Abstract
Skin regeneration attracts tremendous interest due to the important role of skin for human protection and beauty. Thus, methods allowing artificial skin to be carried out in a controllable fashion are potentially important for wound healing, which involves an intersection of materials, medicine, biology, and other disciplines. Herein, aiming at a new general methodology for fleshy materials, a new hydrogel-loaded hydrophobic-hydrophilic nanofiber fleshy artificial skin is designed and fabricated. The gradient hydrogel-loaded nanofiber artificial skin integrates both advantages of nanofiber and hydrogel, exhibiting fleshy feature (comparability to real skin in terms of appearance, texture, and function), excellent air permeability, compatibility, and good mechanical and antibacterial property. Interestingly, the efficient transport channels are formed throughout the hydrogel-loaded nanofiber structure, which is beneficial for water absorption and transfer. These advantages enable the establishment of a moist and favorable microenvironment; thus, greatly accelerating wound healing process. This work couples microfluidic electrospinning with reactive coating technique, which is in favor of material design and fabrication with controllable and uniform structures. The hydrogel-loaded nanofiber fleshy artificial skin shows comparability to real skin in terms of beauty, texture, and function, which would definitely provide new opportunities for the further optimization and upgrading of artificial skin.

Abstract
The improper and inadequate treatment of industrial, agricultural, and household wastewater exerts substantial pressure on the existing ecosystem and poses a serious threat to the health of both humans and animals. To address these issues, different types of materials have been employed to eradicate detrimental pollutants from wastewater and facilitate the reuse of water resources. Nevertheless, owing to the challenges associated with the degradation of these traditional materials post-use and their incompatibility with the environment, natural biopolymers have garnered considerable interest. Silk protein, as a biomacromolecule, exhibits advantageous characteristics including environmental friendliness, low carbon emissions, biodegradability, sustainability, and biocompatibility. Considering recent research findings, this comprehensive review outlines the structure and properties of silk proteins and offers a detailed overview of the manufacturing techniques employed in the production of silk-based materials (SBMs) spanning different forms. Furthermore, it conducts an in-depth analysis of the state-of-the-art SBMs for water treatment purposes, encompassing adsorption, catalysis, water disinfection, desalination, and biosensing. The review highlights the potential of SBMs in addressing the challenges of wastewater treatment and provides valuable insights into prospective avenues for further research.

Abstract
Infected wounds pose challenges such as exudate management, bacterial infections, and persistent inflammation, making them a significant challenge for modern dressings. To address these issues in infected wounds more effectively, aerogel-hydrogel biphase gels based on dextran are developed. The gel introduced in this study exhibits antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties in the process of wound therapy, contributing to accelerated wound healing. The aerogel phase exhibits exceptional water-absorption capabilities, rapidly soaking up exudate from infected wound, thereby fostering a clean and hygienic wound healing microenvironment. Concurrently, the aerogel phase is enriched with hydrogen sulfide donors. Following water absorption and the formation of the hydrogel phase, it enables the sustained release of hydrogen sulfide around the wound sites. The experiments confirm that hydrogen sulfide, by promoting M2 macrophage differentiation and reducing the levels of inflammatory factors, effectively diminishes local inflammation levels at the wound site. Furthermore, the sodium copper chlorophyllin component within the hydrogel phase demonstrates effective antibacterial properties through photodynamic antimicrobial therapy, providing a viable solution to wound infection challenges.

Abstract
With the improvement of the hygiene awareness and pathogen prevention awareness of patients and medical staff, textiles with efficient and long-lasting pathogen inactivation effects are urgently needed. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has rapidly developed into a new type of antibacterial technology due to its high antibacterial activity and has received widespread attention. However, the commonly used photosensitizers are mostly inorganic nanomaterials, which have poor adhesion to textiles and are not environmentally or human friendly. Here, we report a strategy of preparation of a sunlight-driven rechargeable antibacterial textiles based on natural antibacterial agents, which can work in light and dark conditions. The prepared BD-PTL@wool has long-lasting antibacterial properties, can rapidly produce ROS, and can store sterilization activity under light irradiation, ensuring all-day bacterial killing (>99.95 % under light irradiation and >99.80 % under dark conditions after light irradiation). BD-PTL@wool has excellent reusability, and the antibacterial rate can still above 95 % after repeated use for 5 times. In addition, BD-PTL@wool has excellent hydrophilic, UV resistance, biocompatibility and can withstand 50 washing cycles. The successful application of this strategy in textile preparation broadens the research idea for exploring the application of green photosensitive antibacterial materials in textile field.

