This invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogel materials for myocardial repair, specifically relating to an
oxygen-generating hydrogel for myocardial repair and its preparation method. The invention involves modifying GelMA with KH570 in PBS buffer to prepare KH570-GelMA, and oxidizing
cobalt chloride,
strontium chloride,
sodium hydroxide, and
sodium hypochlorite in
aqueous solution to prepare CoOOH-Sr nanosheets. The CoOOH-Sr nanosheets are then mixed with the KH570-GelMA solution and a
photoinitiator is introduced for in-situ curing to prepare the
oxygen-generating hydrogel. By modifying GelMA with KH570, the crosslinking density is controlled, increasing the hydrogel
porosity. The introduction of CoOOH-Sr functional molecules enables controlled
oxygen production, alleviating local hypoxia, improving the
cell compatibility and bioactivity of the hydrogel, promoting
cardiomyocyte proliferation and tissue regeneration, and allowing for the construction of injectable or patch-like hydrogel patches suitable for
myocardial infarction models.
