Abstract
Microbial infection diseases are a major threat to human health and have become one of the main causes of mortality. The search for novel antimicrobial strategies is an important challenge for the scientific community, considering also the constant increase of antimicrobial resistance and the rise of new diseases. Among the new strategies to combat microbial infections, the photothermal effect seems to be one of the most promising. Hyperthermia is an effective and broad spectrum strategy for the removal of microbial infections. Among all of the strategies to reduce the diffusion of microbial infections, the preparation of antimicrobial surfaces seems of primary importance. In many cases, in fact, an infection can be diffused through surfaces just by touching them, or by inoculating microbes through an internalizable device, such as an implant, a prosthesis, or a catheter. In this review, we will summarize the recent advances in the preparation of photothermal antibacterial surfaces.

Acidity-activated aggregation and accumulation of self-complementary zwitterionic peptide-decorated gold nanoparticles for photothermal biofilm eradication. J Colloid Interface Sci 2024; 663:1074-1086. [PMID: 38331692 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2024.02.018] [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: 11/24/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
Drug-resistant biofilm infection is an extremely serious clinical problem, that easily leads to failure of antibiotic treatment. Although gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as photothermal agents have been widely used in biofilm eradication, there are still challenges to be addressed, such as insignificantly redshifted absorption and slow assembly process of aggregated AuNPs. Herein, we developed an acidity-activated dispersion-to-aggregation transition to enhance the accumulation of self-complementary zwitterionic peptide-decorated AuNPs for photothermal eradication of drug-resistant biofilm infections. AuNPs were decorated with self-complementary zwitterionic peptides (ZP1 and ZP2) coupled with pH-sensitive anhydride (DMA) and pH-insensitive anhydride (SA), respectively. ZP2-decorated AuNPs with DMA modification (AuNP@ZP2(DMA)) exhibited prolonged blood circulation and enhanced accumulation in acidic biofilm microenvironment. Moreover, the electrostatic attraction between self-complementary ligands drove AuNPs to form closely packed aggregates with strong near-infrared absorption, leading to in vivo photoacoustic imaging ability and photothermal effect against drug-resistant bacteria and fungus, as well as microbial biofilms. AuNP@ZP2(DMA) with longer charge domains and a polyethylene glycol oligomer spacer showed greater photothermal antimicrobial and biofilm resistance in vitro and in vivo. This study develops an innovative acidity-activated AuNP photothermal agent, which provides an effective approach for treatment of biofilm infections.

Abstract
The discovery of antibiotics has saved millions of lives, but the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has become another problem in modern medicine. To avoid or reduce the overuse of antibiotics in antibacterial treatments, stimuli-responsive materials, pathogen-targeting nanoparticles, immunogenic nano-toxoids, and biomimetic materials are being developed to make sterilization better and smarter than conventional therapies. The common goal of smart antibacterial materials (SAMs) is to increase the antibiotic efficacy or function via an antibacterial mechanism different from that of antibiotics in order to increase the antibacterial and biological properties while reducing the risk of drug resistance. The research and development of SAMs are increasingly interdisciplinary because new designs require the knowledge of different fields and input/collaboration from scientists in different fields. A good understanding of energy conversion in materials, physiological characteristics in cells and bacteria, and bactericidal structures and components in nature are expected to promote the development of SAMs. In this review, the importance of multidisciplinary insights for SAMs is emphasized, and the latest advances in SAMs are categorized and discussed according to the pertinent disciplines including materials science, physiology, and biomimicry.

Abstract
The increased demand for improved strategies for wound healing has, in recent years, motivated the development of multifunctional hydrogels with favorable bio-compatibility and antibacterial properties. To this regard, the current study presented the design of a novel self-healing composite hydrogel that could perform as wound dressing for the promotion of wound healing. The composite hydrogels were composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), borax and chitosan functionalized with sialic acid (SA-CS) and curcumin loaded pluronic F127 micelles. The hydrogels were formed through the boronic ester bond formation between PVA, SA-CS and borax under physiological conditions and demonstrated adjustable mechanical properties, gelation kinetics and antibacterial properties. When incubating with NIH3T3 cells, the hydrogels also demonstrated good biocompatibility. These aspects offer a promising foundation for their prospective applications in developing clinical materials for wound healing.

Abstract
Gelatin and starch are considered as promising sustainable materials for their abundant production and good biodegradability. Efforts have been made to explore their medical application. Herein, scaffolds based on gelatin and starch with a preferred microstructure and antibacterial antioxidant property were fabricated by the emulsion template method. The dialdehyde starch was firstly combined with silver nanoparticles and curcumin to carry out the efficient hybrid antibacterial agent. Then, the gelatin microsphere of appropriate size was prepared by emulsification and gathered by the above agent to obtain gelatin-based scaffolds. The prepared scaffolds showed porous microstructures with high porosity of over 74 % and the preferred pore sizes of ∼65 μm, which is conducive to skin regeneration. Moreover, the scaffolds possessed a good swelling ability of over 640 %, good degradability of over 18 days, excellent blood compatibility, and cell compatibility. The promising antibacterial and antioxidant properties came from the hybrid antibacterial agent were affirmed. As expected, the gelatin-based scaffolds fabricated by the emulsion template method with a preferred microstructure can facilitate more adhered fibroblasts. In summary, gelatin-based scaffolds functionalized by starch-based complex expanded the application of abundant sustainable materials in the biomedical field, especially as antibacterial antioxidant wound dressings.