Abstract
Bacterial infections typically invade the living tissue of wounds, thereby aggravating the inflammatory response, delaying wound healing, or causing further complications. In this paper, the antibacterial hydrogel (PNVBA) with antifreezing and antidrying properties was prepared by a two-step method using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM), 1-butyl-3-vinylimidazolium bromide (VBIMBr), and 3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid (AAPBA). PNVBA hydrogels exhibited a high adsorption capacity of 280 mg·g-1 for bovine serum albumin (BSA) and can adhere to the surface of different materials through ion-dipole or hydrogen-bonding interactions. Meanwhile, the PNVBA hydrogels exhibited high viscoelasticity and good adhesion after freezing at -20 °C or heating at 70 °C for 24 h with a sterilizing rate of up to 98% against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Moreover, a survival rate of up to 90% after incubation with L929 cells over 24 h was observed. Therefore, this inherent antibacterial hydrogel can be used as an excellent alternative material for wound dressings.

Abstract
The clinical application of regenerated silk fibroin (RSF) films for wound treatment is restricted by its undesirable mechanical properties and lack of antibacterial activity. Herein, different pluronic polymers were introduced to optimize their mechanical properties and the RSF film with 2.5% pluronic F127 (RSFPF127) stood out to address the above issues owing to its satisfactory mechanical properties, hydrophilicity, and transmittance. Diverse antibacterial agents (curcumin, Ag nanoparticles, and antimicrobial peptide KR-12) were separately encapsulated in RSFPF127 to endow it with antibacterial activity. In vitro experiments revealed that the medicated RSFPF127 could persistently release drugs and had desirable bioactivities toward killing bacteria, promoting fibroblast adhesion, and modulating macrophage polarization. In vivo experiments revealed that medicated RSFPF127 not only eradicated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in the wound area and inhibited inflammatory responses, but also facilitated angiogenesis and re-epithelialization, regardless of the types of antibacterial agents, thus accelerating the recovery of infected wounds. These results demonstrate that RSFPF127 is an ideal matrix platform to load different types of drugs for application as wound dressings.

Abstract
The need for sustainable development has never been more urgent, as the world continues to struggle with environmental challenges, such as climate change, pollution, and dwindling natural resources. The use of renewable and recycled waste materials as a source of raw materials for biomaterials and tissue engineering is a promising avenue for sustainable development. Although tissue engineering has rapidly developed, the challenges associated with fulfilling the increasing demand for bone substitutes and implants remain unresolved, particularly as the global population ages. This review provides an overview of waste materials, such as eggshells, seashells, fish residues, and agricultural biomass, that can be transformed into biomaterials for bone tissue engineering. While the development of recycled metals is in its early stages, the use of probiotics and renewable polymers to improve the biofunctionalities of bone implants is highlighted. Despite the advances of additive manufacturing (AM), studies on AM waste-derived bone-substitutes are limited. It is foreseeable that AM technologies can provide a more sustainable alternative to manufacturing biomaterials and implants. The preliminary results of eggshell and seashell-derived calcium phosphate and rice husk ash-derived silica can likely pave the way for more advanced applications of AM waste-derived biomaterials for sustainably addressing several unmet clinical applications.

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
Niches with multiple physical and chemical cues can influence the fate of cells and tissues in vivo. Simulating the in vivo niche in the design of bioactive materials is a challenge, particularly to tune multiple cues simultaneously in the same system. Here, an assembly strategy was developed to regulate multiple cues in the same scaffold based on the use of two silk nanofiber components that respond differently during the fabrication processes. An aqueous solution containing the two components, amorphous silk nanofibers (ASNFs) and β-sheet-rich silk nanofibers (BSNFs), was sequentially treated with an electrical field and freeze-drying processes where the BSNFs oriented to the electrical field, while the ASNFs formed stable porous structures during the lyophilization process to impact the mechanical properties. Bioactive cargo, such as deferoxamine (DFO), was loaded on the BSNFs to enrich cell responses with the scaffolds. The in vitro results revealed that the loaded DFO and the anisotropic structures with improved mechanical properties resulted in better vascularization than those of the scaffolds without the anisotropic features. The multiple cues in the scaffolds provided angiogenic niches to accelerate wound healing.

