Abstract
Chronic bioenergetic imbalances and inflammation caused by hyperglycemia are obstacles that delay diabetic wound healing. However, it is difficult to directly deliver energy and metabolites to regulate intracellular energy metabolism using biomaterials. Herein, we propose a light-driven bioenergetic and oxygen-releasing hydrogel (PTKM@HG) that integrates the thylakoid membrane-encapsulated polyphenol nanoparticles (PTKM NPs) to regulate the energy metabolism and inflammatory response in diabetic wounds. Upon red light irradiation, the PTKM NPs exhibited oxygen generation and H2O2 deletion capacity through a photosynthetic effect to restore hypoxia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Meanwhile, the PTKM NPs could produce exogenous ATP and NADPH to enhance mitochondrial function and facilitate cellular anabolism by regulating the leucine-activated mTOR signaling pathway. Furthermore, the PTKM NPs inherited antioxidative and anti-inflammatory ability from polyphenol. Finally, the red light irradiated PTKM@HG hydrogel augmented the survival and migration of cells keratinocytes, and then accelerated angiogenesis and re-epithelialization of diabetic wounds. In short, this study provides possibilities for effectively treating diseases by delivering key metabolites and energy based on such a light-driven bioenergetic hydrogel.

Abstract
Lignin is the most abundant natural aromatic polymer in the world. Currently, researchers have developed a number of lignin-based composite materials that are widely used in various fields, including industry, agriculture and medicine. Especially in recent years, lignin has attracted great interest as a high-value product for biomedical applications. Due to its antioxidant, antibacterial, adhesive and other properties, lignin is a promising candidate for the development of hydrogel dressings. However, there is no comprehensive overview of the application of lignin-based hydrogel dressings. In this review, lignin-based hydrogel skin dressings were first presented, and the preparation methods of physical and chemical crosslinking in lignin-based hydrogel dressings were discussed. In addition, various functional and environmentally responsive lignin-based hydrogel dressings were primarily reviewed. Finally, the prospects for the development of novel multifunctional lignin-based hydrogel dressings in the future were presented. In conclusion, this review provided a timely and comprehensive summary of the latest advances in the use of lignin as a biomaterial for hydrogel dressings, which would provide valuable guidance for the further development of lignin-based hydrogels.

Laser enhanced photothermal effect of silver nanoparticles synthesized by chemical and green method on Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. BMC Chem 2024; 18:163. [PMID: 39227976 PMCID: PMC11370005 DOI: 10.1186/s13065-024-01263-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 09/05/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The antibacterial properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are extensively identified. In large quantities, they might be harmful. So many fields of nanotechnology have shown a great deal of interest in the development of an environmentally friendly, efficient method for synthesizing metal nanoparticles. Because of its antibacterial and antifungal properties toward a wide range of microbes, chitosan silver nanoparticles (AgNPs@Cs) constitute a newly developing class of bio-nanostructured hybrid materials. Furthermore, the use of photothermal therapy (PTT) has been suggested as a means of elimination of germs. These light-stimulated treatments are minimally invasive and have a few side effects. In the present work, the antibacterial effect of AgNPs at low concentrations; prepared by chemical and green methods as antimicrobial and photothermal agents in photothermal therapy; with laser irradiation were explored as combined treatment against MRSA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. METHODS Silver nanoparticles were produced in two ways. First, by sodium borohydrides, second, by chitosan (as a natural eco-friendly reducing, and capping agent). The nanostructure of AgNPs and AgNPs@Cs was confirmed by UV-visible spectrometer, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIRs), and direct light scattering (DLS). The antibacterial activity of the prepared nanoparticles and the laser irradiation was tested against three bacterial species of zoonotic importance; MRSA, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae; and was evaluated by measuring their minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC). RESULTS Silver nanoparticles produced by the two methods had spherical shapes with nearly the same particle size. The analysis of DLS showed that AgNPs were very stable with zeta potential - 28.8 mv, and 47.7 mv by chemical and chitosan synthesis, respectively. Furthermore, AgNPs@Cs showed higher antibacterial activity toward the tested bacterial species than AgNPs by chemical method. Additionally, the bacterial viability using photothermal laser therapy was reduced compared to laser and AgNPs alone. The bactericidal activities were higher when laser diode was coupled with AgNPs@Cs than by chemical reduction. CONCLUSION The laser combined treatment had a higher antimicrobial effect than AgNPs alone or laser irradiation alone.

Abstract
Chronic skin wounds, especially infected ones, pose a significant clinical challenge due to their increasing incidence and poor outcomes. The deteriorative microenvironment in such wounds, characterized by reduced extracellular matrix, impaired angiogenesis, insufficient neurogenesis, and persistent bacterial infection, has prompted the exploration of novel therapeutic strategies. In this study, we developed an injectable multifunctional hydrogel (GEL/BG@Cu + Mg) incorporating Gelatin-Tannic acid/ N-hydroxysuccinimide functionalized polyethylene glycol and Bioactive glass doped with copper and magnesium ions to accelerate the healing of infected wounds. The GEL/BG@Cu + Mg hydrogel composite demonstrates good biocompatibility, degradability, and rapid formation of a protective barrier to stop bleeding. Synergistic bactericidal effects are achieved through the photothermal properties of BG@Cu + Mg and sustained copper ions release, with the latter further promoting angiogenesis. Furthermore, the hydrogel enhances neurogenesis by stimulating axons and Schwann cells in the wound bed through the beneficial effects of magnesium ions. Our results demonstrate that the designed novel multifunctional hydrogel holds tremendous promise for treating infected wounds and allowing regenerative neurogenesis at the wound site, which provides a viable alternative for further improving clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Biodegradable self-healing hydrogels with antibacterial property attracted growing attentions in biomedication as wound dressings since they can prevent bacterial infection and promote wound healing process. In this research, a biodegradable self-healing hydrogel with ROS scavenging performance and enhanced tissue adhesion was fabricated from dopamine grafted oxidized pectin (OPD) and naphthoate hydrazide terminated PEO (PEO NH). At the same time, Fe3+ ions were incorporated to endow the hydrogel with near-infrared (NIR) triggered photothermal property to obtain antibacterial activity. The composite hydrogel showed good hemostasis performance based on mussel inspired tissue adhesion with biocompatibility well preserved. As expected, the composition of FeCl3 improved conductivity and endowed photothermal property to the hydrogel. The in vivo wound repairing experiment revealed the 808 nm NIR light triggered photothermal behavior of the hydrogel reduced the inflammation response and promoted wound repairing rate. As a result, this composite FeCl3/hydrogel shows great potential to be an excellent wound dressing for the treatment of infection prong wounds with NIR triggers.

Exudate-Induced Gelatinizable Nanofiber Membrane with High Exudate Absorption and Super Bactericidal Capacity for Bacteria-Infected Wound Management. Adv Healthc Mater 2024; 13:e2303293.

