Abstract
Multifunctional polysaccharide hydrogels with strong tissue adhesion, and antimicrobial and hemostatic properties are attractive wound healing materials. In this study, a chitosan-based hydrogel (HCS) was designed, and its properties were enhanced by incorporating oxidized eggshell membrane (OEM). Hydrogel characterization and testing results showed that the hydrogel had excellent antimicrobial properties, cytocompatibility, satisfactory adhesion properties on common substrates, and wet-state adhesion capacity. A rat liver injury model confirmed the significant hemostatic effect of the hydrogel. Finally, the ability of the hydrogel to promote wound healing was verified using rat skin wound repair experiments. Our findings indicate that HCS/OEM hydrogels with added eggshell membrane fibers have better self-healing properties, mechanical strength, adhesion, hemostatic properties, and biocompatibility than HCS hydrogels, in addition to having superior repair performance in wound repair experiments. Overall, the multifunctional polysaccharide hydrogels fabricated in this study are ideal for wound repair.

Abstract
Topical hemostatic agents are preferred for application to sensitive bleeding sites because of their immediate locoregional effects with less tissue damage. However, the majority of commercial hemostatic agents fail to provide stable tissue adhesion to bleeding wounds or act as physical barriers against contaminants. Hence, it has become necessary to investigate biologically favorable materials that can be applied and left within the body post-surgery. In this study, a dual-sided nanofibrous dressing for topical hemostasis is electrospun using a combination of two protein materials: bioengineered mussel adhesive protein (MAP) and silk fibroin (SF). The wound-adhesive inner layer is fabricated using dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA)-containing MAP, which promotes blood clotting by aggregation of hemocytes and activation of platelets. The anti-adhesive outer layer is composed of alcohol-treated hydrophobic SF, which has excellent spinnability and mechanical strength for fabrication. Because both proteins are fully biodegradable in vivo and biocompatible, the dressing would be suitable to be left in the body. Through in vivo evaluation using a rat liver damage model, significantly reduced clotting time and blood loss are confirmed, successfully demonstrating that the proposed dual-sided nanofibrous dressing has the right properties and characteristics as a topical hemostatic agent having dual functionality of hemostasis and physical protection.

Abstract
It is now generally accepted that macromolecules do not act in isolation but "live" in a crowded environment, that is, an environment populated by numerous different molecules. The field of molecular crowding has its origins in the far 80s but became accepted only by the end of the 90s. In the present issue, we discuss various aspects that are influenced by crowding and need to consider its effects. This Review is meant as an introduction to the theme and an analysis of the evolution of the crowding concept through time from colloidal and polymer physics to a more biological perspective. We introduce themes that will be more thoroughly treated in other Reviews of the present issue. In our intentions, each Review may stand by itself, but the complete collection has the aspiration to provide different but complementary perspectives to propose a more holistic view of molecular crowding.

Abstract
Achieving robust underwater adhesion remains challenging. Through generations of evolution, marine mussels have developed an adhesive system that allows them to anchor onto wet surfaces. Scientists have taken varied approaches to developing mussel-inspired adhesives. Mussel foot proteins are rich in lysine residues, which may play a role in the removal of salts from surfaces. Displacement of water and ions on substrates could then enable molecular contact with surfaces. The necessity of cations for underwater adhesion is still in debate. Here, we examined the performance of a methacrylate polymer containing quaternary ammonium and catechol groups. Varying amounts of charge in the polymers were studied. As opposed to protonated amines such as lysine, quaternary ammonium groups offer a nonreactive cation for isolating effects from only charge. Results shown for dry bonding demonstrated that cations tended to decrease bulk cohesion while increasing surface interactions. Stronger interactions at surfaces, along with weaker bulk bonding, indicate that cations decreased the cohesive forces. When under salt water, overall bulk adhesion also dropped with higher cation loadings. Surface attachment under salt water also dropped, indicating that the polymer cations could not displace surface waters or sodium ions. Salt did, however, appear to shield bulk cation-cation repulsions. These studies help to distinguish influences upon bulk cohesion from attachment at surfaces. The roles of cations in adhesion are complex, with both cohesive and surface bonding being relevant in different ways, sometimes even working in opposite directions.

