Advancements in 3D-printable polysaccharides, proteins, and synthetic polymers for wound dressing and skin scaffolding - A review. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 266:131207. [PMID: 38552687 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/15/2024]
Abstract
This review investigates the most recent advances in personalized 3D-printed wound dressings and skin scaffolding. Skin is the largest and most vulnerable organ in the human body. The human body has natural mechanisms to restore damaged skin through several overlapping stages. However, the natural wound healing process can be rendered insufficient due to severe wounds or disturbances in the healing process. Wound dressings are crucial in providing a protective barrier against the external environment, accelerating healing. Although used for many years, conventional wound dressings are neither tailored to individual circumstances nor specific to wound conditions. To address the shortcomings of conventional dressings, skin scaffolding can be used for skin regeneration and wound healing. This review thoroughly investigates polysaccharides (e.g., chitosan, Hyaluronic acid (HA)), proteins (e.g., collagen, silk), synthetic polymers (e.g., Polycaprolactone (PCL), Poly lactide-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), Polylactic acid (PLA)), as well as nanocomposites (e.g., silver nano particles and clay materials) for wound healing applications and successfully 3D printed wound dressings. It discusses the importance of combining various biomaterials to enhance their beneficial characteristics and mitigate their drawbacks. Different 3D printing fabrication techniques used in developing personalized wound dressings are reviewed, highlighting the advantages and limitations of each method. This paper emphasizes the exceptional versatility of 3D printing techniques in advancing wound healing treatments. Finally, the review provides recommendations and future directions for further research in wound dressings.

Abstract
Even with the current advancements in wound management, addressing most skin injuries and wounds continues to pose a significant obstacle for the healthcare industry. As a result, researchers are now focusing on creating innovative materials utilizing cellulose and its derivatives. Cellulose, the most abundant biopolymer in nature, has unique properties that make it a promising material for wound healing, such as biocompatibility, tunable physiochemical characteristics, accessibility, and low cost. 3D bioprinting technology has enabled the production of cellulose-based wound dressings with complex structures that mimic the extracellular matrix. The inclusion of bioactive molecules such as growth factors offers the ability to aid in promoting wound healing, while cellulose creates an ideal environment for controlled release of these biomolecules and moisture retention. The use of 3D bioprinted cellulose-based wound dressings has potential benefits for managing chronic wounds, burns, and painful wounds by promoting wound healing and reducing the risk of infection. This review provides an up-to-date summary of cellulose-based dressings manufactured by 3D bioprinting techniques by looking into wound healing biology, biofabrication methods, cellulose derivatives, and the existing cellulose bioinks targeted toward wound healing.

Abstract
Chronic wound healing remains a substantial clinical challenge. Current treatments are often either prohibitively expensive or insufficient in meeting the various requirements needed for effective diabetic wound healing. A 4D printing multifunctional hydrogel dressing is reported here, which aligns perfectly with wounds owning various complex shapes and depths, promoting both wound closure and tissue regeneration. The hydrogel is prepared via digital light process (DLP) 3D printing of the mixture containing N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm), curcumin-loaded Pluronic F127 micelles (Cur-PF127), and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate-dopamine (PEGDA575-Do), a degradable crosslinker. The use of PEGDA575-Do ensures tissue adhesion and degradability, and cur-PF127 serves as an antibacterial agent. Moreover, the thermo-responsive mainchains (i.e., polymerized NIPAm) enables the activation of wound contraction by body temperature. The features of the prepared hydrogel, including robust tissue adhesion, temperature-responsive contraction, effective hemostasis, spectral antibacterial, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and inflammation regulation, contribute to accelerating diabetic wound healing in Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-infected full-thickness skin defect diabetic rat models and liver injury mouse models, highlighting the potential of this customizable, mechanobiological, and inflammation-regulatory dressing to expedite wound healing in various clinical settings.

