Life Sci 2024; 354:122963. [PMID: 39127316 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2024.122963] [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: 06/19/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/12/2024]
Abstract
AIMS This study evaluates the therapeutic potential of emodin in enhancing the anti-inflammatory phenotype of macrophages, proposing a novel treatment strategy for myocardial infarction (MI). Our objective is to overcome the challenge of myocardial repair post-MI by developing an innovative in-situ myocardial drug delivery system that reduces associated hepatotoxicity. MATERIALS AND METHODS Through network pharmacology, it was identified that emodin primarily treats MI through anti-inflammatory actions. We investigated the influence of emodin on macrophage polarization using cellular assays and examined its therapeutic impacts and hepatotoxicity in animal models across various doses. A novel in-situ drug delivery system was devised using Pluronic F-127, a thermosensitive hydrogel, to enhance solubility and enable localized delivery to the myocardium. KEY FINDINGS In vitro studies confirmed that emodin effectively induces macrophage polarization toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype. In vivo analyses demonstrated a dose-dependent therapeutic effect on the myocardium, although higher doses led to significant hepatotoxicity. The innovative drug delivery system increased emodin's solubility, facilitated precise myocardial targeting, and markedly reduced systemic exposure and liver toxicity. SIGNIFICANCE This study introduces an advanced approach to treating MI by leveraging the natural anti-inflammatory properties of emodin combined with drug delivery technology. This strategy not only enhances the clinical feasibility of emodin for MI treatment but also represents a significant advancement in therapeutic methods. It focuses on increasing the drug concentration in the myocardium while minimizing the systemic side effects of the drug.

Abstract
With the advancement of wearable and implantable medical devices, hydrogel flexible bioelectronic devices have attracted significant interest due to exhibiting tissue-like mechanical compliance, biocompatibility, and low electrical resistance. In this study, the development and comprehensive performance evaluation of poly(acrylic acid)/ N,N'-bis(acryloyl) cystamine/ 1-butyl-3-ethenylimidazol-1-ium:bromide (PAA/NB/IL) hydrogels designed for flexible sensor applications are introduced. Engineered through a combination of physical and chemical cross-linking strategies, these hydrogels exhibit strong mechanical properties, high biocompatibility, and effective sensing capabilities. At 95 % strain, the compressive modulus of PAA/NB/IL 100 reach up to 3.66 MPa, with the loading-unloading process showing no significant hysteresis loop, indicating strong mechanical stability and elasticity. An increase in the IL content was observed to enlarge the porosity of the hydrogels, thereby influencing their swelling behavior and sensing functionality. Biocompatibility assessments revealed that the hemolysis rate was below 5 %, ensuring their suitability for biomedical applications. Upon implantation in rats, a minimal acute inflammatory response was observed, comparable to that of the biocompatibility control poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA). These results suggest that PAA/NB/IL hydrogels hold promise as biomaterials for biosensors, offering a balance of mechanical integrity, physiological compatibility, and sensing sensitivity, thereby facilitating advanced healthcare monitoring solutions.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogel-based sensors are increasingly favored for flexible electronics due to their skin-like characteristics. However, conventional hydrogels suffer from significant swelling in humid environments and poor mechanical properties which largely restrict their applications in wearable electronic devices, especially for underwater sensing. Herein, drawing inspiration from the extracellular matrix (ECM) structure, a TPU-PVAc@AgNPs/MXene nanofibrous hydrogel composite (TPAMH) with excellent mechanical robustness and anti-swelling properties is developed. The TPAMH nanofibrous hydrogel composite is created by integrating the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and MXene nanosheets into an interwoven network comprising of stiff TPU nanofibers as the fibril scaffold and formic acid-crosslinked PVA hydrogel fibers as the elastic matrix (PVAc). Benefiting from the unique ECM structure, the obtained nanofibrous hydrogel composites exhibit exceptional tensile strength (4.47 MPa), remarkable elongation at break (621%), excellent anti-swelling properties, and high detection sensitivity (maximum gauge factor = 105.02), which are sufficient to monitor body motions in both air and water environments effectively. They can detect large strain movements of fingers, elbows, wrists, and knees, as well as small strain physiological signals such as frown, smile, and pulse beats, with high accuracy. Particularly noteworthy is their ability to accurately identify underwater multidirectional motions and facilitate underwater smart alarms using Morse code.

Mater Today Bio 2024; 26:101098. [PMID: 38840795 PMCID: PMC11152757 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2024.101098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Developing patches that effectively merge intrinsic deformation characteristics of cardiac with superior tunable mechanical properties remains a crucial biomedical pursuit. Currently used traditional block-shaped or mesh patches, typically incorporating a positive Poisson's ratio, often fall short of matching the deformation characteristics of cardiac tissue satisfactorily, thus often diminishing their repairing capability. By introducing auxeticity into the cardiac patches, this study is trying to present a beneficial approach to address these shortcomings of the traditional patches. The patches, featuring the auxetic effect, offer unparalleled conformity to the cardiac complex mechanical challenges. Initially, scaffolds demonstrating the auxetic effect were designed by merging chiral rotation and concave angle units, followed by integrating scaffolds with a composite hydrogel through thermally triggering, ensuring excellent biocompatibility closely mirroring heart tissue. Tensile tests revealed that auxetic patches possessed superior elasticity and strain capacity exceeding cardiac tissue's physiological activity. Notably, Model III showed an equivalent modulus ratio and Poisson's ratio closely toward cardiac tissue, underscoring its outstanding mechanical potential as cardiac patches. Cyclic tensile loading tests demonstrated that Model III withstood continuous heartbeats, showcasing outstanding cyclic loading and recovery capabilities. Numerical simulations further elucidated the deformation and failure mechanisms of these patches, leading to an exploration of influence on mechanical properties with alternative design parameters, which enabled the customization of mechanical strength and Poisson's ratio. Therefore, this research presents substantial potential for designing cardiac auxetic patches that can emulate the deformation properties of cardiac tissue and possess adjustable mechanical parameters.

