Wound healing is a complex and dynamic process of replacing missing cellular structures tissue layers. Clinical practice includes the application sterile bandage to promote restrain infection, like commercial nonbiodegradable meshes. However, while inert, nontoxic, nonimmunogenic, they can cause calcification, fibrosis, inflammation, potentially hindering in long term. To address this challenge enhance wound healing, we developed totally biodegradable electrospun poly(d,l-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PDLLCL) drug delivery system that incorporates two already FDA-approved antifibrotics, pirfenidone (PIRF) triamcinolone acetonide (TA). The PDLLCL meshes, fabricated via electrospinning, exhibited homogeneity complete degradation after 120 days, consistent with process. In vitro, functional analysis on RAW 264.7 macrophages revealed no cytotoxicity an immunomodulatory effect PIRF TA compared positive control (lipopolysaccharides, LPS) meshes alone. Lastly, subcutaneous vivo assessment rabbit model, following ISO 10993-6 standard, showed our tailored made were able lower both irritation fibrosis indexes from 2 weeks 4 implantation, highlighting beneficial polymers. saw significant incorporation antifibrotics for indexes.
