Cu-MOF loaded chitosan based freeze-dried highly porous dressings with anti-biofilm and pro-angiogenic activities accelerated Pseudomonas aeruginosa infected wounds healing in rats. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 271:132443. [PMID: 38761913 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.132443] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2024] [Revised: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/20/2024]
Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)-based therapy opens a new area for antibiotic-drug free infections treatment. In the present study, chitosan membranes (CS) loaded with two concentrations of copper-MOF 10 mg/20 ml (Cu-MOF10/CS) & 20 mg/20 ml (Cu-MOF20/CS) were prepared by a simple lyophilization procedure. FTIR spectra of Cu-MOF10/CS and Cu-MOF20/CS dressings confirmed absence of any undesirable chemical changes after loading Cu-MOF. The SEM images of the synthesized materials (CS, Cu-MOF10/CS & Cu-MOF20/CS) showed interconnected porous structures. Cytocompatibility of the materials was confirmed by fibroblasts cells culturing and the materials were hemocompatible, with blood clotting index <5 %. Cu-MOF20/CS showed comparatively higher effective antibacterial activity against the tested strains; E. coli (149.2 %), P. aeruginosa (165 %) S. aureus (117.8 %) and MRSA (142 %) as compared to Amikacin, CS and Cu-MOF10/CS membranes. Similarly, Cu-MOF20/CS dressing significantly eradicated the biofilms; P. aeruginosa (37 %) and MRSA (52 %) respectively. In full thickness infected wound rat model, on day 23, Cu-MOF10/CS and Cu-MOF20/CS promoted wound healing up to 87.7 % and 82 % respectively. H&E staining of wounded tissues treated with Cu-MOF10/CS & Cu-MOF20/CS demonstrated enhanced neovascularization and re-epithelization along-with reduced inflammation, while trichrome staining exhibited increased collagen deposition. Overall, this study declares Cu-MOFs loaded chitosan dressings a multifunctional platform for the healing of infected wounds.

El Halawany M, Khashaba M, AbouGhaly MHH, Latif R. Tranexamic acid loaded in a physically crosslinked trilaminate dressing for local hemorrhage control: Preparation, characterization, and in-vivo assessment using two different animal models. Int J Pharm 2024; 659:124219. [PMID: 38734277 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124219] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2024] [Revised: 05/07/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
This work aimed at formulating a trilaminate dressing loaded with tranexamic acid. It consisted of a layer of 3 % sodium hyaluronate to initiate hemostasis. It was followed by a mixed porous layer of 5 % polyvinyl alcohol and 2 % kappa-carrageenan. This layer acted as a drug reservoir that controlled its release. The third layer was 5 % ethyl cellulose backing layer for unidirectional release of tranexamic acid towards the wound. The 3 layers were physically crosslinked by hydrogen bonding as confirmed by Infrared spectroscopy. Swelling and release studies were performed, and results proposed that increasing number of layers decreased swelling properties and sustained release of tranexamic acid for 8 h. In vitro blood coagulation study was performed using human blood and showed that the dressing significantly decreased coagulation time by 70.5 % compared to the negative control. In vivo hemostatic activity was evaluated using tail amputation model in Wistar rats. Statistical analysis showed the dressing could stop bleeding in a punctured artery of the rat tail faster than the negative control by 59 %. Cranial bone defect model in New Zealand rabbits was performed to check for bone hemostasis and showed significant decrease in the hemostatic time by 80 % compared to the control.

Abstract
This study aimed to encapsulate Malva sylvestris extract (MSE) into chitosan-carrageenan (CH-KC) fibers using the electrospinning technique and monitor the freshness of silver carp fillets during the refrigerated storage conditions for 8 days. The CH-KC + MSE 4 % fiber mats were red at pH values lower than 3, purple at pH 4-6, dark blue at pH 7, green at pH 8-10, and brown at pH 11-12. The tensile strength, elongation at break, water vapor permeability, oxygen transmission rate, moisture content, and water solubility of fabricated fiber mats were 7.71-11.02 MPa, 13.12 %-30.00 %, 7.35-20.01 × 10-4 g mm/m2 h Pa, 3.81-8.23 cm3/m2 h, 15.74 %-27.34 %, and 3.90 %-7.56 %, respectively. Regarding the potential application of a fabricated indicator for freshness monitoring of silver carp fillets, total viable count, psychrotrophic bacterial count, pH, and total volatile basic nitrogen reached 8.91 log CFU/g, 8.03 log CFU/g, 8.10, and 40.18 mg N/100 g at the end of the study, respectively. Meanwhile, the CH-KC + MSE 4 % fiber mat color changed from white to green. These findings suggest that CH-KC + MSE 4 % fiber mats can be further utilized in the food industry to control the freshness of refrigerated silver carp fillets.

Abstract
Nanocellulose-based tissue adhesives show promise for achieving rapid hemostasis and effective wound healing. Conventional methods, such as sutures and staples, have limitations, prompting the exploration of bioadhesives for direct wound adhesion and minimal tissue damage. Nanocellulose, a hydrolysis product of cellulose, exhibits superior biocompatibility and multifunctional properties, gaining interest as a base material for bioadhesive development. This study explores the potential of nanocellulose-based adhesives for hemostasis and wound healing using 3D printing techniques. Nanocellulose enables the creation of biodegradable adhesives with minimal adverse effects and opens avenues for advanced wound healing and complex tissue regeneration, such as skin, blood vessels, lungs, cartilage, and muscle. This study reviews recent trends in various nanocellulose-based 3D printed hydrogel patches for tissue engineering applications. The review also introduces various types of nanocellulose and their synthesis, surface modification, and bioadhesive fabrication techniques via 3D printing for smart wound healing.