Abstract
Metal coordination hydrogels (MC-HGs) that introduce dynamically coordinate bonds together with metal ionic conduction have attracted considerable attention in flexible electronics. However, the traditional soaking method alleged to have technical scalability faces the challenge of forming MC-HGs with a "core-shell" structure, which undoubtedly reduces the whole mechanical properties and ionic stimulation responsiveness required for flexible electronics materials. Herein, a novel strategy referred to as "masking" has been proposed based on the theory of the valence bond and coordination chemistry. By regulating the masking agents and their concentrations as well as pairing mode with the metal ions, the whole mechanical properties of the resulting composites (MC-HGsMasking) show nearly double the values of their traditional soaking samples (MC-HGsSoaking). For example, the fracture stress and toughness of Fe-HGsMasking(SA, 5.0 g/L) are 1.55 MPa and 2.14 MJ/m3, almost twice those of Fe-HGsSoaking (0.83 MPa and 0.93 MJ/m3, respectively). Microstructure characterization combined with finite element analysis, molecular dynamics, and first-principles simulations demonstrates that the masking strategy first facilitating interfacial permeation of metal complexes and then effective coordination with functional ligands (carboxylates) of the hydrogels is the mechanism to strengthen the mechanical properties of composites MC-HGsMasking, which has the potential to break through the limitations of current MC-HGs in flexible electronic sensor applications.

Abstract
The present study synthesized a deep eutectic solvent (DES) using acrylic acid (AA), acrylamide (AM), and choline chloride (ChCl), and added phytic acid (PA) as a filler. Subsequently, the PA/P(AA-co-AM) composite hydrogel was prepared under ultraviolet irradiation and used a photoinitiator. Characterization of the hydrogels was conducted using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The study aimed to investigate the impact of PA on the mechanical properties, fatigue resistance, and electrical conductivity of the composite hydrogel. The findings demonstrated that as the mass fraction of PA increased, the compressive strength of the composite hydrogel gradually decreased, yet the fatigue resistance of the composite hydrogel increased. Specifically, after 10 cycles of compression, the resilience recovery rate of FP0 dropped from 86.9% to 70.4%, the maximum stress recovery rate of FP1 dropped from 97.9% to 89.4%, the maximum stress recovery rate of FP2 dropped from 94.4% to 86.6%, and the maximum stress recovery rate of FP3 dropped from 97.3% to 93%. Overall, this study offers a straightforward and efficient method for producing composite hydrogels with both fatigue resistance and electrical conductivity.

Abstract
The proposed electro-responsive hydrogel has great benefit for transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) applications. To improve the physical or chemical properties of hydrogels, a number of researchers have previously studied the mixing efficiencies of the blended hydrogels. However, few studies have focused on improving the electrical conductivity and drug delivery of the hydrogels. We developed a conductive blended hydrogel by mixing alginate with gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and silver nanowire (AgNW). We demonstrated that and the tensile strength of blended hydrogels were increased by a factor of 1.8 by blending GelMA and the electrical conductivity was enhanced by a factor of 18 by the addition of AgNW. Furthermore, the GelMA-alginate-AgNW (Gel-Alg-AgNW) blended hydrogel patch enabled on-off controllable drug release, indicating 57% doxorubicin release in response to electrical stimulation (ES) application. Therefore, this electro-responsive blended hydrogel patch could be useful for smart drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Hydrogels are essential biomaterials due to their favorable biocompatibility, mechanical properties similar to human soft tissue extracellular matrix, and tissue repair properties. In skin wound repair, hydrogels with antibacterial functions are especially suitable for dressing applications, so novel antibacterial hydrogel wound dressings have attracted widespread attention, including the design of components, optimization of preparation methods, strategies to reduce bacterial resistance, etc. In this review, we discuss the fabrication of antibacterial hydrogel wound dressings and the challenges associated with the crosslinking methods and chemistry of the materials. We have investigated the advantages and limitations (antibacterial effects and antibacterial mechanisms) of different antibacterial components in the hydrogels to achieve good antibacterial properties, and the response of hydrogels to stimuli such as light, sound, and electricity to reduce bacterial resistance. Conclusively, we provide a systematic summary of antibacterial hydrogel wound dressings findings (crosslinking methods, antibacterial components, antibacterial methods) and an outlook on long-lasting antibacterial effects, a broader antibacterial spectrum, diversified hydrogel forms, and the future development prospects of the field.

Abstract
Conductive hydrogels (CHs) combine the biomimetic properties of hydrogels with the physiological and electrochemical properties of conductive materials, and have attracted extensive attention in the past few years. In addition, CHs have high conductivity and electrochemical redox properties and can be used to detect electrical signals generated in biological systems and conduct electrical stimulation to regulate the activities and functions of cells including cell migration, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation. These properties give CHs unique advantages in tissue repair. However, the current review of CHs is mostly focused on their applications as biosensors. Therefore, this article reviewed the new progress of CHs in tissue repair including nerve tissue regeneration, muscle tissue regeneration, skin tissue regeneration and bone tissue regeneration in the past five years. We first introduced the design and synthesis of different types of CHs such as carbon-based CHs, conductive polymer-based CHs, metal-based CHs, ionic CHs, and composite CHs, and the types and mechanisms of tissue repair promoted by CHs including anti-bacterial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, stimulus response and intelligent delivery, real-time monitoring, and promoted cell proliferation and tissue repair related pathway activation, which provides a useful reference for further preparation of bio-safer and more efficient CHs used in tissue regeneration.