Abstract
Peptide-based biomimetic underwater adhesives are emerging candidates for understanding the adhesion mechanism of natural proteins secreted by sessile organisms. However, there is a grand challenge in the functional recapitulation of the on-site interfacial spreading, adhesion and spontaneous solidification of native proteins in water using peptide adhesives without applied compressing pressure. Here, a solvent-exchange strategy was utilized to exert the underwater injection, on-site spreading, adhesion and sequential solidification of a series of peptide/polyoxometalate coacervates. The coacervates were first prepared in a mixed solution of water and organic solvents by rationally suppressing the non-covalent interactions. After switching to a water environment, the solvent exchange between bulk water and the organic solvent embedded in the matrix of the peptide/polyoxometalate coacervates recovered the hydrophobic effect by increasing the dielectric constant, resulting in a phase transition from soft coacervates to hard solid with enhanced bulk cohesion and thus compelling underwater adhesive performance. The key to this approach is the introduction of suitable organic solvents, which facilitate the control of the intermolecular interactions and the cross-linking density of the peptide/polyoxometalate adhesives in the course of solidification under the water line. The solvent-exchange method displays fascinating universality and compatibility with different peptide segments.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Implementation of tissue adhesives from natural sources endowed with good mechanical properties and underwater resistance still represents a challenging research goal. Inspired by the extraordinary wet adhesion properties of mussel byssus proteins resulting from interaction of catechol and amino residues, hydrogels from soy protein isolate (SPI) and selected polyphenols i.e. caffeic acid (CA), chlorogenic acid (CGA) and gallic acid (GA) under mild aerial oxidative conditions were prepared. EXPERIMENTS The hydrogels were subjected to chemical assays, ATR FT-IR and EPR spectroscopy, rheological and morphological SEM analysis. Mechanical tests were carried out on hydrogels prepared by inclusion of agarose. Biological tests included evaluation of the antibacterial and wound healing activity, and hemocompatibility. FINDINGS The decrease of free NH2 and SH groups of SPI, the EPR features, the good cohesive strength and excellent underwater resistance (15 days for SPI/GA) under conditions relevant to their use as surgical glues indicated an efficient interaction of the polyphenols with the protein in the hydrogels. The polyphenols greatly also improved the mechanical properties of the SPI/ agarose/polyphenols hydrogels. These latter proved biocompatible, hemocompatible, not harmful to skin, displayed durable adhesiveness and good water-vapour permeability. Excellent antibacterial properties and in some cases (SPI/CGA) a favourable wound healing activity on dermal fibroblasts was obtained.

Abstract
Coral reef survival is threatened globally. One way to restore this delicate ecosystem is to enhance coral growth by the controlled propagation of coral fragments. To be sustainable, this technique requires the use of biocompatible underwater adhesives. Hydrogels based on rationally designed ultrashort self-assembling peptides (USP) are of great interest for various biological and environmental applications, due to their biocompatibility and tunable mechanical properties. Implementing superior adhesion properties to the USP hydrogel compounds is crucial in both water and high ionic strength solutions and is relevant in medical and marine environmental applications such as coral regeneration. Some marine animals secrete large quantities of the aminoacids dopa and lysine to enhance their adhesion to wet surfaces. Therefore, the addition of catechol moieties to the USP sequence containing lysine (IIZK) should improve the adhesive properties of USP hydrogels. However, it is challenging to place the catechol moiety (Do) within the USP sequence at an optimal position without compromising the hydrogel self-assembly process and mechanical properties. Here, we demonstrate that, among three USP hydrogels, DoIIZK is the least adhesive and that the adhesiveness of the IIZDoK hydrogel is compromised by its poor mechanical properties. The best adhesion outcome was achieved using the IIZKDo hydrogel, the only one to show equally sound adhesive and mechanical properties. A mechanistic understanding of this outcome is presented here. This property was confirmed by the successful gluing of coral fragments by means of IIZKDo hydrogel that are still thriving after more than three years since the deployment. The validated biocompatibility of this underwater hydrogel glue suggests that it could be advantageously implemented for other applications, such as surgical interventions.

