Biopolymer-based composite hydrogels have attracted tremendous attention for tissue regeneration and antitumor applications. Since sodium alginate is a biopolymer, they offer excellent therapeutic options with long-term drug release and low side effects. To prepare multifunctional composite hydrogels with anticancer and tissue regeneration capabilities, sodium alginate (SA) and graphene oxide (GO) were covalently linked and crosslinked with tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) by the solvothermal method. The structural and morphological results show that the hydrogels exhibit the desired functionality and porosity. The swelling of hydrogels in an aqueous and PBS medium was investigated. SGT-4 had the highest swelling in both aqueous and PBS media. Swelling and biodegradation of the hydrogel were inversely related. The drug release of SGT-4 was determined in different pH media (pH 6.4, 7.4, and 8.4) and the kinetics of drug release was determined according to the Higuchi model (R2 = 0.93587). Antibacterial activities were evaluated against severe infectious agents. Uppsala (U87) and osteoblast (MC3T3-E1) cell lines were used to determine the anticancer and biocompatibility of the composite hydrogels, respectively. These results suggest that the composite hydrogels could be used as potential biomaterials for tissue regeneration and antitumor applications.
基于生物聚合物的复合水凝胶因其在组织再生和抗肿瘤应用方面的巨大潜力而备受关注。由于海藻酸钠是一种生物聚合物,因此它们提供了具有长期药物释放和低副作用的极佳治疗选择。为了制备具有抗癌和组织再生功能的多功能复合水凝胶,通过溶剂热法将海藻酸钠(SA)和氧化石墨烯(GO)共价连接,并与正硅酸乙酯(TEOS)交联。结构和形态学结果表明,水凝胶具有所需的功能和多孔性。研究了水凝胶在水和 PBS 介质中的溶胀情况。SGT-4 在水和 PBS 介质中的溶胀率均最高。水凝胶的溶胀和生物降解呈反比关系。在不同 pH 值介质(pH 6.4、7.4 和 8.4)中测定了 SGT-4 的药物释放情况,并根据 Higuchi 模型(R2=0.93587)确定了药物释放动力学。评估了针对严重感染剂的抗菌活性。分别使用乌普萨拉(U87)和成骨细胞(MC3T3-E1)细胞系来确定复合水凝胶的抗癌和生物相容性。这些结果表明,复合水凝胶可用作组织再生和抗肿瘤应用的潜在生物材料。
