Biomed Mater 2024; 19:055010. [PMID: 38917818 DOI: 10.1088/1748-605x/ad5ba4] [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: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024]
Abstract
N-chloro-N-fluorobenzenesulfonylamide (CFBSA), was a novel chlorinating reagent, which exhibits potential antibacterial activities. In this study, CFBSA was confirmed as a wide-broad antimicrobial and bactericidal drug against different gram-negative bacteria, gram-positive bacteria and fungi, while it was found to have low cytotoxicity for eukaryotic cells. In addition, microorganism morphology assay and oxidative stress test was used to determine the antimicrobial mechanisms of CFBSA. According to the results, CFBSA probably had a target on cell membrane and killed microorganism by disrupting its cell membrane. Then, CFBSA was first combined with poly(L-lactide-co-caprolactone) (PLCL)/SF via electrospinning and applied in wound dressings. The characterization of different PLCL/SF of CFBSA-loaded nanofibrous mats was investigated by SEM, water contact angle, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, cell compatibility and antimicrobial test. CFBSA-loaded PLCL/SF nanofibrous mats showed excellent antimicrobial activities. In order to balance of the biocompatibility and antibacterial efficiency, SP-2.5 was selected as the ideal loading concentration for further application of CFBSA-loaded PLCL/SF. In conclusion, the electrospun CFBSA-loaded PLCL/SF nanofibrous mat with its broad-spectrum antimicrobial and bactericidal activity and good biocompatibility showed enormous potential for wound dressing.

Abstract
Wound healing can result in complex problems, and discovering an effective method to improve the healing process is essential. Polymeric biomaterials have structures similar to those identified in the extracellular matrix of the tissue to be regenerated and also avoid chronic inflammation, and immunological reactions. To obtain smart and effective dressings, bioactive agents, such as essential oils, are also used to promote a wide range of biological properties, which can accelerate the healing process. Therefore, we intend to explore advances in the potential for applying hybrid materials in wound healing. For this, fifty scientific articles dated from 2010 to 2023 were investigated using the Web of Science, Scopus, Science Direct, and PubMed databases. The principles of the healing process, use of polymers, type and properties of essential oils and processing techniques, and characteristics of dressings were identified. Thus, the plants Syzygium romanticum or Eugenia caryophyllata, Origanum vulgare, and Cinnamomum zeylanicum present prospects for application in clinical trials due to their proven effects on wound healing and reducing the incidence of inflammatory cells in the site of injury. The antimicrobial effect of essential oils is mainly due to polyphenols and terpenes such as eugenol, cinnamaldehyde, carvacrol, and thymol.

Abstract
There is an increasing demand for stable and durable wound dressings to treat burn injuries and infections. Bioactive electrospun nanofibrous mats with antibacterial properties are promising for wound dressing usage. Electrospinning of biopolymers for wound dressing applications needs post-spinning crosslinking to prevent mat dissolution in moist wound environments. Here, we prepared durable wound dressing by using the Dopamine (DA) polymerization crosslinking in Alginate (ALG)/Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibrous mats, which are developed by Ciprofloxacin (CIP) and Zinc oxide (ZO). The nanofibrous mats were investigated by FESEM, FTIR, mechanical strength, water contact angle, degradation, degree of swelling, and WVTR tests. The analyses demonstrate the nanofibrous mats with uniform and unbranched fibers, with a hydrophilic nature, which was porous, durable, and stable. Also, it showed the CIP and ZO addition enhanced their durability by crosslinking reinforcement. In addition, the drug release and antibacterial assays demonstrated the pH-sensitive release with more drug release at higher pH (bacterial invasion) and impressive antibacterial activity (up to 99 %). In the burn wound model in rats, the ALG/PVA/DA/CIP/ZO nanofibrous mats displayed excellent wound healing ability in wound closure and tissue regeneration. Also, complete re-epithelization and remodeling and highest collagen synthesis in histological assessment.

Alginate hydrogel-PCL/gelatin nanofibers composite scaffold containing mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes sustain release for regeneration of tympanic membrane perforation. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 262:130141.

Abstract
Exosomes are among the most effective therapeutic tools for tissue engineering. This study demonstrates that a 3D composite scaffold containing exosomes can promote regeneration in rat tympanic membrane perforation (TMP). The scaffolds were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), degradation, PBS adsorption, swelling, porosity, and mechanical properties. To confirm the isolation of exosomes from human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs), western blot, SEM, and dynamic light scattering (DLS) were performed. The Western blot test confirmed the presence of exosomal surface markers CD9, CD81, and CD63. The SEM test revealed that the isolated exosomes had a spherical shape, while the DLS test indicated an average diameter of 82.5 nm for these spherical particles. MTT assays were conducted to optimize the concentration of hAMSCs-exosomes in the hydrogel layer of the composite. Exosomes were extracted on days 3 and 7 from an alginate hydrogel containing 100 and 200 μg/mL of exosomes, with 100 μg/mL identified as the optimal value. The optimized composite scaffold demonstrated improved growth and migration of fibroblast cells. Animal studies showed complete tympanic membrane regeneration (TM) after five days. These results illustrate that a scaffold containing hAMSC-exosomes can serve as an appropriate tissue-engineered scaffold for enhancing TM regeneration.