Abstract
The global pandemic and excessive use of antibiotics have raised concerns about environmental health, and efforts are being made to develop alternative bactericidal agents for disinfection. Metal-based nanomaterials and their derivatives have emerged as promising candidates for antibacterial agents due to their broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, environmental friendliness, and excellent biocompatibility. However, the reported antibacterial mechanisms of these materials are complex and lack a comprehensive understanding from a coherent perspective. To address this issue, a new perspective is proposed in this review to demonstrate the toxic mechanisms and antibacterial activities of metal-based nanomaterials in terms of energy conversion and electron transfer. First, the antimicrobial mechanisms of different metal-based nanomaterials are discussed, and advanced research progresses are summarized. Then, the biological intelligence applications of these materials, such as biomedical implants, stimuli-responsive electronic devices, and biological monitoring, are concluded based on trappable electrical signals from electron transfer. Finally, current improvement strategies, future challenges, and possible resolutions are outlined to provide new insights into understanding the antimicrobial behaviors of metal-based materials and offer valuable inspiration and instructional suggestions for building future intelligent environmental health.

Abstract
We report a supramolecular naphthalene diimide (NDI) radical anion with efficient NIR-II photothermal conversion for E. coli-responsive photothermal therapy. The supramolecular radical anion (NDI-2CB[7])⋅- , which is obtained from the E. coli-induced in situ reduction of NDI-2CB[7] neutral complex, formed by the host-guest interaction between an NDI derivative and cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]), exhibits unexpectedly strong NIR-II absorption and remarkable photothermal conversion capacity in aqueous solution. The NIR-II absorption is caused by the self-assembly of NDI radical anions to form supramolecular dimer radicals in aqueous solution, which is supported by theoretically predicted spectra. The (NDI-2CB[7])⋅- demonstrates excellent NIR-II photothermal antimicrobial activity (>99 %). This work provides a new approach for constructing NIR-II photothermal agents and non-contact treatments for bacterial infections.

Abstract
Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) had aroused tremendous attention in photodynamic antibacterial therapy due to its excellent energy band structure and appealing optical performance. Nevertheless, the superfast electron-hole recombination and dense biofilm formation abated its photodynamic antibacterial effect. To this end, a nanoheterojunction was synthesized via in-situ growing copper sulfide (CuS) on g-C3N4 (CuS@g-C3N4). On the one hand, CuS could form Fermi level difference with g-C3N4 to accelerate carrier transfer and thus facilitate electron-hole separation. On the other hand, CuS could respond near-infrared light to generate localized thermal to disrupt biofilm. Then the CuS@g-C3N4 nanoparticle was introduced into the poly-l-lactide (PLLA) scaffold. The photoelectrochemistry results demonstrated that the electron-hole separation efficiency was apparently enhanced and thereby brought an approximate sevenfold increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. The thermal imaging indicated that the scaffold possesses a superior photothermal effect, which effectively eradicated the biofilm by disrupting its extracellular DNA and thereby facilitated to the entry of ROS. The entered ROS could effectively kill the bacteria by causing protein, K+, and nucleic acid leakage and glutathione consumption. As a consequence, the scaffold displayed an antibacterial rate of 97.2% and 98.5% against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively.

Abstract
Although photothermal therapy (PTT) employing nanozymes has shown excellent antibacterial potential, excessive heating generally harms host cells and hinders recovery. Herein, we report an innovative technique for acquiring the programmed temperature by managing the catalytic activity of nanozymes. The photothermal system of CeO2 + F- + TMB can obtain precise photothermal temperature by adjusting the concentration of fluoride ions under near-infrared irradiation. At the optimized photothermal temperature, the photothermal system affords fine photothermal antibacterial treatment with high-efficiency antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli in vitro. In vivo wound healing experiments confirm that the system can effectively promote fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis and collagen deposition with remarkable wound healing efficiency. This strategy offers a novel design concept for creating a new generation of PTT and opens the way for the creation of alternative antibiotics.

Abstract
To combat multidrug-resistant bacteria, researchers have poured into the development and design of antimicrobial agents. Here, low-cost two-dimensional (2D) antibacterial material titanium monoxide nanosheets (TiO NSs) were prepared by an ultrasonic-assisted liquid-phase exfoliation method. When cultured with bacteria, TiO NSs showed intrinsic antimicrobial capacity, possibly due to membrane damage caused by the sharp edges of TiO NSs. Under near-infrared (NIR) laser irradiation, TiO NSs showed high photothermal conversion efficiency (PTCE) and sterilization efficiency. By combining these two antibacterial mechanisms, TiO NSs exhibited a strong killing effect on Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram-positive methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Especially after treatment with TiO NSs (150 μg mL-1) +near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, both bacteria were completely killed. In vivo experiments on wound repair of bacterial infection further confirmed its antibacterial effect. In addition, TiO NSs had no obvious toxicity or side effects, so as a kind of broad-spectrum 2D antibacterial nanoagent, TiO NSs have broad application prospects in the field of pathogen infection.

