Abstract
Citrate-based biodegradable polymers have emerged as a distinctive biomaterial platform with tremendous potential for diverse medical applications. By harnessing their versatile chemistry, these polymers exhibit a wide range of material and bioactive properties, enabling them to regulate cell metabolism and stem cell differentiation through energy metabolism, metabonegenesis, angiogenesis, and immunomodulation. Moreover, the recent US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance of the biodegradable poly(octamethylene citrate) (POC)/hydroxyapatite-based orthopedic fixation devices represents a translational research milestone for biomaterial science. POC joins a short list of biodegradable synthetic polymers that have ever been authorized by the FDA for use in humans. The clinical success of POC has sparked enthusiasm and accelerated the development of next-generation citrate-based biomaterials. This review presents a comprehensive, forward-thinking discussion on the pivotal role of citrate chemistry and metabolism in various tissue regeneration and on the development of functional citrate-based metabotissugenic biomaterials for regenerative engineering applications.

Exploring the application of poly(1,2-ethanediol citrate)/polylactide nonwovens in cell culturing. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1332290.

Abstract
Biomaterials containing citric acid as a building unit show potential for use as blood vessel and skin tissue substitutes. The success in commercializing implants containing a polymer matrix of poly(1,8-octanediol citrate) provides a rationale for exploring polycitrates based on other diols. Changing the aliphatic chain length of the diol allows functional design strategies to control the implant's mechanical properties, degradation profile and surface energy. In the present work, poly(1,2-ethanediol citrate) was synthesized and used as an additive to polylactide in the electrospinning process. It was established that the content of polycitrate greatly influences the nonwovens' properties: an equal mass ratio of polymers resulted in the best morphology. The obtained nonwovens were characterized by surface hydrophilicity, tensile strength, and thermal properties. L929 cell cultures were carried out on their surface. The materials were found to be non-cytotoxic and the degree of porosity was suitable for cell colonization. On the basis of the most important parameters for assessing the condition of cultured cells (cell density and viability, cell metabolic activity and lactate dehydrogenase activity), the potential of PLLA + PECit nonwovens for application in tissue engineering was established.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine aims to restore tissue and organ function without the use of prosthetics and permanent implants. However, achieving this goal has been elusive, and the field remains mostly an academic discipline with few products widely used in clinical practice. From a materials science perspective, barriers include the lack of proregenerative biomaterials, a complex regulatory process to demonstrate safety and efficacy, and user adoption challenges. Although biomaterials, particularly biodegradable polymers, can play a major role in regenerative medicine, their suboptimal mechanical and degradation properties often limit their use, and they do not support inherent biological processes that facilitate tissue regeneration. As of 2020, nine synthetic biodegradable polymers used in medical devices are cleared or approved for use in the United States of America. Despite the limitations in the design, production, and marketing of these devices, this small number of biodegradable polymers has dominated the resorbable medical device market for the past 50 years. This perspective will review the history and applications of biodegradable polymers used in medical devices, highlight the need and requirements for regenerative biomaterials, and discuss the path behind the recent successful introduction of citrate-based biomaterials for manufacturing innovative medical products aimed at improving the outcome of musculoskeletal surgeries.

Abstract
Hydrogels provide a promising platform for cartilage repair and regeneration. Although hydrogels have shown some efficacy, they still have shortcomings including poor mechanical properties and suboptimal integration with surrounding cartilage. Herein, hydrogels that are injectable, cytocompatible, mechanically robust, and highly adhesive to cartilage are developed. This approach uses GelMA-glycol chitosan (GelMA-GC) that is crosslinkable with visible light and photoinitiators (lithium acylphosphinate and tris (2,2'-bipyridyl) dichlororuthenium (II) hexahydrate ([RuII(bpy)3 ]2+ and sodium persulfate (Ru/SPS)). Ru/SPS-cross-linked hydrogels have higher compressive and tensile modulus, and most prominently higher adhesive strength with cartilage, which also depends on inclusion of GC. Tensile and push-out tests of the Ru/SPS-cross-linked GelMA-GC hydrogels demonstrate adhesive strength of ≈100 and 46 kPa, respectively. Hydrogel precursor solutions behave in a Newtonian manner and are injectable. After injection in focal bovine cartilage defects and in situ cross-linking, this hydrogel system remains intact and integrated with cartilage following joint manipulation ex vivo. Cells remain viable (>85%) in the hydrogel system and further show tissue regeneration potential after three weeks of in vitro culture. These preliminary results provide further motivation for future research on bioadhesive hydrogels for cartilage repair and regeneration.

Abstract
Bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties enable easier and safer treatment of wounds as compared to the traditional methods such as suturing and stapling. Composed of natural or synthetic polymers, these bioadhesives seal wounds and facilitate healing while preventing infections through the activity of locally released antimicrobial drugs, nanocomponents, or inherently antimicrobial polers. Although many different materials and strategies are employed to develop antimicrobial bioadhesives, the design of these biomaterials necessitates a prudent approach as achieving all the required properties including optimal adhesive and cohesive properties, biocompatibility, and antimicrobial activity can be challenging. Designing antimicrobial bioadhesives with tunable physical, chemical, and biological properties will shed light on the path for future advancement of bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties. In this review, the requirements and commonly used strategies for developing bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties are discussed. In particular, different methods for their synthesis and their experimental and clinical applications on a variety of organs are reviewed. Advances in the design of bioadhesives with antimicrobial properties will pave the way for a better management of wounds to increase positive clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Conventional surgical closure techniques, such as sutures, clips, or skin closure strips, may not always provide optimal wound closure and may require invasive procedures, which can result in potential post-surgical complications. As result, there is a growing demand for innovative solutions to achieve superior wound closure and improve patient outcomes. To overcome the abovementioned issues, in situ generated hemostatic adhesives/sealants have emerged as a promising alternative, offering a targeted, controllable, and minimally invasive procedure for a wide variety of medical applications. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms of action and recent advances of in situ generated hemostatic adhesives, particularly protein-based, thermoresponsive, bioinspired, and photocrosslinkable formulations, as well as the design challenges that must be addressed. Overall, this review aims to enhance a comprehensive understanding of the latest advancements of in situ generated hemostatic adhesives and their mechanisms of action, with the objective of promoting further research in this field.

