摘要：Thrombogenic reaction, aggressive smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation, and sluggish endothelial cell (EC) migration onto bioinert metal vascular stents make poststenting reendothelialization a dilemma. Here, we report an easy to perform, biomimetic surface engineering strategy for multiple functionalization of metal vascular stents. We first design and graft a clickable mussel-inspired peptide onto the stent surface via mussel-inspired adhesion. Then, two vasoactive moieties [i.e., the nitric-oxide (NO)-generating organoselenium (SeCA) and the endothelial progenitor cell (EPC)-targeting peptide (TPS)] are clicked onto the grafted surfaces via bioorthogonal conjugation. We optimize the blood and vascular cell compatibilities of the grafted surfaces through changing the SeCA/TPS feeding ratios. At the optimal ratio of 2:2, the surface-engineered stents demonstrate superior inhibition of thrombosis and SMC migration and proliferation, promotion of EPC recruitment, adhesion, and proliferation, as well as prevention of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Overall, our biomimetic surface engineering strategy represents a promising solution to address clinical complications of cardiovascular stents and other blood-contacting metal materials.