Abstract
Polyelectrolyte-surfactant complexes (PESCs) have garnered significant attention due to their extensive range of biological and industrial applications. Most present applications are predominantly used in liquid or emulsion states, which limits their efficacy in solid material-based applications. Herein, pre-hydrolyzed polyacrylonitrile (HPAN) and quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) are employed to produce PESC electrospun membranes via electrospinning. The formation process of PESCs in a solution is observed. The results show that the degree of PAN hydrolysis and the varying alkyl chain lengths of surfactants affect the rate of PESC formation. Moreover, PESCs/PCL hybrid electrospun membranes are fabricated, and their antibacterial activities against both Gram-negative Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) are investigated. The resulting electrospun membranes exhibit high bactericidal efficacy, which enables them to serve as candidates for future biomedical and filtration applications.

Abstract
Microbial infections of surgical sites and other wounds represent a major impediment for patients. Multifunctional low-cost dressings promoting tissue reparation while preventing infections are of great interest to medical professionals. Here, clay-based laponite nanodiscs (LAP) were loaded with the antibacterial drug kanamycin (KANA) before being embedded into a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) membrane and coated with the biopolymer chitosan (CS). Results indicated that these biocompatible materials combined the excellent capacity of LAP for controlled drug release with the mechanical robustness of PLGA and the antibacterial properties of CS as well as its hydrophilicity to form a composite highly suitable as an infection-preventing wound dressing. In vitro, PLGA/LAP/KANA/CS released drugs in a sustainable manner over 30 d, completely inhibited the growth of infectious bacteria, prompted the adhesion fibroblasts, and accelerated their proliferation 1.3 times. In vivo, the composite enabled the fast healing of infected full-thickness skin wounds with a 96.19 % contraction after 14 d. During the healing process, PLGA/LAP/KANA/CS stimulated re-epithelization, reduced inflammation, and promoted both angiogenesis and the formation of dense collagen fibers with an excellent final collagen volume ratio of 89.27 %. Thus, multifunctional PLGA/LAP/KANA/CS made of low-cost components demonstrated its potential for the treatment of infected skin wounds.

Abstract
Nanomaterials have revolutionized scientific research due to their exceptional physical and chemical capabilities. Carbon-based nanomaterials such as graphene and its derivates have excellent electrical, optical, thermal, physical, and chemical properties that have made them indispensable in several industries worldwide, including medicine, electronics, and energy. By incorporating carbon-based nanomaterials as nanofillers in electrospun nanofibers (ESNFs), smoother and highly conductive nanofibers can be achieved that possess a large surface area and porosity. This approach provides a superior alternative to traditional materials in the development of improved biosensors. Carbon-based ESNFs, among the most exciting new-generation materials, have many applications, including filtration, pharmaceuticals, biosensors, and membranes. The electrospinning technique is a highly efficient and cost-effective method for producing desired nanofibers compared to other methods. Various types of natural and synthetic organic polymers have been successfully utilized in solution electrospinning to produce nanofibers directly. To create diagnostics devices, various biomolecules like antibodies, enzymes, aptamers, ligands, and even cells can be bound to the surface of nanofibers. Electrospun nanofibers can serve as an immobilization matrix to create a biofunctional surface. Thus, biosensors with desired features can be produced in this way. This study comprehensively reviews biosensors that integrate nanodiamonds, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, graphene oxide, and carbon dots into electrospun nanofibers.

Abstract
Burn injury is a serious public health problem and scientists are continuously aiming to develop promising biomimetic dressings for effective burn wound management. In this study, a greater efficacy in burn wound healing and the associated mechanisms of α-lactalbumin (ALA) based electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds (ENs) as compared to other regenerative protein scaffolds were established. Bovine serum albumin (BSA), collagen type I (COL), lysozyme (LZM) and ALA were separately blended with poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) to fabricate four different composite ENs (LZM/PCL, BSA/PCL, COL/PCL and ALA/PCL ENs). The hydrophilic composite scaffolds exhibited an enhanced wettability and variable mechanical properties. The ALA/PCL ENs demonstrated higher levels of fibroblast proliferation and adhesion than the other composite ENs. As compared to PCL ENs and other composite scaffolds, the ALA/PCL ENs also promoted a better maturity of the regenerative skin tissues and showed a comparable wound healing effect to Collagen spongeⓇ on third-degree burn model. The enhanced wound healing activity of ALA/PCL ENs compared to other ENs could be attributed to their ability to promote serotonin production at wound sites. Collectively, this investigation demonstrated that ALA is a unique protein with a greater potential for burn wound healing as compared to other regenerative proteins when loaded in the nanofibrous scaffolds.

Abstract
The treatment of wounds is a serious problem all over the world and imposes a huge financial burden on each and every nation. For a long time, researchers have explored wound dressing that speeds up wound healing. Traditional wound dressing does not respond effectively to the wound-healing process as expected. Therapeutic active derived from plant extracts and extracted bioactive components have been employed in various regions of the globe since ancient times for the purpose of illness, prevention, and therapy. About 200 years ago, most medical treatments were based on herbal remedies. Especially in the West, the usage of herbal treatments began to wane in the 1960s as a result of the rise of allopathic medicine. In recent years, however, there has been a resurgence of interest in and demand for herbal medicines for a number of reasons, including claims about their efficacy, shifting consumer preferences toward natural medicines, high costs and negative side effects of modern medicines, and advancements in herbal medicines brought about by scientific research and technological innovation. The exploration of medicinal plants and their typical uses could potentially result in advanced pharmaceuticals that exhibit reduced adverse effects. This review aims to present an overview of the utilization of nanocarriers in plant-based therapeutics, including its current status, recent advancements, challenges, and future prospects. The objective is to equip researchers with a comprehensive understanding of the historical background, current state, and potential future developments in this emerging field. In light of this, the advantages of nanocarriers based delivery of natural wound healing treatments have been discussed, with a focus on nanofibers, nanoparticles, nano-emulsion, and nanogels.

