Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vascular prosthetic grafts are widely used in vascular surgery; however, graft infection remains a major concern. Silver-coated vascular grafts have demonstrated anti-infection properties in clinical settings; however, whether the silver irons influence foreign body reaction or neointimal hyperplasia remains unclear. METHODS Sodium alginate and hyaluronic acid (SA/HA) hydrogel patches loaded with rhodamine, with or without silver, were fabricated. Patches were implanted in the subcutaneous or abdominal cavity and inferior vena cava of rats. Samples were harvested on day 14 and examined via immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence analyses. RESULTS Silver hydrogel was found to decrease the foreign body reaction; after subcutaneous and abdominal cavity implantation in rats, the capsule was found to be thinner in the silver hydrogel group than in the control hydrogel group. The silver hydrogel group had fewer CD68-positive cells and proliferating cell nuclear antigen and interleukin-33 (IL-33) dual-positive cells than the control hydrogel group. Additionally, the silver hydrogel patch reduced the neointimal thickness after patch venoplasty in rats, and the number of IL-33- and IL-1β-positive cells was lower than that in the control patch. CONCLUSION Silver-loaded SA/HA hydrogel patches decreased the foreign body reaction and venous neointimal hyperplasia in rats by the inhibition of IL-33 expression.

Abstract
We previously showed decellularized fish swim bladder can be used as vascular patch and tube graft in rats, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have showed the capability to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia in different animal models. We hypothesized that decellularized fish swim bladder patch loaded with MSCs (bioinspired patch) can inhibit neointimal hyperplasia in a rat aortic patch angioplasty model. Rat MSCs were grown in vitro and flow cytometry was used to confirm their quality. 3.6 × 105 MSCs were mixed into 100 μl of sodium alginate (SA)/hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogel, two layers of fish swim bladders (5 mm × 5 mm) were sutured together, bioinspired patch was created by injection of hydrogel with MSCs into the space between two layers of fish swim bladder patches. Decellularized rat thoracic aorta patch was used as control. Patches were harvested at days 1 and 14 after implantation. Samples were examined by histology, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. The decellularized rat thoracic aorta patch and the fish swim bladder patch had a similar healing process after implantation. The bioinspired patch had a similar structure like native aorta. Bioinspired patch showed a decreased neointimal thickness (p = .0053), fewer macrophages infiltration (p = .0090), and lower proliferation rate (p = .0291) compared to the double layers fish swim bladder patch group. Decellularized fish swim bladder patch loaded with MSCs can inhibit neointimal hyperplasia effectively. Although this is a preliminary animal study, it may have a potential application in large animals or clinical research.

Adventitial injection of HA/SA hydrogel loaded with PLGA rapamycin nanoparticle inhibits neointimal hyperplasia in a rat aortic wire injury model. Drug Deliv Transl Res 2022; 12:2950-2959.

Abstract
Neointimal hyperplasia is a persistent complication after vascular interventions, and it is also the leading cause of vascular graft restenosis and failure after arterial interventions, so novel treatment methods are needed to treat this complication. We hypothesized that adventitial injection of HA/SA hydrogel loaded with PLGA rapamycin nanoparticle (hydrogel-PLGA-rapamycin) could inhibit neointimal hyperplasia in a rat aortic wire injury model. The HA/SA hydrogel was fabricated by the interaction of hyaluronic acid (HA), sodium alginate (SA), and CaCO3; and loaded with PLGA rapamycin nanoparticle or rhodamine uniformly. A SD rat aortic wire injury induced neointimal hyperplasia model was developed, the control group only received wire injury, the adventitial application group received 10 μL hydrogel-PLGA-rapamycin after wire injury, and the adventitial injection group received 10 μL hydrogel-PLGA-rapamycin injected into the aortic adventitia after wire injury. Tissues were harvested at day 21 and analyzed by histology and immunohistochemical staining. Hydrogel loaded with rhodamine can be successfully injected into the aortic adventitia and was encapsuled by the adventitia. The hydrogel could be seen beneath the adventitia after adventitial injection but was almost degraded at day 21. There was a significantly thinner neointima in the adventitial application group and adventitial injection group compared to the control group (p = 0.0009). There were also significantly fewer CD68+ (macrophages) cells (p = 0.0012), CD3+ (lymphocytes) cells (p = 0.0011), p-mTOR+ cells (p = 0.0019), PCNA+ cells (p = 0.0028) in the adventitial application and adventitial injection groups compared to the control group. The endothelial cells expressed arterial identity markers (Ephrin-B2 and dll-4) in all these three groups. Adventitial injection of hydrogel-PLGA-rapamycin can effectively inhibit neointimal hyperplasia after rat aortic wire injury. This may be a promising drug delivery method and therapeutic choice to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia after vascular interventions.

