Silver nanoparticle loaded collagen/chitosan scaffolds promote wound healing via regulating fibroblast migration and macrophage activation

Abstract: Treatment of full-thickness skin defects poses significant clinical challenges including risk of infection and severe scaring. Silver nanoparticle (NAg), an effective antimicrobial agent, has provided a promising therapeutic method for burn wounds. However, the detailed mechanism remains unknown. Hence, we constructed a metallic nanosilver particles-collagen/chitosan hybrid scaffold (NAg-CCS) and investigated its potential effects on wound healing. In vitro scratch assay, immunofluorescence staining and antiba… Show more

“…Moreover, it inhibited inflammation in skin wounds (studies on C57BL/mice). You et al [250] fabricated collagen/chitosan scaffold modified with silver nanoparticles (NAg). The in vitro experiments showed that NAg/collagen/chitosan biomaterial possessed antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus as well as promoted migration of skin cells (studies on co-culture of mouse embryo fibroblasts and human skin keratinocytes (HaCaT)).…”

“…This technique is suitable to study the paracrine signals (conditioned media) produced by stem (10) or other types of cells under either mechanical (7) or electrical stimuli (11). Furthermore, it is possible to study the response of free cells and those seeded on scaffolds made of both synthetic polymers and natural extracellular matrices (7,(12)(13)(14). In this context, the in vitro scratch wound healing assay is useful to evaluate the proliferation and migration process when exposing cells to metabolites present in the conditioned media.…”

“…Because of the well‐known pronounced antimicrobial activity of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), they may be used as an efficient nanofiller in wound dressings to eliminate various types of pathogens . In addition, AgNPs are able to regulate fibroblast migration and macrophage activation, thus promoting wound healing .…”
