Abstract
Biomaterial-associated bacterial infection is one of the major causes of implant failure. The treatment of such an implant infection typically requires the elimination of bacteria and acceleration of tissue regeneration around implants simultaneously. To address this issue, an ideal implanted material should have the dual functions of bacterial infection therapy and tissue regeneration at the same time. Herein, an enzyme-responsive nanoplatform was fabricated in order to treat implant-associated bacterial infection and accelerate tissue regeneration in vivo. Firstly, Ag nanoparticles were pre-encapsulated in mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) by a one-pot method. Then, poly-l-glutamic acid (PG) and polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH) were assembled by the layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly technique on MSN-Ag to form LBL@MSN-Ag nanoparticles. Furthermore, the LBL@MSN-Ag nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of polydopamine-modified Ti substrates. PG is a homogeneous polyamide composed of an amide linkage, which can be degraded by glutamyl endonuclease secreted by Staphylococcus aureus. Inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP) results proved that the LBL@MSN-Ag particles show a significant enzyme responsive release of Ag ions. Furthermore, results of antibacterial experiments in vitro showed that the Ti substrates modified with an LBL@MSN-Ag nanocoating presented an excellent antibacterial effect. As for an animal experiment in vivo, in a bacterium infected femur-defect rat model, the modified Ti implants effectively treated bacterial infection. More importantly, the results of micro-CT, haematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson's trichrome staining demonstrated that the modified Ti implants significantly promoted the formation of new bone tissue after implantation for 4 weeks. The present system paves the way for developing the next generation of implants with the functions of treating bacterial infection and promoting tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Surface modification of biomaterials is a well-known approach to enable an adequate biointerface between the implant and the surrounding tissue, dictating the initial acceptance or rejection of the implantable device. Since its discovery in early 1990s layer-by-layer (LbL) approaches have become a popular and attractive technique to functionalize the biomaterials surface and also engineering various types of objects such as capsules, hollow tubes, and freestanding membranes in a controllable and versatile manner. Such versatility enables the incorporation of different nanostructured building blocks, including natural biopolymers, which appear as promising biomimetic multilayered systems due to their similarity to human tissues. In this review, the potential of natural origin polymer-based multilayers is highlighted in hopes of a better understanding of the mechanisms behind its use as building blocks of LbL assembly. A deep overview on the recent progresses achieved in the design, fabrication, and applications of natural origin multilayered films is provided. Such films may lead to novel biomimetic approaches for various biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, implantable devices, cell-based biosensors, diagnostic systems, and basic cell biology.

Abstract
We investigated the pH-dependent properties of multilayered films made of chitosan (CHI) and alginate (ALG) and focused on their postassembly response to different pH environments using a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), swelling studies, ζ potential measurements, and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). In an acidic environment, the multilayers presented lower dissipation values and, consequently, higher moduli when compared with the values obtained for the pH used during the assembly (5.5). When the multilayers were exposed to alkaline environments, the opposite behavior occurred. These results were further corroborated by the ability of this multilayered system to exhibit a reversible swelling-deswelling behavior within the pH range from 3 to 9. The changes in the physicochemical properties of the multilayer system were gradual and different from those of individual solubilized polyelectrolytes. This behavior is related to electrostatic interactions between the ionizable groups combined with hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions. Beyond the pH range of 3-9, the multilayers were stabilized by genipin cross-linking. The multilayered films also became more rigid while the pH responsiveness conferred by the ionizable moieties of the polyelectrolytes was preserved. This work demonstrates the versatility and feasibility of LbL methodology to generate inherently pH stimulus-responsive nanostructured films. Surface functionalization using pH responsiveness endows several biomedical applications with abilities such as drug delivery, diagnostics, microfluidics, biosensing, and biomimetic implantable membranes.
