Bioengineered and functionalized silk proteins accelerate wound healing in rat and human dermal fibroblasts.
Wound healing is an intrinsic process directed towards the restoration of damaged or lost tissue. The development of a dressing material having the ability to control the multiple aspects of the wound environment would be an ideal strategy to improve wound healing. Though natural silk proteins, fibroin, and sericin have demonstrated tissue regenerative properties, the efficacy of bioengineered silk proteins on wound healing is seldom assessed. Furthermore, silk proteins sans contaminants, having low molecular masses, and combining with other bioactive factors can hasten the wound healing process. Herein, recombinant silk proteins, fibroin and sericin, and their fusions with cecropin B were evaluated for their wound-healing effects using in vivo rat model. The recombinant silk proteins demonstrated accelerated wound closure in comparison to untreated wounds and treatment with Povidone. Among all groups, the treatment with recombinant sericin-cecropin B (RSC) showed significantly faster healing, greater than 90% wound closure by Day 12 followed by recombinant fibroin-cecropin B (RFC) (88.86%). Furthermore, histological analysis and estimation of hydroxyproline showed complete epithelialization, neovascularization, and collagenisation in groups treated with recombinant silk proteins. The wound healing activity was further verified by in vitro scratch assay using HADF cells, where the recombinant silk proteins induced cell proliferation and cell migration to the wound area. Additionally, wound healing-related gene expression showed recombinant silk proteins stimulated the upregulation of EGF and VEGF and regulated the expression of TGF-β1 and TGF-β3. Our results demonstrated the enhanced healing effects of the recombinant silk fusion proteins in facilitating complete tissue regeneration with scar-free healing. Therefore, the recombinant silks and their fusion proteins have great potential to be developed as smart bandages for wound healing.
期刊介绍:
Integrative Biology publishes original biological research based on innovative experimental and theoretical methodologies that answer biological questions. The journal is multi- and inter-disciplinary, calling upon expertise and technologies from the physical sciences, engineering, computation, imaging, and mathematics to address critical questions in biological systems.
Research using experimental or computational quantitative technologies to characterise biological systems at the molecular, cellular, tissue and population levels is welcomed. Of particular interest are submissions contributing to quantitative understanding of how component properties at one level in the dimensional scale (nano to micro) determine system behaviour at a higher level of complexity.
Studies of synthetic systems, whether used to elucidate fundamental principles of biological function or as the basis for novel applications are also of interest.