Abstract
Neointimal hyperplasia is a complex process after vascular interventions, acute platelet deposition and smooth muscle cell proliferation both contributed to this process. There are still no perfect solutions to solve this problem. Rivaroxaban is a novel anticoagulant that has been widely used in clinic, it has a good pharmacological effects both in vivo and in vitro. Chitosan microparticle rapamycin (MP-rapa) was fabricated, interspaces of polyglycolic acid (PGA) scaffold were used as a reservoir of MP-rapa, and the scaffold was coated with hyaluronic acid rivaroxaban (MP-rapa-riva). Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) photographs were taken and water contact angles were measured, rat inferior vena cava (IVC) patch venoplasty model was used; patches were harvested at day 14 and examined by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. SEM photographs showed the microparticles rapamycin were inside the interspace of the scaffold, hyaluronic acid rivaroxaban was also successfully coated onto the surface of the scaffold. There was a thinner neointima, fewer proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) positive cells, fewer macrophages in the MP-rapa and MP-rapa-riva grafts compared to the control PGA graft. The result showed that this scaffold with dual anticoagulation and antiproliferation functions can effectively inhibit venous neointimal hyperplasia, although this is an animal experiment, it showed promising potential clinical application in the future.

Abstract
Background: Patches are commonly used to close blood vessels after vascular surgery. Most currently used materials are either prosthetics or animal-derived; although natural materials, such as a leaf, can be used as a patch, healing of these natural materials is not optimal; rhodamine and rapamycin have been used to show that coating patches with drugs allow drug delivery to inhibit neointimal hyperplasia that may improve patch healing. Wood is abundant, and its stiffness can be reduced with processing; however, whether wood can be used as a vascular patch is not established. We hypothesized that wood can be used as a vascular patch and thus may serve as a novel plant-based biocompatible material.Method: Male Sprague–Dawley rats (aged 6–8 weeks) were used as an inferior vena cava (IVC) patch venoplasty model. After softening, wood patches coated with rhodamine and rapamycin were implanted into the rat subcutaneous tissue, the abdominal cavity, or the IVC. Samples were explanted on day 14 for analysis.Result: Wood patches became soft after processing. Patches showed biocompatibility after implantation into the subcutaneous tissue or the abdominal cavity. After implantation into the IVC, the patches retained mechanical strength. There was a significantly thinner neointima in wood patches coated with rapamycin than control patches (146.7 ± 15.32 μm vs. 524.7 ± 26.81 μm; p = 0.0001). There were CD34 and nestin-positive cells throughout the patch, and neointimal endothelial cells were Eph-B4 and COUP-TFII-positive. There was a significantly smaller number of PCNA and α-actin dual-positive cells in the neointima (p = 0.0003), peri-patch area (p = 0.0198), and adventitia (p = 0.0004) in wood patches coated with rapamycin than control patches. Piezo1 was expressed in the neointima and peri-patch area, and there were decreased CD68 and piezo1 dual-positive cells in wood patches coated with rapamycin compared to control patches.Conclusion: Wood can be used as a novel biomaterial that can be implanted as a vascular patch and also serve as a scaffold for drug delivery. Plant-derived materials may be an alternative to prosthetics or animal-based materials in vascular applications.

