Soft tissue sealants generally sacrifice adhesive strength for biocompatibility, motivating the development of materials which interact with tissue to a predictable and controllable extent. Crosslinked hydrogels comprising aminated star polyethylene glycol and high molecular weight dextran aldehyde polymers (PEG:dextran) display aldehyde-mediated adhesion and readily tunable reactivity with soft tissue ex-vivo. Evaluation of PEG:dextran compositional variants revealed that the burst pressure of repaired intestinal wounds and the extent of material-induced tissue deformation both increase nonlinearly with formulation aldehyde content and are consistently within the desired range established by traditional sealants. Adhesive test elements featuring PEG:dextran and intestinal tissue exhibited considerable viscoelasticity, prompting use of a standard linear solid (SLS) model to describe adhesive mechanics. Model elements were accurately represented as continuous functions of PEG:dextran chemistry, facilitating prediction of adhesive mechanics across the examined range of compositional formulations. SLS models of traditional sealants were also constructed to allow general correlative analyses between viscoelastic adhesive mechanics and metrics of sealant performance. Linear correlation of equilibrium SLS stiffness to sealant-induced tissue deformation indicates that dense adhesive crosslinking restricts tissue expansion, while correlation of instantaneous SLS stiffness to burst pressure suggests that the adhesive stress relaxation capacity of PEG:dextran enhances their overall performance relative to traditional sealants. 相似文献

Graft co-polymer networks have shown promise as devices for oral delivery of proteins. By increasing adhesion of these networks at the delivery site of the upper small intestine by utilizing small covalent chemical linkages caused by the addition of an aldehyde functional group we can make them more viable. These aldehydes bind covalently by way of a condensation reaction with the amines of the amino acids found in the glycoprotein network of the mucus layer of the small intestine to form imines. To investigate the effectiveness of this linkage the co-polymers are prepared in three different percentages of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and aldehyde-modified PEG, and characterized through swelling, release and adhesion testing. The percentages of aldehyde-modified PEG used are 0.06, 0.6 and 3.3%. The swelling results indicate that the formulations with the aldehyde-modified PEG maintained the same pH sensitivity and transition around a pH of 5.8 as those formulations without the aldehyde moiety. Release results indicate that the release of insulin of the most promising 3.3% aldehyde formulation was successful with a release of about 80% after 3 h, which compares favorably with the similar release of the controls done in previous work. Adhesion testing was carried out through the use of a mechanical testing apparatus. Data have been gathered and plotted to give a detachment force (N) versus displacement (m) curve, of which the work of adhesion (μJ) was found by taking the area underneath the curve. Adhesion results indicate an increase to the already present adhesion of the co-polymers due to increased percentages of the aldehyde-modified PEG tethers where the 3.3% formulation showed an increase of 10-30 μJ over both control formulations. 相似文献

Surface-immobilized dextran limits cell adhesion and spreading 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Dextran has recently been investigated as an alternative to polyethylene glycol (PEG) for low protein-binding, cell-resistant coatings on biomaterial surfaces. Although anti-fouling properties of surface-grafted dextran and PEG are quite similar, the multivalent properties of dextran are advantageous when high-density surface immobilization of biologically active molecules to low protein-binding surface coatings is desired. The preferred methods of dextran immobilization for biomaterial applications should be simple with minimal toxicity. In this report, a method is described for covalent immobilization of dextran to material surfaces which involves low residual toxicity reagents in mild aqueous reaction conditions. 70 kDa MW dextran was immobilized on glass and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surfaces. 3T3 fibroblast cell adhesion was compared on untreated, aminated, and dextran-coated materials. Dextran coatings effectively limited cell adhesion and spreading on glass and PET surfaces in the presence of serum-borne cell adhesion proteins. With dextran-based surface coatings, it will be possible to develop well-defined surface modifications that promote specific cell interactions and perhaps better performance in long-term biomaterial implants. 相似文献

