1. Curcumin is a naturally occurring poly-phenolic compound with a broad range of favorable biological functions including anti-cancer, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. The low bioavailability and in vivo stability of curcumin require the development of suitable carrier vehicles to deliver the molecule in a sustained manner at therapeutic levels. 2. We investigated the feasibility and potential of poly(caprolactone) (PCL) nanofibers as a delivery vehicle for curcumin for wound healing applications. By optimizing the electrospinning parameters, bead-free curcumin loaded PCL nanofibers were developed. 3. The fibers showed sustained release of curcumin for 72 h and could be made to deliver a dosage much lower than the reported cytotoxic concentration while remaining bioactive. Human foreskin fibroblast cells (HFF-1) showed more than 70% viability on curcumin loaded nanofibers. The antioxidant activity of curcumin loaded nanofibers was demonstrated using an ORAC assay and by the ability of the fibers to maintain the viability of HFF-1 cells on the fibers under a condition of oxidative stress. The curcumin loaded nanofibers also reduced inflammatory induction as evidenced by low levels of IL-6 release from mouse monocyte-macrophages seeded on the fibers following stimulation by E.coli-derived lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The in vivo wound healing capability of the curcumin loaded PCL nanofibers was demonstrated by an increased rate of wound closure in a streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic mice model. 4. These results demonstrate that curcumin loaded PCL nanofiber matrix is bioactive and has potential as a wound dressing with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