Abstract
Wound healing is a physiological process occurring after the onset of a skin lesion aiming to reconstruct the dermal barrier between the external environment and the body. Depending on the nature and duration of the healing process, wounds are classified as acute (e.g., trauma, surgical wounds) and chronic (e.g., diabetic ulcers) wounds. The latter take several months to heal or do not heal (non-healing chronic wounds), are usually prone to microbial infection and represent an important source of morbidity since they affect millions of people worldwide. Typical wound treatments comprise surgical (e.g., debridement, skin grafts/flaps) and non-surgical (e.g., topical formulations, wound dressings) methods. Modern experimental approaches include among others three dimensional (3D)-(bio)printed wound dressings. The present paper reviews recently developed 3D (bio)printed hydrogels for wound healing applications, especially focusing on the results of their in vitro and in vivo assessment. The advanced hydrogel constructs were printed using different types of bioinks (e.g., natural and/or synthetic polymers and their mixtures with biological materials) and printing methods (e.g., extrusion, digital light processing, coaxial microfluidic bioprinting, etc.) and incorporated various bioactive agents (e.g., growth factors, antibiotics, antibacterial agents, nanoparticles, etc.) and/or cells (e.g., dermal fibroblasts, keratinocytes, mesenchymal stem cells, endothelial cells, etc.).

Abstract
Wound infection control is a primary clinical concern nowadays. Various innovative solutions have been developed to fabricate adaptable wound dressings with better control of infected wound healing. This work presents a facile approach by leveraging 3D printing to fabricate chitosan/glycerol into composite dressings with tailored micropatterns to improve wound healing. The bioinks of chitosan/glycerol were investigated as suitable for 3D printing. Then, three tailored micropatterns (i.e., sheet, strip, and mesh) with precise geometry control were 3D printed onto a commercial dressing to fabricate the micropatterned composite dressings. In vitro and in vivo studies indicate that these micropatterned dressings could speed up wound healing due to their increased water uptake capacity (up to ca. 16-fold@2 min), benign cytotoxicity (76.7 % to 90.4 % of cell viability), minor hemolytic activity (<1 %), faster blood coagulation effects (within 76.3 s), low blood coagulation index (14.5 % to 18.7 % @ 6 min), enhanced antibacterial properties (81.0 % to 86.1 % against S. aureus, 83.7 % to 96.5 % against E. coli), and effective inhibition of wound inflammation factors of IL-1β and TNF-α. Such tailored micropatterned composite dressing is facile to obtain, highly reproducible, and cost-efficient, making it a promising implication for improved and personalized contaminated wound healing.

Abstract
Wounds are a stern healthcare concern in the growth of chronic disease conditions as they can increase healthcare costs and complicate internal and external health. Advancements in the current and newer management systems for wound healing should be in place to counter the health burden of wounds. Researchers discovered that two-dimensional (2D) media lacks appropriate real-life detection of cellular matter as these have highly complicated and diverse structures, compositions, and interactions. Hence, innovation towards three-dimensional (3D) media is called to conquer the high-level assessment and characterization in vivo using new technologies. The application of modern wound dressings prepared from a degenerated natural tissue, biodegradable biopolymer, synthetic polymer, or a composite of these materials in wound healing is currently an area of innovation in tissue regeneration medicine. Moreover, the integration of 3D printing and nanomaterial science is a promising approach with the potential for individualized, flexible, and precise technology for wound care approaches. This review encompasses the outcomes of various investigations on recent advances in 3D-printed drug-loaded natural, synthetic, and composite nanomaterials for wound healing. The challenges associated with their fabrication, clinical application progress, and future perspectives are also addressed.