Development of chitosan/carrageenan macrobeads for encapsulation of Paenibacillus polymyxa and its biocontrol efficiency against clubroot disease in Brassica crops. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 264:130323.

Abstract
Clubroot, caused by the obligate parasite Plasmodiophora brassicae, is one of the most important diseases of brassicas. The antagonistic bacterium Paenibacillus polymyxa ZF129 can suppress clubroot while its effectiveness is often unstable. To control clubroot more effectively, the macrobeads for controlled release of ZF129 were prepared using microencapsulation technology. Macrobeads with various ratios of chitosan (2 % w/w): carrageenan (0.3 % w/v) were prepared by an ionotropic gelation method and the bacteria ZF129 was loaded into macrobeads. The 1:1 chitosan: carrageenan showed the maximum swelling ratio (634 %), and the maximum survival rate (61.52 ± 1.12 %) after freeze-drying. Fourier transform infrared revealed the electrostatic interactions between chitosan and carrageenan. The macrobeads can efficiently release ZF129 strains into phosphate buffer solution and reach equilibrium in 48 h. The maximum number of bacteria cells to be released in the soil was observed after 25-30 days. The control efficacy of ZF129 macrobeads (chitosan: carrageenan, 1:1) and ZF129 culture against clubroot disease was 76.33 ± 3.65 % and 59.76 ± 4.43 % in greenhouse experiments, respectively and the control efficacy was calculated as 60.74 ± 5.00 % for ZF129 macrobeads and 40.94 ± 4.05 % for ZF129 culture under field experiments, respectively. The ZF129 macrobeads had significant growth-promoting effects on pak choi and Chinese cabbage. The encapsulation method described in this study is a prudent approach toward efficient biopesticides utilization with reduced environmental implications.

Abstract
The development of intricated and interconnected porous mats is desired for many applications in biomedicine and other relevant fields. The mats that comprise the use of natural, bioactive, and biodegradable polymers are the focus of current research activities. In the present work, crosslinked fibers with improved characteristics were produced by incorporating 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) into a polymer formulation containing polycaprolactone (PCL), chitosan (CS), and κappa-carrageenan (κ-C). A slight variation of formic acid (FA)/acetic acid (AA) ratio used as a solvent system, significantly affected the characteristics of the produced fiber mats. Both polysaccharides and BDDE played a major role in tailoring mechanical properties when fibrous scaffolds were reticulated under KCl-mediated basic conditions for determined periods of time at 50 °C. In vitro biological assessment of the electrospun fiber mats revealed proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells when incubated for 1 and 7 days. After staining the cells with 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI)/rhodamine phalloidin an autofluorescence response was observed by fluorescence microscopy in the scaffold manufactured using a solvent with higher FA/AA ratio due to the formation of microfibers. The results demonstrated the potential of the BDDE-crosslinked PCL/CS/κ-C electrospun fibers as promising materials for biomedical applications that may include soft and bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Various types of skin wounds pose challenges in terms of healing and susceptibility to infection, which can have a significant impact on physical and mental well-being, and in severe cases, may result in amputation. Conventional wound dressings often fail to provide optimal support for these wounds, thereby impeding the healing process. As a result, there has been considerable interest in the development of multifunctional polymer matrix hydrogel scaffolds for wound healing. This review offers a comprehensive review of the characteristics of polysaccharide-based hydrogel scaffolds, as well as their applications in different types of wounds. Additionally, it evaluates the advantages and disadvantages associated with various types of multifunctional polymer and polysaccharide-based hydrogel scaffolds. The objective is to provide a theoretical foundation for the utilization of multifunctional hydrogel scaffolds in promoting wound healing.

Abstract
Chitosan (CS)-based scaffolds loaded with Pinus radiata extract bark (PE) and grape seed extract (GSE) were successfully developed for wound dressing applications. The effects of incorporating GSE and PE in CS scaffolds were investigated in relation to their physicochemical and biological properties. All scaffolds exhibited porous structures with the ability to absorb more than 70 times their weight when contacted with blood and phosphate buffer solution. The incorporation of GSE and PE into the CS scaffolds increased their blood absorption ability and degradation rates over time. All scaffolds showed a clotting ability above 95%, with their surfaces being favorable for red blood cell attachment. Both GSE and PE were released from the CS scaffolds in a sustained manner. Scaffolds loaded with GSE and PE inhibited the bacterial activity of S. aureus and E. coli by 40% and 44% after 24 h testing. In vitro cell viability studies demonstrated that all scaffolds were nontoxic to HaCaT cells. Importantly, the addition of GSE and PE further increased cell viability compared to that of the CS scaffold. This study provides a new synthesis method to immobilize GSE and PE on CS scaffolds, enabling the formation of novel material platforms with a high potential for wound dressing applications.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is one of the most critical obstacles in wound healing, and severe bacterial infections can lead to inflammatory conditions and delay the healing process. Herein, a novel hydrogel based on polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), agar, and silk-AgNPs was prepared using a straightforward one-pot physical cross-linking method. The in situ synthesis of AgNPs in hydrogels exploited the reducibility of tyrosine (Tyr tyrosine) in silk fibroin, which endowed the hydrogels with outstanding antibacterial qualities. In addition, the strong hydrogen bond cross-linked networks of agar and the crystallites formed by PVA as the physical cross-linked double network of the hydrogel gave it excellent mechanical stability. The PVA/agar/SF-AgNPs (PASA) hydrogels exhibited excellent water absorption, porosity, and significant antibacterial effects against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Furthermore, in vivo experimental results confirmed that the PASA hydrogel significantly promoted wound repair and skin tissue reconstruction by reducing inflammation and promoting collagen deposition. Immunofluorescence staining showed that the PASA hydrogel enhanced CD31 expression to promote angiogenesis while decreasing CD68 expression to reduce inflammation. Overall, the novel PASA hydrogel showed great potential for bacterial infection wound management.

