Abstract:
:Recently, the progress in biomaterials for biomedical applications brings the focus of the research community toward nanomaterials. The nanofibrous matrices offer certain advantages (structural similarity to extracellular matrix, high surface area-to-volume ratio, increased elasticity, biostability, and strength) compared to other prevalent type of materials. This affirms their superiority and flexibility to be used in regenerative medicine. We have fabricated nonmulberry (Antheraea mylitta) silk protein sericin-based nanofibrous matrices (fiber thickness; 80-400 nm) with improved mechanical strength and desired stability (>4 weeks) as required for tissue reconstruction. These matrices support the adhesion, proliferation, and cellular interconnection of human keratinocytes. These are minimally hemolytic, nonimmunogenic, and capable of wound healing in vivo. Antibiotic (cephalexin hydrate [CH])-loaded nanofibrous matrices accelerate the full-thickness wound repair with minimal inflammation and without any signs of infection. The histological analysis authenticates skin restoration with re-epithelialization, generation of associated skin appendages, and synthesis of dense collagen fibrils. In addition, analysis of inflammatory genes and immunohistochemical assays have proved their biocompatibility and wound healing potential. Angiogenesis is also prevalent in the animal tissue treated with nanofibrous matrices. The results of in vitro and in vivo experimentations indicate a clear prospect of the fabricated sericin-based nanofibrous matrices to be used for skin regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE:Nonmulberry silk protein sericin-based nanofibrous matrix is a useful biomaterial for wound healing, collagen production, and skin tissue repair. It has been used in different formulations including hydrogels and nanofibrous membranes with chitosan (CS) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). No experiments have been carried out to evaluate sericin-based nanofibrous membranes for skin tissue engineering application. The present study shows that the nanofibrous matrices fabricated by electrospinning nonmulberry silk protein sericin with CS and PVA mimic the architectural environment of the extracellular matrix fibrils. These matrices are minimally hemolytic, are nonimmunogenic, and support better growth of human keratinocytes in vitro and wound healing in vivo with re-epithelialization of the skin tissue and angiogenesis. This work indicates that these nonmulberry sericin-based nanofibrous matrices with CS may be used as an ideal physical environment and biological cues for the promotion of skin tissue reconstruction and repair.