Abstract
Invasion of bacteria and continuous oozing of exudate are significant causes of interference with the healing of infected wounds. Therefore, an exudate-induced gelatinizable and near-infrared (NIR)-responsive nanofiber membrane composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC), and Fe-doped phosphomolybdic acid (Fe-PMA) with exceptional exudate absorption capacity and potent bactericidal efficacy is developed and denoted as the PVA-FP-CMC membrane. After absorbing exudate, the fiber membrane can transform into a hydrogel membrane, forming coordination bonds between the Fe-PMA and CMC. The unique exudate-induced gelation process imparts the membrane with high exudate absorption and retention capability, and the formed hydrogel also traps the bacteria that thrive in the exudate. Moreover, it is discovered for the first time that the Fe-PMA exhibits an enhanced photothermal conversion capability and photocatalytic activity compared to the PMA. Therefore, the presence of Fe-PMA provides the membrane with a photothermal and photodynamic therapeutic effect for killing bacteria. The PVA-FP-CMC membrane is proven with a liquid absorption ratio of 520.7%, a light-heat conversion efficiency of 41.9%, high-level generation of hydroxyl radical (•OH) and singlet oxygen (1O2), and a bacterial killing ratio of 100% for S. aureus and 99.6% for E. coli. The treatment of infected wounds on the backs of rats further confirms the promotion of wound healing by the PVA-FP-CMC membrane with NIR irradiation. Overall, this novel functional dressing for the synergistic management of bacteria-infected wounds presents a promising therapeutic strategy for tissue repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Sutures and staplers, as gold standards for clinical wound closure, usually cause secondary tissue injury and require professional technicians and equipment. The noninvasive hydrogel adhesives are used in various biomedical applications, such as wound closure, tissue sealing, and tissue regeneration, due to their remarkable properties. Recently-developed hydrogel adhesives, especially stimuli-responsive hydrogels, have shown great potential owing to their advantages in regulating their performance and functions according to the wound situations or external conditions, thus allowing the wounds to heal gradually. However, comprehensive summary on stimuli-responsive hydrogels as tissue adhesives is rarely reported to date. This review focuses on the advances in the design of various stimuli-responsive hydrogel adhesives over the past decade, including the systems responsive to pH, temperature, photo, and enzymes. Their potential biomedical applications, such as skin closure, cardiovascular and liver hemostasis, and gastrointestinal sealing, are emphasized. Meanwhile, the challenges and future development of stimuli-responsive hydrogel adhesives are discussed. This review aims to provide meaningful insights for the further design of next-generation of hydrogel adhesives for wound closure and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Adhesive hydrogels, playing an essential role in stretchable electronics, soft robotics, tissue engineering, and so forth, upon functioning often need to adhere to various substrates in wet conditions and simultaneously exhibit antibacterial/antioxidant properties while possessing the intrinsic stretchability and elasticity of the hydrogel network intact. Therefore, simple approaches to conveniently access adhesive hydrogels with multifunctional surfaces are being pursued. Herein, a facile strategy has been proposed to construct multifunctional adhesive hydrogels via surface engineering of a multifunctional carbon dot (CD)-decorated polymeric thin layer by dynamic bond exchange. By this strategy, a double cross-linked network hydrogel of polyacrylamide (PAM) and oxidized dextran (ODA) was engineered with a unique dense layer over the Schiff base hydrogel matrix by aqueous solution immersion of PA-120, versatile CDs derived from tannic acid (TA) and ε-polylysine (PL). Without any additional agents, the PA-120 CDs with residual polyphenolic/catechol and amine moieties were incorporated into the surface structure of the hydrogel network by the combined action of the Schiff base and hydrogen bonds to form a dense surface layer that can exhibit high wet adhesive performance via the amine-polyphenol/catechol pair. The armor-like dense architecture also endowed hydrogels with considerably enhanced tensile/compression properties and excellent antioxidant/antibacterial abilities. Besides, the single-sided modified Janus hydrogel and completely surface-modified hydrogel can be flexibly developed through this approach. This strategy will provide new insights into the preparation and application of surface-modified hydrogels featuring multiple functions and tunable interfacial properties.

Abstract
Periodontitis is an oral disease with the highest incidence globally, and plaque control is the key to its treatment. In this study, Microcin C7 was used to treat periodontitis, and a novel injectable temperature-sensitive sustained-release hydrogel was synthesized as an environmentally sensitive carrier for drug delivery. First, modified gelatin was formed from gelatin and glycidyl methacrylate. Then, Microcin C7-laden hydrogel was formed from cross-linking with double bonds between modified gelatin, N-isopropyl acrylamide, and 2-Methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine through radical polymerization, and the model drug Microcin C7 was loaded by electrostatic adsorption. The hydrogel has good temperature sensitivity, self-healing, and injectable properties. In vitro results showed that the hydrogel could slowly and continuously release Microcin C7 with good biocompatibility and biodegradability, with a remarkable antibacterial effect on Porphyromonas gingivalis. It also confirmed the antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects of Microcin C7-laden hydrogel in a periodontitis rat model. The results showed that Microcin C7-laden hydrogel is a promising candidate for local drug delivery systems in periodontitis.

Abstract
Skin injuries and drug-resistant bacterial infections pose serious challenges to human health. It is essential to establish a novel multifunctional platform with good anti-infection and wound-healing abilities. In this study, a new MXene-doped composite microneedle (MN) patch with excellent mechanical strength and photothermal antibacterial and ROS removal properties has been developed for infected wound healing. When the MN tips carrying the MXene nanosheets are inserted into the cuticle of the skin, they will quickly dissolve and subsequently release the nanomaterials into the subcutaneous infection area. Under 808 nm NIR irradiation, the MXene, as a "nano-thermal knife", sterilizes and inhibits bacterial growth through synergistic effects of sharp edges and photothermal antibacterial activity. Furthermore, ROS caused by injury and infection can be cleared by MXene-doped MNs to avoid excessive inflammatory responses. Based on the synergistic antibacterial and antioxidant strategy, the MXene-doped MNs have demonstrated excellent wound-healing properties in an MRSA-infected wound model, such as promoting re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis and inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory factors. Therefore, the multifunctional MXene-doped MN patches provide an excellent alternative for clinical drug-resistant bacteria-infected wound management.

Abstract
The various tissue damages are a severe problem to human health. The limited human tissue regenerate ability requires suitable biomaterials to help damage tissue repair and regeneration. Therefore, many researchers devoted themselves to exploring biomaterials suitable for tissue repair and regeneration. Polydopamine (PDA) as a natural and multifunctional material which is inspired by mussel has been widely applied in different biomaterials. The excellent properties of PDA, such as strong adhesion, photothermal and high drug-loaded capacity, seem to be born for tissue repair and regeneration. Furthermore, PDA combined with different materials can exert unexpected effects. Thus, to inspire researchers, this review summarizes the recent and representative development of PDA biomaterials in tissue repair and regeneration. This article focuses on why apply PDA in these biomaterials and what PDA can do in different tissue injuries.

Abstract
Non-healing wounds represent a significant burden for healthcare systems and society, giving rise to severe economic and human issues. Currently, the use of dressings and visual assessment represent the primary and standard care for wounds. Conventional dressings, like cotton gauze, provide only passive physical protection. Besides, they end up paradoxically hampering the wound-healing process by producing tissue damage and pain when removed during routine check-ups. In response to these limitations, researchers, engineers, and technologists are developing innovative dressings that incorporate advanced diagnostic and therapeutic functionalities, coined as "smart dressings". Now, the maturation of smart dressing is bringing them closer to real-life applications, leading to an exciting new generation of these devices. The next generation of smart dressings is capable of monitoring in real-time multiple biomarkers while including pro-healing capabilities in a single platform. Such multiplexed and theranostic smart dressings are expected to offer a timely biomarker-directed diagnosis of non-healing wounds while enabling rapid, automated, and personalized treatments of infection and chronicity. Herein, we provide an insightful overview of these advantageous devices, delving into the diverse spectrum of possible engineering strategies. This encompasses the use of electrochemical and optical platforms with diverse multiplexing architectures, such as multi-zone sensing arrays and multi-layered devices. Open or closed-loop theranostic mechanisms using various stimuli-responsive materials that could be internally or externally controlled are also included. Finally, a critical discussion on the main challenges and future directions of smart dressings is also offered.