Abstract
Chronic wounds, especially diabetic ulcers, pose a significant challenge in regenerative medicine. Cellulose derivatives offer remarkable wound management properties, such as effective absorption and retention of wound exudates, maintaining an optimal moisture environment crucial for successful chronic wound regeneration. However, conventional dressings have limited efficacy in managing and healing these types of skin lesions, driving scientists to explore innovative approaches. The emergence of 3D printing has enabled personalized dressings that meet individual patient needs, improving the healing process and patient comfort. Cellulose derivatives meet the demanding requirements for biocompatibility, printability, and biofabrication necessary for 3D printing of biologically active scaffolds. However, the potential applications of nanocellulose and cellulose derivative-based inks for wound regeneration remain largely unexplored. Thus, this review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in cellulose-based inks for 3D printing of personalized wound dressings. The composition and biofabrication approaches of cellulose-based wound dressings are thoroughly discussed, including the functionalization with bioactive molecules and antibiotics for improved wound regeneration. Similarly, the in vitro and in vivo performance of these dressings is extensively examined. In summary, this review aims to highlight the exceptional advantages and diverse applications of 3D printed cellulose-based dressings in personalized wound care.

Abstract
Exceptionally fast temperature-responsive, mechanically strong, tough and extensible monolithic non-porous hydrogels were synthesized. They are based on divinyl-crosslinked poly(N-isopropyl-acrylamide) (PNIPAm) intercalated by hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). HPMC was largely extracted after polymerization, thus yielding a 'template-modified' PNIPAm network intercalated with a modest residue of HPMC. High contents of divinyl crosslinker and of HPMC caused a varying degree of micro-phase-separation in some products, but without detriment to mechanical or tensile properties. After extraction of non-fixed HPMC, the micro-phase-separated products combine superior mechanical properties with ultra-fast T-response (in 30 s). Their PNIPAm network was highly regular and extensible (intercalation effect), toughened by hydrogen bonds to HPMC, and interpenetrated by a network of nano-channels (left behind by extracted HPMC), which ensured the water transport rates needed for ultra-fast deswelling. Moreover, the T-response rate could be widely tuned by the degree of heterogeneity during synthesis. The fastest-responsive among our hydrogels could be of practical interest as soft actuators with very good mechanical properties (soft robotics), while the slower ones offer applications in drug delivery systems (as tested on the example of Theophylline), or in related biomedical engineering applications.

Abstract
Infections caused by pathogens can be a significant challenge in wound healing, particularly when antimicrobial resistance is a factor. This can pose a serious threat to human health and well-being. In this scenario, it is imperative to explore novel antimicrobial agents to fight against multi-drug resistant (MDR) pathogenic bacteria. This study employed rational design strategies, including truncation, amino acid replacement, and heterozygosity, to obtain seven α-helical, cationic, and engineered peptides based on the original template of Abhisin. Among the analogs of Abhisin, AB7 displayed broad-spectrum and potent antimicrobial activity, superior targeting of membranes and DNA, and the ability to disrupt biofilms and anti-endotoxins in vitro. Additionally, we evaluated the anti-infection ability of AB7 using a murine skin wound model infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and found that AB7 displayed negligible toxicity both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Wounds are skin tissue damage due to trauma. Many factors inhibit the wound healing phase (hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and alteration), such as oxygenation, contamination/infection, age, effects of injury, sex hormones, stress, diabetes, obesity, drugs, alcoholism, smoking, nutrition, hemostasis, debridement, and closing time. Cellulose is the most abundant biopolymer in nature which is promising as the main matrix of wound dressings because of its good structure and mechanical stability, moisturizes the area around the wound, absorbs excess exudate, can form elastic gels with the characteristics of bio-responsiveness, biocompatibility, low toxicity, biodegradability, and structural similarity with the extracellular matrix (ECM). The addition of active ingredients as a model drug helps accelerate wound healing through antimicrobial and antioxidant mechanisms. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology can print cellulose as a bioink to produce wound dressings with complex structures mimicking ECM. The 3D printed cellulose-based wound dressings are a promising application in modern wound care. This article reviews the use of 3D printed cellulose as an ideal wound dressing and their properties, including mechanical properties, permeability aspect, absorption ability, ability to retain and provide moisture, biodegradation, antimicrobial property, and biocompatibility. The applications of 3D printed cellulose in the management of chronic wounds, burns, and painful wounds are also discussed.

