Abstract
In conventional clinical disease diagnosis and screening based on biomarker detection, most analysis samples are collected from serum, blood. However, these invasive collection methods require specific instruments, professionals, and may lead to infection risks. Additionally, the diagnosis process suffers from untimely results. The identification of skin-related biomarkers plays an unprecedented role in early disease diagnosis. More importantly, these skin-mediated approaches for collecting biomarker-containing biofluid samples are noninvasive or minimally invasive, which is more preferable for point-of-care testing (POCT). Therefore, skin-based biomarker detection patches have been promoted, owing to their unique advantages, such as simple fabrication, desirable transdermal properties and no requirements for professional medical staff. Currently, the skin biomarkers extracted from sweat, interstitial fluid (ISF) and wound exudate, are achieved with wearable sweat patches, transdermal MN patches, and wound patches, respectively. In this review, we detail these three types of skin patches in biofluids collection and diseases-related biomarkers identification. Patch classification and the corresponding manufacturing as well as detection strategies are also summarized. The remaining challenges in clinical applications and current issues in accurate detection are discussed for further advancement of this technology (Scheme 1).

Abstract
Addressing the complex challenge of healing of bacterially infected wounds, this study explores the potential of lipid nanomaterials, particularly advanced ultradeformable particles (UDPs), to actively influence the wound microenvironment. The research introduces a novel therapeutic approach utilizing silver sulfadiazine (SSD) coupled with vitamin E (VE) delivered through UDPs (ethosomes/transferosomes/transethosomes). Comparative physicochemical characterization of these nanosized drug carriers reveals the superior stability of transethosomes, boasting a zeta potential of -36.5 mV. This method demonstrates reduced side effects compared to conventional therapies, with almost 90% SSD and 72% VE release achieved in wound pH in a sustained manner. Cytotoxicity assessment shows 60% cell viability even at the highest concentration (175 μg/mL), while hemolysis test demonstrates RBC lysis below 5% at a concentration of 250 μg/mL. Vitamin E-SSD-loaded transethosomes (VSTEs) significantly enhance cellular migration and proliferation, achieving 95% closure within 24 h, underscoring their promising efficacy. The synergistic method effectively reduces bacterial burden, evidenced by an 80% reduction in Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus within the wound microenvironment. This approach offers a promising strategy to address complications associated with skin injuries.

Abstract
Chronic wounds with bacterial infection present formidable clinical challenges. In this study, a versatile hydrogel dressing with antibacterial and angiogenic activity composite of silk fibroin (SF), chondroitin sulfate (CS), and graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) is fabricated. GOQDs@SF/CS (GSC) hydrogel is rapidly formed through the enzyme catalytic action of horseradish peroxidase. With the incorporation of GOQDs both gelation speed and mechanical properties have been enhanced, and the photothermal characteristics of GOQDs in GSC hydrogel enabled bacterial killing through photothermal treatment (PTT) at ∼51 °C. In vitro studies show that the GSC hydrogels demonstrate excellent antibacterial performance and induce type H vessel differentiation of endothelial cells via the activated ERK1/2 signaling pathway and upregulated SLIT3 expression. In vivo results show that the hydrogel significantly promotes type H vessels formation, which is related to the collagen deposition, epithelialization and, ultimately, accelerates the regeneration of infected skin defects. Collectively, this multifunctional GSC hydrogel, with dual action of antibacterial efficacy and angiogenesis promotion, emerges as an innovative skin dressing with the potential for advancing in infected wound healing.

Abstract
Skin wound healing is a complex and dynamic process involving hemostasis, inflammatory response, cell proliferation and migration, and angiogenesis. Currently used wound dressings remain unsatisfactory in the clinic due to the lack of adjustable mechanical property for injection operation and bioactivity for accelerating wound healing. In this work, an "all-sugar" hydrogel dressing is developed based on dynamic borate bonding network between the hydroxyl groups of okra polysaccharide (OP) and xyloglucan (XG). Benefiting from the reversible crosslinking network, the resulting composite XG/OP hydrogels exhibited good shear-thinning and fast self-healing properties, which is suitable to be injected at wound beds and filled into irregular injured site. Besides, the proposed XG/OP hydrogels showed efficient antioxidant capacity by scavenging DPPH activity of 73.9 %. In vivo experiments demonstrated that XG/OP hydrogels performed hemostasis and accelerated wound healing with reduced inflammation, enhanced collagen deposition and angiogenesis. This plant-derived dynamic hydrogel offers a facile and effective approach for wound management and has great potential for clinical translation in feature.

