ABSTRACT
Fatal massive hemorrhage and diabetic wound healing are world widely challenging in surgical managements, and uncontrolled bleeding, chronic inflammation and damaged remodeling heavily hinder the whole healing processes. Considering hemostasis, inflammation and wound microenvironment cooperatively affect the healing progression, we design all-in-one beta-glucan (BG) hybrid hydrogels reinforced with laponite nanoclay that demonstrate tunable tissue adhesion, resistant vascular burst pressure and cooperative wound microenvironment regulation for arterial hemostasis and diabetic wound prohealing. Those hydrogels had honeycomb-like porous microstructure with average pore size of 7-19 µm, tissue adhesion strength of 18-46 kPa, and vascular burst pressure of 58-174 mmHg to achieve superior hemostasis in rat liver and femoral artery models. They could effectively scavenge reactive oxygen species, transform macrophages from proinflammatory M1 into prohealing M2, and shorten the inflammation duration via synergistic actions of BG and nitric oxide (NO). Single treatment of NO-releasing BG hybrid hydrogels attained complete closure of diabetic wounds within 14 days, orchestrated to accelerate the epithelization and dermis growth, and restored normal vascularization, achieving high performance healing with optimal collagen deposition and hair follicle regeneration. Consequently, this work opens up a new avenue to design all-in-one polysaccharide hydrogels for applications in massive bleeding hemostats and diabetic wound dressings.