Abstract
Full-thickness skin wounds are have continued to be reconstructive challenges in dermal and skin appendage regeneration, and skin substitutes are promising tools for addressing these reconstructive procedures. Herein, the one-step fabrication of a cell sheet integrated with a biomimetic hydrogel as a tissue engineered skin for skin wound healing generated in one step is introduced. Briefly, cell sheets with rich extracellular matrix, high cell density, and good cell connections were integrated with biomimetic hydrogel to fabricate gel + human skin fibroblasts (HSFs) sheets and gel + human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) sheets in one step for assembly as a cell sheet-laden hydrogel (CSH). The designed biomimetic hydrogel formed with UV crosslinking and ionic crosslinking exhibited unique properties due to the photo-generated aldehyde groups, which were suitable for integrating into the cell sheet, and ionic crosslinking reduced the adhesive force toward the substrate. These properties allowed the gel + cell sheet film to be easily released from the substrate. The cells in the harvested cell sheet maintained excellent viability, proliferation, and definite migration abilities inside the hydrogel. Moreover, the CSH was implanted into a full-thickness skin defects to construct a required dermal matrix and cell microenvironment. The wound closure rate reached 60.00 ± 6.26% on the 2nd day, accelerating mature granulation and dermis formation with skin appendages after 14 days. This project can provide distinct guidance and strategies for the complete repair and regeneration of full-thickness skin defects, and provides a material with great potential for tissue regeneration in clinical applications.

Abstract
Scar formation is a common physiological process that occurs after injury, but in some cases, pathological scars can develop, leading to serious physiological and psychological effects. Unfortunately, there are currently no effective means to intervene in scar formation, and the structural features of scars and their unclear mechanisms make prevention and treatment even more challenging. However, the emergence of nanotechnology in drug delivery systems offers a promising avenue for the prevention and treatment of scars. Nanomaterials possess unique properties that make them well suited for addressing issues related to transdermal drug delivery, drug solubility, and controlled release. Herein, we summarize the recent progress made in the use of nanotechnology for the prevention and treatment of scars. We examine the mechanisms involved and the advantages offered by various types of nanomaterials. We also highlight the outstanding challenges and questions that need to be addressed to maximize the potential of nanotechnology in scar intervention. Overall, with further development, nanotechnology could significantly improve the prevention and treatment of pathological scars, providing a brighter outlook for those affected by this condition.

Abstract
Porous structures with sizes between the submicrometer and nanometer scales can be produced using efficient and adaptable electrospinning technology. However, to approximate desirable structures, the construction lacks mechanical sophistication and conformance and requires three-dimensional solitary or multifunctional structures. The diversity of high-performance polymers and blends has enabled the creation of several porous structural conformations for applications in advanced materials science, particularly in biomedicine. Two promising technologies can be combined, such as electrospinning with 3D printing or additive manufacturing, thereby providing a straightforward yet flexible technique for digitally controlled shape-morphing fabrication. The hierarchical integration of configurations is used to imprint complex shapes and patterns onto mesostructured, stimulus-responsive electrospun fabrics. This technique controls the internal stresses caused by the swelling/contraction mismatch in the in-plane and interlayer regions, which, in turn, controls the morphological characteristics of the electrospun membranes. Major innovations in 3D printing, along with additive manufacturing, have led to the production of materials and scaffold systems for tactile and wearable sensors, filtration structures, sensors for structural health monitoring, tissue engineering, biomedical scaffolds, and optical patterning. This review discusses the synergy between 3D printing and electrospinning as a constituent of specific microfabrication methods for quick structural prototypes that are expected to advance into next-generation constructs. Furthermore, individual techniques, their process parameters, and how the fabricated novel structures are applied holistically in the biomedical field have never been discussed in the literature. In summary, this review offers novel insights into the use of electrospinning and 3D printing as well as their integration for cutting-edge applications in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Significance: Nowadays, the wound dressing is no longer limited to its primary wound protection ability. Hydrogel, sponge-like material, three dimensional-printed mesh, and nanofiber-based dressings with incorporation of functional components, such as nanomaterials, growth factors, enzymes, antimicrobial agents, and electronics, are able to not only prevent/treat infection but also accelerate the wound healing and monitor the wound-healing status. Recent Advances: The advances in nanotechnologies and materials science have paved the way to incorporate various functional components into the dressings, which can facilitate wound healing and monitor different biological parameters in the wound area. In this review, we mainly focus on the discussion of recently developed functional wound dressings. Critical Issues: Understanding the structure and composition of wound dressings is important to correlate their functions with the outcome of wound management. Future Directions: "All-in-one" dressings that integrate multiple functions (e.g., monitoring, antimicrobial, pain relief, immune modulation, and regeneration) could be effective for wound repair and regeneration.

