Carboxymethyl chitosan-grafted polyvinylpyrrolidone-iodine microspheres for promoting the healing of chronic wounds.

ABSTRACT: Chronic wounds that fail to heal are the most common complications experienced by diabetic patients, and current treatment remains unsatisfactory, mainly due to the vulnerability of diabetic wounds to bacterial infections. Chitosan derivatives are widely used to treat chronic wounds due to their excellent hydrophilicity, biodegradability, and antimicrobial activity and substantial contribution to tissue regeneration. However, the antimicrobial effect of chitosan is not sufficient due to the complicated pathological mechanism of diabetes mellitus. Here, we prepared carboxymethyl chitosan-grafted polyvinylpyrrolidone-iodine (CMC-g-PVPI) microspheres and used them to treat chronic wounds. Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) was used as the skeleton and was grafted with polyvinylpyrrolidone-iodine (PVPI) to form a CMC-g-PVPI complex hydrogel and CMC-g-PVPI microspheres, which formed as a result of the high shearing dispersion of the complex hydrogel. In vivo experiments on diabetic wounds revealed significantly accelerated wound closure in the presence of the microspheres, demonstrating the excellent potential of CMC-g-PVPI to promote skin wound regeneration under diabetic conditions.

Project description:Background: The repair of wounds usually caused by trauma or other chronic diseases remained challenging in clinics due to the potential risk of inflammation and inadequate tissue regenerative properties. Among them, the behaviour of immune cells, such as macrophages, is critical in tissue repair. Materials and methods: In this study, a water-soluble phosphocreatine-grafted methacryloyl chitosan (CSMP) was synthesized with a one-step lyophilization method, followed by the fabrication of CSMP hydrogel with a photocrosslinked method. The microstructure, water absorption and mechanical properties for the hydrogels were investigated. Then, the macrophages were co-cultured with hydrogels and the pro-inflammatory factors and polarization markers for these macrophages were detected through real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), Western blot (WB), and flow cytometry methods. Finally, the CSMP hydrogel was implanted in a wound defect area in mice to test its ability to promote wound healing. Results: The lyophilized CSMP hydrogel had a porous structure with pores ranging in size from 200 to 400 μm, which was larger than the CSM hydrogel’s. The lyophilized CSMP hydrogel possessed a higher water absorption rate compared with the CSM hydrogel. The compressive stress and modulus of these hydrogels were increased in the initial 7 days immersion and then gradually decreased during the in vitro immersion in PBS solution up to 21 days; the CSMP hydrogel showed a higher value in these parameters versus the CSM hydrogel. The CSMP hydrogel inhibited the expression of inflammatory factors such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-12, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in an in vitro study cocultured with pro-inflammatory factors in pre-treated bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM). The mRNA sequencing results showed that the CSMP hydrogel might inhibit the macrophages’ M1 type polarization through the NF-κB signaling pathway. Furthermore, when compared to the control group, the CSMP hydrogel promoted more skin area repair in the mouse wound defect area, and inflammatory factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were lower in the repaired tissue for the CSMP group. Conclusion: This phosphate-grafted chitosan hydrogel showed great promise for wound healing through regulating the macrophage’s phenotype via the NF-κB signaling pathway.