Polysaccharide-based (kappa carrageenan/carboxymethyl chitosan) nanofibrous membrane loaded with antifibrinolytic drug for rapid hemostasis- in vitro and in vivo evaluation. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 247:125786. [PMID: 37451380 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.125786] [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: 02/15/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023]
Abstract
This work aimed to establish a novel membrane consisting of hemostatic polysaccharides, kappa-carrageenan (KC), and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) in tandem with polyvinyl alcohol that spun together as a matrix and loaded with tranexamic acid (TXA) as antifibrinolytic agent for further coagulation effect during and after oral surgeries. The electrospinning of KC was done for the first time and in comparison of CMC has better hemostatic efficacy. The effect of the hemostat was investigated by its surface morphology (SEM), FTIR/ATR analysis, swelling behavior in both PBS and blood, hydrophilicity, porosity, mechanical properties, and cumulative release rate. The effect of materials and the drug concentration ratio were considered. The effect of acetic acid percent in aqueous solutions of CMC/PVA and KC/PVA on morphology was investigated. The cell culture assay showed that all membranes interacted well (98 %) with fibroblast cells attached and grown on the fabricated substrate. Furthermore, the membranes are evaluated by clotting time, whole blood clotting, hemocompatibility, and platelet and RBC adhesion tests. Also, the hemostatic performance of the membrane was analyzed in vivo, using the tail and liver bleeding model in rats. Therefore, TXA loading into CMC and KC dressing could be an attractive hemostatic system for various clinical applications.

Abstract
In recent years, health-care providers have seen more patients with difficult-to-treat wounds and burns. The biopolymer-based wound dressing protects the wounded area while assisting in the recovery of dermal and epithelial tissues throughout the healing process. The overall number of patients with chronic lesions has been expanding due to developing society, over weight, and cardiovascular illness. For the treatment of chronic wounds, there is an increasing demand for the development of ideal wound dressing materials with excellent properties such as antibacterial activity, biocompatibility, free radical scavenging capacity, non-adherent property, hydrophilicity, and so on. Nevertheless, owing to the above mention properties, natural polymers are being used for several key functions of biomedicine like narcotic distribution systems, tissue manufacturing, bandages, and so on. Accordingly, the significance of these bio-based polymers interfered with healing functions that lead to informing and inspiring youth and scientist researchers worldwide to grab with these far-reaching areas of medicine and biology. The review highlights the physiochemical properties of natural polymers, the biological evaluation of various materials as wound dressings, their synthesis and mechanical properties, clinical status, challenges, and future perspectives.

Abstract
Polysaccharides κ-carrageenan (κ-Car) have become a predominant source in developing bioactive materials. We aimed to develop biopolymer composite materials of κ-Car with coriander essential oil (CEO) (κ-Car-CEO) films for fibroblast-associated wound healing. Initially, we loaded the CEO in to κ-Car and CEO through homogenization and ultrasonication to fabricate composite film bioactive materials. After performing morphological and chemical characterizations, we validated the developed material functionalities in both in vitro and in vivo models. The chemical and morphological analysis with physical structure, swelling ratio, encapsulation efficiency, CEO release, and water barrier properties of films examined and showed the structural interaction of κ-Car and CEO-loaded into the polymer network. Furthermore, the bioactive applications of CEO release showed initial burst release followed by controlled release from the κ-Car composite film with fibroblast (L929) cell adhesive capabilities and mechanosensing. Our results proved that the CEO-loaded into the κ-Car film impacts cell adhesion, F-actin organization, and collagen synthesis, followed by in vitro mechanosensing activation, further promoting wound healing in vivo. Our innovative perspectives of active polysaccharide (κ-Car)-based CEO functional film materials could potentially accomplish regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Recurrent infection of chronic wounds remains a major clinical challenge. Recently, the hydrogel antibacterial materials have attracted extensive attention for preventing infection in wound healing. In this study, a hybrid hydrogel made of polyvinyl alcohol - iodine (PAI), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and carbamino quantum dot (CQDs) was prepared by the cross-linking of hydrogen bonds, named as polyvinyl alcohol‑iodine/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose/carbon quantum dots (PAI/CMC/CQDs). The composite hydrogels exhibited the outstanding photothermal conversion efficiency with near infrared (NIR) light irradiation, and the high antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). Meanwhile, the elevated temperature of the composite hydrogels up to ~45 °C was able to stimulate the migration of epidermal cell to accelerate skin repair. Given that PAI and CQDs could respond to different pH values (5-8), the real-time would pH information was provided by the visible light and fluorescent light dual monitoring system by naked eye. Moreover, the visible-fluorescent images could be collected and transformed into RGB signals to quantify the would pH levels, avoiding secondary injuries caused by frequent dressing changes. PAI/CMC/CQDs was demonstrated the significant therapeutic effect on chronic wounds by eliminating bacterial infections and promoting skin repair under the smart RGB monitoring system.

