Abstract
In the current work, pure ZnO and Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by the sol-gel autocombustion method. Structural analysis and phase determination were done by X-ray diffraction, and a hexagonal wurtzite structure was exhibited with disparate microstructures for all samples. Mn2+ ions were well composed, as evidenced by the fluctuation of lattice parameters, dislocation density, and lattice strain. Crystallite size decreases from 38.42 to 27.54 nm by increasing the doping concentration. Field emission scanning electron microscopy results shows the combination of evenly distributed spherical-like and hexagon-like structures. Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed that when Mn content increased, the absorption bands red-shifted. The drop in the energy band gap from 3.25 eV for ZnO to 2.99 eV for Zn0.96Mn0.04O was predicted by ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra. This red shift in the energy band gap can be explained by the sp-d exchange interaction between the band electrons of ZnO and localized d electrons of Mn. A study of magnetic properties revealed the change of the diamagnetic attribute for pure ZnO to the room-temperature ferromagnetic attribute of doped samples. In the current study, room-temperature ferromagnetism was achieved for Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles, which can serve as a desirable option for practical applications in the future.

Abstract
Severe bone defects can be caused by various factors, such as tumor resection, severe trauma, and infection. However, bone regeneration capacity is limited up to a critical-size defect, and further intervention is required. Currently, the most common clinical method to repair bone defects is bone grafting, where autografts are the "gold standard." However, the disadvantages of autografts, including inflammation, secondary trauma and chronic disease, limit their application. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is an attractive strategy for repairing bone defects and has been widely researched. In particular, hydrogels with a three-dimensional network can be used as scaffolds for BTE owing to their hydrophilicity, biocompatibility, and large porosity. Self-healing hydrogels respond rapidly, autonomously, and repeatedly to induced damage and can maintain their original properties (i.e., mechanical properties, fluidity, and biocompatibility) following self-healing. This review focuses on self-healing hydrogels and their applications in bone defect repair. Moreover, we discussed the recent progress in this research field. Despite the significant existing research achievements, there are still challenges that need to be addressed to promote clinical research of self-healing hydrogels in bone defect repair and increase the market penetration.

Abstract
Hydrogels resemble natural extracellular matrices and have been widely studied for biomedical applications. Nano-crosslinked dynamic hydrogels combine the injectability and self-healing property of dynamic hydrogels with the versatility of nanomaterials and exhibit unique advantages. The incorporation of nanomaterials as crosslinkers can improve the mechanical properties (strength, injectability, and shear-thinning properties) of hydrogels by reinforcing the skeleton and endowing them with multifunctionality. Nano-crosslinked functional hydrogels that can respond to external stimuli (such as pH, heat, light, and electromagnetic stimuli) and have photothermal properties, antimicrobial properties, stone regeneration abilities, or tissue repair abilities have been constructed through reversible covalent crosslinking strategies and physical crosslinking strategies. The possible cytotoxicity of the incorporated nanomaterials can be reduced. Nanomaterial hydrogels show excellent biocompatibility and can facilitate cell proliferation and differentiation for biomedical applications. This review introduces different nano-crosslinked dynamic hydrogels in the medical field, from fabrication to application. In this review, nanomaterials for dynamic hydrogel fabrication, such as metals and metallic oxides, nanoclays, carbon-based nanomaterials, black phosphorus (BP), polymers, and liposomes, are discussed. We also introduce the dynamic crosslinking method commonly used for nanodynamic hydrogels. Finally, the medical applications of nano-crosslinked hydrogels are presented. We hope that this summary will help researchers in the related research fields quickly understand nano-crosslinked dynamic hydrogels to develop more preparation strategies and promote their development and application.

