels for promoting optimal healing of wounds is vividly depicted. Nevertheless, the pursuit of knowledge remains ongoing, as further research is warranted to bioengineer progressive polysaccharide gels imbued with adaptable features. Such endeavors hold the promise of unlocking substantial potential within the realm of wound healing, propelling us toward multifaceted and sophisticated solutions.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is a potentially life-threatening emergency that can occur at any time or place. Whether traumatic, congenital, surgical, disease-related, or drug-induced, bleeding can lead to severe complications or death. Therefore, the development of efficient hemostatic materials is critical. However, the results and prognosis demonstrated by clinical means of hemostasis do not reach expectations. With the development of technology, novel hemostatic materials have been developed from polysaccharides (chitosan, hyaluronic acid, alginate, cellulose, cyclodextrins, starch, dextran, and carrageenan), peptides (self-assembling peptides), and proteins (silk fibroin, collagen, gelatin, keratin, and thrombin). These new materials exhibit high hemostatic efficacy due to the enhancement or interaction of various hemostatic mechanisms. The main forms include adhesives, sealants, bandages, hemostatic powders, and hemostatic sponges. This article introduces the clotting process and principles of hemostatic methods and reviews the research on polysaccharide-, peptide-, and protein-based hemostatic materials in the last five years. The design ideas and hemostatic principles of polysaccharide-, peptide-, and protein-based hemostatic materials are mainly introduced. Finally, we summarize material designs, advantages, disadvantages, and challenges regarding hemostatic materials.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an oral disease with the highest incidence globally, and plaque control is the key to its treatment. In this study, Microcin C7 was used to treat periodontitis, and a novel injectable temperature-sensitive sustained-release hydrogel was synthesized as an environmentally sensitive carrier for drug delivery. First, modified gelatin was formed from gelatin and glycidyl methacrylate. Then, Microcin C7-laden hydrogel was formed from cross-linking with double bonds between modified gelatin, N-isopropyl acrylamide, and 2-Methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine through radical polymerization, and the model drug Microcin C7 was loaded by electrostatic adsorption. The hydrogel has good temperature sensitivity, self-healing, and injectable properties. In vitro results showed that the hydrogel could slowly and continuously release Microcin C7 with good biocompatibility and biodegradability, with a remarkable antibacterial effect on Porphyromonas gingivalis. It also confirmed the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects of Microcin C7-laden hydrogel in a periodontitis rat model. The results showed that Microcin C7-laden hydrogel is a promising candidate for local drug delivery systems in periodontitis.

Abstract
Chronic wound infection often leads to irregular tissue closure and accompanies delayed healing and economy issues. Developing an ideal wound dressing that can control the occurrence of antibacterial infections and biological responses is highly desirable. In this study, a multifunctional hybrid hydrogel (GS@EG-Cu-CA NPs) containing synthesized thiolated gelatin, methacrylated silk fibroin, and (-)-epigallocatechin gallate-copper ionic-carrageenan nanoparticles (EG-Cu-CA NPs) was engineered by a thio-ene click reaction. The metal-polyphenol EG-Cu-CA NPs were encapsulated with kappa-carrageenan to enhance its aqueous-soluble, mechanical, and bioactive properties and endowed the hydrogel dressing with fascinating antibacterial, antioxidation, and nitric oxide (NO) generation by catalyzing. The hybrid hydrogels also illustrated a favorable cytocompatibility. Benefiting from the thio-ene click reaction, the hybrid hydrogels were injected and photocured rapidly in situ to cover an irregular wound. In an SD rat full-thickness skin-wound-infected model, the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-infected wound covered with GS@EG-Cu-CA NPs was almost completely healed after 10 days. This study presents a facile design of hydrogel dressing incorporating metal-polyphenol nanoparticles, which demonstrates a promising potential way for dealing with effective wound infection management and other complicated wound healings.

