Abstract

Nowadays, many strategies have been developed to design biomaterials to accelerate bacteria-infected wound healing. Here, we presented a new type of multicargo-loaded inverse opal hydrogel microparticle (IOHM) for regulating oxidative stress, antibiosis, and angiogenesis of the bacteria-infected wound. The methacrylate acylated gelatin (GelMA)-based inverse opal hydrogel microparticles (IOHMs) were obtained by using the colloidal crystal microparticles as templates, and fullerol, silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were loaded in IOHMs. The developed multicargo-loaded IOHMs displayed good size distribution and biocompatibility, and when they were applied in cell culture, bacteria culture, and animal experiments, they exhibited excellent anti-oxidative stress properties, antibacterial properties, and angiogenesis. These characteristics of the developed multicargo-loaded IOHMs make them ideal for bacteria-infected wound healing.
