Abstract
Over millions of years of evolution, nature has developed a myriad of unique features that have inspired the design of adhesives for wound healing. Bionic hydrogel adhesives, capable of adapting to the dynamic movements of tissues, possess superior biocompatibility and effectively promote the healing of both external and internal wounds. This paper provides a systematic review of the design and principles of these adhesives, focusing on the treatment of skin wounds, and explores the feasibility of incorporating nature-inspired properties into their design. The adhesion mechanisms of bionic adhesives are analyzed from both chemical and physical perspectives. Materials from natural and synthetic polymers commonly used as adhesives are detailed regarding their biocompatibility and degradability. The multifunctional design elements of hydrogel adhesives for skin trauma treatment, such as self-healing, drug release, responsive design, and optimization of mechanical and physical properties, are further explored. The aim is to overcome the limitations of conventional treatments and offer a safer, more effective solution for the application of bionic wound dressings.

Abstract
There is a growing and urgent need for developing novel biomaterials and therapeutic approaches for efficient wound healing. Microneedles (MNs), which can penetrate necrotic tissues and biofilm barriers at the wound and deliver active ingredients to the deeper layers in a minimally invasive and painless manner, have stimulated the interests of many researchers in the wound-healing filed. Among various materials, polymeric MNs have received widespread attention due to their abundant material sources, simple and inexpensive manufacturing methods, excellent biocompatibility and adjustable mechanical strength. Meanwhile, due to the unique properties of nanomaterials, the incorporation of nanomaterials can further extend the application range of polymeric MNs to facilitate on-demand drug release and activate specific therapeutic effects in combination with other therapies. In this review, we firstly introduce the current status and challenges of wound healing, and then outline the advantages and classification of MNs. Next, we focus on the manufacturing methods of polymeric MNs and the different raw materials used for their production. Furthermore, we give a summary of polymeric MNs incorporated with several common nanomaterials for chronic wounds healing. Finally, we discuss the several challenges and future prospects of transdermal drug delivery systems using nanomaterials-based polymeric MNs in wound treatment application.

Abstract
A new composite sponge assisted by magnetic field-mediated guidance was developed for effective hemostasis. It was based on polydopamine capillary-channel agarose (PDA-CAGA) sponge as matrix; meanwhile, the combination of deep eutectic solvent (DES, choline chloride:glycerol = 1:1, M/M)-dispersed Fe3O4 nanoparticles after fabrication by tannic acid (DES-Fe3O4@TA) was applied as hemostatic magnetic fluid. This sponge had oriented and aligned capillary channels realized by a 3D printed pattern, which endowed them with obvious shape memory and liquid absorption performance. Computational simulation was performed to describe the fluid status in channels; DES-Fe3O4@TA exhibited good magnetic properties, fluidity, and stability. In addition, the sponge driven to react rapidly with the bleeding site under the effect of a magnetic field presented a shorter hemostasis time (reduced by 85.02% in the tail and 81.07% in the liver of rats) and less blood loss (reduced by 97.08% in the tail and 91.50% in the liver) than those of medical gelatin sponge (GS). Meanwhile, the multifunctional material also exhibited better biocompatibility, procoagulant performance, and significant inhibition on S. aureus and E. coli than GS. As a whole, this work proposed a new strategy for rapid hemostasis by designing a magnetic field assisted composite bacteriostatic material, which also expanded the applications of green solvents in the clinical management field.

Abstract
Hydrogels have emerged as a new type of wound dressing materials that involved in different stages of the healing processes. However, most of the existing wound dressings mainly offer a protective and moisturizing layer to prevent cross-infection, while the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties are frequently induced by extra addition of other bioactive molecules. Here, a novel type of sulfated glyco-functionalized hydrogels for wound dressing was prepared through the hybrid supramolecular co-assembly of carbohydrate segments (FG, FGS and FG3S), fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-diphenylalanine (Fmoc-FF), and diphenylalanine-dopamine (FFD). Implanting sulfated carbohydrates can mimic the structure of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), promoting cell proliferation and migration, along with anti-inflammatory effects. In situ polymerization of FFD introduced a secondary covalent network to the hydrogel, meanwhile, providing anti-oxidation and adhesion properties to wound surfaces. Furthermore, the dynamic supramolecular interactions within the hydrogels also confer self-healing capabilities to the wound dressing materials. In vivo experiments further demonstrated significantly accelerated healing rates with the multifunctional hydrogel FG3S-FFD, indicating high application potential.

