Abstract
The purpose of this study was to develop a promising burns dressing. Chiosan (CS) has been widely used as biomaterials, in combination with marine peptides (MPs) extracted from seawater cultured Tilapia, the newly developed material Chitosan-Marine Peptides hydrogels (CSMP) in this study showed antibacterial activity, pro-cell proliferation and migration, well burning healing. Pathological examinations by HE staining demonstrated that CSMP had pronounced wound healing efficiencies. In burn wounds treated with CSMP, reepithelialization and collagen fiber deposition were observed on day 7, the epithelium was completely regenerated by day 14, and the wounds were completely healed by day 21. Furthermore, CSMP can up-regulate the expression of FGF2 and VEGF. Collectively, these results suggest that CSMP may enhance cell migration and promote the skin regeneration, which demonstrates the potential application of CSMP in burning healing.
