Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 273:132909.

Abstract
The pathological changes in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) include the disruption of intestinal barrier function and the infiltration of pathogenic microbes. The application of an artificial protective barrier at the site of inflammation can prevent bacterial infiltration, promote epithelial cell migration, and accelerate wound healing. In this study, dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HA-DA) was developed as a bioadhesive self-cross-linkable hydrogel, which acted as an enteroprotective agent to promote the healing of inflamed intestinal tissue. The adhesion strength HA-DA to mouse colon was 3.81-fold higher than HA. Moreover, HA-DA promoted Caco-2 cell proliferation and migration as well as had a strong physical barrier effect after gelation. After oral administration, the HA-DA reduced weight loss and attenuated impaired goblet cell function in mice with dextran sodium sulfate-induced IBD. In addition, HA-DA promoted restoration of the epithelial barrier by the upregulation of tight junction proteins. The results reported herein substantiated that self-cross-linkable hydrogel-based enteroprotective agents are a promising approach for the treatment of IBD.

Abstract
The incorporation of engineered muscle-tendon junction (MTJ) with organ-on-a-chip technology provides promising in vitro models for the understanding of cell-cell interaction at the interface between muscle and tendon tissues. However, developing engineered MTJ tissue with biomimetic anatomical interface structure remains challenging, and the precise co-culture of engineered interface tissue is further regarded as a remarkable obstacle. Herein, an interwoven waving approach is presented to develop engineered MTJ tissue with a biomimetic "M-type" interface structure, and further integrated into a precise co-culture microfluidic device for functional MTJ-on-a-chip fabrication. These multiscale MTJ scaffolds based on electrospun nanofiber yarns enabled 3D cellular alignment and differentiation, and the "M-type" structure led to cellular organization and interaction at the interface zone. Crucially, a compartmentalized co-culture system is integrated into an MTJ-on-a-chip device for the precise co-culture of muscle and tendon zones using their medium at the same time. Such an MTJ-on-a-chip device is further served for drug-associated MTJ toxic or protective efficacy investigations. These results highlight that these interwoven nanofibrous scaffolds with biomimetic "M-type" interface are beneficial for engineered MTJ tissue development, and MTJ-on-a-chip with precise co-culture system indicated their promising potential as in vitro musculoskeletal models for drug development and biological mechanism studies.

Abstract
Partial-thickness cartilage defect (PTCD) is a common and formidable clinical challenge without effective therapeutic approaches. The inherent anti-adhesive characteristics of the extracellular matrix within cartilage pose a significant impediment to the integration of cells or biomaterials with the native cartilage during cartilage repair. Here, an injectable photocrosslinked bioadhesive hydrogel, consisting of gelatin methacryloyl (GM), acryloyl-6-aminocaproic acid-g-N-hydroxysuccinimide (AN), and poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) microspheres loaded with kartogenin (KGN) (abbreviated as GM/AN/KGN hydrogel), is designed to enhance interfacial integration and repair of PTCD. After injected in situ at the irregular defect, a stable and robust hydrogel network is rapidly formed by ultraviolet irradiation, and it can be quickly and tightly adhered to native cartilage through amide bonds. The hydrogel exhibits good adhesion strength up to 27.25 ± 1.22 kPa by lap shear strength experiments. The GM/AN/KGN hydrogel demonstrates good adhesion, low swelling, resistance to fatigue, biocompatibility, and chondrogenesis properties in vitro. A rat model with PTCD exhibits restoration of a smoother surface, stable seamless integration, and abundant aggrecan and type II collagen production. The injectable stable adhesive hydrogel with long-term chondrogenic differentiation capacity shows great potential to facilitate repair of PTCD.

Abstract
Shape memory polymers (SMPs) responsive to various external stimuli can realize a complex shape transformation process and have attracted extensive attention. However, integrating multiple stimulus-responsive mechanisms in one material often requires a complex molecular design and synthesis procedure. In this work, we designed a novel dual-responsive heterogeneous hydrogel (PU-PAM/Alg/PDA), which was manufactured through in situ free radical polymerization of acrylamide (AM) in the presence of alginate (Alg) and polydopamine (PDA) in a porous polycaprolactone-based polyurethane foam (PU-foam). The PU-PAM/Alg/PDA hydrogel could achieve thermal responsiveness through melting-crystallization transformation of polycaprolactone (PCL), while the metallo-supramolecular interactions between Alg and Fe3+ could provide ion responsiveness for this hydrogel. This dual-programmable feature endowed the heterogeneous hydrogel with a complex shape-morphing behavior and also a reconfiguration ability for the permanent shape. Meanwhile, the strong hydrogen bondings between PDA and polyurethane chains enhanced the interfacial adhesions, resulting in the structural integrity and excellent mechanical property of PU-PAM/Alg/PDA. The in vitro and in vivo tests revealed the good biocompatibility of the heterogeneous hydrogel, and the potential of the heterogeneous hydrogel as an esophageal stent was evaluated in vitro as conceptual proof.

Abstract
For the treatment of MRSA-infected wounds, the spatiotemporally sequential delivery of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs is a promising strategy. In this study, ROS-responsive HA-PBA/PVA (HPA) hydrogel was prepared by phenylborate ester bond cross-linking between hyaluronic acid-grafted 3-amino phenylboronic acid (HA-PBA) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to achieve spatiotemporally controlled release of two kinds of drug to treat MRSA-infected wound. The hydrophilic antibiotic moxifloxacin (M) was directly loaded in the hydrogel. And hydrophobic curcumin (Cur) with anti-inflammatory function was first mixed with Pluronic F127 (PF) to form Cur-encapsulated PF micelles (Cur-PF), and then loaded into the HPA hydrogel. Due to the different hydrophilic and hydrophobic nature of moxifloxacin and Cur and their different existing forms in the HPA hydrogel, the final HPA/M&Cur-PF hydrogel can achieve different spatiotemporally sequential delivery of the two drugs. In addition, the swelling, degradation, self-healing, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant property, and biocompatibility of hydrogels were tested. Finally, in the MRSA-infected mouse skin wound, the hydrogel-treated group showed faster wound closure, less inflammation and more collagen deposition. Immunofluorescence experiments further confirmed that the hydrogel promoted better repair by reducing inflammation (TNF-α) and promoting vascular (VEGF) regeneration. In conclusion, this HPA/M&Cur-PF hydrogel that can spatiotemporally sequential deliver antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs showed great potential for the repair of MRSA-infected skin wounds.