Abstract
Bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties enable easier and safer treatment of wounds as compared to the traditional methods such as suturing and stapling. Composed of natural or synthetic polymers, these bioadhesives seal wounds and facilitate healing while preventing infections through the activity of locally released antimicrobial drugs, nanocomponents, or inherently antimicrobial polers. Although many different materials and strategies are employed to develop antimicrobial bioadhesives, the design of these biomaterials necessitates a prudent approach as achieving all the required properties including optimal adhesive and cohesive properties, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial activity can be challenging. Designing antimicrobial bioadhesives with tunable physical, chemical, and biological properties will shed light on the path for future advancement of bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties. In this review, the requirements and commonly used strategies for developing bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties are discussed. In particular, different methods for their synthesis and their experimental and clinical applications on a variety of organs are reviewed. Advances in the design of bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties will pave the way for a better management of wounds to increase positive clinical outcomes.

Janus polyurethane sponge as an antibiofouling, antibacterial, and exudate-managing dressing for accelerated wound healing. Acta Biomater 2023; 171:428-439. [PMID: 37716478 DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2023.09.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/18/2023]
Abstract
The non-fouling condition, bacteria-free environment and suitable moisture at wound site are crucial for chronic wound healing. However, it remains highly meaningful yet challenging to develop wound dressings that can simultaneously achieve these desirable functions. In this work, a kind of multifunctional Janus polyurethane sponge (Janus-PU) was designed and fabricated by coating near-infrared (NIR)-responsive and superhydrophobic nanoparticles (F-ZnO@Ag NPs) on one surface of sponge. The nano-functionalized outer layer can endow Janus-PU with superhydrophobic antifouling property for preventing bacterial colonization and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity due to the presence of Ag NPs. Especially, the synergistic combination of asymmetric structure and strong NIR photothermal effect can impart Janus-PU with NIR-controlled unidirectional exudate removal, thus achieving an optimal wetting environment for wound healing. The mice full-thickness skin acute wounds treated with Janus-PU under NIR irradiation showed superior anti-infection and healing effect compared to the commercial dressings. Significantly, the treatment using Janus-PU with NIR irradiation can accelerate the recovery of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected diabetic chronic wounds due to the synergistic effect of antibiofouling, antibacterial and exudate-managing. The Janus-PU as a promising multifunctional dressing can prevent bacterial invasion and create an appropriate environment for wound healing, providing an effective solution for intractable wounds and infections. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: The development of advanced wound dressings to ensure non-fouling condition, bacteria-free environment and suitable moisture is crucial for chronic wound healing. However, it remains a considerable challenge to simultaneously integrate antibiofouling, antibacterial and exudate-managing properties into a single dressing. In this work, we developed a kind of multifunctional Janus polyurethane sponge (Janus-PU) by a single-sided superhydrophobic modification strategy, which can simultaneously achieve superhydrophobic antifouling property, effective broad-spectrum antibacterial and near-infrared controlled exudate removal. The Janus-PU designed herein can not only create an optimal environment for accelerated wound healing, but also avoid frequent dressing replacement, thus providing an ideal material system for intractable wounds and infections.

Abstract
Bacterial-infected wound healing has always been a huge challenge to humans. Owing to the appearance of antibiotic resistance, there is an emergency need to design antibiotic-free wound dressings to treat such wounds. Herein, a novel antibiotic-free microneedle patch was designed, which its backing layer with antioxidant effect was coated with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, 2-O-α-D-glucopyranosyl-L-ascorbic acid (GLAA), and 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan through electrostatic interaction based on layer-by-layer self-assembly technique, and its tips consisted of gelatin and tannic acid (TA) via hydrogen bonding interaction (CGH/GTA MN patch). The obtained CGH/GTA MN patch could effectively puncture the skin, and exhibit properties of pH-responsive TA and GLAA release. In vitro experiments showed that the obtained CGH/GTA MN patch has excellent antioxidative (scavenging DPPH efficacy is above 80 %, and scavenging ABTS efficiency reaches about 100 %), antibacterial (antibacterial rates of nearly 100 % for both Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli)), biodegradable, and biocompatible properties. In the S. aureus-infected rat wounds, the CGH/GTA MN patch could efficiently accelerate infected-wound healing by eliminating S. aureus infection, inhibiting inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, and accelerating epidermal regeneration. Thus, this study will provide a promising strategy to heal bacterial-infected wounds.

Abstract
Delayed diabetic wound healing has placed an enormous burden on society. The key factors limiting wound healing include unresolved inflammation and impaired angiogenesis. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) gel, a popular biomaterial in the field of regeneration, has limited applications due to its non-injectable properties and rapid release and degradation of growth factors. Here, we prepared an injectable hydrogel (DPLG) based on PRP and laponite by a simple one-step mixing method. Taking advantages of the non-covalent interactions, DPLG could overcome the limitations of PRP gels, which is injectable to fill irregular injures and could serve as a local drug reservoir to achieve the sustained release of growth factors in PRP and deferoxamine (an angiogenesis promoter). DPLG has an excellent ability in accelerating wound healing by promoting macrophage polarization and angiogenesis in a full-thickness skin defect model in type I diabetic rats and normal rats. Taken together, this study may provide the ingenious and simple bioactive wound dressing with a superior ability to promote wound healing.

Abstract
Despite the adhesive hydrogels have gained progress and popularity, it is still an enormous challenge to develop a smart adhesion hydrogel for clinical medicine, which is an asymmetric adhesion hydrogel with on-demand detachment. Motivated by the thermal phase transition mechanism of gelatin, we have synthesized a Janus supramolecular hydrogel dressing with skin temperature-triggered adhesion by a simple one-pot process. This hydrogel has asymmetric and controllable adhesion, which not only can become the external objects barrier but also can achieve repeated adhesion and on-demand detachment triggered by temperature in tens of seconds. This hydrogel presents great mechanical performance (compressive strain of 65 %, 1.38 MPa) owing to the presence of supramolecular interactions in the hydrogel. Additionally, this hydrogel exhibits excellent antibacterial activity and biocompatibility. The synergistic effect of modified gelatin and ionic liquid greatly facilitates wound healing of full-thickness skin with high wound healing efficiency (98.45 %). Therefore, thanks to all these advantages, the Janus supramolecular hydrogel can be applied for wound management and treatment, which has huge potential in healing skin wounds.

