In this study, a new wound dressing was developed to speed up the healing process of diabetic wounds. First of all, taxifolin liposome (TL) was manufactured in this study. Then, taxifolin (TAX) and TL were mixed with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and chitosan (CS) by electrostatic spinning to prepare nanocomposite membranes. Finally, the mechanism of nanocomposite membranes to accelerate diabetic wound healing was investigated. The diameter of TL-loaded polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan nanocomposite membranes (PVA/CS/TL) was 429.43 ± 78.07 nm. The results of in vitro experiments demonstrated that the PVA/CS/TL had better water absorption, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), porosity, hydrophilicity, mechanical properties, slow-release, antioxidant capacity, and antibacterial properties. The results of in vivo experiments demonstrated that the wound healing rate of mice treated with PVA/CS/TL for eighteen days was 98.39 ± 0.34 %. Histopathological staining, immunohistochemical staining, and western blot experiments also demonstrated that PVA/CS/TL could promote wound healing in diabetic mice by inhibiting the activation of inhibitor kappa B alpha (IκBα)/nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway and related pro-inflammatory factors to increase the expression of CD31 and VEGF in skin tissues. These results suggested that PVA/CS/TL could be a potential candidate for wound dressing to promote chronic skin wound healing.