Abstract
The strategies for eliminating excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) or suppressing inflammatory responses on the wound bed have proven effective for diabetic wound healing. In this work, a zinc-based nanoscale metal-organic framework (NMOF) functions as a carrier to deliver natural product berberine (BR) to form BR@Zn-BTB nanoparticles, which was, in turn, further encapsulated by hydrogel with ROS scavenging ability to yield a composite system of BR@Zn-BTB/Gel (denoted as BZ-Gel). The results show that BZ-Gel exhibited the controlled release of Zn2+ and BR in simulated physiological media to efficiently eliminated ROS and inhibited inflammation and resulted in a promising antibacterial effect. In vivo experiments further proved that BZ-Gel significantly inhibited the inflammatory response and enhanced collagen deposition, as well as to re-epithelialize the skin wound to ultimately promote wound healing in diabetic mice. Our results indicate that the ROS-responsive hydrogel coupled with BR@Zn-BTB synergistically promotes diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
The regeneration of biological tissues in medicine is challenging, and 3D bioprinting offers an innovative way to create functional multicellular tissues. One common way in bioprinting is bioink, which is one type of the cell-loaded hydrogel. For clinical application, however, the bioprinting still suffers from satisfactory performance, e.g., in vascularization, effective antibacterial, immunomodulation, and regulation of collagen deposition. Many studies incorporated different bioactive materials into the 3D-printed scaffolds to optimize the bioprinting. Here, we reviewed a variety of additives added to the 3D bioprinting hydrogel. The underlying mechanisms and methodology for biological regeneration are important and will provide a useful basis for future research.

Abstract
As the global number of chronic wound patients rises, the financial burden and social pressure on patients increase daily. Stem cells have emerged as promising tissue engineering seed cells due to their enriched sources, multidirectional differentiation ability, and high proliferation rate. However, delivering them in vitro for the treatment of skin injury is still challenging. In addition, bacteria from the wound site and the environment can significantly impact wound healing. In the last decade, 3D bioprinting has dramatically enriched cell delivery systems. The produced scaffolds by this technique can be precisely localized within cells and perform antibacterial actions. In this review, we summarized the 3D bioprinting-based external delivery of stem cells and their antibiosis to improve wound healing.

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.

Physicochemical, Morphological, and Cytotoxic Properties of Brazilian Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus) Starch Scaffold Loaded with Silver Nanoparticles. J Funct Biomater 2023; 14:jfb14030143. [PMID: 36976067 PMCID: PMC10056764 DOI: 10.3390/jfb14030143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2022] [Revised: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 03/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Due to the physical, thermal, and biological properties of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), as well as the biocompatibility and environmental safety of the naturally occurring polymeric component, polysaccharide-based composites containing AgNPs are a promising choice for the development of biomaterials. Starch is a low-cost, non-toxic, biocompatible, and tissue-healing natural polymer. The application of starch in various forms and its combination with metallic nanoparticles have contributed to the advancement of biomaterials. Few investigations into jackfruit starch with silver nanoparticle biocomposites exist. This research intends to explore the physicochemical, morphological, and cytotoxic properties of a Brazilian jackfruit starch-based scaffold loaded with AgNPs. The AgNPs were synthesized by chemical reduction and the scaffold was produced by gelatinization. X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy-dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were used to study the scaffold. The findings supported the development of stable, monodispersed, and triangular AgNPs. XRD and EDS analyses demonstrated the incorporation of silver nanoparticles. AgNPs could alter the scaffold’s crystallinity, roughness, and thermal stability without affecting its chemistry or physics. Triangular anisotropic AgNPs exhibited no toxicity against L929 cells at concentrations ranging from 6.25 × 10−5 to 1 × 10−3 mol·L−1, implying that the scaffolds might have had no adverse effects on the cells. The scaffolds prepared with jackfruit starch showed greater crystallinity and thermal stability, and absence of toxicity after the incorporation of triangular AgNPs. These findings indicate that jackfruit is a promising starch source for developing biomaterials.