Abstract
Hydrogels are widely used in wound dressings due to their moisturizing properties and biocompatibility. However, traditional hydrogel dressings cannot monitor wounds and provide accurate treatment. Recent advancements focus on hydrogel dressings with integrated monitoring and treatment functions, using sensors or intelligent materials to detect changes in the wound microenvironment. These dressings enable responsive treatment to promote wound healing. They can carry out responsive dynamic treatment in time to effectively promote wound healing. However, there is still a lack of comprehensive reviews of hydrogel wound dressings that incorporate both wound micro-environment monitoring and treatment functions. Therefore, this review categorizes hydrogel dressings according to wound types and examines their current status, progress, challenges, and future trends. It discusses various wound types, including infected wounds, burns, and diabetic and pressure ulcers, and explores the wound healing process. The review presents hydrogel dressings that monitor wound conditions and provide tailored treatment, such as pH-sensitive, temperature-sensitive, glucose-sensitive, pressure-sensitive, and nano-composite hydrogel dressings. Challenges include developing dressings that meet the standards of excellent biocompatibility, improving monitoring accuracy and sensitivity, and overcoming obstacles to production and commercialization. Furthermore, it provides the current status, progress, challenges, and future trends in this field, aiming to give a clear view of its past, present, and future.

Abstract
Oral biofilms, which are also known as dental plaque, are the culprit of a wide range of oral diseases and systemic diseases, thus contributing to serious health risks. The manner of how to achieve good control of oral biofilms has been an increasing public concern. Novel antimicrobial biomaterials with highly controllable fabrication and functionalization have been proven to be promising candidates. However, previous reviews have generally emphasized the physicochemical properties, action mode, and application effectiveness of those biomaterials, whereas insufficient attention has been given to the design rationales tailored to different infection types and application scenarios. To offer guidance for better diversification and functionalization of anti-oral-biofilm biomaterials, this review details the up-to-date design rationales in three aspects: the core strategies in combating oral biofilm, as well as the biomaterials with advanced antibiofilm capacity and multiple functions based on the improvement or combination of the abovementioned antimicrobial strategies. Thereafter, insights on the existing challenges and future improvement of biomaterial-assisted oral biofilm treatments are proposed, hoping to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the subsequent design and application of antibiofilm biomaterials.

Abstract
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria-related wound infections are a thorny issue. It is urgent to develop new antibacterial wound dressings that can not only prevent wounds from MDR bacteria infection but also promote wound healing. Herein, an aggregation-induced emission (AIE) molecule BITT-composited bacterial cellulose (BC) is presented as wound dressings. BC-BITT composites have good transparency, making it easy to monitor the wound healing process through the composite membrane. The BC-BITT composites retain the advantages of biocompatible BC, and display photodynamic and photothermal synergistic antibacterial effects under irradiation of a 660 nm laser. Furthermore, the BC-BITT composites show excellent wound healing performance in a mouse full-thickness skin wound model infected by MDR bacteria, simultaneously with negligible toxicity. This work paves a way for treating clinically troublesome wound infections.

Abstract
Contact lens sensors provide a noninvasive approach for intraocular pressure (IOP) monitoring in patients with glaucoma. Accurate measurement of this imperceptible pressure variation requires highly sensitive sensors in the absence of simultaneously amplifying IOP signal and blinking-induced noise. However, current noise-reduction methods rely on external filter circuits, which thicken contact lenses and reduce signal quality. Here, we introduce a contact lens strain sensor with an anti-jamming ability by utilizing a self-lubricating layer to reduce the coefficient of friction (COF) to remove the interference from the tangential force. The sensor achieves exceptionally high sensitivity due to the strain concentration layout and the confined occurrence of sympatric microcracks. The animal tests prove our lens can accurately detect IOP safely and reliably.

Abstract
Revascularization plays a critical role in the healing of diabetic wounds. Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and refractory multidrug resistant bacterial infection are the two major barriers to revascularization, directly leading to impaired healing of diabetic wounds. Here, an artfully designed chiral gel dressing is fabricated (named as HA-LM2-RMR), which consists of l-phenylalanine and cationic hexapeptide coassembled helical nanofibers cross-linked with hyaluronic acid via hydrogen bonding. This chiral gel possesses abundant chiral and cationic sites, not only effectively reducing AGEs via stereoselective interaction but also specifically killing multidrug resistant bacteria rather than host cells since cationic hexapeptides selectively interact with negatively charged microbial membrane. Surprisingly, the HA-LM2-RMR fibers present an attractive ability to activate sprouted angiogenesis of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells by upregulating VEGF and OPA1 expression. In comparison with clinical Prontosan Wound Gel, the HA-LM2-RMR gel presents superior healing efficiency in the infected diabetic wound with respect to angiogenesis and re-epithelialization, shortening the healing period from 21 days to 14 days. These findings for chiral wound dressing provide insights for the design and construction of diabetic wound dressings that target revascularization, which holds great potential to be utilized in tissue regenerative medicine.

Enzymatic bionanocatalysts for combating peri-implant biofilm infections by specific heat-amplified chemodynamic therapy and innate immunomodulation. Drug Resist Updat 2023; 67:100917.

