Abstract
We report the successful preparation and characterization of chitosan-Zn complex (ChiZn) in the form of films, intended to enhance the biological performance of chitosan by the presence of Zn as antibacterial agent and biologically active ion. The influence of Zn chelation on morphology and structure of chitosan was assessed by scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. The biodegradability study of ChiZn showed a sustained release of Zn up to 2 mg/mL. No toxic response was observed toward stromal cell line ST-2 in indirect contact with the ChiZn films. The dissolution product of ChiZn showed improved wound closure (88% closure) compared to the positive control group (70% closure). Moreover, ChiZn exhibited antibacterial activity against S. aureus together with a slight increase (~30%) in the secretion of VEGF and moderate decrease in nitric oxide evolution. Our findings indicate that ChiZn could be used as a safe and effective wound healing agent.

Multifunctional hydrogels for wound dressings using xanthan gum and polyacrylamide. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 217:944-955. [PMID: 35908675 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.07.181] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2022] [Revised: 07/08/2022] [Accepted: 07/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Developing advanced dressings that integrate multiple functions is one of the major challenges in current clinical wound treatment. In this study, Xanthan gum (XG) and polyacrylamide (PAAm) materials were used to prepare hydrogel dressings by one-pot method. With the combination of the PAAm network and the XG network, the PAAm-XG hydrogels showed the tensile strength of 0.36 MPa and the stretchability as large as 2078 %. The prepared PAAm-XG hydrogels had excellent water uptake efficiency with the swelling ratio of 1200 %. Besides, the developed dressings possessed outstanding biocompatibility, universal adhesion and self-healing ability. More importantly, the PAAm-XG hydrogels can be successfully loaded with Cefixime and human recombinant epidermal growth factor, and these loaded hydrogels released these bioactive molecules in sustained ways. As a result, both E. coli and S. aureus bacteria were inactivated after contacting with the Cefixime-loaded hydrogels for 24 h. Furthermore, in vivo data demonstrated that the PAAm-XG hydrogel dressings significantly accelerated the wound healing in a mouse model. All of these indicate that the multifunctional PAAm-XG hydrogels are promising candidates for wound treatment.

Abstract
Uncontrollable hemorrhage and subsequent wound infection are severe threats to life, especially for the deep noncompressible massive bleeding. However, traditional hemostatic materials are ineffective for extreme bleeding and subsequent wound infection. Here, we prepared an injectable shape memory hydroxyethyl cellulose/soy protein isolate based composite sponge (EHSS) for rapid noncompressible hemorrhage and prevention of wound infection. The nano silver (AgNPs)-loaded shape memory sponge (EHP@Ag) was fabricated by mussel-inspired polydopamine coating EHSS sponge, then reducing and immobilizing AgNPs in situ. The EHP@Ag sponges showed rapid blood-triggered shape recovery speed, which is beneficial for administering noncompressible hemorrhage. The results of the hemostatic experiment in vivo demonstrated that EHP@Ag sponge exhibited a desirable hemostasis effect (hemostasis time: 22.75 ± 3.86 s, blood loss: 285.25 ± 24.93 mg) compared to the commercial gelatin sponge (hemostasis time: 49.25 ± 3.30 s, blood loss: 755.50 ± 24.45 mg). Meanwhile, the EHP@Ag sponge has an efficient antibacterial property. Furthermore, the antibacterial experiment in vivo showed that the EHP@Ag sponges could kill bacteria effectively and reduce the bacteria-induced inflammatory response. In summary, the shape memory sponges can quickly control bleeding and avoid bacterial infection, which shows great potential for clinical application as a multifunctional hemostatic agent.

Abstract
Asymmetrical dressings, which are composed of a compact top layer and a porous bottom layer, are commonly used to mimic the characteristics and structure of the epidermis and dermis layers, and overcome the flaws of traditional dressings such as wound dryness and bacterial penetration. Herein, a bio-inspired double-layer asymmetric wettable wound dressing was prepared by low-temperature 3D printing coupled with electrospinning technology. The hydrophobic top layer of Poly(caprolactone)(PCL) film produced by electrospinning was used to simulate the compact and air-permeable epidermis. The hydrophilic bottom layer of the dressing, a scaffold composed of chitosan and copper ions doped Laponite (Cu@CS-Lap), was used to kill bacteria and speed up wound healing. Additionally, the composite dressings also showed excellent cytocompatibility and antibacterial properties in vitro experiments. The human umbilical vein endothelial cells' (HUVECs') migratory area of Cu-doped group increased by about 48.19% compared to the control group, as revealed by the results of the cell scratch experiment. Furthermore, in vivo experiments in rats showed that wound closure at the 0.5Cu@CS5-PCL dressing reached 98.24% after 12 days, indicating the enormous potential of asymmetric double-layer dressings in boosting wound healing.

Abstract
Owing to the noticeable increase in the number of patients with impaired wound healing capabilities, developing bioactive wound dressings with supportive physicomechanical and biological properties for clinical wound management has attracted much more attention nowadays. In this regard, engineered dressings with angiogenesis potential are vital for accelerated tissue regeneration. In the current study, nanoniosomal deferoxamine (DFO)-loaded transparent films of egg white-poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA/EW/ND) were successfully fabricated at three different PVA/EW ratios (1:0, 1:1, and 1:1.5 wt/wt %) through the thin film hydration and solvent casting methods. The developed films' characterizations were carried out using scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis, uniaxial tensile strength, water uptake, water vapor transmission rate, in vitro degradation, and drug release. The results demonstrated that the various weight ratios of PVA/EW have a significant effect on the microscopic morphology, equilibrium swelling, degradation, and mechanical properties of the films. The drug release profile exhibited a sustained release of DFO with controlled burst-lag phases resembling the Korsmeyer-Peppas pattern. The cytotoxicity and adhesion analysis using human dermal fibroblasts displays the biocompatibility of the developed PVA/EW/ND films and the formation of cellular colonies on the surface. The in vitro angiogenic capability of the developed films evaluated by the scratch wound assay and microbead-assisted tube formation study showed a significant increase in the rate of migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and in the number of tube-like structures. Therefore, the achieved results suggest that the presented PVA/EW/ND film has promising potential for effective wound healing applications.

