Abstract
In order to improve the wound repair environment, this research has successfully developed a new multifunctional hydrogel dressing, which has strong adaptability and can accelerate wound healing. Pioneering the development of metal-ion-controlled hydrogel dressings, this research integrates dopamine and imidazole double crosslinked networks with metal-ion coordination. The resulting hydrogel dressing exhibits a notable antibacterial effect and exceptional mechanical properties, withstanding pressures of up to 12 kPa, tensions of 25 kPa, and maintaining skin adhesion at 6 kPa. Furthermore, the dressing can self-heal within only 7-8 s post-injection. Impressively, the hydrogel achieves complete biodegradation within a short timeframe (37 h). Notably, the use of various metal ions facilitates painless peeling during the degradation period, perfectly aligning with the requirements of an ideal wound dressing. This study has made significant progress in the fields of trauma repair and materials, providing strong solutions for dealing with harsh post-traumatic environments.

Abstract
With the increment in global energy consumption and severe environmental pollution, it is urgently needed to explore green and sustainable materials. Inspired by nature, catechol groups in mussel adhesion proteins have been successively understood and utilized as novel biomimetic materials. In parallel, cellulose presents a wide class of functional materials rating from macro-scale to nano-scale components. The cross-over among both research fields alters the introduction of impressive materials with potential engineering properties, where catechol-containing materials supply a general stage for the functionalization of cellulose or cellulose derivatives. In this review, the role of catechol groups in the modification of cellulose and cellulose derivatives is discussed. A broad variety of advanced applications of cellulose-based catechol-containing materials, including adhesives, hydrogels, aerogels, membranes, textiles, pulp and papermaking, composites, are presented. Furthermore, some critical remaining challenges and opportunities are studied to mount the way toward the rational purpose and applications of cellulose-based catechol-containing materials.

Abstract
One of the most advanced, promising, and commercially viable research issues in the world of hydrogel dressing is gaining functionality to achieve improved therapeutic impact or even intelligent wound repair. In addition to the merits of ordinary hydrogel dressings, functional hydrogel dressings can adjust their chemical/physical properties to satisfy different wound types, carry out the corresponding reactions to actively create a healing environment conducive to wound repair, and can also control drug release to provide a long-lasting benefit. Although a lot of in-depth research has been conducted over the last few decades, very few studies have been properly summarized. In order to give researchers a basic blueprint for designing functional hydrogel dressings and to motivate them to develop ever-more intelligent wound dressings, we summarized the development of functional hydrogel dressings in recent years, as well as the current situation and future trends, in light of their preparation mechanisms and functional effects.

Abstract
In clinical cancer research, photothermal therapy is one of the most effective ways to increase sensitivity to chemotherapy. Here, we present a simple and effective method for developing a nanotherapeutic agent for chemotherapy combined with photothermal therapy. The nanotherapeutic agent mesoporous polydopamine-Fe(III)-doxorubicin-hyaluronic acid (MPDA-Fe(III)-DOX-HA) was composed of mesoporous polydopamine modified by ferric ions and loaded with the anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX), as well as an outer layer coating of hyaluronic acid. The pore size of the mesoporous polydopamine was larger than that of the common polydopamine nanoparticles, and the particle size of MPDA-Fe(III)-DOX-HA nanoparticles was 179 ± 19 nm. With the presence of ferric ions, the heat generation effect of the MPDA-Fe(III)-DOX-HA nanoparticles in the near-infrared light at 808 nm was enhanced. In addition, the experimental findings revealed that the active targeting of hyaluronic acid to tumor cells mitigated the toxicity of DOX on normal cells. Furthermore, under 808 nm illumination, the MPDA-Fe(III)-DOX-HA nanoparticles demonstrated potent cytotoxicity to HCT-116 cells, indicating a good anti-tumor effect in vitro. Therefore, the system developed in this work merits further investigation as a potential nanotherapeutic platform for photothermal treatment of cancer.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Chemodynamic therapy (CDT) can efficiently kill cancer cells by producing hydroxyl radical (•OH), a kind of high-toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS), via Fenton or Fenton-like reactions. This study involved a versatile nanomedicine, MSN@DOX/GA-Fe/PDA (M@DGP), delivered via microneedles, which was expected to combine chemodynamic/photothermal/chemotherapy and efficiently increase ROS accumulation to achieve significant therapeutic efficacy against melanoma. EXPERIMENTS The composition of the synthesized nanoparticles was confirmed by a series of characterizations including transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and zeta potential. The photothermal properties of the nanomedicine was evaluated via infrared imaging, and •OH-producing ability was evaluated by UV-Vis and electron spin resonance. The mechanisms of ROS accumulation were studied in B16 cells by detecting intracellular •OH, glutathione, and ROS levels. The drug-loaded microneedles (M@DGP-MNs) were prepared, and their morphology and mechanical strength were characterized. The in vivo antimelanoma effect and biosafety evaluation of the nanomedicine were investigated in tumor-bearing C57 mice. FINDINGS M@DGP was successfully prepared and could achieve ROS accumulation through a photothermal-enhanced Fenton reaction, polydopamine-induced glutathione consumption, and doxorubicin-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction which induced oxidative stress and apoptosis of tumor cells. M@DGP-MNs showed superior antitumor efficacy and good biosafety, providing a promising strategy for melanoma treatment.