Abstract
Wound healing is a complex process that involves restoring the structure of damaged tissues through four phases: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Wound dressings are the most common treatment used to cover wounds, reduce infection risk and the loss of physiological fluids, and enhance wound healing. Despite there being several types of wound dressings based on different materials and fabricated through various techniques, polymeric films have been widely employed due to their biocompatibility and low immunogenicity. Furthermore, they are non-invasive, easy to apply, allow gas exchange, and can be transparent. Among different methods for designing polymeric films, solvent casting represents a reliable, preferable, and highly used technique due to its easygoing and relatively low-cost procedure compared to sophisticated methods such as spin coating, microfluidic spinning, or 3D printing. Therefore, this review focuses on the polymeric dressings obtained using this technique, emphasizing the critical manufacturing factors related to pharmaceuticals, specifically discussing the formulation variables necessary to create wound dressings that demonstrate effective performance.

Abstract
The skin, the largest organ in the human body, mainly plays a protective role. Once damaged, it can lead to acute or chronic wounds. Wound healing involves a series of complex physiological processes that require ideal wound dressings to promote it. The current wound dressings have characteristics such as high porosity and moderate water vapor permeability, but they are limited in antibacterial properties and cannot protect wounds from microbial infections, which can delay wound healing. In addition, several dressings contain antibiotics, which may have bad impacts on patients. Natural active substances have good biocompatibility; for example, ginsenoside Rg3 has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant, and other biological activities, which can effectively promote wound healing. Some researchers have developed various polymer wound dressings loaded with ginsenoside Rg3 that have good biocompatibility and can effectively promote wound healing and reduce scar formation. This article will focus on the application and mechanism of ginsenoside Rg3-loaded dressings in wounds.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are one of the most severe health problems that affect millions of people worldwide. These types of injuries impair healing and lead to life-threatening complications. Therefore, suitable wound dressing materials are essential to prevent the risk of infection and to provide an excellent healing environment. The present research reports the development of an electrospun Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA)/Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/Chitosan (CS) wound dressing material, produced via emulsion electrospinning in a single step using homogeneous gel-like suspensions of two different and incompatible polymer solutions. The electrospun PLLA/PVA/CS fiber mats were loaded with two different amounts of Hypericum perforatum L. (HP) (2.5% and 5.0% owf). The results revealed that the produced electrospun PLLA/PVA/CS fiber mats displayed ideal properties as a wound dressing due to a total porosity, wettability, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), and swelling properties similar to those reported for the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the skin, mainly when 2.5% owf HP was incorporated. Moreover, the electrospun PLLA/PVA/CS fiber mats containing HP were able to prevent the growth of gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) without causing cytotoxicity to normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF). These findings suggest that these electrospun dressing mats are helpful for preventing wound infections as well as an appropriate support and microenvironment for wound healing.

Abstract
Gelatin (GE) is a renewable biopolymer with abundant active groups that are beneficial for manufacturing functional biomaterials via GE modification. An antibacterial fibrous GE film was prepared by electrospinning the modified GE in an aqueous solution. The original GE was modified by reacting it with N,N-dimethyl epoxypropyl octadecyl ammonium chloride (QAS), and then it was cross-linked with transglutaminase (TGase). FTIR analysis illustrated that QAS was grafted onto GE through the epoxy ring-opening reaction, and the modification did not influence the main GE skeleton structure. The investigation of the solution properties showed that the grafted cationic QAS group was the main factor that decreased the surface tension of the solution, increased the electrical conductivity of the solution, and endowed GE with antibacterial activity. TGase cross-linking clearly influenced the rheological properties such that the flow pattern of the spinning solution varied from Newton-type to shear thinning, and the aqueous solution of GE-QAS-TGs transformed from liquid-like to solid-like and even induced gelatinization with increasing TGase content. A satisfactory fibrous morphology of 200-500 nm diameter was obtained using a homemade instrument under the optimized electrospinning conditions of a temperature of 35 °C, a distance between electrodes of 12 cm, and a voltage of 15 kV. The study of film properties showed that the antibacterial activity of the fibrous GE film depended only on the grafted quaternary ammonium, whereas the thermostability, wettability, and permeability were greatly influenced by both the TGase cross-linking and film-forming methods. Cytotoxicity was tested using the CCK-8 and live/dead kit staining methods in vitro, which showed that the modified GE had good biocompatibility.

