[PMID: 38972524 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpharm.2024.124421] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/09/2024]
Abstract
In this paper, a hydrogel material with efficient antibacterial, hemostatic, self-healing, and injectable properties was designed for the treatment of diabetic wounds. Firstly, quaternary ammonium salts were grafted with oxidized sodium alginate, and quaternized oxidized sodium alginate (QOSA) was synthesized. Due to the introduction of quaternary ammonium group it has antibacterial and hemostatic effects, at the same time, due to the presence of aldehyde group it can be reacted with carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) to form a hydrogel through the Schiff base reaction. Furthermore, deer antler blood polypeptide (DABP) was loaded into the hydrogel (QOSA&CMCS&DABP), showing good swelling ratio and bacteriostatic effect. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that the hydrogel not only quickly inhibited hepatic hemorrhage in mice and reduced coagulation index and clotting time in vitro, but also significantly enhanced collagen deposition at the wound site, accelerating wound healing. This demonstrates that the multifunctional hydrogel materials (QOSA&CMCS&DABP) have promising applications in the acceleration of skin wound healing and antibacterial promotion.

Epidermal growth factor-loaded, dehydrated physical microgel-formed adhesive hydrogel enables integrated care of wet wounds. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 275:133655.

Abstract
Integrated wound care, a sequential process of promoting wound hemostasis, sealing, and healing, is of great clinical significance. However, the wet environment of wounds poses formidable challenges for integrated care. Herein, we developed an epidermal growth factor (EGF)-loaded, dehydrated physical microgel (DPM)-formed adhesive hydrogel for the integrated care of wet wounds. The DPMs were designed using the rational combination of hygroscopicity and reversible crosslinking of physical hydrogels. Unlike regular bioadhesives, which consider interfacial water as a barrier to adhesion, DPMs utilize water to form desirable adhesive structures. The hygroscopicity allowed the DPMs to absorb interfacial water and subsequently, the interfacial adhesion was realized by the interactions between tissue and DPMs. The reversible crosslinks further enabled DPMs to integrate into hydrogels (DPM-Gels), thus achieving wet adhesion. Importantly, the water-absorbing gelation mode of DPMs enabled facile loading of biologically active EGF to promote wound healing. We demonstrated that the DPM-Gels possessed wet tissue adhesive performance, with about 40 times the wet adhesive strength of fibrin glue and about 4 times the burst pressure of human blood pressure. Upon application at the injury site, the EGF-loaded DPM-Gels sequentially promoted efficient wound hemostasis, stable sealing, and quick healing, achieving integrated care of wet wounds.

Abstract
Dynamic covalent bond hydrogels have demonstrated significant application potential in biomedical fields for their dynamic reversibility. However, the contradiction between the stability and dynamics of the hydrogel restricts its application. Here, utilizing silver sulfadiazine (AgSD) as a catalyst, hyaluronic acid-based hydrogels are constructed through imine bond crosslinking and incorporated disulfide bonds within the same crosslinking chain. It is found that AgSD can accelerate the formation of imine crosslinking bonds to improve the stability of hydrogels, thereby shortening the gelation time by ≈36.9 times, enhancing compression strength and adhesion strength by ≈2.4 times and 1.7 times, respectively, while inhibiting swelling and degradation rates to ≈2.1 times and 3.7 times. Besides, AgSD can coordinate with disulfide bonds to enhance the dynamics of hydrogel, enhancing the hydrogel self-healing efficiency by ≈2.3 times while reducing the relaxation time by ≈25.1 times. Significantly, AgSD imparts remarkable antibacterial properties to the hydrogel, thereby effectively facilitating the healing of bacterial infected wounds. Consequently, introducing AgSD enables hydrogels to possess concurrent stability, dynamics, and antibacterial properties. This strategy of regulating hydrogels by introducing AgSD provides a valuable reference for the application of dynamic covalent bonds.

Abstract
The powerful adhesion systems of marine organisms have inspired the development of artificial protein-based bioadhesives. However, achieving robust wet adhesion using artificial bioadhesives remains technically challenging because the key element of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS)-driven complex coacervation in natural adhesion systems is often ignored. In this study, mimicking the complex coacervation phenomenon of marine organisms, an artificial protein-based adhesive hydrogel (SFG hydrogel) was developed by adopting the LLPS-mediated coacervation of the natural protein silk fibroin (SF) and the anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). The assembled SF/SDBS complex coacervate enabled precise spatial positioning and easy self-adjustable deposition on irregular substrate surfaces, allowing for tight contact. Spontaneous liquid-to-solid maturation promoted the phase transition of the SF/SDBS complex coacervate to form the SFG hydrogel in situ, enhancing its bulk cohesiveness and interfacial adhesion. The formed SFG hydrogel exhibited intrinsic advantages as a new type of artificial protein-based adhesive, including good biocompatibility, robust wet adhesion, rapid blood-clotting capacity, and easy operation. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that the SFG hydrogel not only achieved instant and effective hemostatic sealing of tissue injuries but also promoted wound healing and tissue regeneration, thus advancing its clinical applications. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Marine mussels utilize the liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) strategy to induce the supramolecular assembly of mussel foot proteins, which plays a critical role in strong underwater adhesion of mussel foot proteins. Herein, an artificial protein-based adhesive hydrogel (named SFG hydrogel) was reported by adopting the LLPS-mediated coacervation of natural protein silk fibroin (SF) and anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS). The assembled SFG hydrogel enabled the precise spatial positioning and easy self-adjustable deposition on substrate surfaces with irregularities, allowing tight interfacial adhesion and cohesiveness. The SFG hydrogel not only achieved instant and effective hemostatic sealing of tissue injuries but also promoted wound healing and tissue regeneration, exhibiting intrinsic advantages as a new type of artificial protein-based bioadhesives.