Abstract
Hemimyzon formosanus, a species of ray-finned fish, makes use of crescent-shaped abdominal suckers for adhering to irregular, rough, and slippery gravel in fast-flowing headwaters and minor tributaries. Bioinspired by the adhesion characteristics, two-dimensional non-close-packed colloidal crystals are self-assembled and serve as templates to pattern crescent-shaped shape memory polymer-based nanostructure arrays. By the manipulation of the configuration of nanosuckers through applying common solvent stimulations, the corresponding adhesion performances on glass, sandpaper, or even porcine kidney surfaces can be switched instantaneously and reversibly under ambient conditions. The biomimetic nanostructures indicate possible solutions to a variety of challenges, such as wound nursing, and so on.

Abstract
Reconstructing functional sequence motifs of proteins, using statistical copolymers greatly reduces the information content, but simplifies synthesis significantly. Key amino acid residues involved in the adhesion of mussel foot proteins are identified. The side-chain functionalities of Dopa, lysine, and arginine are abstracted and incorporated into acrylate monomers to allow controlled radical polymerization. The resulting Dopa-acrylate (Y*-acr), arginine-acrylate (R-acr), and lysine-acrylate (K-acr) monomers are polymerized in different monomer ratios and compositions by reversible addition fragmentation transfer polymerization with a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) macrochain transfer agent. This results in two sets of PEG-block-copolymers with statistical mixtures and different monomer ratios of catechol/primary amine and catechol/guanidine side-chain functionalities, both important pairs for mimicking π-cation interactions. The coating behavior of these PEG-block-copolymers is evaluated using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation energy monitoring (QCM-D), leading to non-covalent PEGylation of the substrates with clear compositional optima in the coating stability and antifouling properties. The coatings prevent non-reversible albumin or serum adsorption, as well as reduce cellular adhesion and fungal spore attachment.

Abstract
Nature-inspired smart materials offer numerous advantages over environmental friendliness and efficiency. Emulating the excellent adhesive properties of mussels foot proteins, where the lysine is in close proximity with the 3,4-dihydroxy-l-phenylalanine (DOPA), we report the synthesis of a novel photocurable peptide-based adhesive consisting exclusively of these two amino acids. Our adhesive is a highly concentrated aqueous solution of a monomer, a cross-linker, and a photoinitiator. Lap-shear adhesion measurements on plastic and glass surfaces and comparison with different types of commercial adhesives showed that the adhesive strength of our glue is comparable when applied in air and superior when used underwater. No toxicity of our adhesive was observed when the cytocompatibility on human dermal fibroblast cells was assessed. Preliminary experiments with various tissues and coral fragments showed that our adhesive could be applied to wound healing and coral reef restoration. Given the convenience of the facile synthesis, biocompatibility, ease of application underwater, and high adhesive strength, we expect that our adhesive may find application, but not limited, to the biomedical and environmental field.

Abstract
This study presents novel adhesive materials that use cation-π interactions to achieve highly specific cohesive interaction under water. The materials are short length peptides based on the FKF motif flanked by different side groups. Using the surface forces apparatus, we show that the composition of the side group allows to finely tune the strength of the cohesive and adhesive energies of the peptide and its specificity, meaning its capacity to bind strongly only to substrates bearing the same peptide. The interfacial properties of these adhesive peptides are shown to strongly depend on the composition of the deposition solvent, with DMSO being the solvent of choice to achieve high cohesive and adhesive energies. This result was correlated with the supramolecular structure of the peptide film and confirmed that needle-like structures can significantly enhance the adhesion of the material. Altogether, we showed that cation-π interaction can be used efficiently to create adhesive materials that incorporate features already known for underwater adhesives such as activation via solvent displacement, as well as new ones such as specificity and supramolecular structure enhanced adhesion.