Abstract
Wound dressings (WDs) are an essential component of wound management and serve as an artificial barrier to isolate the injured site from the external environment, thereby helping to prevent exogenous infections and supporting healing. However, maintaining a moist wound environment, providing protection from infection, good biocompatibility, and allowing for gas exchange, remain a challenge in device design. Functional wound dressings (FWDs) prepared from hybrid biological macromolecule-based materials can enhance efficacy of these systems for skin wound management. This review aims to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art FWDs within the field of wound management, with a specific focus on hybrid biomaterials, techniques, and applications developed over the past five years. In addition, we highlight the incorporation of biological macromolecules in WDs, the emergence of smart WDs, and discuss the existing challenges and future prospects for the development of advanced WDs.

Abstract
Development of wound dressings with enhanced therapeutic properties is of great interest in the modern healthcare. In this study, a zein-based nanofibrous wound dressing containing curcumin as a therapeutic agent was fabricated through electrospinning technique. In order to achieve desirable properties, such as antibacterial characteristics, reduced contact angle, and enhanced mechanical properties, the layer-by-layer technique was used for coating the surfaces of drug-loaded nanofibers by sequentially incorporating poly (sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) as a polyanion and poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) as a polycation. Various analyses, including scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, drug release assessment., and mechanical tests were employed to assess the characteristics of the prepared wound dressings. Based on the results, coating with polyelectrolytes enhanced the Young's modulus and tensile strength of the electrospun mat from 1.34 MPa and 4.21 MPa to 1.88 MPa and 8.83 MPa, respectively. The coating also improved the controlled release of curcumin and antioxidant activity, while the outer layer, PDADMAC, exhibited antibacterial properties. The cell viability tests proved the appropriate biocompatibility of the prepared wound dressings. Moreover, our findings show that incorporation of the coating layers enhances cell migration and provides a favorable surface for cell attachment. According to the findings of this study, the fabricated nanofibrous wound dressing can be considered a promising and effective therapeutic intervention for wound management, facilitating the healing process.

Abstract
The skin is subject to damage from the surrounding environment. The repair of skin wounds can be very challenging due to several factors such as severe injuries, concomitant infections, or comorbidities such as diabetes. Different drugs and wound dressings have been used to treat skin wounds. Tissue engineering, a novel therapeutic approach, revolutionized the treatment and regeneration of challenging tissue damage. This field includes the use of synthetic and natural biomaterials that support the growth of tissues or organs outside the body. Accordingly, the demand for polymer-based therapeutic strategies for skin tissue defects is significantly increasing. Among the various 3D scaffolds used in tissue engineering, hydrogel scaffolds have gained special significance due to their unique properties such as natural mimicry of the extracellular matrix (ECM), moisture retention, porosity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and biocompatibility properties. First, this article delineates the process of wound healing and conventional methods of treating wounds. It then presents an examination of the structure and manufacturing methods of hydrogels, followed by an analysis of their crucial characteristics in healing skin wounds and the most recent advancements in using hydrogel dressings for this purpose. Finally, it discusses the potential future advancements in hydrogel materials within the realm of wound healing.

Abstract
Effective wound treatment has become one of the most important challenges for healthcare as it continues to be one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Therefore, wound care technologies significantly evolved in order to provide a holistic approach based on various designs of functional wound dressings. Among them, hydrogels have been widely used for wound treatment due to their biocompatibility and similarity to the extracellular matrix. The hydrogel formula offers the control of an optimal wound moisture level due to its ability to absorb excess fluid from the wound or release moisture as needed. Additionally, hydrogels can be successfully integrated with a plethora of biologically active components (e.g., nanoparticles, pharmaceuticals, natural extracts, peptides), thus enhancing the performance of resulting composite hydrogels in wound healing applications. In this review, the-state-of-the-art discoveries related to stimuli-responsive hydrogel-based dressings have been summarized, taking into account their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and hemostatic properties, as well as other effects (e.g., re-epithelialization, vascularization, and restoration of the tissue) resulting from their use.