Abstract
Infected wounds pose challenges such as exudate management, bacterial infections, and persistent inflammation, making them a significant challenge for modern dressings. To address these issues in infected wounds more effectively, aerogel-hydrogel biphase gels based on dextran are developed. The gel introduced in this study exhibits antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties in the process of wound therapy, contributing to accelerated wound healing. The aerogel phase exhibits exceptional water-absorption capabilities, rapidly soaking up exudate from infected wound, thereby fostering a clean and hygienic wound healing microenvironment. Concurrently, the aerogel phase is enriched with hydrogen sulfide donors. Following water absorption and the formation of the hydrogel phase, it enables the sustained release of hydrogen sulfide around the wound sites. The experiments confirm that hydrogen sulfide, by promoting M2 macrophage differentiation and reducing the levels of inflammatory factors, effectively diminishes local inflammation levels at the wound site. Furthermore, the sodium copper chlorophyllin component within the hydrogel phase demonstrates effective antibacterial properties through photodynamic antimicrobial therapy, providing a viable solution to wound infection challenges.

Abstract
Three Laminaria japonica polysaccharides (LJPs) extracted via water extraction (LJP-W), acid extraction (LJP-A), and enzymatic extraction (LJP-E) were used as raw materials to be cross-linked with chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol to prepare hydrogels. Compared with conventional hydrogel systems, all three types of LJP-based polysaccharide hydrogels exhibited better swelling properties (14 times their original weight) and the absorption ability of simulated body fluid (first 2 h: 6-10%). They also demonstrated better rigidity and mechanical strength. Young's modulus of LJP-E was 4 times that of the blank. In terms of hemostatic properties, all three polysaccharide hydrogels did not show significant cytotoxic and hemolytic properties. The enzyme- and acid-extracted hydrogels (LJP-Gel-A and LJP-Gel-E) demonstrated better whole-blood coagulant ability compared with the water-extracted hydrogel (LJP-Gel-W), as evidenced by the whole blood coagulation index being half that of LJP-Gel-W. Additionally, the lactate dehydrogenase viabilities of LJP-Gel-A and LJP-Gel-E were significantly higher, at about four and three times those of water extraction, respectively. The above results suggested that LJP-Gel-A and LJP-Gel-E exhibited better blood coagulation capabilities than LJP-Gel-W, due to their enhanced platelet enrichment and adhesion properties. Consequently, these hydrogels are more conducive to promoting coagulation and have good potential for wound hemostasis.

Abstract
Underwater adhesives with injectable, organic solvent-free, strong, fast adhesion, and hemostatic properties have become an urgent need in biomedical field. Herein, a novel polyurethane underwater adhesive (PUWA) inspired by mussels is developed utilizing the rapid post-cure reaction of isocyanate esterification without organic solvents. The PUWA is created through the injectable two component curing process of component A (biocompatible polyurethane prepolymer) and component B (dopamine modified lysine derivatives: chain extender-LDA and crosslinker-L3DA). The two-component adhesive cures quickly and firmly underwater, with an impressive bonding strength of 40 kPa on pork skin and excellent burst pressure of 394 mmHg. Moreover, the PUWA exhibits robust adhesion strength in hostile environments with acid, alkali and saline solutions. Combined with excellent biocompatibility and hemostatic performance, the PUWA demonstrates effectively sealing wounds and promoting healing. With the ability to bond diverse substrates rapidly and strongly, the PUWA holds significant potential for application in both biomedical and industrial fields.