Abstract
Introduction: Smart elastomers, which possess self-healing and shape memory capabilities, have immense potential in the field of biomedical applications. Polycarbonates and polyesters have gained widespread interest due to their remarkable biocompatibility over the last century. Nevertheless, the lack of functional versatility in conventional polyesters and polycarbonates means that they fall short of meeting the ever-evolving demands of the future. Methods: This paper introduced a new smart elastomer, named mPEG43-b-(PMBC-co-PCL)n, developed from polyester and polycarbonate blends, that possessed shape memory and self-heal capabilities via a physical crosslinking system. Results: The material demonstrated a significant tensile strength of 0.38 MPa and a tensile ratio of 1155.6%, highlighting its favorable mechanical properties. In addition, a conspicuous shape retrieval rate of 93% was showcased within 32.5 seconds at 37°C. Remarkably, the affected area could be repaired proficiently with no irritation experienced during 6h at room temperature, which was indicative of an admirable repair percentage of 87.6%. Furthermore, these features could be precisely modified by altering the proportion of MBC and ε-CL to suit individual constraints. Discussion: This innovative elastomer with exceptional shape memory and self-heal capabilities provides a solid basis and promising potential for the development of self-contracting intelligent surgical sutures in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Designing a multifunctional conducting hydrogel wound dressing of suitable mechanical properties, adhesiveness, self-healing, autolytic debridement, antibacterial properties, and radical scavenging ability, as well as retaining an appropriate level of moisture around the wound is highly desirable in clinical application for treating cutaneous wounds healing. Here, we designed a novel class of electroactive hydrogel based on thiol-functionalized silver-graphene oxide nanoparticles (GO/Ag/TGA) core polyaniline (PANI) shell GO/Ag/TGA/PANI nanocomposites. Thus, a series of physically cross-linked hydrogel based on GO/Ag/TGA/PANI and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was prepared by freeze-thawing method. The hydrogel was characterized by XRD, UV, FTIR, TGA, TEM, SEM, Raman spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry (CV), and four probes test. The hydrogel showed favorable properties such as excellent tensile strength, suitable gelation time (30-56 s), tunable rheological properties (G' ∼ 1 kPa), adhesiveness, and interconnected porous structure (freeze-dried). Besides this, the hydrogel also exhibits excellent exudate uptake capacity (10.4-0.2 g/g), high swelling ratio (72.4 to 93.5%), long-term antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial isolates, promising antioxidant (radical scavenging) efficiency, keeping the wound moisturized, prominent hemostatic efficiency, and fast self-healing ability to bear deformation. Interestingly, in vivo experiments indicated that electroactive hydrogels can significantly promote the healing rate of artificial wounds in rats, and histological analysis by H&E reveals higher granulation tissue thickness, collagen deposition, hair follicles, dermal papillary, keratinocytes, and marked increase (P < 0.05) in hydroxyproline at the wound site during 15 days of healing of impaired wounds. On the basis of vivo and vitro assay results, it is concluded that electroactive-hydrogel-attributed multifunctional properties may serve as suitable scaffold for treating chronic wound healing and skin regeneration.

Abstract
Polymeric shape-memory elastomers can recover to a permeant shape from any programmed deformation under external stimuli. They are mostly cross-linked polymeric materials and can be shaped by three-dimensional (3D) printing. However, 3D printed shape-memory polymers so far only exhibit elasticity above their transition temperature, which results in their programmed shape being inelastic or brittle at lower temperatures. To date, 3D printed shape-memory elastomers with elasticity both below and above their transition temperature remain an elusive goal, which limits the application of shape-memory materials as elastic materials at low temperatures. In this paper, we printed, for the first time, a custom-developed shape-memory elastomer based on polyethylene glycol using digital light processing, which possesses elasticity and stretchability in a wide temperature range, below and above the transition temperature. Young's modulus in these two states can vary significantly, with a difference of up to 2 orders of magnitude. This marked difference in Young's modulus imparts excellent shape-memory properties to the material. The difference in Young's modulus at different temperatures allows for the programming of the pneumatic actuators by heating and softening specific areas. Consequently, a single actuator can exhibit distinct movement modes based on the programming process it undergoes.

Synergetic Effect of Electrical and Topographical Cues in Aniline Trimer-Based Polyurethane Fibrous Scaffolds on Tissue Regeneration. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14040185. [PMID: 37103277 PMCID: PMC10146274 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14040185] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Revised: 03/24/2023] [Accepted: 03/25/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Processibility and biodegradability of conductive polymers are major concerns when they are applied to tissue regeneration. This study synthesizes dissolvable and conductive aniline trimer-based polyurethane copolymers (DCPU) and processes them into scaffolds by using electrospinning with different patterns (random, oriented, and latticed). The effects of topographic cue changes on electrical signal transmission and further regulation of cell behaviors concerning bone tissue are researched. Results show that DCPU fibrous scaffolds possessed good hydrophilicity, swelling capacity, elasticity, and fast biodegradability in enzymatic liquid. In addition, the conductivity and efficiency of electrical signal transmission can be tuned by changing the surface’s topological structure. Among them, oriented DCPU scaffolds (DCPU-O) showed the best conductivity with the lowest ionic resistance value. Furthermore, the viability and proliferation results of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) demonstrate a significant increase on three DCPU scaffolds compared to AT-free scaffolds (DPU-R). Especially, DCPU-O scaffolds exhibit superior abilities to promote cell proliferation because of their unique surface topography and excellent electroactivity. Concurrently, the DCPU-O scaffolds can synergistically promote osteogenic differentiation in terms of osteogenic differentiation and gene expression levels when combined with electrical stimulation. Together, these results suggest a promising use of DCPU-O fibrous scaffolds in the application of tissue regeneration.