Abstract
Infection poses a significant barrier to effective wound repair, leading to increased inflammatory responses that ultimately result in incomplete and prolonged wound healing. To address this challenge, numerous antibacterial ingredients have been incorporated into dressings to inhibit wound infection. Our previous work demonstrated that lysozyme/silver nanoparticles (LYZ/AgNPs) complexes, prepared using an eco-friendly one-step aqueous method, exhibited excellent antibacterial efficacy with favorable biosafety. To further explore its potential application in advancing wound healing, calcium alginate (CA) with good porosity, water absorption, and water retention capacities was formulated with LYZ/AgNPs to prepare composite sponge (CA/LYZ/AgNPs). As expected, in vivo experiments involving full-thickness skin wound and scald wound healing experiments demonstrated that CA-LYZ-AgNPs composite sponges with excellent biocompatibility exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria and fungi, and outperformed the wound healing process efficacy of other commercially available AgNPs-loaded wound dressings. In summary, this work introduces a CA/LYZ/AgNPs sponge featuring exceptional antibacterial efficacy and biocompatibility, thus holding promising potential in wound care applications.

Abstract
Wound infection often requires a long period of care and an onerous treatment process. Also, the rich environment makes the wound an ideal niche for microbial growth. Stable structures, like biofilm, and drug-resistant strains cause a delay in the healing process, which has become one of the important challenges in wound treatment. Many studies have focused on alternative methods to deal the wound infections. One of the novel and highly potential ways is mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). MSCs are mesoderm-derived pluripotent adult stem cells with the capacity for self-renewal, multidirectional differentiation, and immunological control. Also, MSCs have anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic effects. MScs, as pluripotent stromal cells, differentiate into many mature cells. Also, MSCs produce antimicrobial compounds, such as antimicrobial peptides (AMP), as well as secrete immune modulators, which are two basic features considered in wound healing. Despite the advantages, preserving the structure and activity of MSCs is considered one of the most important points in the treatment. MSCs' antimicrobial effects on microorganisms involved in wound infection have been confirmed in various studies. In this review, we aimed to discuss the antimicrobial and therapeutic applications of MSCs in the infected wound healing processes.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based photodynamic antibacterial (PDA) agents present a novel approach for addressing drug-resistant bacterial infections and the associated tissue damage. However, the suboptimal dispersibility, negative charge, and weak photocatalytic activity under visible light of TiO2 hinder its practical applications. This study aimed to address these limitations by developing a highly hydrophilic and dispersed Zn-TiO2/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) (HTGZ) nano-system with exceptional visible light catalytic activity and tissue repair ability. HTGZ produced an antibacterial ratio over 98% within a short time, likely due to the enhanced production of reactive oxygen species under visible light. After being co-cultured for 4 days, L929 cells and BMSCs maintained over 90% activity, indicating that HTGZ had no significant cytotoxicity. Furthermore, the transcriptomic and metabolic analyses revealed that the antibacterial mechanism mainly came from the destruction of cell membranes and the disruption of various metabolic processes, such as purine metabolism and fatty acid biosynthesis. Critically, results of in vivo experiments had authenticated that HTGZ significantly promoted infected tissue regeneration by slaughtering bacteria and release Zn2+. After 14 days, the wound area was only one-third that of the control group. Overall, the enhanced antibacterial efficacy and wound-healing potential position HTGZ as a promising nano-antibacterial medication for the clinical treatment of infectious bacterial diseases.