Abstract
A new azobenzene-based symmetric amphiphile was synthesized and characterized using 1H NMR spectroscopy. Its self-assembly behavior as well as photo-responsive behavior in its solution and gel states were investigated. Such a compound can self-assemble into fiber mesophases in water solvent. After irradiation of the gels with UV light, the trans isomer of the compound rapidly photoisomerized to the cis isomer, which resulted in a rapid destruction of the gel. High temperature also caused a rapid drop in viscosity. To verify the antimicrobial activity of the hydrogel, live and death assays of human fibroblasts L929 properties were used for in vitro cell viability studies. The compound was converted to the terminal tertiary amine in a quaternary ammonium salt molecule by using hydrochloric acid. This azobenzene quaternary ammonium salt has a relatively better antimicrobial effect biocidal activity that was demonstrated when challenged against Escherichia coli on in vitro conditions.

Abstract
Bionic self-assembly hydrogel derived by peptide as an effective biomedical hemostatic agent has always gained great attention. However, developing hydrogels with eminent-biosecurity, rapidly hemostatic and bactericidal function remains a critical challenge. Hence, we designed an injectable hydrogel with hemostatic and bactericidal function based on Bionic Self-Assembling Peptide (BSAP) in this study. BSAP was formed with two functionalized peptides containing (RADA)4 motif and possessed the ability to self-assemble into nanofibers. As expected, BSAP could rapidly co-assemble into hydrogel network structure in situ driven by Ca2+. The hydrogel with a concentration of 5% showed a superior microporous structure and excellent shear thinning characteristics, as well as injectability. Moreover, in the foot trauma model and tail amputation model, the fabricated hydrogel exhibited a lower blood clotting index and dramatically reduced blood clotting time and bleeding volume. Remarkably, the hydrogel reduced inflammatory responses by blocking bacterial infection, promoting wound healing. Finally, the hydrogel is highly hemocompatible and has no cytotoxicity. Overall, this work provides a strategy for developing a high-biosecurity hydrogel with hemostatic and antibacterial properties, which will allow for the clinical application of BSAP.

Abstract
Background Nowadays, a wide range of wound dressings is already commercially available. The selection of the dressing is of paramount importance as inappropriate wound management and dressing selection can delay the wound healing process. Not only can this be distressing for the patient, but it can also contribute to complications such as maceration and subsequent infection. Many researchers are targeting the design of dressings with superior properties over existing commercial dressings. However, reported results in the state-of-the-art are rarely benchmarked against commercial dressings. The aim of this study was to determine several characteristics of a large variety of the most frequently used commercial wound dressings, providing an overview for both practitioners and researchers. Methods For this comparative study, 11 frequently used commercial wound dressings were selected, representing the different types. The morphology was studied using scanning electron microscopy. The dressings were characterized in terms of swelling capacity (water, phosphate buffered saline and simulated wound fluid), moisture vapour transmission rate (MVTR) and moisture uptake capacity (via dynamic vapour sorption) as well as mechanical properties using tensile testing and texturometry. Results The selected dressings showed distinctive morphological differences (fibrous, porous and/or gel) which was reflected in the different properties. Indeed, the swelling capacities ranged between 1.5 and 23.2 g/g (water), 2.1 and 17.6 g/g (phosphate buffered saline) or 2.9 and 20.8 g/g (simulated wound fluid). The swelling capacity of the dressings in water increased even further upon freeze-drying, due to the formation of pores. The MVTR values varied between 40 and 930 g/m2/24 h. The maximal moisture uptake capacity varied between 5.8% and 105.7% at 95% relative humidity. Some commercial dressings exhibited a superior mechanical strength, due to either being hydrophobic or multi-layered. Conclusions The present work not only offers insight into a valuable toolbox of suitable wound dressing characterization techniques, but also provides an extensive landscaping of commercial dressings along with their physico-chemical properties, obtained through reproducible experimental protocols. Furthermore, it ensures appropriate benchmark values for commercial dressings in all forthcoming studies and could aid researchers with the development of novel modern wound dressings. The tested dressings either exhibited a high strength or a high swelling capacity, suggesting that there is still a strong potential in the wound dressings market for dressings that possess both.

Abstract
In this study, eco-friendly and transparent starch-based/polyvinyl alcohol/citric acid composite films are evaluated for their efficacy as wound dressing materials. The starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) materials with added citric acid (0.46-1.83 wt%) and glycerol were made and handled based on the modified casting method. This new formulation decreases the amount of PVA used in the conventional preparation method. Citric acid ensures an appropriate antibacterial environment for wound-dressing materials. The mechanical, chemical, and surface morphological properties of such films were assessed and analyzed by tensile strength tests, UV-Vis spectrometry, swelling index, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, the water vapor transmission (WVT) quantity was measured for an ideal wound-healing process to investigate an optimal moisture environment around the wound bed. Moreover, the pH level of the dressings was measured to examine the possibility of bacterial growth around these starch-based films. Additionally, the films' in-vitro antibacterial activities were studied against the two most common Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus). The new starch-based dressings demonstrated suitable degradation, antibacterial activity, fluid absorption, and adequate mechanical strength, representing wound-dressing materials' vital features.

Abstract
The growing demand for postbariatric body-contouring surgery after massive weight loss goes hand-in-hand with an increase in wound complications. Consequently, surgical reoperation or conservative management is necessary and represents a difficult challenge to healthcare professionals. Moreover, it is well known that postbariatric patients present aberrant wound healing due to multifactorial causes, such as preoperative illness, nutritional deficiencies, and vascular disease. To treat such complex wounds, several methods have been recommended, such as the use of negative pressure wound therapy, tissue-engineered skin substitutes, and collagen-based wound dressings. The case presented here is of a patient with deep wound dehiscence of the inner left thigh, 1 week after a medial thigh lift procedure, successfully managed with Vergenix Flowable Gel, a human recombinant type I collagen produced in plants. After 2 weeks of treatment, wound dehiscence was replaced with granulation tissue, and after 4 weeks, the patient was completely healed, with an acceptable aesthetic outcome of the surgical scar.

