Abstract
Inspired by the unique functionalities of biomolecular membraneless organelles (MLOs) formed via liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) and nucleic acids, a great deal of effort has been devoted to devising phase-separated artificial subcellular dynamic compartments. These endeavors aim to unravel the molecular mechanism underlying the formation and intracellular delivery of susceptible macromolecular therapeutics. We report herein pyroglutamic acid (PGA)-based well-defined homopolymers featuring stimuli-tunable reversible self-coacervation ability. The polymer exhibits an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) transition in aqueous solutions and has the propensity to undergo cooling-induced LLPS, producing micrometer-sized liquid droplets. This phase separation phenomenon could be modulated by various factors, including polymer concentration, chain length, solution pH, and types and concentrations of different additives. These micrometer droplets are thermally reversible and encapsulate a wide variety of cargoes, including small hydrophobic fluorescent molecules, hydrophilic anticancer drugs, and fluorophore-labeled macromolecular proteins (bovine serum albumin and lysozyme). The payloads were released by exploiting the thermo/pH-mediated disassembly behavior of the coacervates, preserving the bioactivity of the sensitive therapeutics. This environmentally responsive, simple yet versatile artificial MLO model system will provide insights into the biomolecular nonionic condensates and pave the way for the de novo design of dynamic biomolecule depots.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC), an immune-mediated chronic inflammatory disease, drastically impacts patients' quality of life and increases their risk of colorectal cancer worldwide. However, effective oral targeted delivery and retention of drugs in colonic lesions are still great challenges in the treatment of UC. Coacervate microdroplets, formed by liquid-liquid phase separation, are recently explored in drug delivery as the simplicity in fabrication, spontaneous enrichment on small molecules and biological macromolecules, and high drug loading capacity. Herein, in this study, a biocompatible diethylaminoethyl-dextran hydrochloride/sodium polyphenylene sulfonate coacervates, coated with eudragit S100 to improve the stability and colon targeting ability, named EU-Coac, is developed. Emodin, an active ingredient in traditional Chinese herbs proven to alleviate UC symptoms, is loaded in EU-Coac (EMO@EU-Coac) showing good stability in gastric acid and pepsin and pH-responsive release behavior. After oral administration, EMO@EU-Coac can effectively target and retain in the colon, displaying good therapeutic effects on UC treatment through attenuating inflammation and oxidative stress response, repairing colonic epithelia, as well as regulating intestinal flora balance. In short, this study provides a novel and facile coacervate microdroplet delivery system for UC treatment.

Abstract
Ultra-low temperature resistant adhesive is highly desired yet scarce for material adhesion for the potential usage in Arctic/Antarctic or outer space exploration. Here we develop a solvent-free processed low-temperature tolerant adhesive with excellent adhesion strength and organic solvent stability, wide tolerable temperature range (i.e. -196 to 55 °C), long-lasting adhesion effect ( > 60 days, -196 °C) that exceeds the classic commercial hot melt adhesives. Furthermore, combine experimental results with theoretical calculations, the strong interaction energy between polyoxometalate and polymer is the main factor for the low-temperature tolerant adhesive, possessing enhanced cohesion strength, suppressed polymer crystallization and volumetric contraction. Notably, manufacturing at scale can be easily achieved by the facile scale-up solvent-free processing, showing much potential towards practical application in Arctic/Antarctic or planetary exploration.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex physiological process involving hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and tissue remodeling. Therefore, there is an urgent need for suitable wound dressings for effective and systematical wound management. Polypeptide-based hydrogel bio-adhesives offer unique advantages and are ideal candidates. However, comprehensive reviews on polypeptide-based hydrogel bio-adhesives for wound healing are still lacking. In this review, the physiological mechanisms and evaluation parameters of wound healing were first described in detail. Then, the working principles of hydrogel bio-adhesives were summarized. Recent advances made in multifunctional polypeptide-based hydrogel bio-adhesives involving gelatin, silk fibroin, fibrin, keratin, poly-γ-glutamic acid, ɛ-poly-lysine, serum albumin, and elastin with pro-healing activities in wound healing and tissue repair were reviewed. Finally, the current status, challenges, developments, and future trends of polypeptide-based hydrogel bio-adhesives were discussed, hoping that further developments would be stimulated to meet the growing needs of their clinical applications.