Abstract
The emergence of resistance to pathogenic bacteria has resulted from the misuse of antibiotics used in wound treatment. Therefore, nanomaterial-based agents can be used to overcome these limitations. In this study, polycaprolactone (PCL)/gelatin/graphene oxide electrospun nanofibers (PGO) are functionalized via plasma treatment with the monomeric groups diallylamine (PGO-M1), acrylic acid (PGO-M2), and tert-butyl acrylate (PGO-M3) to enhance the action against bacteria cells. The surface functionalization influences the morphology, surface wettability, mechanical properties, and thermal stability of PGO nanofibers. PGO-M1 and PGO-M2 exhibit good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, whereas PGO-M3 tends to reduce their antibacterial properties compared to PGO nanofibers. The highest proportion of dead bacteria cells is found on the surface of hydrophilic PGO-M1, whereas live cells are colonized on the surface of hydrophobic PGO-M3. Likewise, PGO-M1 shows a good interaction with L929, which is confirmed by the high levels of adhesion and proliferation with respect to the control. All the results confirm that surface functionalization can be strategically used as a tool to engineer PGO nanofibers with controlled antibacterial properties for the fabrication of highly versatile devices suitable for different applications (e.g., health, environmental pollution).

Abstract
Wound infection has threatened the health of humans, and developing novel dressings by integrating infection detection and wound treatment in biomaterials is urgently required in the medical industry. In this study, we report a facile strategy to develop curcumin functionalized poly(ε-caprolactone) and gelatin composite fibrous membranes with pH real-time monitoring and antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. The developed curcumin-functionalized composite fibers displayed highly sensitive and visible response to the variation of the pH value of a buffer solution in the range of 5.6-8.6. In addition, the resultant fibrous membrane showed obviously enhanced antibacterial efficiency against both E. coli and S. aureus and no obvious cytotoxicity to human dermal fibroblasts when the curcumin content was less than 5 wt %. More importantly, 3 wt % curcumin-functionalized composite membrane exhibited excellent anti-inflammatory activities, good antioxidant activity of ca. 82%, and significantly decreased expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6 in vitro (p < 0.001). Furthermore, subcutaneous embedding experiments showed that the 3 wt % curcumin-functionalized membrane significantly promoted cell penetration, recruited less macrophages, and facilitated collage deposition. Therefore, the curcumin-functionalized composite fibers could be employed to fabricate multifunctional dressings for the future treatment of chronic wounds.

Abstract
Composite biocompatible scaffolds, obtained using the electrospinning (ES) technique, are highly promising for biomedical application thanks to their high surface area, porosity, adjustable fiber diameter, and permeability. However, the combination of synthetic biodegradable (such as poly(ε-caprolactone) PCL) and natural (such as gelatin Gt) polymers is complicated by the problem of low compatibility of the components. Previously, this problem was solved by PCL grafting and/or Gt cross-linking after ES molding. In the present study, composite fibrous scaffolds consisting of PCL and Gt were fabricated by the electrospinning (ES) method using non-functionalized PCL1 or NHS-functionalized PCL2 and hexafluoroisopropanol as a solvent. To provide covalent binding between PCL2 and Gt macromolecules, NHS-functionalized methyl glutarate was synthesized and studied in model reactions with components of spinning solution. It was found that selective formation of amide bonds, which provide complete covalent bonding of Gt in PCL/Gt composite, requires the presence of weak acid. With the use of the optimized ES method, fibrous mats with different PCL/Gt ratios were prepared. The sample morphology (SEM), hydrolytic resistance (FT-IR), cell adhesion and viability (MTT assay), cell penetration (fluorescent microscopy), and mechanical characteristics of the samples were studied. PCL2-based films with a Gt content of 20 wt% have demonstrated the best set of properties.

Abstract
Cellular metabolisms produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) which are essential for cellular signaling pathways and physiological functions. Nevertheless, ROS act as “double-edged swords” that have an unstable redox balance between ROS production and removal. A little raise of ROS results in cell proliferation enhancement, survival, and soft immune responses, while a high level of ROS could lead to cellular damage consequently protein, nucleic acid, and lipid damages and finally cell death. ROS play an important role in various pathological circumstances. On the contrary, ROS can show selective toxicity which is used against cancer cells and pathogens. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is based on three important components including a photosensitizer (PS), oxygen, and light. Upon excitation of the PS at a specific wavelength, the PDT process begins which leads to ROS generation. ROS produced during PDT could induce two different pathways. If PDT produces control and low ROS, it can lead to cell proliferation and differentiation. However, excess production of ROS by PDT causes cellular photo damage which is the main mechanism used in cancer treatment. This review summarizes the functions of ROS in living systems and describes role of PDT in production of controllable ROS and finally a special focus on current ROS-generating therapeutic protocols for regeneration and wound healing.

Abstract
Among the factors that delay the wound healing process in chronic wounds, bacterial infections are a common cause of acute wounds becoming chronic. Various therapeutic agents, such as antibiotics, metallic nanoparticles, and essential oils have been employed to treat infected wounds and also prevent the wounds from bacterial invasion. Essential oils are promising therapeutic agents with excellent wound healing, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities, and good soothing effects. Some essential oils become chemically unstable when exposed to light, heat, oxygen, and moisture. The stability and biological activity of essential oil can be preserved via loading into hydrogels. The polymer-based hydrogels loaded with bioactive agents are regarded as ideal wound dressings with unique features, such as controlled and sustained drug release mechanisms, good antibacterial activity, non-toxicity, excellent cytocompatibility, good porosity, moderate water vapour transmission rate, etc. This review addresses the pre-clinical outcomes of hydrogels loaded with essential oils in the treatment of infected wounds.