Abstract
Synergistic interactions between 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (Dopa, Y*), cationic residues, and the aromatic rings have been recently highlighted as influential factors that enhance the underwater adhesion strength of mussel foot proteins and their derivatives. In this study, we report the first ever evidence of a cation-catechol-benzene ternary synergy between Y*, lysine (Lys, K), and phenylalanine (Phe, F) in adhesive peptides. We synthesized three hexapeptides containing a different combination of Y*, K, and F, i.e., (KY*)3, (KF)3, and (KY*F)2, respectively, exploring the relationship between the cohesive performance and molecular architecture of peptides. The peptide with the (KY*F)2 sequence displays the strongest underwater cohesion energy of 10.3 ± 0.3 mJ m-2 from direct nanoscale surface force measurements. Combined with molecular dynamics simulation, we demonstrated that there are more bonding interactions (including cation-π, π-π, and hydrogen bond interactions) in (KY*F)2 compared to the other two peptides. In addition, peptide (KY*F)2 still shows the strongest cohesive energies of 7.6 ± 0.7 and 3.7 ± 0.5 mJ m-2 in acidic and high-ionic strength environments, respectively, although the cohesive energy decreases compared to the value in pure water. Our results further explain the underwater cohesion mechanisms combining multiple interactions and offer insights on designing Dopa containing underwater adhesives.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal disorders are the second leading cause of disability worldwide, posing a huge global burden to the public sanitation system. Currently, tissue engineering-based approaches act as effective strategies, which are, however, challenging in limited application scenarios. Mussel-based biomimetic materials, exhibit numerous unique properties such as intense adhesion, biocompatibility, moisture resistance, and injectability, to name only a few, and have attracted extensive research interest. In particular, featuring state-of-the-art properties, mussel-inspired biomaterials have been widely explored in innumerable musculoskeletal disorder treatments including osteochondral defects, osteosarcoma, osteoarthritis, ligament rupture, and osteoporosis. Nevertheless, a comprehensive and timely discussion of their applications in musculoskeletal disorders is insufficient. In this review, we emphasize on (1) the main categories and characteristics of mussel foot proteins and their fundamental mechanisms for the spectacular adhesion in mussels; (2) the diverse synthetic methods and modification of various polymers; and (3) the emerging applications of mussel-biomimetic materials, the future perspectives, and challenges, especially in the area of musculoskeletal disorder. We envision that this review will provide a unique and insightful perspective to improve the development of a new generation of mussel biomimetic strategies.

Abstract
Protein-based underwater adhesives of marine organisms exhibit extraordinary binding strength in high salinity based on utilizing a variety of molecular interaction mechanisms. These include acid-base interactions, bidentate bindings or complex hydrogen bonding interactions, and electrochemical manipulation of interfacial bonding. In this Perspective, we briefly review recent progress in the field, and we discuss how interfacial electrochemistry can vary interfacial forces by concerted tuning of surface charging, hydration forces, and tuning of the interfacial ion concentration. We further discuss open questions, controversial findings, and new paths into understanding and utilizing redox-proteins and derived polymers for enhancing underwater adhesion in a complex salt environment.

Abstract
Some marine organisms can resist to aqueous tidal environments and adhere tightly on wet surface. This behavior has raised increasing attention for potential applications in medicine, biomaterials, and tissue engineering. In mussels, adhesive forces to the rock are the resultant of proteinic fibrous formations called byssus. We present the solution structure of Pvfp-5β, one of the three byssal plaque proteins secreted by the Asian green mussel Perna viridis, and the component responsible for initiating interactions with the substrate. We demonstrate that Pvfp-5β has a stably folded structure in agreement with the presence in the sequence of two EGF motifs. The structure is highly rigid except for a few residues affected by slow local motions in the µs-ms time scale, and differs from the model calculated by artificial intelligence methods for the relative orientation of the EGF modules, which is something where computational methods still underperform. We also show that Pvfp-5β is able to coacervate even with no DOPA modification, giving thus insights both for understanding the adhesion mechanism of adhesive mussel proteins, and developing of biomaterials.