Abstract
Nature has created various organisms with unique chemical components and multi-scale structures (e.g., foot proteins, toe pads, suckers, setose gill lamellae) to achieve wet adhesion functions to adapt to their complex living environments. These organisms can provide inspirations for designing wet adhesives with mediated drug release behaviors in target locations of biological surfaces. They exhibit conformal and enhanced wet adhesion, addressing the bottleneck of weaker tissue interface adhesion in the presence of body fluids. Herein, it is focused on the research progress of different wet adhesion and bioinspired fabrications, including adhesive protein-based adhesion and inspired adhesives (e.g., mussel adhesion); capillarity and Stefan adhesion and inspired adhesive surfaces (e.g., tree frog adhesion); suction-based adhesion and inspired suckers (e.g., octopus' adhesion); interlocking and friction-based adhesion and potential inspirations (e.g., mayfly larva and teleost adhesion). Other secreted protein-induced wet adhesion is also reviewed and various suckers for other organisms and their inspirations. Notably, one representative application scenario of these bioinspired wet adhesives is highlighted, where they function as efficient drug delivery platforms on target tissues and/or organs with requirements of both controllable wet adhesion and optimized drug release. Finally, the challenges of these bioinspired wet drug delivery platforms in the future is presented.

Abstract
The unique network characteristics and stimuli responsiveness of supramolecular hydrogels have rendered them highly advantageous in the field of wound dressings, showcasing unprecedented potential. However, there are few reports on a comprehensive review of supramolecular hydrogel dressings for wound repair and hemostasis. This review first introduces the major cross-linking methods for supramolecular hydrogels, which includes hydrogen bonding, electrostatic interactions, hydrophobic interactions, host-guest interactions, metal ligand coordination and some other interactions. Then, we review the advanced materials reported in recent years and then summarize the basic principles of each cross-linking method. Next, we classify the network structures of supramolecular hydrogels before outlining their forming process and propose their potential future directions. Furthermore, we also discuss the raw materials, structural design principles, and material characteristics used to achieve the advanced functions of supramolecular hydrogels, such as antibacterial function, tissue adhesion, substance delivery, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant functions, cell behavior regulation, angiogenesis promotion, hemostasis and other innovative functions in recent years. Finally, the existing problems as well as future development directions of the cross-linking strategy, network design, and functions in wound repair and hemostasis of supramolecular hydrogels are discussed. This review is proposed to stimulate further exploration of supramolecular hydrogels on wound repair and hemostasis by researchers in the future.

Abstract
Developing injectable antiswelling and high-strength bioactive hydrogels with wet tissue adhesiveness and a rapid gelling process to meet the requirements for rapid hemostasis, sutureless wound closure, and scar-free repair of infected skin wounds continues to have ongoing challenges. Herein, injectable, antibacterial, and antioxidant hydrogel adhesives based on poly(citric acid-co-polyethylene glycol)-g-dopamine and amino-terminated Pluronic F127 (APF) micelles loaded with astragaloside IV (AS) are prepared. The H2O2/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) system is used to cause cross-linking of the hydrogel network through oxidative coupling between catechol groups and chemical cross-linking between the catechol group and the amino group. The hydrogels exhibit a rapid gelling process, high mechanical strength, an antiswelling effect, good antioxidant property, H2O2 release behavior, and degradability. In addition, the hydrogels present good wet tissue adhesiveness, high bursting pressure, excellent antibacterial activity, long-term sustained release of AS, and good biocompatibility. The hydrogels perform good hemostasis on mouse liver, rat liver, and rabbit femoral vein bleeding models and achieve much better closure and healing of skin incisions than biomedical glue and surgical sutures. Furthermore, the hydrogel dressing significantly improved the scar-free repair of MRSA-infected full thickness skin defect wounds by modulating inflammation, regulating the ratio of collagen I/III, and improving the vascularization and granulation tissue formation. Thus, AS-loaded hydrogels show huge potential as multifunctional dressings for in vivo hemostasis, sutureless wound closure, and scar-free repair of infected skin wounds.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Biphasic release, as a special drug-modified release profile that combines immediate and sustained release, allows fast therapeutic action and retains blood drug concentration for long periods. Electrospun nanofibers, particularly those with complex nanostructures produced by multi-fluid electrospinning processes, are potential novel biphasic drug delivery systems (DDSs). AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the most recent developments in electrospinning and related structures. In this review, the role of electrospun nanostructures in biphasic drug release was comprehensively explored. These electrospun nanostructures include monolithic nanofibers obtained through single-fluid blending electrospinning, core-shell and Janus nanostructures prepared via bifluid electrospinning, three-compartment nanostructures obtained via trifluid electrospinning, nanofibrous assemblies obtained through the layer-by-layer deposition of nanofibers, and the combined structure of electrospun nanofiber mats with casting films. The strategies and mechanisms through which complex structures facilitate biphasic release were analyzed. EXPERT OPINION Electrospun structures can provide many strategies for the development of biphasic drug release DDSs. However, many issues such as the scale-up productions of complex nanostructures, the in vivo verification of the biphasic release effects, keeping pace with the developments of multi-fluid electrospinning, drawing support from the state-of-the-art pharmaceutical excipients, and the combination with traditional pharmaceutical methods need to be addressed for real applications.

