Abstract
Surgical site infection (SSI) caused by pathogenic bacteria leads to delayed wound healing and extended hospitalization. Inappropriate uses of antibiotics have caused a surge in SSI and common antibiotics are proving to be ineffective against SSI. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) can be a potential solution to prevent SSI because of their broad spectrum of antimicrobial activities. In this study, naturally sourced AMPs were studied along with microfibers, fabricated by a novel wet-spinning method using sodium alginate and polycaprolactone. Afterward, fibers were functionalized by the catechol groups of dopamine immobilizing nucleophilic AMPs on the surface. Conjugation between PCL and alginate resulted in fibers with smooth surfaces improving their mechanical strength via hydrogen bonds. Having an average diameter of 220 μm, the mechanical properties of the fiber complied with USP standards for suture size 3-0. Engineered microfibers were able to hinder the growth of Proteus spp., a pathogenic bacterium for at least 60 hours whereas antibiotic ceftazidime failed. When subjected to a linear incisional wound model study, accelerated healing was observed when the wound was closed using the engineered fiber compared to Vicryl. The microfibers promoted faster re-epithelialization compared to Vicryl proving their higher wound healing capacity.

Abstract
Polysaccharide based self-healing and injectable hydrogels with reversible characteristics have widespread potential in protein drug delivery. However, it is a challenge to design the dynamic hydrogel for sequential release of protein drugs. Herein, we developed a novel mussel inspired sequential protein delivery dynamic polysaccharide hydrogel. The nanocomposite hydrogel can be fabricated through doping polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) into reversible covalent bond (imine bonds) crosslinked polymer networks of oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CEC), named PDA NPs@OHA-l-CEC. Besides multiple capabilities (i.e., injection, self-healing, and biodegradability), the nanocomposite hydrogel can achieve sustained and sequential protein delivery of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). PDA NPs doped in hydrogel matrix serve dual roles, acting as secondary protein release structures and form dynamic non-covalent interactions (i.e., hydrogen bonds) with polysaccharides. Moreover, by adjusting the oxidation degree of OHA, the hydrogels with different crosslinking density could control overall protein release rate. Analysis of different release kinetic models revealed that Fickian diffusion drove rapid VEGF release, while the slower BSA release followed a Super Case II transport mechanism. The novel biocompatible system achieved sequential release of protein drugs has potentials in multi-stage synergistic drug deliver based on dynamic hydrogel.

Abstract
Sodium alginate (SA)-based implantable scaffolds with slow-release drugs have become increasingly important in the fields of biomedical and tissue engineering. However, high-molecular-weight SA is difficult to remove from the body due to the lack of SA-degrading enzymes. The very slow degradation properties of SA-based scaffolds limit their applications. Herein, we designed a series of biodegradable oxidized SA (OSA)-based scaffolds through amide bonds, imine bonds and hydrogen bridges between OSA and silk fibroin (SF). SF/OSA-0.4 with a blend ratio of 4/1 was chosen for further polydopamine (PDA) surface modification studies through the optimization of those parameters such as different OSA oxidation degrees, and blend ratios. PDA modified SF/OSA-0.4 (Dopa/SF/OSA-0.4) showed the excellent stability, better stretchable properties, a uniform interconnective porous structure, high thermal stability, a low hemolysis ratio and cytotoxicity. In vitro degradation experiments showed that the degradation rate of SF/OSA was significantly higher than that of SF/SA, but the degradation slowed again after PDA modification. Interestingly, the degradation of Dopa/SF/OSA-0.4 in vivo was significantly faster than that in vitro. Dopa/SF/OSA-0.4 was also more conducive to new tissue growth and collagen bundle formation. Moreover, Dopa/SF/OSA-0.4 improved the absorbability of RhB (model drug) and reduced the sudden release of RhB during the sustained release.

Abstract
Chemotherapy has been widely used to treat cancer; however, the non-specific systemic toxicity of chemotherapeutic agents has always been an issue. Local injection treatment is a strategy used to reduce the undesired adverse effects of chemotherapeutic drugs. In addition, chemotherapeutic agents combined with thermotherapy are effective in further enhancing therapeutic potency. In the present study, we prepared an injectable hydrogel, namely, doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticle (DPN) and magnetite nanoparticle (MNP) embedded in alginate hydrogel (DPN/MNP-HG), where DPN and MNP were the chemotherapeutic and heating agents, respectively, for intratumoral thermo-chemotherapy. Injectable DPN/MNP-HG, which possesses solid-like elastic properties, was conveniently prepared via ionic cross-linking at room-temperature. When exposed to an alternating magnetic field (AMF), DPN/MNP-HG exhibited controllable heat generation with a reversible temperature-rise profile. Regarding the kinetics of DOX release, both with and without AMF, DPN/MNP-HG exhibited a slow initial burst and sustained release profile. In cytotoxicity studies and subcutaneous mouse cancer models, successful thermo-chemotherapy with DPN/MNP-HG resulted in significantly lower cell viability and increased tumor-growth suppression; mice also exhibited good tolerance to injected DPN/MNP-HG both with(+) and without AMF application. In conclusion, the proposed thermo-chemotherapeutic DPN/MNP-HG for local intratumoral injection is a promising formulation for cancer treatment.