Abstract
3,4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (Dopa) is a versatile molecule that enables marine mussels to achieve successful underwater adhesion. However, due to its complicated redox chemistry and vulnerability to oxidation, controlling surface adhesion and cohesion has been a challenging issue to overcome. Foot protein type 6 (fp-6), a thiol-rich interfacial mussel adhesive protein, has been reported as a proteinaceous antioxidant for mussels that helps Dopa maintain surface adhesion ability. In this study, we focused on the role of fp-6 in oxidized Dopa. The effect on the tautomer equilibrium of oxidized Dopa was investigated using recombinant fp-6 (rfp-6) and Dopa-incorporated foot protein type 3 fast variant (drfp-3F), which were produced in bacterial cells. The redox chemistry of Dopa in drfp-3F and the role of rfp-6 were observed using a UV-vis spectrophotometer and a surface forces apparatus (SFA). We discovered that rfp-6 shifts the tautomer equilibrium to ΔDopa as a preferred tautomer for oxidized Dopa in drfp-3F and makes drfp-3F better on underwater surface adhesion.

Abstract
In view of the lack of a specific drug-sustained release system that is responsive to chronic wounds of the type II diabetic foot, and the demands for frequent movement at the foot wound, pH/glucose dual-responsive metformin-released adhesion-enhanced self-healing easy-removable antibacterial antioxidant conductive hemostasis multifunctional phenylboronic acid and benzaldehyde bifunctional polyethylene glycol-co-poly(glycerol sebacic acid)/dihydrocaffeic acid and l-arginine cografted chitosan (PEGS-PBA-BA/CS-DA-LAG, denoted as PC) hydrogel dressings were constructed based on the double dynamic bond of the Schiff-base and phenylboronate ester. It was further demonstrated that the PC hydrogel promotes wound healing by reducing inflammation and enhancing angiogenesis in a rat type II diabetic foot model. In addition, the addition of metformin (Met) and graphene oxide (GO), as well as their synergy, were confirmed to better promote wound repair in vivo. In summary, adhesion-enhanced self-healing multifunctional PC/GO/Met hydrogels with stimuli-responsive metformin release ability and easy removability have shown a promoting effect on the healing of chronic athletic diabetic wounds and provide a local-specific drug dual-response release strategy for the treatment of type II diabetic feet.

Abstract
Translating fundamental studies of marine mussel adhesion into practical mussel-inspired wet adhesives remains an important technological challenge. To adhere, mussels secrete adhesive proteins rich in the catecholic amino acid 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (Dopa) and positively charged lysine. Consequently, numerous synthetic adhesives incorporating catecholic and cationic functionalities have been designed. However, despite widespread research, uncertainties remain about the optimal design of synthetic mussel-inspired adhesives. Here, we present a study of the adhesion of mussel-inspired pressure-sensitive adhesives. We explore the effects of catechol content, molecular architecture, and solvent quality on pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) adhesion and cohesion measured in a surface forces apparatus. Our findings demonstrate that the influence of catechol content depends on the choice of solvent and that adhesive performance is dictated by film composition rather than molecular architecture. Our results also highlight the importance of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions for adhesion and cohesion in aqueous environments. Together, our findings contribute to an improved understanding of the interplay between materials chemistry, environmental conditions, and adhesive performance to facilitate the design of bioinspired wet adhesives.

Abstract
Recently, there has been a wave of reports on the fabrication of peptide-based underwater adhesives with the aim of understanding the adhesion mechanism of marine sessile organisms or creating new biomaterials beyond nature. However, the poor shear adhesion performance of the current peptide adhesives has largely hindered their applications. Herein, we proposed to sequentially perform the interfacial adhesion and bulk cohesion of peptide-based underwater adhesives using two redox-complementary peptide/polyoxometalate (POM) coacervates. The oxidative coacervates were prepared by mixing oxidative H5PMo10V2O40 and cationic peptides in an aqueous solution. The reductive coacervates consisted of K5BW12O40 and cysteine-containing reductive peptides. Each of the individual coacervate has well-defined spreading capacity to achieve fast interfacial attachment and adhesion, but their cohesion is poor. However, after mixing the two redox-complementary coacervates at the target surface, effective adhesion and spontaneous curing were observed. We identified that the spontaneous curing resulted from the H5PMo10V2O40-regulated oxidization of cysteine-containing peptides. The formed intermolecular disulfide bonds improved the cross-linking density of the dual-peptide/POM coacervates, giving rise to the enhanced bulk cohesion and mechanical strength. More importantly, the resultant adhesives showcased excellent bioactivity to selectively suppress the growth of Gram-positive bacteria due to the presence of the polyoxometalates. This work raises further potential in the creation of biomimetic adhesives through the orchestrating of covalent and noncovalent interactions in a sequential fashion.