Abstract
Introduction: The egg shell membrane (ESM) is always considered as waste, but recent studies have shown that it has the potential to yield rapid re-endothelialization in vitro. We hypothesized that ESM and heparin-conjugated ESM (HESM) can be used as arterial patch in a rat aortic angioplasty model.Method: Sprague-Dawley rat (200 g) abdominal aortic patch angioplasty model was used. Decellularized rat thoracic aorta (TA) patch was used as the control; ESM patch was made of raw chicken egg; heparin-coated ESM (HESM) patch was made by using dopamine; anticoagulation properties were verified using platelet adhesion tests; the TA, ESM, and HESM patches were implanted to the rat aorta and harvested at day 14; and the samples were examined by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence.Result: The ESM patch showed a similar healing process to the TA patch; the cells could migrate and infiltrate into both patches; there was a neointima with von Willebrand factor-positive endothelial cells; the endothelial cells acquired arterial identity with Ephrin-B2- and dll-4-positive cells; there were proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA)-positive cells, and PCNA and alpha smooth muscle actin dual-positive cells in the neointima in both groups. Heparin was conjugated to the patch successfully and showed a strong anticoagulation property in vitro. HESM could decrease mural thrombus formation after rat aortic patch angioplasty.Conclusion: The ESM is a natural scaffold that can be used as a vascular patch; it showed a similar healing process to decellularized TA patch; HESM showed anticoagulation property both in vitro and in vivo; and the ESM may be a promising vascular graft in the clinic.

Abstract
Background: The inflammatory reaction of sutures and oozing after arterial closure depends on the suture material and the amount of oozing surrounding the sutures. Anti-inflammation coatings have been proven to be an effective strategy to decrease this reaction. The aim of this study was to establish an arterial closure oozing model in rats and to test the effect of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticle (NP) rapamycin- or necrostatin-1(NEC-1)-coated sutures on the inflammatory reaction after arterial closure. Methods and Materials: A 10 mm arteriotomy was carried out on the carotid artery of Sprague-Dawley rats and closed using 11-0 sutures. PLGA NP-rapamycin and NEC-1 were made. The 11/0 nylon sutures were coated with PLGA NP-rapamycin and NEC-1. Sutures were examined by scanning electron microscopy, hemolysis test, and cumulative release. The carotid arteriotomy was closed using uncoated PLGA NP-rapamycin- and NP-NEC-1-coated sutures. The carotid artery was harvested on day 7. Tissues were examined by histology and immunohistochemistry. Results: There were severe inflammatory reactions in the oozing arteries compared to the normal healing arteries (P = 0.0192). PLGA NP-rapamycin- and NEC -1-coated sutures reduced foreign body reaction compared to the uncoated sutures. There were significantly smaller number of CD3 (P = 0.0068), CD45 (P = 0.0300), and CD68 (P = 0.0011) cells in the PLGA NP-rapamycin- and NP-NEC-1-coated groups compared to the uncoated group. There was a smaller number of p-mTOR (P = 0.0198)-positive cells in the PLGA NP-rapamycin-coated group compared to the uncoated group. There was a smaller number of TNFα (P = 0.0198)-positive cells in the PLGA NP-NEC-1-coated group compared to the uncoated group. Conclusions: In this rat carotid artery oozing model, PLGA NP-rapamycin- or NP-NEC-1-coated sutures can inhibit inflammatory reaction and foreign body reaction. Although this was a small rodent animal experiment, this coated suture may have a potential clinical application in the future.

Abstract
Novel synthetic prosthesis materials for patch angioplasty are continuously under development and optimization. When a nonwoven-based gelatin membrane is coupled with an electrospun layer of polycaprolactone (PCL), these biohybrid polymer membranes (BHMs) possess higher mechanical properties in aqueous environments. We hypothesized that BHMs can also be used as vascular patches, and we tested our hypothesis in a rat IVC venoplasty and aortic arterioplasty model. Patch venoplasty and arterioplasty were performed in SD rats (200 g), the patches were harvested at day 14, and samples were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. The BHM patches were almost degraded, with few parts remaining after 14 days. There was a line of CD34- and nestin-positive cells on the endothelium, with some cells were CD34 and nestin dual-positive, macrophages and leukocytes also participated in the patch healing process. There were PCNA-positive cells in the neointima and peri-patch area, with some cells were also PCNA and α-actin dual-positive. Arterial neointimal endothelial cells were Ephrin-B2- and dll-4-positive, and venous neointimal endothelial cells were Eph-B4- and COUP-TFII-positive. BHM shares a similar healing process like other patch materials, and BHM may have potential applications in vascular surgery.