Abstract
A multi-layered scaffold can mimic the hierarchical structure of the skin, accelerate the wound healing, and protect the skin against contamination and infection. In this study, a three-layered (3L) scaffold was manufactured through a combination of 3D printing and electrospinning technique. A top layer of polyurethane (PU) nanofibrous coating for the prevention of micro-organism penetration was created through electrospining. The middle layer was prepared through the 3D printing of Pluronic F127-quaternized chitosan-silver nitrate nanoparticles (F127-QCS-AgNO3), as the porous absorbent and antibacterial layer. A bottom layer of core-shell nanofibrous structure of F127-mupirocin/pectin-keratin (F127-Mup/Pec-Kr) for tissue regeneration and enable antibacterial activity was coated onto the middle layer. A range of techniques were applied to fully characterize the resultant structure. The average tensile strength and elastic modulus of the 3L scaffold were measured as 0.65 ± 0.08 MPa and 9.37 ± 2.33 MPa, respectively. The release of Ag ions, mupirocin (Mup), and the antibacterial activity of the dressings was investigated. According to the results, the highest rate of cell adhesion and viability, and angiogenic potential among the studied samples were related to the 3L scaffold, which was also found to significantly accelerate the wound healing.

Abstract
Injectable antibacterial hydrogels have attracted considerable attention in wound management. However, the development of injectable hydrogels with excellent antibacterial activity, good biocompatibility, and strong tissue adhesion remains a challenge. In this study, an antibacterial tissue-adhesive hydrogel was developed based on a catalyst-free o-phthalaldehyde (OPA)/amine reaction by simply mixing OPA-terminated four-arm poly(ethylene glycol) (4aPEG-OPA) and ε-poly-l-lysine (ε-PLL) solutions. The hydrogel showed tunable gelation time, storage moduli, and degradation rate depending on the polymer concentration and 4aPEG-OPA/ε-PLL mass ratio. The hydrogel exhibited nearly 100% bacterial inhibition rates in-vitro against Gram-negative E. coli and Gram-positive S. aureus, while maintaining good biocompatibility. The hydrogel matched well in shape and tightly adhered to the tissue after in-situ formation at the wound sites. Following the treatment of rat models of full-thickness skin incisions and round wounds, the hydrogel effectively closed the wounds and promoted wound healing. Moreover, after administering to S. aureus infected full-thickness skin wounds, the hydrogel exhibited remarkable efficacy in inhibiting wound infection with a bacterial inhibition rate over 99.94%, achieving a significantly accelerated wound healing compared with the commercially available Prontosan® gel. Therefore, the hydrogel exhibits great potential as a wound dressing for infection prevention and promotion of healing.

Abstract
The skin serves as the primary barrier between the human body and external environment, and is therefore susceptible to damage from various factors. In response to this challenge, animal tissue-derived biomaterials have emerged as promising candidates for wound healing due to their abundant sources, low side-effect profiles, exceptional bioactivity, biocompatibility, and unique extracellular matrix (ECM) mimicry. The evolution of modern engineering technology and therapies has allowed these animal tissue-derived biomaterials to be transformed into various forms and modified to possess the necessary properties for wound repair. This review provides an overview of the wound healing process and the factors that influence it. We then describe the extraction methods, important properties, and recent practical applications of various animal tissue-derived biomaterials. Our focus then shifts to the critical properties of these biomaterials in skin wound healing and their latest research developments. Finally, we critically examine the limitations and future prospects of biomaterials generated from animal tissues in this field.

Abstract
Bacterial infections can significantly impede wound healing and pose a serious threat to the patient's life. The excessive use of antibiotics to combat bacterial infections has led to the emergence of multi-drug-resistant bacteria. Therefore, there is a pressing need for alternative approaches, such as photothermal therapy (PTT), to address this issue. In this study, for the first time, CuS NPs with photothermal properties were synthesized using sericin as a biological template, named CuS@Ser NPs. This method is simple, green, and does not produce toxic and harmful by-products. These nanoparticles were incorporated into a mixture (XK) of xanthan gum and konjac glucomannan (KGM) to obtain XK/CuS NPs composite hydrogel, which could overcome the limitations of current wound dressings. The composite hydrogel exhibited excellent mechanical flexibility, photothermal response, and biocompatibility. It also demonstrated potent antibacterial properties against both Gram-positive and negative bacteria via antibacterial experiments and accelerated wound healing in animal models. Additionally, it is proved that the hydrogel promoted tissue regeneration by stimulating collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and reducing inflammation. In summary, the XK/CuS NPs composite hydrogel presents a promising alternative for the clinical management of infected wounds, offering a new approach to promote infected wound healing.

