| Summary: | Delayed surface endothelialization is a bottleneck that restricts the further application of cardiovascular stents. It has been reported that the nature-inspired extracellular matrix (ECM) secreted by the hyaluronic acid (HA) micro-patterned smooth muscle cells (SMC) and endothelial cells (EC) can significantly promote surface endothelialization. However, this ECM coating obtained by decellularized method (dECM) is difficult to obtain directly on the surface of degradable magnesium (Mg) alloy. In this study, the method of obtaining bionic dECM by micro-patterning SMC/EC was further improved, and the nature-inspired ECM was prepared onto the Mg-Zn-Y-Nd (ZE21B) alloy surface by self-assembly. The results showed that the ECM coating not only improved surface endothelialization of ZE21B alloy, but also presented better blood compatibility, anti-hyperplasia, and anti-inflammation functions. The innovation and significance of the study is to overcome the disadvantage of traditional dECM coating and further expand the application of dECM coating to the surface of degradable materials and materials with different shapes. |
