{Abstract}: The effectiveness of polypropylene (PP) mesh is often compromised by severe inflammation. Engineering anti-inflammatory coatings has significant implications for PP mesh to repair unwanted hernias. Here, we presented a facile strategy to develop an anti-fouling coating consisting of zwitterionic poly(carboxybetaine methacrylate) (PCBMA), which could prohibit protein adsorption to endow PP mesh with anti-inflammatory efficacy. The incorporation of PCBMA coating had little impact on the raw features of PP mesh. While the modified mesh PCBMA-PP possessed noticeable hydrophilicity increase and surface charge reduction. The excellent lubricity and surface stability enabled PCBMA-PP to exhibit superior anti-fouling capacity, thus efficiently inhibiting the adsorption of proteins. In vivo experiments showed that incorporating the PCBMA layer could provide PP meshes with outstanding anti-inflammatory effects and tissue compatibility for repairing hernias.