Abstract
The growing impact of infections and the rapid emergence of antibiotic resistance represent a public health concern worldwide. The exponential development in the field of biomaterials and its multiple applications can offer a solution to the problems that derive from these situations. In this sense, antimicrobial hydrogels represent a promising opportunity with multiple translational expectations in the medical management of infectious diseases due to their unique physicochemical and biological properties as well as for drug delivery in specific areas. Hydrogels are three-dimensional cross-linked networks of hydrophilic polymers that can absorb and retain large amounts of water or biological fluids. Moreover, antimicrobial hydrogels (AMH) present good biocompatibility, low toxicity, availability, viscoelasticity, biodegradability, and antimicrobial properties. In the present review, we collect and discuss the most promising strategies in the development of AMH, which are divided into hydrogels with inherent antimicrobial activity and antimicrobial agent-loaded hydrogels based on their composition. Then, we present an overview of the main translational applications: wound healing, tissue engineering and regeneration, drug delivery systems, contact lenses, 3D printing, biosensing, and water purification.

Abstract
In recent years, drug manufacturers and researchers have begun to consider the nanobiotechnology approach to improve the drug delivery system for tumour and cancer diseases. In this article, we review current strategies to improve tumour and cancer drug delivery, which mainly focuses on sustaining biocompatibility, biodistribution, and active targeting. The conventional therapy using cornerstone drugs such as fludarabine, cisplatin etoposide, and paclitaxel has its own challenges especially not being able to discriminate between tumour versus normal cells which eventually led to toxicity and side effects in the patients. In contrast to the conventional approach, nanoparticle-based drug delivery provides target-specific delivery and controlled release of the drug, which provides a better therapeutic window for treatment options by focusing on the eradication of diseased cells via active targeting and sparing normal cells via passive targeting. Additionally, treatment of tumours associated with the brain is hampered by the impermeability of the blood-brain barriers to the drugs, which eventually led to poor survival in the patients. Nanoparticle-based therapy offers superior delivery of drugs to the target by breaching the blood-brain barriers. Herein, we provide an overview of the properties of nanoparticles that are crucial for nanotechnology applications. We address the potential future applications of nanobiotechnology targeting specific or desired areas. In particular, the use of nanomaterials, biostructures, and drug delivery methods for the targeted treatment of tumours and cancer are explored.

J Biomed Mater Res A 2023; 111:132-151. [PMID: 36205298 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.a.37453] [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: 06/16/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that magnesium oxide (MgO)-incorporated electrospun membranes show powerful antibacterial activity and promote wound healing, but the underlying mechanisms have not been entirely understood. Herein, we investigated the relationship between structure and function of MgO-incorporated membranes and interrogated critical bioactive cues that contribute to accelerated wound healing and functional restoration. Our results show that MgO-incorporated membranes exhibit good flexibility and improved water vapor transmission rates (WVTRs) and sustained Mg2+ release in a simulated model of wounds. MgO-incorporated membranes modulate macrophage phenotype to downregulate inflammatory response, contributing to alleviated inflammation and creating a favorable microenvironment for wound healing. Specifically, MgO-incorporated membranes stimulate macrophages to shift to a pro-healing M2 phenotype and upregulate pro-healing cytokine of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) and downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge conditions. Together with increased TGF-β1 by macrophages, MgO-incorporated membranes significantly boost the proliferation of fibroblasts and upregulate collagen production, thus driving granulation tissue formation and wound closure. MgO-incorporated membranes promote angiogenesis by promoting tube formation and upregulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production of endothelial cells. Rapid epithelialization of regenerated skin tissue is attributed to the balanced phenotype of keratinocytes between proliferative and terminally differentiated populations. In addition to coordinating keratinocyte phenotype, MgO-incorporated membranes reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1-alpha (IL-1α) therefore promoting hair follicle regeneration. These data provide mechanisms of MgO-incorporated membranes that inhibit bacterial infection, alleviate inflammation, facilitate extracellular matrix production and epithelialization, and potentiate hair follicle regeneration.

Antimicrobial Activity of Blow Spun PLA/Gelatin Nanofibers Containing Green Synthesized Silver Nanoparticles against Wound Infection-Causing Bacteria. BIOENGINEERING (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:bioengineering9100518.