Abstract
In this study, we report atomically precise gold nanoclusters-embedded natural polysaccharide carrageenan as a novel hydrogel platform for single near-infrared light-triggered photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) antibacterial therapy. Briefly, atomically precise captopril-capped Au nanoclusters (Au25Capt18) prepared by an alkaline NaBH4 reduction method and then embedded them into the biosafe carrageenan to achieve superior PTT and PDT dual-mode antibacterial effect. In this platform, the embedded Au25Capt18, as simple-component phototherapeutic agents, exhibit superior thermal effects and singlet oxygen generation under a single near-infrared (NIR, 808 nm) light irradiation, which enables rapid elimination of bacteria. Carrageenan endows the hydrogel platform with superior gelation characteristics and wound microenvironmental regulation. The Au25Capt18-embedded hydrogels exhibited good water retention, hemostasis, and breathability, providing a favorable niche environment for promoting wound healing. In vitro experiments confirmed the excellent antibacterial activity of the Au25Capt18 hydrogels against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli. The antibacterial effect and promoting wound healing function were further validated in a S. aureus-infected wound model. Biosafety evaluation showed that the Au25Capt18 hydrogel has excellent biocompatibility. This PTT/PDT dual-mode therapy offers an alternative strategy for battling bacterial infections without antibiotics. More importantly, this hydrogel is facile to prepare which is helpful for expanding applications.

Abstract
Natural polymers are very widespread in the world, which is why it is so important to know about the possibilities of their use. Chitin is the second most abundant reproducible natural polymer in nature; however, it is insoluble in water and basic solvents. Chitin is an unused waste of the food industry, for which there are possibilities of secondary management. The research led to obtaining a soluble, environmentally friendly form of chitin, which has found potential applications in the many fields, e.g., medicine, cosmetics, food and textile industries, agriculture, etc. The deacetylated form of chitin, which is chitosan, has a number of beneficial properties and wide possibilities of modification. Modification possibilities mean that we can obtain chitosan with the desired functional properties, facilitating, for example, the processing of this polymer and expanding the possibilities of its application, also as biomimetic materials. The review contains a rich description of the possibilities of modifying chitin and chitosan and the main directions of their application, and life cycle assessment (LCA)-from the source of the polymer through production materials to various applications with the reduction of waste.

Abstract
The human skin serves as the body’s first line of defense against the environment. Diabetes mellitus (DM) and 2nd–4th degree burns, on the other hand, affect the skin’s protective barrier features. Burn wounds, hypermetabolic state, and hyperglycemia compromise the
immune system leading to chronic wound healing. Unlike acute wound healing processes, chronic wounds are affected by reinfections which can lead to limb amputation or death. The conventional wound dressing techniques used to protect the wound and provide an optimal environment for repair have
their limitations. Various nanomaterials have been produced that exhibit distinct features to tackle issues affecting wound repair mechanisms. This review discusses the emerging technologies that have been designed to improve wound care upon skin injury. To ensure rapid healing and possibly
prevent scarring, different nanomaterials can be applied at different stages of healing (hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, remodeling).

Abstract
Wound dressing design is a dynamic and rapidly growing field of the medical wound-care market worldwide. Advances in technology have resulted in the development of a wide range of wound dressings that treat different types of wounds by targeting the four phases of healing. The ideal wound dressing should perform rapid healing; preserve the body’s water content; be oxygen permeable, non-adherent on the wound and hypoallergenic; and provide a barrier against external contaminants—at a reasonable cost and with minimal inconvenience to the patient. Therefore, choosing the best dressing should be based on what the wound needs and what the dressing does to achieve complete regeneration and restoration of the skin’s structure and function. Biopolymers, such as alginate (ALG), chitosan (Cs), collagen (Col), hyaluronic acid (HA) and silk fibroin (SF), are extensively used in wound management due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability and similarity to macromolecules recognized by the human body. However, most of the formulations based on biopolymers still show various issues; thus, strategies to combine them with molecular biology approaches represent the future of wound healing. Therefore, this article provides an overview of biopolymers’ roles in wound physiology as a perspective on the development of a new generation of enhanced, naturally inspired, smart wound dressings based on blood products, stem cells and growth factors.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is a prime cause of death in civilian and military traumatic injuries, whereby a significant proportion of death and complications occur prior to paramedic arrival and hospital resuscitation. Hence, it is crucial to develop hemostatic materials that are able to be applied by simple processes and allow control over bleeding by inducing rapid hemostasis, non-invasively, until subjects receive necessary medical care. This tutorial review discusses recent advances in synthesis and fabrication of degradable hemostatic nanomaterials and nanocomposites. Control of assembly and fine-tuning of composition of absorbable (i.e., degradable) hemostatic supramolecular structures and nanoconstructs have afforded the development of smart devices and scaffolds capable of efficiently controlling bleeding while degrading over time, thereby reducing surgical operation times and hospitalization duration. The nanoconstructs that are highlighted have demonstrated hemostatic efficiency pre-clinically in animal models, while also sharing characteristics of degradability, bioabsorbability and presence of nano-assemblies within their compositions.

The factors delaying the wound-healing process include obesity, stress, microbial infection, aging, edema, inadequate nutrition, poor oxygenation, diabetes, and implant complications. Biomaterials are being developed and fabricated to accelerate the healing of chronic wounds, including hydrogels, nanofibrous, composite, foam, spongy, bilayered, and trilayered scaffolds. Some recent advances in biomaterials development for healing both chronic and acute wounds are extensively compiled here. In addition, various properties of biomaterials for wound-healing applications and how they affect their performance are reviewed. Based on the recent literature, trilayered constructs appear to be a convincing candidate for the healing of chronic wounds and complete skin regeneration because they mimic the full thickness of skin: epidermis, dermis, and the hypodermis. This type of scaffold provides a dense superficial layer, a bioactive middle layer, and a porous lower layer to aid the wound-healing process. The hydrophilicity of scaffolds aids cell attachment, cell proliferation, and protein adhesion. Other scaffold characteristics such as porosity, biodegradability, mechanical properties, and gas permeability help with cell accommodation, proliferation, migration, differentiation, and the release of bioactive factors.

