Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) was reported to promote angiogenesis. Electrospun nanofibers lead to idea wound dressing substrates. Here we report a convenient and novel method to produce VIP loaded microspheres in polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibrous membrane without complicated processes. We first coated mussel-inspired dopamine (DA) to nanofibers, then used strong adhesive DA to absorb the functional peptide. PCL membrane was then immersed into acetone to generate microspheres with VIP loading. We employed high pressure liquid chromatography to record encapsulation efficiency of (31.8 ± 2.2)% and loading capacity of (1.71 ± 0.16)%. The release profile of VIP from nanosheets showed a prolonged release. The results of laser scanning confocal microscope, scanning electron microscope and cell counting kit-8 proliferation assays showed that cell adhesion and proliferation were promoted. In order to verify the efficacy on wound healing, in vivo implantation was applied in the full-thickness defect wounds of BALB/c mice. Results showed that the wound healing was significantly promoted via favoring the growth of granulation tissue and angiogenesis. However, we found wound re-epithelialization was not significantly improved. The resulting VIP-DA-coated PCL (PCL-DA-VIP) nanosheets with spatiotemporal delivery of VIP could be a potential application in wound treatment and vascular tissue engineering.