Abstract
The preservation of vital pulps is crucial for maintaining the physiological functions of teeth; however, vital pulp therapy (VPT) of pulpitis teeth remains a substantial challenge due to uncontrolled infection, excessive inflammation, and limited regenerative potential. Current pulp capping agents have restricted effects in the infectious and inflammatory microenvironment. To address this, a multifunctional hydrogel (TGH/DM) with antibacterial, immunomodulatory, and mineralization-promoting effects is designed. The antimicrobial peptide (AMP) and demineralized dentin matrix are incorporated into the hydrogel, achieving sustainable delivery of AMP and a cocktail of growth factors. In vitro results show that TGH/DM could kill endodontic microbiota, ameliorate inflammatory responses of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs), and prompt odontogenic differentiation of inflammatory hDPSCs via activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma. In vivo results suggest that TGH/DM is capable of inducing M2 phenotype transformation of macrophages in mice and fostering the regeneration of the dentin-pulp complex in inflamed pulps of beagle dogs. Overall, this study first proposes the synergistic regulation of AMP and tissue-specific extracellular matrix for the treatment of pulpitis, and the advanced hydrogel provides a facile and effective way for VPT.

Abstract
Injectable adhesive hydrogels combining rapid gelling with robust adhesion to wet tissues are highly required for fast hemostasis in surgical and major trauma scenarios. Inspired by the cross-linking mechanism of mussel adhesion proteins, we developed a bionic double-crosslinked (BDC) hydrogel of poly (γ-glutamic acid) (PGA)/poly (N-(2-hydroxyethyl) acrylamide) (PHEA) fabricated through a combination of photo-initiated radical polymerization and hydrogen bonding cross-linking. The BDC hydrogel exhibited an ultrafast gelling process within 1 s. Its maximum adhesion strength to wet porcine skin reached 254.5 kPa (9 times higher than that of cyanoacrylate (CA) glue) and could withstand an ultrahigh burst pressure of 626.4 mmHg (24 times higher than that of CA glue). Notably, the BDC hydrogel could stop bleeding within 10 s from a rat liver incision 10 mm long and 5 mm deep. The wound treated with the BDC hydrogel healed faster than the control groups, underlining the potential for emergency rescue and wound care scenarios.

Abstract
Bacterially infected wounds are a serious threat to patients' lives and health, and multifunctional dressings with antimicrobial properties and healing promotion are urgently needed. Thus, we used the cationic and anionic properties of chitosan (CS)-nerol (N) derivative (CSN) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) to prepare asymmetric layer-by-layer self-assembled (LBL) composite films (CSN-CMC LBL films) with antibacterial and healing properties using a spin-coating method. SEM images showed that the CSN-CMC LBL films had completely different degrees of roughness at the bottom (hydrophilic layer) and at the top (hydrophobic layer), with the roughness at the top increasing as the number of layers increased. The CSN and CMC were used to prepare asymmetric LBL films via the electrostatic attraction of -COO- and NH3+. In addition, adhesion and water contact angle tests showed that the CSN-CMC LBL films had enhanced tissue adhesion and good hydrophobicity. These materials had excellent antimicrobial activity and good biocompatibility. Importantly, the animal infection model results showed that CSN-CMC-8 LBL films effectively eliminated the infection in vivo, inhibited inflammation, promoted vascular regeneration, accelerated the epithelialization process, and achieved high quality healing. Overall, the CSN-CMC LBL films in this study showed considerable potential for application in infected wound healing.

Abstract
The epithelium, an essential barrier to protect organisms against infection, exists in many organs. However, rapid re-epithelialization to restore tissue integrity and function in an adverse environment is challenging. In this work, a long-term anti-inflammatory and antioxidant hydrogel with mechanical stimulation for rapid re-epithelialization, mainly composed of the small molecule thioctic acid, biocompatible glycine, and γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles is reported. Glycine-modified supramolecular thioctic acid is stable and possesses outstanding mechanical properties. The incorporating γ-Fe2O3 providing the potential contrast function for magnetic resonance imaging observation, can propel hydrogel reconfiguration to enhance the mechanical properties of the hydrogel underwater due to water-initiated release of Fe3+. In vitro experiments show that the hydrogels effectively reduced intracellular reactive oxygen species, guided macrophages toward M2 polarization, and alleviated inflammation. The effect of rapid re-epithelialization is ultimately demonstrated in a long urethral injury model in vivo, and the mechanical stimulation of hydrogels achieves effective functional replacement and ultimately accurate remodeling of the epithelium. Notably, the proposed strategy provides an advanced alternative treatment for patients in need of large-area epithelial reconstruction.

Abstract
Bioadhesives have garnered widespread attention in the biomedical field, for wound healing and tissue sealing. However, challenges exist due to the inferior performance of bioadhesives, including weak adhesion, poor biocompatibility, or lack of biodegradability. In this work, we demonstrate the fabrication of hydrogel adhesive based on polypeptides composed of lysine and glutamic acid. The cation-π interaction between the ammonium cations and phenyl groups endows the hydrogel with strong cohesion, and the hydrophobicity of the phenyl group significantly enhances the interaction between polypeptides and the substrate interface, leading to excellent adhesive performance. The equivalent molar ratio of ammonium cations and the phenyl group is beneficial for the enhancement of adhesiveness. Furthermore, we discover that the polypeptides with an α-helix exhibit better adhesiveness than the polypeptides with a β-sheet because the α-helical structure can increase the exposure of the side group on the polypeptide surface, which further strengthens the interaction between polypeptides and the substrate. Besides, this synthetic polypeptide adhesive can seal the tissue quickly and remain intact in water. This adhesive holds significant promise for application in wound healing and tissue sealing, and this study provides insight into the development of more peptide-based adhesives.

Abstract
Bacteria-induced epidemics and infectious diseases are seriously threatening the health of people around the world. In addition, antibiotic therapy has been inducing increasingly more serious bacterial resistance, which makes it urgent to develop new treatment strategies to combat bacteria, including multidrug-resistant bacteria. Natural extracts displaying antibacterial activity and good biocompatibility have attracted much attention due to greater concerns about the safety of synthetic chemicals and emerging drug resistance. These antibacterial components can be isolated and utilized as antimicrobials, as well as transformed, combined, or wrapped with other substances by using modern assistive technologies to fight bacteria synergistically. This review summarizes recent advances in natural extracts from three kinds of sources-plants, animals, and microorganisms-for antibacterial applications. This work discusses the corresponding antibacterial mechanisms and the future development of natural extracts in antibacterial fields.