Abstract
Infection is a huge obstacle to wound healing. Thus, to enhance the healing of infected wounds, wound dressings that permit the dual delivery of antimicrobials and antioxidants are highly desirable. In this study, a series of gelatin-based nanofiber membranes with different curcumin contents were fabricated via solution electrospinning. The obtained membranes were characterized in terms of their morphologies, in addition to their physical, mechanical, and in vitro properties. The results showed that the membranes maintained an integrated morphology, excellent water absorption capability, satisfactory mechanical properties, and a high dissolution rate of curcumin. The addition of curcumin and borneol conferred the membranes the ability to inhibit Staphylococcus aureus and eliminate free radicals. Furthermore, cytocompatibility testing using the L929 cell line confirmed the excellent biocompatibility of the membranes. These gelatin-based nanofiber membranes loaded with curcumin and borneol can therefore be considered as promising materials for dressing wounds. Moreover, the use of biodegradable polymers and environmentally sustainable production techniques in this system render it suitable for the commercial manufacture of composite membranes.

Abstract
Electrospun nanofiber materials have been considered as advanced dressing candidates in the perspective of wound healing and skin regeneration, originated from their high porosity and permeability to air and moisture, effective barrier performance of external pathogens, and fantastic extracellular matrix (ECM) fibril mimicking property. Gelatin is one of the most important natural biomaterials for the design and construction of electrospun nanofiber-based dressings, due to its excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability, and great exudate-absorbing capacity. Various crosslinking approaches including physical, chemical, and biological methods have been introduced to improve the mechanical stability of electrospun gelatin-based nanofiber mats. Some innovative electrospinning strategies, including blend electrospinning, emulsion electrospinning, and coaxial electrospinning, have been explored to improve the mechanical, physicochemical, and biological properties of gelatin-based nanofiber mats. Moreover, numerous bioactive components and therapeutic agents have been utilized to impart the electrospun gelatin-based nanofiber dressing materials with multiple functions, such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammation, antioxidation, hemostatic, and vascularization, as well as other healing-promoting capacities. Noticeably, electrospun gelatin-based nanofiber mats integrated with specific functions have been fabricated to treat some hard-healing wound types containing burn and diabetic wounds. This work provides a detailed review of electrospun gelatin-based nanofiber dressing materials without or with therapeutic agents for wound healing and skin regeneration applications.

Abstract
Bone regeneration is a crucial part in the treatment of periodontal tissue regeneration, in which new attempts come out along with the development of nanomaterials. Herein, the effect of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) on the cell behavior and function of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) was investigated. Results of CCK-8 and cell cycle tests demonstrated that CeO2 NPs not only had good biocompatibility, but also promoted cell proliferation. Furthermore, the levels of alkaline phosphatase activity, mineralized nodule formation and expressions of osteogenic genes and proteins demonstrated CeO2 NPs could promote osteogenesis differentiation of hPDLSCs. Then we chose electrospinning to fabricate fibrous membranes containing CeO2 NPs. We showed that the composite membranes improved mechanical properties as well as realized release of CeO2 NPs. We then applied the composite membranes to in vivo study in rat cranial defect models. Micro-CT and histopathological evaluations revealed that nanofibrous membranes with CeO2 NPs further accelerated new bone formation. Those exciting results demonstrated that CeO2 NPs and porous membrane contributed to osteogenic ability, and CeO2 NPs contained electrospun membrane may be a promising candidate material for periodontal bone regeneration.

Abstract
Microbial infections has become a great threat to human health and one of the main risks arises from direct contact with the surfaces contaminated by pathogenic microbes. Developing long-lasting antimicrobial materials becomes an urgent need. Herein, a kind of hexagonal column interpenetrated spheres (HCISs) are fabricated by non-covalent assembly of plant gallic acid with quaternary ammonium surfactants. Different from one-time burst release of conventional antimicrobial agents, the HCIS acts like a "antimicrobial molecular bank" and releases the antimicrobial ingredients in a multistage way, leading to long-lasting antimicrobial performance. Taking advantage of strong hydrophobicity and adhesion, HCISs are applicable to various substrates and endowed with anti-water washing property, thus showing high in vitro antimicrobial efficiency ( > 99 %) even after being used for 10 cycles. Meanwhile, HCISs exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity against bacteria and fungi, and have good biocompatibility with mammalian cells. Such a low-cost and portable long-lasting antimicrobial agent meets the growing anti-infection demand in public spaces.

Cationic peptide-based salt-responsive antibacterial hydrogel dressings for wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2021; 190:754-762.

Abstract
Development of biological dressings has received widespread attentions due to their good breathability, biocompatibility, wettability, and the ability to absorb wound exudate without sticking to the wound. However, current proposed antibacterial hydrogels are limited antibacterial ability, short service life and insufficient biocompatibility, which are still challenging to address intricate practical applications. Here we develop a cationic peptide-based, salt-responsive hydrogel dressing with triple functions of antifouling, bactericidal, and bacterial release by combining ε-poly-l-lysine, poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether, and poly(DVBAPS-co-GMA) via a one-pot method. These designed hydrogels enabled to further quaternize to enhance antibacterial property due to the presence of amine residues. The resultant hydrogels present good antibacterial activity (>90%), biocompatibility, cell proliferation efficacy (~400%) and adhesiveness. Through in vivo and in vitro antibacterial capability tests, it is also found that hydrogels have good antifouling and sterilization capabilities, and the sterilization rate could reach up to ~96%. In addition, ~94% of the attached bacterial can be released after saline/water switching for several cycles. Taken together, the designed multiple antibacterial dressing prolongs the lifespan relying on reversible salt-responsive release and meet special requirements for wound healing. This work not only provides a platform to highlight its promising potentials in wound management but also gives a custom strategy to biomedical applications.

