Abstract
Joint kinematic instability, arising from congenital or acquired musculoskeletal pathoanatomy or from imbalances in anabolism and catabolism induced by pathophysiological factors, leads to deterioration of the composition, structure and function of cartilage and, ultimately, progression to osteoarthritis (OA). Alongside articular cartilage degeneration, synovial fluid lubricity decreases in OA owing to a reduction in the concentration and molecular weight of hyaluronic acid and surface-active mucinous glycoproteins that form a lubricating film over the articulating joint surfaces. Minimizing friction between articulating joint surfaces by lubrication is fundamental for decreasing hyaline cartilage wear and for maintaining the function of synovial joints. Augmentation with highly viscous supplements (that is, viscosupplementation) offers one approach to re-establishing the rheological and tribological properties of synovial fluid in OA. However, this approach has varied clinical outcomes owing to limited intra-articular residence time and ineffective mechanisms of chondroprotection. This Review discusses normal hyaline cartilage function and lubrication and examines the advantages and disadvantages of various strategies for restoring normal joint lubrication. These strategies include contemporary viscosupplements that contain antioxidants, anti-inflammatory drugs or platelet-rich plasma and new synthetic synovial fluid additives and cartilage matrix enhancers. Advanced biomimetic tribosupplements offer promise for mitigating cartilage wear, restoring joint function and, ultimately, improving patient care.

Abstract
Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCEs) are a class of shape-changing polymers with exceptional mechanical properties and potential as artificial muscles/polymer actuators. In this study, multifunctional LCE actuators with strain sensing and joule heating responsivity are developed. LCEs are successfully synthesized using the thiol-ene two-staged michael addition polymerization (TMAP) method. The LCE films are further functionalized via sequential polydopamine (PDA) and silver electroless coating. It is found that the PDA coating enabled the anchoring of the Ag particles to the LCE, thereby enabling the electrical conductivity of the Ag-LCEs (<0.1 Ω cm-1). The studies confirm that the Ag/PDA coated LCEs can sense up to ≈30% strain, sense their own actuation strokes, and actuate at a rate of 1.83% s-1 while lifting a weight ≈50 times its mass in response to a 12 V 2A DC current.

Abstract
Controlling bleeding by applying pressing cotton gauze is the most facile treatment in prehospital emergencies. However, the wettable nature of cotton fibers leads to unnecessary blood loss due to excessive blood absorption, inseparable adhesion-induced pain, and pliable to infection. Here, a kind of ultra-hydrophobic haemostatic anti-adhesive gauze whose surface is loaded with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and hydrophobic-modified cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), achieving a water contact angle of ≈160° is developed. It is demonstrated that the mechanism by which hydrophobic CNCs promote blood clotting is associated with their ability to activate coagulation factors, contributing to fibrin formation, and promoting platelet activation. The blood-restricting effect results from the low surface energy layer formed by PDMS and then the alkyl chains of hydrophobic CNCs are combined. The produced ultra-hydrophobic gauze resists blood flow and diffusion, decreases blood loss, is effortlessly peelable, and minimizes pathogen adhesion. Compared to the commercial cotton gauze, this gauze achieved effective haemostasis and antiadhesion by reducing blood loss by more than 90%, shortening haemostasis time by more than 75%, lowering peeling force by more than 90% and minifying bacterium attachment by more than 95%. This work presents promising applications in terms of prehospital first aid.

Abstract
Hydrogels possessing both conductive characteristics and notable antibacterial and antioxidant properties hold considerable significance within the realm of wound healing and recovery. The object of current study is the development of conductive hydrogels with antibacterial and antioxidant properties, emphasizing their potential for effective wound healing, especially in treating third-degree burns. For this purpose, various conductive hydrogels are developed based on tragacanth and silk fibroin, with variable dopamine functionalized carboxyl-capped aniline pentamer (CAP@DA). The FTIR analysis confirms that the CAP powder was successfully synthesized and modified with DA. The results show that the incorporation of CAP@DA into hydrogels can increase the porosity and swellability of the hydrogels. Additionally, the mechanical and viscoelastic properties of the hydrogels are also improved. The release of vancomycin from the hydrogels is sustained over time, and the hydrogels are effective in inhibiting the growth of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In vitro cell studies of the hydrogels show that all hydrogels are biocompatible and support cell attachment. The hydrogels' tissue adhesiveness yielded a satisfactory hemostatic outcome in a rat-liver injury model. The third-degree burn was created on the dorsal back paravertebral region of the rats and then grafted with hydrogels. The burn was monitored for 3, 7, and 14 days to evaluate the efficacy of the hydrogel in promoting wound healing. The hydrogels revealed treatment effect, resulting in enhancements in wound closure, dermal collagen matrix production, new blood formation, and anti-inflammatory properties. Better results were obtained for hydrogel with increasing CAP@DA. In summary, the multifunctional conducive hydrogel, featuring potent antibacterial properties, markedly facilitated the wound regeneration process.

Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) is a widely used anchoring layer for multiple purposes. While simple to prepare, PDA is characterized by high chemical and topological diversity, which can limit its versatility. Unraveling the formation mechanism and physicochemical properties of continuous confluent layer and adherent nanoparticles on the nanoscale is crucial to further extend the prospective applications of PDA. Utilizing nano-FTIR spectroscopy, we investigate layers of PDA on three different substrates (silicon/silicon dioxide, nitrogen-doped titanium oxide, and gold substrates) at varying times of deposition (ToD). We observed a good correlation between the nano-FTIR and macroscopic FTIR spectra that reflected the changes in the relative abundance of PDA and polymerization intermediates as ToD increased. To gain analytical power, we utilized the principal component analysis (PCA) and extracted additional information from the resulting loadings spectral curves and data distribution in the score plots. We revealed a higher variability of the spectra of ultrathin surface confluent layers compared to the adherent nanoparticles. While the spectra of nanoparticles showed no apparent dependency on either ToD or the substrate material, the spectra of layers were highly affected by the increasing ToD and exhibited a rise in the absorption of PDA. Concomitantly, the spectra of layers grouped according to the substrate material at the lowest ToD point to the fact that the substrate material affects the PDA's initial physicochemical structure. The observed separation gradually diminished with the increasing ToD as the PDA physicochemical structure became less influenced by the substrate material.

Abstract
Medical device-associated infection remains a critical problem in the healthcare setting. Different clinical- or device-related methods have been attempted to reduce the infection rate. Among these approaches, creating a surface with bactericidal cationic functionality has been proposed. To do so, a sophisticated multi-step chemical procedure would be needed. Instead, a simple immersion approach was utilized in this investigation to render the titanium and polypropylene surface with the quaternary ammonium functionality by using a mussel-inspired novel lab-synthesized biomimetic catechol-terminated polymer, PQA-C8. The chemical oxidants, CuSO4/H2O2, as well as dopamine, were added into the novel PQA-C8 polymer immersion solution for one-step surface modification. Additionally, a two-step immersion scheme, in which the polypropylene substrate was first immersed in the dopamine solution and then in the PQA-C8 solution, was also attempted. Surface analysis results indicated the surface characteristics of the modified substrates were affected by the immersion solution formulation as well as the procedure utilized. The antibacterial assay has shown the titanium substrates modified by the one-step dopamine + PQA-C8 mixtures with the oxidants added and the polypropylene modified by the two-step scheme exhibited bacterial reduction percentages greater than 90% against both Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli and these antibacterial substrates were non-cytotoxic.

Abstract
Overcoming bacterial infections and promoting wound healing are significant challenges in clinical practice and fundamental research. This study developed a series of enzymatic crosslinking injectable hydrogels based on silk fibroin (SF), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and agarose, with the addition of polydopamine functionalized graphene oxide (GO@PDA) to endow the hydrogel with suitable conductivity and antimicrobial activity. The hydrogels exhibited suitable gelation time, stable mechanical and rheological properties, high water absorbency, and hemostatic properties. Biocompatibility was also confirmed through various assays. After loading the antibiotic vancomycin hydrochloride, the hydrogels showed sustained release and good antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The fast gelation time and desirable tissue-covering ability of the hydrogels allowed for a good hemostatic effect in a rat liver trauma model. In a rat full-thickness burn wound model, the hydrogels exhibited an excellent treatment effect, leading to significantly enhanced wound closure, collagen deposition, and granulation tissue formation, as well as neovascularization and anti-inflammatory effects. In conclusion, the antibacterial electroactive injectable hydrogel dressing, with its multifunctional properties, significantly promoted the in vivo wound healing process, making it an excellent candidate for full-thickness skin wound healing.

