Tannic acid-loaded mesoporous silica particles as tissue adhesives for enhanced wound healing
Abstract
mouse skin wound, the inflammation score (+; presence of very few inflammatory cells) of xTA@Si was much lower than that after treatment with Dermabond (cyanoacrylate-based commercial tissue adhesives, +++++; exaggerated inflammatory cellularity) or smooth-surfaced silica particles (++++). The strong antioxidant activity of tannic acid loaded in the silica adhesives reduced the anti-inflammatory response during the wound healing process.