Abstract
Historically, research on silicotungstic-acid-based hydrogels has primarily focused on their adhesive properties, often at the expense of mechanical strength (cohesion). In this study, we present a novel approach to fabricate a polysaccharide hydrogel that harmoniously balances both adhesion and cohesion via interfacial hydrogen bonds. This hydrogel, composed of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polyacrylamide (PAM), silicotungstic acid (SiW), and lithium chloride (LiCl), showcases a unique combination of properties: strain-responsive ionic conductivity, superior transparency, remarkable stretchability, and robust adhesion. Contrary to conventional PAM hydrogels, our PAM-SiW networked hydrogel addresses the common challenge of achieving good adhesion without compromising on cohesion. Specifically, our hydrogel demonstrates a maximum toughness of 20.3 MJ/m3 and a strain of 4079%, an accomplishment rarely observed in other adhesive hydrogel. Furthermore, the hydrogel's adhesion is both reversible and versatile, adhering effectively to a variety of wet and dry substrates. This makes it a promising candidate for advanced healthcare applications, particularly as a mechanically reinforced underwater adhesive with unparalleled stability. We also provide insights into the role of LiCl in the hydrogel matrix, emphasizing its influence on electrostatic interactions without affecting the hydrogen bonds. This study serves as a testament to the potential of harmonizing adhesive and cohesive properties in hydrogels, paving the way for future innovations in the field.

Abstract
Oral submucous fibrosis is a chronic, inflammatory and potentially malignant oral disease. Local delivery of triamcinolone to lesion site is a commonly used therapy. The existing methods for local drug delivery include topical administration and submucosal injection. However, in the wet and dynamic oral microenvironment, these methods have drawbacks such as limited drug delivery efficiency and injection pain. Therefore, it is urgently needed to develop an alternative local drug delivery system with high efficiency and painlessness. Inspired by the structure of band-aid, this study proposed a novel double-layered mucoadhesive microneedle patch for transmucosal drug delivery. The patch consisted of a mucoadhesive silk fibroin/tannic acid top-layer and a silk fibroin microneedle under-layer. When applying the annealing condition for the medium content of β-sheets of silk fibroin, the microneedles in under-layer displayed both superior morphology and mechanical property. The mechanical strength of per needle (0.071N) was sufficient to penetrate the oral mucosa. Sequentially, the gelation efficiency of silk fibroin and tannic acid in top-layer was maximized as the weight ratio of tannic acid to silk fibroin reached 5:1. Moreover, in vitro results demonstrated the double-layered patch possessed undetectable cytotoxicity. The sustained release of triamcinolone was observed from the double-layered patch for at least 7 days. Furthermore, compared with other commercial buccal patches, the double-layered patch exhibited an enhanced wet adhesion strength of 37.74 kPa. In addition, ex vivo mucosal tissue penetration experiment confirmed that the double-layered patch could reach the lamina propria, ensuring effective drug delivery to the lesion site of oral submucous fibrosis. These results illustrate the promising potential of the drug-loaded mucoadhesive microneedle patch for the treatment of oral submucous fibrosis.

Abstract
Developing scalable and high-performance underwater adhesives is important in various biomedical and industrial applications. However, despite massive efforts, the realization of such adhesives remains a challenging task, as mainly imposed by the difficulty in balancing the interfacial and bulk properties via an efficient way. Here, we report a facile yet effective strategy to construct a novel underwater adhesive with multiple advantaged performances by virtue of heterocyclic chemistry. This adhesive is designed with the cooperation of a heterocycle-based versatile adhesive functionality and an eco-friendly hydrophilic matrix with cross-linkable sites, which allows water absorption to destroy hydration layer, diverse molecular interactions to enhance interfacial adhesion, and abundant covalent crosslinks to strengthen bulk cohesion. Such a rational design endows the adhesive with strong underwater adhesion (up to 1.16 MPa for wood and 0.36 MPa for poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE)), long-term durability (maintaining pristine strength even after 4 months), and harsh-environment stability (salt, acidic/alkaline, low/high-temperature solutions). This strategy is also generic to derive more adhesive formulas, which offers a new direction for designing the next-generation underwater adhesives with high performance and scalability for practical applications.