Abstract
The development of an efficient and convenient material to improve skin tissue regeneration is a major challenge in healthcare. Inspired by the theory of moist wound healing, portable chitooligosaccharide (COS)/sodium alginate (SA) dual-net gel films containing multiple metal ions were prepared by a casting and in-situ spray method, which can be used to significantly promote wound healing without the use of therapeutic drugs. A variety of divalent cations was introduced in this experiment to improve the advantages of each metal ion by forming metal ion chelates with COS. Moreover, the physicochemical properties and antioxidant properties of nIon2+-COS/SA gel films were systematically characterized and evaluated by in vitro experiments. The gel films showed good antibacterial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. In addition, the gel films showed good cytocompatibility in cellular experiments, and the gel films with Zn2+ and Sr2+ addition significantly accelerated wound healing in whole skin defect model experiments. Therefore, this nIon2+-COS/SA gel film is an ideal candidate material for wound dressing.

Abstract
Smart antibacterial systems, delivering antimicrobials in a highly controlled manner, are one strategy toward fighting the rise of antibiotic-resistant pathogens. Here, we engineer a laser-responsive antimicrobial nanocomposite hydrogel combining a peptide amphiphile and a photothermally active polydopamine nanoparticle (PDNP) to entrap the hydrophobic rifampicin within the hydrophilic hydrogel matrix. We show that the ability of the gelator to interact and retain rifampicin within the gel induced structural changes in its nanofiber network and mechanical properties. Furthermore, PDNP inclusion enabled laser-induced drug release, preventing growth of a Gram-negative E. coli. Overall, our work provides a significant advance in designing smart materials for controlled drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Recently, smart hydrogels have attracted much attention for their abilities to respond to subtle changes in external and internal stimuli. Also, natural polysaccharide-based biomaterials are more appealing for their biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, limitations owing to their complex compositions and mechanisms, cumbersome synthetic routes, and single function call for a simple and effective strategy to develop novel multifunctional smart hydrogels. Herein, this developed work was achieved based on Bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP), a kind of natural glucomannan with diverse bioactivities and biocompatibility, we fabricated a low-cost multifunctional hydrogel by oxidizing the catechol groups of carboxymethylated BSP(CBSP)-dopamine(DA) conjugate with adhesion, antioxidant, and pH-responsive properties. In this hydrogel system, CBSP as the backbone material, was negatively charged and conferred the hydrogel with pH sensitivity. The presence of catechol groups greatly enhanced the tissue adhesion and antioxidant capacities of the hydrogel. Meanwhile, the highly porous structure of hydrogel allowed berberine to be encapsulated and released to exhibit excellent and long-lasting antibacterial activity. In summary, the adhesion, antioxidant, pH-sensitive, and antibacterial multifunctional hydrogel showed massive potential in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels are attracting considerable interest in view of their potential in a wide range of applications that include healthcare and electronics. Such hydrogels are generally incorporated with conductive materials/polymers. Herein, we present a series of conductive hydrogels (Ch-CMC-PDA), prepared with no additional conductive material. The hydrogels were synthesized using a combination of chitosan, cellulose (CMC) and dopamine (DA). The conductivity (0.01-3.4 × 10-3 S cm-1) in these gels is attributed to ionic conductivity. Very few conductive hydrogels are endowed with additional properties like injectability, adhesiveness and self-healing, which would help to widen their scope for applications. While the dynamic Schiff base coupling in our hydrogels facilitated self-healing and injectable properties, polydopamine imparted tissue adhesiveness. The porosity, rheological, mechanical and conductive properties of the hydrogels are regulated by the CMC-dialdehyde-polydopamine (CMC-D-PDA) content. The hydrogel was evaluated in various bioelectronics applications like ECG monitoring and triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG). The ability of the hydrogel to support cell growth and serve as a template for tissue regeneration was confirmed using in vitro and in vivo studies. In summary, the integration of such remarkable features in the ionic-conductive hydrogel would enable its usage in bioelectronics and biomedical applications.