Abstract
Cardiovascular tissue constructs provide unique design requirements due to their functional responses to substrate mechanical properties and cyclic stretching behavior of cardiac tissue that requires the use of durable elastic materials. Given the diversity of polyester synthesis approaches, an opportunity exists to develop a new class of biocompatible, elastic, and immunomodulatory cardiovascular polymers. Furthermore, elastomeric polyester materials have the capability to provide tailored biomechanical synergy with native tissue and hence reduce inflammatory response in vivo and better support tissue maturation in vitro. In this review, we highlight underlying chemistry and design strategies of polyester elastomers optimized for cardiac tissue scaffolds. The major advantages of these materials such as their tunable elasticity, desirable biodegradation, and potential for incorporation of bioactive compounds are further expanded. Unique fabrication methods using polyester materials such as micromolding, 3D stamping, electrospinning, laser ablation, and 3D printing are discussed. Moreover, applications of these biomaterials in cardiovascular organ-on-a-chip devices and patches are analyzed. Finally, we outline unaddressed challenges in the field that need further study to enable the impactful translation of soft polyesters to clinical applications.

Abstract
Uncontrolled hemorrhage is a leading cause of death, emphasizing the need for novel hemostatic agents. Here, a novel hemostatic polysaccharide hemoadhican (HD) is screened out by analyzing the rheological properties of screened material mixed blood sludges, which is prepared by mixing polysaccharide granules and whole blood to mimic the coagulation in vitro. HD is produced by a bacterial isolate Paenibacillus sp.1229, and the repeating units of HD are →)-α-L-Rhap-(1→3)-β-D-Glcp-(1→4)[4,6-ethylidene-α-D-Galp-(1→4)-α-D-Glcp-(1→3)]-α-D-Manp-(1→. Compared to chitosan and celox, HD achieves more effective hemostasis in animal models with mouse and rat femoral arteries, rat carotid arteries, and rabbit femoral arteries. Especially, HD maintains an excellent hemostatic capability in animals with heparin-induced hemorrhage diathesis. In vitro experiments show HD granules can quickly absorb a small amount of blood component to create a hemophobic blood sludge resistant to high pressure. The blood sludge firmly adheres to damaged tissue and efficiently repels blood. In vitro experiments show that HD does not actively trigger blood coagulation cascade and is independent of blood conditions including heparin treatment. In addition, HD moisturizes wounds and accelerates wound healing, exhibiting excellent biodegradability, and hemocompatibility. The results indicate that HD is a promising hemostatic material for treating traumatic hemorrhages and uncontrollable surgical bleeding.

Zinc-Based Tannin-Modified Composite Microparticulate Scaffolds with Balanced Antimicrobial Activity and Osteogenesis for Infected Bone Defect Repair. Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2300303.

Abstract
Treatment of infected bone defects is a major clinical challenge; bioactive materials combining sufficient antimicrobial activity and favorable osteogenic ability are urgently needed. In this study, through a facile one-pot hydrothermal reaction of zinc acetate in the presence of tannic acid (TA), with or without silver nitrate (AgNO3 ), is used to synthesize a TA or TA and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) bulk-modified zinc oxide (ZnO) (ZnO-TA or ZnO-TA-Ag), which is further composited with zein to fabricate porous microparticulate scaffolds for infected bone defect repair. Bulk TA modification significantly improves the release rate of antibacterial metal ions (Zn2+ release rate is >100 times that of ZnO). Fast and long-lasting (>35 d) Zn2+ and Ag+ release guaranteed sufficient antibacterial capability and excellent osteogenic properties in promoting the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and endogenous citric acid production and mineralization and providing considerable immunomodulatory activity in promoting M2 polarization of macrophages. At the same time, synchronously-released TA could scavenge endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ROS produced by antibacterial metal ions, effectively balancing antibacterial activity and osteogenesis to sufficiently control infection while protecting the surrounding tissue from damage, thus effectively promoting infected bone defect repair.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is a major challenge that could threaten the patient's life in repairing bone defects with implant materials. Developing functional scaffolds with an intelligent antibacterial function that can be used for bone repair is very important. We constructed a drug delivery (HA@TA-CS/SA) scaffold with curcumin-loaded dendritic mesoporous organic silica nanoparticles (DMON@Cur) via 3D printing for antibacterial bone repair. Inspired by the adhesion mechanism of mussels, the HA@TA-CS/SA scaffold of hydroxyapatite (HA) and chitosan (CS) is bridged by tannic acid (TA), which in turn binds sodium alginate (SA) using electrostatic interactions. The results showed that the HA@TA-CS/SA composite scaffold had better mechanical properties compared with recent literature data, reaching 68.09 MPa. It displayed excellent degradation and mineralization capabilities with strong biocompatibility in vitro. Furthermore, the antibacterial test results indicated that the curcumin-loaded scaffold inhibited S.aureus and E.coli with 99.99% and 96.56% effectiveness, respectively. These findings show that 3D printed curcumin-loaded HA@TA-CS/SA scaffold has considerable promise for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Hard-to-heal wounds (i.e., severe and/or chronic) are typically associated with particular pathologies or afflictions such as diabetes, immunodeficiencies, compression traumas in bedridden people, skin grafts, or third-degree burns. In this situation, it is critical to constantly monitor the healing stages and the overall wound conditions to allow for better-targeted therapies and faster patient recovery. At the moment, this operation is performed by removing the bandages and visually inspecting the wound, putting the patient at risk of infection and disturbing the healing stages. Recently, new devices have been developed to address these issues by monitoring important biomarkers related to the wound health status, such as pH, moisture, etc. In this contribution, we present a novel textile chemical sensor exploiting an organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) configuration based on poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) for uric acid (UA)-selective monitoring in wound exudate. The combination of special medical-grade textile materials provides a passive sampling system that enables the real-time and non-invasive analysis of wound fluid: UA was detected as a benchmark analyte to monitor the health status of wounds since it represents a relevant biomarker associated with infections or necrotization processes in human tissues. The sensors proved to reliably and reversibly detect UA concentration in synthetic wound exudate in the biologically relevant range of 220-750 μM, operating in flow conditions for better mimicking the real wound bed. This forerunner device paves the way for smart bandages integrated with real-time monitoring OECT-based sensors for wound-healing evaluation.