Abstract
The idea of creating replacement for damaged or diseased tissue, which will mimic the physiological conditions and simultaneously promote regeneration by patients’ own cells, has been a major challenge in the biomedicine for more than a decade. Therefore, nanofibers are a promising solution to address these challenges. Nanofiber technology is an exciting area attracting the attention of many researchers as a potential solution to these current challenges in the biomedical field such as burn and wound care, organ repair, and treatment for osteoporosis and various diseases. Nanofibers mimic the porous topography of natural extracellular matrix (ECM), hence they are advantageous for tissue regeneration . In biomedical engineering, electrospinning exhibits advantages as a tissue engineering scaffolds producer, which can make appropriate resemblance in physical structure with ECM. This is because of the nanometer scale of ECM fibrils in diameter, which can be mimicked by electrospinning procedure as well as its porous structure. In this review, the applications of nanofibers in various biomedical areas such as tissue engineering, wound dressing and facemask, are summarized. It provides opportunities to develop new materials and techniques that improve the ability for developing quick, sensitive and reliable analytical techniques.

Photocatalytic Nanofiber Membranes for the Degradation of Micropollutants and Their Antimicrobial Activity: Recent Advances and Future Prospects. MEMBRANES 2021; 11:membranes11090678.

Abstract
This review paper systematically evaluates current progress on the development and performance of photocatalytic nanofiber membranes often used in the removal of micropollutants from water systems. It is demonstrated that nanofiber membranes serve as excellent support materials for photocatalytic nanoparticles, leading to nanofiber membranes with enhanced optical properties, as well as improved recovery, recyclability, and reusability. The tremendous performance of photocatalytic membranes is attributed to the photogenerated reactive oxygen species such as hydroxyl radicals, singlet oxygen, and superoxide anion radicals introduced by catalytic nanoparticles such as TiO2 and ZnO upon light irradiation. Hydroxyl radicals are the most reactive species responsible for most of the photodegradation processes of these unwanted pollutants. The review also demonstrates that self-cleaning and antimicrobial nanofiber membranes are useful in the removal of microbial species in water. These unique materials are also applicable in other fields such as wound dressing since the membrane allows for oxygen flow in wounds to heal while antimicrobial agents protect wounds against infections. It is demonstrated that antimicrobial activities against bacteria and photocatalytic degradation of micropollutants significantly reduce membrane fouling. Therefore, the review demonstrates that electrospun photocatalytic nanofiber membranes with antimicrobial activity form efficient cost-effective multifunctional composite materials for the removal of unwanted species in water and for use in various other applications such as filtration, adsorption and electrocatalysis.

Abstract
Wound care is a major biomedical field that is challenging due to the delayed wound healing process. Some factors are responsible for delayed wound healing such as malnutrition, poor oxygen flow, smoking, diseases (such as diabetes and cancer), microbial infections, etc. The currently used wound dressings suffer from various limitations, including poor antimicrobial activity, etc. Wound dressings that are formulated from biopolymers (e.g., cellulose, chitin, gelatin, chitosan, etc.) demonstrate interesting properties, such as good biocompatibility, non-toxicity, biodegradability, and attractive antimicrobial activity. Although biopolymer-based wound dressings display the aforementioned excellent features, they possess poor mechanical properties. Gelatin, a biopolymer has excellent biocompatibility, hemostatic property, reduced cytotoxicity, low antigenicity, and promotes cellular attachment and growth. However, it suffers from poor mechanical properties and antimicrobial activity. It is crosslinked with other polymers to enhance its mechanical properties. Furthermore, the incorporation of antimicrobial agents into gelatin-based wound dressings enhance their antimicrobial activity in vitro and in vivo. This review is focused on the development of hybrid wound dressings from a combination of gelatin and other polymers with good biological, mechanical, and physicochemical features which are appropriate for ideal wound dressings. Gelatin-based wound dressings are promising scaffolds for the treatment of infected, exuding, and bleeding wounds. This review article reports gelatin-based wound dressings which were developed between 2016 and 2021.

To improve the antibacterial effect of a poly(ε-caprolactone)/gelatin (PCL/Gt) composite, Cu nanoparticles (Cu NPs) were synthesized as an antibacterial agent, and a Cu NPs/PCL/Gt fiber membrane was thus fabricated via green electrospinning. The results showed that the Cu NPs/PCL/Gt fiber membrane with a uniform and complete structure exhibited high porosity and water absorption, favorable hydrophilicity, good mechanical and thermal properties, and satisfactory antibacterial activity. The easy preparation and good comprehensive property implied the great potential application of the Cu NPs/PCL/Gt fiber membrane in various fields (e.g., wound dressing and antibacterial clothing). In addition, the synthesis in this work would offer a promising approach for the preparation of a metal nanoparticle/polymer fiber material with good antibacterial property.

