Self-assembly of bovine serum albumin (BSA)–dextran bio-nanoconjugate: structural, antioxidant and in vitro wound healing studies

Abstract

Glycation of proteins is often considered as a method to improve their functional properties for promising applications in wound healing. Furthermore, a marked increase in percentage of radical scavenging activity of the conjugates makes it an effective antioxidant synthetic strategy. A simple conjugation process was employed to develop bovine serum albumin–dextran conjugates (BSA–dextran) using Maillard reaction. Higher electrophoretic mobility and surface charge in the prepared conjugates was observed in native PAGE electrophoresis and zeta potential. Moreover, the fluorescence, FTIR and Raman analysis of the BSA–dextran conjugates shows significant shift in the fluorescence and wavelength as a consequence of conjugate formation. In vitro wound healing assay showed increased cell proliferation and migration effect. These finding suggests that BSA–dextran conjugate could open up a new practical way for exploration in the area of wound healing.