Abstract
Wound-infecting bacteria are typically Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus epidermidis, both of which form biofilms and become resistant to antibiotics. To solve this problem, copper nanoparticles (Cu) on graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets were used as antibacterial materials. Since the excessive use of antibacterial substances is fatal to normal tissues, GO/Cu was encapsulated with a gelatin complex to lower the cytotoxicity. Among the catechol-based substances, gallic acid (GA), which has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, was used in this study to impart stability to the gelatin complex. Gelatin (GE) and gallic acid (GA) were combined by a crosslinking method using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC)/N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) as a crosslinker, and the crosslinking was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), 1H NMR, and the fluorescence property of GA. The GO/Cu@GE-GA microcomplexes exhibited more antibacterial effect against Gram-positive bacteria (S. epidermidis) and Gram-negative bacteria (P. aeruginosa) than when GO/Cu alone was used, and the antibiofilm effect was also confirmed. The cytotoxicity evaluation for human skin cells (human dermal fibroblast (HDF)) at the same concentration showed that it had low cytotoxicity and biocompatibility. This study shows the potential of antimicrobial gelatin microcomplex in prohibiting infectious bacteria and their biofilms and controlling the release of antimicrobial substances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-traumatic massive hemorrhage demands immediately available first-aid supplies with reduced operation time and good surgical compliance. In-situ crosslinking gels that are flexibly adapting to the wound shape have a promising potential, but it is still hard to achieve fast gelation, on-demand adhesion, and wide feasibility at the same time. METHODS A white-light crosslinkable natural milk-derived casein hydrogel bioadhesive is presented for the first time. Benefiting from abundant tyrosine residues, casein hydrogel bioadhesive was synthesized by forming di-tyrosine bonds under white light with a ruthenium-based catalyst. We firstly optimized the concentration of proteins and initiators to achieve faster gelation and higher mechanical strength. Then, we examined the degradation, cytotoxicity, tissue adhesion, hemostasis, and wound healing ability of the casein hydrogels to study their potential to be used as bioadhesives. RESULT Rapid gelation of casein hydrogel is initiated with an outdoor flashlight, a cellphone flashlight, or an endoscopy lamp, which facilitates its usage during first-aid and minimally invasive operations. The rapid gelation enables 3D printing of the casein hydrogel and excellent hemostasis even during liver hemorrhage due to section injury. The covalent binding between casein and tissue enables robust adhesion which can withstand more than 180 mmHg blood pressure. Moreover, the casein-based hydrogel can facilitate post-traumatic wound healing caused by trauma due to its biocompatibility. CONCLUSION Casein-based bioadhesives developed in this study pave a way for broad and practical application in emergency wound management.