Abstract
Poor healing of cutaneous wounds is a common medical problem in the field of traumatology. Due to the intricate pathophysiological processes of wound healing, the use of conventional treatment methods, such as chemical molecule drugs and traditional dressings, have been unable to achieve satisfactory outcomes. Within recent years, explicit evidence suggests that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have great therapeutic potentials on skin wound healing and regeneration. However, the direct application of MSCs still faces many challenges and difficulties. Intriguingly, exosomes as cell-secreted granular vesicles with a lipid bilayer membrane structure and containing specific components from the source cells may emerge to be excellent substitutes for MSCs. Exosomes derived from MSCs (MSC-exosomes) have been demonstrated to be beneficial for cutaneous wound healing and accelerate the process through a variety of mechanisms. These mechanisms include alleviating inflammation, promoting vascularization, and promoting proliferation and migration of epithelial cells and fibroblasts. Therefore, the application of MSC-exosomes may be a promising alternative to cell therapy in the treatment of cutaneous wounds and could promote wound healing through multiple mechanisms simultaneously. This review will provide an overview of the role and the mechanisms of MSC-derived exosomes in cutaneous wound healing, and elaborate the potentials and future perspectives of MSC-exosomes application in clinical practice.

Abstract
Tremendous attention has been given to hydrogels due to their mechanical and physical properties. Hydrogels are promising biomaterials due to their high biocompatibility. Magnetic hydrogels, which are based on hydrogel incorporated magnetic nanoparticles, have been proposed in biomedical applications. The advantages of magnetic hydrogels are that they can easily respond to externally applied magnetic fields and prevent the leakage of magnetic nanoparticles in the surrounding area. Herein, a prototype hybrid stent of magnetic hydrogel was fabricated, characterized, and evaluated for magnetic hyperthermia treatment. First, magnetic hydrogel was produced by a solution of alginate with magnetic nanoparticles in a bath of calcium chloride (5-15 mg mL-1) in order to achieve the external gelation and optimize the heating rate. The increased concentration (1-8 mg mL-1) of magnetic nanoparticles inside the hydrogel resulted in almost zero leakage of iron oxide nanoparticles after 15 days, guaranteeing that they can be used safely in biomedical applications. Thus, magnetic hybrid stents, which are based on the magnetic hydrogels, were developed in a simple way and were evaluated both in an agarose phantom model and in an ex vivo tissue sample at 30 mT and 765 kHz magnetic hyperthermia conditions to examine the heating efficiency. In both cases, hyperthermia results indicate excellent heat generation from the hybrid stent and facile temperature control via tuning magnetic nanoparticle concentration (2-8 mg mL-1). This study can be a promising method that promotes spatially thermal distribution in cancer treatment or restenosis treatment of hollow organs.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex process that is critical in restoring the skin's barrier function. This process can be interrupted by numerous diseases resulting in chronic wounds that represent a major medical burden. Such wounds fail to follow the stages of healing and are often complicated by a pro‐inflammatory milieu attributed to increased proteinases, hypoxia, and bacterial accumulation. The comprehensive treatment of chronic wounds is still regarded as a significant unmet medical need due to the complex symptoms caused by the metabolic disorder of the wound microenvironment. As a result, several advanced medical devices, such as wound dressings, wearable wound monitors, negative pressure wound therapy devices, and surgical sutures, have been developed to correct the chronic wound environment and achieve skin tissue regeneration. Most medical devices encompass a wide range of products containing natural (e.g., chitosan, keratin, casein, collagen, hyaluronic acid, alginate, and silk fibroin) and synthetic (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, poly[lactic‐co‐glycolic acid], polycaprolactone, polylactic acid) polymers, as well as bioactive molecules (e.g., chemical drugs, silver, growth factors, stem cells, and plant compounds). This review addresses these medical devices with a focus on biomaterials and applications, aiming to deliver a critical theoretical reference for further research on chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Skin tissue wound healing proceeds through four major stages, including hematoma formation, inflammation, and neo-tissue formation, and culminates with tissue remodeling. These four steps significantly overlap with each other and are aided by various factors such as cells, cytokines (both anti- and pro-inflammatory), and growth factors that aid in the neo-tissue formation. In all these stages, advanced biomaterials provide several functional advantages, such as removing wound exudates, providing cover, transporting oxygen to the wound site, and preventing infection from microbes. In addition, advanced biomaterials serve as vehicles to carry proteins/drug molecules/growth factors and/or antimicrobial agents to the target wound site. In this review, we report recent advancements in biomaterials-based regenerative strategies that augment the skin tissue wound healing process. In conjunction with other medical sciences, designing nanoengineered biomaterials is gaining significant attention for providing numerous functionalities to trigger wound repair. In this regard, we highlight the advent of nanomaterial-based constructs for wound healing, especially those that are being evaluated in clinical settings. Herein, we also emphasize the competence and versatility of the three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technique for advanced wound management. Finally, we discuss the challenges and clinical perspective of various biomaterial-based wound dressings, along with prospective future directions. With regenerative strategies that utilize a cocktail of cell sources, antimicrobial agents, drugs, and/or growth factors, it is expected that significant patient-specific strategies will be developed in the near future, resulting in complete wound healing with no scar tissue formation.

An injectable photo-cross-linking silk hydrogel system augments diabetic wound healing in orthopaedic surgery through spatiotemporal immunomodulation. J Nanobiotechnology 2022; 20:232. [PMID: 35568914 PMCID: PMC9107711 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-022-01414-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2022] [Accepted: 04/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The complicated hyperglycaemic and chronic inflammation of diabetic wounds in orthopaedic surgery leads to dysregulated immune cell function and potential infection risk. Immune interventions in diabetic wounds face a possible contradiction between simultaneous establishment of the pro-inflammatory microenvironment in response to potential bacterial invasion and the anti-inflammatory microenvironment required for tissue repair. To study this contradiction and accelerate diabetic-wound healing, we developed a photocurable methacryloxylated silk fibroin hydrogel (Sil-MA) system, co-encapsulated with metformin-loaded mesoporous silica microspheres (MET@MSNs) and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). RESULTS The hydrogel system (M@M-Ag-Sil-MA) enhanced diabetic-wound healing via spatiotemporal immunomodulation. Sil-MA imparts a hydrogel system with rapid in situ Ultra-Violet-photocurable capability and allows preliminary controlled release of Ag NPs, which can inhibit bacterial aggregation and create a stable, sterile microenvironment. The results confirmed the involvement of Met in the immunomodulatory effects following spatiotemporal dual-controlled release via the mesoporous silica and Sil-MA. Hysteresis-released from Met shifts the M1 phenotype of macrophages in regions of diabetic trauma to an anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype. Simultaneously, the M@M-Ag-Sil-MA system inhibited the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and decreased the release of neutrophil elastase, myeloperoxidase, and NETs-induced pro-inflammatory factors. As a result of modulating the immune microenvironmental, the M@M-Ag-Sil-MA system promoted fibroblast migration and endothelial cell angiogenesis in vivo, with verification of enhanced diabetic-wound healing accompanied with the spatiotemporal immunoregulation of macrophages and NETs in a diabetic mouse model. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrated that the M@M-Ag-Sil-MA hydrogel system resolved the immune contradiction in diabetic wounds through spatiotemporal immunomodulation of macrophages and NETs, suggesting its potential as a promising engineered nano-dressing for the treatment of diabetic wounds in orthopaedic surgery.