Abstract
Antibacterial hydrogel wound dressings have attracted considerable attention in recent years. However, bacterial infections can occur at any point during the wound-healing process. There is a demand for hydrogels that possess on-demand antibacterial and excellent wound repair properties. Herein, we report a near-infrared (NIR)-light-responsive indocyanine green (ICG)-loaded polydopamine (PDA)-mediated graphene oxide (PGO) and amorphous calcium phosphate (CaP)-incorporated poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogel using a mussel-inspired approach. PGO was reduced by PDA, which endowed the hydrogel with electroactivity and provided abundant sites for loading ICG. Amorphous CaP was formed in situ in the PVA hydrogel to enhance its mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Taking advantage of the high photothermal and photodynamic efficiency of ICG-PGO, the ICG-PGO-CaP-PVA hydrogel exhibited fascinating on-demand antibacterial activity through NIR light irradiation. Moreover, the thermally induced gel-sol conversion of PVA accelerated the release of Ca ions and allowed the hydrogel to adapt to irregular wounds. Meanwhile, PGO endows the hydrogel with conductivity and cell affinity, which facilitate endogenous electrical signal transfer to control cell behavior. In vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that the ICG-PGO-CaP-PVA hydrogel exhibited a strong tissue repair activity under NIR light irradiation. This mussel-inspired strategy offers a novel way to design hydrogel dressings for wound healing.

Hyaluronic acid-based dual network hydrogel with sustained release of platelet-rich plasma as a diabetic wound dressing. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 314:120924. [PMID: 37173024 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.120924] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
In recent years, the incidence of diabetic skin ulcers has increased. Because of its extremely high disability and fatality rate, it brings a huge burden to patients and society. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains a large number of biologically active substances and is of great clinical value in the treatment of various wounds. However, its weak mechanical properties and the consequent abrupt release of active substances greatly limit its clinical application and therapeutic efficacy. Here, we chose hyaluronic acid (HA) and ε-polylysine (ε-PLL) to prepare a hydrogel with the ability to prevent wound infection and promote tissue regeneration. At the same time, using the macropore barrier effect of the lyophilized hydrogel scaffold, platelets in PRP are activated with calcium gluconate in the macropores of the scaffold carrier, and fibrinogen from PRP is converted in a fibrin-packed network forming a gel that interpenetrates the hydrogel scaffold carrier, thus creating a double network hydrogel with slow-release of growth factors from degranulated platelets. The hydrogel not only showed better performance in functional assays in vitro, but also showed more superior therapeutic effects in reducing inflammatory response, promoting collagen deposition, facilitating re-epithelialization and angiogenesis in the treatment of full skin defects in diabetic rats.

Abstract
Biofilm formation and antimicrobial resistance pose significant challenges not only in clinical settings (i.e., implant-associated infections, endocarditis, and urinary tract infections) but also in industrial settings and in the environment, where the spreading of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is on the rise. Indeed, developing effective strategies to prevent biofilm formation and treat infections will be one of the major global challenges in the next few years. As traditional pharmacological treatments are becoming inadequate to curb this problem, a constant commitment to the exploration of novel therapeutic strategies is necessary. Light-triggered therapies have emerged as promising alternatives to traditional approaches due to their non-invasive nature, precise spatial and temporal control, and potential multifunctional properties. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the different biofilm formation stages and the molecular mechanism of biofilm disruption, with a major focus on the quorum sensing machinery. Moreover, we highlight the principal guidelines for the development of light-responsive materials and photosensitive compounds. The synergistic effects of combining light-triggered therapies with conventional treatments are also discussed. Through elegant molecular and material design solutions, remarkable results have been achieved in the fight against biofilm formation and antibacterial resistance. However, further research and development in this field are essential to optimize therapeutic strategies and translate them into clinical and industrial applications, ultimately addressing the global challenges posed by biofilm and antimicrobial resistance.

Abstract
Skin damage and infection pose a severe challenge to human health. Construction of a novel versatile dressing with good anti-infection and healing-promoting abilities is greatly expected. In this paper, nature-source-based composite microspheres with dual antibacterial mechanisms and bioadhesive features by microfluidics electrospray for infected wound healing is developed. The microspheres enable sustained release of copper ions, which not only show long-term antibacterial properties, but also play important role in wound-healing-related angiogenesis. Additionally, the microspheres are coated with polydopamine via self-polymerization, which renders the microspheres adhesive to the wound surface, and further enhance the antibacterial ability through photothermal energy conversion. Based on the dual antibacterial strategies provided by copper ions and polydopamine as well as the bioadhesive property, the composite microspheres exhibit excellent anti-infection and wound healing performances in a rat wound model. These results, along with the nature-source-based composition and biocompatibility, indicate the great potential of the microspheres in clinical wound repair.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels (CHs) combine the biomimetic properties of hydrogels with the physiological and electrochemical properties of conductive materials, and have attracted extensive attention in the past few years. In addition, CHs have high conductivity and electrochemical redox properties and can be used to detect electrical signals generated in biological systems and conduct electrical stimulation to regulate the activities and functions of cells including cell migration, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. These properties give CHs unique advantages in tissue repair. However, the current review of CHs is mostly focused on their applications as biosensors. Therefore, this article reviewed the new progress of CHs in tissue repair including nerve tissue regeneration, muscle tissue regeneration, skin tissue regeneration and bone tissue regeneration in the past five years. We first introduced the design and synthesis of different types of CHs such as carbon-based CHs, conductive polymer-based CHs, metal-based CHs, ionic CHs, and composite CHs, and the types and mechanisms of tissue repair promoted by CHs including anti-bacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, stimulus response and intelligent delivery, real-time monitoring, and promoted cell proliferation and tissue repair related pathway activation, which provides a useful reference for further preparation of bio-safer and more efficient CHs used in tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Uncontrolled hemorrhage is a major cause of potentially preventable death in civilian trauma nowadays. Considerable concern has been given to the development of efficient hemostats with high blood absorption, self-propelled property, and Ca2+ release ability, for irregularly shaped and noncompressible hemorrhage. Herein, Janus self-propelled chitosan-based hydrogel with CaCO3 (J-CMH@CaCO3 ) is developed by partial ionic crosslinking of carboxylated chitosan (CCS) and Ca2+ , gravity settlement, and photopolymerization, followed by removing the shell of CCS. The obtained J-CMH@CaCO3 is further used as a hemostat powered by the internal CaCO3 and coordinated protonated tranexamic acid (J-CMH@CaCO3 /T). Bubbles are generated and detached to provide the driving force, accompanied by the release of Ca2+ . The two aspects work in synergy to accelerate clot formation, endowing the J-CMH@CaCO3 /T with excellent hemostatic efficiency. The J-CMH@CaCO3 /T presents high blood absorption, favorable blood-clotting ability, desired erythrocyte and platelet aggregation, and acceptable hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. In rodent and rabbit bleeding models, the J-CMH@CaCO3 /T exhibits the most effective hemostasis to the best knowledge of the authors, wherein the hemorrhage is rapidly halted within 39 s. It is believed that the J-CMH@CaCO3 /T with self-propelled property opens up a new avenue to design high-performance hemostats for clinical application.