Abstract
Adhesives with strong and stable underwater adhesion performance play a critical role in industrial and biomedical fields. However, achieving strong underwater adhesion, especially in flowing aqueous and blood environments, remains challenging. In this work, a novel solvent-exchange-triggered adhesive of catechol-functionalized polyethylenimine ethoxylated is presented. The authors show that the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solution of the catechol-functionalized polymer can be directly applied to various substrates and exhibits robust dry/underwater adhesion performance induced through in situ liquid-to-solid phase transition triggered by water-DMSO solvent exchange. The adhesive can even strongly bond low-surface-energy substrates (e.g., > 86 kPa for polytetrafluoroethylene) in diverse environments, including deionized water, air, phosphate-buffered saline solution, seawater, and aqueous conditions with different pH values. Moreover, the adhesive exhibits strong adhesion to biological tissues and can be used as a hemostatic sealant to prevent bleeding from arteries and severe trauma to the viscera. The adhesives developed in this study with strong dry/underwater adhesion performance and excellent hemostatic capabilities display enormous application prospects in the biomedical fields.

Abstract
The development of environmentally friendly, green, and nontoxic adhesives with excellent dry and wet adhesion properties is of great attraction. In nature, barnacles and mussels exhibit strong adhesion by secreting a hydroxyl-rich dopa. Inspired by their adhesion mechanism, a simple biobased MAG-PETMP (MP) adhesive was prepared from magnolol (MAG) and pentaerythritol tetra (3-mercaptopropionate) (PETMP) by a thiol-ene click chemistry reaction. MP as an adhesive exhibits high bond strength with other substrates due to hydrogen bonds formed by the abundant hydroxyl groups at the interface and shows an inherent thermosetting network structure. Since MP has a thermosetting network, it exhibits excellent thermal stability, solvent resistance, and high mechanical strength, which make the adhesive stable in a humid environment. The cross-linking degree of MP can be easily controlled by adjusting the molar ratio of MAG and PETMP. Among the synthesized samples, the elongation at break of the MP 1 formulation is 174.27%, which makes it promising for use as a flexible adhesive. Moreover, the inherent antibacterial properties of MAG enable MP to exhibit antimicrobial properties and antibacterial adhesion to some extent. This work provides a simple biomimetic strategy that could enable the application of MAG for adhesives.

Marine organisms, such as mussels and sandcastle worms, can master rapid and robust adhesion in turbulent seawater, becoming leading archetypes for the design of underwater adhesives. The adhesive proteins secreted by the organisms are rich in catecholic amino acids along with ionic and amphiphilic moieties, which mediate the adaptive adhesion mainly through catechol chemistry and coacervation process. Catechol allows a broad range of molecular interactions both at the adhesive-substrate interface and within the adhesive matrix, while coacervation promotes the delivery and surface spreading of the adhesive proteins. These natural design principles have been translated to synthetic systems toward the development of biomimetic adhesives with water-resist adhesion and cohesion. This review provides an overview of the recent progress in bio-inspired wet adhesives, focusing on two aspects: (1) the elucidation of the versatile molecular interactions (e.g., electrostatic interactions, metal coordination, hydrogen bonding, and cation-π/anion-π interactions) used by natural adhesives, mainly through nanomechanical characterizations; and (2) the rational designs of wet adhesives based on these biomimetic strategies, which involve catechol-functionalized, coacervation-induced, and hydrogen bond-based approaches. The emerging applications (e.g., tissue glues, surgical implants, electrode binders) of the developed biomimetic adhesives in biomedical, energy, and environmental fields are also discussed, with future research directions proposed.