Abstract
Multifunctional dressing biomaterials that can promote tissue adhesion, hemostasis, and soft-tissue wound healing are of great clinical significance. Here, we report a nanocomposite supramolecular sponge constructed by an air-in-water emulsion template composed of methacrylated gelatin (GelMA), Laponite nanoclay, and branched supramolecular polymer (PAMU). The sponge has an interconnected macroporous structure and exhibits tunable mechanical properties with varying Laponite concentration. The nanoengineered sponge is endowed with tissue adhesion by intermolecular hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions contributed by the supramolecular polymer and the Laponite nanoclay. The biocompatible sponge facilitates cell proliferation and blood coagulation in both in vitro and in vivo experiments. In addition, the results of the rat external abdominal wall defect model show that the sponge can promote angiogenesis, collagen deposition, and granulation tissue formation to accelerate wound repair. These findings suggest that the unique air-in-water templated sponge is a promising candidate for applications in hemostasis and wound healing.

Abstract
The increased demand for improved strategies for wound healing has, in recent years, motivated the development of multifunctional hydrogels with favorable bio-compatibility and antibacterial properties. To this regard, the current study presented the design of a novel self-healing composite hydrogel that could perform as wound dressing for the promotion of wound healing. The composite hydrogels were composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), borax and chitosan functionalized with sialic acid (SA-CS) and curcumin loaded pluronic F127 micelles. The hydrogels were formed through the boronic ester bond formation between PVA, SA-CS and borax under physiological conditions and demonstrated adjustable mechanical properties, gelation kinetics and antibacterial properties. When incubating with NIH3T3 cells, the hydrogels also demonstrated good biocompatibility. These aspects offer a promising foundation for their prospective applications in developing clinical materials for wound healing.

Abstract
Periodontitis, a chronic infection causing periodontal tissue loss, may be effectively addressed with in situ tissue engineering. Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) offers exceptional biocompatibility and biodegradability but lacks sufficient osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties. This study develops and characterizes SIS coated with hydroxyapatite (SIS-HA) and gelatin methacrylate hydroxyapatite (SIS-Gel-HA) using biomineralization and chemical crosslinking. The impact on periodontal tissue regeneration is assessed by evaluating macrophage immune response and osteogenic differentiation potential of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) in vitro and rat periodontal defects in vivo. The jejunum segment, with the highest collagen type I content, is optimal for SIS preparation. SIS retains collagen fiber structure and bioactive factors. Calcium content is 2.21% in SIS-HA and 2.45% in SIS-Gel-HA, with no significant differences in hydrophilicity, physicochemical properties, protein composition, or biocompatibility among SIS, SIS-HA, SIS-Gel, and SIS-Gel-HA. SIS is found to upregulate M2 marker expression, both SIS-HA and SIS-Gel-HA enhance the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs through the BMP-2/Smad signaling pathway, and SIS-HA demonstrates superior in vitro osteogenic activity. In vivo, SIS-HA and SIS-Gel-HA yield denser, more mature bones with the highest BMP-2 and Smad expression. SIS-HA and SIS-Gel-HA demonstrate enhanced immunity-osteogenesis coupling, representing a promising periodontal tissue regeneration approach.

Abstract
Developing injectable antiswelling and high-strength bioactive hydrogels with wet tissue adhesiveness and a rapid gelling process to meet the requirements for rapid hemostasis, sutureless wound closure, and scar-free repair of infected skin wounds continues to have ongoing challenges. Herein, injectable, antibacterial, and antioxidant hydrogel adhesives based on poly(citric acid-co-polyethylene glycol)-g-dopamine and amino-terminated Pluronic F127 (APF) micelles loaded with astragaloside IV (AS) are prepared. The H2O2/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) system is used to cause cross-linking of the hydrogel network through oxidative coupling between catechol groups and chemical cross-linking between the catechol group and the amino group. The hydrogels exhibit a rapid gelling process, high mechanical strength, an antiswelling effect, good antioxidant property, H2O2 release behavior, and degradability. In addition, the hydrogels present good wet tissue adhesiveness, high bursting pressure, excellent antibacterial activity, long-term sustained release of AS, and good biocompatibility. The hydrogels perform good hemostasis on mouse liver, rat liver, and rabbit femoral vein bleeding models and achieve much better closure and healing of skin incisions than biomedical glue and surgical sutures. Furthermore, the hydrogel dressing significantly improved the scar-free repair of MRSA-infected full thickness skin defect wounds by modulating inflammation, regulating the ratio of collagen I/III, and improving the vascularization and granulation tissue formation. Thus, AS-loaded hydrogels show huge potential as multifunctional dressings for in vivo hemostasis, sutureless wound closure, and scar-free repair of infected skin wounds.

Abstract
Diabetic wound healing has become a serious healthcare challenge. The high-glucose environment leads to persistent bacterial infection and mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in chronic inflammation, abnormal vascular function, and tissue necrosis. To solve these issues, we developed a double-network hydrogel, constructed with pluronic F127 diacrylate (F127DA) and hyaluronic acid methacrylate (HAMA), and enhanced by SS31-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs). As components, SS31, a mitochondria-targeted peptide, maintains mitochondrial function, reduces mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and thus regulates macrophage polarization, as well as promoting cell proliferation and migration, while MPDA NPs not only scavenge ROS and exert an anti-bacterial effect by photothermal treatment under near-infrared light irradiation, but also control release of SS31 in response to ROS. This F127DA/HAMA-MPDA@SS31 (FH-M@S) hydrogel has characteristics of adhesion, superior biocompatibility and mechanical properties which can adapt to irregular wounds at different body sites and provide sustained release of MPDA@SS31 (M@S) NPs. In addition, in a diabetic rat full thickness skin defect model, the FH-M@S hydrogel promoted macrophage M2 polarization, collagen deposition, neovascularization and wound healing. Therefore, the FH-M@S hydrogel exhibits promising therapeutic potential for skin regeneration.