Abstract
One of the main challenges in wound healing is the wound infection due to various causes, of which moisture is the most important reason. Owing to this fact, wound dressings that can collect wound moisture in addition to showing antibacterial properties have provided an important basis for wound healing research. In this study, gelatin and poly lactic acid (PLA) polymers were used in a wound dressing textile to provide gelation and structure strength properties, respectively. Meanwhile, silver nanoparticles (SNPs) synthesized through the green method were integrated into these fibers to provide the formed textile with antibacterial properties. Nanoparticles were made using donkey dung extract, and nanofibers were produced by the solution blow spinning method which has high production efficiency and low energy consumption among spinning methods. The produced nanoparticles were characterized and evaluated by UV-Vis, DLS, XRD, and FTIR methods, and the production of silver nanoparticles that were coated with metabolites in the extract was proven. In addition, the morphology and diameter of the resulted fibers and presence of nanoparticles were confirmed by the SEM method. The size and size distribution of the synthesized fibers were determined through analyzing SEM results. Gelatin nanofibers demonstrated a mean size of 743 nm before and 773 nm after nanoparticle coating. PLA nanofibers demonstrated a mean size of 57 nm before and 182 nm after nanoparticle coating. Finally, 335 nm was the mean diameter size of gelatin/PLA/SNPs nanofibers. Also, the textiles synthesized by PLA and gelatin which contained silver nanoparticles showed higher antibacterial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative species compared to PLA and gelatin tissues without nanoparticles. Cytotoxicity test on L929 cells showed that silver nanoparticles incorporated textiles of PLA and gelatin show a very low level and non-significant toxicity compared to the free particles.

Abstract
Infectious cutaneous wounds are a thorny clinical problem. The microenvironment of the infectious wound is complicated and changes at different healing stages. Traditional treatments either have a single effect such as anti-inflammation, antibacteria, or angiogenesis or a simple mixture of several functions. They fail to deal with the change of the physiological healing process, leading to unsatisfactory outcomes. Herein, we have designed a logic-based smart nanoplatform (named as ZEM), aiming to self-monitor the wound microenvironment and accordingly react to the changes of the healing process, fitting multiple needs of physiological repair at different stages. ZEM was synthesized using zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) coated with an epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)/Mg2+ complex. We characterized ZEM in the aspects of morphology, physical and chemical properties, and ion release pattern. At the initial stage, ZEM sensed the weakly acidic environment and responsively released a large number of zinc ions to eliminate bacterial infection. Then came the second inflammation stage, where ZEM responded to the oxidative stress of the local wound area with EGCG absorbing excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), contributing to the downregulation of intracellular ROS. Meanwhile, local inflammation was alleviated by reducing the expression of proinflammatory M1 phenotype factors (IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β). Since the balance of local ROS had been achieved, the resulting disintegration of the EGCG/Mg2+ complex gave rise to the sustainable release of Mg2+ at the proliferation stage, promoting vascularized healing. In vivo animal experiments further proved the diagnostic and therapeutic functions of ZEM. All these results demonstrated that ZEM was a promising treatment strategy in soft tissue engineering.

Abstract
Antibacterial hydrogel has excellent antibacterial property and good biocompatibility, water absorption and water retention, swelling, high oxygen permeability, etc.; therefore, it widely applied in biomedicine, intelligent textiles, cosmetics, and other fields, especially for medical dressing. As a wound dressing, the antibacterial hydrogel has the characteristics of absorbing wound liquid, controlling drug release, being non-toxic, being without side effects, and not causing secondary injury to the wound. Its preparation method is simple, and can crosslink via covalent or non-covalent bond, such as γ-radiation croFsslinking, free radical polymerization, graft copolymerization, etc. The raw materials are easy to obtain; usually these include chondroitin sulfate, sodium alginate, polyvinyl alcohol, etc., with different raw materials being used for different antibacterial modes. According to the hydrogel matrix and antibacterial mode, the preparation method, performance, antibacterial mechanism, and classification of antibacterial hydrogels are summarized in this paper, and the future development direction of the antibacterial hydrogel as wound dressing is proposed.

