However, existing research on diabetic wounds mainly focuses on angiogenesis, bacterial infection and reactive oxygen species, often failing to coordinate neurogenesis and angiogenesis. To coordinate the symbiosis of nerves and blood vessels in the diabetic wounds, we successfully designed a multifunctional chitosan (CS)-based sponges by regulating the structure of CS specifically for diabetic wound healing. This sponge, which facilitates effective exudate transfer and modulates the wound microenvironment, was constructed using hydroxybutyl CS grafted with thioctic acid (TA), named as HCT sponge. When applied in a humid environment, the hydrophobic side chains of the HCT sponge interact with self-assembled hydrophobic domains, forming gel-sponge composite. Experimental results showed that the adhesion strength of the HCT sponge to wet porcine skin was 70.3 kPa. Additionally, the sponge exhibited favorable degradability, cytocompatibility and antioxidant properties. As it is shown in the experiments in vitro, sponge can not only promote cell proliferation, migration, and blood vessel formation, but also promote M2 macrophage polarization. Moreover, the rat liver and femoral artery injury model validated that the HCT sponge can effectively treat heavy bleeding from wounds efficacy through quickly sealing wounds and the formation of multiple hemostatic dams. In vivo studies indicated that the HCT sponge significantly accelerated the diabetic wound healing process compared to the recombinant bovine basic fibroblast growth factor gel, achieving a better recovery from the HCT sponge after 15 days. Pathological results show that the designed novel sponge holds considerable promise for treating diabetic wound, allowing regenerative neurogenesis and angiogenesis at the wound site, which provides a significant potential for further improving clinical applications.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":18310,"journal":{"name":"Materials Today Bio","volume":"29 ","pages":"Article 101361"},"PeriodicalIF":8.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142721311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown to effectively suppress inflammation in the treatment of OA, but they still pose issues such as immune rejection and tumorigenicity. The extracellular matrix (ECM), as a major mediator of MSCs' immunoregulatory effects, offers a cell-free therapy to circumvent these risks. In this study, we developed an ECM-functionalized hydrogel by combining MSC-derived ECM with gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA). To enhance the immunomodulatory potential of MSCs, we pre-stimulated MSCs with the inflammatory factor interleukin-6 (IL-6) present in OA. In vitro results showed that the ECM-functionalized hydrogel promoted M2 macrophage polarization and inhibited the expression of various inflammatory genes, strongly indicating the hydrogel's powerful immunoregulatory capabilities. In an in vivo rat OA model, the ECM-functionalized hydrogel significantly reduced synovial inflammation and cartilage matrix degradation, alleviating the progression of OA. Furthermore, we utilized proteomics and transcriptomics analysis to reveal that the hydrogel accomplished macrophage metabolic reprogramming by regulating mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, thereby reducing inflammation.