Abstract
Bacterial infection in the most mobile area usually leads to delayed healing and functional restriction, which has been a long-term challenge in clinic. Developing hydrogel-based dressings with mechanical flexibly, high adhesive and anti-bacterial properties, will contribute to the healing and therapeutic effects especially for this typical skin wound. In this work, composite hydrogel named PBOF through multi-reversible bonds between polyvinyl alcohol, borax, oligomeric procyanidin and ferric ion demonstrated a 100 times ultra-stretch ability, 24 kPa of highly tissue-adhesive, rapid shape-adaptability within 2 min and self-healing feature within 40 s, was designed as the multifunctional wound dressing for the Staphylococcus aureus-infected skin wound in the mice nape model. Besides, this hydrogel dressing could be easily removed on-demand within 10 min by water. The rapid disassembly of this hydrogel is related to the formation of hydrogen bonds between polyvinyl alcohol and water. Moreover, the multifunctional properties of this hydrogel include strong anti-oxidative, anti-bacteria and hemostasis derived from oligomeric procyanidin and photothermal effect of ferric ion/polyphenol chelate. The killing ratio of the hydrogel on Staphylococcus aureus in infected skin wound reached 90.6% when exposed to 808 nm irradiation for 10 min. Simultaneously, reduced oxidative stress, suppressed inflammation, and promoted angiogenesis all together accelerated wound healing. Therefore, this well-designed multifunctional PBOF hydrogel holds great promise as skin wound dressing especially in the high mobile regions of the body. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: An ultra-stretchable, highly tissue-adhesive, and rapidly shape-adaptive, self-healing and on-demand removable hydrogel based on multi-reversible bonds among polyvinyl alcohol, borax, oligomeric procyanidin and ferric ion is designed as dressing material for infected wound healing in the movable nape. The rapid on-demand removal of the hydrogel relates to the formation of hydrogen bonds between polyvinyl alcohol and water. This hydrogel dressing shows strong antioxidant capacity, rapid hemostasis and photothermal antibacterial ability. This is derived from oligomeric procyanidin and thephotothermal effect of ferric ion/polyphenol chelate, which eliminates bacterial infection, reduces oxidative stress, regulates inflammation, promotes angiogenesis, and finally accelerates the infected wound healing in movable part.

Abstract
With the development of material science, hydrogels with antibacterial and wound healing properties are becoming common. However, injectable hydrogels with simple synthetic methods, low cost, inherent antibacterial properties, and inherent promoting fibroblast growth are rare. In this paper, a novel injectable hydrogel wound dressing based on carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and polyethylenimine (PEI) was discovered and constructed. Since CMCS is rich in -OH and -COOH and PEI is rich in -NH2, the two can interact through strong hydrogen bonds, and it is theoretically feasible to form a gel. By changing their ratio, a series of hydrogels can be obtained by stirring and mixing with 5 wt% CMCS aqueous solution and 5 wt% PEI aqueous solution at volume ratios of 7:3, 5:5, and 3:7. Characterized by morphology, swelling rate, adhesion, rheological properties, antibacterial properties, in vitro biocompatibility, and in vivo animal experiments, the hydrogel has good injectability, biocompatibility, antibacterial (Staphylococcus aureus: 56.7 × 107 CFU/mL in the blank group and 2.5 × 107 CFU/mL in the 5/5 CPH group; Escherichia coli: 66.0 × 107 CFU/mL in the blank group and 8.5 × 107 CFU/mL in the 5/5 CPH group), and certain adhesion (0.71 kPa in the 5/5 CPH group) properties which can promote wound healing (wound healing reached 98.02% within 14 days in the 5/5 CPH group) and repair of cells with broad application prospects.

Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28114523. [PMID: 37298999 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28114523] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Current management for diabetes has stimulated the development of versatile 3D-based hydrogels as in vitro platforms for insulin release and as support for the encapsulation of pancreatic cells and islets of Langerhans. This work aimed to create agarose/fucoidan hydrogels to encapsulate pancreatic cells as a potential biomaterial for diabetes therapeutics. The hydrogels were produced by combining fucoidan (Fu) and agarose (Aga), marine polysaccharides derived from the cell wall of brown and red seaweeds, respectively, and a thermal gelation process. The agarose/fucoidan (AgaFu) blended hydrogels were obtained by dissolving Aga in 3 or 5 wt % Fu aqueous solutions to obtain different proportions (4:10; 5:10, and 7:10 wt). The rheological tests on hydrogels revealed a non-Newtonian and viscoelastic behavior, while the characterization confirmed the presence of the two polymers in the structure of the hydrogels. In addition, the mechanical behavior showed that increasing Aga concentrations resulted in hydrogels with higher Young's modulus. Further, the ability of the developed materials to sustain the viability of human pancreatic cells was assessed by encapsulation of the 1.1B4HP cell line for up to 7 days. The biological assessment of the hydrogels revealed that cultured pancreatic beta cells tended to self-organize and form pseudo-islets during the period studied.

