Abstract
A dressing patch made of radially oriented poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) nanofibers was successfully manufactured with a modified electrospinning strategy. The as-electrospun PHBV radially oriented nanofiber dressing patch exhibited uniform and bead-free nanofibrous morphology and innovative radially oriented arrangement, which was demonstrated to possess obviously improved mechanical property, increased surface hydrophilicity and enhanced biological properties compared to the PHBV nanofiber dressing patch control with traditionally randomly oriented pattern. Interestingly, it was found that the radially oriented pattern could induce the cell migration from the periphery to the center along the radially oriented nanofibers in a rapid manner. To further improve the biofunction of PHBV radially oriented nanofiber dressing patch, berberine (Beri, an isoquinoline alkaloid) with two different concentrations were encapsulated into PHBV nanofibers during electrospinning, which were found to present a sustained drug release behavior for nearly one month. Importantly, the addition of Beri could impart the dressing patch with excellent anti-inflammatory property by significantly inhibiting the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors of M1 macrophages, and also showed an additive influence on promoting the proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), as well as inhibiting the growth of E. coli, S. aureus and C. albicans, compared with the Beri-free dressing patch. In the animal studies, the electrospun PHBV radially oriented nanofiber dressing patch loading with high Beri content was found to obviously accelerate the healing process of diabetic mouse full-thickness skin wound with shortened healing time (100% wound closure rate after 18 days' treatment) and improved healing quality (improved collagen deposition, enhanced re-epithelialization and neovascularization and increased hair follicles). In all, this study reported an innovative therapeutic strategy integrating the excellent physical cues of electrospun PHBV radially oriented nanofiber dressing patch with the multiple biological cues of Beri for the effective treatment of hard-to-heal diabetic wounds.
期刊介绍:
Regenerative Biomaterials is an international, interdisciplinary, peer-reviewed journal publishing the latest advances in biomaterials and regenerative medicine. The journal provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, reviews, clinical case reports, and commentaries on the topics relevant to the development of advanced regenerative biomaterials concerning novel regenerative technologies and therapeutic approaches for the regeneration and repair of damaged tissues and organs. The interactions of biomaterials with cells and tissue, especially with stem cells, will be of particular focus.
