Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of biological medicine and biomaterial technology, and particularly relates to an anti-scar dressing for shielding wound tension and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] From the perspective of molecular analysis, skin scar can be understood as a fibrosis disease caused by incomplete repair of skin damage. In clinical research, it is found that the disease usually occurs more easily in positions where the skin is highly tensioned and rigid, such as joints, chest, upper back and shoulders. Complications such as protruding skin surface, irregular shape, redness and bleeding, pain and itching of the scar not only affect the appearance, but also cause limb contracture and lead to limb dysfunction, and even cause skin cancer and endanger life. Therefore, the stress field in the wound bed is considered to be a key factor affecting the pathological fibrosis of skin tissue, i.e., leading to the formation of skin scar. If measures are taken to balance the tension in the wound bed, the stimulation to the skin keratinocytes and the over-activation of fibroblasts can be reduced. This will avoid the deformation of the surface structure and dermis structure of the skin tissue caused by the large deposition of collagen, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing skin scar.

[0003] At present, the common means for preventing and treating scars in the clinic mainly include injection of drugs, surgery, radiation, laser and physical rehabilitation. However, invasive treatment methods often cause secondary damage to the body and increase the pain of patients. In comparison, non-invasive physical therapy may be more easily accepted by patients, such as common compression garments, elastic sleeves and scar dressings. Silicone gel scar patches mainly play a role in reducing skin scar by occlusion of the patch to enhance the hydration of keratinocytes. However, there is no dressing in the existing wound care standards that promotes scar-free healing of wounds by balancing the tension in the wound. SUMMARY

[0036] Step 3: after the gel is taken off from the template, it is soaked in physiological saline to replace the dimethyl sulfoxide solvent in the gel, and the gel preparation is successful, which needs to be soaked in physiological saline for about 24 hours, and the physiological saline needs to be replaced every 6 hours to accelerate the replacement of dimethyl sulfoxide molecules;

[0059] To study the performance and efficacy of a dressing made in Example 1, the following experiments were conducted:

[0060] 1. Evaluate the performance of the dressing in terms of temperature response shrinkable and skin tissue adherable

[0061] Firstly, the mold was used to prepare the gel dressing into a cylindrical gel block with a diameter of 15 mm and a thickness of 3 mm, which was placed in a glass culture dish, and then the glass culture dish was placed in a 37℃ water bath to simulate the temperature of human skin. And at different time points, the digital camera was used to take pictures to record the bottom area of the hydrogel block. ImageJ image processing software was used to calculate the bottom area of the hydrogel block at different time points. According to the formula: gel shrinkage rate = [(A0-A1) / A0]x100%, the gel shrinkage rate at different time points was calculated (the bottom areas of the gel at different time points were recorded as A0, A1, A2, A3……respectively), and the results are shown in Figure 1 The adhesion performance of the hydrogel was quantitatively analyzed by lap shear test using a pig skin model to measure the adhesion force of the hydrogel on the skin surface. The lap area between the pig skin and the hydrogel was pre-set to 100mm 2 , and the test rate of the sample was pre-set to 10mm / min, and the results are shown in Figure 2 .

[0062] 2. Dressing repair of full-thickness skin injury animal model experiment

[0063] Firstly, two circular full-thickness skin excision wounds with a diameter of 10 mm were made on the back skin of the rats, and the distance between the two wounds was greater than 20 mm. After the animal model was successfully constructed, the experimental group was treated with hydrogel dressing, and the control group was not treated. At the 6th week, the colorimeter and the universal mechanical tester were used to test the color of the skin and the strength of the new skin tissue, and the results are shown in Figure 3 . At the 6th week, the scar situation at the wound site was recorded by taking pictures, and the results are shown in Figure 4 .

[0064] 3. Effect of dressing treatment on scar formation of skin

[0065] The tissue was immersed in 10% formalin for one week for fixation, dehydrated in ethanol (70%, 90%, 95% and 100%), removed in xylene and embedded in paraffin, and 4-6μm thick sections were made with a rotary microtome, stained with hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) to observe the tissue repair; in addition, further analysis of collagen deposition and distribution and proportion of type I and type III collagen was carried out by Masson and Sirius red staining. The skin wound is stimulated by mechanical force, which activates the inflammatory pathway by adhering to the cytoplasmic kinase (FAK) through connecting the mechanical stress from the extracellular matrix to the cytoplasm, thereby promoting the transmission of cell signals. Fibroblasts are recruited to the wound through inflammatory signals, at which time the fibroblast-derived fibrosis-promoting cytokine (TGF-β1) promotes the proliferation of fibroblasts, exacerbating fibrosis and collagen deposition.

[0066] The above merely describes preferred specific embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art, according to the technical solution and inventive concept of the present application, makes equivalent replacement or change within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