Abstract
Bacterial biofilm-associated infection is a life-threatening emergency contributing from drug resistance and immune escape. Herein, a novel non-antibiotic strategy based on the synergy of bionanocatalysts-driven heat-amplified chemodynamic therapy (CDT) and innate immunomodulation is proposed for specific biofilm elimination by the smart design of a biofilm microenvironment (BME)-responsive double-layered metal-organic framework (MOF) bionanocatalysts (MACG) composed of MIL-100 and CuBTC. Once reaching the acidic BME, the acidity-triggered degradation of CuBTC allows the sequential release of glucose oxidase (GOx) and an activable photothermal agent, 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS). GOx converts glucose into H2O2 and gluconic acid, which can further acidify the BME to accelerate the CuBTC degradation and GOx/ABTS release. The in vitro and in vivo results show that horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-mimicking MIL-100 in the presence of self-supplied H2O2 can catalyze the oxidation of ABTS into oxABTS to yield a photothermal effect that breaks the biofilm structure via eDNA damage. Simultaneously, the Cu ion released from the degraded CuBTC can deplete glutathione and catalyze the splitting of H2O2 into •OH, which can effectively penetrate the heat-induced loose biofilms and kill sessile bacteria (up to 98.64%), such as E. coli and MRSA. Particularly, MACG-stimulated M1-macrophage polarization suppresses the biofilm regeneration by secreting pro-inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL-6, TNF-α, etc.) and forming a continuous pro-inflammatory microenvironment in peri-implant biofilm infection animals for at least 14 days. Such BME-responsive strategy has the promise to precisely eliminate refractory peri-implant biofilm infections with extremely few adverse effects.

Abstract
Infectious diseases remain a serious global challenge threatening human health. Oral infectious diseases, a major neglected global problem, not only affect people's lifestyles but also have an intimate association with systemic diseases. Antibiotic therapy is a common treatment. However, the emergence of new resistance problems hindered and enhanced the complication of the treatment. Currently, antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has long been the topic of intense interest due to the advantage of being minimally invasive, low toxicity, and high selectivity. aPDT is also becoming increasingly popular and applied in treating oral diseases such as tooth caries, pulpitis, periodontal diseases, peri-implantitis, and oral candidiasis. Photothermal therapy (PTT), another phototherapy, also plays an important role in resisting resistant bacterial and biofilm infections. In this mini-review, we summarize the latest advances in photonics-based treatments of oral infectious diseases. The whole review is divided into three main parts. The first part focuses on photonics-based antibacterial strategies and mechanisms. The second part presents applications for photonics-based treatments of oral infectious diseases. The last part discusses present problems in current materials and future perspectives.

Abstract
With the widespread prevalence of drug-resistant pathogens, traditional antibiotics have limited effectiveness and do not yield the desired outcomes. Recently, alternative antibacterial therapies based on ultrasound (US) have been explored to overcome the crisis of bacterial pathogens. Antimicrobial sonodynamic therapy (aSDT) offers an excellent solution that relies on US irradiation to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and achieve antibiotic-free mediated antimicrobial effects. In addition, aSDT possesses the advantage of superior tissue penetrability of US compared to light irradiation, demonstrating great feasibility in treating deep infections. Although existing conventional sonosensitizers can produce ROS for antimicrobial activity, some limitations, such as low penetration rate, nonspecific distribution and poor ROS production under hypoxic conditions, result in suboptimal sterilization in aSDT. Recently, emerging nanosonosensitizers have enormous advantages as high-performance agents in aSDT, which overcome the deficiencies of conventional sonosensitizers as described above. Thus, nanosonosensitizer-mediated aSDT has a bright future for the management of bacterial infections. This review classifies the current available nanosonosensitizers and provides an overview of the mechanisms, biomedical applications, recent advances and perspectives of aSDT.

Abstract
As an emerging antibacterial strategy, photothermal disinfection attracts increasing attention due to its advantages of high efficacy, wide pertinence, and non-drug resistance. However, the unavoidable shielding of observation by photothermal components and the possible damage to normal tissue caused by hyperthermia restrict its applications. Herein, we propose a composite hydrogel with the ability of on-demand generation of photothermal components and mild-temperature photothermal disinfection by elegantly tuning the binding and release of iodine and starch. The composite hydrogel is obtained by blending iodine-adsorbed pH-responsive ZIF-8 nanoparticles (NPs) with a starch-based hydrogel matrix. Through a convenient pH response, the composite hydrogel leverages the triple functions of iodine, which serves as a disinfectant and reacts with starch to generate a photothermal agent and color indicator, allowing photothermal-chemotherapy combined disinfection on demand. In vitro antibacterial experiments show that the composite hydrogel can respond to the acidification of the microenvironment caused by bacterial metabolism and produce corresponding color changes, realizing naked-eye observation. Meanwhile, under the combined treatment of heating/I2/Zn2+, the composite hydrogel can completely kill Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus at a mild temperature of ∼41 °C. This study represents a breakthrough in on-demand generation of photothermal hydrogels for mild-temperature photothermal disinfection.

Abstract
In this study, an adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH)/ tannic acid (TA)-grafted hyaluronic acid (HA)-based multifunctional hydrogel was synthesized through a spontaneous amino-yne click reaction and used to promote the improved healing of infected diabetic wounds. This hydrogel exhibited a range of beneficial properties such as tunable gelation time, adjustable mechanical properties, pH-sensitive response characteristics, excellent injectability, the ability to readily adhere to tissue, and ultra-intimate contact capabilities. Following the encapsulation of ultrasmall Ag nanoclusters (AgNCs) and deferoxamine loaded polydopamine/ hollow mesoporous manganese dioxide (PHMD, PDA/H-mMnO2@DFO) nanoparticles, the prepared hydrogel presented with robust antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic properties and a desirable smart drug release profile. In this fabricated platform, PHMD was able to effectively alleviate localized oxidative stress and prolonged oxygen deprivation via the decomposition of endogenous H2O2 to produce O2. Further in vivo assays revealed that this hydrogel was capable of facilitating the healing of infected wounds through the sequential engagement of antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic activities. Together, this synthesized clickable environmentally-responsive hydrogel offers great promise as a tool that can be applied to aid in the healing of chronically infected diabetic wounds and other inflammatory conditions.