Abstract
This study sought to prepare powder hemostats based on iota-carrageenan (ιC), xyloglucan (XYL), l-serine (SER), and tranexamic acid (TA). The powder form was chosen because it enables the hemostat to be used in wounds of any shape and depth. The powder hemostats showed irregular shapes and specific surface areas ranging from 34 to 46 m2/g. Increasing TA amount decreases the specific surface area, bulk density, water and blood absorption, and the antibacterial activities of the powder hemostats, but not the water retention ability. Conversely, in vitro biodegradation was positively impacted by increasing the TA content in the powder hemostats. In both the in vitro and in vivo tests, powder hemostats showed reduced bleeding time, significant adhesion of red blood cells, great hemocompatibility, moderate antioxidant activity, and high biocompatibility. These findings shed new light on designing powder hemostats with intrinsic antibacterial and antioxidant activity and excellent hemostatic performance.

Abstract
Epistaxis is one of the most common otorhinolaryngology emergencies worldwide. Although there are currently several treatments available, they present several disadvantages. This, in addition to the increasing social need of being environmentally respectful, led us to investigate whether a sponge-like scaffold (SP–CH) produced from natural by-products of the food industry — soy protein and β-chitin — can be employed as a nasal pack for the treatment of epistaxis. To evaluate the potential of our material as a nasal pack, it was compared with two of the most commonly used nasal packs in the clinic: a basic gauze and the gold standard Merocel®. Our SP-CH presented great physicochemical and mechanical properties, lost weight in aqueous medium, and could even partially degrade when incubated in blood. It was shown to be both biocompatible and hemocompatible in vitro, clearing up any doubt about its safety. It showed increased blood clotting capacity in vitro, as well as increased capacity to bind both red blood cells and platelets, compared to the standard gauze and Merocel®. Finally, a rat-tail amputation model revealed that our SP-CH could even reduce bleeding time in vivo. This work, carried out from a circular economy approach, demonstrates that a green strategy can be followed to manufacture nasal packs using valorized by-products of the food industry, with equal or even better hemostatic properties than the gold standard in the clinic.

Abstract
Excessive bleeding in traumatic hemorrhage is the primary concern for natural wound healing and the main reason for trauma deaths. The three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting of bioinks offers the desired structural complexity vital for hemostasis activity and targeted cell proliferation in rapid and controlled wound healing. However, it is challenging to develop suitable bioinks to fabricate specific 3D scaffolds desirable in wound healing. In this work, a 3D composite scaffold is designed using bioprinting technology and synergistic hemostasis mechanisms of cellulose nanofibrils (TCNFs), chitosan, and casein to control blood loss in traumatic hemorrhage. Bioinks that consist of casein bioconjugated TCNF (with a casein content of 104.5 ± 34.1 mg/g) using the carbodiimide cross-linker chemistry were subjected to bioprinting for customizable 3D scaffold fabrication. Further, the 3D composite scaffolds were in situ cross-linked using a green ionic complexation approach. The covalent conjugation among TCNF, casein, and chitosan was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. The in vitro hemostasis activity of the 3D composite scaffold was analyzed by a human thrombin-antithrombin (TAT) assay and adsorption of red blood cells (RBCs) and platelets. The 3D composite scaffold had a better swelling behavior and a faster whole blood clotting rate at each time point than the 3D TCNF scaffold and commercial cellulose-based dressings. The TAT assay demonstrated that the 3D composite scaffold could form a higher content of thrombin (663.29 pg/mL) and stable blood clot compared to a cellulosic pad (580.35 pg/mL), 3D TCNF (457.78 pg/mL), and cellulosic gauze (328.92 pg/mL), which are essential for faster blood coagulation. In addition, the 3D composite scaffold had a lower blood clotting index (23.34%) than the 3D TCNF scaffold (41.93%), suggesting higher efficiencies for RBC entrapping to induce blood clotting. The in vivo cytocompatibility was evaluated by a 3D cell culture study, and results showed that the 3D composite scaffold could promote growth and proliferation of NIH 3T3 fibroblast cells, which is vital for wound healing. Cellulase-based in vitro deconstruction of the 3D composite scaffold showed significant weight loss (80 ± 5%) compared to the lysozyme hydrolysis (22 ± 5%) after 28 days of incubation, suggesting the biodegradation potential of the composite scaffold. In conclusion, this study proposes efficient prospects to develop a 3D composite scaffold from bioprinting of TCNF-based bioinks that can accelerate blood clotting and wound healing, suggesting its potential application in reducing blood loss during traumatic hemorrhage.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is one of the greatest threats to life on the battlefield, accounting for 50% of total deaths. Nearly 86% of combat deaths occur within the first 30 min after wounding. While external wound injuries can be treated mostly using visual inspection, abdominal or internal hemorrhages are more challenging to treat with regular hemostatic dressings because of deep wounds and points of injury that cannot be located properly. The need to treat trauma wounds from limbs, abdomen, liver, stomach, colon, spleen, arterial, venous, and/or parenchymal hemorrhage accompanied by severe bleeding requires an immediate solution that the first responders can apply to reduce rapid exsanguinations from external wounds, including in military operations. This necessitates the development of a unique, easy-to-use, FDA-approved hemostatic treatment that can deliver the agent in less than 30 s and stop bleeding within the first 1 to 2 min at the point of injury without application of manual pressure on the wounded area.

