A novel antioxidant hydrogel, 2,3-HCat-CS/STPP, enhances diabetic wound healing by reducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammation. This promotes granulation tissue regeneration and offers a promising therapy for chronic wounds.

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Regenerative Medicine
  • Wound Healing Research

Background:

  • Diabetic wound healing is hindered by excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and chronic inflammation, impairing granulation tissue regeneration.
  • Existing catechol antioxidants lack stability under physiological conditions, limiting their therapeutic use in biomaterials.
  • Developing stable, effective antioxidants is crucial for managing challenging chronic wounds.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a stable antioxidant hydrogel, 2,3-HCat-CS/STPP, for promoting diabetic wound healing.
  • To investigate the antioxidant stability and ROS-scavenging capabilities of the modified chitosan (2,3-HCat-CS).
  • To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of the hydrogel in a diabetic wound model.

  • Fabrication of 2,3-HCat-CS/STPP hydrogel using a freeze-thaw method with modified chitosan and sodium tripolyphosphate.
  • Assessment of antioxidant properties, oxidative stability, and ROS-scavenging activity in vitro.
  • Evaluation of hydrogel biocompatibility and therapeutic effects in a full-thickness diabetic wound model in db/db mice.
  • Main Results:

    • The 2,3-HCat-CS demonstrated superior oxidative stability and ROS-scavenging compared to the 3,4-isomer.
    • The 2,3-HCat-CS/STPP hydrogel showed excellent antioxidant properties and biocompatibility in vitro.
    • In vivo, the hydrogel significantly reduced ROS levels, mitigated inflammation, and promoted angiogenesis and granulation tissue regeneration in diabetic wounds.

    Conclusions:

    • The 2,3-HCat-CS/STPP hydrogel effectively addresses the challenges of diabetic wound healing by stabilizing catechol and scavenging ROS.
    • The hydrogel promotes a pro-regenerative microenvironment by reducing inflammation and enhancing tissue repair mechanisms.
    • This antioxidant hydrogel represents a promising therapeutic strategy for managing chronic wounds and improving patient outcomes.