Abstract
Patient adherence to chronic therapies can be suboptimal, leading to poor therapeutic outcomes. Dosage forms that enable reduction in dosing frequency stand to improve patient adherence. Variation in gastrointestinal transit time, inter-individual differences in gastrointestinal physiology and differences in physicochemical properties of drugs represent challenges to the development of such systems. To this end, a small intestine-targeted drug delivery system is developed, where prolonged gastrointestinal retention and sustained release are achieved through tissue adhesion of drug pills mediated by an essential intestinal enzyme catalase. Here proof-of-concept pharmacokinetics is demonstrated in the swine model for two drugs, hydrophilic amoxicillin and hydrophobic levodopa. It is anticipated that this system can be applicable for many drugs with a diverse of physicochemical characteristics.

Abstract
3D printing of hydrogels has been widely explored for the rapid fabrication of complex soft structures and devices. However, using 3D printing to customize hydrogels with both adequate adhesiveness and toughness remains a fundamental challenge. Here, we demonstrate mussel-inspired (polydopamine) PDA hydrogel through the incorporation of a classical double network (2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid) PAMPS/(polyacrylamide) PAAm to achieve simultaneously tailored adhesiveness, toughness, and biocompatibility and validate the 3D printability of such a hydrogel into customized architectures. The strategy of combining PDA with PAMPS/PAAm hydrogels leads to favorable adhesion on either hydrophilic or hydrophobic surfaces. The hydrogel also shows excellent flexibility, which is attributed to the reversible cross-linking of PDA and PAMPS, together with the long-chain PAAm cross-linking network. Among them, the reversible cross-linking of PDA and PAMPS is capable of dissipating mechanical energy under deformation. Meanwhile, the long-chain PAAm network contributes to maintaining a high deformation capability. We establish a theoretical framework to quantify the contribution of the interpenetrating networks to the overall toughness of the hydrogel, which also provides guidance for the rational design of materials with the desired properties. Our work manifests a new paradigm of printing adhesive, tough, and biocompatible interpenetrating network hydrogels to meet the requirements of broad potential applications in biomedical engineering, soft robotics, and intelligent and superabsorbent devices.

Abstract
Bacterial infection has traditionally been treated with antibiotics, but their overuse is leading to the development of antibiotic resistance. This may be mitigated by alternative approaches to prevent or treat bacterial infections without utilization of antibiotics. Among the alternatives is the use of photo-responsive antimicrobial nanoparticles and/or nanocomposites, which present unique properties activated by light. In this study, we explored the combined use of titanium oxide and polydopamine to create nanoparticles with photocatalytic and photothermal antibacterial properties triggered by visible or near-infrared light. Furthermore, as a proof-of-concept, these photo-responsive nanoparticles were combined with mussel-inspired catechol-modified hyaluronic acid hydrogels to form novel light-driven antibacterial nanocomposites. The materials were challenged with models of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. For visible light, the average percentage killed (PK) was 94.6 for E. coli and 92.3 for S. aureus. For near-infrared light, PK for E. coli reported 52.8 and 99.2 for S. aureus. These results confirm the exciting potential of these nanocomposites to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance and also to open the door for further studies to optimize their composition in order to increase their bactericidal efficacy for biomedical applications.