Abstract
Uncontrolled bleeding is the leading cause of death, and the death risk of bleeding from coagulopathy is even higher. By infusing the relevant coagulation factors, bleeding in patients with coagulopathy can be clinically treated. However, there are not many emergency hemostatic products accessible for coagulopathy patients. In response, a Janus hemostatic patch (PCMC/CCS) with a two-layer structure of partly carboxymethylated cotton (PCMC) and catechol-grafted chitosan (CCS) was developed. Ultra-high blood absorption (4000 %) and excellent tissue adhesion (60 kPa) were both displayed by PCMC/CCS. The proteomic analysis revealed that PCMC/CCS has significantly contributed to the creative generation of FV, FIX, and FX, as well as to the substantial enrichment of FVII and FXIII, re-paving the initially blocked coagulation pathway of coagulopathy to promote hemostasis. The in vivo bleeding model of coagulopathy demonstrated that PCMC/CCS was substantially more effective than gauze and commercial gelatin sponge at achieving hemostasis in just 1 min. The study provides one of the first investigations on procoagulant mechanisms in anticoagulant blood conditions. Rapid hemostasis in coagulopathy will be significantly affected by the results of this experiment.

Abstract
Trauma often results in peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs). These injuries are particularly challenging therapeutically because of variable nerve diameters, slow axonal regeneration, infection of severed ends, fragility of the nerve tissue, and the intricacy of surgical intervention. Surgical suturing is likely to cause additional damage to peripheral nerves. Therefore, an ideal nerve scaffold should possess good biocompatibility, diameter adaptability, and a stable biological interface for seamless biointegration with tissues. Inspired by the curl of Mimosa pudica, this study aimed to design and develop a diameter-adaptable, suture-free, stimulated curling bioadhesive tape (SCT) hydrogel for repairing PNI. The hydrogel is fabricated from chitosan and acrylic acid-N-hydroxysuccinimide lipid via gradient crosslinking using glutaraldehyde. It closely matches the nerves of different individuals and regions, thereby providing a bionic scaffold for axonal regeneration. In addition, this hydrogel rapidly absorbs tissue fluid from the nerve surface achieving durable wet-interface adhesion. Furthermore, the chitosan-based SCT hydrogel loaded with insulin-like growth factor-I effectively promotes peripheral nerve regeneration with excellent bioactivity. This procedure for peripheral nerve injury repair using the SCT hydrogel is simple and reduces the difficulty and duration of surgery, thereby advancing adaptive biointerfaces and reliable materials for nerve repair.

Abstract
Materials employed in the treatment of conditions encountered in surgical and clinical practice frequently face barriers in translation to application. Shortcomings can be generalized through their reduced mechanical stability, difficulty in handling, and inability to conform or adhere to complex tissue surfaces. To overcome an amalgam of challenges, research has sought the utilization of polymer-derived nanomaterials deposited in various fashions and formulations to improve the application and outcomes of surgical and clinical interventions. Clinically prevalent applications include topical wound dressings, tissue adhesives, surgical sealants, hemostats, and adhesion barriers, all of which have displayed the potential to act as superior alternatives to current materials used in surgical procedures. In this review, emphasis will be placed not only on applications, but also on various design strategies employed in fabrication. This review is designed to provide a broad and thought-provoking understanding of nanomaterials as adjuvant tools for the assisted treatment of pathologies prevalent in surgery. This article is categorized under: Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanomaterials and Implants Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanoscale Tools and Techniques in Surgery.

Abstract
Mussel-inspired catechol-functionalization of degradable natural biomaterials has garnered significant interest as an approach to achieve bioadhesion for sutureless wound closure. However, conjugation capacity in standard coupling reactions, such as carbodiimide chemistry, is limited by low yield and lack of abundant conjugation sites. Here, a simple oxidative polymerization step before conjugation of catechol-carrying molecules (i.e., 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine, l-DOPA) as a potential approach to amplify catechol function in bioadhesion of natural gelatin biomaterials is proposed. Solutions of gelatin modified with poly(l-DOPA) moieties (GelDOPA) are characterized by faster physical gelation and increased viscosity, providing better wound control on double-curved tissue surfaces compared to those of l-DOPA-conjugated gelatin. Physical hydrogels treated topically with low concentrations of NaIO4 solutions are crosslinked on-demand via through-thickness diffusion. Poly(l-DOPA) conjugates enhance crosslinking density compared to l-DOPA conjugated gelatin, resulting in lower swelling and enhanced cohesion in physiological conditions. Together with cohesion, more robust bioadhesion at body temperature is achieved by poly(l-DOPA) conjugates, exceeding those of commercial sealants. Further, poly(l-DOPA) motifs introduced photothermal responsiveness via near-infrared (NIR) irradiation for controlled drug release and potential applications in photothermal therapy. The above functionalities, along with antibacterial activity, render the proposed approach an effective biomaterial design strategy for wound closure applications.

Abstract
It is one of the most emergent challenges to prepare wound dressings for quickly and effectively controlling profuse bleeding in clinical surgery and emergent accident. In this work, a novel strategy has been developed to prepare methacrylated gelatin-dopamine (GelMA-DA)/quaternized chitosan (QCS)/glycerol (Gly) composite sponges with good biocompatibility, tissue self-adhesion, antibacterial activity, and hemostatic ability. Results show that the GelMA-DA/QCS/Gly sponges display good biocompatibility and water absorption capacity. The lap shear strength of the GelMA-DA/QCS/Gly sponge with the GelMA-DA content of 5 W/V% is approximately 128.36 ± 8.45, 125.17 ± 7.18, 138.29 ± 7.94, and 113.83 ± 9.28 kPa for skin, liver, muscle, and fat, respectively. The GelMA-DA/QCS/Gly sponge displays better antibacterial activity against Gram positive and negative bacteria than the commercial Gelatin hemostatic sponge and CS hemostatic sponge. Animal experiments using rat tail and liver bleeding model show that the hemostasis time and blood loss in the GelMA-DA/QCS/Gly sponge group is approximately 33.3 ± 6.7 s and 0.19 ± 0.05 g, respectively, which is also better than that of the commercial Gelatin hemostatic sponge and CS hemostatic sponge. These results demonstrate promising potential of the GelMA-DA/QCS/Gly sponges for applications as hemostatic wound dressings in clinical surgery and emergent treatment.

