摘要
In this study, a biocellulose (BC) sheet containing gel extract (AE) was developed for application in healing chronic wounds, such as diabetic wounds. The BC sheet was produced by and then lyophilized to obtain dried sheets. gel was extracted by precipitation in 35% ammonium sulfate, lyophilized, dried, and incorporated into the BC sheet. The protein content of the AE was 12.32 ± 3.4% w/w, with a molecular weight of ∼20 kDa. The release of TNF-α from lipopolysaccharide-induced RAW264.7 cells was reduced by treatment with AE in a dose-dependent manner. The physicochemical and biological properties of the developed sheet were investigated. Morphological examination of the BC/AE sheet using scanning electron microscopy revealed the 3D construction of nanofibrils, which showed high porosity. The BC/AE sheet exhibited water absorption at 74%, and the release of proteins in the AE reached 97.23% at 4 h. The BC sheet incorporated with proteins in the AE at 283.78 ± 7.7 μg/cm can promote the wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. The recovering skin in diabetic wounds treated with the BC/AE sheet exhibited a normal cell arrangement without fibrosis, as revealed by histological staining. The research findings indicate that the BC/AE sheet has potential for applications in wound dressings.
