Modulating Expanded Polytetrafluoroethylene Vascular Graft Host Response via Citric Acid‐Based Biodegradable Elastomers

Abstract: A biodegradable polyester elastomer, poly(1,8‐octanediol citrate) (POC), is used to modify the lumen of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) grafts via a spin‐shearing method followed by interfacial in situ polycondensation. We demonstrate successful surface modification of ePTFE grafts without affecting graft compliance (see figure). The POC interface confers hydrophilicity, reduced thrombogenicity, facilitated graft endothelialization in vitro, and reduced macrophage infiltration on the ePTFE grafts.

“…4 Specifically, poly(1,8-octanediol citrate) (POC), has recently been proposed for use as a biphasic scaffold for tissue engineering blood vessels and to improve the hemocompatibility of ePTFE vascular grafts. 5,6 However, the hemocompatibility of POC has not been fully investigated. Hemocompatibility characteristics will be especially important if an in vivo tissue engineering approach is pursued since the remodeling graft may have direct contact with flowing blood.…”

“…For example, POC supports the attachment, proliferation, and differentiation of a variety of vascular cells including human aortic smooth muscle and endothelial cells (EC), porcine endothelial cells isolated and differentiated in vitro from circulating progenitor cells in peripheral blood, and porcine smooth muscle and endothelial cells. 17,[33][34][35][36] In addition, when compared to ePTFE vascular grafts, POC was not thrombogenic and did not cause inflammation. 17,[33][34][35][36] However, before POC scaffolds can be used for in vitro cell culture and development studies it is important to understand the mechanical and degradation behavior of POC tubular scaffolds.…”

“…The peaks at 3.388-3.764 ppm contributed the proton signal of -OCH 2 CH 2 -units from diol [26]. The multiple peaks around 7.005-7.527 ppm were attributed indole ring from indole-3-acetic acid [27], which has aromatic moieties present in polymeric product. This polymeric hydrogel was observed -NH peak at 10.724-10.970 ppm appeared from indole-3-acetic acid (Fig.…”