Abstract
Gelatin (G) cross-linked with oxidized pectin (OP) was studied as a potential scaffold material for tissue engineering. The effect of oxidation on the chemical properties of pectin was investigated by determining the carbonyl and carboxyl amounts. The OP treatment led to a significant decrease of all values (Mn, Mw, [η] and Rh) determined by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) coupled on line with multiangle light scattering and viscometer detectors. Cross-linking parameters were elucidated by FTIR and TNBS assay. In general, the degree of crosslinking increased with the oxidation of pectin. It was found that the presence of the crosslinking agents caused a reduction in swelling and in the gelatin release which was determined by the BCA kit assay. From the hemolysis test, the membrane of red blood cells was not disrupted by the contact of films and the rate of release of hemoglobin was lower than 5%. The coagulation properties were evaluated by the dynamic blood clotting test. The G/OP hydrogels manifested a good activity of wound healing in the albino rats' model. Moreover, the films did not produce any unwilling symptoms. So, it was concluded that studied films have the potentiality to be used as wound healing biomaterials.

Abstract
Wound infection caused by Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a great challenge which has caused significant burden and economic loss to the medical system. NZ2114, a plectasin-derived peptide, is an antibacterial agent for preventing and treating S. aureus infection, especially for methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) infection. Here, three-dimensional reticulated antimicrobial peptide (AMP) NZ2114 hydrogels were developed based on hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) and sodium alginate (SA); they displayed sustained and stable release properties (97.88 ± 1.79% and 91.1 ± 10.52% release rate in 72 h, respectively) and good short-term cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility. But the HPC-NZ2114 hydrogel had a smaller pore size (diameter 0.832 ± 0.420 μm vs. 3.912 ± 2.881 μm) and better mechanical properties than that of the SA-NZ2114 hydrogel. HPC/SA-NZ2114 hydrogels possess efficient antimicrobial activity in vitro and in vivo. In a full-thickness skin defect model, the wound closure of the 1.024 mg/g HPC-NZ2114 hydrogel group was superior to those of the SA-NZ2114 hydrogel and antibiotic groups on day 7. The HPC-NZ2114 hydrogel accelerated wound healing by reducing inflammation and promoting the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), endothelial growth factor (EGF) and angiogenesis (CD31) through histological and immunohistochemistry evaluation. These data indicated that the HPC-NZ2114 hydrogel is an excellent candidate for S. aureus infection wound dressing. KEY POINTS: •NZ2114 hydrogels showed potential in vitro bactericidal activity against S. aureus •NZ2114 hydrogels could release continuously for 72 h and had good biocompatibility •NZ2114 hydrogels could effectively promote S. aureus-infected wound healing.

Abstract
More than 422 million people worldwide suffered from diabetes mellitus (DM) in 2021. Diabetic foot is one the most critical complications resultant of DM. Foot ulceration and infection are frequently arisen, which are associated with changes in the mechanical properties of the plantar soft tissues, peripheral arterial disease, and sensory neuropathy. Diabetic insoles are currently the mainstay in reducing the risk of foot ulcers by reducing the magnitude of the pressure on the plantar Here, we propose a novel pressure relieving heel pad based on a circular auxetic re-entrant honeycomb structure by using three-dimensional (3D) printing technology to minimize the pressure on the heel, thus reducing the occurrence of foot ulcers. Finite element models (FEMs) are developed to evaluate the structural changes of the developed circular auxetic structure upon exertion of compressive forces. Moreover, the effects of the internal angle of the re-entrant structure on the peak contact force and the mean pressure acting on the heel as well as the contact area between the heel and the pads are investigated through a finite element analysis (FEA). Based on the result from the validated FEMs, the proposed heel pad with an auxetic structure demonstrates a distinct reduction in the peak contact force (∼10%) and the mean pressure (∼14%) in comparison to a conventional diabetic insole (PU foam). The characterized result of the designed circular auxetic structure not only provides new insights into diabetic foot protection, but also the design and development of various impact resistance products.

Abstract
Dealing with wound related pain is an integral part of treatment. Systemic administration of analgesic and anesthetic agents is a common solution for providing pain relief to patients but comes at a risk of severe side effects as well as addiction. To overcome these issues, research efforts were madeto provide a platform for local controlled release of pain killers. We have developed a bilayer soy protein-based wound dressing for the controlled local release of bupivacaine to the wound site. The combination of a dense and a porous layer provides a platform for cell growth and proliferation as well as physical protection to the wound site. The current study focuses on the in vitro bupivacaine release profile from the dressing and the corresponding in vivo results of pain levels in a second-degree burn model on rats. The Rat Grimace Scale method and the Von Frey filaments method were used to quantify both, spontaneous pain and mechanically induced pain. A high burst release of 61.8 ± 1.9% of the loaded drug was obtained during the initial hour, followed by a slower release rate during the following day. The animal trials show that the RGS scores of the bupivacaine-treated group were significantly lower than these of the untreated group, proving a decrease of 51-68% in pain levels during days 1-3 after burn. Hence, successful pain reduction of spontaneous pain as well as mechanically induced pain, for at least three days after burn was achieved. It is concluded that our novel bupivacaine eluting soy protein wound dressings are a promising new concept in the field of local controlled drug release for pain management.