Abstract
The severe pain caused by oral ulcers seriously affects food intake and speech, bringing great inconvenience in daily life. Drug-loaded patches are mostly used to treat oral mucosal diseases such as oral ulcers and oral lichen planus, but their effects are limited because of the influences of saliva and muscle movement. To enhance the adhesion of drug-loaded patches used in the oral cavity, we designed antimicrobial peptides (AMPs)-modified polycaprolactone (PCL)-collagen nanosheets (APCNs). The internal layer is a bioactive and antibacterial collagen layer modified with antimicrobial peptides. The backing layer is a hydrophobic PCL layer with good mechanical strength that can reduce external influences. We have characterized and tested the APCNs. First, the APCNs exhibited continuous and strong adhesion to irregular buccal mucosa surfaces under wet conditions and external force action. Antibacterial experiments showed that the APCNs had high antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria. Moreover, the APCNs showed good biocompatibility and promoted the adhesion of fibroblasts in vitro. Furthermore, APCNs treatment accelerated ulcer healing in a Sprague Dawley rat oral ulcer model. Our study developed antibacterial, wet-adhesive, and healing-promoting PCL-collagen nanosheets and demonstrated that these nanosheets could be promising adhesive therapeutic agents for the treatment of oral mucosal ulcers.

Abstract
Repair and regeneration of tissues after injury are complex pathophysiological processes. Microbial infection, malnutrition, and an ischemic and hypoxic microenvironment in the injured area can impede the typical healing cascade. Distinguished by biomimicry of the extracellular matrix, high aqueous content, and diverse functions, hydrogels have revolutionized clinical practices in tissue regeneration owing to their outstanding hydrophilicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Various hydrogels such as smart hydrogels, nanocomposite hydrogels, and acellular matrix hydrogels are widely used for applications ranging from bench-scale to an industrial scale. In this review, some emerging hydrogels in the biomedical field are briefly discussed. The protective roles of hydrogels in wound dressings and their diverse biological effects on multiple tissues such as bone, cartilage, nerve, muscle, and adipose tissue are also discussed. The vehicle functions of hydrogels for chemicals and cell payloads are detailed. Additionally, this review emphasizes the particular characteristics of hydrogel products that promote tissue repair and reconstruction such as anti-infection, inflammation regulation, and angiogenesis.

Abstract
Vascular endothelium dysfunction plays an important role in oncological and pulmonary diseases. Endothelial barrier dysfunction is the initial step of pulmonary vascular remodeling (PVR) and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Upregulation of a pro-autophagy protein Atg101 in the endothelial cells triggered a cascade of intracellular events that leads to endothelial dysfunction through apoptosis. Herein, we proposed a strategy that used endothelial targeting DNA nanostructures to deliver Atg101 siRNA (siAtg101) as a safe, biocompatible "band-aid" to restore pulmonary arterial endothelial barrier integrity within the intricate milieu of pulmonary cells and the pulmonary vasculature. The siAtg101 and aptamer conjugated DNA nanostructures were found to attenuate hypoxia-induced pulmonary endothelial leakiness with surprisingly high selectivity and efficacy. Further in vivo study revealed that functionalized DNA nanostructures likewise attenuated the vascular remodeling in a monocrotaline-induced PVR mouse model. Mechanistically, functionalized DNA nanostructures suppressed PVR by knocking down Atg101, which in turn, downregulated Beclin-1 and subsequently upregulated VE-cadherin to restore endothelial cells' adherin junctions. This work opened a new window for future nanomaterial design that directly addresses the interfacial endothelial cell layer that often stands between the blood and many diseased sites of nanotherapeutic interest.

Abstract
Preparing sponge dressings with stable wet adhesion remains difficult in wound repair, especially in burn wounds with bleeding and large amounts of exudate. In this work, a multifunctional hybrid sponge dressing (DHGT+PHMB+TiO2NPs) with good wet adhesion was developed by combining biomimetic and enzymatic cross-linking reactions. The sponge dressing matrix (DHGT) was prepared by tyrosinase-catalyzed cross-linking of dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (DOPA-HA) and gelatin. The multifunctional hybrid sponge dressing was obtained by loading polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) and titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2NPs) onto the DHGT matrix. The newly developed sponge dressing exhibited high mechanical properties, good wet adhesion, antibacterial activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, biocompatibility, and excellent hemostasis ability. In vivo studies showed that the multifunctional hybrid sponge dressing could significantly accelerate the healing of infected full-thickness burn wounds by inhibiting bacterial growth, accelerating skin tissue reepithelialization, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis, as well as regulating the expression of inflammatory factors and cytokines.

Abstract
Uncontrolled bleeding remains as a leading cause of death in surgical, traumatic, and emergency situations. Management of the hemorrhage and development of hemostatic materials are paramount for patient survival. Owing to their inherent biocompatibility, biodegradability and bioactivity, biopolymers such as polysaccharides and polypeptides have been extensively researched and become a focus for the development of next-generation hemostatic materials. The construction of novel hemostatic materials requires in-depth understanding of the physiological hemostatic process, fundamental hemostatic mechanisms, and the effects of material chemistry/physics. Herein, we have recapitulated the common hemostatic strategies and development status of biopolymer-based hemostatic materials. Furthermore, the hemostatic mechanisms of various molecular structures (components and chemical modifications) are summarized from a microscopic perspective, and the design based on them are introduced.

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
Multi-functionalization of wound dressings with natural polymers is meaningful and remains a challenge. The combination of natural polyanions and polycations appears to be a promising strategy. Still, its performances based on current layer-by-layer self-assembly or homogeneous complexation are mutable and limited. Herein, Ca2+-incorporated carboxymethyl cellulose (Ca/Na-CMC) and hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (HACC) are adopted as the model polyanion and polycation, respectively, to develop multi-functionalized dressings based on interfacial complexation. The dressings exhibit a multilayer structure composed of a polyanion layer (Ca/Na-CMC) for hemostasis and promotion of cell proliferation, a formed polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) layer for structural stability, and a polycation layer (HACC) for antibiosis. Compared to the dressing based on homogeneous complexation, the multilayer dressings show stronger moisture penetrability (around 1,150 g/m2/24 h), higher hemostatic activity, and higher antibacterial rate (up to 100%) and promoted effect on cell proliferation. An in vivo evaluation using a rat full-thickness skin defect model reveals that the multilayer dressings can accelerate wound healing in 2 weeks. Overall, owing to interfacial complexation resulting in separate layers, the performances of polyanions and polycations after combination are more predictable, and their biological functions can be effectively preserved. These findings not only support the extensive application of multilayer dressings but also offer an alternative strategy for multi-functionalizing wound dressings with natural polyanions and polycations.

