What is Alginate/poloxamer Hydrogel Obtained by Thiol-acrylate Photopolymerization for the Alleviation of the Inflammatory Response of Human Keratinocytes about?
Hydrogel-based wound dressings have been intensively studied as promising materials for wound healing and care. The mixed-mode thiol-acrylate photopolymerization is used in this paper for alginate/poloxamer hydrogels formation. First, the alginate was modified with thiol groups using the esterification reaction with cysteamine, and second, the terminal hydroxyl groups of poloxamer were esterified with acryloyl chloride to introduce polymerizable acrylate groups. Finally, the cross-linking reaction between the two macromers was performed to produce degradable alginate/poloxamer hydrogels. The optimum conditions for the photo-initiated reaction were studied in order to obtain high gel fractions. The resulting hydrogels have high swelling capacity in simulated physiological conditions, good elasticity and strength, and appropriate porosity, some of the physico-chemical properties required for their applications as wound dressings/patches. The biological assays show that the alginate/poloxamer hydrogels induce proliferation of human keratinocyte and have an anti-inflammatory effect on lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-activated keratinocytes by inhibiting the extracellular signal-regulated kin