Abstract
Wound healing is a largely unmet medical issue in trauma, burn, and diabetes. In this study, a pullulan-based and nanoparticle-loaded smart microneedle patch is designed to release drugs differentially based on the needs of wound healing. Chitosan and fucoidan are first used to prepare moxifloxacin (MOX)-loaded nanoparticles (MOXNPs) with a diameter of 258.0 ± 10.86 nm, PDI 0.19 ± 0.06, and surface charge 45.1 ± 3.9 mV. MOXNPs, lidocaine (LH), and thrombin (TH) are then incorporated to a 30 % (w/w) pullulan-based microneedle patch (TH + LH + MOXNPs@MN). TH + LH + MOXNPs@MN possesses uniform and cone-shaped microneedles with a length of 725 μm, demonstrating good biocompatibility, sufficient strength for skin penetration, fast skin dissolution within 55 ± 5 min, rapid release of TH and LH within 1 h, and sustained release of MOX for 24 h. TH + LH + MOXNPs@MN heals mice skin wounds completely within 7 days and restores collagen deposition with accelerated cell proliferation, granulation, and reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines. In conclusion, this study utilizes combined polysaccharides to develop a smart multifunctional microneedle platform that achieves rapid hemostasis/analgesia and sustained bactericidal action. The smart and combined therapy is a potential strategy for high-quality wound healing.

Abstract
Although the past decade has witnessed unprecedented medical advances, achieving rapid and effective hemostasis remains challenging. Uncontrolled bleeding and wound infections continue to plague healthcare providers, increasing the risk of death. Various types of hemostatic materials are nowadays used during clinical practice but have many limitations, including poor biocompatibility, toxicity and biodegradability. Recently, there has been a burgeoning interest in organisms that stick to objects or produce sticky substances. Indeed, applying biological adhesion properties to hemostatic materials remains an interesting approach. This paper reviews the biological behavior, bionics, and mechanisms related to hemostasis. Furthermore, this paper covers the benefits, challenges and prospects of biomimetic hemostatic materials.

Pentoxifylline/Chitosan Films on Wound Healing: In Vitro/In Vivo Evaluation. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15041122.

Abstract
This study aimed to develop films of chitosan (CSF) associated with pentoxifylline (PTX) for healing cutaneous wounds. These films were prepared at two concentrations, F1 (2.0 mg/mL) and F2 (4.0 mg/mL), and the interactions between the materials, structural characteristics, in vitro release, and morphometric aspects of skin wounds in vivo were evaluated. The formation of the CSF film with acetic acid modifies the polymeric structure, and the PTX demonstrates interaction with the CSF, in a semi-crystalline structure, for all concentrations. The release for all films was proportional to the concentration, with two phases: a fast one of ≤2 h and a slow one of >2 h, releasing 82.72 and 88.46% of the drug after 72 h, being governed by the Fickian diffusion mechanism. The wounds of the mice demonstrate a reduction of up to 60% in the area on day 2 for F2 when compared to CSF, F1, and positive control, and this characteristic of faster healing speed for F2 continues until the ninth day with wound reduction of 85%, 82%, and 90% for CSF, F1, and F2, respectively. Therefore, the combination of CSF and PTX is effective in their formation and incorporation, demonstrating that a higher concentration of PTX accelerates skin-wound reduction.