Abstract
There is an endogenous electric field in living organisms, which plays a vital role in the development and regeneration of bone tissue. Therefore, self-powered piezoelectric material for bone repair has become hot research in recent years. However, the current piezoelectric materials for tissue regeneration still have the shortcomings of lack of biological activity and three-dimensional structure. Here, we proposed a three-dimensional polyurethane foam (PUF) scaffold coated with piezoelectric poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) and modified by a calcium phosphate (CaP) mineralized coating. The preferred scaffold has an open circuit voltage and short circuit current output of 5 V and 200 nA. Combining the physical and chemical properties of the CaP coating, the piezoelectric signal of PVDF-HFP and the three-dimensional structure of PUF, the scaffold exhibits superior promotion of cell osteogenic differentiation and ectopic bone formation in vivo. The mechanism is attributed to an increase in intracellular Ca2+ levels in response to chemical and piezoelectric stimulation with the material. This research not only paves the way for the application of piezoelectric scaffolds to stimulate osteoblasts differentiation in situ, but also lays the foundation for the clinical treatment of long-term osteoporosis.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is constantly seeking novel treatments to address bone injuries in all their varieties. It is necessary to find new ways to create structures that perfectly emulate the native tissue. Self-healing hydrogels have been a breakthrough in this regard, as they are able to reconstitute their links after they have been partially broken. Among the most outstanding biomaterials when it comes to developing these hydrogels for BTE, those polymers of natural origin (e.g., gelatin, alginate) stand out, although synthetics such as PEG or nanomaterials like laponite are also key for this purpose. Self-healing hydrogels have proven to be efficient in healing bone, but have also played a key role as delivery-platforms for drugs or other biological agents. Moreover, some researchers have identified novel uses for these gels as bone fixators or implant coatings. Here, we review the progress of self-healing hydrogels, which hold great promise in the field of tissue engineering.

Abstract
In recent decades, three-dimensional (3D) cell culture technologies have been developed rapidly in the field of tissue engineering and regeneration, and have shown unique advantages and great prospects in the differentiation of stem cells. Herein, the article reviews the progress and advantages of 3D cell culture technologies in the field of stem cell differentiation. Firstly, 3D cell culture technologies are divided into two main categories: scaffoldless and scaffolds. Secondly, the effects of hydrogels scaffolds and porous scaffolds on stem cell differentiation in the scaffold category were mainly reviewed. Among them, hydrogels scaffolds are divided into natural hydrogels and synthetic hydrogels. Natural materials include polysaccharides, proteins, and their derivatives, focusing on hyaluronic acid, collagen and polypeptides. Synthetic materials mainly include polyethylene glycol (PEG), polyacrylic acid (PAA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), etc. In addition, since the preparation techniques have a large impact on the properties of porous scaffolds, several techniques for preparing porous scaffolds based on different macromolecular materials are reviewed. Finally, the future prospects and challenges of 3D cell culture in the field of stem cell differentiation are reviewed. This review will provide a useful guideline for the selection of materials and techniques for 3D cell culture in stem cell differentiation.

Abstract
The regeneration of articular cartilage remains a great challenge due to the difficulty in effectively enhancing spontaneous healing. Recently, the combination of implanted stem cells, suitable biomaterials and bioactive molecules has attracted attention for tissue regeneration. In this study, a novel injectable nanocomposite was rationally designed as a sustained release platform for enhanced cartilage regeneration through integration of a chitosan-based hydrogel, articular cartilage stem cells (ACSCs) and mesoporous SiO2 nanoparticles loaded with anhydroicaritin (AHI). The biocompatible engineered nanocomposite acting as a novel 3D biomimetic extracellular matrix exhibited a remarkable sustained release effect due to the synergistic regulation of the organic hydrogel framework and mesopore channels of inorganic mSiO2 nanoparticles (mSiO2 NPs). Histological assessment and biomechanical tests showed that the nanocomposites exhibited superior performance in inducing ACSCs proliferation and differentiation in vitro and promoting extracellular matrix (ECM) production and cartilage regeneration in vivo. Such a novel multifunctional biocompatible platform was demonstrated to significantly enhance cartilage regeneration based on the sustained release of AHI, an efficient bioactive natural small molecule for ACSCs chondrogenesis, within the hybrid matrix of hydrogel and mSiO2 NPs. Hence, the injectable nanocomposite holds great promise for use as a 3D biomimetic extracellular matrix for tissue regeneration in clinical diagnostics. The anhydroicaritin (AHI) was identified as a bioactive factor for promoting cartilage repair. The hydrogel was designed to achieve sustained AHI release and optimize the microenvironment of cartilage defect sites. The hydrogel exhibited superior advantages for chondrogenic differentiation and cartilage regeneration. The hydrogel holds a great promise for use as functional scaffold for tissue and organ regeneration in the future.