Abstract
Advancements in technology and material development in recent years has led to significant breakthroughs in the remit of fiber engineering. Conventional methods such as wet spinning, melt spinning, phase separation and template synthesis have been reported to develop fibrous structures for an array of applications. However, these methods have limitations with respect to processing conditions (e.g. high processing temperatures, shear stresses) and production (e.g. non-continuous fibers). The materials that can be processed using these methods are also limited, deterring their use in practical applications. Producing fibrous structures on a nanometer scale, in sync with the advancements in nanotechnology is another challenge met by these conventional methods. In this review we aim to present a brief overview of conventional methods of fiber fabrication and focus on the emerging fiber engineering techniques namely electrospinning, centrifugal spinning and pressurised gyration. This review will discuss the fundamental principles and factors governing each fabrication method and converge on the applications of the resulting spun fibers; specifically, in the drug delivery remit and in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The management of chronic wounds is challenging. The factors that impede wound healing include malnutrition, diseases (such as diabetes, cancer), and bacterial infection. Most of the presently utilized wound dressing materials suffer from severe limitations, including poor antibacterial and mechanical properties. Wound dressings formulated from the combination of biopolymers and synthetic polymers (i.e., poly (vinyl alcohol) or poly (ε-caprolactone) display interesting properties, including good biocompatibility, improved biodegradation, good mechanical properties and antimicrobial effects, promote tissue regeneration, etc. Formulation of these wound dressings via electrospinning technique is cost-effective, useful for uniform and continuous nanofibers with controllable pore structure, high porosity, excellent swelling capacity, good gaseous exchange, excellent cellular adhesion, and show a good capability to provide moisture and warmth environment for the accelerated wound healing process. Based on the above-mentioned outstanding properties of nanofibers and the unique properties of hybrid wound dressings prepared from poly (vinyl alcohol) and poly (ε-caprolactone), this review reports the in vitro and in vivo outcomes of the reported hybrid nanofibers.

Abstract
Treatment of skin injuries is still facing major challenges, such as chronicity and infections, particularly those caused by multi-drug resistance pathogens. An effective treatment of such wounds should accelerate the wound healing process while preventing bacterial contamination. Here, a novel core-shell nanofiber mat was fabricated comprising gelatin/polyvinyl alcohol (as a core) and aloe vera/arabinose/polyvinylpyrrolidone (as a shell) for accelerating the healing process of bacteria-infected wounds. Trachyspermum Ammi (Ajwain) essential oil (EO), as a potent and natural antimicrobial agent against microorganisms, was incorporated into the core of nanofiber mats using coaxial electrospinning. The microscopy images demonstrated the successful fabrication of the core-shell structure with a uniform fiber size of 564 ± 106.35 nm. Moreover, Ajwain EO-loaded nanofiber mat (core-shell/EO) provided excellent antimicrobial activity and antioxidant ability. The in vitro and ex vivo release of Ajwain EO from the fabricated nanofiber mat corroborated a prolonged release profile. Furthermore, in vivo antibacterial activity, wound closure, and histomorphological examinations showed the high efficacy of the core-shell/EO mat in the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus-infected full-thickness rat wounds compared to standard control treatment with a gauze. Overall, these results represent the core-shell/EO mat's potential as a newly developed wound dressing for bacteria-infected full-thickness skin injuries.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcer infections are the main causes of hospitalization in diabetics. The present study aimed to develop vancomycin and imipenem/cilastatin loaded core-shell nanofibers to facilitate the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. Therefore, novel core-shell nanofibers composed of polyethylene oxide, chitosan, and vancomycin in shell and polyvinylpyrrolidone, gelatin, and imipenem/cilastatin in core compartments were prepared using the electrospinning technique. The nanofibers were characterized using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, tensile test, and drug release. The antibacterial activity of drug-loaded nanofibers in different drugs concentrations was evaluated against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Escherichia coli, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa by disk diffusion method. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity of fibers was investigated by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide assay. The obtained results showed that the prepared nanofibers were smooth having a core-shell structure with almost no cytotoxicity. The nanofibrous mats exhibited significant antibacterial activity against S. aureus and MRSA with the inhibition zones of 2.9 and 2.5 cm and gram-negative bacteria species of E. coli and P. aeruginosa with the inhibition zones of 1.9 and 2.8 cm, respectively. With respect to the significant antibacterial activities of these nanofibrous mats, they might be used as suitable drug delivery devices not only for diabetic foot ulcer infections but also for other chronic wounds.

Abstract
Electrospun micro/nanofibrous membranes (EFMs) have been widely investigated as local drug delivery systems. Multiple drugs can be simultaneously incorporated into one EFM to create synergistic effects, reduce side effects, and play their respective roles in the complex physiological processes of tissue regeneration and postoperative adhesion prevention. Due to the versatile electrospinning techniques, sustained and programmed release behaviors of multiple drugs could be achieved by modulating the structure of the EFMs and the location of the drugs. In this review, various multidrug incorporation approaches based on electrospinning are overviewed. In particular, the advantages and limitations of each drug incorporation technique, the methods to control drug release and the effect of one drug release on another are discussed. Then the applications of multidrug-loaded EFMs in regenerative medicine, including wound healing, bone regeneration, vascular tissue engineering, nerve regeneration, periodontal regeneration and adhesion prevention are comprehensively reviewed. Finally, the future perspectives and challenges in the research of multidrug-loaded EFMs are discussed.

