| Popis: |
A sandwich-structure like electrospun membrane of polylactic acid (PLA)/nano-hydroxyapatite (nHAP) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/sodium alginate (SA)/nHAP was fabricated for skull defect repair. By controlling the number of repeated AB (A: hydrophobic layer of PLA/nHAP; B: hydrophilic layer of PVA/SA/nHAP) units with a fixed thickness, ABA and BAB sandwich-like structures were constructed to improve the integration of hydrophobic and hydrophilic layers. The results show that the ABA sandwich-like structure played a dominant role in the interface fusion. The tensile strength and interface bonding force were obviously enhanced, which was attributed to the fiber entanglement. Compared to the PLA/nHAP membrane, the composite membrane showed significantly improved water absorption capacity. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that the composite membrane had good biocompatibility and promoted the repair of skull defects. Therefore, the proposed sandwich-like structure is a feasible strategy to facilitate the adhesion of hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibers in electrospun membranes and to achieve a properly-integrated membrane for tissue defect repair. |