Abstract
Considering the serious damage to aquatic ecosystems and marine life caused by oil spills and oily wastewater discharge, efficient, environment-friendly and sustainable oil/water separation technology has become an inevitable trend for current development. Herein, fabrics are recognized as eco-friendly materials for water treatment due to their good degradability and low cost. Particularly, fabrics with rough structures and natural hydrophilicity/oleophilicity enable the construction of superwetting surfaces for the selective separation of oil/water mixtures and even complex emulsions. Therefore, superwetting fabrics for efficiently solving oil spills and purifying oily wastewater have received extensive attention. Especially, Janus and smart fabrics are highly anticipated to enable the on-demand and sustainable treatment of oil spills and oily wastewater due to their changeable wettability. Moreover, the fabrication of superwetting fabrics with multifunctional performances for oily wastewater purification can further promote their practical industrial applications, such as photocatalytic, self-cleaning, and self-healing characteristics. However, some potential challenges still exist, which urgently need to be systematically summarized to guide the future development of this research field. In this review, firstly, the fundamental theories of wettability and the separation mechanisms based on special wettability are discussed. Then, superwetting fabrics for efficient oil/water separation are systematically reviewed, such as superhydrophobic/superoleophilic (SHB/SOL), superhydrophilic/superoleophobic (SHL/SOB), SHL/underwater superoleophobic (SHL/UWSOB), and UWSOB/underoil superoleophobic (UWSOB/UOSHB) fabrics. Most importantly, we highlight Janus, smart, and multifunctional fabrics based on their superwetting property. Correspondingly, the advantages and disadvantages of each superwetting fabric are comprehensively analyzed. Besides, super-antiwetting fabrics with superhydrophobic/superoleophobic (SHB/SOB) property are also introduced. Finally, the challenges and future research directions are explained.

Abstract
Facilitating cell ingrowth and biomineralized deposition inside filaments of 3DP scaffolds are an ideal bone repair strategy. Here, 3D printed PLGA/HA scaffolds with hydroxyapatite content of 50% (P5H5) and 70% (P3H7) were prepared by optimizing 3D printing inks, which exhibited good tailorability and foldability to meet clinical maneuverability. The supercritical CO2 foaming technology further endowed the filaments of P5H5 with a richer interconnected pore structure (P5H5-C). The finite element and computational fluid dynamics simulation analysis indicated that the porosification could effectively reduce the stress concentration at the filament junction and improved the overall permeability of the scaffold. The results of in vitro experiments confirmed that P5H5-C promoted the adsorption of proteins on the surface and inside of filaments, accelerated the release of Ca and P ions, and significantly upregulated osteogenesis (Col I, ALP, and OPN)- and angiogenesis (VEGF)-related gene expression. Subcutaneous ectopic osteogenesis experiments in nude mice further verified that P5H5-C facilitated cell growth inside filaments and biomineralized deposition, as well as significantly upregulated the expression of osteogenesis- and angiogenesis-related genes (Col I, ALP, OCN, and VEGF) and protein secretion (ALP, RUNX2, and VEGF). The porosification of filaments by supercritical CO2 foaming provided a new strategy for accelerating osteogenesis of 3DP implants.