Abstract
As a kind of smart material, thermoresponsive hydrogels are widely investigated and applied in many fields. Due to the limitation of the freezing temperature of the water, it is a challenge to further broaden their sol-gel transition temperature (Tgel ) range, especially below 0 °C. Herein, the lower critical solution temperature type of amphiphilic ABA triblock copolymers, synthesized via two-step reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization is demonstrated. The hydrophilic A-block and the hydrophobic B-block are composed of poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide) (PDMAA) and poly(diacetone acrylamide) (PDAAM), respectively. The degree of polymerization (DP) of both A-block and B-block shows a significant influence on the Tgel of triblock copolymer dispersion. By changing the length of these two blocks or physically blending these copolymers dispersions, the Tgel can be well adjusted in a temperature range from 45 to -10 °C. Moreover, When the Tgel is higher than 4 °C, the triblock copolymer coatings show a good anti-fogging property. And when the Tgel is around or lower than the freezing temperature of the water, aqueous dispersions of the triblock copolymer have an ice recrystallization inhibition activity, resulting in the decrease of average maximum grain size (MLGS) of ice crystal.

Abstract
In this contribution, a novel cellulose acetate modified with dopamine (CA-DA) membrane material was designed and prepared by a two-step route consist of chlorination and further substitution reactions. The chemical structure of the prepared CA-DA material was determined by FTIR and 1H NMR, respectively. The CA-DA ultrafiltration membrane was subsequently fabricated by the scalable phase inversion process. Compared with cellulose acetate membrane as the control sample, the introduction of dopamine improved the porosity, pore size and hydrophilicity of the CA-DA membrane, which was helpful to the water permeability (181.2 L/m2h) without obviously affecting the protein rejection (93.5%). According to the static protein adsorption and dynamic cycle ultrafiltration experiments, the CA-DA membrane displayed persistent antifouling performance, which was verified by flux recovery ratio, flux decline ratio and filtration resistance. Moreover, the water flux recovery ratio of the CA-DA membrane was retained at 97.3% after three-cycles of BSA solution filtration, which was much higher than that of the reference CA membrane. This new approach provided a long life and excellent ultrafiltration performance for polymer-based membranes, which has potential application prospects in the field of separation process.

Abstract
Gd3+ and Tm3+ doped Prussian blue (Gd/Tm-PB) with high uniformity and dispersibility was synthesized by a facile solvothermal method. The conditions for the synthesis of Gd/Tm-PB were explored. Through the regulation of the ratio of Gd3+/Tm3+, the Gd/Tm-PB particles with the optimal size (about 150-200 nm) and the best fluorescence and photothermal effect were obtained. On the basis of the optimal Gd/Tm-PB, further coated by polydopamine (PDA) functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), a multifunctional platform Gd/Tm-PB@ZIF-8/PDA for cancer diagnosis and treatment was established. Doxorubicin (DOX) was selected as a drug model and the drug loading of Gd/Tm-PB@ZIF-8/PDA was found to be 81 mg g-1. Cytotoxicity analysis indicated that Gd/Tm-PB@ZIF-8/PDA was highly biocompatible. The DOX release at different pH values and GSH concentrations revealed an excellent pH/GSH-triggered drug release. Through the combination of the near infrared photothermal performance of Gd/Tm-PB, chemo-photothermal therapy can be achieved to further improve the anti-cancer efficiency. In addition, the Gd/Tm-PB@ZIF-8/PDA nanoparticles can be tracked by fluorescence imaging (FOI) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Cell FOI and in vivo MRI experiments showed the potential application of Gd/Tm-PB@ZIF-8/PDA in dual mode imaging guided therapy. In vivo antitumor experiments demonstrated the higher anticancer efficacy of Gd/Tm-PB@ZIF-8/PDA with a combined effect of chemo-photothermal therapy. This work provides a new strategy for nano-drug carriers in the direction of integrated diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract
Hydrogels have long been explored as attractive materials for biomedical applications given their outstanding biocompatibility, high water content, and versatile fabrication platforms into materials with different physiochemical properties and geometries. Nonetheless, conventional hydrogels suffer from weak mechanical properties, restricting their use in persistent load-bearing applications often required of materials used in medical settings. Thus, the fabrication of mechanically robust hydrogels that can prolong the lifetime of clinically suitable materials under uncompromising in vivo conditions is of great interest. This review focuses on design considerations and strategies to construct such tough hydrogels. Several promising advances in the proposed use of specialty tough hydrogels for soft actuators, drug delivery vehicles, adhesives, coatings, and in tissue engineering settings are highlighted. While challenges remain before these specialty tough hydrogels will be deemed translationally acceptable for clinical applications, promising preliminary results undoubtedly spur great hope in the potential impact this embryonic research field can have on the biomedical community.