Bioact Mater 2023; 20:93-110. [PMID: 35633874 PMCID: PMC9131258 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2022.05.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 48.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2022] [Revised: 05/07/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The revolutionary role of tissue adhesives in wound closure, tissue sealing, and bleeding control necessitates the development of multifunctional materials capable of effective and scarless healing. In contrast to the use of traditionally utilized toxic oxidative crosslinking initiators (exemplified by sodium periodate and silver nitrate), herein, the natural polyphenolic compound tannic acid (TA) was used to achieve near instantaneous (<25s), hydrogen bond mediated gelation of citrate-based mussel-inspired bioadhesives combining anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial activities (3A-TCMBAs). The resulting materials were self-healing and possessed low swelling ratios (<60%) as well as considerable mechanical strength (up to ∼1.0 MPa), elasticity (elongation ∼2700%), and adhesion (up to 40 kPa). The 3A-TCMBAs showed strong in vitro and in vivo anti-oxidant ability, favorable cytocompatibility and cell migration, as well as photothermal antimicrobial activity against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli (>90% bacterial death upon near-infrared (NIR) irradiation). In vivo evaluation in both an infected full-thickness skin wound model and a rat skin incision model demonstrated that 3A-TCMBAs + NIR treatment could promote wound closure and collagen deposition and improve the collagen I/III ratio on wound sites while simultaneously inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Further, phased angiogenesis was observed via promotion in the early wound closure phases followed by inhibition and triggering of degradation & remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the late stage (supported by phased CD31 (platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1) PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor) and VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) expression as well as elevated matrix metalloprotein-9 (MMP-9) expression on day 21), resulting in scarless wound healing. The significant convergence of material and bioactive properties elucidated above warrant further exploration of 3A-TCMBAs as a significant, new class of bioadhesive. Citrate-based mussel-inspired bioadhesive prepolymers were crosslinked with tannic acid via hydrogen bonding (3A-TCMBAs). 3A-TCMBAs showed good tissue adhesiveness, self-healing and elastic properties. 3A-TCMBAs exhibited photothermal antibacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory efficiency. 3A-TCMBAs could promote scarless wound healing by enabling phased angiogenesis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common type of degenerative joint disease which affects 7% of the global population and more than 500 million people worldwide. One research frontier is the development of hydrogels for OA treatment, which operate either as functional scaffolds of tissue engineering or as delivery vehicles of functional additives. Both approaches address the big challenge: establishing stable integration of such delivery systems or implants. Adhesive hydrogels provide possible solutions to this challenge. However, few studies have described the current advances in using adhesive hydrogel for OA treatment. This review summarizes the commonly used hydrogels with their adhesion mechanisms and components. Additionally, recognizing that OA is a complex disease involving different biological mechanisms, the bioactive therapeutic strategies are also presented. By presenting the adhesive hydrogels in an interdisciplinary way, including both the fields of chemistry and biology, this review will attempt to provide a comprehensive insight for designing novel bioadhesive systems for OA therapy.

In this review, we summarize recent progress in the multifunctional design and biomedical applications of citrate-based polymers. We also discuss the further development of multifunctional citrate-based polymers with tailored properties to meet the requirements of various biomedical applications. Multifunctional bioactive citrate-based biomaterials have broad applications in regenerative medicine. Recent advances in multifunctional design and biomedical applications of citate-based polymers are summarized. Future challenge of citrate-based polymers in various biomedical applications are discussed.

Abstract
The high demand for rapid wound healing has spurred the development of multifunctional and smart bioadhesives with strong bioadhesion, antibacterial effect, real-time sensing, wireless communication, and on-demand treatment capabilities. Bioadhesives with bio-inspired structures and chemicals have shown unprecedented adhesion strengths, as well as tunable optical, electrical, and bio-dissolvable properties. Accelerated wound healing has been achieved via directly released antibacterial and growth factors, material or drug-induced host immune responses, and delivery of curative cells. Most recently, the integration of biosensing and treatment modules with wireless units in a closed-loop system yielded smart bioadhesives, allowing real-time sensing of the physiological conditions (e.g., pH, temperature, uric acid, glucose, and cytokine) with iterative feedback for drastically enhanced, stage-specific wound healing by triggering drug delivery and treatment to avoid infection or prolonged inflammation. Despite rapid advances in the burgeoning field, challenges still exist in the design and fabrication of integrated systems, particularly for chronic wounds, presenting significant opportunities for the future development of next-generation smart materials and systems. Rational material engineering of bioadhesives with optimized mechanical and curative properties. Incorporation of biosensing allows real-time and precise evaluation of the healing stage. Closed-loop, smart bioadhesives that integrate wireless sensing and treatment hold great potential for chronic wound healing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin tissue is vital in protecting the body from injuries and bacterial infections. Wound infection caused by bacterial colonization is one of the main factors hindering wound healing. Wound infection caused by colonization of a large number of bacteria can cause the wound to enter a continuous stage of inflammation, which delays wound healing. Hydrogel wound dressing is composed of natural and synthetic polymers, which can absorb tissue fluid, improve the local microenvironment of wound, and promote wound healing. However, in the preparation process of hydrogel, the complex preparation process and poor biological efficacy limit the application of hydrogel wound dressing in complex wound environment. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop and prepare hydrogel dressings with simple technology, good physical properties and biological effects by using natural polymers. RESULTS In this study, a gelatin-based (Tsg-THA&Fe) hydrogel was created by mixing trivalent iron (Fe3+) and 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (THA) to form a complex (THA&Fe), followed by a simple Schiff base reaction with tilapia skin gelatin (Tsg). The gel time and rheological properties of the hydrogels were adjusted by controlling the number of complexes. The dynamic cross-linking of the coordination bonds (o-phthalmictriol-Fe3+) and Schiff base bonds allows hydrogels to have good self-healing and injectable properties. In vitro experiments confirmed that the hydrogel had good biocompatibility and biodegradability as well as adhesion, hemostasis, and antibacterial properties. The feasibility of Tsg-THA&Fe hydrogel was studied by treating rat skin trauma model. The results showed that compared with Comfeel® Plus Transparent dressing, the Tsg-THA&Fe hydrogel could obvious reduce the number of microorganisms, prevent bacterial colonization, reduce inflammation and accelerate wound healing. Local distribution of the Tsg-THA&Fe hydrogel in the skin tissue did not cause organ toxicity. CONCLUSIONS In summary, the preparation process of Tsg-THA&Fe hydrogel is simple, with excellent performance in physical properties and biological efficacy. It can effectively relieve inflammation and control the colonization of wound microbes, and can be used as a multi-functional dressing to improve wound healing.