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
Surface bacterial fouling has become an urgent global challenge that calls for resilient solutions. Despite the effectiveness in combating bacterial invasion, antibiotics are susceptible to causing microbial antibiotic resistance that threatens human health and compromises the medication efficacy. In nature, many organisms have evolved a myriad of surfaces with specific physicochemical properties to combat bacteria in diverse environments, providing important inspirations for implementing bioinspired approaches. This review highlights representative natural antibacterial surfaces and discusses their corresponding mechanisms, including repelling adherent bacteria through tailoring surface wettability and mechanically killing bacteria via engineering surface textures. Following this, we present the recent progress in bioinspired active and passive antibacterial strategies. Finally, the biomedical applications and the prospects of these antibacterial surfaces are discussed.

Abstract
We report a cationic porphyrin 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(4-N-methylpyridyl)-porphyrin (TMPyP) that can respond to specific bacteria, followed by adaptable photodynamic/photothermal therapy processes. TMPyP could be reduced to phlorin by facultative anaerobes with a strong reducing ability such as E. coli and S. typhimurium in hypoxic environments, possessing strong NIR absorption and remarkable photothermal conversion capacity, thus demonstrating excellent antimicrobial activity (>99 %) by photothermal therapy. While in an aerobic environment with aerobic bacteria, TMPyP functioned as a typical photosensitizer that killed bacteria effectively (>99.9 %) by photodynamic therapy. By forming a host-guest complex with cucurbit[7]uril, the biocompatibility of TMPyP significantly improved. This kind of bacteria-responsive porphyrin shows specificity and adaptivity in antimicrobial treatment and holds potential in non-invasive treatments of bacterial infections.

Abstract
The repair of infected bone defects (IBDs) is still a great challenge in clinic. A successful treatment for IBDs should simultaneously resolve both infection control and bone defect repair. Hydrogels are water-swollen hydrophilic materials that maintain a distinct three-dimensional structure, helping load various antibacterial drugs and biomolecules. Hybrid hydrogels may potentially possess antibacterial ability and osteogenic activity. This review summarizes the recent progress of different kinds of antibacterial agents (including inorganic, organic, and natural) encapsulated in hydrogels. Several representative hydrogels of each category and their antibacterial mechanism and effect on bone repair are presented. Moreover, the advantages and disadvantages of antibacterial agent hybrid hydrogels are discussed. The challenge and future research directions are further prospected.

Abstract
Black phosphorus (BP) nanosheets emerged as promising 2D nanomaterial that have been applied to eradicate antibiotic-resistant bacteria. However, their applications are limited by intrinsic ambient instability. Here, the ε-poly-l-lysine (ε-PL)-engineered BP nanosheets are constructed via simple electrostatic interaction to cater the demand for passivating BP with amplified antibacterial activity. The dual drug-delivery complex named BP@ε-PL can closely anchor onto the surface of bacteria, leading to membrane disintegration. Subsequently, in situ hyperthermia generated by BP under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation can precisely eradicate pathogenic bacteria. In vitro antibacterial studies verify the rapid disinfection ability of BP@ε-PL against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) within 15 min. Moreover, ε-PL can serve as an effective protector to avoid chemical degradation of bare BP. The in vivo antibacterial study shows that a 99.4% antibacterial rate in a MRSA skin infection model is achieved, which is accompanied by negligible toxicity. In conclusion, this work not merely provides a new conjecture for protecting the BP, but also opens a novel window for synergistic antibiotic-resistant bacteria therapy based on antimicrobial peptides and 2D photothermal nanomaterial.

Abstract
Microenvironment-responsive hydrogels present high potential in treating refractory wounds due to their capability of on-demand drug release. In this study, a specially designed hydrogel with smart targeting of refractory wound characteristics was designed to treat chronically infected diabetic wounds. Aminated gelatin reacted with oxidized dextran, forming a hydrogel cross-linked with a dynamic Schiff base, which is sensitive to the low-pH environment in refractory wounds. Nano-ZnO was loaded into the hydrogel for killing microbes. A Paeoniflorin-encapsulated micelle with a ROS-responsive property was fixed to the skeleton of the hydrogel via a Schiff base bond for low-pH- and ROS-stimulated angiogenic activity. The sequential responsiveness of the novel hydrogel enabled smart rescue of the deleterious microenvironment in refractory wounds. This highly biocompatible hydrogel demonstrated antibacterial and angiogenic abilities in vitro and significantly promoted healing of chronically infected diabetic wounds via sequential hemostatic, microbe killing, and angiogenic activities. This microenvironment-responsive hydrogel loaded with nZnO and Pf-encapsulated micelles holds great potential as a location-specific dual-response delivery platform for curing refractory, chronically infected diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Utilizing photothermal hydrogels as a wound dressing is a promising strategy to accelerate wound healing. Usually, a photothermal hydrogel has a strong light-absorbing capability, and hence its transparency can be largely sacrificed, which is unbeneficial for the visual monitoring of wound states. It remains challenging to balance the trade-off between the photothermal conversion and wound visualization for the photothermal hydrogel dressing. Herein, a composite photothermal hydrogel film with high transparency is presented for the visual monitor of the wound, which is constructed by incorporating CsxWO3 nanorods into the networks of polyacrylamide hydrogels. The composite photothermal hydrogel film exhibits high light absorption in the near-infrared region and high transmittance in the visible light region. Under 980 nm laser irradiation, the composite hydrogel can be heated up to 45 °C. In vivo animal experiment on mouse skin wound model shows that the composite hydrogel film can locally heat the skin wound to accelerate healing while maintaining more than 70% transparency to realize real-time observation of the wound. This study provides the first attempt to solve the problem of opacity in photothermal hydrogel dressings, promoting the possibility of its clinical applications.