Abstract
New conductive materials for tissue engineering are needed for the development of regenerative strategies for nervous, muscular, and heart tissues. Polycaprolactone (PCL) is used to obtain biocompatible and biodegradable nanofiber scaffolds by electrospinning. MXenes, a large class of biocompatible 2D nanomaterials, can make polymer scaffolds conductive and hydrophilic. However, an understanding of how their physical properties affect potential biomedical applications is still lacking. We immobilized Ti3C2Tx MXene in several layers on the electrospun PCL membranes and used positron annihilation analysis combined with other techniques to elucidate the defect structure and porosity of nanofiber scaffolds. The polymer base was characterized by the presence of nanopores. The MXene surface layers had abundant vacancies at temperatures of 305-355 K, and a voltage resonance at 8 × 104 Hz with the relaxation time of 6.5 × 106 s was found in the 20-355 K temperature interval. The appearance of a long-lived component of the positron lifetime was observed, which was dependent on the annealing temperature. The study of conductivity of the composite scaffolds in a wide temperature range, including its inductive and capacity components, showed the possibility of the use of MXene-coated PCL membranes as conductive biomaterials. The electronic structure of MXene and the defects formed in its layers were correlated with the biological properties of the scaffolds in vitro and in bacterial adhesion tests. Double and triple MXene coatings formed an appropriate environment for cell attachment and proliferation with mild antibacterial effects. A combination of structural, chemical, electrical, and biological properties of the PCL-MXene composite demonstrated its advantage over the existing conductive scaffolds for tissue engineering.

Abstract
In tissue engineering, polyurethane-based implants have gained significant traction because of their high compatibility and inertness. The implants therefore show fewer side effects and lasts longer. Also, the mechanical properties can be tuned and morphed into a particular shape, owing to which polyurethanes show immense versatility. In the last 3 years, scientists have devised methods to enhance the strength of and induce dynamic properties in polyurethanes, and these developments offer an immense opportunity to use them in tissue engineering. The focus of this review is on applications of polyurethane implants for biomedical application with detailed analysis of hard tissue implants like bone tissues and soft tissues like cartilage, muscles, skeletal tissues, and blood vessels. The synthetic routes for the preparation of scaffolds have been discussed to gain a better understanding of the issues that arise regarding toxicity. The focus here is also on concerns regarding the biocompatibility of the implants, given that the precursors and byproducts are poisonous.

Abstract
Antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic properties are prerequisites for dressing materials that accelerate the healing process of infected wounds. Herein, we report a magnesium-doped silica bioactive glass (SiO2/MgO) nanofiber membrane prepared by electrospinning. Our results demonstrate that this SiO2/MgO nanofiber membrane has good flexibility and hydrophilicity, which give it intimate contact with wound beds. In vitro assessments illustrate its good cytocompatibility and bioactivity that contribute to its robust cell proliferation and angiogenesis. It shows capacity in modulating the cellular inflammatory response of murine macrophages. In addition, in vitro assays prove its good antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains. In a full-thickness skin defect inoculated with Staphylococcus aureus in mice, it effectively inhibits bacterial infection. Both gene expression and histological/immunohistochemical analyses confirmed the down-regulated pro-inflammatory factors, up-regulated anti-inflammatory factors, and enhanced angiogenesis. Taken together, these desirable properties work in concert to contribute to the rapid healing of infected wounds and make it a good candidate for wound dressing materials.

Abstract
A proper self-regenerating capability is lacking in human cardiac tissue which along with the alarming rate of deaths associated with cardiovascular disorders makes tissue engineering critical. Novel approaches are now being investigated in order to speedily overcome the challenges in this path. Tissue engineering has been revolutionized by the advent of nanomaterials, and later by the application of carbon-based nanomaterials because of their exceptional variable functionality, conductivity, and mechanical properties. Electrically conductive biomaterials used as cell bearers provide the tissue with an appropriate microenvironment for the specific seeded cells as substrates for the sake of protecting cells in biological media against attacking mechanisms. Nevertheless, their advantages and shortcoming in view of cellular behavior, toxicity, and targeted delivery depend on the tissue in which they are implanted or being used as a scaffold. This review seeks to address, summarize, classify, conceptualize, and discuss the use of carbon-based nanoparticles in cardiac tissue engineering emphasizing their conductivity. We considered electrical conductivity as a key affecting the regeneration of cells. Correspondingly, we reviewed conductive polymers used in tissue engineering and specifically in cardiac repair as key biomaterials with high efficiency. We comprehensively classified and discussed the advantages of using conductive biomaterials in cardiac tissue engineering. An overall review of the open literature on electroactive substrates including carbon-based biomaterials over the last decade was provided, tabulated, and thoroughly discussed. The most commonly used conductive substrates comprising graphene, graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, and carbon nanofibers in cardiac repair were studied.

Pro-Myogenic Environment Promoted by the Synergistic Effect of Conductive Polymer Nanocomposites Combined with Extracellular Zinc Ions. BIOLOGY 2022; 11:biology11121706.