Abstract
Membrane surface treatment to modify anti-(bio)fouling resistivity plays a key role in membrane technology. This paper reports on the successful use of air-stimulated surface polymerization of dopamine hydrochloride incorporated ZnO nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) for impeding the intrinsic hydrophobicity and low anti-(bio)fouling resistivity of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) hollow-fiber membranes (HFMs). The study involved the use of pristine and polydopamine (Pdopa) coated PTFE HFMs, both with and without the presence of an air supply and added ZnO NPs. Zeta potential measurements were performed to evaluate the dispersion stability of ZnO NPs prior to immobilization, while morphological characterization and time-dependency of the Pdopa growth layer were illustrated through scanning electron microscopy. Pdopa surface polymerization and ZnO NPs immobilization were confirmed using FT-IR and EDX spectroscopy. Transformation of the PTFE HFM surface features to superhydrophilic was demonstrated through water contact angle analysis and the stability of immobilized ZnO NPs assessed by ICP analysis. Anti-fouling criteria and (bio)fouling resistivity performance of the surface-modified membranes were assessed through flux recovery determination of bovine serum albumin in dead-end filtration as well as dynamic-contact-condition microbial evaluation against Staphylococcus spp. and Escherichia coli, respectively. The filtration recovery ratio and antimicrobial results suggested promising surface modification impacts on the anti-fouling properties of PTFE HFM. As such, the method represents the first successful use of air-stimulated Pdopa coating incorporating ZnO NPs to induce superhydrophilic PTFE HFM surface modification. Such a method can be extended to the other membranes associated with water treatment processes.

Abstract
In this work, we show how to obtain internal monodispersed gold nanoparticles inside polydopamine (PDA) nanospheres that are also externally decorated with gold. The number of internal nanoparticles is affected by the size of the PDA nanosphere used, and the lower limit in the number of gold nanoparticles in the center of decorated nanospheres, one single gold nanoparticle, has been reached. In addition, extensive molecular dynamics simulations of PDA nanospheres based on four different chemical motifs, in the presence of water and with different sizes, have been performed to gain insight into the arrangements capable of accommodating cavities. In particular, PDA nanospheres based on pyranoacridinotrione (PYR) units provide good agreement with the experimental attainment of internal metal nanoparticles. In these, the stacking of PYR units leads to a particular morphology, with large portions of space occupied by the solvent, that would explain the observed formation of gold nanoparticles inside the PDA nanosphere.

Abstract
Currently, tumor treatments are characterized by intelligence, diversity and personalization, but the therapeutic reagents used are often limited in clinical efficacy due to problems with water solubility, targeting, stability and multidrug resistance. To remedy these shortcomings, the application of multifunctional nanotechnology in the biomedical field has been widely studied. Synthetic melanin nanoparticles (MNPs) surfaces which contain highly reactive chemical groups such as carboxyl, hydroxyl and amine groups, can be used as a reaction platform on which to graft different functional components. In addition, MNPs easily adhere to substrate surface, and serve as a secondary reaction platform to modify it. The multifunctionality and intrinsic biocompatibility make melanin-like nanoparticles promising as a multifunctional and powerful nanoplatform for oncological applications. This paper first reviews the preparation methods, polymerization mechanisms and physicochemical properties of melanin including natural melanin and chemically synthesized melanin to guide scholars in MNP-based design. Then, recent advances in MNPs especially synthetic polydopamine (PDA) melanin for various medical oncological applications are systematically and thoroughly described, mainly focusing on bioimaging, photothermal therapy (PTT), and drug delivery for tumor therapy. Finally, based on the investigated literature, the current challenges and future directions for clinical translation are reasonably discussed, focusing on the innovative design of MNPs and further elucidation of pharmacokinetics. This paper is a timely and comprehensive and detailed study of the progress of MNPs in tumor therapy, especially PTT, and provides ideas for the design of personalized and customizable oncology nanomedicines to address the heterogeneity of the tumor microenvironment.

Abstract
Synthetic bone repair materials are becoming increasingly popular in tissue engineering as a replacement for autografts and human/animal-based bone grafts. The biomedical application requires precise control over the material composition and structure, as well as over the size of granulate used for filling the bone defects, as the pore size and interconnectivity affect the regeneration process. This paper proposes a process of alloplastic and biodegradable polylactic acid/β-tricalcium phosphate granulates preparation and its parameters described. Using solvent-induced phase separation technique, porous spheres have been obtained in various sizes and morphologies. The design of the experiment's approach generated an experimental plan for further statistical modeling using the resulting data. The statistical modeling approach to the data from conducting a designed set of experiments allowed analysis of the influence of process parameters on the properties of the resulting granules. We confirmed that the content of β-tricalcium phosphate plays the most significant role in the size distribution of prepared granulate. The shape of the particles becomes less spherical with higher phosphate concentration in the emulsion. The proposed technique allows preparing porous granulates in the 0.2-1.8 mm diameter range, where granules' mean diameter and sphericity are tunable with polymer and phosphate concentrations. The granulate created a potentially implantable scaffold for resected bone regeneration, as cytotoxicity tests assured the material is non-cytotoxic in vitro, and human mesenchymal stem cells have been cultured on the surface of granulates. Results from cell cultures seeded on the Resomer LR 706S granulates were the most promising.