Abstract
The burden of bone fractures demands development of effective biomaterial solutions, while additional acute events such as noncompressible bleeding further motivate the search for multi-functional implants to avoid complications including osseous hemorrhage, infection, and nonunion. Bone wax has been widely used in orthopedic bleeding control due to its simplicity of use and conformation to irregular defects; however, its nondegradability results in impaired bone healing, risk of infection, and significant inflammatory responses. Herein, a class of intrinsically fluorescent, osteopromotive citrate-based polymer/hydroxyapatite (HA) composites (BPLP-Ser/HA) as a highly malleable press-fit putty is designed. BPLP-Ser/HA putty displays mechanics replicating early nonmineralized bone (initial moduli from ≈2-500 kPa), hydration induced mechanical strengthening in physiological conditions, tunable degradation rates (over 2 months), low swelling ratios (<10%), clotting and hemostatic sealing potential (resistant to blood pressure for >24 h) and significant adhesion to bone (≈350-550 kPa). Simultaneously, citrate's bioactive properties result in antimicrobial (≈100% and 55% inhibition of S. aureus and E. coli) and osteopromotive effects. Finally, BPLP-Ser/HA putty demonstrates in vivo regeneration in a critical-sized rat calvaria model equivalent to gold standard autograft. BPLP-Ser/HA putty represents a simple, off-the-shelf solution to the combined challenges of acute wound management and subsequent bone regeneration.

Abstract
Due to the nature of non-invasive wound closure, the ability to close different forms of leaks, and the potential to immobilize various devices, bioadhesives are altering clinical practices. As one of the vital factors, bioadhesives' strength is determined by adhesion and cohesion mechanisms. As well as being essential for adhesion strength, the cohesion mechanism also influences their bulk functions and the way the adhesives can be applied. Although there are many published reports on various adhesion mechanisms, cohesion mechanisms have rarely been addressed. In this review, we have summarized the most used cohesion mechanisms. Furthermore, the relationship of cohesion strategies and adhesion strategies has been discussed, including employing the same functional groups harnessed for adhesion, using combinational approaches, and exploiting different strategies for cohesion mechanism. By providing a comprehensive insight into cohesion strategies, the paper has been integrated to offer a roadmap to facilitate the commercialization of bioadhesives. Bioadhesive are altering clinical practices. Bioadhesives for medical applications needs different cohesion strategies. Better understanding of cohesion mechanism can design suitable bioadhesives.

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
The inhibition of inflammation and the promotion of early angiogenesis are paid much attention in skin tissue engineering. Citric acid-based biomaterials are widely used in tissue engineering due to their bioactive structure and biocompatibility, but there are few studies on investigating their role and mechanism in wound repair and skin regeneration. Herein, the potential anti-inflammation mechanism of poly(octanediol-citrate-polyglycol) (POCG) copolymer is reported in regulating skin wound repair. It is found that POCG can modulate macrophages phenotype through downregulating the expression of proinflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis facor-α (Tnf-α), Interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and polarizing macrophages to anti-inflammatory (M2) phenotype. POCG can promote endothelial cell vascularization by increasing the expression of angiogenesis factors (vascular endothelial growth factor (Vegf) and cluster of differentiation 31CD31) mediated by the macrophage polarization. The in vivo study shows that POCG can accelerate skin wound repair through suppressing the acute inflammation and inducing early angiogenesis through the polarization modulation. Furthermore, the POCG polymer has good biocompatibility for both immune cells and tissue cells. This study may provide the important theoretical support on the bioactivity of citrate-based biomaterials and expanding their applications in tissue engineering.

Abstract
In nature, phenolic biopolymers are utilized as functional tools and molecular crosslinkers to control the mechanical properties of biomaterials. Of particular interest are phenolic proteins/polysaccharides from living organisms, which are rich in catechol and/or gallol groups. Their strong underwater adhesion is attributed to the representative phenolic molecule, catechol, which stimulates intermolecular and intramolecular crosslinking induced by oxidative polymerization. Significant efforts have been made to understand the underlying chemistries, and researchers have developed functional biomaterials by mimicking the systems. Owing to their unique biocompatibility and ability to transform their mechanical properties, phenolic polymers have revolutionized biotechnologies. In this review, we highlight the bottom-up approaches for mimicking polyphenolic materials in nature and recent advances in related biomedical applications. We expect that this review will contribute to the rational design and synthesis of polyphenolic functional biomaterials and facilitate the production of related applications.

Abstract
Existing tissue adhesives and sealants are far from satisfactory when applied on wet and dynamic tissues. Herein, we report a strategy for designing biodegradable super-strong aqueous glue (B-Seal) for surgical uses inspired by an English ivy adhesion strategy and a cement particle packing theory. B-Seal is a fast-gelling, super-strong, and elastic adhesive sealant composed of injectable water-borne biodegradable polyurethane (WPU) nanodispersions with mismatched particle sizes and counterions in its A-B formulation. B-Seal showed 24-fold greater burst pressure than DuraSeal®, 138-fold greater T-pull adhesive strength than fibrin glue, and 16-fold greater lap shear strength than fibrin glue. In vivo evaluation on a rat cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea model and a porcine craniotomy model validated the safety and efficacy of B-Seal for effective CSF leak prevention and dura repair. The plant-inspired adhesion strategy combined with particle packing theory represents a new direction of designing the next-generation wet tissue adhesives for surgeries.

