ABSTRACT
Meeting the exacting demands of wound healing encompasses rapid coagulation, superior exudate absorption, high antibacterial efficacy, and imperative support for cell growth. In this study, by emulating the intricate structure of natural skin, we prepare a multifunctional porous bilayer artificial skin to address these critical requirements. The bottom layer, mimicking the dermis, is crafted through freeze-drying a gel network comprising carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCs) and gelatin (GL), while the top layer, emulating the epidermis, is prepared via electrospinning poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibers. With protocatechuic aldehyde and gallium ion complexation (PA@Ga) as cross-linking agents, the bottom PA@Ga-CMCs/GL layer featured an adjustable pore size (78-138 µm), high hemostatic performance (67s), and excellent bacterial inhibition rate (99.9%), complemented by an impressive liquid-absorbing capacity (2000% swelling rate). The top PLLA layer, with dense micronanostructure and hydrophobic properties, worked as a shield to effectively thwarted liquid or bacterial penetration. Furthermore, accelerated wound closure, reduced inflammatory responses, and enhanced formation of hair follicles and blood vessels are achieved by the porous artificial skin covered on the surface of wound. Bilayer artificial skin integrates the advantages of nanofibers and freeze-drying porous materials to effectively replicate the protective properties of the epidermal layer of the skin, as well as the cell migration and tissue regeneration of the dermis. This bioabsorbable artificial skin demonstrates structural and functional comparability to real skin, which would advance the field of wound care through its multifaceted capabilities.