Abstract
In this study, we prepared composites made from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium alginate (SA), curcumin (Cur), and polydopamine (PD). The film-forming properties of the composites were researched for potential wound-healing applications. The structures of the polymer blends and composites were studied by FTIR spectroscopy and microscopic observations (AFM and SEM). The mechanical properties were measured using a Zwick Roell testing machine. It was observed that the formation of a polymeric film based on the blend of polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate led to the generation of pores. The presence of curcumin in the composite resulted in the alteration of the blend properties. After solvent evaporation, the polymeric blend of PVA, SA, and curcumin formed a stable polymeric film, but the film showed poor mechanical properties. The addition of polydopamine led to an improvement in the mechanical strength of the film and an increase in its surface roughness. A polymeric film of sodium alginate presented the highest surface roughness value among all the studied specimens (66.6 nm), whereas polyvinyl alcohol showed the lowest value (1.60 nm). The roughness of the composites made of PVA/SA/Cur and PVA/SA/Cur/PD showed a value of about 25 nm. Sodium alginate showed the highest values of Young's modulus (4.10 GPa), stress (32.73 N), and tensile strength (98.48 MPa). The addition of PD to PVA/SA/Cur led to an improvement in the mechanical properties. Improved mechanical properties and appropriate surface roughness may suggest that prepared blends can be used for the preparation of wound-healing materials.

Abstract
Surgical excision, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy are the main approaches used for treating melanoma. Unfortunately, surgical excision usually inevitably causes large area skin defects. In addition, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are often accompanied by adverse reactions and multi-drug resistance. To overcome these limitations, a near-infrared (NIR)- and pH-responsive injectable nanocomposite hydrogel was developed using sodium alginate-graft-dopamine (SD) and biomimetic polydopamine-Fe(III)-doxorubicin nanoparticles (PFD NPs) for treating melanoma and promoting skin regeneration. Firstly, the SD/PFD hydrogel can precisely deliver anti-cancer agents to the tumor site to reduce its loss and off-target toxicity. Then, PFD can convert light into heat energy under NIR irradiation to kill cancer cells. Meanwhile, doxorubicin can be administered continuously and controllably by NIR- and pH-responsive. Additionally, the SD/PFD hydrogel can also relieve tumor hypoxia by decomposing endogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into oxygen (O2). Therefore, photothermal, chemotherapy, and nanozyme synergetic therapy resulted in the tumor suppression. Specifically, the SA-based hydrogel can kill bacteria, scavenge reactive oxygen species, promote the proliferation and migration of cells, and significantly accelerate skin regeneration. Therefore, this study provides a safe and effective strategy for melanoma treatment and wound repair.

Abstract
Drug-resistant bacteria caused by the abuse of antibiotics have brought great challenges to antimicrobial therapy. Herein an antibiotic-free polydopamine (PDA) modified metal-organic framework (PDA-FDM-23) with photothermal-enhanced chemodynamic effect was developed for synergistic antibacterial treatment. The PDA-FDM-23 antibacterial agent exhibited high peroxidase-like activity. Moreover, the process was significantly accelerated by consuming glutathione (GSH) to generate more efficient oxidizing Cu+. In addition, the photothermal therapy (PTT) derived from PDA improved the chemodynamic therapy (CDT) activity triggering a reactive oxygen species explosion. This PTT-enhanced CDT strategy illustrated 100% antibacterial efficiency against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Cytotoxicity and hemolysis analyses fully demonstrated the excellent biocompatibility of PDA-FDM-23. Overall, our work highlighted the strong peroxidase catalytic activity, excellent GSH consumption and photothermal performance of PDA-FDM-23, providing a new strategy for antibiotic-free reactive oxygen species (ROS) synergistic sterilization.

Abstract
Scientists from across the world are being inspired by recent development in polysaccharides and their use in medical administration. Due to their extraordinary physical, chemical, and biological characteristics, polysaccharides are excellent materials for use in medicine. Acidic polysaccharides, which include Pectin, Xanthan gum, Carrageenan, Alginate, and Glycosaminoglycan, are natural polymers with carboxyl groups that are being researched for their potential as drug delivery systems. Most publications do not discuss how the different polysaccharides interact structurally in terms of drug delivery, which limits the scope of their use. The purpose of this review is to inform readers about the structural activity correlations between acidic polysaccharides, their different modification process and effects of combination of various acidic polysaccharides which have been used in drug delivery systems and expanding their potential applications, and bringing new perspectives to the fore.

Multifunctionalized alginate/polydopamine cryogel for hemostasis, antibacteria and promotion of wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 224:1373-1381.

Abstract
Hemostasis and anti-infection are crucial for emergency treatment of severe trauma. Developing functional biomaterial with efficient hemostasis, antibacterial activity and wound healing is of great social significance and clinical value to fast stop bleeding and save lives, but it is still challenged. Here we designed a series of multifunctionalized SA/PDA cryogels by using two-step cross-linking of dopamine and sodium alginate. The resulting interpenetrating network structure had good swelling ratio, excellent mechanical and shape memory properties. Compared with cotton gauze and gelatin sponge, the cryogels exhibited excellent activation of coagulation cascade, more blood cells and platelet adhesion. Due to the action of polydopamine, the cryogel also showed good antioxidant activity and photothermal antibacterial ability assisted by near-infrared radiation, as well as better wound healing performance than gelatin sponge and Tegaderm™ film. Moreover, in the tests of mouse tail docking model, rat femoral artery hemostasis model and non-compressible rabbit liver defect model, the treatment by SA/PDA cryogels presented less blood loss and shorter hemostasis time than cotton gauze and gelatin sponge. Therefore, SA/PDA cryogels with simple preparation process, low cost, and good biocompatibility would be applied in the variety of great clinical applications in bleeding control, anti-infection and wound healing, etc.

