An antibacterial and healing-promoting collagen fibril constructed by the simultaneous strategy of fibril reconstitution and ε-polylysine anchoring for infected wound repair
Literature Information
The development of antibacterial dressings has attracted much attention to address the disordered wound healing caused by bacterial infection. Constructing dressings that have desirable antibacterial activity and could promote wound healing is important for infected wound repair. Inspired by the role of the key regulator collagen fibrils with D-periodic functional domains in the physiological wound healing process, we developed an antibacterial and wound healing-promoting collagen fibril with a structure highly similar to natural collagen in ECM and inherent antibacterial activity by the simultaneous strategy of fibril reconstitution and the antibacterial agent ε-polylysine (ε-PL) anchoring. Accompanied by the fibrillogenesis of collagen molecules, the anchorage of ε-PL into collagen fibrils was actualized through the formation of the covalent bond catalyzed by transglutaminase (TGase) between ε-PL and collagen. The collagen fibril possessed natural D-periodicity and achieved 20% ε-PL graft yield by co-assembling collagen/ε-PL mediated by 25 U g−1 TGase, which showed a satisfactory proliferation of L929 fibroblasts and sustained inhibition rates above 90% against E. coli and S. aureus. The rat S. aureus-infected dermal wound model further demonstrated that the reconstituted antibacterial collagen fibril visibly promoted re-epithelialization, new collagen deposition, and angiogenesis by down-regulating the inflammatory-relative gene IL-6 and up-regulating the relative activity factor expression of CD31, achieving accelerated infected wound healing with 61.89% ± 3.96% wound closure on postoperative day 7 and full closure on day 14.

Biomaterials Science

Biomaterials Science is an international high impact journal exploring the science of biomaterials and their translation towards clinical use. Its scope encompasses new concepts in biomaterials design, studies into the interaction of biomaterials with the body, and the use of materials to answer fundamental biological questions. Papers do not necessarily need to report a new biomaterial but should provide novel insight into the biological applications of the biomaterial. Articles that primarily focus on demonstrating novel materials chemistry and bring a molecular picture to bear on a given material’s suitability as a biomaterial are more suited to our companion journal, Journal of Materials Chemistry B. Biomaterials Science publishes primary research and review-type articles in the following areas: molecular design of biomaterials, including translation of emerging chemistries to biomaterials science of cells and materials at the nanoscale and microscale materials as model systems for stem cell and human biology materials for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (Nano)materials and (nano)systems for therapeutic delivery interactions at the biointerface biologically inspired and biomimetic materials, including bio-inspired self-assembly systems and cell-inspired synthetic tools next-generation biomaterials tools and methods