Abstract
Designing adhesive hydrogel wound dressings with inherent antibacterial and antioxidant properties is desirable to treat cutaneous full-thickness injuries in clinical care. Herein, a series of photo-induced Schiff base crosslinking-based adhesive hydrogels with promising traits are designed and prepared through Diels-Alder (DA) reactions between functional groups-grafted carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) and a photo-responsive polyethylene glycol (PEG) crosslinker. The quaternary ammonium and phenol groups in modified CMCS endows hydrogels excellent antibacterial and antioxidant properties. Upon UV (365 nm) irradiation, the generated o-nitrosobenzaldehyde from the photo-isomerization of o-nitrobenzyl in PEG derivative can subsequently crosslink with amino groups on tissue interfaces via Schiff base, endowing the hydrogel with well adhesiveness. Additionally, the hydrogel exhibits good BSA adsorption capacity, cytocompatibility and hemostatic property. The in vivo full-thickness skin defect study on mice indicates that the multi-functional hydrogel with considerable collagen deposition and vascularization capacities can be an effective and promising adhesive dressing for improving wound healing.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and the ever-increasing bacterial resistance have imposed severe threat to human health. And bacterial contamination could significantly menace the wound healing process. Considering the sophisticated wound healing process, novel strategies for skin tissue engineering are focused on the integration of bioactive ingredients, antibacterial agents included, into biomaterials with different morphologies to improve cell behaviors and promote wound healing. However, a comprehensive review on anti-bacterial wound dressing to enhance wound healing has not been reported. In this review, various antibacterial biomaterials as wound dressings will be discussed. Different kinds of antibacterial agents, including antibiotics, nanoparticles (metal and metallic oxides, light-induced antibacterial agents), cationic organic agents, and others, and their recent advances are summarized. Biomaterial selection and fabrication of biomaterials with different structures and forms, including films, hydrogel, electrospun nanofibers, sponge, foam and three-dimension (3D) printed scaffold for skin regeneration, are elaborated discussed. Current challenges and the future perspectives are presented in this multidisciplinary field. We envision that this review will provide a general insight to the elegant design and further refinement of wound dressing.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a major public-health issue. Synthesis of efficient antibiotic-free material is very important for fighting bacterial infection-related diseases. Herein, red-carbon dots (R-CDs) with a broad range of spectral absorption (350-700 nm) from organic bactericides or intermediates were synthesized through a solvothermal route. The prepared R-CDs not only had intrinsic antibacterial activities, but also could kill multidrug-resistant bacteria (multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MRAB) and multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)) effectively by generating reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, R-CDs could eliminate and inhibit the formation of MRAB biofilms, while conferring few side effects on normal cells. A unique property of R-CDs was demonstrated upon in vivo treatment of antibiotic-sensitive MRAB-induced infected wounds. These data suggested that this novel R-CDs-based strategy might enable the design of next-generation agents to fight drug-resistant bacteria. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL Supplementary material is available for this article at 10.1007/s40843-021-1770-0 and is accessible for authorized users.

Abstract
Because the wound is difficult to heal, repeated bacterial infection will lead to complex clinical problems. Therefore, it is necessary to find an effective method to strengthen the healing process and resist bacterial infection. Hydrogels have many advantages, such as injectability and self-healing under physiological conditions, so they have been widely studied in recent years. Hydrogels can keep the wound moist and promote the wound healing. In addition, the growth of bacteria can be obviously inhibited by hydrogels themself or by doping some antibacterial active substances. Based on this, herein, this review highlighted the preparation and properties of different polysaccharide-based injectable hydrogels, and discuss their biological applications in antibacterial therapy for wound healing in recent years.

Abstract
Introduction: With the development of photothermal technology, the appearance of composite photothermal hydrogels has increased the selectivity of treating infectious skin defects. However, how to design composite photothermal hydrogel with better antibacterial performance, reduce the resistance rate of bacteria, and the damage rate of normal tissue still needs further study. Methods: The Prussian blue and tannic acid were loaded on polyacrylamide hydrogels. Characterization of DLS, Zeta potential, UV absorption spectrum, hydrogel swelling rate, scanning electronic microscopic, drug release profile, photothermal properties, in vitro cytocompatibility, and antibacterial properties. Experiments were measured by skin defect repair, antibacterial detection, and histological staining experiments. Results: The polyacrylamide hydrogel with photothermal effect and controllable release of tannic acid was successfully prepared. The hydrogel has strong light transmittance and adhesion, and the swelling rate can reach 600%, which improves the self-cleaning ability. SEM results showed the porous structure of hydrogels, promoting cell growth. Through photothermal switches, the composite hydrogel represented adjustable and controllable drug release ability. Combined with the synergistic antibacterial effect of tannic acid, this further enhanced the antibacterial ability and reduced the probability of antibiotic resistance. The in vitro and in vivo experiments showed the hydrogel had good biocompatibility and excellent antibacterial properties, which could promote the repair of infectious skin defects in SD rats. Conclusion: We fabricated a hydrogel with a triggering drug release rate, alleviating heat damage, transparent morphology, mechanical stability, strong adhesion, good biocompatibility, and synergistic antibacterial ability, which presents new treatment options for infectious skin defect repair.