In situ cross linkable polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based polymers play an increasing role in surgical practice as sealants that provide a barrier to fluid/gas leakage and adhesion formation. This study investigated the gelation behavior and physical properties of hydrogels formed from homogeneous and blended solutions of two acrylated poloxamines (Tetronics® T1107 and T904) of various molecular weights and hydrophilic/lipophilic balances relative to a PEG control. Hydrogels were formed by reverse thermal gelation at physiological temperature (T1107-containing formulations) and covalent crosslinking by Michael-type addition with dithiothreitol. All poloxamine-based hydrogels exhibited thermosensitive behavior and achieved significantly reduced swelling, increased tensile properties and increased tissue bond strength relative to the PEG hydrogel at physiological temperature. Swelling and tensile properties of all poloxamine-based hydrogels were significantly greater at 37 °C relative to 4 °C, suggesting that their improved physical properties derive from cooperative crosslinking by both noncovalent and covalent mechanisms. Poloxamine-based hydrogels were cytocompatible and underwent hydrolytic degradation over 2–5 weeks, depending on their T1107/T904 composition. In conclusion, select poloxamine-based hydrogels possess a number of properties potentially beneficial to tissue sealant applications, including a substantial increase in viscosity between room/physiological temperatures, resistance to cell adhesion and maintenance of a stable volume during equilibration. 相似文献

Immobilized RGD peptides on surface-grafted dextran promote biospecific cell attachment 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Dextran has recently been investigated as an alternative to poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) for low protein-binding, cell-resistant coatings on biomaterial surfaces. Although antifouling properties of surface-grafted dextran and PEG are quite similar, surface-bound dextran has multiple reactive sites for high-density surface immobilization of biologically active molecules. We recently reported nontoxic aqueous methods to covalently immobilize dextran on material surfaces. These dextran coatings effectively limited cell adhesion and spreading in the presence of serum-borne cell adhesion proteins. In this study we utilized the same nontoxic aqueous methods to graft cell adhesion peptides on low protein-binding dextran monolayer surfaces. Chemical composition of all modified surfaces was verified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Surface-grafted cell adhesion peptides stimulated endothelial cell, fibroblast, and smooth muscle cell attachment and spreading in vitro. In contrast, surface-grafted inactive peptide sequences did not promote high levels of cell interaction. Surface-grafted high affinity cyclic RGD peptides promoted cell type-dependent interactions. With dextran-based surface coatings, it will be possible to develop well-defined surface modifications that promote specific cell interactions and perhaps better performance in long-term biomaterial implants. 相似文献

This study was designed to determine the effect of changes in poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) molecular weight on swelling and mechanical properties of hydrogels made from a novel polymer, oligo(poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate) (OPF), recently developed in our laboratory. Properties of hydrogels made from OPF with initial PEG molecular weights of 860, 3900, and 9300 were examined. The PEG 3900 formulation had a tensile modulus of 23.1 +/- 12.4 kPa and percent elongation at fracture of 53.2 +/- 13.7%; the PEG 9300 formulation had similar tensile properties (modulus: 16.5 +/- 4.6 kPa, elongation: 76.0 +/- 26.4%). However, the PEG 860 gels had a significantly higher modulus (89.5 +/- 50.7 kPa) and a significantly smaller percent elongation at fracture (30.1 +/- 6.4%), when compared with other formulations. Additionally, there were significant differences in percent swelling between each of the formulations. Molecular weight between crosslinks (M(c)) and mesh size were calculated for each OPF formulation. M(c) increased from 2010 +/- 116 g/mol with PEG 860 to 6250 +/- 280 g/mol with PEG 9300. Mesh size calculations showed a similar trend (76 +/- 2 A for PEG 860 to 160 +/- 6 A for PEG 9300). It was also found that these hydrogels could be laminated if a second layer was added before the first had completely crosslinked. Mechanical testing of these laminated gels revealed that the presence of an interfacial area did not significantly alter their tensile properties. These results suggest that the material properties of OPF-based hydrogels can be altered by changing the molecular weight of PEG used in synthesis and that multilayered OPF hydrogel constructs can be produced, with each layer having distinct mechanical properties. 相似文献

