Preparation of silk fibroin/hyaluronic acid composite hydrogel based on thiol-ene click chemistry / 浙江大学学报·医学版

OBJECTIVES@#To design and prepare silk fibroin/hyaluronic acid composite hydrogel.@*METHODS@#The thiol modified silk fibroin and the double-bond modified hyaluronic acid were rapidly cured into gels through thiol-ene click polymerization under ultraviolet light condition. The grafting rate of modified silk fibroin and hyaluronic acid was characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy; the gel point and the internal microstructure of hydrogels were characterized by rheological test and scanning electron microscopy; the mechanical properties were characterized by compression test; the swelling rate and degradation rate were determined by mass method. The hydrogel was co-cultured with the cells, the cytotoxicity was measured by the lactate dehydrogenase method, the cell adhesion was measured by the float count method, and the cell growth and differentiation on the surface of the gel were observed by scanning electron microscope and fluorescence microscope.@*RESULTS@#The functional group substitution degrees of modified silk fibroin and hyaluronic acid were 17.99% and 48.03%, respectively. The prepared silk fibroin/hyaluronic acid composite hydrogel had a gel point of 40-60 s and had a porous structure inside the gel. The compressive strength was as high as 450 kPa and it would not break after ten cycles. The water absorption capacity of the composite hydrogel was 4-10 times of its own weight. Degradation experiments showed that the hydrogel was biodegradable, and the degradation rate reached 28%-42% after 35 d. The cell biology experiments showed that the cytotoxicity of the composite gel was low, the cell adhesion was good, and the growth and differentiation of the cells on the surface of the gel were good.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The photocurable silk fibroin/hyaluronic acid composite hydrogel can form a gel quickly, and has excellent mechanical properties, adjustable swelling rate and degradation degree, good biocompatibility, so it has promising application prospects in biomedicine.

Advances in proteomics in elderly patients with frailty / 中华老年医学杂志

With population aging,the number of elderly subjects with frailty is increasing,and frailty can lead to adverse clinical outcomes.Early screening,early diagnosis and early prevention and treatment of frailty have important clinical significance.Due to increasing demand for early screening,early diagnosis and prognosis assessment,preliminary screening for frailty based on characteristic changes in specific proteomics may be a promising diagnostic strategy.At present,most research mainly focuses on skeletal muscle proteomics,inflammatory proteomics and vascular system proteomics.This review will summarize and analyze recent proteomic studies on protein profiles of frailty and non-frailty subjects.
