PCL microspheres containing magnesium hydroxide for dermal filler with enhanced physicochemical and biological performances

초록/요약

Polymeric microspheres containing magnesium hydroxide (MH) was developed as a functional dermalfiller with enhanced physicochemical and biological performances. In this study, polycaprolactone (PCL)and MH microspheres (PCL/MH) were uniformly produced with approximately 50 mm in size through asimplefluidic device. In the PCL/MH composite, MH effectively neutralized the acidic degradationproducts generated by polymer degradation. In in vitro cell experiments, when MH was treated withacidic decomposition product (i.e., 6-hydroxycaproic acid, HCA), the acidic pH was neutralized to inducewound healing along with inhibition of inflammation and senescence. Furthermore, MH promoted theproduction of collagen. These results suggest that the PCL/MH microspheres have great potential as afunctional dermalfiller for skin esthetics and facial plastic surgery.