Abstract
Alleviating large stress is critical for high-energy batteries with large volume change upon cycling, yet this still presents a challenge. Here, a gradient hydrogen-bonding binder is reported for high-capacity silicon-based anodes that are highly desirable for the next-generation lithium-ion batteries. The well-defined gradient hydrogen bonds, with a successive bond energy of -2.88- -10.04 kcal mol-1 , can effectively release the large stress of silicon via the sequential bonding cleavage. This can avoid recurrently abrupt structure fracture of traditional binder due to lack of gradient energy dissipation. Certainly, this regulated binder endows stable high-areal-capacity silicon-based electrodes >4 mAh cm-2 . Beyond proof of concept, this work demonstrates a 2 Ah silicon-based pouch cell with an impressive capacity retention of 80.2% after 700 cycles (0.028% decay/cycle) based on this gradient hydrogen-bonding binder, making it more promising for practical application.

Abstract
Water and adhesives have a conflicting relationship as demonstrated by the failure of most man-made adhesives in underwater environments. However, living creatures routinely adhere to substrates underwater. For example, sandcastle worms create protective reefs underwater by secreting a cocktail of protein glue that binds mineral particles together, and mussels attach themselves to rocks near tide-swept sea shores using byssal threads formed from their extracellular secretions. Over the past few decades, the physicochemical examination of biological underwater adhesives has begun to decipher the mysteries behind underwater adhesion. These naturally occurring adhesives have inspired the creation of several synthetic materials that can stick underwater - a task that was once thought to be "impossible". This review provides a comprehensive overview of the progress in the science of underwater adhesion over the past few decades. In this review, we introduce the basic thermodynamics processes and kinetic parameters involved in adhesion. Second, we describe the challenges brought by water when adhering underwater. Third, we explore the adhesive mechanisms showcased by mussels and sandcastle worms to overcome the challenges brought by water. We then present a detailed review of synthetic underwater adhesives that have been reported to date. Finally, we discuss some potential applications of underwater adhesives and the current challenges in the field by using a tandem analysis of the reported chemical structures and their adhesive strength. This review is aimed to inspire and facilitate the design of novel synthetic underwater adhesives, that will, in turn expand our understanding of the physical and chemical parameters that influence underwater adhesion.

Abstract
Improving adhesives for wet surfaces is an ongoing challenge. While the adhesive proteins of marine mussels have inspired many synthetic wet adhesives, the mechanisms of mussel adhesion are still not fully understood. Using surface forces apparatus (SFA) measurements and replica-exchange and umbrella-sampling molecular dynamics simulations, we probed the relationships between the sequence, structure, and adhesion of mussel-inspired peptides. Experimental and computational results reveal that peptides derived from mussel foot protein 3 slow (mfp-3s) containing 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (Dopa), a post-translationally modified variant of tyrosine commonly found in mussel foot proteins, form adhesive monolayers on mica. In contrast, peptides with tyrosine adsorb as weakly adhesive clusters. We further considered simulations of mfp-3s derivatives on a range of hydrophobic and hydrophilic organic and inorganic surfaces (including silica, self-assembled monolayers, and a lipid bilayer) and demonstrated that the chemical character of the target surface and proximity of cationic and hydrophobic residues to Dopa affect peptide adsorption and adhesion. Collectively, our results suggest that conversion of tyrosine to Dopa in hydrophobic, sparsely charged peptides influences peptide self-association and ultimately dictates their adhesive performance.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Functional adhesives with excellent adhesive strength in wet as well as dry environments are actively studied for various applications. In particular, the adhesion mechanism of marine organisms has been imitated to achieve strong adhesion in wet environments. EXPERIMENTS Polyallylamine (PAA) was modified with catechol groups (CA), which mimic the mussel adhesion proteins, and gallol groups (GA) found in tunicates to compare the gelation, self-healing, and adhesive properties of the modified polymers according to pH change. The effect of the Schiff base formation and antioxidant capacity exerted by polyphenolic groups were investigated by comparing the self-healing behaviors of the two hydrogels. Furthermore, the wet adhesion and antibacterial properties of the PAA-CA and PAA-GA hydrogels were evaluated in terms of the synergistic effects of the amino groups and catechol or gallol groups. FINDINGS The self-crosslinkable PAA-CA and PAA-GA hydrogels showed high self-healing ability owing to these dynamic imine bonds. Furthermore, the PAA-based hydrogels showed higher adhesive strength in wet environments than in dry environments owing to the synergism between the catechol or gallol groups and amino groups. Overall, the PAA-GA hydrogels are superior to the PAA-CA ones, indicating that gallol-functionalized hydrogels have great potential as multifunctional adhesives.