Hydrogel with Robust Adhesion in Various Liquid Environments by Electrostatic-Induced Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Polymer Chains Migration and Rearrangement.

Abstract
Hydrogels with wet adhesion are promising interfacial adhesive materials; however, their adhesion in water, oil, or organic solvents remains a major challenge. To address this, a pressure-sensitive P(AAm-co-C18 )/PTA-Fe hydrogel is fabricated, which exhibits robust adhesion to various substrates in both aqueous solutions and oil environments. It is demonstrated that the key to wet adhesion under liquid conditions is the removal of the interfacial liquid, which can be achieved through rational molecular composition regulation. By complexing with hydrophilic polymer networks, phosphotungstic acid (PTA) is introduced into the hydrogel network as a physical cross-linker and anchor point to improve the cohesion strength and drive the migration of polymer chains. The migration and rearrangement of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer chains on the hydrogel surface are induced by the electrostatic interactions of Fe3+ , which create a surface with interfacial water- and oil-removing properties. By co-regulating the hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer chains, the P(AAm-co-C18 )/PTA-Fe hydrogel is able to act as a pressure-sensitive adhesive under water and oils with adhesion strength of 92.6 and 90.0 kPa, respectively. It is anticipated that this regulation strategy for polymer chains will promote the development of wet adhesion hydrogels, which can have a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Underwater adhesives hold great promises in our daily life, biomedical fields and industrial engineering. Appropriate underwater bonding can reduce the huge cost from removing the target substance from water, and greatly lift working efficiency. However, different from bonding in air, underwater bonding is quite challenging. The existence of interfacial water prevents the intimate contact between the adhesives and the submerged surfaces, and water environment makes it difficult to achieve high cohesiveness. Even so, in recent years, various underwater adhesives with macroscopic adhesion abilities were emerged. These smart adhesives can ingeniously remove the interfacial water, and enhance cohesion by utilizing their special physicochemical properties or functional groups. In this mini review, we first give a detail introduction of the difficulties in underwater bonding. Further, we overview the recent strategies that are used to construct underwater adhesives, with the emphasis on how to overcome the difficulties of interfacial water and achieve high cohesiveness underwater. In addition, future perspectives of underwater adhesives from the view of practical applications are also discussed. We believe the review will provide inspirations for the discovery of new strategies to overcome the obstacles in underwater bonding, and therefore may contribute to designing effective underwater adhesives.

Abstract
Emerging sutureless wound-closure techniques have led to paradigm shifts in wound management. State-of-the-art biomaterials offer biocompatible and biodegradable platforms enabling high cohesion (toughness) and adhesion for rapid bleeding control as well as robust attachment of implantable devices. Tough bioadhesion stems from the synergistic contributions of cohesive and adhesive interactions. This Review provides a biomacromolecular design roadmap for the development of tough adhesive surgical sealants. We discuss a library of materials and methods to introduce toughness and adhesion to biomaterials. Intrinsically tough and elastic polymers are leveraged primarily by introducing strong but dynamic inter- and intramolecular interactions either through polymer chain design or using crosslink regulating additives. In addition, many efforts have been made to promote underwater adhesion via covalent/noncovalent bonds, or through micro/macro-interlock mechanisms at the tissue interfaces. The materials settings and functional additives for this purpose and the related characterization methods are reviewed. Measurements and reporting needs for fair comparisons of different materials and their properties are discussed. Finally, future directions and further research opportunities for developing tough bioadhesive surgical sealants are highlighted.

Abstract
Naturally inspired proteins are investigated for the development of bioglues that combine adhesion performance and biocompatibility for biomedical applications. However, engineering such adhesives by rational design of the proteins at the molecular level is rarely reported. Herein, it is shown that a new generation of protein-based glues is generated by supramolecular assembly through de novo designed structural proteins in which arginine triggers robust liquid-liquid phase separation. The encoded arginine moieties significantly strengthen multiple molecular interactions in the complex, leading to ultrastrong adhesion on various surfaces, outperforming many chemically reacted and biomimetic glues. Such adhesive materials enable quick visceral hemostasis in 10 s and outstanding tissue regeneration due to their robust adhesion, good biocompatibility, and superior antibacterial capacity. Remarkably, their minimum inhibitory concentrations are orders of magnitude lower than clinical antibiotics. These advances offer insights into molecular engineering of de novo designed protein glues and outline a general strategy to fabricate mechanically strong protein-based materials for surgical applications.