Abstract
Early explorations of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine concepts commonly utilized simple polyesters such as polyglycolide, polylactide, and their copolymers as scaffolds. These biomaterials were deemed clinically acceptable, readily accessible, and provided processability and a generally known biological response. With experience and refinement of approaches, greater control of material properties and integrated bioactivity has received emphasis and a broadened palette of synthetic biomaterials has been employed. Biodegradable polyurethanes (PUs) have emerged as an attractive option for synthetic scaffolds in a variety of tissue applications because of their flexibility in molecular design and ability to fulfill mechanical property objectives, particularly in soft tissue applications. Biodegradable PUs are highly customizable based on their composition and processability to impart tailored mechanical and degradation behavior. Additionally, bioactive agents can be readily incorporated into these scaffolds to drive a desired biological response. Enthusiasm for biodegradable PU scaffolds has soared in recent years, leading to rapid growth in the literature documenting novel PU chemistries, scaffold designs, mechanical properties, and aspects of biocompatibility. Despite the enthusiasm in the field, there are still few examples of biodegradable PU scaffolds that have achieved regulatory approval and routine clinical use. However, there is a growing literature where biodegradable PU scaffolds are being specifically developed for a wide range of pathologies and where relevant pre-clinical models are being employed. The purpose of this review is first to highlight examples of clinically used biodegradable PU scaffolds, and then to summarize the growing body of reports on pre-clinical applications of biodegradable PU scaffolds.

[PMID: 35489675 DOI: 10.1016/j.drudis.2022.04.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 04/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Biofilms are sessile communities of microorganisms, mainly bacteria, that grow on biotic and abiotic surfaces. These microorganisms are embedded within an extracellular polymeric substance that provides enhanced protection from antimicrobials. Chronic wounds provide an ideal habitat for biofilm formation. Bacteria can easily attach to wound debris and can infect the wound due to an impaired host immune response. This review highlights the mechanism of biofilm formation and the role of biofilms in the pathophysiology of chronic wounds. Our major focus is on various formulation strategies and delivery systems that are employed to eradicate or disperse biofilms, thereby effectively managing acute and chronic wounds. We also discuss clinical research that has studied or is studying the treatment of biofilm-infected chronic wounds. Teaser: Innovative pharmaceutical strategies such as hydrogels, nanofibers, films and various nanoscale materials can provide promising approaches for the treatment of biofilm-mediated chronic wound infections, offering the potential to improve therapeutic outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetic wound healing remains a global challenge in the clinic and in research. However, the current medical dressings are difficult to meet the demands. The primary goal of this study was to fabricate a functional hydrogel wound dressing that can provide an appropriate microenvironment and supplementation with growth factors to promote skin regeneration and functional restoration in diabetic wounds. MATERIALS AND METHODS Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) were bound to the porcine small intestinal submucosa-based hydrogel material through peptides (SC-Ps-sEVs) to increase the content and achieve a sustained release. NIH3T3 cell was used to evaluate the biocompatibility and the promoting proliferation, migration and adhesion abilities of the SC-Ps-sEVs. EA.hy926 cell was used to evaluate the stimulating angiogenesis of SC-Ps-sEVs. The diabetic wound model was used to investigate the function/role of SC-Ps-sEVs hydrogel in promoting wound healing. RESULTS A functional hydrogel wound dressing with good mechanical properties, excellent biocompatibility and superior stimulating angiogenesis capacity was designed and facilely fabricated, which could effectively enable full-thickness skin wounds healing in diabetic rat model. CONCLUSIONS This work led to the development of SIS, which shows an unprecedented combination of mechanical, biological and wound healing properties. This functional hydrogel wound dressing may find broad utility in the field of regenerative medicine and may be similarly useful in the treatment of wounds in epithelial tissues, such as the intestine, lung and liver.

Abstract
Thermal energy is an essential and useful resource to humans in modern society. However, a consequence of using heat carelessly is burns. Burn injuries have various causes, such as exposure to flame, radiation, electrical, and chemical sources. In this study, we reviewed the history of burn wound care while focusing on the basic principles of burn management. Through this review, we highlight the need for careful monitoring and customization when treating burn victims at each step of wound care, as their individual needs may differ. We also propose that future research should focus on nanotechnology-based skin grafts, as this is a promising area for further improvement in wound care.

Abstract
This research on a thyroxine/heparin-based cotton wound dressing tests angiogenic and wound healing ability of thyroxine/heparin in a chick chorionic allantoic membrane bioassay and in skin wounds in healthy rats. Commercially available cotton dressings were simply loaded with thyroxine/heparin solutions and coated with wax. Prior to undertaking the animal study, we assessed in vitro release of thyroxine/heparin from coated and uncoated cotton dressings. Both showed more than 85% release of drug over 14 days, though the lesser release was observed in wax-coated thyroxine/heparin dressing as compared to uncoated thyroxine/heparin dressing. Testing of angiogenesis through CAM assay proved good angiogenic potential of heparin and thyroxin, but the thyroxine found more angiogenic than heparin. In animal study, full-thickness skin wounds of 20 mm diameter showed good healing in both heparin and thyroxine-treated groups. But the most striking result was seen in the thyroxine-treated group where thyroxine showed significant difference with heparin-treated group and completely healed the wounds in 23 days. Thus, the study suggest that thyroxine possesses greater angiogenic and wound healing potential than heparin, and the use of thyroxine/heparin-loaded wax-coated cotton dressing could be a cost-effective option for the management of chronic wounds.

Abstract
In this case study, the wound healing process of a patient who had undergone an appendectomy and whose wound was treated with waterproof dressing was analysed, and the coverage of granulation tissue was tracked. This study aimed to re-evaluate the use of waterproof dressing, combined with sodium chloride, on acute wounds in an Indonesian hospital. Data were collected and evaluated through the use of the Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) observation method. A waterproof dressing and sodium chloride (NaCl) were administered once every 2 days to promote wound healing. After three rounds (14 days) of using waterproof dressing, granulation tissue formed over the surface of the wound base. The end result of healing by primary intention was complete return to function, with minimal scarring and loss of skin appendages. Waterproof dressing was considered to be effective and characterised by the formation of 93.2% granulation tissue; epithelialisation was observed covering between 75-100% of the wound area. No complications occurred during the intervention.

