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
Various functional polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles have been developed to treat biofilms in recent years; however, in-depth knowledge of how the physicochemical properties of the nanoparticles impact their penetration and accumulation in biofilms is lacking. In this work, PDA nanoparticles of 15, 60, 90, and 200 nm sizes were synthesized and carboxyl, methoxy, and amine groups were introduced to the particle surface to control their surface charges, and then the penetration and accumulation of these PDA nanoparticles in S. aureus biofilms were investigated. The PDA nanoparticles of approximately 60 nm size (PDA60) showed higher penetration and accumulation abilities than nanoparticles of other sizes, and the positively charged amine groups introduced onto the surfaces of PDA60 nanoparticles were more effective than carboxyl or methoxy groups in promoting the interactions of the nanoparticles with the biofilm. The PDA60 nanoparticles with amine surface groups exhibited good photothermal properties, and confocal laser scanning microscopy revealed that they were able to accumulate in the biofilm in significant amounts, which upon irradiation with a laser of 808 nm wavelength showed a high bactericidal rate (97.1%) against the biofilm. The findings of this work provide guidance for the design and development of nanoparticles for antibiofilm application.

Light- and Melanin Nanoparticle-Induced Cytotoxicity in Metastatic Cancer Cells. Pharmaceutics 2021; 13:pharmaceutics13070965.

Abstract
Melanin nanoparticles are known to be biologically benign to human cells for a wide range of concentrations in a high glucose culture nutrition. Here, we show cytotoxic behavior at high nanoparticle and low glucose concentrations, as well as at low nanoparticle concentration under exposure to (nonionizing) visible radiation. To study these effects in detail, we developed highly monodispersed melanin nanoparticles (both uncoated and glucose-coated). In order to study the effect of significant cellular uptake of these nanoparticles, we employed three cancer cell lines: VM-M3, A375 (derived from melanoma), and HeLa, all known to exhibit strong macrophagic character, i.e., strong nanoparticle uptake through phagocytic ingestion. Our main observations are: (i) metastatic VM-M3 cancer cells massively ingest melanin nanoparticles (mNPs); (ii) the observed ingestion is enhanced by coating mNPs with glucose; (iii) after a certain level of mNP ingestion, the metastatic cancer cells studied here are observed to die—glucose coating appears to slow that process; (iv) cells that accumulate mNPs are much more susceptible to killing by laser illumination than cells that do not accumulate mNPs; and (v) non-metastatic VM-NM1 cancer cells also studied in this work do not ingest the mNPs, and remain unaffected after receiving identical optical energy levels and doses. Results of this study could lead to the development of a therapy for control of metastatic stages of cancer.

Abstract
Melanin-mimetic polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) are emerging as promising candidates for topical and transdermal drug delivery because they mimic melanin, a naturally occurring skin pigment. However, our knowledge of their interactions with human skin remains limited. Hence, we set out to investigate the role of PDA NP surface chemistry in modulating their skin deposition. PDA NPs were synthesized by base-catalyzed oxidative self-polymerization of dopamine and functionalized with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) bearing different termini to obtain neutral, anionic, cationic, and hydrophobic PEGylated NPs. NPs were characterized by dynamic light scattering, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The NPs were then labeled with rhodamine B, and their skin interactions were investigated both in vitro, using a Strat-M membrane, and ex vivo, using excised whole thickness human skin. In vitro diffusion studies revealed that the NPs did not permeate transdermally, rather the NPs accumulated in the Strat-M membrane after 24 h of incubation. Membrane deposition of the NPs showed a strong dependence on surface chemistry, with anionic (unmodified and carboxyl-terminated PEGylated) NPs achieving the highest accumulation, followed by neutral and cationic NPs, whereas hydrophobic NPs achieved the lowest degree of accumulation. In ex vivo permeation studies, we observed that surface modification of PDA NPs with PEG serving as an antifouling coating is essential to maintaining colloidal stability upon skin contact. Moreover, anionic PEGylated NPs were able to achieve 78% skin accumulation, which was significantly higher than neutral and cationic NPs (51 and 34% accumulation, respectively). Our findings provide important insights into the role of surface chemistry in enhancing the skin accumulation of melanin-mimetic PDA NPs as potential sunscreens and carriers for skin-targeted treatments.

Abstract
Melanin is a biopolymer of easy and cheap availability that can be found among the living organisms and excels for its biocompatibility and biodegradability properties, along with scavenging abilities, metal chelation and electronic conductance. This biomaterial can act as a nanocarrier or agent itself to be used in diverse biomedical applications, such as imaging, controlled drug release, bioengineering and bioelectronics, antioxidant applications and theranostics. In this review, the melanin source and structure, its physicochemical properties, melanin-like polymers as well as the differences among those will be elucidated. The focus will be the discussion of the current approaches that apply melanin nanoparticles (MNPs) and melanin-like nanoparticles (MLNPs) in the biomedical field, to which promising capabilities have been attributed, regarding optoelectronic, photoconductivity and photoacoustic. The use of these nanoparticles, in the last 10 years, in topics as drug delivery or theranostics will be detailed and the major achievements will be discussed. Overall, we anticipate that melanin can drive us toward a new paradigm in medical diagnostics and treatments, since applying melanin features possibly its use as a theranostics nanocarrier agent, not only for diagnostics, but also for photothermal therapy and controlled drug release through chemotherapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: We present here a timely and opportune review article focusing the significant potential of melanin nanoparticles in biomedical applications, which will be discussed thoroughly. This biomaterial presents multiple capabilities that may be taken into consideration towards cancer theranostics, expecting a high future impact in the nanosized-platforms design and performance.

Abstract
In this work, underwater adhesion is achieved between biocompatible hydrogels and a suite of substrates. Surface roughness, which is typically detrimental for adhesion in air, is shown to be beneficial for underwater adhesion. Contact between the hydrogels with macroscopically flat substrates, and the resulting nonspecific chemical interaction, is facilitated by surface roughness, which enables drainage of the lubricating fluid layer. Hydrogel composition plays an important role in tuning the gel elasticity and interaction with the substrate. Hydrogels that are adhesive on two sides are synthesized for potential use as versatile adhesives in various applications.
