Abstract
Multifunctional hydrogel adhesives inhibiting infections and enabling the electrical stimulation (ES) of tissue reparation are highly desirable for the healing of surgical wounds and other skin injuries. Herein, a therapeutic nanocomposite hydrogel is designed by integrating β-cyclodextrin-embedded Ag nanoparticles (CDAgNPs) in a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix enhanced with free β-cyclodextrin (CD) and an atypical macromolecule made of β-glucan grafted with hyaluronic acid (HAG). The main objective is to develop a biocompatible dressing combining the electroconductivity and antibacterial activity of CDAgNPs with the cohesiveness and porosity of PVA and the anti-inflammatory, moisturizing, and cell proliferation-promoting properties of HAG. The last component, CD, is added to strengthen the network structure of the hydrogel. PVA/CD/HAG/CDAgNP exhibited excellent adhesion strength, biocompatibility, electroconductivity, and antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria. In addition, the nanocomposite hydrogel has a swelling ratio and water retention capacity suitable to serve as a wound dressing. PVA/CD/HAG/CDAgNP promoted the proliferation of fibroblast in vitro, accelerated the healing of skin wounds in an animal model, and is hemostatic. Upon ES, the PVA/CD/HAG/CDAgNP nanocomposite hydrogel became more efficient both in vitro and in vivo further speeding up the skin healing process thus demonstrating its potential as a next-generation electroconductive wound dressing.

Integrated photo-inspired antibacterial polyvinyl alcohol/carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogel dressings for pH real-time monitoring and accelerated wound healing. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 238:124123. [PMID: 36963550 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.124123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/26/2023]
Abstract
Recurrent infection of chronic wounds remains a major clinical challenge. Recently, the hydrogel antibacterial materials have attracted extensive attention for preventing infection in wound healing. In this study, a hybrid hydrogel made of polyvinyl alcohol - iodine (PAI), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and carbamino quantum dot (CQDs) was prepared by the cross-linking of hydrogen bonds, named as polyvinyl alcohol‑iodine/sodium carboxymethyl cellulose/carbon quantum dots (PAI/CMC/CQDs). The composite hydrogels exhibited the outstanding photothermal conversion efficiency with near infrared (NIR) light irradiation, and the high antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli). Meanwhile, the elevated temperature of the composite hydrogels up to ~45 °C was able to stimulate the migration of epidermal cell to accelerate skin repair. Given that PAI and CQDs could respond to different pH values (5-8), the real-time would pH information was provided by the visible light and fluorescent light dual monitoring system by naked eye. Moreover, the visible-fluorescent images could be collected and transformed into RGB signals to quantify the would pH levels, avoiding secondary injuries caused by frequent dressing changes. PAI/CMC/CQDs was demonstrated the significant therapeutic effect on chronic wounds by eliminating bacterial infections and promoting skin repair under the smart RGB monitoring system.

Abstract
The bonding strength of the bone-titanium (Ti) implant interface is critical for patients undergoing joint replacement. However, current bone adhesives used in clinic have shortcomings, such as biological inertness, cytotoxicity, and lack of osteogenic ability. In this study, a simple and low-cost hydrogel-based bone adhesive was prepared to improve the osseointegration ability and anti-infection ability of the bone-implant interface. A multifunctional hydrogel was prepared by incorporating nano-hydroxyapatite (HA) on polyethyleneimine (PEI) and polyacrylic acid (PAA) (PEI/PAA-HA). It was shown that PEI/PAA-HA hydrogel exhibited good self-healing and strong adhesive ability. The adhesive strengths of bone-Ti and Ti-Ti were measured as 2.30 ± 0.15 MPa and 1.07 ± 0.07 MPa, respectively. Vancomycin (VAN) was loaded into the PEI/PAA-HA hydrogel (PEI/PAA-HA-VAN) via a simple immersion method. The PEI/PAA-HA-VAN showed excellent antibacterial effect by sustained release of VAN. In addition, the PEI/PAA-HA-VAN hydrogel exhibited excellent cytocompatibility promoting the expression of osteogenic genes and the deposition of mineralized matrix. Collectively, this strong adhesive hydrogel showed great potential in enhancing bone-implant interface fixation.