Abstract
Developing novel hemostatic materials with accelerating wound healing functions has raised widespread attention recently. To adapt to irregular and incompressible wounds, we fabricated a series of biomass-derived ultrafast cross-linked adhesive hydrogels with adjustable gelation time and injectable properties through Schiff-base and ionic coordinate bonds among catechol-conjugated gelatin (GelDA), dialdehyde cellulose nanocrystals (DACNCs), calcium ions (Ca2+) and ferric iron (Fe3+). The fast-gelling hydrogels possess adjustable gelation time and mechanical properties by altering the contents of DACNCs and Fe3+. With double-dynamic-bond crosslinking, the hydrogels are endowed with the desired self-healing and injectable performance compared to gelatin-based hydrogels without DACNCs. Additionally, the hydrogels present enhanced adhesiveness, NIR responsiveness and antibacterial activity with the introduction of catechol groups and the formation of catechol-Fe complexes. Both in vitro and in vivo hemostatic assays and degradation experiments confirm that the hydrogels achieve rapid hemostasis and display fantastic biodegradability. As demonstrated by a rat full-thickness skin defect model, the hydrogels with multifunctionality remarkably accelerate the regeneration of wound tissues. Thus, the ultrafast cross-linked hydrogels are potentially valuable as hemostatic materials for wound healing applications in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Oral diseases represent one of the most prevalent diseases globally and are associated with serious health and economic burdens, greatly altering the quality of life of affected individuals. Various biomaterials play important roles in the treatment of oral diseases. To some extent, the development of biomaterials has promoted progress in clinically available oral medicines. Hydrogels have unique tunable advantages that make them useful in the next generation of regenerative strategies and have been widely applied in both oral soft and hard tissues repair. However, most hydrogels lack self-adhesive properties, which may result in low repair efficacy. Polydopamine (PDA), the primary adhesive component, has attracted increasing attention in recent years. PDA-modified hydrogels exhibit reliable and suitable adherence to tissues and easily integrate into tissues to promote repair efficiency. This paper reviews the latest research progress on PDA hydrogels and elaborates on the mechanism of the reaction between PDA functional groups and hydrogels, and summarizes the biological properties and the applications of PDA hydrogels in the prevention and treatment of the field of oral diseases. It is also proposed that in future research we should simulate the complex microenvironment of the oral cavity as much as possible, coordinate and plan various biological events rationally, and realize the translation from scientific research to clinical practice.

Abstract
Fluorescent nanocarbons are well-proficient nanomaterials because of their optical properties and surface engineering. Herein, Apium graveolens-derived carbon dots (ACDs) have been synthesized by a one-step hydrothermal process without using any surplus vigorous chemicals or ligands. ACDs were captured via an in situ gelation reaction to form a semi-interpenetrating polymer network system showing mechanical robustness, fluorescent behavior, and natural adhesivity. ACDs-reinforced hydrogels were tested against robust uniaxial stress, repeated mechanical stretching, thixotropy, low creep, and fast strain recovery, confirming their elastomeric sustainability. Moreover, the room-temperature self-healing behavior was observed for the ACDs-reinforced hydrogels, with a healing efficacy of more than 45%. Water imbibition through hydrogel surfaces was digitally monitored via "breathing" and "accelerated breathing" behaviors. The phytomedicine release from the hydrogels was tuned by the ACDs' microstructure regulatory activity, resulting in better control of the diffusion rate compared to conventional chemical hydrogels. Finally, the phytomedicine-loaded hydrogels were found to be excellent bactericidal materials eradicating more than 85% of Gram-positive and -negative bacteria. The delayed network rupturing, superstretchability, fluorescent self-healing, controlled release, and antibacterial behavior could make this material an excellent alternative to soft biomaterials and soft robotics.

Abstract
Bioadhesives with immediate wound closure, efficient hemostasis, and antibacterial properties that can well integrate with tissue are urgently needed in wound management. Natural small biological molecule based bioadhesives hold great promise for manipulating wound healing by taking advantage of integrated functionalities, synthetic simplification, and accuracy, cost efficiency and biosafety. Herein, a natural small biological molecule based bioadhesive, composed of natural small biological molecules (α-lipoic acid and tannic acid) and a small amount of ferric chloride, was prepared via an extremely simple and green route for wound management. In this system, covalent and noncovalent interactions between each component resulted in the self-healing supramolecular bioadhesive. It possessed appropriate wet-tissue adhesion, efficient nonpressing hemostasis and free radical scavenging abilities. More importantly, the interaction between tannic acid and Fe3+ endowed the bioadhesive with innate and steady photothermal activity, which showed excellent photothermal bactericidal activity to both E. coli and S. aureus. The bioadhesive promoted wound healing for linear and circular wounds in vivo, especially for infectious wounds under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation. This bioadhesive will have promising value as a safe and effective antimicrobial adhesive for infectious wound management.

Abstract
The adhesiveness of hydrogels is urgently required in various biomedical applications such as medical patches, tissue sealants, and flexible electronic devices. However, biological tissues are often wet, soft, movable, and easily damaged. These features pose difficulties for the construction of adhesive hydrogels for medical use. In nature, organisms adhere to unique strategies, such as reversible sucker adhesion in octopuses and nontoxic and firm catechol chemistry in mussels, which provide many inspirations for medical hydrogels to overcome the above challenges. In this review, we systematically classify bioadhesion strategies into structure-related and molecular-related ones, which cover almost all known bioadhesion paradigms. We outline the principles of these strategies and summarize the corresponding designs of medical adhesive hydrogels inspired by them. Finally, conclusions and perspectives concerning the development of this field are provided. For the booming bio-inspired adhesive hydrogels, this review aims to summarize and analyze the various existing theories and provide systematic guidance for future research from an innovative perspective.

Abstract
Antibacterial treatment that provides on-demand release of therapeutics that can kill a broad spectrum of pathogens while maintaining long-term efficacy and without developing resistance or causing side effects is urgently required in clinical practice. Here, we demonstrate the development of a multistimuli-responsive hydrogel, prepared by cross-linking N-isopropylacrylamide with acrylic acid and loaded with ultrasmall silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), offering the on-demand release of Ag+ ions triggered by changes in the wound microenvironment. We demonstrate that this dual-responsive hydrogel is highly sensitive to a typical wound pH and temperature change, evidenced by the restricted release of Ag+ ions at acidic pH (<5.5) while significantly promoting the release in alkaline pH (>7.4) (>90% release). The pH-dependent release and antibacterial effect show minimal killing at pH 4 or 5.5 but dramatically activated at pH 7.4 and 10, eliminating >95% of the pathogens. The in vivo antibacterial efficacy and safety showed a high potency to clear Staphylococcus aureus wound infection while significantly accelerating the wound healing rate. This multifunctional hydrogel presents a promising bacteria-responsive delivery platform that serves as an on-demand carrier to not only reduce side effects but also significantly boost the antibacterial efficiency based on physiological needs. It offers great potential to improve the way wound infections are treated with direct clinical implications, providing a single platform for long-lasting application in wound management.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are characterized by long-term inflammation and persistent infection, which make them difficult to heal. Therefore, an urgent desire is to develop a multifunctional wound dressing that can prevent wound infection and promote wound healing by creating a favorable microenvironment. In this study, a curcumin-based metal-organic framework (QCSMOF-Van), loaded with vancomycin and coated with quaternary ammonium salt chitosan (QCS), was prepared. Multifunctional composite hydrogels were conveniently synthesized by combining methacrylic anhydride modified gelatin and methacrylic anhydride modified oxidized sodium alginate with QCSMOF-Van through radical polymerization and Schiff base reaction. It is important to note that the QCSMOF-Van could capture bacteria through the positive charges on the surface of QCS. In this process, due to the synergistic effect of broad-spectrum antibacterial Zn2+ and vancomycin, the metabolism of bacteria was well inhibited, and the efficient capturing and rapid killing of bacteria were achieved. The QCSMOF-Van hydrogels could precisely regulate the balance of M1/M2 phenotypes of macrophages, thereby promoting the regeneration of nerves and blood vessels, which promotes the rapid healing of chronic wounds. This advanced cascade management strategy for tissue regeneration highlights the potential of multifunctional composite hydrogels in chronic wound dressings.

