Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A new hydrogel made of crosslinked glycosaminoglycans, particularly crosslinked hyaluronic acid, chondroitin or chondroitin sulfate, having reversible linkages using boronic acid or boroxole derivatives leading to new benefits. Glycosaminoglycans that are crosslinked via an alkoxyboronate ester anion formed between a diol portion of a diol-functional moiety grafted to a first glycosaminoglycan and a boronate hemiester grafted to a second glycosaminoglycan.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Crosslinked glycosaminoglycans, wherein said glycosaminoglycans are crosslinked via an alkoxyboronate ester anion formed between a diol portion of a diol-functional moiety grafted to a first glycosaminoglycan and a boronate hemiester grafted to a second glycosaminoglycan, said glycosaminoglycans having a structure of Formula (I) wherein the boronate hemiester is selected from: wherein the boronate hemiester is grafted to said second glycosaminoglycan by the —NH 2 group of the boronate hemiester and forms an amide with a backbone carboxylate group of said second glycosaminoglycan, each GAG is hyaluronic acid and, diol functional moiety is selected from maltose, fructose, lactose and sorbitol. 2. Crosslinked glycosaminoglycans according to claim 1 , said crosslinked glycosaminoglycans having a structure of Formula (II) 3. A method of crosslinking a first glycosaminoglycan grafted with a diol-functional moiety having a diol portion and a second glycosaminoglycan grafted with a boronate hemiester, comprising crosslinking said first glycosaminoglycan with said second glycosaminoglycan by forming an alkoxyboronate ester anion linkage between the boronate hemiester of said second glycosaminoglycan and the diol portion of said diol-functional moiety of said first glycosaminoglycan, whereby the crosslinked glycosaminoglycans according to claim 1 are obtained. 4. Polymer composition comprising crosslinked glycosaminoglycans according to claim 1 and an aqueous buffer.