In these experiments, the effects of the drying history of hydrogels made from a novel polymer, oligo(poly(ethylene glycol) fumarate) (OPF) with two different poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) molecular weights (approximately 920 (1K) and 9110 (10K) g/mol), were investigated. The hydrogels were either formed, dried and then swelled, representing what may occur in the case of a pre-formed membrane for guided tissue regeneration, or were formed and swelled immediately, as may occur with an injectable material for such applications. Subsequently, swelling properties, sol fraction and polymer network structure (as indicated by differential scanning calorimetry), as well as attachment of human dermal fibroblasts to these hydrogels at 4 and 24 h was examined. It was found that drying before swelling caused a significant reduction in final fold swelling of OPF hydrogels, regardless of OPF formulation or method of drying (air-dried or vacuum-dried) (e.g. PEG 10K swollen first: 13.94 +/- 0.35 vs. vacuum first: 6.53 +/- 0.12; PEG 1K swollen first: 8.99 +/- 0.47 vs. vacuum first: 2.26 +/- 0.08). This decreased swelling correlated to significantly higher cell attachment (% seeded) to these hydrogels at 24 h (PEG 10K vacuum first: 21.1 +/- 4.7% vs. swollen first: 7.1 +/- 5.5%; PEG 1K vacuum first: 58.2 +/- 2% vs. swollen first: 7.4 +/- 2.2%). LIVE/DEAD staining followed by microscopic analysis revealed attached cells were viable, yet rounded, and that, in the case of the PEG 1K dried-first samples, undulations in the surface visible in the hydrated state may have affected cell adhesion. Regardless of treatment, all hydrogels showed significantly less cell attachment than the tissue culture polystyrene control after 24 h (104.9 +/- 4.4%). These results suggest that, by altering the PEG molecular weight used in synthesis, OPF hydrogels may be tailored to produce desired swelling properties and reduce non-specific cell adhesion for either injectable or pre-formed applications, thus providing a potential alternative material for use in guided tissue regeneration procedures. 相似文献

A degradable, cytocompatible bioadhesive can facilitate surgical procedures and minimize patient pain and post-surgical complications. In this study a bioadhesive hydrogel system based on oxidized methacrylated alginate/8-arm poly(ethylene glycol) amine (OMA/PEG) has been developed, and the bioadhesive characteristics of the crosslinked OMA/PEG hydrogels evaluated. Here we demonstrate that the swelling behavior, degradation profiles, and storage moduli of crosslinked OMA/PEG hydrogels are tunable by varying the degree of alginate oxidation. The crosslinked OMA/PEG hydrogels exhibit cytocompatibility when cultured with human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, the adhesion strength of these hydrogels, controllable by varying the alginate oxidation level and measured using a porcine skin model, is superior to commercially available fibrin glue. This OMA/PEG hydrogel system with controllable biodegradation and mechanical properties and adhesion strength may be a promising bioadhesive for clinical use in biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, wound closure and healing, biomedical device implantation, and tissue engineering. 相似文献

Fibrin-based sealants are commonly employed to arrest bleeding after surgery. Usually, fibrinogen obtained from pooled human plasma is used to prepare sealants, with attendant risk of blood-borne infections. Availability of autologous fibrinogen would eliminate this risk. To prepare autologous fibrin sealant, fibrinogen was precipitated from human plasma using protamine. Under optimal conditions (10-mg/mL protamine and 22 degrees C), 96 +/- 4% of clottable fibrinogen was recovered by a simple and inexpensive technique. Nearly 50% of the plasma factor XIII was also recovered with the fibrinogen. Using bovine thrombin, the fibrinogen was clotted (1) in a specially designed mold to measure tensile strength and (2) in a lap joint between 2 aortic vessel strips to measure adhesion strength. Tensile and adhesion strengths increased with increasing fibrinogen concentration, and they were increased by the addition of calcium chloride. The addition of aprotinin and -aminocaproic acid to the fibrinogen concentrate before clotting had no effect on the mechanical properties of the clots. After adding thrombin to sealant containing 15-mg/mL fibrinogen, maximum tensile strength was achieved in 1-5 min, and maximum adhesion strength was reached in 5-15 min. For the sealant with 30-60-mg/mL fibrinogen and added calcium, the tensile strength was equivalent to that of the commercial fibrin sealant Tisseel. The adhesion strength of sealant with 30-60-mg/mL fibrinogen exceeded the adhesive strength of Tisseel under identical conditions. Autologous fibrin sealant is an attractive alternative to commercial sealants. It can be readily prepared from 5-mL plasma or more and exhibits mechanical properties equivalent to those of the leading commercial sealant. 相似文献

Sensitization of smooth Salmonella typhimurium 395 MS bacteria with hyper-immune anti-MS immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies increased the liability to hydrophobic interaction as assessed by the affinity for a column of Octyl-Sepharose. After sensitization, the material originally eluted with 1 M (NH4)SO4 in a 0.01 M phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) was not desorbed until the ionic strength was reduced to nil, and 0.1% (vol/vol) Triton X-100 in the 0.01 M phosphate buffer was used as eluant. Furthermore, by including positively charged bis-trimethylamino-polyethylene glycol (PEG) or negatively charged bis-sulfoamino-PEG in an aqueous two-phase system of dextran T500 and PEG 6000, the partition of the IgG-sensitized bacteria was affected by either of the polymers, whereas that of the parent bacteria was not. The hydrophobic effect of IgG binding was enhanced by complement. With heat-inactivated complement, the effect of IgG was diminished. The F(ab')2 fragment showed a much lower capacity to promote a hydrophobic interaction than the complete IgG molecule. 相似文献

