Tissue repair engineering supported by nanoparticles and stem cells has been demonstrated as being an efficient strategy for promoting the healing potential during the regeneration of damaged tissues. In the current study, we prepared various nanomaterials including pure Pul, pure Col, Pul–Col, Pul–Au, Pul–Col–Au, and Col–Au to investigate their physicochemical properties, biocompatibility, biological functions, differentiation capacities, and anti-inflammatory abilities through in vitro and in vivo assessments. The physicochemical properties were characterized by SEM, DLS assay, contact angle measurements, UV-Vis spectra, FTIR spectra, SERS, and XPS analysis. The biocompatibility results demonstrated Pul–Col–Au enhanced cell viability, promoted anti-oxidative ability for MSCs and HSFs, and inhibited monocyte and platelet activation. Pul–Col–Au also induced the lowest cell apoptosis and facilitated the MMP activities. Moreover, we evaluated the efficacy of Pul–Col–Au in the enhancement of neuronal differentiation capacities for MSCs. Our animal models elucidated better biocompatibility, as well as the promotion of endothelialization after implanting Pul–Col–Au for a period of one month. The above evidence indicates the excellent biocompatibility, enhancement of neuronal differentiation, and anti-inflammatory capacities, suggesting that the combination of pullulan, collagen, and Au nanoparticles can be potential nanocomposites for neuronal repair, as well as skin tissue regeneration in any further clinical treatments. |
