Fabrication of wound dressings: Herbal extract‐loaded nanoliposomes embedded in fungal chitosan/ polycaprolactone electrospun nanofibers for tissue regeneration

Le résumé fourni par la source

Wound healing is a complex process and one of the major therapeutic and economic subjects in the pharmaceutical area. In recent years, the fabrication of nano-sized wound dressing models has attracted great attention for tissue regeneration. Plant extracts loaded nanoparticles are environmentally friendly and non-toxic and the release of the bioactive substance will be controlled to the wound area. This study aims to fabricate wound dressing models that contain bioactive components for tissue regeneration. Fungal chitosan/polycaprolactone nanofiber was fabricated by electrospinning and it has been characterized. Plant extracts loaded nanoliposomes were prepared, characterized, and embedded in nanofiber structures. The effectiveness of wound dressing models for tissue regeneration was evaluated by in vitro and in vivo studies. It was observed that all wound dressing models positively affect the cell viability of human dermal fibroblast cells. It was determined that plant extracts loaded nanoparticles embedded in nanofibers increased in cell viability than nanoparticles that were non-embedded in nanofiber structures. Histological analysis showed that plant extract-loaded nanoliposomes embedded in chitosan/PCL nanofibers were used for tissue regeneration. The most effective nanofibers were determined as Wd-ClNL nanofibers. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: Hypericum perforatum L. and Cistus laurifolius L. were prepared by modified ultrasonic extraction method. Fungal chitosan/polycaprolactone nanofiber was fabricated by electrospinning and it has been characterized. Plant extract-loaded nanoliposomes were prepared, and characterized. They were embedded in chitosan/polycaprolactone nanofiber. Effects of the wound dressing model were analyzed by in vitro and in vivo assays for tissue regeneration.