Abstract
Increasing concern about age-related diseases, particularly musculoskeletal injuries and orthopedic conditions, highlights the need for strategies such as tissue engineering to address them. Surface modification has been developed to create pro-healing interfaces, personalize scaffolds and provide novel medicines. Polydopamine, a mussel-inspired adhesive polymer with highly reactive functional groups that adhere to nearly all substrates, has gained attention in surface modification strategies for biomaterials. Polydopamine was primarily developed to modify surfaces, but its effectiveness has opened up promising approaches for further applications in bioengineering as carriers and nanoparticles. This review focuses on the recent discoveries of the role of polydopamine as a surface coating material, with focus on the properties that make it suitable for tackling musculoskeletal disorders. We report the evolution of using it in research, and discuss papers involving the progress of this field. The current research on the role of polydopamine in bone, cartilage, muscle, nerve, and tendon regeneration is discussed, thus giving comprehensive overview about the function of polydopamine both in-vitro and in-vivo. Finally, the report concludes presenting the critical challenges that must be addressed for the clinical translation of this biomaterial while exploring future perspectives and research opportunities in this area.

Abstract
The impetus for research into hydrogels based on selectively oxidized polysaccharides has been stimulated by the diversity of potential biomedical applications. Towards the development of a hemostatic wound dressing in this study, we creatively combined the (hemi)acetal and Schiff base bonds to prepare a series of multifunctional cryogels based on dialdehyde pullulan and dopamine. The designed structures were verified by NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. Network parameters and dynamic sorption studies were correlated with environmental scanning microscopy results, thus confirming the successful integration of the two components and the opportunities for finely tuning the structure-properties balance. The viscoelastic parameters (storage and loss moduli, complex and apparent viscosities, zero shear viscosity, yield stress) and the structural recovery capacity after applying a large deformation were determined and discussed. The mechanical stability and hemostatic activity suggest that the optimal combination of selectively oxidized pullulan and dopamine can be a promising toolkit for wound management.

Polydopamine nanoparticles and hyaluronic acid hydrogels for mussel-inspired tissue adhesive nanocomposites. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2022; 134:112589.

Abstract
Bioadhesives are intended to facilitate the fast and efficient reconnection of tissues to restore their functionality after surgery or injury. The use of mussel-inspired hydrogel systems containing pendant catechol moieties is promising for tissue attachment under wet conditions. However, the adhesion strength is not yet ideal. One way to overcome these limitations is to add polymeric nanoparticles to create nanocomposites with improved adhesion characteristics. To further enhance adhesiveness, polydopamine nanoparticles with controlled size prepared using an optimized process, were combined with a mussel-inspired hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogel to form a nanocomposite. The effects of sizes and concentrations of polydopamine nanoparticles on the adhesive profiles of mussel-inspired HA hydrogels were investigated. Results show that the inclusion of polydopamine nanoparticles in nanocomposites increased adhesion strength, as compared to the addition of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), and PLGA-(N-hydroxysuccinimide) (PLGA-NHS) nanoparticles. A nanocomposite with demonstrated cytocompatibility and an optimal lap shear strength (47 ± 3 kPa) was achieved by combining polydopamine nanoparticles of 200 nm (12.5% w/v) with a HA hydrogel (40% w/v). This nanocomposite adhesive shows its potential as a tissue glue for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Herein, the dopamine (DA) was grafted with oxidized sodium alginate (OSA) via Schiff base reduction reaction, aiming to fabricate novel DA-grafted OSA (OSA-DA) hydrogels with enhanced biocompatibility and suitable adhesion for clinical applications. The chemical structures of OSA-DA were characterized via UV-Vis, FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy analysis. The hydrogel characteristics, biocompatibility, as well as the chronic diabetic wound healing efficacy were investigated. Our results demonstrated that DA was grafted with OSA successfully with highest grafting rate of 7.50%. Besides, OSA-DA hydrogels possessed suitable swelling ratio and appropriate adhesion characteristics. Additionally, OSA-DA exhibited satisfactory cytocompatibility and cell affinity in L-929 cells, and superior biocompatibility in SD rats. Moreover, OSA-DA exerted remarkable promoting effects on migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Studies on full-thickness excision chronic diabetic wounds further revealed that OSA-DA hydrogels could accelerate healing via promoting angiogenesis, reducing inflammation response, and stimulating collagen deposition. Overall, our studies would provide basis for SA-based hydrogels as clinical wound dressings.

