Development of the PVA/CS nanofibers containing silk protein sericin as a wound dressing: In vitro and in vivo assessment.

Abstract:

:Skin and soft tissue infections are major concerns with respect to wound repair. Recently, anti-bacterial wound dressings have been emerging as promising candidates to reduce infection, thus accelerating the wound healing process. This paper presents our work to develop and characterize poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/chitosan (CS)/silk sericin (SS)/tetracycline (TCN) porous nanofibers, with diameters varying from 305 to 425 nm, both in vitro and in vivo for potential applications as wound dressings. The fabricated nanofibers possess a considerable capacity to take up water through swelling (~325-650%). Sericin addition leads to increased hydrophilicity and elongation at break while decreasing fiber diameter and mechanical strength. Moreover, fibroblasts (L929) cultured on the nanofibers with low sericin content (PVA/CS/1-2SS) displayed greater proliferation compared to those on nanofibers without sericin (PVA/CS). Nanofibers loaded with high sericin and tetracycline content significantly inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In vivo examination revealed that PVA/CS/2SS-TCN nanofibers enhance wound healing, re-epithelialization, and collagen deposition compared to traditional gauze and nanofibers without sericin. The results of this study demonstrate that the PVA/CS/2SS-TCN nanofiber creates a promising alternative to traditional wound dressing materials.
