A wound dressing is one of the essential approaches for preventing further harm to cutaneous wounds as well as promoting wound healing. Therefore, to achieve ideal wound healing, the development of advanced dressing materials is necessary. Recently, we revealed that a novel megamolecular polysaccharide, sacran, has potential properties as a biomaterial in a physically cross-linked hydrogel film (HGF) for wound dressing application. In this study, to enhance the wound-healing properties of sacran hydrogel film (Sac-HGF) further, we fabricated and characterized novel Sac-HGFs containing cyclodextrins (CyDs). The sacran/α-CyD film (Sac/α-CyD-HGF) and sacran/γ-CyD HGF (Sac/γ-CyD-HGF), but not sacran/β-CyD HGF (Sac/β-CyD-HGF), were well prepared without surface roughness. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the Sac/γ-CyD-HGFs showed a totally amorphous state compared to that shown by Sac/α-CyD-HGFs. Furthermore, the addition of γ-CyD to Sac-HGFs significantly increased the swelling ratio, porosity, and moisture content of the HGFs, compared to those of the Sac-HGF without CyDs. The Sac/γ-CyD-HGFs were not cytotoxic against NIH3T3 cells, a murine fibroblast cell line. Notably, the Sac/γ-CyD-HGFs significantly improved wound healing in mice, compared to that achieved with the Sac-HGF without γ-CyD. These results suggest that γ-CyD has the potential to promote the wound healing ability of Sac-HGF.