Abstract
Metal-phenolic networks (MPNs), which are formed by phenolic molecules and metal ions via coordination bonds, are emerging as highly templated functional metal-organic materials. These networks are mostly used in the form of particles for short-term in vivo drug delivery; however, there is a lack of research on durable and stable MPN hollow particles as delivery carriers for in vitro applications. In this study, hollow and yolk-like hybrid cubic MPNs were prepared by etching zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) with proanthocyanidins (PCs). Polydopamine (PDA) resulting from the oxidative self-polymerisation of dopamine was deposited on the surface of the fabricated MPN to obtain a PDA coating, which enhanced the mechanical properties of the MPN. The prepared ZnII-PC/PDA capsules consisted of two layers: a ZnII-PC layer and a PDA-PDA layer. It showed stability at 25 ℃ for at least 280 days after freeze-drying. Moreover, when loaded with carvacrol, this MPN exhibited an enhanced antibacterial performance. Therefore, this study lays the foundation for the use of MPNs as long-lasting functional carriers.

Abstract
The biomaterials’ success within the tissue engineering field is hinged on the capability to regulate tissue and cell responses, comprising cellular adhesion, as well as repair and immune processes’ induction. In an attempt to enhance and fulfill these biomaterials’ functions, scholars have been inspired by nature; in this regard, surface modification via coating the biomaterials with polydopamine is one of the most successful inspirations endowing the biomaterials with surface adhesive properties. By employing this approach, favorable results have been achieved in various tissue engineering-related experiments, a significant one of which is the more rapid cellular growth observed on the polydopamine-coated substrates compared to the untreated ones; nonetheless, some considerations regarding polydopamine-coated surfaces should be taken into account to control the ultimate outcomes. In this mini-review, the importance of coatings in the tissue engineering field, the different types of surfaces requiring coatings, the significance of polydopamine coatings, critical factors affecting the result of the coating procedure, and recent investigations concerning applications of polydopamine-coated biomaterials in tissue engineering are thoroughly discussed.

Abstract
Nano-hydroxylapatite (nano-HAP)/polycaprolactone (PCL) composite scaffold is proved to possess great potential for bone tissue engineering application since the biocompatibility of PCL and the osteoinduction ability of nano-HAP. However, the interfacial bonding between nano-HAP and PCL is weak by reason of the difference in thermodynamic properties. Herein, nano-HAP was modified by polydopamine (PDA) and then added to the PCL matrix to enhance their interface bonding in bone scaffold manufactured by selective laser sintering (SLS). The results indicated that PDA acted as an interfacial molecular bridge between PCL and nano-HAP. On one hand, the amino groups of PDA formed hydrogen bonding with the hydroxyl groups of nano-HAP, and on the other hand, the catechol groups of PDA formed hydrogen bonding with the ester groups of PCL. Compared with the HAP/PCL scaffolds, the tensile and compressive strength of the P-HAP/PCL scaffolds loading 12 wt% P-HAP were increased by 10% and 16%, respectively. Meanwhile, the scaffold possessed great bioactivity and cytocompatibility that could accelerate the formation of apatite layers and promote the cell adhesion, proliferation and differentiation.

Specific and Sensitive Detection of Tartrazine on the Electrochemical Interface of a Molecularly Imprinted Polydopamine-Coated PtCo Nanoalloy on Graphene Oxide. BIOSENSORS 2022; 12:bios12050326.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical sensor designed to recognize and detect tartrazine (TZ) was constructed based on a molecularly imprinted polydopamine (MIPDA)-coated nanocomposite of platinum cobalt (PtCo) nanoalloy-functionalized graphene oxide (GO). The nanocomposites were characterized and the TZ electrochemical detection performance of the sensor and various reference electrodes was investigated. Interestingly, the synergistic effect of the strong electrocatalytic activity of the PtCo nanoalloy-decorated GO and the high TZ recognition ability of the imprinted cavities of the MIPDA coating resulted in a large and specific response to TZ. Under the optimized conditions, the sensor displayed linear response ranges of 0.003–0.180 and 0.180–3.950 µM, and its detection limit was 1.1 nM (S/N = 3). The electrochemical sensor displayed high anti-interference ability, good stability, and adequate reproducibility, and was successfully used to detect TZ in spiked food samples. Comparison of important indexes of this sensor with those of previous electrochemical sensors for TZ revealed that this sensor showed improved performance. This surface-imprinted sensor provides an ultrasensitive, highly specific, effective, and low-cost method for TZ determination in foodstuffs.