Abstract
Microbial infections due to bacteria, viruses, and molds are a serious threat to both human life and the health of other organisms. To develop inexpensive, easy-to-prepare, efficient, and portable nano-antibacterial materials, as well as to explore the antibacterial prospects of cationic antibacterial agents, in this work, six different membrane materials were prepared by the electrostatic spinning method and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). The materials were tested for antimicrobial properties using a modified AATCC100-200 test method. Under the most suitable spinning conditions, the doping amount of the cationic antimicrobial agent, CTAB, had the greatest influence on the antimicrobial performance. The antimicrobial performance of PCL/PEO/CS/CTAB0.4 was the highest among the prepared materials, with 83.7% effectiveness against S. aureus and 99.9% against E. coli. The antimicrobial performance was found to be stable. In our study, we determined the most suitable spinning ratio to prepare an inexpensive and efficient cationic antimicrobial agent. Biodegradable, high-antimicrobial-activity antimicrobial materials can be applied as films, and this new nanofiber material has shown great potential in wound dressings and as a mask material due to its remarkable antimicrobial efficiency.

[PMID: 36678882 PMCID: PMC9866639 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15010253] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
The main aim of this review is to assess the potential use of natural cross-linking agents, such as genipin, citric acid, tannic acid, epigallocatechin gallate, and vanillin in preparing chemically cross-linked hydrogels for the biomedical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Chemical cross-linking is one of the most important methods that is commonly used to form mechanically strong hydrogels based on biopolymers, such as alginates, chitosan, hyaluronic acid, collagen, gelatin, and fibroin. Moreover, the properties of natural cross-linking agents and their advantages and disadvantages are compared relative to their commonly known synthetic cross-linking counterparts. Nowadays, advanced technologies can facilitate the acquisition of high-purity biomaterials from unreacted components with no additional purification steps. However, while planning and designing a chemical process, energy and water consumption should be limited in order to reduce the risks associated with global warming. However, many synthetic cross-linking agents, such as N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylates, epichlorohydrin, and glutaraldehyde, are harmful to both humans and the environment. One solution to this problem could be the use of bio-cross-linking agents obtained from natural resources, which would eliminate their toxic effects and ensure the safety for humans and the environment.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 223:36-48.

Abstract
Microbial infections and the slow regression of inflammation are major impediments to wound healing. Herein, a tilapia fish skin gelatin-fucose gum-tannic acid (Gel&Fuc-TA) hydrogel wound dressing (Gel&Fuc-TA) was designed to promote wound healing by mixing and reacting tannic acid (TA) with tilapia fish skin gelatin (Gel) and fucoidan (Fuc). Gel&Fuc-TA hydrogel has a good network structure as well as swelling and release properties, and shows excellent antibacterial, antioxidant, cell compatibility, and hemostatic properties. Gel&Fuc-TA hydrogel can promote the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD-31), and alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), enhance collagen deposition, and accelerate wound repair. Gel&Fuc-TA hydrogel can change the wound microbiome, reduce wound microbiome colonization, and decrease the expression of microbiome-related proinflammatory factors, such as lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2), and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Gel&Fuc-TA hydrogel effectively regulates the conversion of wound macrophages to the M2 (anti-inflammatory phenotype) phenotype, decreases the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and increases the expression of arginase-1 (Arg-1), interleukin-10 (IL-10) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), thereby reducing the inflammatory response. In summary, Gel&Fuc-TA hydrogel prepared using a rational green cross-linking reaction can effectively accelerate wound healing.

Protective Effect of Polyphenols Purified from Mallotus oblongfolius on Ethanol-Induced Gastric Mucosal Injury by Regulating Nrf2 and MAPKs Pathways. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122452. [PMID: 36552660 PMCID: PMC9774160 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11122452] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Mallotus oblongifolius (MO), which is rich in polyphenols, is a characteristic tea resource with medicinal value. In this study, a total of 45 polyphenolic components of MO, including narirutin, isoquercitrin, rutin and digallic acid, were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS analysis. In addition, the gastroprotective effect of Mallotus oblongifolius polyphenols (MOP) on ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury in rats was investigated. The rats received anhydrous ethanol after continuous gavage of MOP or lansoprazole for one week. In addition, the macro- and micro-damage induced by ethanol in the gastric tissue was significantly reduced after MOP pretreatment for one week. Further analysis showed that MOP prevented ethanol-induced acute gastric mucosal injury by increasing the expression of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GSH-Px) and decreasing the expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid oxidation product (MDA) and myeloperoxidase (MPO). Meanwhile, MOP inhibited the phosphorylation of p38/ERK/JNK and promoted the activation of the Nrf2 pathway. These results suggested that MOP may be a promising therapeutic target for the prevention of ethanol-induced gastric mucosal injury by improving oxidative stress, inhibiting the p38/ERK/JNK signaling pathways and activating Nrf2 expression.