Abstract
It is important to treat a bacterial-infected wound with a hydrogel dressing due to its excellent biocompatibility and extracellular matrix mimicking structure. In this work, the antibacterial curcumin nanoparticles (Cur-NPs) loaded silk fibroin and sodium alginate (SF/SA) composite hydrogels have been developed as dressings for bacterial-infected wound closure. The as-prepared composite hydrogel dressings exhibited excellent biocompatibility and antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in vitro. In addition, the composite hydrogel dressings showed good tissue adhesive strength because of their high viscosity and abundance of amino groups distributed on SF, which can form multi-aldehyde polysaccharides with the tissue surface. The porous 3D structure of the composite hydrogel dressings facilitated the absorption of exudate from the wound site and promoted the fusion of cellular nutrients and metabolites. In the full-thickness skin defect model with and without bacterial infection, the Cur-NPs loaded SF/SA composite hydrogel dressings prominently improves the closure of bacterial-infected wounds by improving cell proliferation, anti-inflammatory properties, vascular remodeling, and collagen deposition.

Abstract
Polysaccharide bio-adhesives used for non-invasive repair often show weak mechanical strength and tissue adhesion, even when covalently modified with dopamine (DA) from mussel proteins and its derivatives. Low cohesion of the polysaccharide adhesives and easy oxidation of DA may result in the low adhesion properties of the polysaccharide-DA adhesives. In this work, we aimed to prepare a series of injectable hydrogel adhesives to improve their cohesion and adhesion by in situ mixing DA with the polysaccharide without covalent modification. The injectable and rapid curing adhesives were prepared by mixing oxidized dextran (ODE) and chitosan (CS) through a Schiff base reaction in the presence (or absence) of DA. The gelation time of the adhesive was customized to be less than 20 s by controlling the amount of ODE, regardless of the amount of DA. Multi-cross-linked (MC) hydrogels were further prepared by adding cross-linking agents such as sodium periodate (NaIO4) and ferric trichloride (FeCl3), and their sol-gel transitions were easily adjusted by changing the amounts of the cross-linking agents. The MC-FeCl3 hydrogel adhesive displayed good tissue adhesion with a lap shear adhesion strength of 345 kPa, which was 43 times that of fibrin glue. Results from Raman spectra, texture profile analyses, and atomic force microscopy images confirmed the enhanced adhesion induced by a higher cohesion of MC-FeCl3, owing to the coordination of Fe3+ and DA and non-covalent and covalent bonds of DA. Moreover, the adhesives showed good biodegradability and biocompatibility. These results demonstrate that the injectable and sticky hydrogels with good adhesion are promising materials for tissue repair.

Abstract
In this study, polysaccharides from Laminaria japonica (LJP) were produced by the treatment of ultraviolet/hydrogen peroxide (UV/H2O2) degradation into different molecular weights. Then, the degraded LJP were used to prepare LJP/chitosan/PVA hydrogel wound dressings. As the molecular weight of LJP decreased from 315 kDa to 20 kDa, the swelling ratio of the LJP-based hydrogels rose from 14.38 ± 0.60 to 20.47 ± 0.42 folds of the original weight. However, the mechanical properties of LJP-based hydrogels slightly decreased. With the extension of the UV/H2O2 degradation time, the molecular weight of LJP gradually decreased, and the anti-inflammatory activities of LJP-based hydrogels gradually increased. LJP that were degraded for 60 min (60-gel) showed the best inhibition effects on proinflammatory cytokines, while the contents of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β decreased by 57.33%, 44.80%, and 67.72%, respectively, compared with the Model group. The above results suggested that low Mw LJP-based hydrogels showed great potential for a wound dressing application.