Abstract
Several bronchoscopic lung volume reduction (BLVR) treatments have been developed to reduce hyperinflation in emphysema patients. Lung bio-adhesives are among the most promising new BLVR treatment options, as they potentially provide a permanent solution for emphysematous patients after only a single application. To date, bio-adhesives have mainly been used as haemostats and tissue sealants, while their application in permanently contracting and sealing hyperinflated lung tissue has recently been identified as a novel and enticing opportunity. However, a major drawback of the current adhesive technology is the induction of severe inflammatory responses and adverse events upon administration. In our review, we distinguish between and discuss various natural, semi-synthetic and synthetic tissue haemostats and sealants that have been used for pulmonary applications such as sealing air/fluid leaks. Furthermore, we present an overview of the different materials including AeriSeal and autologous blood that have been used to achieve lung volume reduction and discuss their respective advantages and drawbacks. In conclusion, we describe the key biological (therapeutic benefit and biocompatibility) and biomechanical (degradability, adhesive strength, stiffness, viscoelasticity, tunability and self-healing capacity) characteristics that are essential for an ideal lung bio-adhesive material with the potential to overcome the concerns related to current adhesives.

Abstract
Influenza is a major threat to millions of people worldwide. Entry inhibitors are of particular interest for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for influenza. We have previously discovered oleanolic acid (OA) to be a mild influenza hemagglutinin (HA) inhibitor. In this work, inspired by the 3D structure of HA as a homotrimeric receptor, we designed and synthesized 15 OA trimers with different linkers and central region via the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction. All of the OA trimers were evaluated for their antiviral activities in vitro, and 12c, 12e, 13c, and 13d were observed to exhibit robust potency (IC50 in the submicromolar range) against influenza A/WSN/33 (H1N1) virus that was stronger than that observed with oseltamivir. In addition, these compounds also displayed strong biological activity against A/Hong Kong/4801/2014 and B/Sichuan/531/2018 (BV). The results of hemagglutination inhibition assays and surface plasmon resonance binding assays suggest that these OA trimers may interrupt the interaction between the HA protein of influenza virus and the host cell sialic acid receptor, thus blocking viral entry. These findings highlight the utility of multivalent OA conjugates to enhance the ligand-target interactions in anti-influenza virus drug design and are also helpful for studying antiviral drugs derived from natural products.

Abstract
Citrate-based mussel-inspired whitlockite composite adhesives (CMWAs) were developed and administered to the bone-tendon interface in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. CMWAs could improve the initial bone-tendon bonding strength, promote the bony inward growth from the bone tunnel and enhance the chondrogenesis and osteogenesis of the bone-tendon interface, thus augmenting bone-to-tendon healing.

Abstract
In clinical terms, bone grafting currently involves the application of autogenous, allogeneic, or xenogeneic bone grafts, as well as natural or artificially synthesized materials, such as polymers, bioceramics, and other composites. Many of these are associated with limitations. The ideal scaffold for bone tissue engineering should provide mechanical support while promoting osteogenesis, osteoconduction, and even osteoinduction. There are various structural complications and engineering difficulties to be considered. Here, we describe the biomimetic possibilities of the modification of natural or synthetic materials through physical and chemical design to facilitate bone tissue repair. This review summarizes recent progresses in the strategies for constructing biomimetic scaffolds, including ion-functionalized scaffolds, decellularized extracellular matrix scaffolds, and micro- and nano-scale biomimetic scaffold structures, as well as reactive scaffolds induced by physical factors, and other acellular scaffolds. The fabrication techniques for these scaffolds, along with current strategies in clinical bone repair, are described. The developments in each category are discussed in terms of the connection between the scaffold materials and tissue repair, as well as the interactions with endogenous cells. As the advances in bone tissue engineering move toward application in the clinical setting, the demonstration of the therapeutic efficacy of these novel scaffold designs is critical.

Abstract
Tissue adhesives have been widely used in surgery to treat pulmonary air leaks. However, conventional adhesives have poor interfacial strength under wet conditions. To overcome this clinical problem, we modified Alaska pollock-derived gelatin to include decanyl (C10) groups (C10-ApGltn) and used electrospinning to create a tissue-adhesive fiber sheet (AdFS). C10-AdFS showed higher burst strength when adhering to porcine pleura compared with a sheet of original ApGltn (Org-ApGltn). Hematoxylin-eosin-stained sections after burst experiments reveal that a dense C10-AdFS layer remained on the surface of the porcine pleura. The effect of the degree of C10 modification of ApGltn on the burst strength was evaluated. ApGltn with a C10 modification ratio of 13 mol% amino groups (13C10-AdFS) exhibited the highest burst strength. Furthermore, from ex vivo experiments with extracted rat lung, 13C10-AdFS exhibited a higher burst strength (41 cm H2O) than Org-AdFS. The decanyl groups in 13C10-AdFS interacted with the hydrophobic proteins and the lipid bilayers of the cells, resulting in the high interfacial strength between 13C10-AdFS and the pleura. Moreover, 13C10-AdFS samples implanted subcutaneously in the backs of rats were completely degraded within 21 days without any severe inflammation. These results show that 13C10-AdFS is a promising adhesive material for the treatment of pulmonary air leaks.