Pathologic calcification is thought to be the main cause of failure in the present generation tissue valves fabricated from glutaraldehyde pretreated bovine pericardium (BP). The present investigation describes the in vitro calcification and enzymatic degradation of bovine pericardia after hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDIC) crosslinking and subsequent modification with polyethylene glycol. The enzymatic degradation of these treated surfaces were monitored by scanning electron micrography and tensile strength measurements. Various proteases, such as alpha-chymotrypsin, bromelain, esterase, trypsin and collagenase were investigated for tissue stability. Incubation of these enzymes with crosslinked pericardia had variably reduced their tensile strength. Among these treated surfaces, polyethylene glycol (PEG) grafted BP via isocyanate functionalities had retained maximum strength. The PEG modified tissues had also indicated a substantial reduction in calcification, when compared to other treated tissues. Further, the biocompatibility of various pericardial tissues were established by platelet adhesion and octane contact angle measurements. It is assumed that the PEG modification of pericardium may interfere with the cellular activation of injury (platelets) to reduce tissue associated calcification. In conclusion, it seems the PEG modification of bovine pericardium via HMDIC may provide new ways of controlling tissue biodegradation and calcification. However, more in vivo studies are needed to develop applications. 相似文献

Ligaments and tendons have previously been tissue engineered. However, without the bone attachment, implantation of a tissue-engineered ligament would require it to be sutured to the remnant of the injured native tissue. Due to slow repair and remodeling, this would result in a chronically weak tissue that may never return to preinjury function. In contrast, orthopaedic autograft reconstruction of the ligament often uses a bone-to-bone technique for optimal repair. Since bone-to-bone repairs heal better than other methods, implantation of an artificial ligament should also occur from bone-to-bone. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of a poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel incorporated with hydroxyapatite (HA) and the cell-adhesion peptide RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) as a material for creating an in vitro tissue interface to engineer intact ligaments (i.e., bone-ligament-bone). Incorporation of HA into PEG hydrogels reduced the swelling ratio but increased mechanical strength and stiffness of the hydrogels. Further, HA addition increased the capacity for cell growth and interface formation. RGD incorporation increased the swelling ratio but decreased mechanical strength and stiffness of the material. Optimum levels of cell attachment were met using a combination of both HA and RGD, but this material had no better mechanical properties than PEG alone. Although adherence of the hydrogels containing HA was achieved, failure occurs at about 4 days with 5% HA. Increasing the proportion of HA improved interface formation; however, with high levels of HA, the PEG HA composite became brittle. This data suggests that HA, by itself or with other materials, might be well suited for engineering the ligament-bone interface. 相似文献

The existing surgical adhesives are not ideal for wet tissue adhesion required in many surgeries such as those for internal organs. Developing surgical adhesives with strong wet tissue adhesion, controlled degradability and mechanical properties, and excellent biocompatibility has been a significant challenge. Herein, learning from nature, we report a one-step synthesis of a family of injectable citrate-based mussel-inspired bioadhesives (iCMBAs) for surgical use. Within the formulations investigated, iCMBAs showed 2.5-8.0 folds stronger wet tissue adhesion strength over the clinically used fibrin glue, demonstrated controlled degradability and tissue-like elastomeric mechanical properties, and exhibited excellent cyto/tissue-compatibility both in?vitro and in?vivo. iCMBAs were able to stop bleeding instantly and suturelessly, and close wounds (2?cm long?×?0.5?cm deep) created on the back of Sprague-Dawley rats, which is impossible when using existing gold standard, fibrin glue, due to its weak wet tissue adhesion strength. Equally important, the new bioadhesives facilitate wound healing, and are completely degraded and absorbed without eliciting significant inflammatory response. Our results support that iCMBA technology is highly translational and could have broad impact on surgeries where surgical tissue adhesives, sealants, and hemostatic agents are used. 相似文献

