We report an elastase-responsive, H2S-releasing hydrogel prepared by covalently crosslinking a mixture of carboxymethylcellulose and poly(ethylene glycol) with an elastase-degradable peptide functionalized with an H2S-releasing S-aroylthiooxime (SATO) unit. Addition of elastase triggered a gel-to-sol transition, which exposed SATOs, leading to more and longer H2S release compared to untriggered gels.
我们报告了一种弹性蛋白酶响应的 H2S 释放水凝胶,该水凝胶通过将羧甲基纤维素和聚乙二醇的混合物与弹性蛋白酶可降解的肽进行共价交联制备,该肽用 H2S 释放 S-芳酰硫肟(SATO)单元进行功能化。加入弹性蛋白酶会引发凝胶到溶胶的转变,从而暴露 SATOs,与未触发的凝胶相比,导致更多和更长时间的 H2S 释放。