Abstract
Over the decades, researchers have strived to synthesize and modify nature-inspired biomaterials, with the primary aim to address the challenges of designing functional biomaterials for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Among these challenges, biocompatibility and cellular interactions have been extensively investigated. Some of the most desirable characteristics for biomaterials in these applications are the loading of bioactive molecules, strong adhesion to moist areas, improvement of cellular adhesion, and self-healing properties. Mussel-inspired biomaterials have received growing interest mainly due to the changes in mechanical and biological functions of the scaffold due to catechol modification. Here, we summarize the chemical and biological principles and the latest advancements in production, as well as the use of mussel-inspired biomaterials. Our main focus is the polydopamine coating, the conjugation of catechol with other polymers, and the biomedical applications that polydopamine moieties are used for, such as matrices for drug delivery, tissue regeneration, and hemostatic control. We also present a critical conclusion and an inspired view on the prospects for the development and application of mussel-inspired materials.

DA prodrugs have been studied to cross the BBB, overcoming the limitations of DA hydrophilicity. Therefore, the aim of this work is the synthesis and preliminary characterization of an oxidized alginate-dopamine (AlgOX-DA) conjugate conceived for DA nose-to-brain delivery. METHODS A Schiff base was designed to connect oxidized polymeric backbone to DA and both AlgOX and AlgOX-DA were characterized in terms of Raman, XPS, FT-IR, and 1H- NMR spectroscopies, as well as in vitro mucoadhesive and release tests. RESULTS Data demonstrated that AlgOX-DA was the most mucoadhesive material among the tested ones and it released the neurotransmitter in simulated nasal fluid and in low amounts in phosphate buffer saline. Results also demonstrated the capability of scanning near-field optical microscopy to study the structural and fluorescence properties of AlgOX, fluorescently labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate microstructures. Interestingly, in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cell line up to 100 μg/mL, no toxic effect was derived from AlgOX and AlgOX-DA in 24 h. CONCLUSIONS Overall, the in vitro performances of AlgOX and AlgOX-DA conjugates seem to encourage further ex vivo and in vivo studies in view of nose-to-brain administration.

Abstract
Alginate is one of the natural polymers that are often used in drug- and protein-delivery systems. The use of alginate can provide several advantages including ease of preparation, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and nontoxicity. It can be applied to various routes of drug administration including targeted or localized drug-delivery systems. The development of alginates as a selected polymer in various delivery systems can be adjusted depending on the challenges that must be overcome by drug or proteins or the system itself. The increased effectiveness and safety of sodium alginate in the drug- or protein-delivery system are evidenced by changing the physicochemical characteristics of the drug or proteins. In this review, various routes of alginate-based drug or protein delivery, the effectivity of alginate in the stem cells, and cell encapsulation have been discussed. The recent advances in the in vivo alginate-based drug-delivery systems as well as their toxicities have also been reviewed.

Abstract
Self-healing materials have received increased attention because of their automatic detecting and repairing damage function. In this paper, a novel self-assembly and self-healing bionanocomposite was developed as a coating material for controlled release fertilizers. This nanotechnology-enabled coating is environmentally friendly and highly efficient and possesses a tunable nutrient-releasing characteristic. In the synthesis process, bio-based polyurethane coated urea (BPCU) was prepared by the reaction of bio-polyols with isocyanate. The BPCU was then modified by the layer-by-layer technology to prepare self-assembling modified BPCU (SBPCU). Last, hollow nano-silica (HNS) particles loaded with the sodium alginate (SA) were used to modify SBPCU to fabricate of self-assembling and self-healing BPCU (SSBPCU). The results show that the self-assembled materials were synthesized through electrostatic adsorption. The self-healing was observed through scanning electron microscopy and 3D-X-ray computed tomography, revealing the mechanism was that the repair agent released from HNS reacted with the curing agent to block the pore channels and cracks of the coating. As a result, the SSBPCU exhibited the highest hydrophobicity and surface roughness and thus the slowest release rate. For the first time, this work has designed a novel strategy to solve the bottleneck problem that restricts the development of a controlled-release fertilizer.