Abstract
A new strategy based on the combination of electrically conductive polymer nanocomposites and extracellular Zn2+ ions as a myogenic factor was developed to assess its ability to synergically stimulate myogenic cell response. The conductive nanocomposite was prepared with a polymeric matrix and a small amount of graphene (G) nanosheets (0.7% wt/wt) as conductive filler to produce an electrically conductive surface. The nanocomposites' surface electrical conductivity presented values in the range of human skeletal muscle tissue. The biological evaluation of the cell environment created by the combination of the conductive surface and extracellular Zn2+ ions showed no cytotoxicity and good cell adhesion (murine C2C12 myoblasts). Amazingly, the combined strategy, cell-material interface with conductive properties and Zn bioactive ions, was found to have a pronounced synergistic effect on myoblast proliferation and the early stages of differentiation. The ratio of differentiated myoblasts cultured on the conductive nanocomposites with extracellular Zn2+ ions added in the differentiation medium (serum-deprived medium) was enhanced by more than 170% over that of non-conductive surfaces (only the polymeric matrix), and more than 120% over both conductive substrates (without extracellular Zn2+ ions) and non-conductive substrates with extracellular Zn2+. This synergistic effect was also found to increase myotube density, myotube area and diameter, and multinucleated myotube formation. MyoD-1 gene expression was also enhanced, indicating the positive effect in the early stages of myogenic differentiation. These results demonstrate the great potential of this combined strategy, which stands outs for its simplicity and robustness, for skeletal muscle tissue engineering applications.

Abstract
Polyurethanes are gaining increasing interest for their use as structural components subjected to cyclic loads, such as leaf springs. Thermoset polyurethane (PUR) based technology offers some advantages, such as fatigue resistance, low viscosity, and fast curing. However, current PUR formulations present two major drawbacks: their petrochemical origin and high reactivity. The aim of this work was to develop a novel biobased PUR (BIO-PUR) with the required mechanical properties and processability for manufacturing structural composites by resin transfer moulding (RTM). For this purpose, a high functionality and high hydroxyl index castor-oil-based polyol was used combined with a biobased glycerol (BIO-Gly) to increase the crosslinking density and improve the final properties of the BIO-PUR. The viscosity and reactivity of the different systems were studied by means of rheology tests and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Thermal and mechanical properties were studied by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and flexural tests. Furthermore, the RTM process of a representative part was simulated and validated through the manufacturing and testing of plates. The properties of the BIO-PUR resin systems were strongly influenced by the addition of biobased glycerol and its effect on the crosslinking density. The combination of a high functionality and hydroxyl index biobased polyol with the biobased glycerol resulted in a high-performance BIO-PUR with the required reactivity and final properties for structural applications.

Abstract
As the food processing by-products, hericium erinaceus residues (HER) and pineapple peel (PP) are good sources of cellulose and chitosan that can be prepared into hydrogels for structuring a drug delivery system. Hydrogel is one new type biomaterial for drug delivery with excellent absorbent ability applied in wound dressing. In this research, one composite self-healing hydrogel with pH sensitivity for drug delivery system based on the Schiff-base reaction was fabricated. Therein aldehyde group of oxidized microcrystalline cellulose (OMCC) from PP were crosslinked with amino group of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) from HER via Schiff-base reaction for structuring hydrogels. The structures of the prepared hydrogels were characterized. Meanwhile, its blood clotting activity and physical properties were investigated. The hydrogels show some favorable performances with suitable gel time (54 s of minimum), distinguish swelling rate (about 31.18 g/g), good mechanical, self-healing characteristic and well coagulation effect. The cumulative release of the rutin-loaded hydrogel OMCM-54 reached about 80 % within 6 h, suggesting the well-controlled release of rutin by crosslinking degree between the modified OMCC and CMCS based on Schiff-base reaction. The novel biomaterial based on hericium erinaceus residues and pineapple peel shows its potential use as wound dressing.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide and the most common cause is myocardial infarction. Therefore, appropriate approaches should be used to repair damaged heart tissue. Recently, cardiac tissue engineering approaches have been extensively studied. Since the creation of the nature of cardiovascular tissue engineering, many advances have been made in cellular and scaffolding technologies. Due to the hydrated and porous structures of the hydrogel, they are used as a support matrix to deliver cells to the infarct tissue. In heart tissue regeneration, bioactive and biodegradable hydrogels are required by simulating native tissue microenvironments to support myocardial wall stress in addition to preserving cells. Recently, the use of nanostructured hydrogels has increased the use of nanocomposite hydrogels and has revolutionized the field of cardiac tissue engineering. Therefore, to overcome the limitation of the use of hydrogels due to their mechanical fragility, various nanoparticles of polymers, metal, and carbon are used in tissue engineering and create a new opportunity to provide hydrogels with excellent properties. Here, the types of synthetic and natural polymer hydrogels, nanocarbon-based hydrogels, and other nanoparticle-based materials used for cardiac tissue engineering with emphasis on conductive nanostructured hydrogels are briefly introduced.

Abstract
As a type of elastomeric polymers, non-degradable polyurethanes (PUs) have a long history of being used in clinics, whereas biodegradable PUs have been developed in recent decades, primarily for tissue repair and regeneration. Biodegradable thermoplastic (linear) PUs are soft and elastic polymeric biomaterials with high mechanical strength, which mimics the mechanical properties of soft and elastic tissues. Therefore, biodegradable thermoplastic polyurethanes are promising scaffolding materials for soft and elastic tissue repair and regeneration. Generally, PUs are synthesized by linking three types of changeable blocks: diisocyanates, diols, and chain extenders. Alternating the combination of these three blocks can finely tailor the physio-chemical properties and generate new functional PUs. These PUs have excellent processing flexibilities and can be fabricated into three-dimensional (3D) constructs using conventional and/or advanced technologies, which is a great advantage compared with cross-linked thermoset elastomers. Additionally, they can be combined with biomolecules to incorporate desired bioactivities to broaden their biomedical applications. In this review, we comprehensively summarized the synthesis, structures, and properties of biodegradable thermoplastic PUs, and introduced their multiple applications in tissue repair and regeneration. A whole picture of their design and applications along with discussions and perspectives of future directions would provide theoretical and technical supports to inspire new PU development and novel applications.

Injectable shape memory hydroxyethyl cellulose/soy protein isolate based composite sponge with antibacterial property for rapid noncompressible hemorrhage and prevention of wound infection. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 217:367-380.