Abstract
Recently, many studies have been reported on functional adhesives that are applicable in wet conditions as well as in air conditions. In this study, a novel polymer hydrogel that mimics the mussel foot proteins (Mfps) was designed as an adhesive that can adhere strongly to various substrates in wet conditions. Polyallylamine-hydrocaffeic acid (PAA-CA) conjugates were synthesized to introduce the catechol moiety into the PAA backbone. The PAA-CA hydrogels were simply prepared by controlling the pH to enable the formation of a dynamic imine bond via the Schiff base reaction without any additional cross-linking agents. Owing to its residual amino groups, the PAA-CA hydrogel showed improved adhesive strength in wet conditions, which was found to be ∼4.7 times higher than in dry conditions. In addition, dual-cross-linked PAA-CA hydrogels were prepared by the addition of laponite (LP). The synergistic effect of the dynamic imine bonds and ionic bonds of the PAA-CA/LP nanocomposite hydrogels led to improved mechanical and self-healing properties. PAA-based hydrogels have great potential for more diverse applications than those of the commercial adhesives.

Abstract
Nature provides concepts and materials with interesting functionalities to be implemented in innovative and sustainable materials. In this review, it is illustrated how the combination of biological macromolecules, i.e. polydopamine and polysaccharides (cellulose, chitin/chitosan, alginate), enables to create functional materials with controlled properties. The mussel-adhesive properties rely on the secretion of proteins having 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine amino acid with catechol groups. Fundamental understanding on the biological functionality and interaction mechanisms of dopamine in the mussel foot plaque is presented in parallel with the development of synthetic analogues through extraction or chemical polymer synthesis. Subsequently, modification of cellulose, chitin/chitosan or alginate and their nanoscale structures with polydopamine is discussed for various technical applications, including bio- and nanocomposites, films, filtration or medical membranes, adhesives, aerogels, or hydrogels. The presence of polydopamine stretches far beyond surface adhesive properties, as it can be used as an intermediate to provide additional performance of hydrophobicity, self-healing, antimicrobial, photocatalytic, sensoric, adsorption, biocompatibility, conductivity, coloring or mechanical properties. The dopamine-based 'green' chemistry can be extended towards generalized catechol chemistry for modification of polysaccharides with tannic acid, caffeic acid or laccase-mediated catechol functionalization. Therefore, the modification of polysaccharides with polydopamine or catechol analogues provides a general platform for sustainable material functionalization.

Abstract
Mussels can strongly adhere to hydrophilic minerals in sea habitats by secreting adhesive proteins. The adhesion ability of these proteins is often attributed to the presence of Dopa derived from posttranslational modification of Tyr, whereas the contribution of structural feature is overlooked. It remains largely unknown how adhesive proteins overcome the surface-bound water layer to establish underwater adhesion. Here, we use molecular dynamics simulations to probe the conformations of adhesive protein Pvfp-5β and its salt-tolerant underwater adhesion on superhydrophilic mica. Dopa and positively charged basic residues form pairs, in this intrinsically disordered protein, and these residue pairs can lead to firm surface binding. Our simulations further suggest that the unmodified Tyr shows similar functions on surface adhesion by forming pairing structure with a positively charged residue. We confirm the presence of these residue pairs and verify the strong binding ability of unmodified proteins using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and lap shear tests.
