摘要

Hydrogels allow control of gel composition and mechanics, and permit incorporation of cells and a wide variety of molecules from nanoparticles to micromolecules. Peptide-linked hydrogels should tune the basic polymer into a more bioactive template to influence cellular activities. In this study, we first introduced the generation of 2D poly-(sulfobetaine methacrylate [SBMA]) hydrogel surfaces. By incorporating with functional peptide RGD and vascular endothelial growth factor-mimicking peptide KLTWQELYQLKYKG (QK) peptides, endothelial cells attached to the surface well and proliferated in a short-term culturing. However, the mechanical property, which plays a crucial role directing the cellular functions and supporting the structures, decreased when peptides graft onto hydrogels. Manipulating the mechanical property was thus necessary, and the most related factor was the monomer concentration. From our results, the higher amount of SBMA caused greater stiffness in hydrogels. Following the 2D surface studies, we fabricated 3D porous hydrogels for cell scaffolds by several methods. The salt/particle leaching method showed a more reliable way than gas-foaming method to fabricate homogeneous and open-interconnected pores within the hydrogel. Using the salt/particle leaching method, we can control the pore size before leaching. Morphology of endothelial cells within scaffolds was also investigated by scanning electron microscopy, and histological analysis was conducted in vitro and in vivo to test the biocompatibility of SB hydrogel and its potential as a therapeutic reagent for ischemic tissue repair in mice.
