Abstract

Owing to the noticeable increase in the number of patients with impaired wound healing capabilities, developing bioactive wound dressings with supportive physicomechanical and biological properties for clinical wound management has attracted much more attention nowadays. In this regard, engineered dressings with angiogenesis potential are vital for accelerated tissue regeneration. In the current study, nanoniosomal deferoxamine (DFO)-loaded transparent films of egg white-poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA/EW/ND) were successfully fabricated at three different PVA/EW ratios (1:0, 1:1, and 1:1.5 wt/wt %) through the thin film hydration and solvent casting methods. The developed films' characterizations were carried out using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis, uniaxial tensile strength, water uptake, water vapor transmission rate, in vitro degradation, and drug release. The results demonstrated that the various weight ratios of PVA/EW have a significant effect on the microscopic morphology, equilibrium swelling, degradation, and mechanical properties of the films. The drug release profile exhibited a sustained release of DFO with controlled burst-lag phases resembling the Korsmeyer-Peppas pattern. The cytotoxicity and adhesion analysis using human dermal fibroblasts displays the biocompatibility of the developed PVA/EW/ND films and the formation of cellular colonies on the surface. The in vitro angiogenic capability of the developed films evaluated by the scratch wound assay and microbead-assisted tube formation study showed a significant increase in the rate of migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and in the number of tube-like structures. Therefore, the achieved results suggest that the presented PVA/EW/ ND film has promising potential for effective wound healing applications.
