摘要
The application of polypropylene mesh(PPM)in pelvic organ prolapse(POP)treatment was severely limited by the complications associated with PPM,such as mesh exposure,chronic inflammatory reactions and postoperative hematoma.This study applied a method of fabricating a hydrogel-mesh complex(PPM+TA@GelMA)to cross-link tannic acid(TA)directly with Methacrylate Gelatin(GelMA)hydrogel and thus to form a coating for PPM.This one-step coating modification improved the hydrophilicity and cyto-compatibility of PPM.The hemostatic effect of PPMtTA@GelMA was confirmed through tail amputation test.Through the defect tissue repair experiments in vivo,it was proved that PPMtTA@GelMA had effects of anti-inflammation and promoting tissue repair and regulated the M2 subtype macrophages polarization for tissue repair.The TAloaded hydrogel coating endued PPM with multiple functions.It is believed that the novel hydrogel-mesh complex and its fabrication method will have great significance in basic research and clinical application.