Abstract
Bacterial infection associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) bacteria is increasingly becoming a significant public health risk. Herein, we synthesized a series of halogenated dopamine methacrylamide (DMA), which contains a catechol side chain modified with either chloro-, bromo-, or iodo-functional group. Catechol is a widely used adhesive moiety for designing bioadhesives and coating. However, the intrinsic antimicrobial property of catechol has not been demonstrated before. These halogenated DMA were incorporated into hydrogels, copolymers, and coatings and exhibited more than 99% killing efficiencies against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli. More importantly, hydrogel containing chlorinated DMA demonstrated broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities towards multiple MDR bacteria, which included methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA), vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE), multi antibiotics resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAER), multi antibiotics resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) and carbapenem resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). These hydrogels also demonstrated the ability to kill bacteria in a biofilm while exhibiting low cytotoxic. Based on molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation, Cl-functionalized catechol can potentially inhibit bacterial fatty acid synthesis at the enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (FabI) step. The combination of moisture-resistant adhesive property, inherent antimicrobial property, and the versatility of incorporating halogenated DMA into different polymeric materials greatly enhanced the potential for using these monomers for designing multifunctional bioadhesives and coatings.

Abstract
Orthopedic implant-associated infection constitutes one of the most devastating and challenging symptoms in the clinic. Implants without antimicrobial properties may become the harbourage for microbial colonization and biofilm formation, thus hindering normal bone regeneration processes. We had previously developed tannin modified HA (THA) as well as silver and tannin modified hydroxyapatite (HA) (Ag-THA) via a facile one-step and scalable process, and proven their antimicrobial performance in vitro. Herein, by compositing with non-antimicrobial polyurethane (PU), the in vivo anti-bacterial activity, osteoconductivity and osteoinductivity of PU/Ag-THA composite were investigated using an infected femoral condyle defect model on rat. PU/Ag-THA exhibited excellent in vivo antimicrobial activity, with the calculated bacteria fraction being reduced to lower than 3% at week 12 post operation. Meanwhile, PU/Ag-THA is also promising for bone regeneration under the bacteria challenge, evidenced by a final bone mineral density (BMD) ~0.6 times higher than that of the blank control at week 12. A continuous increase in BMD over time was observed in the PU/Ag-THA group, but not in the blank control and its non- or weak-antimicrobial counterparts (PU/HA and PU/THA), in which the growth rate of BMD declined after 8 weeks of operation. The enhanced osteoinductivity of PU/Ag-THA relative to blank control, PU/HA and PU/THA was also confirmed by the Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) and osteocalcin (OCN) immunohistochemical staining. The above findings suggest that antimicrobial Ag-THA may serve as a promising and easy-to-produce antimicrobial mineral for the development of antimicrobial orthopedic composite implants to address the challenges in orthopedic surgeries, especially where infection may become a challenging condition to treat.

Abstract
Natural or synthetic materials designed to adhere to biological components, bioadhesives, have received significant attention in clinics and surgeries. As a result, there are several commercially available, FDA-approved bioadhesives used for skin wound closure, hemostasis, and sealing tissue gaps or cracks in soft tissues. Recently, the application of bioadhesives has been expanded to various areas including musculoskeletal tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The instant establishment of a strong adhesion force on tissue surfaces has shown potential to augment repair of connective tissues. Bioadhesives have also been applied to secure tissue grafts to host bodies and to fill or seal gaps in musculoskeletal tissues caused by injuries or degenerative diseases. In addition, the injectability equipped with the instant adhesion formation may provide the great potential of bioadhesives as vehicles for localized delivery of cells, growth factors, and small molecules to facilitate tissue healing and regeneration. This review covers recent research progress in bioadhesives as focused on their applications in musculoskeletal tissue repair and regeneration. We also discuss the advantages and outstanding challenges of bioadhesives, as well as the future perspective toward regeneration of connective tissues with high mechanical demand.

Abstract
Complete skeletal muscle repair and regeneration due to severe large injury or disease is still a challenge. Biochemical cues are critical to control myoblast cell function and can be utilized to develop smart biomaterials for skeletal muscle engineering. Citric acid-based biodegradable polymers have received much attention on tissue engineering, however, their regulation on myoblast cell differentiation and mechanism was few investigated. Here, we find that citrate-based polycitrate-polyethylene glycol-polyethylenimine (POCG-PEI600) nanoclusters can significantly enhance the in vitro myoblast proliferation by probably reinforcing the mitochondrial number, promote the myotube formation and full-thickness skeletal muscle regeneration in vivo by activating the myogenic biomarker genes expression of Myod and Mhc. POCG-PEI600 nanoclusters could also promote the phosphorylation of p38 in MAP kinases (MAPK) signaling pathway, which led to the promotion of the myoblast differentiation. The in vivo skeletal muscle loss rat model also confirmed that POCG-PEI600 nanoclusters could significantly improve the angiogenesis, myofibers formation and complete skeletal muscle regeneration. POCG-PEI600 nanocluster could be also biodegraded into small molecules and eliminated in vivo, suggesting their high biocompatibility and biosafety. This study could provide a bioactive biomaterial-based strategy to repair and regenerate skeletal muscle tissue.

Abstract
Mussels are well-known for their extraordinary capacity to adhere onto different surfaces in various hydrophillic conditions. Their unique adhesion ability under water or in wet conditions has generated considerable interest towards developing mussel inspired polymeric systems that can mimic the chemical mechanisms used by mussels for their adhesive properties. Catechols like 3,4-dihydroxy phenylalanine (DOPA) and their biochemical interactions have been largely implicated in mussels' strong adhesion to various substrates and have been the centerpoint of research and development efforts towards creating superior tissue adhesives for surgical and tissue engineering applications. In this article, we review bioadhesion and adhesives from an engineering standpoint, specifically the requirements of a good tissue glue, the relevance that DOPA and other catechols have in tissue adhesion, current trends in mussel-inspired bioadhesives, strategies to develop mussel-inspired tissue glues, and perspectives for future development of these materials.

