Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose reinforced bilayer hydrogel dressings containing L-arginine-modified polyoxometalate nanoclusters to promote healing of chronic diabetic wounds
CARBOHYDRATE POLYMERS(2024)
摘要
Diabetes-related slow healing of wounds is primarily driven by bacterial infections and angiogenesis disorder and presents a substantial hurdle in clinical treatment. To solve the above problems, an advanced multifunctional hydrogel system based on natural polymer was created here to facilitate wound healing in patients with chronic diabetes. The prepared dressing was composed of an outer hydrogel containing polyvinyl alcohol and hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose in dimethyl sulfoxide and water as binary solvents, and an inner hydrogel containing chitosan quaternary ammonium salt, flaxseed gum, and polyvinyl alcohol. Thus, a polysaccharide based bilayer hydrogel (BH) with superior mechanical strength and biocompatibility was created. This bilayer hydrogel could easily bind to dynamic tissue surfaces, thereby generating a protective barrier. Meanwhile, L-arginine-modified polyoxometalate (POM@L-Arg) nanoclusters were loaded in the inner hydrogel. They released NO when stimulated by the peroxide microenvironment of diabetic wounds. NO as a signal molecule regulated vascular tension and promoted cell proliferation and migration. Additionally, because of the synergistic effect of NO and the chitosan quaternary ammonium salt, the hydrogel system exhibited excellent antibacterial performance. The NO released reduced the levels of proinflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-alpha in the diabetic wounds, which thus accelerated wound healing. In short, BH + POM@L-Arg is expected to serve as an ideal wound dressing as it exerts a good promotion effect on diabetes-related wound healing.
