For in situ tissue engineering (TE) applications it is important that implant degradation proceeds in concord with neo‐tissue formation to avoid graft failure. It will therefore be valuable to have an imaging contrast agent (CA) available that can report on the degrading implant. For this purpose, a biodegradable radiopaque biomaterial is presented, modularly composed of a bisurea chain‐extended polycaprolactone (PCL2000‐U4U) elastomer and a novel iodinated bisurea‐modified CA additive (I‐U4U). Supramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the components ensure their intimate mixing. Porous implant TE‐grafts are prepared by simply electrospinning a solution containing PCL2000‐U4U and I‐U4U. Rats receive an aortic interposition graft, either composed of only PCL2000‐U4U (control) or of PCL2000‐U4U and I‐U4U (test). The grafts are explanted for analysis at three time points over a 1‐month period. Computed tomography imaging of the test group implants prior to explantation shows a decrease in iodide volume and density over time. Explant analysis also indicates scaffold degradation. (Immuno)histochemistry shows comparable cellular contents and a similar neo‐tissue formation process for test and control group, demonstrating that the CA does not have apparent adverse effects. A supramolecular approach to create solid radiopaque biomaterials can therefore be used to noninvasively monitor the biodegradation of synthetic implants. 相似文献

Amphiphile supramolecular assemblies result from the cooperative effects of multiple weak interactions between a large number of subcomponents. As a result, prediction of and control over the morphologies of such assemblies remains difficult to achieve. Here, we described the fine-tuning of the shape, size, and morphology transitions of twisted and helical membranes formed by non-chiral dicationic n-2-n gemini amphiphiles complexed with chiral tartrate anions. We have reported that such systems express the chirality of the tartrate components at a supramolecular level and that the mechanism of the chiral induction by counterions involves specific anion cation recognition and the induction of conformationally labile chirality in the cations. Here, we demonstrate that the morphologies and dimensions of twisted and helical ribbons, as well as tubules, can be controlled and that interconversion between these structures can be induced upon modifying temperature, upon introducing small amounts of additives, or slightly modifying molecular structure. Specifically, electron microscopy, IR spectroscopy, and small-angle X-ray scattering show that (i) varying the hydrophobic chain length or adding gemini having bromide counterions (1%) or the opposite enantiomer (10%) leads to an increase of the diameter of membrane tubules from 33 to 48.5 nm; (ii) further addition (1.5%) of gemini bromide or a slight increase in temperature induces a transition from tubules to twisted ribbons; (iii) the twist pitch of the ribbons can be continuously tuned by varying enantiomeric excess; and (iv) it was also observed that the morphologies of these ribbons much evolve with time. Such unprecedented observations over easy tuning of the chiral supramolecular structures are clearly related to the original feature that the induction of chirality is solely due the counterions, which are much more mobile than the amphiphiles. 相似文献