Abstract
The human skin serves as the body’s first line of defense against the environment. Diabetes mellitus (DM) and 2nd–4th degree burns, on the other hand, affect the skin’s protective barrier features. Burn wounds, hypermetabolic state, and hyperglycemia compromise the
immune system leading to chronic wound healing. Unlike acute wound healing processes, chronic wounds are affected by reinfections which can lead to limb amputation or death. The conventional wound dressing techniques used to protect the wound and provide an optimal environment for repair have
their limitations. Various nanomaterials have been produced that exhibit distinct features to tackle issues affecting wound repair mechanisms. This review discusses the emerging technologies that have been designed to improve wound care upon skin injury. To ensure rapid healing and possibly
prevent scarring, different nanomaterials can be applied at different stages of healing (hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, remodeling).

Abstract
In-stent restenosis (ISR) is seriously affecting the long-term prognosis of vascular interventional therapy and leading to enormous medical burdens. Great efforts have been devoted to developing functional vascular stents with desired features and properties for effective ISR prevention. Here, a multifunctional bionic vascular stent with designed coatings prepared using microfluidic electrospinning technology is presented. Such stents are composed of biocompatible, drug-loaded methylacrylated gelatin-polyethylene glycol diacrylate (GelMA-PEGDA) and polycaprolactone composite nanofibers on 316L stainless steel stents by an easy-to-operate step-by-step spraying method. Benefitting from the addition of polydopamine during the fabrications, the drug-loaded composite nanofibers can adhere well to both the stent and the vascular wall. Furthermore, as the inner fibrous layer of the stent contacting the lumen is equipped with heparin-vascular endothelial growth factor (Hep-VEGF), it plays an anticoagulation role and promotes the growth of endothelial cells; while the outer layer contacts the vascular wall and releases rapamycin slowly, which can restrain smooth muscle proliferation. By implanting this into the rabbit carotid artery, the multi-functional bionic demonstrates that the vascular stent can achieve good anti-thrombosis and in-stent restenosis effects, which indicates its potential values in vascular intervention and other biomedical fields.

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.

Abstract
Control over soft-to-hard tissue interfaces is attracting intensive worldwide research efforts. Herein, a bioactive film-guided soft-hard interface design (SHID) for multi-tissue integrative regeneration is shown. Briefly, a soft bioactive film with good elasticity matchable to native ligament tissue, is incorporated with bone-mimic components (calcium phosphate cement, CPC) to partially endow the soft-film with hard-tissue mimicking feature. The hybrid film is elegantly compounded with a clinical artificial ligament to act as a buffer zone to bridge the soft (ligament) and hard tissues (bone). Moreover, the bioactive film-decorated ligament can be rolled into a 3D bio-instructive implant with spatial-controllable distribution of CPC bioactive motifs. CPC then promotes the recruitment and differentiation of endogenous cells in to the implant inside part, which enables a vascularized bone growth into the implant, and forms a structure mimicking the biological ligament-bone interface, thereby significantly improving osteointegration and biomechanical property. Thus, this special design provides an effective SHID-guided implant-bioactivation strategy unreached by the traditional manufacturing methods, enlightening a promising technology to develop an ideal SHID for translational use in the future.

Abstract
Stable and continuous supply of essential biomolecules is critical to mimic in vivo microenvironments wherein spontaneous generation of various cell types occurs. Here, we report a new platform that enables highly efficient neuronal cell generation of neural stem cells using single metal-organic framework (MOF) nanoparticle-embedded nanopit arrays (SMENA). By optimizing the physical parameters of homogeneous periodic nanopatterns, each nanopit can confine single nMOFs (UiO-67) that are specifically designed for long-term storage and release of retinoic acid (RA). The SMENA platform successfully inhibited physical interaction with cells, which contributed to remarkable stability of the nMOF (RA⊂UiO-67) structure without inducing nanoparticle-mediated toxicity issues. Owing to the continuous and long-term supply of RA, the neural stem cells showed enhanced mRNA expressions of various neurogenesis-related activities. The developed SMENA platform can be applied to other stem cell sources and differentiation lineages and is therefore useful for various stem cell-based regenerative therapies.

Abstract
Wound healing greatly affects patients' health and produces medical burden. Therefore, we developed a multifunctional electrospun nanofiber dressing, which can inhibit methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), drain excessive biofluid to promote wound healing, and simultaneously monitor wound pH level. The polyoxometalate (α-K6P2W18O62·14H2O, P2W18) and oxacillin (OXA) are encapsulated in hydrophobic polylactide (PLA) nanofiber to synergistically inhibit MRSA. The phenol red (PSP) is encapsulated in hydrophilic polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofiber to sensitively indicate wound pH in situ. The PSP/PAN nanofiber is directly electrospun on the patterning OXA/P2W18/PLA nanofiber layer to form a Janus dressing. By taking advantage of the wettability difference between the two layers, the excess biofluid can be drained away from the wound. In addition, the Janus dressing exhibits good biocompatibility and accelerates wound healing via its antimicrobial activity and skin repairing function. This multifunctional Janus electrospun nanofiber dressing would be beneficial for wound management and treatment.

