Dual growth factor methacrylic alginate microgels combined with chitosan-based conduits facilitate peripheral nerve repair
Copyright © 2024. Published by Elsevier B.V..
Treating severe peripheral nerve injuries is difficult. Nerve repair with conduit small gap tubulization is a treatment option but still needs to be improved. This study aimed to assess the use of microgels containing growth factors, along with chitosan-based conduits, for repairing nerves. Using the water-oil emulsion technique, microgels of methacrylic alginate (AlgMA) that contained vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) were prepared. The effects on rat Schwann cells (RSC96) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were evaluated. Chitosan-based conduits were fabricated and used in conjunction with microgels containing two growth factors to treat complete neurotmesis in rats. The results showed that the utilization of dual growth factor microgels improved the migration and decreased the apoptosis of RSC96 cells while promoting the growth and formation of tubes in HUVECs. The utilization of dual growth factor microgels and chitosan-based conduits resulted in notable advancements in the regeneration and myelination of nerve fibers, recovery of neurons, alleviation of muscle atrophy and recovery of neuromotor function and nerve conduction. In conclusion, the use of dual growth factor AlgMA microgels in combination with chitosan-based conduits has the potential to significantly improve the effectiveness of nerve repair.