Abstract
Emerging sutureless wound-closure techniques have led to paradigm shifts in wound management. State-of-the-art biomaterials offer biocompatible and biodegradable platforms enabling high cohesion (toughness) and adhesion for rapid bleeding control as well as robust attachment of implantable devices. Tough bioadhesion stems from the synergistic contributions of cohesive and adhesive interactions. This Review provides a biomacromolecular design roadmap for the development of tough adhesive surgical sealants. We discuss a library of materials and methods to introduce toughness and adhesion to biomaterials. Intrinsically tough and elastic polymers are leveraged primarily by introducing strong but dynamic inter- and intramolecular interactions either through polymer chain design or using crosslink regulating additives. In addition, many efforts have been made to promote underwater adhesion via covalent/noncovalent bonds, or through micro/macro-interlock mechanisms at the tissue interfaces. The materials settings and functional additives for this purpose and the related characterization methods are reviewed. Measurements and reporting needs for fair comparisons of different materials and their properties are discussed. Finally, future directions and further research opportunities for developing tough bioadhesive surgical sealants are highlighted.

Abstract
Achieving fast and secure wound closure without ocular foreign body sensation is highly desired in ophthalmologic surgery. Sutureless approaches using tissue adhesives are gaining popularity, but their practical use is limited by the difficulty in controlling adhesion time and satisfying safety standards without compromising adhesive performance. Herein, we report user-demand hydrogel-forming ocular glues based on multilength photo-crosslinkable hyaluronic acid (HA), achieving firm tissue adhesion under wet and dynamic conditions and possessing cornea-like optical transparency. The HA-based photocurable glue (HA photoglue) quickly seals wounds upon nontoxic low-energy light exposure (320-500 nm, < 5 s, < 1 J cm-2), and its mechanical and adhesive properties are improved by introducing short and long crosslinkable moieties into HA through one-step synthesis, forming multilength networks. Furthermore, the HA photoglue provides stable sealing in wet environments like ocular mucous surface, a clear vision with a light transmittance of more than 95% over the entire visible range, and a lubricating surface with minimal ocular sensation (generating less than 10% frictional force than suture groups). In a rabbit corneal incision model, the HA photoglue showed improved wound healing efficacy based on histological evaluation compared to control groups.

Abstract
Developing new underwater glue adhesives with robust and repeatable adhesion to various surfaces is promising and useful in marine life and medical treatments. In this work, we developed a novel glue based on a copolymer with a cation-co-aromatic sequence where the cationic units contain both catechol and positively charged sites. The glue consists of a crosslinked copolymer of poly(2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl acrylate-co-3-(5-(3,4 dihydroxyphenyl)-4-oxo-3 N-pentyl)imidazolium) bromide in dimethyl sulfoxide. Solidification of the glue, triggered by contact with water, undergoes a coacervation stage and causes a drastic growth of its mechanical properties over time. The glue demonstrates fast-developing, strong, and repeatable underwater adhesion to different materials and can maintain its strength for a long time. The adhesion strength tends to increase with the surface energy of the substrate material, to a maximum value of 160 kPa found in plywood. Experiments conducted in aqueous media with different pH and ionic strengths, including physiological conditions and seawater, showed an even stronger adhesion than that evolved in deionized water. Thus, the developed glue is a promising candidate for use in marine life, tissue adhesives, and other freshwater and saline water applications.

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
Strong underwater adhesives are attractive materials for biomedical healing and underwater repair, but their success in applications has been limited, owing to challenges with underwater setting and with balancing surface adhesion and cohesion. Here, we applied synthetic biology approaches to overcome these challenges through design and synthesis of a novel hybrid protein consisting of the zipper-forming domains of an amyloid protein, flexible spider silk sequences, and a dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA)-containing mussel foot protein (Mfp). This partially structured, hybrid protein can self-assemble into a semi-crystalline hydrogel that exhibits high strength and toughness as well as strong underwater adhesion to a variety of surfaces, including difficult-to-adhere plastics, tendon, and skin. The hydrogel allows selective debonding by oxidation or iron-chelating treatments. Both the material design and the biosynthetic approach explored in this study will inspire future work for a wide range of hybrid protein-based materials with tunable properties and broad applications.