Abstract
As the first defensive line between the human body and the outside world, the skin is vulnerable to damage from the external environment. Skin wounds can be divided into acute wounds (mechanical injuries, chemical injuries and surgical wounds, etc.) and chronic wounds (burns, infections, diabetes, etc.). In order to manage skin wound, a variety of wound dressings have been developed, including gauze, films, foams, nanofibers, hydrocolloids and hydrogels. Recently, hydrogels have received much attention because of their natural extracellular matrix (ECM)-mimik structure, tunable mechanical properties, and facile bioactive substance delivery capability. They show great potential application in skin wound repair. This paper first introduces the anatomy and function of the skin, the process of wound healing and conventional wound dressings, and then introduces the composition and construction methods of hydrogels. Next, this paper introduces the necessary properties of hydrogels in skin wound repair and the latest research progress of hydrogel dressings for skin wound repair. Finally, the future development goals of hydrogel materials in the field of wound healing are proposed. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
In the present study, polymer sponges based on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were prepared for the topical wound administration of chloramphenicol (CHL), an antibiotic widely used to treat bacterial infections. Nanocellulose fibrils (CNF) were homogenously dispersed in PVA sponges in three different ratios (2.5, 5, and 10 wt %) to improve the mechanical properties of neat PVA sponges. Infrared spectroscopy showed hydrogen bond formation between CNF and PVA, while scanning electron microscopy photos verified the successful dispersion of CNF to PVA sponges. The addition of CNF successfully enhanced the mechanical properties of PVA sponges, exhibiting higher compressive strength as the content of CNF increased. The PVA sponge containing 10 wt % CNF, due to its higher compression strength, was further studied as a matrix for CHL delivery in 10, 20, and 30 wt % concentration of the drug. X-ray diffraction showed that CHL was encapsulated in an amorphous state in the 10 and 20 wt % samples, while some crystallinity was observed in the 30 wt % ratio. In vitro dissolution studies showed enhanced CHL solubility after its incorporation in PVA/10 wt % CNF sponges. Release profiles showed a controlled release lasting three days for the sample containing 10 wt % CHL and 1.5 days for the other two samples. According to modelling, the release is driven by a pseudo-Fickian diffusion.

Abstract
The universal increase in the number of patients with nonhealing skin wounds imposes a huge social and economic burden on the patients and healthcare systems. Although, the application of traditional wound dressings contributes to an effective wound healing outcome, yet, the complexity of the healing process remains a major health challenge. Recent advances in materials and fabrication technologies have led to the fabrication of dressings that provide proper conditions for effective wound healing. The 3D-printed wound dressings, biomolecule-loaded dressings, as well as smart and flexible bandages are among the recent alternatives that have been developed to accelerate wound healing. Additionally, the new generation of wound dressings contains a variety of microelectronic sensors for real-time monitoring of the wound environment and is able to apply required actions to support the healing progress. Moreover, advances in manufacturing flexible microelectronic sensors enable the development of the next generation of wound dressing substrates, known as electronic skin, for real-time monitoring of the whole physiochemical markers in the wound environment in a single platform. The current study reviews the importance of smart wound dressings as an emerging strategy for wound care management and highlights different types of smart dressings for promoting the wound healing process.

Abstract
Photo-electronic devices based on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation suffer a crucial limitation in wound treatment due to their sandwich structure, which prevents the contact of ROS with wound tissue. In this work, the first anti-sandwich structured visible-light/electricity dual-responsive wound dressing is constructed for treatment of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), based on selenoviologen-appendant polythiophene (SeV2+ -PT)-containing polyacrylamide hydrogels. The new wound dressing is named an anti-sandwich structured photo-electronic wound dressing (PEWD). The unique structure of PEWD enables its use in synergistic electrodynamic and photodynamic therapy (EDT and PDT), providing rapid, on-demand, and sustained generation of ROS in situ via short-time light irradiation and/or wireless-controlled electrification. The PEWD possesses good flexibility, excellent biocompatibility, and fast response, as well as sustained ROS generation in a physiological environment. Animal experiments demonstrate effective ROS generation in 6 s under irradiation and electrification, inhibiting infection at an early stage, and substantially shortening the healing time of bacterial infection (to within 7 days). This proof-of-concept research holds great promise in developing new flexible PEWD, and novel strategies to improve wound treatment.