Abstract
Hemostatic agents are pivotal for managing clinical and traumatic bleeding during emergency and domestic circumstances. Herein, a novel functional hybrid nanocomposite material consisting of plasma polymer-modified zeolite 13X and ultra-small gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) was fabricated as an efficient hemostatic agent. The surface of zeolite 13X was functionalised with amine groups which served as binding sites for carboxylate terminated AuNCs. Protein corona studies revealed the enhanced adsorption of two proteins, namely, coagulation factors and plasminogen as a result of AuNCs immobilization on the zeolite surface. The immune response studies showed that the hybrid nanocomposites are effective in reducing inflammation, which combined with a greater attachment of vitronectin, may promote wound healing. The hemostatic potential of the nanocomposite could be directly correlated with their immunomodulatory and anti-haemorrhagic properties. Together, the hybrid nanoengineered material developed in this work could provide a new avenue to tackle life-threatening injuries in civilian and other emergencies.

Abstract
Rapid and effective hemostasis is of great importance to improve the quality of treatment and save lives in emergency, surgical practice, civilian, and military settings. Traditional hemostatic materials such as tourniquets, gauze, bandages, and sponges have shown limited efficacy in the management of uncontrollable bleeding, resulting in widespread interest in the development of novel hemostatic materials and techniques. Benefiting from biocompatibility, degradability, injectability, tunable mechanical properties, and potential abilities to promote coagulation, wound healing, and anti-infection, hydrogel-based biomaterials, especially those on the basis of natural polysaccharides and proteins, have been increasingly explored in preclinical studies over the past few years. Despite the exciting research progress and initial commercial development of several hemostatic hydrogels, there is still a significant distance from the desired hemostatic effect applicable to clinical treatment. In this review, after elucidating the process of biological hemostasis, the latest progress of hydrogel biomaterials engineered from natural polysaccharides and proteins for hemostasis is discussed on the basis of comprehensive literature review. We have focused on the preparation strategies, physicochemical properties, hemostatic and wound-healing abilities of these novel biomaterials, and highlighted the challenges that needed to be addressed to achieve the transformation of laboratory research into clinical practice, and finally presented future research directions in this area.

Abstract
Corneal wound healing is a highly regulated biological process that is of importance for reducing the risk of blinding corneal infections and inflammations. Traditional eye drop was the main approach for promoting corneal wound healing. However, its low bioavailability required a high therapeutic concentration, which can lead to ocular or even systemic side effects. To develop a safe and effective method for treating corneal injury, we fabricated rutin-encapsulated gelatin hydrogel/contact lens composites by dual crosslinking reactions including in situ free radical polymerization and carboxymethyl cellulose/N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide crosslinking. In vitro drug release results evidenced that rutin in the composites could be sustainedly released for up to 14 days. In addition, biocompatibility assay indicated nontoxicity of the composites. Finally, the effect of rutin-encapsulated composites on the healing of the corneal injury in rabbits was investigated. The injury was basically cured in corneas using rutin-encapsulated composites (healing rate, 98.3% ± 0.7%) at 48 h post-operation, while the damage was still present in corneas using the composite (healing rate, 87.0% ± 4.5%). Further proteomics analysis revealed that corneal wound healing may be promoted by the ERK/MAPK and PI3K/AKT signal pathways. These results inform a potential intervention strategy to facilitate corneal wound healing in humans.

Abstract
Extensive full-thickness skin defect lacks self-healing ability. Tissue engineering wound dressing is considered as the most promising approach to promote wound healing. In this study, a series of biocompatible and hemostatic nanofiber dressings were fabricated. Soy protein isolate (SPI) and poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) solutions were mixed in certain proportions for high-voltage electrospinning. The obtained products were coded as SPNF-n (n = 100, 80, 60 and 40, corresponding to the weight percentage of PLLA solution). We found that SPNF-n (n = 100, 80, 60 and 40) could facilitate the adhesion and spread of L929 cells. In particular, SPNF-80 was capable of promoting fibroblast proliferation and diminishing inflammation. Compared with the neat PLLA film (SPNF-100), the biosafety and hemostatic effect of SPNF-80 got significantly improved. The hemostatic effect of SPNF-80 was comparable with that of a commercial gelatin sponge. In vivo wound healing assay demonstrated that SPNF-80 could accelerate the wound healing process by enhancing vascularization, re-epithelization and collagen formation. In conclusion, our results reveal that SPNF-n has good biocompatibility and hemostatic effect, and exhibits great application potential in wound healing.

Abstract
Tissue adhesives have received much attention for their effectiveness in sealing wounds or incisions in clinical surgery, especially in minimally invasive surgery. To meet the safe and smart wound management requirements, ideal tissue adhesives are expected to have high biocompatibility, and be able to accelerate wound closing and healing, and monitor wound healing process. However, few adhesives fit all of the above descriptions. It has been demonstrated that inorganic nanoparticles can directly glue biological tissue based on nano-bridging effect. In this study, self-luminescence porous silicon (LPSi) particles were prepared with degradable and biocompatible properties. In addition, the self-luminescence property of LPSi particles was discovered by In Vivo Imaging System (IVIS) for the first time, which can avoid the limitations of photoluminescence imaging. Due to the oxidation and degradation reaction, LPSi particles not only can be degraded completely in several days, but also showed satisfactory biocompatibility. And their degradation product could promote tube formation of HUVECs. Moreover, owing to the high specific surface area and the outer oxide layer of LPSi particles, LPSi tissue adhesive exhibited strong adhesive strength to pig livers. Furthermore, this adhesive closed wound rapidly, promoted angiogenesis and epidermal regeneration, and facilitated wound healing in a mouse skin incision model. Importantly, the wound healing ratio can be monitored by measuring the self-luminescence intensity of LPSi particles in the wound site. This study reveals that LPSi particles could be employed as a safe and smart wound management tissue adhesive for wound closure, as well as accelerating and monitoring wound healing.

