[Objective]
Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory condition requiring precise treatment. To address limitations of existing drug delivery systems, we developed a pH-responsive anti-inflammatory hydrogel (CPPI) for periodontitis. This hydrogel degrades in acidic, inflamed conditions, enabling targeted drug release via ultraviolet polymerization, enhancing therapeutic efficacy.
[Method]
The CPPI was synthesized by modifying carboxymethyl chitosan with phenylboronic acid and incorporating IGF-1-loaded polydopamine via UV irradiation. Its properties were analyzed using FTIR and rheological tests. In vitro (CCK-8, DPPH, qRT-PCR, Western Blot, antibacterial assays) and in vivo studies confirmed its anti-inflammatory and osteogenic effects. Transcriptome sequencing explored the mechanisms. The study was approved by the Laboratory Animal Ethics Committee of Zhejiang University School (approval number: AIRB-2024-2107).
[Results and Discussion]
FTIR and rheological tests confirmed CPPI’s properties. Drug release increased in inflammatory conditions. In vitro, CPPI reduced ROS, IL-6, TNF-α, and increased OCN and RUNX2, showing anti-inflammatory, osteogenic, and bactericidal effects. In vivo, it reduced periodontal inflammation and bone resorption, potentially via cell cycle pathways, indicating its potential for periodontitis treatment.