Abstract
The prevalence of chronic wounds is increasing due to the population aging and associated pathologies, such as diabetes. These ulcers have an important socio-economic impact. Thus, it is necessary to design new products for their treatment with an adequate cost/effectiveness ratio. Among these products are amorphous hydrogels. Their composition can be manipulated to provide a favorable environment for ulcer healing. The aim of this study was to evaluate a novel multifunctional amorphous hydrogel (EHO-85), containing Olea europaea leaf extract, designed to enhance the wound healing process. For this purpose, its moistening ability, antioxidant capacity, effect on pH in the wound bed of experimental rats, and the effect on wound healing in a murine model of impaired wound healing were assessed. EHO-85 proved to be a remarkable moisturizer and its application in a rat skin wound model showed a significant antioxidant effect, decreasing lipid peroxidation in the wound bed. EHO-85 also decreased the pH of the ulcer bed from day 1. In addition, in mice (BKS. Cg-m +/+ Leprdb) EHO-85 treatment showed superior wound healing rates compared to hydrocolloid dressing. In conclusion, EHO-85 can speed up the closure of hard-to-heal wounds due to its multifunctional properties that are able to modulate the wound microenvironment, mainly through its remarkable effect on reactive oxygen species, pH, and moistening regulation.

Abstract
Multifunctional hydrogel-based wound dressings have been explored for decades due to their huge potential in multifaceted medical intervention to wound healing. However, it is usually not easy to fabricate a single hydrogel with all of the desirable functions at one time. Herein, a bilayer model with an outer layer for hydrogel wound dressing was proposed. The inner layer (Hm-PNn) was a hybrid hydrogel prepared by N-isopropylacrylamide and chitosan-N-2-hydroxypropyl trimethylammonium chloride (HACC), and the outer layer (PVAo-PAmp) was prepared by polyvinyl alcohols and acrylamide. The two hydrogel layers of the bilayer model were covalently connected with excellent interfacial strength by photoinduced electron/energy transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization. The outer layer exposed to the ambient environment exhibited good stretchability and toughness, while the inner-layer hydrogel adhered to the skin exhibited excellent softness, antibacterial activity, thermoresponsivity, and biocompatibility. In particular, the inner layer of a hydrogel demonstrated excellent antibacterial capability toward both Staphylococcus aureus as Gram-positive bacteria and Escherichia coli as Gram-negative bacteria. Cell cytotoxicity showed that the cell viability of all Hm-PNn layer hydrogels exceeds 80%, confirming that the hydrogels bear excellent biocompatibility. In vivo experimental results indicated that the Hm-PNn/PVAo-PAmp bilayer hydrogel has a significant effect on the acceleration of wound healing, which was demonstrated in a full-thickness skin defect model showing improved collagen disposition and granulation tissue thickness. With these results, the established multifunctional bilayer hydrogel exhibits potential as an excellent wound dressing for wound healing applications, especially for open and infected traumas.

Abstract
Traumatic multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections are deadly threat to the public. To combat MDR bacteria, we developed a dual functional pH-sensitive hydrogel based on peptide DP7 (VQWRIRVAVIRK) and oxidized dextran (DP7-ODEX hydrogel). As an antimicrobial peptide, DP7 can synergize with many antibiotics; thus, we loaded ceftazidime into DP7-ODEX hydrogel, which showed an obvious advantage in MDR P. aeruginosa inhibition. Additionally, due to the interaction between aldehyde groups in oxidized dextran and amine groups from wound tissue, the hydrogel could extend on the irregular surface of skin defects and promote epithelial cells adhesion. DP7 could also be used as a wound-healing peptide and accelerate the healing process. We confirmed that the DP7-ODEX hydrogel exerted formidable therapeutic effects in normal or diabetic wound infection model. According to histomorphology analysis we found that DP7 hydrogel also have a scarless wound healing ability. In summary, we developed a hydrogel fabricated by the dual functional peptide DP7 that can kill multidrug-resistant bacteria colonizing the wound bed and boost scarless wound healing.

Abstract
The Surgical procedure of cesarean section (CS) causes a large wound that any delay in its healing could increase the rate of stress, inconvenience, and dissatisfaction among the women who underwent CS procedure about six weeks after childbirth. The present study is trying to evaluate the effect of alginate and gelatin hydrogel composited with nanozinc effective extensibility and compressibility as a wound dressing nursing care after CS. The number of participants was 700 individuals enrolled all who underwent C-sections at Medical College in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University (from September 2017 until September 2020). Patients were divided into two groups of case and control consist of 350 cases. The case group was treated with alginate gelatin hydrogel-nZnO+antibacterial wound dress and the control group was treated with wound healing ordinary creams+antibacterial. Three and four weeks following CS, the healing process of the wound was evaluated using REEDA wound scale. In the current study, there was not any significant difference between the studied case and control group in respect to individual's demographical characteristics such as economic status, educational level, BMI, and age. (P > 0.05). Also, we observed that patients treated with alginate gelatin hydrogel-nZnO would experience a significantly lower score for redness, ecchymosis, edema, and approximation of CS wound in comparison to the control group (P < 0.05). Also, slope analysis showed that the healing process was significantly quicker in patients treated with alginate gelatin hydrogel-nZnO in comparison to the control group. Finally, it was observed that more than 80% of patients did not represent any major sign of CS after three weeks, however, in the control case this issue was estimated at 50.6%. No allergic reaction has been observed. Our results showed that using alginate gelatin hydrogel-nZnO wound dress could be a novel treatment in a nursing care setting to decrease the CS wound complication and increase the healing process without any allergic reaction.

Abstract
A spatiotemporally dynamic therapy (SDT) is proposed as a powerful therapeutic modality that provides spatially dynamic responses of drug-carriers for adapting to the wound microenvironment. Herein, dynamic chitosan-poly (ethylene glycol) (CP) Schiff-base linkages are employed to perform SDT by directly converting a liquid drug Kangfuxin (KFX) into a gel formation. The obtained KFX-CP drug-gel with shape-adaptive property is used to treat a representative oral mucositis (OM) model in a spatiotemporally dynamic manner. The KFX-CP drug-gel creates an instructive microenvironment to regulate signaling biomolecules and endogenous cells behavior, thereby promoting OM healing by the rule of dynamically adjusting shape to fit the irregular OM regions first, and then provides space for tissue regeneration, over KFX potion control and the general hydrogel group of CP hydrogel and KFX-F127. Most interestingly, the regenerated tissue has ordered structure like healthy tissue. Therefore, the SDT provides a new approach for the design of next generation of wound dressing and tissue engineering materials.