Abstract
Biocompatible adhesive films are important for many applications (e.g., wearable devices, implantable devices, and attachable sensors). In particular, achieving self-adhesion on one side of a film with biocompatible materials is a compelling goal in adhesion science. Herein, we report a simple and easy manufacturing process using water-soluble hyaluronic acid (HA) that allows adhesiveness on only one side using binary polymer mixtures based on a phase-separation strategy with an elastomer. HA influx allows for the entangled polymer chains of the elastomer to spontaneously deform, permitting tunable mechanical elasticity, conformability, and adhesion. The proposed adhesive film enables the transfer of nanopatterning and the attachment of various surfaces without the use of additional chemicals. In addition, the film can be used for measuring epidermal biopotential and for skin fixation of drug devices. Therefore, the developed facile asymmetric adhesion can block the interferences of other materials on the unnecessary adhesion side, providing considerable potential for the development of functional, multifunctional, and smart bioadhesives.

Abstract
Antibacterial wound dressings are confronted with the challenges in real-time imaging of infected wounds and effective removal of bacterial debris after sterilization to promote the healing process. Herein, injectable theranostic hydrogels were constructed from antimicrobial peptide ε-polylysine (ePL) and polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles for real-time diagnosis of infected wounds, imaging-guided antibacterial photodynamic therapy (PDT), and on-demand removal of bacterial debris. Ureido-pyrimidinone was conjugated on ePL to produce PLU hydrogels through quadruple hydrogen bonding, and the inoculation of tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin (TCPP)-loaded PDA (PTc) nanoparticles introduced Schiff base linkages in PLU@PTc hydrogels. The double-cross-linked networks enhance mechanical performance, adhesion strength, and self-healing properties of hydrogels, and the dynamic cross-linking enables their photothermal removal. The injection of PLU precursors and PTc NPs generates in situ sol-gel transformation, and the acid-triggered release of TCPP restores fluorescence emissions for real-time imaging of infected wounds under 410 nm illumination. Then, the released TCPP in the infected wounds is illuminated at 660 nm to launch a precise antibacterial PDT, which is strengthened by the bacterial capture on hydrogels. Hydrogels with wrapped bacterial debris are removed under illumination at 808 nm, and the hydrogel dressing change accelerates healing of infected wounds through simultaneous relief of oxidative stress, regulation of inflammatory factors, acceleration of collagen deposition, and promotion of angiogenesis. Thus, this study demonstrates a feasible strategy for wound infection theranostics through bacterial infection-triggered visual imaging, efficient nonantibiotic sterilization, and on-demand dressing change and bacterial debris removal.

Abstract
Preventing bacterial infection and controlling the inflammatory response occupy important positions in wound treatment. Although loading wound dressings with antibacterial or anti-inflammatory drugs/molecules is an effective approach to address these issues, simultaneous sustained release of these drugs remains challenging. Herein, hydrophilic polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride (PHGC) and hydrophobic indomethacin (Indo) are loaded in hydrophilic polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and hydrophobic polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers respectively by bidirectional electrospinning to form an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory PCL-Indo/PVA-PHGC wound dressing. The fabricated nanofiber membrane exhibits 100% disinfection activity to both Gram-negative (E. coli) and Gram-positive (S. aureus) bacteria because of the release of the broad-spectrum antibacterial molecule PHGC. Additionally, the loading of Indo in the nanofiber membrane enhances the expression level of IL-10, while inhibiting those of IL-6 and TNF-α in the RAW264.7 mouse cells. In the interwoven membrane of PCL and PVA fibers, the release of hydrophobic Indo is hindered by hydrophilic PHGC and PVA fibers, and similarly, the release of hydrophilic PHGC is hindered by hydrophobic Indo and PCL fibers. In conclusion, the PCL-Indo/PVA-PHGC nanofiber membrane has excellent antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and sustained-release effects, and thus regulates the immune microenvironment of the cells to potentially promote wound healing.

Abstract
Hydrogels composed of polyphenols and various macromolecules have been widely reported to have the advantage of facile preparation, mainly through the formation of hydrogen bonds. However, the traditional preparation method involves the direct mixing of polyphenols and macromolecules, which generally occurs too quickly and uncontrollably, and results in poor homogeneity, injectability, and shape designability. Here, inspired by the intermediate precursor during biomineralization, to facilitate transformation in a controllable way, we propose a novel and universal internal gelation method that creates an intermediate precursor by controlling the pH value to manipulate the elimination and generation of hydrogen bonds between a polyphenol and macromolecules. The precursor strategy greatly improves the homogeneity, injectability, and shape designability of the hydrogel while also achieving a controllable gelation process, and the gelation time can be accurately adjusted. The hydrogels prepared with this method exhibited superior capability to seal leaks, provided complete wound coverage, and showed the potential to be a shape-designable wearable strain sensor. Our study opens up a new way to construct and apply polyphenol-macromolecule hydrogels in a more controllable manner.

Abstract
Driven by the overuse of antibiotics, pathogenic infections, dominated by the rapid emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria, have become one of the greatest current global health challenges. Thus, there is an urgent need to explore novel strategies that integrate multiple antibacterial modes to deal with bacterial infections. In this work, a Co(Ni,Ag)/Fe(Al,Cr)2O4 composite duplex coating was fabricated using template-free sputtering deposition technology. The phase constitution of the coating was estimated to be 79 wt % Fe(Al,Cr)2O4 phase and 21 wt % of an Ag-containing metallic phase. The composite coating consisted of a ∼10 μm-thick porous outer-layer and a ∼6 μm-thick compact inner-layer, in which the outer-layer is composed of a densely stacked array of microscale cones. After exposure to ambient air for 14 days, the composite coating showed a wettability transition from a superhydrophilic nature to exhibit adhesive superhydrophobic behavior with a water contact angle of 142° ± 2.8°, but it reverted to its initial superhydrophilic state after annealing in air at 200 °C for 5 h. The absorption rate of the as-received composite coating exceeds 99% in a broad band spanning both the visible and NIR regions and showed a high photothermal efficiency to convert photon energy into heat. Similarly, the composite coating showed microwave absorption behavior with a minimum reflection loss value of 38 dB at 4.4 GHz. In vitro antibacterial tests were used to determine the antibacterial behavior of the composite coating against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus after 60 min of visible light irradiation. After this exposure, the as-prepared composite coating exhibited nearly 100% bactericidal efficiency against these bacteria. The antibacterial behavior of the coating was attributed to the synergistic effects of the superhydrophilic surface, the release of Ag+ ions, and the photothermal effect. Therefore, this composite coating may be a promising candidate to efficiently combat medical device-associated infections.

Abstract
The on-demand replacement of multifunctional hydrogel wound dressings helps to avoid bacterial colonization, and the on-demand painless peeling of tissue adhesive hydrogels on the wound site remains a major challenge to be solved. In this work, we design and develop a series of multifunctional dynamic Schiff base network hydrogels composed of cystamine-modified hyaluronic acid, benzaldehyde-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol)-co-poly(glycerol sebacate), and polydopamine@polypyrrole nanocomposite (PDA@PPy) with mild on-demand removability to enhance drug-resistant bacteria-infected wound healing. These hydrogels exhibited ideal injectable and self-healing properties, excellent tissue adhesion, in vivo hemostasis, good antioxidation, and conductivity. PDA@PPy inspired by melanin endows hydrogels with excellent antioxidant capacity, UV-blocking ability, and photothermal anti-infection ability. Based on the dynamic oxidation-reduction response of disulfide bonds inspired by the dissociation of the tertiary spatial structure transformation of poly-polypeptide chains, these hydrogels can achieve rapid painless on-demand removal under mild conditions by adding dithiothreitol. These multifunctional hydrogels significantly promoted collagen deposition and angiogenesis in the MRSA-infected full-thickness skin repair experiment. All the results showed that these multifunctional hydrogels with painless on-demand removal property showed great potential in clinical treatment of infected wounds.