Abstract
Pressure-sensitive adhesives typically used for bandages are nonbiodegradable, inhibiting healing, and may cause an allergic reaction. Here, we investigated the effect of biodegradable copolymers with promising thermomechanical properties on wound healing for their eventual use as biodegradable, biocompatible adhesives. Blends of low molecular weight (LMW) and high molecular weight (HMW) poly(lactide-co-caprolactone) (PLCL) are investigated as tissue adhesives in comparison to a clinical control. Wounds treated with PLCL blend adhesives heal completely with similar vascularization, scarring, and inflammation indicators, yet require fewer dressing changes due to integration of the PLCL adhesive into the wound. A blend of LMW and HMW PLCL produces an adhesive material with significantly higher adhesive strength than either neat polymer. Wound adhesion is comparable to a polyurethane bandage, utilizing conventional nonbiodegradable adhesives designed for extremely strong adhesion.

Abstract
High-throughput screening of mechanical properties can transform materials science research by both aiding in materials discovery and developing predictive models. However, only a few such assays have been reported, requiring custom or expensive equipment, while the mounting demand for enormous data sets of materials properties for predictive models is unfulfilled by the current characterization throughput. We address this problem by developing a high-throughput colorimetric adhesion screening method using a common laboratory centrifuge, multiwell plates, and microparticles. The technique uses centrifugation to apply a homogeneous mechanical detachment force across individual formulations in a multiwell plate. We also develop a high-throughput sample deposition method to prepare films with uniform thickness in each well, minimizing well-to-well variability. After establishing excellent agreement with the well-known probe tack adhesion test, we demonstrate the consistency of our method by performing the test on a multiwell plate with two different formulations in an easily discernible pattern. The throughput is limited only by the number of wells in the plates, easily reaching 103 samples/run. With its simplicity, low cost, and large dynamic range, this high-throughput method has the potential to change the landscape of adhesive material characterization.

Abstract
Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) such as sticky notes and labels are a ubiquitous part of modern society. PSAs with a wide range of peel adhesion strength are designed by tailoring the bulk and surface properties of the adhesive. However, designing an adhesive with strong initial adhesion but showing an on-demand decrease in adhesion has been an enduring challenge in the design of PSAs. To address this challenge, we designed alkoxyphenacyl-based polyurethane (APPU) PSAs that show a photoactivated increase and decrease in peel strength. With increasing time of light exposure, the failure mode of our PSAs shifted from cohesive to adhesive failure, providing residue-free removal with up to 83% decrease in peel strength. The APPU-PSAs also adhere to substrates submerged underwater and show a similar photoinduced decrease in adhesion strength.

Ex Vivo Comparison of a UV-Polymerizable Methacrylate Adhesive versus an Inverting Pattern as the Second Layer of a Two-Layer Hand-Sewn Jejunal Anastomosis in Horses: A Pilot Study.

Abstract
Resection and anastomosis of small intestine during colic can lead to adhesions and recurrent colic. Several methods are available to reduce the rate of adhesions in the postoperative period, such as the use of serosal barriers. Surgical glues form a smooth surface, are fast to apply, and could reduce surgery time when performing anastomosis. A recently developed UV-polymerizable methacrylate adhesive (UV-PMA) is designed to anchor into the biological tissues' top surface offering sealant and a smooth cover over the anastomosis site. This adhesive was used ex vivo on fifteen samples of equine jejunum as the second layer of a two-layer anastomosis (1L-UV-PMA group) and compared to a two-layer anastomosis (simple continuous pattern covered with a Cushing pattern; 2L-CT group), in terms of feasibility, bursting strength pressure (BSP), luminal diameter reduction (LDR), and time of construction. Data were analysed using a paired t-test or a chi2-test (P < 0.05). The results showed no statistical difference in BSP, LDR, or any mode of failure between the two anastomosis types. However, the glue anastomosis formed a tunnel-like anastomosis and shredded under pressure, before apparition of leakage, preventing its usage in clinical cases with this methodology. It was concluded that modification of the technique is warranted before testing in clinical cases. A preprint of a former version of the manuscript is available on researchsquare.com, which was not conducted to print and publication after peer reviewing. Since then, the manuscript has been modified to this current version.

