Abstract

Tourmaline, a kind of natural borosilicate mineral with complex elements and single symmetry axis, has both spontaneous polarization and infrared emission characteristics. In this work, tourmaline/polyurethane (T/PU) composite fibers are prepared to form vascular graft (diameter = 1.5 ± 0.2 mm) by electrospinning technology; its biocompatibility and patency for substituting abdominal aorta in rat are evaluated. Results show that tourmaline nanoparticles as additives improve the surface performance of artificial small-diameter vascular graft and then prevent its easy stenosis in clinical procedures. Tourmaline nanoparticles regulate the wettability and negative charges of composite fibrous membrane, which resist platelet adhesion and stimulate cell activity; thus, T/PU composite reveals the better anti-coagulation capability than that of pure PU graft and also emerges the better anti-inflammation function and larger internal diameter after 12 weeks of implantation in vivo. These results present a simple approach to improve the long-term patency of small-diameter vascular graft by natural tourmaline, potentially in tissue engineering.