Abstract
Incomplete contact between a pre-formed hydrogel and irregular wound limits the therapeutic effect of the dressing and increases the risk of infection; while great concerns have remained regarding the potential toxicity of the residual additives of chemical crosslinking for in situ forming hydrogels. Therefore, it is desirable to develop a self-adaptive hydrogel in response to skin temperature with shape adaptability and efficient antibacterial properties to prevent microbial invasion. Herein, a dually-thermoresponsive hydrogel composed of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm) and methacrylated κ-carrageenan (MA-κ-CA) is designed with compliance at physiological temperature to realize shape adaptability for completely covering irregular wounds. Furthermore, the hydrogel with near-infrared (NIR)-responsive polypyrrole-polydopamine nanoparticles (PPy-PDA NPs) and Zn2+ -derived zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) can generate localized heat and gradually release Zn2+ to realize safe, effective synergetic photothermal-chemical bactericidal capability. In addition, the release rate of Zn2+ can be accelerated by NIR-induced heating, and thus a more efficient sterilization can be provided to severely infected wounds. Therefore, the proposed hydrogel would serve as a promising wound dressing for the full course of wound healing, with the abilities of perfectly covering the wound and adapting to regenerating tissue, and controllable photothermal-chemical antibacterial capability to reach high bactericidal efficiency and long-term release of antibacterial agents.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex biological process that involves tissue regeneration. Traditional wound dressings are dry, cannot provide a moist environment for wound healing, and do not have high antibacterial properties. Hydrogels, which are capable of retaining large amounts of water, can create a moist healing environment. Currently, phototherapies have exhibited a high potential for the treatment of bacterial infections. Therefore, combining hydrogels with phototherapy can adequately overcome the shortcomings of traditional wound treatment methods and show great potential for wound healing owing to their high efficiency, low irritation, and good antibacterial performance. In this review, the application of hydrogels combined with phototherapy in wound healing is summarized. First, the basic principles of photodynamic therapy and photothermal therapy are briefly introduced. In addition, the progress of the application of hydrogel combined with phototherapy in wound healing is systematically investigated. Finally, the challenges and prospects of combining hydrogel with phototherapy in wound healing are discussed.

Abstract
Exploring new avenues for clinical management of chronic wounds holds the key to eliminating socioeconomic burdens and health-related concerns associated with this silent killer. Engineered biomaterials offer great promise for repair and regeneration of chronic wounds because of their ability to deliver therapeutics, protect the wound environment, and support the skin matrices to facilitate tissue growth. This mini review presents recent advances in biomaterial functionalities for enhancing wound healing and demonstrates a move from sub-optimal methods to multi-functionalized treatment approaches. In this context, we discuss the recently reported biomaterial characteristics such as bioadhesiveness, antimicrobial properties, proangiogenic attributes, and anti-inflammatory properties that promote chronic wound healing. In addition, we highlight the necessary mechanical and mass transport properties of such biomaterials. Then, we discuss the characteristic properties of various biomaterial templates, including hydrogels, cryogels, nanomaterials, and biomolecule-functionalized materials. These biomaterials can be microfabricated into various structures, including smart patches, microneedles, electrospun scaffolds, and 3D-bioprinted structures, to advance the field of biomaterial scaffolds for effective wound healing. Finally, we provide an outlook on the future while emphasizing the need for their detailed functional behaviour and inflammatory response studies in a complex in vivo environment for superior clinical outcomes and reduced regulatory hurdles.

Abstract
The treatment of diabetic wounds remains challenging due to the excess levels of oxidative stress, vulnerability to bacterial infection, and persistent inflammation response during healing. The development of hydrogel wound dressings with ideal anti-inflammation, antioxidant, and anti-infective properties is an urgent clinical requirement. In the present study, an injectable thermosensitive niobium carbide (Nb2 C)-based hydrogel (Nb2 C@Gel) with antioxidative and antimicrobial activity is developed to promote diabetic wound healing. The Nb2 C@Gel system is composed of Nb2 C and a PLGA-PEG-PLGA triblock copolymer. The fabricated Nb2 C nanosheets (NSs) show good biocompatibility during in vitro cytotoxicity and hemocompatibility assays and in vivo toxicity assays. In vitro experiments show that Nb2 C NSs can efficiently eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus protecting cells in the wound from oxidative stress damage. Meanwhile, Nb2 C NSs also exhibit good near-infrared (NIR) photothermal antimicrobial activity against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In vivo results demonstrate that Nb2 C@Gel promotes wound healing by attenuating ROS levels, reducing oxidative damage, eradicating bacterial infection under NIR irradiation, and accelerating angiogenesis. To summarize, the Nb2 C@Gel system, with its ROS-scavenging, photothermal antimicrobial and hemostatic activities, can be a promising and effective strategy for the treatment of diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Developing non-antibiotic-dependent antibacterial hydrogels for repairing infected skin defect remains largely unexplored. Herein, a synergic photothermal and synergic antibacterial hydrogel was designed via one-pot approach to cope with full-thickness skin wound infection. In this work, the mixture of silver‑sodium lignin sulfonate nanoparticles (Ag-SLS NPs) and polypyrrole-polydopamine nanoparticles (PPy-PDA NPs) for the first time as synergic photothermal agent was introduced into poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) to form Ag-SLS/PPy-PDA@PEGDA hydrogel. Thanks to the near-infrared light into heat conversion capacity of both Ag and PPy-PDA NPs, the formed hydrogel shows ultrahigh photothermal activity, and outstanding antibacterial activity to both Gram-negative (E. coli) and Gram-positive (S. aureus) bacteria in vitro. Additionally, in vivo assay indicates that the hydrogel has outstanding long-term antibacterial effect due to the photothermal sterilization along with Ag ions release. Overall, the dual-synergic photothermal and antibacterial effects of the Ag-SLS/PPy-PDA@PEGDA hydrogel could highly accelerate infection wound healing, and thus has great potential to be used for tissue engineering.