Abstract
Uncontrollable hemorrhage and subsequent wound infection are severe threats to life, especially for the deep noncompressible massive bleeding. However, traditional hemostatic materials are ineffective for extreme bleeding and subsequent wound infection. Here, we prepared an injectable shape memory hydroxyethyl cellulose/soy protein isolate based composite sponge (EHSS) for rapid noncompressible hemorrhage and prevention of wound infection. The nano silver (AgNPs)-loaded shape memory sponge (EHP@Ag) was fabricated by mussel-inspired polydopamine coating EHSS sponge, then reducing and immobilizing AgNPs in situ. The EHP@Ag sponges showed rapid blood-triggered shape recovery speed, which is beneficial for administering noncompressible hemorrhage. The results of the hemostatic experiment in vivo demonstrated that EHP@Ag sponge exhibited a desirable hemostasis effect (hemostasis time: 22.75 ± 3.86 s, blood loss: 285.25 ± 24.93 mg) compared to the commercial gelatin sponge (hemostasis time: 49.25 ± 3.30 s, blood loss: 755.50 ± 24.45 mg). Meanwhile, the EHP@Ag sponge has an efficient antibacterial property. Furthermore, the antibacterial experiment in vivo showed that the EHP@Ag sponges could kill bacteria effectively and reduce the bacteria-induced inflammatory response. In summary, the shape memory sponges can quickly control bleeding and avoid bacterial infection, which shows great potential for clinical application as a multifunctional hemostatic agent.

Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is an important neurotransmitter; however, any excess or deficiency of DA will cause several diseases in humans. To monitor DA efficiently and conveniently, a Ag nanozyme strengthened by bioactive folic acid (FA@AgNPs) was developed by homogeneous redox assembly. After the microstructure and performance were characterized in detail, it was noted that the proposed FA@AgNPs possessed superior peroxidase-like activity due to the ultra-small Ag nanoparticles and multiple amino, hydroxyl, and aromatic rings in FA. FA@AgNPs accelerated the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) with a low Michaelis constant (Km) and high maximal reaction rate (Vmax). Importantly, the characteristic absorbance intensity of FA@AgNPs-TMB-H2O2 at 652 nm (A652) was exclusively deteriorated in the presence of trace DA, accompanied by a visual color change from blue to colorless. Under the optimized conditions (pH 4.0, 300 μL 1.5 mM TMB, 300 μL 1.0 M H2O2 and incubated for 30 min at room temperature), there expressed an excellent linear relationship between lgA0/A652 and cDA from 1.0 ×10-8 to 6.67×10-6 mol/L with a low limit detection of 7.1×10-10 mol/L (S/N=3). When applied for monitoring of DA in real fruit juice and pharmaceutical samples, the recovery was between 96.6% and 104.9%, with RSD less than 2.2%. The enhanced peroxidase-like activity of the FA@AgNP system and its selective recognition mechanism for DA are also proposed.

Abstract
The development of compressible, stretchable and self-healing hydrogel dressings with good adhesive, antibacterial and angiogenesis properties is needed to promote the regeneration of diabetic wounds in clinical applications. In this work, a series of self-healing, adhesive and antibacterial hydrogels based on gelatin methacrylate (GelMA), adenine acrylate (AA), and CuCl2 were designed through covalent bonding, coordination complexation of Cu2+ and carboxyl groups and hydrogen bonding to promote diabetic wound healing. These hydrogels exhibit efficient self-healing properties, remarkable fatigue resistance, and good adhesive properties due to the hydrogen bond and the metal-ligand coordination provided by the Cu2+ and the carboxyl group. The GelMA/AA/Cu1.0 hydrogel (containing 1.0 mg/mL Cu2+) with well-balanced biocompatibility and antibacterial properties exhibited efficient hemostatic performance in a mouse liver trauma model and significantly promoted the healing process in a full-thickness skin diabetic wound model. The immunohistochemistry results showed that the GelMA/AA/Cu1.0 hydrogel can promote regular epithelialization and collagen deposition when compared to the TegadermTM Film, GelMA hydrogel, and GelMA/AA/Cu0 hydrogel. The immunofluorescence results confirmed that the GelMA/AA/Cu1.0 hydrogel can reduce the expression of proinflammatory factors and promote angiogenesis. In conclusion, the GelMA/AA/Cu hydrogel is an effective wound dressing to promote the healing process of diabetic skin wounds. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Diabetic wounds exhibit an extremely high risk of bacterial infection and poor angiogenesis in a high-sugar environment, hindering their healing process. Hydrogel wound dressings are a promising wound care material that need to have stable and long-lasting adhesive properties, avoid shedding, provide lasting protection to wounds, antibacterial properties and promote angiogenesis. In this study, a series of self-healing, adhesive, and antibacterial hydrogels based on gelatin methacrylate (GelMA), acrylated adenine (AA), and CuCl2 were designed and synthesized via free radical polymerization, hydrogen bond, and ionic bond to promote diabetic wound healing. Overall, GelMA/AA/Cu hydrogels are promising materials to promote diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
Polyphenolic materials are a class of fascinating and versatile bioinspired materials for biointerfacial engineering. In particular, due to the presence of active chemical groups, a series of unique physicochemical properties become accessible and tunable of the as-prepared polyphenolic platforms, which could delicately regulate the cell activities via cell-material contact-dependent interactions. More interestingly, polyphenols could also affect the cell behaviors via cell-material contact-independent manner, which arise due to their intrinsically functional characteristics (e.g., antioxidant and photothermal behaviors). As such, a comprehensive understanding on the relationship between material properties and desired biomedical applications, as well as the underlying mechanism at the cellular and molecular level would provide material design principles and accelerate the lab-to-clinic translation of polyphenolic platforms. In this review, we firstly give a brief overview of cell hallmarks governed by surrounding cues, followed by the introduction of polyphenolic material engineering strategies. Subsequently, a detailed discussion on cell-polyphenols contact-dependent interfacial interaction and contact-independent interaction was also carefully provided. Lastly, their biomedical applications were elaborated. We believe that this review could provide guidances for the rational material design of multifunctional polyphenols and extend their application window.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and the ever-increasing bacterial resistance have imposed severe threat to human health. And bacterial contamination could significantly menace the wound healing process. Considering the sophisticated wound healing process, novel strategies for skin tissue engineering are focused on the integration of bioactive ingredients, antibacterial agents included, into biomaterials with different morphologies to improve cell behaviors and promote wound healing. However, a comprehensive review on anti-bacterial wound dressing to enhance wound healing has not been reported. In this review, various antibacterial biomaterials as wound dressings will be discussed. Different kinds of antibacterial agents, including antibiotics, nanoparticles (metal and metallic oxides, light-induced antibacterial agents), cationic organic agents, and others, and their recent advances are summarized. Biomaterial selection and fabrication of biomaterials with different structures and forms, including films, hydrogel, electrospun nanofibers, sponge, foam and three-dimension (3D) printed scaffold for skin regeneration, are elaborated discussed. Current challenges and the future perspectives are presented in this multidisciplinary field. We envision that this review will provide a general insight to the elegant design and further refinement of wound dressing.

