Abstract
Infection is a crucial and generally unsolved issue in tissue engineering applications such as in wound healing and bone regeneration. In this study, we have prepared different antibacterial platforms containing hyaluronic acid and silver nanoparticles. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were biosynthesized by a microwave-assisted green technique using corn silk extract in an organic solvent-free medium. The thermosensitive and injectable hydrogels were prepared and their potential use as wound care materials and bone regeneration were investigated. Rheological analysis demonstrated that the nanocomposites have good mechanical properties with gelation temperature close to the body temperature; hence, they can be easily administrated locally on wounded skins and bone defect. The samples exhibited antibacterial activity toward gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Cytotoxicity assay showed that the hydrogels have good biocompatibility. Interestingly, an in-vitro model of wound healing revealed that the nanocomposites allow faster wound closure and repair, compared to the control. Regarding the bone tissue engineering applications, mesenchymal stem cells seeded in the nanocomposite exhibited high bone differentiation which indicate that they could be a good candidate as a potential scaffold for bone tissue regeneration. In another study, we exploited the advantages of local drug delivery by developing a platform with improved efficacy. Having this in mind, we prepared hyaluronic acid-based device containing diclofenac sodium-encapsulated (2-Hydroxypropyl)-β-cyclodextrin (CD) that possess high drug loading along with prolonged release. The platform showed high mechanical properties along with low friction indications high lubricity of the platform. L929 cell morphology and viability assay showed a over the 100 % (approximately 110%) for the injectable device.
