The application discloses a multifunctional
biomaterial for posterior
sclera reinforcement, which is prepared by using layer-by-layer self-
assembly (LbL) surface functionalization technology to coat silk
fibroin (SF) on the surface of
small intestinal submucosa (SIS), and preparing a light cross-linked SF (SFMA) microgroove
coating with anisotropic characteristics on one side of the SIS for guiding
cell arrangement and growth, promoting tissue regeneration and repair; and preparing a light cross-linked SF and
sodium hyaluronate (SF-SH) mixed
coating on the other side for improving
biocompatibility and adhesion, so as to realize preparation of a multifunctional posterior
sclera reinforcement
biomaterial with controllable mechanical and degradation properties and capable of promoting surrounding tissue regeneration. The posterior
sclera reinforcement
biomaterial is cross-linked in the LbL mode to avoid toxic substance residues generated by cross-linking of SIS and traditional
glutaraldehyde. The light cross-linked SFMA microgroove
coating on one side can not only realize directional growth of fibroblasts, but also realize directional arrangement of
collagen type I secreted by the cells, and effectively realize
tissue integration. Meanwhile, the light cross-linked SF-SH mixed coating on the other side has excellent adhesion, which is helpful for positioning and attaching of the reinforcement material, and is of great significance to improving the effect of a posterior sclera reinforcement (PSR) operation and promoting long-term stable and
effective treatment of
pathological high myopia by using the biomaterial.