Abstract
Generating skeletal muscle tissue that mimics the cellular alignment, maturation, and function of native skeletal muscle is an ongoing challenge in disease modeling and regenerative therapies. Skeletal muscle cultures require extracellular guidance and mechanical support to stabilize contractile myofibers. Existing microfabrication-based solutions are limited by complex fabrication steps, low throughput, and challenges in measuring dynamic contractile function. Here, the synthesis and characterization of a new biobased nanohybrid elastomer, which is electrospun into aligned nanofiber sheets to mimic the skeletal muscle extracellular matrix, is presented. The polymer exhibits remarkable hyperelasticity well-matched to that of native skeletal muscle (≈11-50 kPa), with ultimate strain ≈1000%, and elastic modulus ≈25 kPa. Uniaxially aligned nanofibers guide myoblast alignment, enhance sarcomere formation, and promote a ≈32% increase in myotube fusion and ≈50% increase in myofiber maturation. The elastomer nanofibers stabilize optogenetically controlled human induced pluripotent stem cell derived skeletal myofibers. When activated by blue light, the myofiber-nanofiber hybrid constructs maintain a significantly higher (>200%) contraction velocity and specific force (>280%) compared to conventional culture methods. The engineered myofibers exhibit a power density of ≈35 W m-3 . This system is a promising new skeletal muscle tissue model for applications in muscular disease modeling, drug discovery, and muscle regeneration.

Abstract
Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) are an emerging kind of smart materials in which cross-links are reversible upon some stimuli and then provide malleability and a stimuli-responsive ability to the materials. There is a trend to endow CANs with multistimuli-responsive capabilities and rapid stress relaxation to pursue more advanced applications. To integrate these two features into one material, here, dual-dynamic covalent bonds (imines and boronic esters) and aniline trimer (ACAT) were incorporated into the styrene butadiene elastomer as dynamic cross-links. The obtained CANs were demonstrated with rapid stress relaxation and a relatively low activation energy of 36 ± 1 kJ mol-1, resulting from the synergistic effect of dual-dynamic covalent bonds to rearrange the network at a faster rate than for either imines or boronic esters. Because of the dynamic nature of imines or boronic esters, the elastomer can be recycled upon heat. Moreover, the appearance and configuration of the elastomer could also be manipulated by pH and light because of the inclusion of ACAT. All in all, the coupled multistimuli-responsive behavior and rapid stress relaxation in one single elastomer would potentially be applicable for sensors and actuators with good recyclability.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) light-triggered shape memory polymers are expected to have a more promising prospect in biomedical applications compared with traditional heat-triggered shape memory polymers. In this work, a new kind of polyurethane with NIR light-triggered shape memory property was prepared by using polycaprolactone (PCL), polydopamine nanoparticles (PDANPs), hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), and 1,4-butanediol (BDO). The synthesized PCL-PDA polyurethanes, especially when the weight content of PDANPs was 0.17%, showed excellent mechanical properties because the PDANPs were well-dispersed in polyurethanes by the chain extension reaction. Moreover, it also showed an NIR light-triggered rapid shape recovery because of the photothermal effect of polydopamine. The in vitro and in vivo tests showed that the PCL-PDA polyurethane would not inhibit cell proliferation nor induce a strong host inflammatory response, revealing the non-cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility of the material. In addition, the PCL-PDA polyurethane exhibited excellent in vivo NIR light-triggered shape memory performance under an 808 nm laser with low intensity (0.33 W cm-2), which was harmless to the human skin. These results demonstrated the potential of the PCL-PDA polyurethane in biomedical implant applications.

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
Abstract
Graphene is one of most exceptional type of nanocarbon. It is a two-dimensional, one atom thick, nanosheet of sp2 hybridized carbon atoms. Graphene has been employed as nanofiller for shape memory polymeric nanocomposites due to outstanding electrical conductivity, mechanical strength, flexibility, and thermal stability characteristics. Consequently, graphene nanostructures have been reinforced in the polymer matrices to attain superior structural, physical, and shape recovery properties. This review basically addresses the important class of shape memory polymer (SMP)/graphene nanocomposites. This assessment is revolutionary to portray the scientific development and advancement in the field of polymer and graphene-based shape memory nanocomposites. In SMP/graphene nanocomposites, polymer shape has been fixed at above transition temperature and then converted to memorized shape through desired external stimuli. Presence of graphene has caused fast switching of temporary shape to original shape in polymer/graphene nanocomposites. In this regard, better graphene dispersion, interactions between matrix-nanofiller, and well-matched interface formation leading to high performance stimuli-responsive graphene derived nanocomposites, have been described. Incidentally, the fabrication, properties, actuation ways, and relevance of the SMP/graphene nanocomposite have been discussed here. The potential applications of these materials have been perceived for the aerospace/automotive components, self-healing nanocomposites, textiles, civil engineering, and biomaterials.