Abstract
Materials derived from natural plants and animals have great potential for transdermal drug delivery. Polysaccharides are widely derived from marine, herbal, and microbial sources. Compared with synthetic polymers, polysaccharides have the advantages of non-toxicity and biodegradability, ease of modification, biocompatibility, targeting, and antibacterial properties. Currently, polysaccharide-based transdermal drug delivery vehicles, such as hydrogel, film, microneedle (MN), and tissue scaffolds are being developed. The addition of polysaccharides allows these vehicles to exhibit better-swelling properties, mechanical strength, tensile strength, etc. Due to the stratum corneum’s resistance, the transdermal drug delivery system cannot deliver drugs as efficiently as desired. The charge and hydration of polysaccharides allow them to react with the skin and promote drug penetration. In addition, polysaccharide-based nanotechnology enhances drug utilization efficiency. Various diseases are currently treated by polysaccharide-based transdermal drug delivery devices and exhibit promising futures. The most current knowledge on these excellent materials will be thoroughly discussed by reviewing polysaccharide-based transdermal drug delivery strategies.

Effect of carbon numbers and structures of monosaccharides on the glycosylation and emulsion stabilization ability of gelatin. Food Chem 2022; 389:133128. [PMID: 35512506 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2022.133128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2021] [Revised: 04/24/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Herein, the effect of saccharide glycosylation by nine monosaccharides on bovine bone gelatin for the stabilization of fish oil-loaded emulsions was explored. The gelatin modification was analyzed and then the emulsifying properties of monosaccharide-modified gelatins were analyzed at pH 9.0 and 3.0. The results demonstrated that glycosylated gelatin structure, droplet stability, creaming stability, and liquid-gel transition time were dependent on monosaccharide carbon numbers, monosaccharide structures, and solution pH. Glycosylation modification of gelatins did not obviously change the emulsion droplet stability at pH 9.0, whereas it increased the emulsion droplet stability at pH 3.0. Glycosylation modification of gelatins did not obviously change the emulsion creaming index values (5.1%-8.4% at pH 9.0 and 25.8%-33.1% at pH 3.0). Three-carbon and four-carbon monosaccharides glycosylation significantly increased emulsion liquid-gel transition times. This work provided useful information to understand the effects of carbon numbers and structures of monosaccharides on the protein modification.

Preparation and Characterization of Polysaccharide-Based Hydrogels for Cutaneous Wound Healing. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14091716. [PMID: 35566885 PMCID: PMC9105569 DOI: 10.3390/polym14091716] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Revised: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 04/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Natural hydrogels are growing in interest as a priority for wound healing. Plant polysaccharides have a variety of biological pharmacological activities, and chitosan hydrogels have proven strong antimicrobial effects, but hydrogels prepared with polysaccharides alone have certain deficiencies. Polysaccharides from flowers of Lonicera japonica Thunb. (LP) and the aerial parts of Mentha canadensis L. (MP) were extracted and oxidized by sodium periodate (NaIO4) and then cross-linked with oxidized-carboxymethylated chitosan (O-CCS) to develop oxidized plant- polysaccharides-chitosan hydrogels (OPHs). SEM observation showed that OPHs had porous interior structures with interconnecting pores. The OPHs showed good swelling, water-retention ability, blood coagulation, cytocompatibility properties, and low cytotoxicity (classed as grade 1 according to United States Pharmacopoeia), which met the requirements for wound dressings. Then the cutaneous wound-healing effect was evaluated in BALB/C mice model, after 7 days treatment, the wound-closure rate of OPHs groups were all greater than 50%, and after 14 days, all were greater than 90%, while the value of the control group was only 72.6%. Of them, OPH-2 and OPH-3 were more favorable to the wound-healing process, as the promotion was more significant. The plant polysaccharides and CS-based hydrogel should be a candidate for cutaneous wound dressings.
