Beta-thujaplicin/ZnO nanoparticles/polycaprolactone/poly(ethylene glycol) nanofibers promotes healing of wounds with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection
To prepare composite nanofibers fabricated using beta-thujaplicin
zinc oxide nanoparticles
polycaprolactone
and polyethylene glycol (β-T/ZnONPs/PCL/PEG) and evaluate its effect in promoting healing of wounds infected by methicillin-resistant
Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA).
Methods
2
The composite nanofibers with different formulations were fabricated using electrospinning technique and its structures were observed with scanning electron microscopy. The structure and the chemical bonds of the nanofibers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry
and its thermodynamic property was characterized by differential scanning calorimetry. Dilution method was used to evaluate the antibacterial activity
and MTT assay was used to assess the cytotoxicity of the nanofibers. The effect of the nanofibers in promoting wound healing was evaluated in a BALB/c rat model of wound infection by MRSA.
Results
2
With diameter of (255.98±56.08) nm
1%β-T/0.25%ZnONPs/PCL/PEG nanofibers showed a good compatibility between the drug and the carrier material. 0.5%β-T/0.5%ZnONPs/PCL/PEG and 1%β-T/0.25%ZnONPs/PCL/PEG nanofibers had similar antibacterial (
P
>
0.05) and biocompatibility profiles (
P
>
0.05)
and both met the GB/T 16886.5-2011 standards. Animal studies showed that all the drug-loaded nanofibers obviously promoted healing of the wounds infected by MRSA on days 7
11 and 15 following model establishment (
P
<
0.05)
and dressing with β-T/ZnONPs/PCL/PEG nanofibers achieved a significantly higher wound healing rate than with the other materials on day 11 (
P
<
0.05). HE staining also showed that β-T/ZnONPs/PCL/PEG nanofibers significantly accelerated wound healing as compared with the other materials.
Conclusions
2
β-T/ZnONPs/PCL/PEG nanofibers prepared using electrospinning technique meet the requirements for an ideal wound dressing material and can be a promising material for clinical treatment of wound with MRSA infection.