Abstract
Developing composite materials with optimized mechanics, degradation, and bioactivity for bone regeneration has long been a crucial mission. Herein, a multifunctional Mg/Poly-l-lactic acid (Mg/PLLA) composite membrane based on the "materials plain" concept through the accumulative rolling (AR) method is proposed. Results show that at a rolling ratio of 75%, the comprehensive mechanical properties of the membrane in the rolling direction are self-reinforced significantly (elongation at break ≈53.2%, tensile strength ≈104.0 MPa, Young's modulus ≈2.13 GPa). This enhancement is attributed to the directional arrangement and increased crystallization of PLLA molecular chains, as demonstrated by SAXS and DSC results. Furthermore, the AR composite membrane presents a lamellar heterostructure, which not only avoids the accumulation of Mg microparticles (MgMPs) but also regulates the degradation rate. Through the contribution of bioactive MgMPs and their photothermal effect synergistically, the membrane effectively eliminates bacterial infection and accelerates vascularized bone regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. Notably, the membrane exhibits outstanding rat skull bone regeneration performance in only 4 weeks, surpassing most literature reports. In short, this work develops a composite membrane with a "one stone, four birds" effect, opening an efficient avenue toward high-performance orthopedic materials.

Abstract
Rapid and safe disinfection and exudate management are two major challenges in infected wound care. Therefore, in this work, we developed a novel wound dressing via encapsulating ZIF-8-derived carbon nanoparticles in a hydrophilic nanofiber sponge to address severe wound infection and heavy exudate problems. The dressing can effectively kill bacteria through chemo-photothermal synergistic therapy. Meanwhile, the hydrophilic nanofiber sponge can quickly absorb wound exudate around the wound and accelerate the evaporation rate of liquid through the photothermal effect and its own structure; therefore, it is possible to remove excess liquid and regulate its wetness. In this way, it prevents the problem of wound overhydration often caused by hydrophilic dressings. In our experiment, the dressing showed good antibacterial performance and biocompatibility in vitro and could effectively control wound infection, absorb wound exudate and promote skin wound healing in vivo. Its good therapeutic effect is not only due to effective infection control and wound exudate management, but also because the structure of nanofibers similar to an extracellular matrix provides basic physical support and structural signals conducive to skin tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Textiles with efficient and long-lasting antibacterial properties have attracted significant attention. However, a single antibacterial model is insufficient to with variable environments and achieve higher antibacterial activity. In this study, lysozyme was used as assistant and stabilizer, and the efficient peeling and functional modification of molybdenum disulfide nanosheets were realized by ultrasonic. Additionally, lysozyme in the presence of reducing agents to form amyloid-like phase-transited lysozyme (PTL) and self-assembling on the wool fabric. Finally, the AgNPs are reduced in situ by PTL and anchored onto the fabric. It has been demonstrated that Ag-MoS2/PTL@wool generates ROS under light irradiation, rapidly converts photothermal heat into generate hyperthermia, and promotes the release of Ag+. The aforementioned "four-in-one" approach resulted in bactericidal rates of 99.996 % (4.4 log, P < 0.0005) and 99.998 % (4.7 log, P < 0.0005) for S.aureus and E.coli, respectively. Even after 50 washing cycles, the inactivation rates remained at 99.813 % and 99.792 % for E.coli and S.aureus, respectively. In the absence of sunlight, AgNPs and PTL continue to provide continuous antibacterial activity. This work emphasizes the importance of amyloid protein in the synthesis and application of high-performance nanomaterials and provides a new direction for the safe and effective application of multiple synergistic antibacterial modes for microbial inactivation.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacterial infection is the most frequent wound complication, which has become a major clinical and healthcare challenge in wound management worldwide, leading to impaired healing processes, the risk of amputation, and even death. Here, collagen-based nanocomposite dressings (APZC) with broad-spectrum antibacterial activity are developed to promote the infected full-thickness wound healing. Short rod-like shaped ZnO NPs are synthesized and then coated with polydopamine (PDA) to obtain PDA coated ZnO NPs (PDA@ZnO NPs). Afterward, PDA@ZnO NPs are conjugated on the backbone of a collagen chain, and the obtained collagen-PDA@ZnO NPs conjugate is crosslinked by dialdehyde sodium alginate to fabricate APZC dressings. PDA@ZnO NPs show well dispersibility and are uniformly incorporated into the collagen matrix. APZC dressings have interconnected microporous structure and great physicochemical properties, besides good blood coagulation performance and well cytocompatibility. APZC dressings demonstrate long-lasting and excellently broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, which can relieve the inflammatory reaction by killing pathogenic bacteria and induce the generation of blood vessels and the orderly deposition of collagen in the wound site, thus promoting infected full-thickness wound healing without obvious scar formation. Overall, the functionalized collagen-based nanocomposite dressings have great potential in the clinical treatment against bacteria-associated wound infection.