Abstract
Biodegradable and biocompatible elastomers are highly desirable for many biomedical applications. Here, we report synthesis and characterization of poly(ε-caprolactone)-co-poly(β-methyl-δ-valerolactone)-co-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PβMδVL-PCL) elastomers. These materials have strain to failure values greater than 1000%. Tensile set measurements according to an ASTM standard revealed a 98.24% strain recovery 10 min after the force was removed and complete strain recovery 40 min after the force was removed. The PβMδVL midblock is amorphous with a glass-transition temperature of -51 °C, and PCL end blocks are semicrystalline and have a melting temperature in the range of 52-55 °C. Due to their thermoplastic nature and the low melting temperature, these elastomers can be readily processed by printing, extrusion, or hot-pressing at 60 °C. Lysozyme, a model bioactive agent, was incorporated into a PCL-PβMδVL-PCL elastomer through melt blending in an extruder, and the blend was further hot-pressed into films; both processing steps were performed at 60 °C. No loss of lysozyme bioactivity was observed. PCL-PβMδVL-PCL elastomers are as cytocompatible as tissue culture polystyrene in supporting cell viability and cell growth, and they are degradable in aqueous environments through hydrolysis. The degradable, cytocompatible, elastomeric, and thermoplastic properties of PCL-PβMδVL-PCL polymers collectively render them potentially valuable for many applications in the biomedical field, such as medical devices and tissue engineering scaffolds.

Abstract
Torealize intelligent and personalized medicine, it is a huge challenge to develop a hydrogel dressing that can be used as a sensor to monitor human health in real-time while promoting wound healing. Herein, an injectable, self-healing, and conductive chitosan-based (CPT) hydrogel with pH responsiveness and intrinsic antibacterial properties was fabricated via a Schiff base linkage and a hydrogen bond. Due to the introduction of Schiff base bonds, the injectable CPT hydrogel exhibits various excellent properties, such as pH responsiveness to sol-gel transition, self-healing properties, and broad-spectrum antibacterial properties even without additional antibacterial agents. In vitro experiments verify the excellent biocompatibility of the as-prepared hydrogel. An in vivo experiment in a mouse full-thickness skin-wound model was performed to confirm the outstanding effect on wound healing. Meanwhile, as epidermal sensors, the conductive hydrogel that perceives various human activities in real-time could provide the real-time analysis of the patient's healthcare information. Based on these excellent properties, the CPT hydrogel, as a biological dressing with a sensing function, lays a solid foundation for the further realization of personalized medicine.

Abstract
Biopolymer-based functional hydrogels with excellent mechanical properties are desired, but their fabrication remains a challenge. Learning from the tofu-making process, we developed a freely formable hydrogel with high toughness and stiffness from the hydrogen bond-rich coacervation of tannic acid and gelatin through a simple hot-pressing process that transforms the coacervate particles into a bulk hydrogel. The mechanical properties of the obtained gelatin/tannic acid hydrogel (G/T gel) can be controlled by tuning the weight ratio of tannic acid to gelatin in the gel. The G/T gel with optimum mechanical properties possesses high Young's modulus, fracture strain, and fracture energy of ∼60 MPa, ∼10, and ∼24 kJ m-2, respectively. These properties arise from the phase-separated structure and high concentration of dynamic hydrogen bonds with widely distributed bond strengths. These dynamic hydrogen bonds also enable multifunctional properties of the gel, such as self-recovery, self-healing, rebuildability and shape memory. The combination of excellent mechanical properties, good biocompatibility, and useful functionalities into one hydrogel that comes from renewable sources demonstrates the great potential of G/T gels.

Abstract
The inevitable bleeding during tumor resection greatly increases the risk of tumor recurrence caused by metastasis of cancer cells with blood, and hemostasis and prevention of post-operation tumor recurrence is still a challenge. However, a biomaterials approach for rapid hemostasis during tumor resection and simultaneous prevention of tumor recurrence is rarely reported. Here, zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) nanoparticle-enhanced multinetwork cryogels are proposed which provide an integrated treatment regimen for rapid hemostasis through intraoperative blood trigger shape recovery and enhanced coagulation, and prevention of postoperative cancer recurrence via sonodynamic anticancer in a hepatocellular carcinoma model. A series of antibacterial shape memory multifunctional cryogels are synthesized based on glycidyl methacrylate-functionalized quaternized chitosan (QCSG), dopamine-modified hyaluronic acid (HA-DA), and hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether (HMME)-loaded dopamine-modified ZIF-8 (ZDH). Blood loss in different bleeding models confirms good hemostasis of ZIF-8 loading cryogels. Besides, in vitro tests confirm that QCSG/HA-DA/ZDH (QH/ZDH) cryogels significantly killed cancer cells by generating reactive oxygen species under ultrasound. Finally, significantly reduced tumor recurrence after the resection of ectopic hepatocellular carcinoma further confirms the good effect of QH/ZDH cryogels in preventing recurrence by a coordinated strategy of intraoperative hemostasis and postoperative sonodynamic therapy by pH-responsive HMME release, showing great potential in clinical application.

Abstract
Shape-memory and self-healing polymers have been a hotspot of research in the field of smart polymers in the past decade. Under external stimulation, shape-memory and self-healing polymers can complete programed shape transformation, and they can spontaneously repair damage, thereby extending the life of the materials. In this review, we focus on the progress in polymers with shape-memory and self-healing properties in the past decade. The physical or chemical changes in the materials during the occurrence of shape memory as well as self-healing were analyzed based on the polymer molecular structure. We classified the polymers and discussed the preparation methods for shape-memory and self-healing polymers based on the dynamic interactions which can make the polymers exhibit self-healing properties including dynamic covalent bonds (DA reaction, disulfide exchange reaction, imine exchange reaction, alkoxyamine exchange reaction, and boronic acid ester exchange reaction) and dynamic noncovalent interactions (crystallization, hydrogen bonding, ionic interaction, metal coordination interaction, host-guest interactions, and hydrophobic interactions) and their corresponding triggering conditions. In addition, we discussed the advantages and the mechanism that the shape-memory property promotes self-healing in polymers, as well as the future trends in shape-memory and self-healing polymers.