Abstract
Fabrication of scaffolds with enhanced mechanical properties and desirable cellular compatibility is critical for numerous tissue engineering applications. This study was aimed at fabrication and characterization of a nanofiber skin substitute composed of collagen (Col)/sodium alginate (SA)/ polyethylene oxide (PEO)/Rhodotorula mucilaginosa sp. GUMS16 produced exopolysaccharides (EPS) were prepared using the biaxial electrospinning technique. This study used collagen extracted from the bovine tendon as a natural scaffold, sodium alginate as an absorber of excess wound fluids, and GUMS16 produced exopolysaccharides as an antioxidant. Collagen was characterized using FTIR and EDS analyses. The cross-linked nanofibers were characterized by SEM, FTIR, tensile, contact-angle, swelling test, MTT, and cell attachment techniques. The average diameter of Col nanofiber was 910 ± 89 nm. The Col and Col-SA/PEO non-woven mats' water contact angle measurement was 41.6o and 56.4o, Col/EPS1%, Col/EPS2%, Col-SA/PEO + EPS1%, and Col-SA/PEO + EPS2% were 61.4o, 58.3o, 38.5o, and 50.6o, respectively. Cell viability of more than 100% was shown in Col-SA/PEO + EPS nanofibers. Also, SEM images of cells on nanofiber scaffolds demonstrated that all nanofibers incorporated with GUMS16-produced EPS have good cell growth and proliferation. The acquired results expressed that the GUMS16-produced EPS can be considered a novel biomacromolecule in electrospun fibers that increase cell viability and proliferation.

Abstract
The current study aimed to develop carbomer based hydrogel dressings, incorporating ethanolic extracts of Rosmarinus officinalis aerial parts, Achillea millefolium and Calendula officinalis flowers. The pharmaceutical properties of the obtained hydrogels, as well as their texture and antimicrobial activity, were further evaluated. Five wound dressing formulations based on carbopol were prepared. The addition of the ethanolic extracts to the formulation slightly lowered the pH of the hydrogels, as expected. The Rosmarinus officinalis aerial parts extract loaded hydrogel proved to be the firmest one. In terms of consistency and viscosity, the behavior of the five hydrogels was relatively similar. Based on the texture analysis, the texture of the hydrogels has been affected to some extent by the addition of the ethanolic extracts, decreasing their consistency, firmness, and adhesiveness. The hydrogel loaded with Rosmarinus officinalis aerial parts extract and the one incorporating the blend of extracts (mixture of the three above-mentioned extracts) proved to have a good antimicrobial activity. The studied hydrogel formulations could serve as a basis for the development of novel wound dressing materials, although more extended in vivo studies would be needed in order to support current results.

Abstract
Whether they are caused by trauma, illness, or surgery, wounds may occur throughout anyone's life. Some injuries' complexity and healing difficulty pose important challenges in the medical field, demanding novel approaches in wound management. A highly researched possibility is applying biomaterials in various forms, ranging from thin protective films, foams, and hydrogels to scaffolds and textiles enriched with drugs and nanoparticles. The synergy of biocompatibility and cell proliferative effects of these materials is reflected in a more rapid wound healing rate and improved structural and functional properties of the newly grown tissue. This paper aims to present the biomaterial dressings and scaffolds suitable for wound management application, reviewing the most recent studies in the field.

Abstract
Wound healing is a highly coordinated process which leads to the repair and regeneration of damaged tissue. Still, numerous diseases such as diabetes, venous insufficiencies or autoimmune diseases could disturb proper wound healing and lead to chronic and non-healing wounds, which are still a great challenge for medicine. For many years, research has been carried out on finding new therapeutics which improve the healing of chronic wounds. One of the most extensively studied active substances that has been widely tested in the treatment of different types of wounds was Substance P (SP). SP is one of the main neuropeptides released by nervous fibers in responses to injury. This review provides a thorough overview of the application of SP in different types of wound models and assesses its efficacy in wound healing.

Abstract
Bacterial-infected wounds are a serious threat to public health. Bacterial invasion can easily delay the wound healing process and even cause more serious damage. Therefore, effective new methods or drugs are needed to treat wounds. Nanozyme is an artificial enzyme that mimics the activity of a natural enzyme, and a substitute for natural enzymes by mimicking the coordination environment of the catalytic site. Due to the numerous excellent properties of nanozymes, the generation of drug-resistant bacteria can be avoided while treating bacterial infection wounds by catalyzing the sterilization mechanism of generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). Notably, there are still some defects in the nanozyme antibacterial agents, and the design direction is to realize the multifunctionalization and intelligence of a single system. In this review, we first discuss the pathophysiology of bacteria infected wound healing, the formation of bacterial infection wounds, and the strategies for treating bacterially infected wounds. In addition, the antibacterial advantages and mechanism of nanozymes for bacteria-infected wounds are also described. Importantly, a series of nanomaterials based on nanozyme synthesis for the treatment of infected wounds are emphasized. Finally, the challenges and prospects of nanozymes for treating bacterial infection wounds are proposed for future research in this field.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the top life-threatening dangers to the human survival, accounting for over 10 million deaths per year. Bioactive glasses have developed dramatically since their discovery 50 years ago, with applications that include therapeutics as well as diagnostics. A new system within the bioactive glass family, mesoporous bioactive glasses (MBGs), has evolved into a multifunctional platform, thanks to MBGs easy-to-functionalize nature and tailorable textural properties-surface area, pore size, and pore volume. Although MBGs have yet to meet their potential in tumor treatment and imaging in practice, recently research has shed light on the distinguished MBGs capabilities as promising theranostic systems for cancer imaging and therapy. This review presents research progress in the field of MBG applications in cancer diagnosis and therapy, including synthesis of MBGs, mechanistic overview of MBGs application in tumor diagnosis and drug monitoring, applications of MBGs in cancer therapy ( particularly, targeted delivery and stimuli-responsive nanoplatforms), and immunological profile of MBG-based nanodevices in reference to the development of novel cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
In our daily plastic surgery practice, we have seen many chronic wounds that need new biotechnology to help and improve wound healing. Stem cells play a crucial role in regenerative medicine. Many pre-clinical researches had reported the beneficial paracrine effects of stem cell therapy for chronic wounds. Cell-friendly scaffolds may provide the protection and three-dimensional space required for adherence of stem cells, thus allowing these stem cells to proliferate and differentiate for treatment purpose. A successful scaffold may enhance the effects of stem cell therapy. In this presented series, the authors attempted to identify the most suitable scaffolds from several commercially available wound dressings that could sustain adipose-derived stromal/progenitor cells (ADSCs) survival. Therefore, we isolated ADSCs containing the green fluorescent protein (GFP) from GFP transgenic rats. The GFP (+) ADSCs and their progenies could be easily observed using a fluorescence microscope. Moreover, we analyzed the cytokines secreted in condition medium (CM) to understand the activities of ADSCs in various dressings. Our results showed that the foam dressings, hydrofiber, chitosan, and alginate plus carboxymethylcellulose were identified as the most suitable dressing materials. Higher concentrations of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were observed 48 h after loading them with GFP (+) ADSCs. Therefore, multiple topical cell therapy using ADSCs can be performed by applying suitable dressing scaffolds without repeated needle injections to deliver the stem cells into the wound bed. Based on their fluorescence property, the GFP (+) ADSCs can also possibly be used for testing biocompatibility of medical materials in the future.

