ABSTRACT
Compromised angiogenesis is a major factor contributing delayed wound healing in diabetic patients. Graft-assisted healing using synthetic and natural scaffolds supplemented with micromolecules for stimulating angiogenesis is the contemporary tissue engineering strategy for treating diabetic wounds. This study deployed the carbodiimide chemical reaction for coupling gelatin with a porcine cholecyst-derived scaffold (CDS) for enhancing angiogenesis. The modification was confirmed by the trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid assay and scanning electron microscopy. The gelatin-coupled CDS was more stable than the bare CDS in an in vitro proteolytic environment and allowed survival of keratinocytes (HaCaT), indicating its suitability for chronic skin wound application. The gelatin coupling brought significant improvement in the in vitro angiogenic potential of the CDS as evident from the enhanced viability of endothelial cells. An in ovo chorioallantoic membrane assay also demonstrated the angiogenic potential of the modified scaffold. Further, the modified scaffold promoted angiogenesis and aided faster healing of full-thickness excision wounds in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. It is concluded that the gelatin-coupled CDS is a potential advanced wound care material for treating diabetic wounds.