Abstract
The abuse of antibiotics induces the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria, which greatly increases the difficulty of clinical treatment of infected wounds. It is urgent to design a multifunctional wound dressing independent of antibiotics. In this work, we designed multifunctional hydrogels based on lignin and cellulose in natural polymers. Lignin with antioxidant properties could reduce silver nanoparticles in situ and could also be used as a crosslinking agent to construct hydrogels between hydroxypropyl cellulose modified with phenylboric acid by a dynamic borate bond. Hydrogels have excellent properties such as self-healing, shape adaptability, biocompatibility, blood compatibility, antioxidant properties, excellent broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties, good tissue adhesion, and electrical conductivity. The tissue adhesion of hydrogels endows them with an excellent hemostasis property in a rat liver injury model. In vivo experiments demonstrated that hydrogels can maintain a moist healing environment, reduce inflammatory cell infiltration, promote M2 macrophage polarization, accelerate collagen deposition, promote the regeneration of new blood vessels, and significantly speed up the wound healing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected wounds. Therefore, these multifunctional hydrogels are an excellent candidate to treat multiple stages of wound healing and have a broad application prospect in the medical field.

Abstract
The knowledge of mechanics of materials has been extensively implemented in developing functional materials, giving rise to recent advances in soft actuators, flexible electronics, mechanical metamaterials, tunable mechanochromics, regenerative mechanomedicine, etc. While conventional mechanics of materials offers passive access to mechanical properties of materials in existing forms, a paradigm shift is emerging toward proactive programming of materials' functionality by leveraging the force-geometry-property relationships. Here, such a rising field is coined as "mechanomaterials". To profile the concept, the design principles in this field at four scales is first outlined, namely the atomic scale, the molecular scale, the manipulation of nanoscale materials, and the microscale design of structural materials. A variety of techniques have been recruited to deliver the multiscale programming of functional mechanomaterials, such as strain engineering, capillary assembly, topological interlocking, kirigami, origami, to name a few. Engineering optical and biological functionalities have also been achieved by implementing the fundamentals of mechanochemistry and mechanobiology. Nonetheless, the field of mechanomaterials is still in its infancy, with many open challenges and opportunities that need to be addressed. The authors hope this review can serve as a modest spur to attract more researchers to further advance this field.

Abstract
Healthcare-acquired infections as well as increasing antimicrobial resistance have become an urgent global challenge, thus smart alternative solutions are needed to tackle bacterial infections. Antibacterial materials in biomedical applications and hospital hygiene have attracted great interest, in particular, the emergence of surface design strategies offer an effective alternative to antibiotics, thereby preventing the possible development of bacterial resistance. In this review, recent progress on advanced surface modifications to prevent bacterial infections are addressed comprehensively, starting with the key factors against bacterial adhesion, followed by varying strategies that can inhibit biofilm formation effectively. Furthermore, "super antibacterial systems" through pre-treatment defense and targeted bactericidal system, are proposed with increasing evidence of clinical potential. Finally, the advantages and future challenges of surface strategies to resist healthcare-associated infections are discussed, with promising prospects of developing novel antimicrobial materials.

Abstract
Chronic wound healing, impeded by bacterial infections and drug resistance, poses a threat to global human health. Antibacterial phototherapy is an effective way to fight microbial infection without causing drug resistance. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are a class of highly crystalline functional porous carbon-based materials composed of light atoms (e.g., carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and borane), showing potential applications in the biomedical field. Herein, we constructed porphyrin-based COF nanosheets (TP-Por CON) for synergizing photodynamic and photothermal therapy under red light irradiation (e.g., 635 nm). Moreover, a nitric oxide (NO) donor molecule, BNN6, was encapsulated into the pore volume of the crystalline porous framework structure to moderately release NO triggered by red light irradiation for realizing gaseous therapy. Therefore, we successfully synthesized a novel TP-Por CON@BNN6-integrated heterojunction for thoroughly killing Gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli and Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus in vitro. Our research identified that TP-Por CON@BNN6 has favorable biocompatibility and biodegradability, low phototoxicity, anti-inflammatory properties, and excellent mice wound healing ability in vivo. This study indicates that the TP-Por CON@BNN6-integrated heterojunction with multifunctional properties provides a potential strategy for COF-based gaseous therapy and microorganism-infected chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive hydrogels possess unique advantages in drug delivery due to their variable performance and status based on the external environment. In the present study, a dual-responsive (pH and reactive oxygen species (ROS)) hydrogel was prepared to realize drug release properties under inflammatory stimulation. By grafting 3-carboxy-phenylboronic acid to the gelatin molecular backbone and cross-linking with poly(vinyl alcohol), we successfully synthesized the inflammation-responsive drug-loaded hydrogels after encapsulation with vancomycin-conjugated silver nanoclusters (VAN-AgNCs) and pH-sensitive micelles loaded with nimesulide (NIM). This novel design not only retained the dynamic functions of hydrogels, such as injectability, self-healing, and remodeling, but also realized sequential and on-demand drug delivery at diabetic-infected wound sites. In this work, we found that the hydrogel exhibited excellent biocompatibility and hemostasis properties owing to the enhanced cell-adhesive property of the gelatin component. The significant antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect of the hydrogel was demonstrated in an in vitro experiment. Moreover, in the in vivo experiment, the hydrogel was found to play a role in promoting infected wound healing through sequential hemostasis and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory processes. Collectively, this inflammation-responsive hydrogel design containing VAN-AgNCs and NIM-loaded micelles has great potential in the application of chronically infected diabetic wound treatment, as well as in other inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Tissue damage caused by hyperthermia during photothermal therapy (PTT) has largely limited its clinical applications for implant infection. However, rescue of tissue regeneration by conjugating orthobiologics with PTT has been problematic as they can easily deactivate biologics while eradicating bacteria. Herein, we report an orthobiologics-free strategy to synergistically couple photocatalytic antibacterial with pro-osteogenic capacity via self-assembly of copper sulphide nanoparticle (CuS NP) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on implant surface. This strategy not only offers enhanced photothermal effects for bacterial eradiation via near-infrared light (NIR), but also promotes vascularized osseointegration via cooperation of copper ion with rGO. In vitro and in vivo data showed that coupling CuS and rGO synergistically increased antibacterial efficacy of implants by 40 times and successfully destroyed bacterial biofilm upon NIR. Moreover, CuS/rGO decorated surface substantially improved bone marrow stromal cell adhesion, proliferation, as well as subsequent differentiation toward osteoblast. We also revealed that enhanced peri-implant vascularization may be attributed to the sustained release of copper ion from CuS NPs, which further collaborated with rGO to promote vascularized osseointegration. Altogether, this novel orthobiologics-free approach offers a practical alternative to circumvent the intrinsic drawbacks of PTT and endows powerful antibacterial and pro-osteogenic capacities for implant associated infections.

