Chronic nonhealing diabetic wound therapy and complete skin regeneration remains a critical clinical challenge. The controlled release of bioactive factors from a multifunctional hydrogel was a promising strategy to repair chronic wounds. Herein, for the first time, we developed an injectable, self-healing and antibacterial polypeptide-based FHE hydrogel (F127/OHA-EPL) with stimuli-responsive adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells exosomes (AMSCs-exo) release for synergistically enhancing chronic wound healing and complete skin regeneration. The materials characterization, antibacterial activity, stimulated cellular behavior and full-thickness diabetic wound healing ability of the hydrogels were performed and analyzed. The FHE hydrogel possessed multifunctional properties including fast self-healing process, shear-thinning injectable ability, efficient antibacterial activity, and long term pH-responsive bioactive exosomes release behavior. , the FHE@exosomes (FHE@exo) hydrogel significantly promoted the proliferation, migration and tube formation ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). , the FHE@exo hydrogel significantly enhanced the healing efficiency of diabetic full-thickness cutaneous wounds, characterized with enhanced wound closure rates, fast angiogenesis, re-epithelization and collagen deposition within the wound site. Moreover, the FHE@exo hydrogel displayed better healing outcomes than those of exosomes or FHE hydrogel alone, suggesting that the sustained release of exosomes and FHE hydrogel can synergistically facilitate diabetic wound healing. Skin appendages and less scar tissue also appeared in FHE@exo hydrogel treated wounds, indicating its potent ability to achieve complete skin regeneration. This work offers a new approach for repairing chronic wounds completely through a multifunctional hydrogel with controlled exosomes release.
慢性难愈性糖尿病创面治疗和完全皮肤再生仍然是一个临床重大挑战。生物活性因子从多功能水凝胶中的控制释放是修复慢性创面的一种有前途的策略。在此,我们首次开发了一种可注射的、自修复的和抗菌的多肽 FHE 水凝胶(F127/OHA-EPL),其具有响应性脂肪间充质干细胞外泌体(AMSCs-exo)释放的刺激,以协同增强慢性伤口愈合和完全皮肤再生。对水凝胶的材料特性、抗菌活性、刺激细胞行为和全厚度糖尿病创面愈合能力进行了分析和研究。FHE 水凝胶具有多种功能,包括快速自修复过程、剪切稀化可注射能力、高效抗菌活性和长期 pH 响应的生物活性外泌体释放行为。体外研究表明,FHE@exosomes(FHE@exo)水凝胶显著促进了人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVECs)的增殖、迁移和管状形成能力。体内研究表明,FHE@exo 水凝胶显著提高了糖尿病全厚度皮肤创面的愈合效率,表现为提高创面闭合率、快速血管生成、再上皮化和胶原沉积。此外,FHE@exo 水凝胶的愈合效果优于单独使用外泌体或 FHE 水凝胶,表明外泌体和 FHE 水凝胶的持续释放可以协同促进糖尿病创面愈合。FHE@exo 水凝胶处理的创面还出现了皮肤附属物和更少的疤痕组织,表明其具有实现完全皮肤再生的强大能力。这项工作提供了一种通过具有控制外泌体释放的多功能水凝胶来完全修复慢性创面的新方法。
