- Abstract
The objective of regenerative wound healing dressings is to accelerate skin tissue regeneration and restore normal physiological function at wound sites. Achieving this goal requires biomaterials capable of repairing distinct phases of wound healing in a way that balances material function, degradation, safety, and tissue growth. In this study, we introduced a novel dual-stage wound dressing system comprising methacrylic anhydride-modified recombinant humanized type III collagen (rhCol III-MA) and methacrylic anhydride-modified dopamine (DMA) (RMDM), which was synthesized through free radical polymerization and π-π stacking. Within this system, RMDM was formulated into two forms with identical compositions: hydrogel and sponge, tailored for application across various stages of wound repair. These materials displayed favorable hemocompatibility, biocompatibility, antioxidant properties, and angiogenic potential in vitro. Moreover, the in vivo experiments also demonstrated that sponges could rapidly stop the bleeding of wounds in mouse tail amputation and liver incision models. Notably, the sponge/gel (S/G) system accelerated wound healing compared to individual sponge and gel treatments in a rat full-thickness skin wound model, underscoring the synergistic benefits of combining sponge and gel materials for wound repair at different stages. Therefore, this research provides valuable insights into designing advanced biomaterials that can be tailored to specific stages of wound healing, which may have significant potential for biomedical applications.