Abstract
Wounds are prone to bacterial infections, which cause a delayed healing process. Regarding the emergence of bacterial resistance to common antibiotics, using natural antimicrobial agents can be beneficial. Chitosan is a biological polymer, which has shown partial antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. In this study, core-shell nanofibrous scaffolds composed of chitosan (CS)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the core and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/ maltodextrin (MD) as the shell were developed. Satureja mutica (S. mutica) or Oliveria decumbens (O. decumbens) essential oil (EO) was encapsulated into the core of the produced scaffolds. The broth microdilution analysis showed significant antimicrobial activity of the EOs. The SEM analysis indicated that the unloaded and loaded core-shell scaffolds with S. mutica or O. decumbens EO had a uniform, beadless structure with fiber mean diameters of 210 ± 50, 250 ± 45, and 225 ± 46 nm, respectively. The CS/PVA-PVP/MD and CS/PVA/EO-PVP/MD scaffolds indicated suitable mechanical properties. The addition of the studied EOs enhanced the antioxidant activity of the scaffolds. The antimicrobial test of produced scaffolds showed that loading of 10% S. mutica or O. decumbens EO could broaden the microbicidal activity of the CS/PVA-PVP/MD scaffolds. These results revealed that the CS/PVA/EO-PVP/MD nanofibrous scaffolds are promising candidates for wound dressing.

Abstract
Wound healing is an unmet therapeutic challenge among medical society since wound assessment and management is a complex procedure including several factors playing major role in healing process. Wounds can mainly be categorized as acute or chronic. It is well referred that the acute wound displays normal wound physiology while healing, in most cases, is seemed to progress through the normal phases of wound healing. On the other hand, a chronic wound is physiologically impaired. The main problem in wound management is that the majority of wounds are colonized with microbes, whereas this does not mean that all wounds will be infected. In this review, we address the problems that clinicians face to manage while treat acute and chronic wounds. Moreover, we demonstrate the pathophysiology, etiology, prognosis and microbiology of wounds. We further introduce the state of art in pharmaceutical technology field as part of wound management aiming to assist health professionals to overcome the current implications on wound assessment. In addition, authors review researches which included the use of gels and dermal films as wound healing agents. It can be said that natural and synthetic drugs or carriers provide promising solutions in order to meet the wound management standards. However, are the current strategies as desirable as medical society wish?

Abstract
Some of the currently used wound dressings have interesting features such as excellent porosity, good water-absorbing capacity, moderate water vapor transmission rate, high drug loading efficiency, and good capability to provide a moist environment, but they are limited in terms of antimicrobial properties. Their inability to protect the wound from microbial invasion results in wound exposure to microbial infections, resulting in a delayed wound healing process. Furthermore, some wound dressings are loaded with synthetic antibiotics that can cause adverse side effects on the patients. Natural-based compounds exhibit unique features such as good biocompatibility, reduced toxicity, etc. Curcumin, one such natural-based compound, has demonstrated several biological activities such as anticancer, antibacterial and antioxidant properties. Its good antibacterial and antioxidant activity make it beneficial for the treatment of wounds. Several researchers have developed different types of polymer-based wound dressings which were loaded with curcumin. These wound dressings displayed excellent features such as good biocompatibility, induction of skin regeneration, accelerated wound healing processes and excellent antioxidant and antibacterial activity. This review will be focused on the in vitro and in vivo therapeutic outcomes of wound dressings loaded with curcumin.

Abstract
In this study, an ideal nano-scale material, named epidermal stimulating (ES) factors-gelatin/polycaprolactone (GT/PCL) nanofiber, was fabricated using a coaxial electrospinning technique. The ES-GT/PCL nanofibers possessed a highly porous structure with qualified mechanical properties for transplantation. With ES factors stored in the core and GT/PCL in the shell, the ES factors could be protected and released in a sustained manner. After seeding L929 cell line on ES-GT/PCL nanofibers for 7 days in vitro, the proliferation of cells was nearly 1.5 folds compared to the control group. The in vivo study showed that ES-GT/PCL nanofibers can accelerate skin wound healing rate during the healing course, especially on the early stage. The epidermal and dermal thickness, as well as skin appendages and fat tissue, were the most similar to the native skin. These findings provided valuable insights into the addition of multiple bioactive factors to nanometre biomaterials, and optimising the advantages of the compositions as a promising potential dermal substitute construct.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting, where cells, hydrogels, and structural polymers can be printed layer by layer into complex designs, holds great promise for advances in medicine and the biomedical sciences. In principle, this technique enables the creation of highly patient-specific disease models and biomedical implants. However, an ability to tailor surface biocompatibility and interfacial bonding between printed components, such as polymers and hydrogels, is currently lacking. Here we demonstrate that an atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ) can locally activate polymeric surfaces for the reagent-free covalent attachment of proteins and hydrogel in a single-step process at desired locations. Polyethylene and poly-ε-caprolactone were used as example polymers. Covalent attachment of the proteins and hydrogel was demonstrated by resistance to removal by rigorous sodium dodecyl sulfate washing. The immobilized protein and hydrogel layers were analyzed using Fourier transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Importantly, the APPJ surface activation also rendered the polymer surfaces mildly hydrophilic as required for optimum biocompatibility. Water contact angles were observed to be stable within a range where the conformation of biomolecules is preserved. Single and double electrode designs of APPJs were compared in their characteristics relevant to localized surface functionalization, plume length, and shape. As a proof of efficacy in a biological context, APPJ-treated polyethylene functionalized with fibronectin was used to demonstrate improvements in cell adhesion and proliferation. These results have important implications for the development of a new generation of 3D bioprinters capable of spatially patterned and tailored surface functionalization performed during the 3D printing process in situ.