Abstract
Bacterial infections are the major challenges of wound treatment in current clinical applications. In this study, Three-dimensional (3D) antibacterial wound dressing has been fabricated via introducing N-halamine/TiO2 to gelatin methacrylate and xanthan gum. The prepared 3D printed dressings showed ideal swelling ratio and excellent water uptake efficiency. TiO2 nanoparticles were introduced by in-situ to improve the ultraviolet stability of N-halamines. The 3D printed GX2-TiO2-PSPH-Cl prepared dressings containing titanium dioxide retained 0.19% active chlorine after ultraviolet irradiation for 20 min, which was much higher than that of N-halamine dressings without the addition of TiO2. The 3D printed dressings showed good antibacterial activity, and 100% of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Staphylococcus aureus were inactivated after 60 min of contact. Furthermore, the biofilm test indicated that the 3D antibacterial dressings were able to inhibit the formation of bacterial biofilm. The 3D printed dressings possess outstanding biocompatibility. Moreover, in vivo data demonstrated that the 3D printed dressings could significantly accelerate wound healing in a mouse model, indicating that the developed 3D printed dressings are ideal candidates for wound treatment.

Abstract
Post-extraction bleeding and alveolar bone resorption are the two frequently encountered complications after tooth extraction that result in poor healing and rehabilitation difficulties. The present study covalently bonded polyphosphate onto a collagen scaffold (P-CS) by crosslinking. The P-CS demonstrated improved hemostatic property in a healthy rat model and an anticoagulant-treated rat model. This improvement is attributed to the increase in hydrophilicity, increased thrombin generation, platelet activation and stimulation of the intrinsic coagulation pathway. In addition, the P-CS promoted the in-situ bone regeneration and alveolar ridge preservation in a rat alveolar bone defect model. The promotion is attributed to enhanced osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells. Osteogenesis was improved by both polyphosphate and blood clots. Taken together, P-CS possesses favorable hemostasis and alveolar ridge preservation capability. It may be used as an effective treatment option for post-extraction bleeding and alveolar bone loss. Statement of significance Collagen scaffold is commonly used for the treatment of post-extraction bleeding and alveolar bone loss after tooth extraction. However, its application is hampered by insufficient hemostatic and osteoinductive property. Crosslinking polyphosphate with collagen produces a modified collagen scaffold that possesses improved hemostatic performance and augmented bone regeneration potential. Polyphosphate-crosslinked collagen scaffold (P-CS) showed better hemostatic effect in healthy or anticoagulant-treated rats. The promoted bone regeneration ability of P-CS might also be related to the clot alteration caused by polyphosphate. P-CS has therapeutic potential in bleeding control and alveolar ridge preservation after tooth extraction.

Abstract
In humans, excessive bleeding during civilian accidents, and surgery account for 40% of the mortality worldwide. Hence, the development of biocompatible hemostatic materials useful for rapid hemorrhage control has become a fundamental research problem in the biomedicine community. In this study, we prepared biocompatible gelatin-tannic acid-κ-carrageenan (GTC) microparticles using a facile Tween 80 stabilized water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion method for rapid hemostasis. The formation of GTC microparticles occurs via polyelectrolyte interactions between gelatin and k-carrageenan as well as hydrogen bonding from tannic acid. In addition, the GTC microparticles formulated in our study showed high water adsorption ability with a low volume-swelling ratio for a particle size of 46 μm. In addition, the GTC microparticles displayed >80% biocompatibility in NIH 3T3 cells and <5% hemocompatibility in hemolysis ratio tests. Notably, the GTC microparticles induced rapid blood clotting in 50 s and blood loss of approximately 46 mg in the femoral artery of BALB/c female mice with a 100% survival rate that was significantly better than the control group (blood clot time:250 s; blood loss: 259 mg). Thus, the findings from our study collectively suggest that GTC microparticles may play a promising clinical role in medical applications to tackle hemorrhage control.

Abstract
Wound healing, one of the most complex processes in the human body, involves the spatial and temporal synchronization of a variety of cell types with distinct roles. Slow or nonhealing skin wounds have potentially life-threatening consequences, ranging from infection to scar, clot, and hemorrhage. Recently, the advent of triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) has brought about a plethora of self-powered wound healing opportunities, owing to their pertinent features, including wide range choices of constitutive biocompatible materials, simple fabrication, portable size, high output power, and low cost. Herein, a comprehensive review of TENGs as an emerging biotechnology for wound healing applications is presented and covered from three unique aspects: electrical stimulation, antibacterial activity, and drug delivery. To provide a broader context of TENGs applicable to wound healing applications, state-of-the-art designs are presented and discussed in each section. Although some challenges remain, TENGs are proving to be a promising platform for human-centric therapeutics in the era of Internet of Things. Consequently, TENGs for wound healing are expected to provide a new solution in wound management and play an essential role in the future of point-of-care interventions.

Abstract
Wounds are one of the most common health issues, and the cost of wound care and healing has continued to increase over the past decade. The first step in wound healing is haemostasis, and the development of haemostatic materials that aid wound healing has accelerated in the past 5 years. Numerous haemostatic materials have been fabricated, composed of different active components (including natural polymers, synthetic polymers, silicon-based materials and metal-containing materials) and in various forms (including sponges, hydrogels, nanofibres and particles). In this Review, we provide an overview of haemostatic materials in wound healing, focusing on their chemical design and operation. We describe the physiological process of haemostasis to elucidate the principles that underpin the design of haemostatic wound dressings. We also highlight the advantages and limitations of the different active components and forms of haemostatic materials. The main challenges and future directions in the development of haemostatic materials for wound healing are proposed.