Abstract
The design and development of a smart bioadhesive hydrogel sealant with self-healing and excellent antibacterial activity to achieve high wound closure effectiveness and post-wound-closure care is highly desirable in clinical applications. In this work, a series of adhesive antioxidant antibacterial self-healing hydrogels with promising traits were designed through dual-dynamic-bond cross-linking among ferric iron (Fe), protocatechualdehyde (PA) containing catechol and aldehyde groups and quaternized chitosan (QCS) to enable the closure of skin incisions and promotion of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected wound healing. The dual-dynamic-bond cross-linking of a pH-sensitive coordinate bond (catechol-Fe) and dynamic Schiff base bonds with reversible breakage and re-formation equips the hydrogel with excellent autonomous healing and on-demand dissolution or removal properties. Additionally, the hydrogel presents injectability, good biocompatibility and antibacterial activity, multifunctional adhesiveness, and hemostasis as well as NIR responsiveness. The in vivo evaluation in a rat skin incision model and infected full-thickness skin wound model revealed the high wound closure effectiveness and post-wound-closure care of the smart hydrogels, demonstrating its great potential in dealing with skin incisions and infected full-thickness skin wounds.

Abstract
Bacterial infections caused by biofilms are severe clinical problems, resulting in high drug resistance by limiting the penetration of antibiotics. Herein, a near-infrared (NIR)-activated chem/photodynamic/photothermal combined therapeutic agent is proposed by loading fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), ultrasmall copper sulfide nanoparticles (Cu2-xSNPs), and ε-polylysine (PLL) onto mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) through a layer-by-layer self-assembly approach. FITC-doped MSNs are prepared to monitor the permeability and accumulation of nanocomposites into biofilms. MSNs can also act as hosts for the synthesis of ultrasmall Cu2-xSNPs, which has effective photodynamic and photothermal ablation against bacteria under NIR light irradiation. Moreover, biodegradable PLL introduced can not only enhance adhesion toward the bacterial surface to increase the effectiveness of phototherapy but also damage bacteria through electrostatic interaction. As a result, the prepared nanocomposites could not only penetrate biofilms but also ablate biofilms through combined chem/photodynamic/photothermal effects under NIR light irradiation. Furthermore, the nanocomposites could treat bacterial infections in vivo with negligible tissue toxicity. Overall, the finely designed nanocomposites are anticipated to display promising applications in imaging-guided chem/photodynamic/photothermal combined therapy for bacterial infections.

Abstract
Incurable bacterial infections, impenetrable microbial biofilm, and irreversible antibiotic resistance are among the most dangerous threats for humans. With few effective strategies available in antimicrobial and antibiofilm development, innovative methodologies inspired by the advances in other fields such as nanomedicine are becoming more and more attractive to realize innovative antibacterial agents. Herein, a 2D niobium carbide (Nb2C) MXene titanium plate (Nb2C@TP)-based clinical implant with practical multimodal anti-infection functions was developed. Such emerging modes are capable of destroying biofilms for direct bacteria elimination through down-regulating bacterial energy metabolism pathways, suppressing biofilm formation, and enhancing as-formed biofilm detachment via an activating accessory gene regulator. Another intriguing feature of this nanomedicine is the sensitization ability toward bacteria via photothermal transduction, which reduces the temperature necessary for bacteria eradication and mitigates possible normal tissue damage. Moreover, the Nb2C@TP medical implant is able to alleviate proinflammatory responses by scavenging excessive reactive oxygen species in infectious microenvironments, benefiting angiogenesis and tissue remodeling.