Background: Although laparoscopic surgery has decreased postoperative adhesions, complications induced by adhesions are still of great concern. The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-adhesive effects of a novel powdered anti-adhesion material that can be applied during laparoscopic surgery in comparison with other anti-adhesion materials. Methods:Our novel powdered anti-adhesion material is composed of aldehyde dextran and ε-poly(L-lysine). In 40 male rats, a 2.5×2.0-cm abdominal wall resection and cecum abrasion were performed. The rats were randomized into four groups based on the anti-adhesion treatments: normal saline; Seprafilm®; Interceed®; and novel powdered anti-adhesion material. The animals were euthanized on days 7 and 28 to evaluate the adhesion severity, area of adhesion formation, gross appearance, and pathological changes. Results: The adhesion severities on both days 7 and 28 were significantly lower for all anti-adhesion material groups compared with the normal saline group (p<0.05). Pathologically, all groups showed inflammatory cell infiltration on day 7 and complete regeneration of the peritoneum on day 28. Conclusions:Our novel powdered anti-adhesion material was found to be effective for reducing postoperative intra-abdominal adhesions and showed equivalent efficacy to commercial anti-adhesion materials. 相似文献

Bovine erythrocytes (RBCs) exposed to Moraxella bovis culture supernatants exhibited rapid leakage of intracellular K+ (95% in 10 min), slower cell swelling (1.20-fold increase in mean corpuscular volume in 20 min), and subsequent lysis (76% leakage of hemoglobin in 25 min). Incubation media made hypertonic by the addition of 75 mM carbohydrates with molecular diameters of 0.72 to 1.32 nm prevented hemolysin-induced RBC swelling, but incubation media made hypertonic by the addition of carbohydrates with molecular diameters of less than 0.72 nm did not protect against hemolysin-induced RBC swelling. Raffinose (75 mM; molecular diameter, 1.14 nm) did not block hemolysin-induced K+ leakage but did block hemolysis. These findings support the hypothesis that hemolysin-induced lysis occurs by colloid-osmotic swelling and are compatible with M. bovis hemolysin acting as a pore-forming cytolysin. Assuming that M. bovis hemolysin acts as a transmembrane molecular sieve, then the functional size of the hemolysin transmembrane pores in bovine RBCs is approximately 0.9 nm, the molecular size of sucrose. Hemolytic activity was inhibited by the Ca2+ chelator ethylene glycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA), but hemolysin-induced K+ leakage was not affected by EGTA. 相似文献

Cardiovascular calcification, the formation of calcium phosphate deposits in cardiovascular tissue, is a common end stage phenomenon affecting a wide variety of bioprosthesis. This study proposes a novel approach of reducing pericardial calcification and thrombosis via coupling polyethylene glycols (PEG) to glutaraldehyde treated bovine pericardium via acetal linkages. The calcification of the PEG modified tissue and the control pericardium (extracted and glutaraldehyde treated) was investigated by in vivo rat subcutaneous implantation models and by in vitro meta stable calcium phosphate solutions. Scanning electron microscopy showed that calcification primarily involved the surface of collagen fibrils and the intrafibrillar spaces. However, the grafting of pericardium with PEG-20,000 had dramatically modified the surface and subsequently inhibited the deposits of calcium. Further, the modified tissue had also reduced the platelet surface attachment. Such a reduced calcification of PEG modified tissues can be explained by decrease of free aldehyde groups, a space filling effect and therefore improved biostability and synergistic blood compatible effects of PEG after coupling to the tissues. This simple method can be a useful anticalcification treatment for implantable tissue valves. 相似文献

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-grafted hyaluronan (PNIPAM-HA) and PNIPAM-grafted gelatin (PNIPAM-gelatin), which exhibit sol-to-gel transformation at physiological temperature, were applied as control of tissue adhesions: tissue adhesion prevention material and hemostatic aid, respectively. The rat cecum, which was abraded using surgical gauze, was coated with PNIPAM-HA-containing PBS (concentration: 0.5 w/v%). The coated solution was immediately converted to an opaque precipitate at body temperature, which weakly adhered to and covered the injured rat cecum. One week after coating, tissue adhesion between the PNIPAM-HA-treated cecum and adjacent tissues was significantly reduced as compared with that between non-treated tissue and adjacent tissues. On the other hand, the coating of bleeding spots of a canine liver with PNIPAM-gelatin-containing PBS (concentration: 20 w/v%) resulted in spontaneous gel formation on the tissues and subsequently suppressed bleeding. Although these thermoresponsive tissue adhesion prevention and hemostatic materials are still prototypes at this time, both thermoresponsive biomacromolecules bioconjugated with PNIPAM, PNIPAM-HA and PNIPAM-gelatin, may serve as a tissue adhesion prevention material and hemostatic aid, respectively. 相似文献