Abstract
The healing of defected skin tissue is a complex process, especially for chronic wounds. Poor healing of these wounds may cause extensive suffering and high cost for patients. Traditional wound dressings are typically designed for a single function and they cannot satisfy all requirements for the whole process of wound healing. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new types of wound dressings with multiple functions for wound healing. In particular, adding an antibacterial function has been shown to be of great benefit during tissue repair. Nano‑silver is widely used in wound treatment because of various advantages, such as its wide antibacterial spectrum and lower drug resistance. Therefore, wound dressings loaded with nano‑silver have attracted widespread attention in wound healing. Naturally derived polysaccharides hold great potential as wound dressings, because of their abundant availability, low prices and good biocompatibility. In this review, nano‑silver functionalized polysaccharide-based wound dressings are systematically reviewed, including their preparation methods, antibacterial performances and classification of nano‑silver wound dressings. Moreover, the toxicity of nano‑silver based wound dressings is discussed and the prospective research direction is elaborated. This review aims to provide readers with an overview of the latest developments in silver nanotechnology, and to provide a little guidance for the research of nano‑silver functionalized polysaccharide-based wound dressings.

Abstract
Chitosan-based nanofibers (CS-NFs) are excellent artificial extracellular matrices (ECMs) due to the resemblance of CS with the glycosaminoglycans of the natural ECMs. Despite this excellent feature, the poor electrospinnability and mechanical properties of CS are responsible for important limitations in respect to its biomedical applications. To improve the CS's physico-chemical properties, new bioactive and biomimetic CS-NFs were formulated with polyethylene oxide (PEO), having incorporated different active components (ACs) with important beneficial effects for healing. Manuka honey (trophic and antimicrobial effects), propolis (antimicrobial effects), Calendula officinalis infusion (antioxidant effect, reepithelialization stimulating agent), insulin (trophic effect), and L-arginine (angiogenic effect) were selected as ACs. SEM morphology analysis revealed well-alignment, unidirectional arrays, with small diameters, no beads, and smooth surfaces for developed CS_PEO-ACs NFs. The developed NFs showed good biodegradability (NFs mats lost up to 60% of their initial weight in PBS), increased hemocompatibility (hemolytic index less than 4%), and a reduced cytotoxicity degree (cell viability degree more than 90%). In addition, significant antioxidant and antimicrobial effects were noted for the developed NFs which make them suitable for chronic wounds, due to the role of oxidative stress and infection risk in delaying normal wound healing. The most suitable for wound healing applications seems to be CS_PEO@P_C which showed an improved hemolysis index (2.92 ± 0.16%), is non-toxic (cell viability degree more than 97%), and has also significant radical scavenging effect (DPPH inhibition more than 65%). In addition, CS_PEO@P_C presents increased antimicrobial effects, more noticeably for Staphylococcus aureus strain, which is a key feature in preventing wound infection and delaying the healing process. It can be concluded that the developed CS/PEO-ACs NFs are very promising biomaterials for wound care, especially CS_PEO@P_C.

Abstract
Biologically active bacterial cellulose (BC) was efficiently synthesized in situ using wine pomace and its hydrolysate. The structural and biomechanical properties together with the biological functions of the BC were investigated. Functional BC from wine pomace and its enzymatic hydrolysate were of high purity and had higher crystallinity indexes (90.61% and 89.88%, respectively) than that from HS medium (82.26%). FTIR results proved the in-situ bindings of polyphenols to the functionalized BC. Compared to BC from HS medium, wine pomace-based BC had more densely packed ultrafine fibrils, higher diameter range distributions of fiber ribbon, but lower thermal decomposition temperatures, as revealed by the SEM micrographs and DSC data. Meanwhile, wine pomace-based BC exhibited higher loads in tensile strength and higher hardness (4.95 ± 0.31 N and 5.13 ± 0.63 N, respectively) than BC in HS medium (3.43 ± 0.14 N). Furthermore, BC synthesized from wine pomace hydrolysate exhibited a slower release rate of phenolic compounds, and possessed more antioxidant activities and better bacteriostatic effects than BC from wine pomace. These results demonstrate that BC synthesized in situ from wine pomace (especially from enzymatic hydrolysate) is a promising biomolecule with a potential application in wound dressing, tissue engineering, and other biomedical fields.

Abstract
In order to replace traditional wound treatments such as sutures, tissue adhesives with strong wet tissue adhesion and biocompatibility have attracted more attention to the applications of non-invasive wound closure. Herein, inspired by tunicate adhesive protein, a series of 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (TBA)-modified chitosan hydrogels (CS-TBA-Fe) were prepared by easily mixing the solutions of chitosan-FeCl3 and TBA via the Schiff-base reaction and the coordination between Fe3+ and pyrogallol groups. The gelation time was greatly shortened to only several seconds after induced even trace Fe3+. The hydrogel (CS-TBA-Fe) exhibited ~12-fold enhanced wet tissue adhesion strength (60.3 kPa) over the commercial fibrin glue. Meanwhile, the hydrogel also showed robust adhesion to various substrates such as wood, PMMA, and aluminum. The swelling ratio and rheological property can be simply controlled by changing the concentrations of chitosan, TBA, and Fe3+. Moreover, the hydrogel displayed a rapid and highly efficient self-healing ability and an excellent antibacterial activity against E. coli. The overall results show that the CS-TBA-Fe hydrogel with enhanced wet adhesiveness will be a promising tissue adhesive material.