Abstract
Thread size and polymer composition are critical properties to consider for achieving a positive healing outcome with a wound dressing. Three-dimensional (3D) printed scaffolds and electrospun mats both offer distinct advantages as replaceable wound dressings. This research aims to determine if the thread size and polymer compositions of the scaffolds affect skin wound healing outcomes, an aspect that has not been adequately explored. Using a modular polymer platform, four polyester direct-write 3D printed scaffolds and electrospun mats were fabricated into wound dressings. The dressings were applied to splinted, full thickness skin wounds in an excisional wound rat model and evaluated against control wounds to which no dressing was applied. Wound closure rates and reduction of the wound bed width were not affected by the thread size or polymer composition. However, epidermal thickness was larger in wounds treated with electrospun dressings and was slightly affected by the polymer composition. Two of the four tested polymer compositions lead to delayed reorganization of granulation tissues. Moreover, enhanced angiogenesis was seen in wounds treated with 3D printed dressings compared to those treated with electrospun dressings. The results from this study can be used to inform the choice of dressing architecture and polymer compositions to achieve positive wound healing outcomes.

Abstract
To enable attachment to underwater surfaces, aquatic fauna such as mussels and sandcastle worms utilize the advantages of coacervation to deliver concentrated protein-rich adhesive cocktails in an aqueous environment onto underwater surfaces. Recently, a mussel adhesive protein Mfp-3s, was shown to exhibit a coacervation-based adhesion mechanism. Current synthetic strategies to mimic Mfp-3s often involve complexation of oppositely charged polymers. Such complex coacervates are more sensitive to changes in pH and salt, thereby limiting their utility to narrow ranges of pH and ionic strength. In this study, by taking advantage of the lower critical solution temperature-driven coacervation, we have created mussel foot protein-inspired, tropoelastin-like, bioabsorbable, nonionic, self-coacervating polyesters for the delivery of photo-cross-linkable adhesives underwater and to overcome the challenges of adhesion in wet or underwater environments. We describe the rationale for their design and the underwater adhesive properties of these nonionic adhesives. Compared to previously reported coacervate adhesives, these "charge-free" polyesters coacervate in wide ranges of pH (3-12) and ionic strength (0-1 M NaCl) and rapidly (<300 s) adhere to substrates submerged underwater. The study introduces smart materials that mimic the self-coacervation and environmental stability of Mfp-3s and demonstrate the potential for biological adhesive applications where high water content, salts, and pH changes can be expected.

Abstract
Driven by the clinical need for a strong tissue adhesive with elastomeric material properties, a departure from legacy crosslinking chemistries was sought as a multipurpose platform for tissue mending. A fresh approach to bonding wet substrates has yielded a synthetic biomaterial that overcomes the drawbacks of free-radical and nature-inspired bioadhesives. A food-grade liquid polycaprolactone grafted with carbene precursors yields CaproGlu. The first-of-its-kind low-viscosity prepolymer is VOC-free and requires no photoinitiators. Grafted diazirine end-groups form carbene diradicals upon low energy UVA (365 nm) activation that immediately crosslink tissue surfaces; no pre-heating or animal-derived components are required. The hydrophobic polymeric environment enables metastable functional groups not possible in formulations requiring solvents or water. Activated diazirine within CaproGlu is uniquely capable of crosslinking all amino acids, even on wet tissue substrates. CaproGlu undergoes rapid liquid-to-biorubber transition within seconds of UVA exposure-features not found in any other bioadhesive. The exceptional shelf stability of CaproGlu allows gamma sterilization with no change in material properties. CaproGlu wet adhesiveness is challenged against current unmet clinical needs: anastomosis of spliced blood vessels, anesthetic muscle patches, and human platelet-mediating coatings. The versatility of CaproGlu enables both organic and inorganic composites for future bioadhesive platforms.

Abstract
To stop blood loss and accelerate wound healing, conventional wound closure techniques such as sutures and staples are currently used in the clinic. These tissue-piercing wound closure techniques have several disadvantages such as the potential for causing inflammation, infections, and scar formation. Surgical sealants and tissue adhesives can address some of the disadvantages of current sutures and staples. An ideal tissue adhesive will demonstrate strong interfacial adhesion and cohesive strength to wet tissue surfaces. Most reported studies rely on the liquid-to-solid transition of organic molecules by taking advantage of polymerization and crosslinking reactions for improving the cohesive strength of the adhesives. Crosslinking reactions triggered using light are commonly used for increasing tissue adhesive strength since the reactions can be controlled spatially and temporally, providing the on-demand curing of the adhesives with minimum misplacements. In this review, we describe the recent advances in the field of naturally derived tissue adhesives and sealants in which the adhesive and cohesive strengths are modulated using photochemical reactions.
