Porcine peritoneal acellular matrix(PPAM) is a promising alternative material, but its poor stability makes it difficult to meet the various needs of dural reconstruction. In this work, we developed a novel antibacterial cross-linking agent oxidized quaternized guar gum(OQGG) and used it for the first time to stabilize PPAM to construct a dural mater substitute(OQGG-PPAM). The results showed that 1.5%OQGG-PPAM presented suitable mechanical property as well as good thermal stability and resistance to enzymatic degradation. It also exhibited good antibacterial activity and good anti-leakage ability. Furthermore, 1.5% OQGG-PPAM not only exhibited excellent cell compatibility but also significantly stimulated the secretion of b FGF and VEGF from seeded cells which was convenient for dural remodeling. In vivo experiment, it also exhibited the excellent histocompatibility and good anti-adhesion property. This study showed that OQGG can be used as a novel antibacterial cross-linking reagent for crosslinking natural tissues and 1.5% OQGG-PPAM was a potential candidate material for dura mater substitute.展开更多