Abstract
Biodegradable elastomers are important emerging biomaterials for biomedical applications, particularly in the area of soft-tissue engineering in which scaffolds need to match the physicochemical properties of native tissues. Here, we report novel fast photocurable elastomers with readily tunable mechanical properties, surface wettability, and degradability. These elastomers are prepared by a 5-min UV-irradiation of thiol-ene reaction systems of glycerol tripentenoate (GTP; a triene) or the combination of GTP and 4-pentenyl 4-pentenoate (PP; a diene) with a carefully chosen series of di- or tri-thiols. In the subsequent application study, these elastomers were found to be capable of overcoming delamination of myotubes, a technical bottleneck limiting the in vitro growth of mature functional myofibers. The glycerol-based elastomers supported the proliferation of mouse and human myoblasts, as well as myogenic differentiation into contractile myotubes. More notably, while beating mouse myotubes detached from conventional tissue culture plates, they remain adherent on the elastomer surface. The results suggest that these elastomers as novel biomaterials may provide a promising platform for engineering functional soft tissues with potential applications in regenerative medicine or pharmacological testing.

Abstract
In order to improve the processability of conductive polyurethane (CPU) containing aniline oligomers, a new CPU containing aniline trimer (AT) and l-lysine (PUAT) are designed and synthesized. Further, the 3D porous PUAT membranes have been prepared by a simple gel cooperated with freeze-drying method. Chemical testings and conductive properties testify a self- doping model of PUAT based on the rich electronic l-lysine and electroaffinity AT moities. The self-doping behavior further endows the PUAT copolymers specific characteristics such as high electrical conductivity and the formation of the polaron lattice like-structure in good solvent dimethyl sulfoxide. The combination of organogel and freeze-drying could prevent the collapse of pore structure when the copolymers are molded as membranes. The synergistic effect of l-lysine and AT components has a strong influence on the dissolution, degradation, thermal stability, and mechanical properties of PUAT. The excellent properties of PUAT would broad the application of conductive polymers in biomedicine field.

Abstract
Magnesium and its alloys have become potential implant materials in the future because of light weight, mechanical properties similar to natural bone, good biocompatibility, and degradability in physiological environment. However, due to the rapid corrosion and degradation of magnesium alloys in vivo, especially in the environment containing chloride ions, the application of magnesium alloys as implant materials has been limited. Therefore, improving the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy and ensuring good biocompatibility is the main focus of the current research. In this study, hydroxyapatite coating was prepared on magnesium alloy surface using carboxymethyl cellulose-dopamine hydrogel as inducer to improve corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Surface characterization techniques (scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy- and X-ray diffraction) confirmed the formation of hydroxyapatite on the surface of AZ31 alloy. Corrosion resistance tests have proved the protective effect of Carboxymethyl cellulose-Dopamine/hydroxyapatite (CMC-DA/HA) coating on the surface of AZ31 alloy. According to MC3T3-E1 cell viability and Live/Dead staining, the coating also showed good biocompatibility. The results will provide new ideas for the biological application of magnesium alloys.

Abstract
Polyurethanes (PUs) are a major family of polymers displaying a wide spectrum of physico-chemical, mechanical and structural properties for a large range of fields. They have shown suitable for biomedical applications and are used in this domain since decades. The current variety of biomass available has extended the diversity of starting materials for the elaboration of new biobased macromolecular architectures, allowing the development of biobased PUs with advanced properties such as controlled biotic and abiotic degradation. In this frame, new tunable biomedical devices have been successfully designed. PU structures with precise tissue biomimicking can be obtained and are adequate for adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of many cell's types. Moreover, new smart shape-memory PUs with adjustable shape-recovery properties have demonstrated promising results for biomedical applications such as wound healing. The fossil-based starting materials substitution for biomedical implants is slowly improving, nonetheless better renewable contents need to be achieved for most PUs to obtain biobased certifications. After a presentation of some PU generalities and an understanding of a biomaterial structure-biocompatibility relationship, recent developments of biobased PUs for non-implantable devices as well as short- and long-term implants are described in detail in this review and compared to more conventional PU structures.

Abstract
Endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) are well-established therapeutics for gastrointestinal neoplasias, but complications after EMR/ESD, including bleeding and perforation, result in additional treatment morbidity and even threaten the lives of patients. Thus, designing biomaterials to treat gastric bleeding and wound healing after endoscopic treatment is highly desired and remains a challenge. Herein, a series of injectable pH-responsive self-healing adhesive hydrogels based on acryloyl-6-aminocaproic acid (AA) and AA-g-N-hydroxysuccinimide (AA-NHS) were developed, and their great potential as endoscopic sprayable bioadhesive materials to efficiently stop hemorrhage and promote the wound healing process was further demonstrated in a swine gastric hemorrhage/wound model. The hydrogels showed a suitable gelation time, an autonomous and efficient self-healing capacity, hemostatic properties, and good biocompatibility. With the introduction of AA-NHS as a micro-cross-linker, the hydrogels exhibited enhanced adhesive strength. A swine gastric hemorrhage in vivo model demonstrated that the hydrogels showed good hemostatic performance by stopping acute arterial bleeding and preventing delayed bleeding. A gastric wound model indicated that the hydrogels showed excellent treatment effects with significantly enhanced wound healing with type I collagen deposition, α-SMA expression, and blood vessel formation. These injectable self-healing adhesive hydrogels exhibited great potential to treat gastric wounds after endoscopic treatment.
