Diabetic wounds are among the most challenging chronic wounds to heal, due to the presence of multiple factors, including continuous oxidative stress, impaired vascular integrity, and biofilm formation. The development of innovative treatment strategies is of paramount importance for the management of diabetic wounds. Stemmed from the pleiotropic physicochemical properties of ferrocene and spermidine, this essay reported the ferrocene-spermidine co-polymer (FcS) for the first time through facile amidation reaction. Molecular dynamics simulation revealed its self-assembly through hydrogen bonds, van der Waals forces instead of traditional nanoprecipitation. The self-assembled nanoparticles were demonstrated to exhibit great antioxidant property on cells to facilitate their migration and angiogenesis. Moreover, the integration with photocuring hydrogel, gelatin methacrylate (GelMA), to construct FcS nanoparticles loaded wound dressing (GelMA@FcS) further confirmed the potential on promoting diabetic wound enclosure through enhancement of re-epithelization and collagen deposition. Together with its great biocompatibility and biosafety, GelMA@FcS is expected to be developed into a wound dressing for clinical diabetic wounds management.