Abstract
Postoperative barriers have been widely used to prevent adhesions. However, there are currently few barriers that satisfy clinical requirements, such as tissue adhesion, operability, and biocompatibility. Inspired by the adhesion system of living organisms, we report a liquid-liquid phase-separated hydrogel as a single-syringe hotmelt-type postoperative barrier. Mixing polyethylene glycol with gelatin formed liquid-liquid phase-separated hydrogels through segregative liquid-liquid phase separation. Incorporation of a liquid-liquid phase-separated system into gelatin can enhance the sol-gel transition temperature to give a hotmelt-adhesive property to hydrogels. Hotmelt-adhesive hydrogels became a sol phase and cohered into tissue gaps when warmed and solidified at body temperature to adhere to soft tissues. The hydrogels exhibited tissue adhesion to large intestine tissues and showed improved mechanical strength, gelation time, and shear-thinning properties. In rat cecum-abdominal adhesion models, it was confirmed that the resulting hydrogels prevented abdominal adhesion and did not prevent tissue regeneration. Hotmelt-adhesive hydrogels with high tissue adhesive properties, operability, and biocompatibility have enormous potential as barriers to prevent postoperative complications.

Abstract
Noncovalent interactions, which usually feature tunable strength, reversibility, and environmental adaptability, have been recognized as driving forces in a variety of biological and chemical processes, contributing to the recognition between molecules, the formation of molecule clusters, and the establishment of complex structures of macromolecules. The marriage of noncovalent interactions and conventional covalent polymers offers the systems novel mechanical, physicochemical, and biological properties, which are highly dependent on the binding mechanisms of the noncovalent interactions that can be illuminated via quantification. This review systematically discusses the nanomechanical characterization of typical noncovalent interactions in polymeric systems, mainly through direct force measurements at microscopic, nanoscopic, and molecular levels, which provide quantitative information (e.g., ranges, strengths, and dynamics) on the binding behaviors. The fundamental understandings of intermolecular and interfacial interactions are then correlated to the macroscopic performances of a series of noncovalently bonded polymers, whose functions (e.g., stimuli-responsiveness, self-healing capacity, universal adhesiveness) can be customized through the manipulation of the noncovalent interactions, providing insights into the rational design of advanced materials with applications in biomedical, energy, environmental, and other engineering fields.

Abstract
Currently, the clinic's treatment of acute/chronic wounds is still unsatisfactory due to the lack of functional and appropriate wound dressings. Intelligent and multifunctional dressings are considered the most advanced wound treatment modalities. It is essential to design and develop wound dressings with required functions according to the wound microenvironment in the clinical treatment. This work summarizes microenvironment characteristics of various common wounds, such as acute wound, diabetic wound, burns wound, scalded wound, mucosal wound, and ulcers wound. Furthermore, the factors of transformation from acute wounds to chronic wounds were analyzed. Then we focused on summarizing how researchers fully and thoroughly combined the complex microenvironment with modern advanced technology to ensure the usability and value of the dressing, such as photothermal-sensitive dressings, microenvironment dressing (pH-sensitive dressings, ROS-sensitive dressings, and osmotic pressure dressings), hemostatic dressing, guiding tissue regeneration dressing, microneedle dressings, and 3D/4D printing dressings. Finally, the revolutionary development of wound dressings and how to transform the existing advanced functional dressings into clinical needs as soon as possible have carried out a reasonable and meaningful outlook.

