Abstract
It is highly desirable to develop novel multifunctional wound dressing materials capable of delivering active molecules capable of resolving bacterial infections and replenishment of appropriate growth factors for bacteria-infected wound healing. Polysaccharides have numerous biomedical benefits and have been widely used to construct biomaterial scaffolds. Herein, multifunctional chitosan/alginate hydrogel decorated with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) modified polydopamine (PDA)-bioactive glass (BG) nanoparticles (NPs) integrating photothermal performance and nitric-oxide release activities for the treatment of bacterially infected wounds is presented. As the NO precursor N,N'-di-sec-butyl-N,N'-dinitroso-1,4-phenylenediamine (BNN6) encapsulated into the hydrophobic cavity of β-CD on the PDA-coated BG NPs, the resultant NO@CD-PDA/BG NPs, are imparted with the feature of NIR triggered NO release and desired PTT/NO synergetic antibacterial effects. Furthermore, the release of NO, Ca, and Si ions from the NO@CD-PDA/BG NPs, has the benefit of regulating inflammation, promoting fibroblast proliferation, and stimulating angiogenesis. Besides, the chitosan/alginate hydrogel scaffolds provided a suitable microenvironment to accelerate wound healing. By applying the multifunctional chitosan/alginate nanocomposite hydrogel to S. aureus-infected full-thickness skin defect mouse model, the authors demonstrated that chitosan/alginate nanocomposite hydrogel has multiple functions in preventing bacterial infections, accelerating angiogenesis and wound regeneration, indicating promising application in wound healing.