Abstract
In this paper, polyvinyl alcohol/Ag-Metal-organic framework (PVA/Ag@MOF) and polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan (PVA/CS) were used as the inner and outer layers to successfully prepare a bilayer composite hydrogel for tissue engineering scaffold. The performance of bilayer hydrogels was evaluated. The outer layer (PVA/CS) has a uniform pore size distribution, good water retention, biocompatibility and cell adhesion ability. The inner layer (PVA/Ag@MOF) has good antibacterial activity and poor biocompatibility. PVA, PVA/0.1%Ag@MOF, PVA/0.5%Ag@MOF, and PVA/1.0%Ag@MOF show anti-microbial activity in ascending order. However, its use as an inner layer avoids direct contact with cells and prevents infection. The cell viability of all samples was above 90%, indicating that the bilayer hydrogel was non-toxic to A549 cells. The bilayer hydrogel scaffold combines the advantages of the inner and outer layers. In summary, this new bilayer composite is an ideal lung scaffold for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Despite the major medical advancements in recent decades, treating infected wounds successfully remains a challenge. In this research, a functional blend of Polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) and Chitosan (Cs) was developed for wound infection mitigation with tailored biological and physicochemical properties. Water insoluble kaempferol (KPF) was pre-formulated to water soluble KPF nanocrystals (KPF-NCs) with fine particle size of 145 ± 11 nm, and high colloidal stability (-31 ± 0.4 mV) to improve its drug transdermal delivery. PHB-Cs-KPF-NCs (1:2 ratio) film owned the best physical properties in terms of high breathability, thermal stability and mechanical strength (33 ± 1 MPa). Besides, XRD and FTIR findings indicated the interaction between Cs, PHB and KPF, reducing the film crystallinity. The scanning electron microscopy of the film displayed a highly interconnected porous morphology. KPF-NCs were integrated in PHB-Cs matrix with a marked encapsulation efficiency of 96.6%. The enhanced drug-loading film showed a sustain release pattern of KPF-NCs over 48 h. Interestingly, the developed blend possessed an impressive blood clotting capacity within 20 min. Furthermore, we presented a new naturally-sourced mixture of Cs+KPF-NCs with powerful antibacterial effects against MDRStaphylococcus aureusandAcentibacter baumanniiat very low concentrations. The membrane evidenced a remarkable antibacterial naturein vitrowith almost 100% cell viability reduction against the study strains after 48 h. By virtue of these advantages, this green blend is highly proposed for optimal wound care.

Abstract
Recently, many studies have focused on carrageenan-based hydrogels for biomedical applications thanks to their intrinsic properties, including biodegradability, biocompatibility, resembling native glycosaminoglycans, antioxidants, antitumor, immunomodulatory, and anticoagulant properties. They can easily change to three-dimensional hydrogels using a simple ionic crosslinking process. However, there are some limitations, including the uncontrollable exchange of ions and the formation of a brittle hydrogel, which can be overcome via simple chemical modifications of polymer networks to form chemically crosslinked hydrogels with significant mechanical properties and a controlled degradation rate. Additionally, the incorporation of various types of nanoparticles and polymer networks into carrageenan hydrogels has resulted in the formation of hybrid platforms with significant mechanical, chemical and biological properties, making them suitable biomaterials for drug delivery (DD), tissue engineering (TE), and wound healing applications. Herein, we aim to overview the recent advances in various chemical modification approaches and hybrid carrageenan-based platforms for tissue engineering and drug delivery applications.

Abstract
This work aimed to design montmorillonite-incorporated pH-responsive and magnetic κ-carrageenan/chitosan hydrogels via a completely green route for controlled release of sunitinib anticancer drug. This was accomplished by ionic cross-linking of two biopolymers, κ-carrageenan and chitosan, in the presence of magnetic montmorillonite (mMMt) nanoplatelets. Interestingly, it was observed that the amount of mMMt affected not only the microstructure of hydrogels, but also the drug loading efficiency of nanocomposite hydrogels was noticeably increased by introducing mMMt (from 69 to 96%). The in vitro sunitinib release experiments showed that a low content of loaded sunitinib was released from all hydrogels in the buffered solution with pH 7.4. In contrast, a relatively sustained release with a high content of drug release was observed in the acidic solution of pH 5.5. During 48 h, the hydrogels nanocomposite containing a high content of mMMt showed cumulative release of 64.0 and 8.6% at pH 5.5 and 7.4, respectively. During two days, while the cumulative release of sunitinib was obtained 84.3% for the magnetic-free hydrogel, the magnetic ones showed 74.4 and 64% with the low and high contents of magnetic MMt, respectively. The developed κ-carrageenan/chitosan hydrogels with a high capacity of drug loading and subsequent pH-sensitive drug release can be considered in prolonged cancer therapy with reduced side effects.

Abstract
Traditional wound dressings and formulations, such as cream, gauze, cotton wool and gel, are disadvantaged by short residence time, poor leakage and air permeability, poor patient compliance, and the minimal preservation in wet environment. This study is purposed to develop new biodegradable, antioxidant, and antimicrobial membranes based on two natural polysaccharides, Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) and chitosan (CS). The developed films were characterized by SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction to examine surface morphology and internal structure, while TG analysis was conducted to explore the thermal properties of the films. The physical properties of the films were also improved significantly after the introduction of BSP. The biological activity of developed films was assessed by means of antioxidant and antibacterial assay for the further research as a potential wound dressing. The CCK-8 assay revealed that the developed films showed a significant improvement of cell viability, biocompatibility and non-toxicity. These researches demonstrated that BSP/CS films can be applied as suitable materials for the development of biomaterial matrix in novel wound dressing.

Abstract
This literature review provides an overview of the fabrication and application of biopolymer hybrid particles in dentistry. A total of 95 articles have been included in this review. In the review paper, the common inorganic particles and biopolymers used in dentistry are discussed in general, and detailed examples of inorganic particles (i.e., hydroxyapatite, calcium phosphate, and bioactive glass) and biopolymers such as collagen, gelatin, and chitosan have been drawn from the scientific literature and practical work. Among the included studies, calcium phosphate including hydroxyapatite is the most widely applied for inorganic particles used in dentistry, but bioactive glass is more applicable and multifunctional than hydroxyapatite and is currently used in clinical practice. Today, biopolymer hybrid particles are receiving more attention as novel materials for several applications in dentistry, such as drug delivery systems, bone repair, and periodontal regeneration surgery. The literature published on the biopolymer gel-assisted synthesis of inorganic particles for dentistry is somewhat limited, and therefore, this article focuses on reviewing and discussing the biopolymer hybrid particles used in dentistry.