Abstract
The bone adhesive is a clinical requirement for complicated bone fractures always articulated by surgeons. Applying glue is a quick and easy way to fix broken bones. Adhesives, unlike conventional fixation methods such as wires and sutures, improve healing conditions and reduce postoperative pain by creating a complete connection at the fractured joint. Despite many efforts in the field of bone adhesives, the creation of a successful adhesive with robust adhesion and appropriate bioactivity for the treatment of bone fractures is still in its infancy. Because of the resemblance of the body's humid environment to the underwater environment, in the latest decades, researchers have pursued inspiration from nature to develop strong bioactive adhesives for bone tissue. The aim of this review article is to discuss the recent state of the art in bone adhesives with a specific focus on biomimetic adhesives, their action mechanisms, and upcoming perspective. Firstly, the adhesive biomaterials with specific affinity to bone tissue are introduced and their rational design is studied. Consequently, various types of synthetic and natural bioadhesives for bone tissue are comprehensively overviewed. Then, bioinspired-adhesives are described, highlighting relevant structures and examples of biomimetic adhesives mainly made of DOPA and the complex coacervates inspired by proteins secreted in mussel and sandcastle worms, respectively. Finally, this article overviews the challenges of the current bioadhesives and the future research for the improvement of the properties of biomimetic adhesives for use as bone adhesives.

Abstract
Hydrogels with adhesive properties have the potential for rapid haemostasis and wound healing in uncontrolled non-pressurized surface bleeding. Herein, a typical hydrogen bond-crosslinked hydrogel with the above functions was constructed by directly mixing solutions of humic acid (HA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), in which the HA worked as a crosslinking agent to form hydrogen bonds with the PVP. By altering the concentration of HA, a cluster of stable and uniform hydrogels were prepared within 10 s. The dynamic and reversible nature of the hydrogen bonds gave the HA/PVP complex (HPC) hydrogels injectability and good flexibility, as well as a self-healing ability. Moreover, the numerous functional groups in the hydrogels enhanced the cohesion strength and interaction on the interface between the hydrogel and the substrate, endowing them with good adhesion properties. The unique chemical composition and cross-linking mechanism gave the HPC hydrogel good biocompatibility. Taking advantage of all these features, the HPC hydrogels obtained in this work were broadly applied as haemostatic agents and showed a good therapeutic effect. This work might lead to an improvement in the development of multifunctional non-covalent hydrogels for application to biomaterials.

Abstract
Water and adhesives have a conflicting relationship as demonstrated by the failure of most man-made adhesives in underwater environments. However, living creatures routinely adhere to substrates underwater. For example, sandcastle worms create protective reefs underwater by secreting a cocktail of protein glue that binds mineral particles together, and mussels attach themselves to rocks near tide-swept sea shores using byssal threads formed from their extracellular secretions. Over the past few decades, the physicochemical examination of biological underwater adhesives has begun to decipher the mysteries behind underwater adhesion. These naturally occurring adhesives have inspired the creation of several synthetic materials that can stick underwater - a task that was once thought to be "impossible". This review provides a comprehensive overview of the progress in the science of underwater adhesion over the past few decades. In this review, we introduce the basic thermodynamics processes and kinetic parameters involved in adhesion. Second, we describe the challenges brought by water when adhering underwater. Third, we explore the adhesive mechanisms showcased by mussels and sandcastle worms to overcome the challenges brought by water. We then present a detailed review of synthetic underwater adhesives that have been reported to date. Finally, we discuss some potential applications of underwater adhesives and the current challenges in the field by using a tandem analysis of the reported chemical structures and their adhesive strength. This review is aimed to inspire and facilitate the design of novel synthetic underwater adhesives, that will, in turn expand our understanding of the physical and chemical parameters that influence underwater adhesion.

Abstract
Adhesive hydrogels have been developed for wound healing applications. However, their adhesive performance is impaired dramatically due to their high swelling on wet tissues. To tackle this challenge, we fabricated a new type of non-swelling protein adhesive for underwater and in vivo applications. In this soft material, the electrostatic complexation between supercharged polypeptides with oppositely charged surfactants containing 3,4-dihydroxylphenylalanine or azobenzene moieties plays an important role for the formation of ultra-strong adhesive coacervates. Remarkably, the adhesion capability is superior to commercial cyanoacrylate when tested in ambient conditions. Moreover, the adhesion is stronger than other reported protein-based adhesives in underwater environment. The ex vivo and in vivo experiments demonstrate the persistent adhesive performance and outstanding behaviors for wound sealing and healing.

