Magnetic Nanoparticle-Embedded Hydrogel Sheet with a Groove Pattern for Wound Healing Application.

Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can induce a pro-angiogenic response during tissue repair. Recently, EPC transplantations have been widely investigated in wound healing applications. To maximize the healing efficacy by EPCs, a unique scaffold design that allows cell retention and function would be desirable for in situ delivery. Herein, we fabricated an alginate/poly-l-ornithine/gelatin (alginate-PLO-gelatin) hydrogel sheet with a groove pattern for use as a cell delivery platform. In addition, we demonstrate the topographical modification of the hydrogel sheet surface with a groove pattern to modulate cell proliferation, alignment, and elongation. We report that the patterned substrate prompted morphological changes of endothelial cells, increased cell-cell interaction, and resulted in the active secretion of growth factors such as PDGF-BB. Additionally, we incorporated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) into the patterned hydrogel sheet for the magnetic field-induced transfer of cell-seeded hydrogel sheets. As a result, enhanced wound healing was observed via efficient transplantation of the EPCs with an MNP-embedded patterned hydrogel sheet (MPS). Finally, enhanced vascularization and dermal wound repair were observed with EPC seeded MPS.