Abstract
In this paper, polyvinyl alcohol/starch composite films with p-coumaric acid modified chitosan (P-CS) and chitosan nanoparticles (P-CSNPs) at different concentrations were successfully prepared. The films were compared for their mechanical, thermal, physical, antioxidant, antibacterial, cytotoxicity and optical barrier properties. The results suggested that P-CS could significantly increase the tensile strength (TS) of the film from 15.67 MPa to a maximum of 24.32 MPa. The compact structure of P-CSNPs film prevented water diffusion, reducing the water amount within. Both films showed a reduction in water solubility, the extent of swelling, and water vapor transmittance. Specifically, P-CSNPs films showed better thermal stability while P-CS films revealed higher antioxidant activity. Besides, the P-CS films exhibited excellent transparency and good ultraviolet-barrier at 200-280 nm. P-CSNPs films demonstrated higher antibacterial activity on both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Additionally, P-CS films were less cytotoxic compared to P-CSNPs films.

Novel multifunctional adenine-modified chitosan dressings for promoting wound healing. Carbohydr Polym 2021; 260:117767. [PMID: 33712125 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2021.117767] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/10/2020] [Revised: 12/14/2020] [Accepted: 02/02/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Wound healing is a dynamic and intricate process, and newly dressings are urgently needed to promote wound healing over the multiple stages. Herein, two water-soluble adenine-modified chitosan (CS-A) derivatives were synthesized in aqueous solutions and freeze-dried to obtain porous sponge-like dressings. The novel derivatives displayed antibacterial activities against S. aureus and E. coli. Moreover, CS-A derivatives demonstrated excellent hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility, as well as promoted the proliferation of the wound cells by shortening the G1 phase and improving DNA duplication efficiency. The ability of CS-A sponges to promote wound healing was studied in a full-thickness skin defect model. The histological analysis and immunohistochemical staining showed that the wounds treated with CS-A sponges displayed fewer inflammatory cells, and faster regeneration of epithelial tissue, collagen deposition and neovascularization. Therefore, CS-A derivatives have potential application in wound dressings and provide new ideas for the design of multifunctional biomaterials.

Abstract
In this paper, Ag-Metal-organic framework loaded chitosan nanoparticles (0.1%Ag@MOF/1.5%CSNPs) and polyvinyl alcohol/sodium alginate/chitosan (PACS) were used as the upper and lower layers to successfully prepare a bilayer composite dressing for wound healing. The performance of bilayer dressing was evaluated. The lower layer (PACS) had uniform pore size distribution, good water retention, swelling, water vapor permeability, and biocompatibility while PACS had almost no antibacterial activity. The upper layer (Ag@MOF/CSNPs) possessed excellent antibacterial activity and poor biocompatibility. As the upper layer, it can avoid direct contact with the skin and inhibit microbial invasion. In addition, the bilayer can adhere to a large number of red blood cells and platelets, promoting blood coagulation and cell proliferation. Ag@MOF, CSNPs, Ag@MOF/CSNPs and bilayer showed antibacterial activity in ascending order, due to the synergistic antibacterial action of the upper and lower layer. In vivo evaluation showed that both bilayer and PACS could significantly accelerate the wound healing, and the bilayer dressing showed more complete re-epithelialization with less inflammatory cells. In summary, this new bilayer composite is an ideal dressing for accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
In the current study, hemostatic compositions including a combination of chitosan and kaolin have been developed. Chitosan is a marine polysaccharide derived from chitins, a structural component in the shells of crustaceans. Both chitosan and kaolin have the ability to mediate a quick and efficient hemostatic effect following immediate application to injury sites, and thus they have been widely exploited in manufacturing of hemostatic composites. By combining more than one hemostatic agent (i.e., chitosan and kaolin) that act via more than one mechanism, and by utilizing different nanotechnology-based approaches to enhance the surface areas, the capability of the dressing to control bleeding was improved, in terms of amount of blood loss and time to hemostasis. The nanotechnology-based approaches utilized to enhance the effective surface area of the hemostatic agents included the use of Pluronic nanoparticles, and deposition of chitosan micro- and nano-fibers onto the carrier. The developed composites effectively controlled bleeding and significantly improved hemostasis and survival rates in two animal models, rats and rabbits, compared to conventional dressings and QuikClot® Combat Gauze. The composites were well-tolerated as demonstrated by their in vivo biocompatibility and absence of clinical and biochemical changes in the laboratory animals after application of the dressings.

Abstract
Hydrogel can provide a favorable moisture environment for skin wound healing. In this study, a novel in-situ crosslinked injectable hydrogel was prepared using the water-soluble amidated pectin (AP) and oxidized chitosan (OC) through Schiff-base reaction without any chemical crosslinker. The influence of AP content on the properties of the hydrogel was systemically investigated. It showed that gelation time, pore structure, swelling capability and degradability of the hydrogel can be tuned by varying the content of amine and aldehyde groups from AP and OC. All the porous hydrogels with various AP contents (65%, 70%, and 80%) presented desirable gelation time, swelling property, high hemocompatibility and biocompatibility. Particularly, AP-OC-65 hydrogel presented superior swelling capability and better hemo- and bio-compatibility, owing to more residual amine sites in the hydrogel. Therefore, the injectable AP-OC-65 hydrogel has a greater potential for application to wound dressing or skin substitute.