Abstract
Tissue adhesives have emerged as an effective method for wound closure and hemostasis in recent decades, due to their ability to bond tissues together, preventing separation from one tissue to another. However, existing tissue adhesives still have several limitations. Tremendous efforts have been invested into developing new tissue adhesives by improving upon existing adhesives through different strategies. Therefore, highlighting and analyzing these design strategies are essential for developing the next generation of advanced adhesives. To this end, we reviewed the available strategies for modifying traditional adhesives (including cyanoacrylate glues, fibrin sealants and BioGlue), as well as design of emerging adhesives (including gelatin sealants, methacrylated sealants and bioinspired adhesives), focusing on their structures, adhesive mechanisms, advantages, limitations, and current applications. The bioinspired adhesives have numerous advantages over traditional adhesives, which will be a wise direction for achieving tissue adhesives with superior properties.

Abstract
The effectiveness of commercial bone adhesives is known to be hampered by the weak efficacy of cell ingrowth. The strategy of macropore-forming, especially bioactive macropores, holds considerable promise to circumvent this problem, thereby promoting fracture healing. Herein, a class of bioactive glass-involved macropore-embedded bone adhesives is developed, which is capable of facilitating the migration of bone-derived mesenchymal stromal cells into the adhesive layer and differentiation into osteocytes. The integration of bioactive glass-particle-encapsulated porogens in the bone adhesives is key to this approach. A robust instant bonding on the bone adhesive and a high efficiency of bone regeneration on a mouse skull are observed, both of which are vital for clinical applications and personalized surgical procedures. This work represents a general strategy to design biomaterials with high cell-ingrowth efficacy.

Abstract
Introduction: The development of more efficacious vaccines, especially subunit vaccines administered via non-invasive routes, is a priority in vaccinology. Nanogels are materials that can meet the requirements to serve as efficient vaccine delivery vehicles (in terms of thermo-sensitivity, biocompatibility, and pH-responsiveness; among others); thus there is a growing interest in exploring the potential of nanogels for vaccine development. Areas covered: Herein, a critical analysis of nanogel synthesis methodologies is presented and nanogel-based vaccines under development are summarized and placed in perspective. Promising vaccine candidates based on nanogels have been reported for cancer, obesity, and infectious diseases (mainly respiratory diseases). Some of the candidates were administered by mucosal routes which are highly attractive in terms of simple administration and induction of protective responses at both mucosal and systemic levels. Expert opinion: The most advanced models of nanogel-based vaccines comprise candidates against cancer, based on cholesteryl pullulan nanogels evaluated in clinical trials with promising findings; as well as some vaccines against respiratory pathogens tested in mice thus far. Nonetheless, the challenge for this field is advancing in clinical trials and proving the protective potential in test animals for many other candidates. Implementing green synthesis approaches for nanogels is also required.

Abstract
An increasing number of patients are being diagnosed with neurological diseases, but are rarely cured because of the lack of curative therapeutic approaches. This situation creates an urgent clinical need to develop effective diagnosis and treatment strategies for repair and regeneration of injured or diseased neural tissues. In this regard, biodegradable functional biomaterials provide promising solutions to meet this demand owing to their unique responsiveness to external stimulation fields, which enable neuro-imaging, neuro-sensing, specific targeting, hyperthermia treatment, controlled drug delivery, and nerve regeneration. This review discusses recent progress in the research and development of biodegradable functional biomaterials including electroactive biomaterials, magnetic materials and photoactive biomaterials for the management of neurological disorders with emphasis on their applications in bioimaging (photoacoustic imaging, MRI and fluorescence imaging), biosensing (electrochemical sensing, magnetic sensing and opical sensing), and therapy strategies (drug delivery, hyperthermia treatment, and tissue engineering). It is expected that this review will provide an insightful discussion on the roles of biodegradable functional biomaterials in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases, and lead to innovations for the design and development of the next generation biodegradable functional biomaterials.

Abstract
Mussel adhesive proteins (MAPs) have a unique ability to firmly adhere to different surfaces in aqueous environments via the special amino acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA). The catechol groups in DOPA are a key group for adhesive proteins, which is highly informative for the biomedical domain. By simulating MAPs, medical products can be developed for tissue adhesion, drug delivery, and wound healing. Hydrogel is a common formulation that is highly adaptable to numerous medical applications. Based on a discussion of the adhesion mechanism of MAPs, this paper reviews the formation and adhesion mechanism of catechol-functionalized hydrogels, types of hydrogels and main factors affecting adhesion, and medical applications of hydrogels, and future the development of catechol-functionalized hydrogels.

Abstract
Acellular epicardial patches that treat myocardial infarction by increasing the mechanical integrity of damaged left ventricular tissues exhibit widely scattered therapeutic efficacy. Here, we introduce a viscoelastic adhesive patch, made of an ionically crosslinked transparent hydrogel, that accommodates the cyclic deformation of the myocardium and outperforms most existing acellular epicardial patches in reversing left ventricular remodelling and restoring heart function after both acute and subacute myocardial infarction in rats. The superior performance of the patch results from its relatively low dynamic modulus, designed at the so-called 'gel point' via finite-element simulations of left ventricular remodelling so as to balance the fluid and solid properties of the material.