Abstract
Multiple stretchable materials have been successively developed and applied to wearable devices, soft robotics, and tissue engineering. Organohydrogels are currently being widely studied and formed by dispersing immiscible hydrophilic/hydrophobic polymer networks or only hydrophilic polymer networks in an organic/water solvent system. In particular, they can not only inherit and carry forward the merits of hydrogels, but also have some unique advantageous features, such as anti-freezing and water retention abilities, solvent resistance, adjustable surface wettability, and shape memory effect, which are conducive to the wide environmental adaptability and intelligent applications. This review first summarizes the structure, preparation strategy, and unique advantages of the reported organohydrogels. Furthermore, organohydrogels can be optimized for electro-mechanical properties or endowed with various functionalities by adding or modifying various functional components owing to their modifiability. Correspondingly, different optimization strategies, mechanisms, and advanced developments are described in detail, mainly involving the mechanical properties, conductivity, adhesion, self-healing properties, and antibacterial properties of organohydrogels. Moreover, the applications of organohydrogels in flexible sensors, energy storage devices, nanogenerators, and biomedicine have been summarized, confirming their unlimited potential in future development. Finally, the existing challenges and future prospects of organohydrogels are provided.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are a major health problem with increasing global prevalence, which endangers the physical and mental health of those affected and is a heavy burden to healthcare providers. Artemisia argyi extract (AE) has excellent antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. In this research, we developed AE loaded composite hydrogel scaffold based on methacrylate gelatin (GelMA)/methacrylate hyaluronic acid (HAMA) and mesoporous silica nanoparticle (MSN) as sustained-release drug carrier vehicles for the treatment of chronic wounds. The presented GelMA/1%HAMA hydrogel possessed stable rheological properties, suitable mechanical properties, appropriate biodegradability, swelling, sustained-release AE capacity. In vitro antibacterial and cell experiments showed that the GelMA/HAMA/MSN@AE hydrogel had excellent antibacterial activity and biocompatibility and induced macrophages to differentiate into M2 phenotype. In vivo wound healing of rat full-thickness cutaneous wounds further demonstrated that the prepared GelMA/HAMA/MSN@AE hydrogel could significantly promote chronic wound healing by upregulating the expression of IL-4, TGF-β1, CD31, and α-SMA but downregulating the expression of TNF-α and IFN-γ and promoting M1-M2 macrophages polarization. Altogether, we believe that the GelMA/HAMA/MSN@AE hydrogel will have wide application prospects in healing chronic wounds.

Abstract
The emergence of peroxidase (POD)-like nanozyme-derived catalytic therapy has provided a promising choice for reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated broad-spectrum antibacterials to replace antibiotics, but it still suffers from limitations of low therapeutic efficiency and unusual addition of unstable H2O2. Considering that the higher blood glucose in diabetic wounds provides much more numerous nutrients for bacterial growth, a cascade nanoenzymatic active material was developed by coating glucose oxidase (GOx) onto POD-like Fe2(MoO4)3 [Fe2(MoO4)3@GOx]. GOx could consume the nutrient of glucose to produce gluconic acid (weakly acidic) and H2O2, which could be subsequently converted into highly oxidative •OH via the catalysis of POD-like Fe2(MoO4)3. Accordingly, the synergistic effect of starvation and ROS-mediated therapy showed significantly efficient antibacterial effect while avoiding the external addition of H2O2 that affects the stability and efficacy of the therapy system. Compared with the bactericidal rates of 46.2-59.404% of GOx or Fe2(MoO4)3 alone on extended-spectrum β-lactamases producing Escherichia coli and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, those of the Fe2(MoO4)3@GOx group are 98.396 and 98.776%, respectively. Animal experiments showed that the as-synthesized Fe2(MoO4)3@GOx could much efficiently promote the recovery of infected wounds in type 2 diabetic mice while showing low cytotoxicity in vivo.

Abstract
Bacteria-induced wound infections and multifunctional hydrogels have received widespread attention in wound repair. In this study, self-assembling peptides (SAPs) were grafted on O-carboxymethyl chitosan (O-CMCS), and compact spatial structure and good drug sustained-release effect on mel-d1, a new AMP designed based on melittin with the same antimicrobial activity but lower cytotoxicity and ciprofloxacin (CIP) were obtained. In vivo test showed that the O-CMCS/SAP hydrogel loaded with CIP and mel-d1 accelerated the wound closure speed caused by infection of Escherichia coli and skin tissue regeneration. Both of the enhanced interaction between O-CMCS/SAP and CIP/Mel-d1 because of the hydrophobic interaction and π-π stacking, and the potential tissue healing ability of SAP played important roles. This study provided a rational design method of O-CMCS by grafting SAPs to give a wider range of biological functions.

Abstract
Multifunctional hydrogel as a sealant or wound dressing with high adhesiveness and excellent antibacterial activity is highly desirable in clinical applications. In this contribution, one-step synthetic hydrogel based on quaternized chitosan (QCS), tannic acid (TA), and ferric iron (Fe(III)) is developed for skin incision closure and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)-infected wound healing. In this hydrogel system, the ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds between QCS and TA form the main backbone of hydrogel, the metal coordination bonds between TA and Fe(III) (catechol-Fe) endow hydrogel with excellent adhesiveness and (near-infrared light) NIR-responsive photothermal property, and these multiple dynamic physical crosslinks enable QCS/TA/Fe hydrogel with flexible self-healing ability and injectability. Moreover, QCS/TA/Fe hydrogel possesses superior antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hemostasis, and biocompatibility. Also, it is safe for vital organs. The data from the mouse skin incision model and infected full-thickness skin wound model presented the high wound closure effectiveness and acceleration of the wound healing process by this multifunctional hydrogel, highlighting its great potential in wound management.

Burn injury has become a crucial public health issue worldwide. It is necessary to explore new methods to reduce heat damage and improve healing efficiency during burn injury treatment. In this study, a kind of hydrogel combining heat storage capacity and thermal conductivity was fabricated via a one-pot method for burn therapy. The novel hydrogel was easily prepared by in situ cross-linking polymerization, using poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) derivatives, oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate and 2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethyl methacrylate, as thermally responsive base materials and hydroxylated multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNT-OH) as thermally conductive fillers. By dispersing CNT-OH, a thermally conductive network was formed in the hydrogel, leading to an increase in the thermal conductivity. The cooling performance, thermal conductivity, heat storage property, swelling performance, rheological and mechanical properties, biocompatibility, in vivo cooling effect, and wound healing properties of the prepared hydrogel were systematically investigated. The hydrogel consisted of thermally responsive PEG derivatives, and CNT-OH performed a function of rapid heat absorption, further reduced thermal damage, and promoted wound healing. The improved cooling performance of the hydrogel was ascribed to the improved thermal conductivity, enhanced heat storage capacity, and good adhesive ability. Thus, the hydrogel has great potential to be practically applied in burn therapy, laser treatment, cooling fabrics, heat-protective clothing, and other emergency scenarios.

Abstract
For quick disinfection treatment, phototherapy, including photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy, has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional methods. However, the bactericidal effect of phototherapy, which only works upon light, is short-lived. The remaining bacteria in situ may repopulate when the irradiation of light is withdrawn. To address this refractory concern, an antibacterial fibrous membrane consisting of electrospun poly (polycaprolactone) scaffolds and polydopamine (pDA) coated MXene/Ag3 PO4 bioheterojunctions (MX@AgP bio-HJs) is devised and developed. Upon near-infrared (NIR) illumination, the MX@AgP nanoparticle (NP) in nanofibrous electrospun membranes exert the excellent bactericidal effect of phototherapy and release Ag+ ions which stop the remaining bacteria from multiplying in the dark state. When removing NIR light, pDA in situ reduces Ag+ ions to Ag0 NPs to realize the self-rechargeability of Ag+ ions and provides enough Ag+ ions for the second phototherapy. In vivo results show that photoactivated nanofibrous membranes can re-shape an infected wound microenvironment to the regenerative microenvironment through killing bacteria, ceasing bleeding, increasing epithelialization, and collagen deposition on the wound bed, as well as promoting angiogenesis. As predicted, the proposal work offers potential prospects for nanofibrous membranes with NIR-assisted "self-rechargeable" antibacterial properties to treat bacteria-infected full-thickness wounds.
