| Abstract |
To improve the mechanical properties of collagen hydrogels, which are widely utilized as biomaterials, post-cross-linking of collagen hydrogels was performed using polyrotaxane (PRX) as a cross-linker. Herein, carboxymethyl group-modified PRXs (CMPRs) composed of carboxymethylated α-cyclodextrins (α-CDs) threaded along poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) capped with bulky stoppers were used to cross-link via reaction with the amino groups in the collagen. Four series of CMPRs with different α-CD threading ratios and axle PEG molecular weights were used for the post-cross-linking of the collagen hydrogels to verify the optimal CMPR chemical compositions. The post-cross-linking of the collagen hydrogels with CMPRs improved the swelling ratios and mechanical properties, such as viscoelasticity and tensile strength. Among the tested CMPRs, CMPRs with an axle PEG molecular weight of 35,000 (PEG35k) resulted in better mechanical properties than CMPRs with a PEG10k axis. Additionally, the cell adhesion and proliferation were greatly improved on the surface of the collagen hydrogels post-cross-linked with CMPRs with the PEG35k axle. These findings suggest that the molecular weight of an axle polymer in CMPRs is a more important parameter than the α-CD threading ratios. Accordingly, the post-cross-linking of hydrogels with PRXs is promising for improving the mechanical properties and biomaterial functions of collagen hydrogels.
