Natural polymers have been used in the biomedical fields for decades, mainly derived from animals and plants with high similarities with biomacromolecules in the human body. As an alkaline polysaccharide, chitosan (CS) attracts much attention in tissue regeneration and drug delivery with favorable biocompatibility, biodegradation, and antibacterial activity. However, to overcome its mechanical properties and degradation behavior drawbacks, a robust fibrous protein-silk fibroin (SF) was introduced to prepare the CS/SF composites. Not only can CS be combined with SF via the amide and hydrogen bond formation, but also their functions are complementary and tunable with the blending ratio. To further improve the performances of CS/SF composites, natural (e.g., hyaluronic acid and collagen) and synthetic biopolymers (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol and hexanone) were incorporated. Also, the CS/SF composites acted as slow-release carriers for inorganic non-metals (e.g., hydroxyapatite and graphene) and metal particles (e.g., silver and magnesium), which could enhance cell functions, facilitate tissue healing, and inhibit bacterial growth. This review presents the state-of-the-art and future perspectives of different biomaterials combined with CS/SF composites as sponges, hydrogels, membranes, particles, and coatings. Emphasis is devoted to the biological potentialities of these hybrid systems, which look rather promising toward a multitude of applications.
天然聚合物在生物医学领域已经使用了几十年,主要来源于动物和植物,与人体中的生物大分子具有高度相似性。壳聚糖(CS)作为一种碱性多糖,由于其良好的生物相容性、可生物降解性和抗菌活性,在组织再生和药物输送方面受到了广泛关注。然而,为了克服其力学性能和降解行为的缺陷,引入了一种坚固的纤维状蛋白质-丝素蛋白(SF)来制备 CS/SF 复合材料。CS 不仅可以通过酰胺和氢键与 SF 结合,而且它们的功能可以通过混合比进行互补和调节。为了进一步提高 CS/SF 复合材料的性能,将天然(如透明质酸和胶原蛋白)和合成生物聚合物(如聚乙烯醇和己酮)掺入其中。此外,CS/SF 复合材料还可以作为无机非金属(如羟基磷灰石和石墨烯)和金属颗粒(如银和镁)的缓释载体,这些载体可以增强细胞功能,促进组织愈合,并抑制细菌生长。本文综述了不同生物材料与 CS/SF 复合材料结合作为海绵、水凝胶、膜、颗粒和涂层的最新进展和未来展望。重点介绍了这些混合系统的生物学潜力,这些系统在多种应用中具有广阔的应用前景。