Abstract
Biomaterials have long been explored in regenerative medicine strategies for the repair or replacement of damaged organs and tissues, due to their biocompatibility, versatile physicochemical properties and tuneable mechanical cues capable of matching those of native tissues. However, poor adhesion under wet conditions (such as those found in tissues) has thus far limited their wider application. Indeed, despite its favourable physicochemical properties, facile gelation and biocompatibility, gellan gum (GG)-based hydrogels lack the tissue adhesiveness required for effective clinical use. Aiming at assessing whether substitution of GG by dopamine (DA) could be a suitable approach to overcome this problem, database searches were conducted on PubMed® and Embase® up to 2 March 2021, for studies using biomaterials covalently modified with a catechol-containing substituent conferring improved adhesion properties. In this regard, a total of 47 reports (out of 700 manuscripts, ~6.7%) were found to comply with the search/selection criteria, the majority of which (34/47, ~72%) were describing the modification of natural polymers, such as chitosan (11/47, ~23%) and hyaluronic acid (6/47, ~13%); conjugation of dopamine (as catechol “donor”) via carbodiimide coupling chemistry was also predominant. Importantly, modification with DA did not impact the biocompatibility and mechanical properties of the biomaterials and resulting hydrogels. Overall, there is ample evidence in the literature that the bioinspired substitution of polymers of natural and synthetic origin by DA or other catechol moieties greatly improves adhesion to biological tissues (and other inorganic surfaces).

Abstract
Hydrogel patches with high toughness, stretchability, and adhesive properties are critical to healthcare applications including wound dressings and wearable devices. Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) provides a highly biocompatible and accessible hydrogel platform. However, low tissue adhesion and poor mechanical properties of cross-linked GelMA patches (i.e., brittleness and low stretchability) have been major obstacles to their application for sealing and repair of wounds. Here, we show that adding dopamine (DA) moieties in larger quantities than those of conjugated counterparts to the GelMA prepolymer solution followed by alkaline DA oxidation could result in robust mechanical and adhesive properties in GelMA-based hydrogels. In this way, cross-linked patches with ∼140% stretchability and ∼19 000 J/m3 toughness, which correspond to ∼5.7 and ∼3.3× improvement, respectively, compared to that of GelMA controls, were obtained. The DA oxidization in the prepolymer solution was found to play an important role in activating adhesive properties of cross-linked GelMA patches (∼4.0 and ∼6.9× increase in adhesion force under tensile and shear modes, respectively) due to the presence of reactive oxidized quinone species. We further conducted a parametric study on the factors such as UV light parameters, the photoinitiator type (i.e., lithium phenyl-2,4,6-trimethylbenzoylphosphinate, LAP, versus 2-hydroxy-4'-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-2-methylpropiophenone, Irgacure 2959), and alkaline DA oxidation to tune the cross-linking density and thereby hydrogel compliance for better adhesive properties. The superior adhesion performance of the resulting hydrogel along with in vitro cytocompatibility demonstrated its potential for use in skin-attachable substrates.

Abstract
Bioadhesives reduce operation time and surgical complications. However, in the presence of blood, adhesion strength is often compromised. Inspired by the blood clotting activity of snake venom, we report a visible light-induced blood-resistant hemostatic adhesive (HAD) containing gelatin methacryloyl and reptilase, which is a hemocoagulase (HC) extracted from Bothrops atrox HAD leads to the activation and aggregation of platelets and efficiently transforms fibrinogen into fibrin to achieve rapid hemostasis and seal the tissue. Blood clotting time with HAD was about 45 s compared with 5 to 6 min without HAD. HAD instantaneously achieved hemostasis on liver incision (~45 s) and cut rat tail (~34 s) and reduced blood loss by 79 and 78%, respectively. HAD is also efficient in sealing severely injured liver and abdominal aorta. HAD has great potential to bridge injured tissues by combing hemostasis with adhesives.

Abstract
Rapid and effective hemorrhage control is essential to reduce mortality following traumatic injuries. Herein we developed an organic solvent-free process to prepare carboxymethyl chitin microsphere (CMCHm) in an aqueous two-phase system through heating and freeze-drying. To further enhance the hemostatic performance of CMCHm, we loaded calcium ions and in-situ polymerized dopamine to get modified hemostatic microspheres CMCHm-Ca2+ and CMCHm-PDA, respectively. The size of these microspheres was mainly distributed between 50 μm and 150 μm, and the porous microstructure was observed by SEM. The data of in vitro degradation, cell cytotoxicity, and hemolysis test indicated good biocompatibility of these microspheres. Importantly, CMCHm-Ca2+ and CMCHm-PDA displayed better hemostatic performance compared with CMCHm and the positive controls Yunnan baiyao® and Quickclean®. Especially, the bleeding time was reduced to 59 s (CMCHm-Ca2+) and 45 s (CMCHm-PDA) in the femoral artery/vein cut model, respectively. All these demonstrate CMCHm-Ca2+ and CMCHm-PDA hold great potential for rapid hemostasis.

Bioactive skin-mimicking hydrogel band-aids for diabetic wound healing and infectious skin incision treatment. Bioact Mater 2021; 6:3962-3975. [PMID: 33937595 PMCID: PMC8079829 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2021.04.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 79] [Impact Index Per Article: 26.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2021] [Revised: 03/28/2021] [Accepted: 04/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
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.

Abstract
Electrospun nanofiber is an attractive biomaterial for skin tissue engineering because it mimics the natural fibrous extracellular matrix structure and creates a physical structure suitable for skin tissue regeneration. However, endowing the nanofibrous membranes with antibacterial and angiogenesis functions needs to be explored. In the current study, we aimed to fabricate gelatin/polycaprolactone (GT/PCL) (GT/PCL-Ag-Mg) nanofibers loaded with silver (Ag) and magnesium (Mg) ions for antibacterial activity and pro-angiogenesis function for wound repair. The fabricated GT/PCL membranes had a nanofibrous structure with random arrangement and achieved sustained release of Ag and Mg ions. In vitro results indicated that the GT/PCL-Ag-Mg membranes presented satisfactory cytocompatibility with cell survival and proliferation. In addition, the membranes with Ag demonstrated good antibacterial capacity to both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, and the Mg released from the membranes promoted the tube formation of vascular endothelial cells. Furthermore, in vivo results demonstrated that the GT/PCL-Ag-Mg membrane presented an accelerated wound healing process compared with GT/PCL membranes incorporated with either Ag or Mg ions and pure GT/PCL alone. Superior epidermis formation, vascularization, and collagen deposition were also observed in GT/PCL-Ag-Mg membrane compared with the other membranes. In conclusion, a multifunctional GT/PCL-Ag-Mg membrane was fabricated with anti-infection and pro-angiogenesis functions, serving as a potential metallic ion-based therapeutic platform for applications in wound repair.
