    Abstract:
    Self-healing performance plays an important role in the in situ microinvasive injection of hydrogels, which can reduce sudden drug release and prolong the service life of hydrogels. In this paper, a multifunctional injectable and self-healing hydrogel for wound healing was developed. Chitosan (CS) was modified with TA to achieve potential adhesion, anti-inflammatory properties, and slower degradation rate. The hydrogel was formed by Schiff base reaction based on amino groups in CS and aldehyde groups in oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA). The gel formation process was quick and convenient in mild conditions without extra initiators. Due to the dynamically reversible covalent bonds, the hydrogel could self-heal within 2 min after injection. It also had good biocompatibility and hemostatic performance. With the addition of TA, the hydrogel acquired anti-inflammatory properties and promoted cell growth, effectively accelerating the wound-healing process in vivo. The CS-TA/OHA hydrogel is expected to be used for skin repair.