Abstract
Underwater adhesion is a great challenge for the development of adhesives as the attractive interfacial intermolecular interactions are usually weakened by the surface hydration layer. The coacervation process of sessile organisms like marine mussels and sandcastle worms has inspired substantial research interest in the fabrication of long-lasting underwater adhesives, but they generally suffer from time-consuming curing triggered by surrounding environmental changes and cannot reserve the adhesiveness once damaged. Herein, an instant and repeatable underwater adhesive was developed based on the coacervation of tannic acid (TA) and poly(ethylene glycol)77-b-poly(propylene glycol)29-b-poly(ethylene glycol)77 (PEG-PPG-PEG, F68), which was driven by hydrogen-bonding interaction, and the hydrophobic cores of F68 micelles offered an additional cross-linking to enhance the mechanical properties. The TA-F68 coacervates could be facilely painted on different substrates, exhibiting robust and instant underwater adhesion (with adhesion strength up to 1.1 MPa on porcine skin) and excellent repeatability (at least 1000 cycles), superior to the previously reported coacervates. Due to the biological activities of TA, the underwater adhesive displayed innate anticancer and antibacterial properties against different types of cancer cells and bacteria, showing great potential for diverse biomedical applications, such as injectable drug carriers, tissue glues, and wound dressings.

Abstract
The excellent adhesion of mussels under wet conditions has inspired the development of numerous catechol-based wet adhesives. Nevertheless, the performance of catechol-based wet adhesive suffers from the sensitivity toward temperature, pH, or oxidation stimuli. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop non-catechol-based wet adhesives to fully recapitulate nature's dynamic function. Herein, a novel type of non-catechol-based wet adhesive is reported, which is readily formed by self-assembly of commercially available branched polyethylenimine and phosphotungstic acid in aqueous solution through the combination of electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding. This wet adhesive shows reversible, tunable, and strong adhesion on diverse substrates and further exhibits high efficacy in promoting biological wound healing. During the healing of the wound, the as-prepared wet adhesive also possesses inherent antimicrobial properties, thus avoiding inflammations and infections due to microorganism accumulation.

Bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogel band-aids for diabetic wound healing and infectious skin incision treatment. Bioact Mater 2021; 6:3962-3975.

Abstract
The treatment of diabetic chronic wounds remains a global challenge due to the up-regulated inflammation response, oxidant stress, and persistent infection during healing process. Developing wound dressing materials with ideal biocompatibility, adequate mechanical strength, considerable under-water adhesion, sufficient anti-inflammation, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties is on-demand for clinical applications. In this study, we developed a bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogel band-aid through the combination of tannic acid (TA) and imidazolidinyl urea reinforced polyurethane (PMI) (TAP hydrogel) and explored its potentials in various medical applications, including hemostasis, normal skin incision, full-thickness skin wounds, and bacterial-infection skin incision on diabetic mice. TA was loaded into PMI hydrogel network to enhance the mechanical properties of TAP hydrogels through multiple non-covalent interactions (break strength: 0.28–0.64 MPa; elongation at break: 650–930%), which could resist the local stress and maintain the structural integrity of wound dressings during applications. Moreover, owing to the promising moisture-resistant adhesiveness and organ hemostasis, outstanding anti-inflammation, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties, TAP hydrogels could efficiently promote the recovery of skin incision and defects on diabetic mice. To further simulate the practical situation and explore the potential in clinical application, we also verified the treatment efficiency of TAP hydrogel in S. aureus-infected skin incision model on diabetic mice. Bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogels were developed through the combination of tannic acid and polyurethane. The wound healing and infected skin incision closure by the bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogels were studied on diabetic mice.