Abstract
438Severe skin injuries can cause serious problems, which could affect the patient's normal life, if not dealt properly in a timely and effective manner. It is an urgent requirement to develop personalized wound dressings with excellent antibacterial activity and biocompatibility to match the shape of the wound to facilitate clinical application. In this study, a bioink (GAQ) based on gelatin (Gel)/sodium alginate (SA)/ quaternized chitosan (QCS) was prepared, and GAQ hydrogel dressing grafting with dopamine (GADQ) was fabricated by an extrusion three-dimensional (3D) printing technology. QCS was synthesized by modifying quaternary ammonium group on chitosan, and its structure was successfully characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Our results showed that the GADQ hydrogel dressing that was double-crosslinked by EDC/ NHS and Ca2+ had good tensile strength, considerable swelling ratio, and effective antioxidation properties. It also showed that GADQ1.5% had 93.17% and 91.06% antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, respectively. Furthermore, the relative survival ratios of fibroblast cells seeded on these hydrogels exceeded 350% after cultured for 7 days, which proved the biocompatibility of these hydrogels. Overall, this advanced 3D-printed GADQ1.5% hydrogels with effective antioxidation, excellent antibacterial activity and good biocompatibility had a considerable application potential for wound healing.

J Biomed Mater Res A 2023; 111:132-151. [PMID: 36205298 DOI: 10.1002/jbm.a.37453] [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: 06/16/2022] [Revised: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 09/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
Previously, we demonstrated that magnesium oxide (MgO)-incorporated electrospun membranes show powerful antibacterial activity and promote wound healing, but the underlying mechanisms have not been entirely understood. Herein, we investigated the relationship between structure and function of MgO-incorporated membranes and interrogated critical bioactive cues that contribute to accelerated wound healing and functional restoration. Our results show that MgO-incorporated membranes exhibit good flexibility and improved water vapor transmission rates (WVTRs) and sustained Mg2+ release in a simulated model of wounds. MgO-incorporated membranes modulate macrophage phenotype to downregulate inflammatory response, contributing to alleviated inflammation and creating a favorable microenvironment for wound healing. Specifically, MgO-incorporated membranes stimulate macrophages to shift to a pro-healing M2 phenotype and upregulate pro-healing cytokine of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) and downregulate pro-inflammatory cytokines under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge conditions. Together with increased TGF-β1 by macrophages, MgO-incorporated membranes significantly boost the proliferation of fibroblasts and upregulate collagen production, thus driving granulation tissue formation and wound closure. MgO-incorporated membranes promote angiogenesis by promoting tube formation and upregulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production of endothelial cells. Rapid epithelialization of regenerated skin tissue is attributed to the balanced phenotype of keratinocytes between proliferative and terminally differentiated populations. In addition to coordinating keratinocyte phenotype, MgO-incorporated membranes reduce the expression of inflammatory cytokine interleukin 1-alpha (IL-1α) therefore promoting hair follicle regeneration. These data provide mechanisms of MgO-incorporated membranes that inhibit bacterial infection, alleviate inflammation, facilitate extracellular matrix production and epithelialization, and potentiate hair follicle regeneration.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing has been used to fabricate biomaterial scaffolds with finely controlled physical architecture and user-defined patterning of biological ligands. Excitingly, recent advances in bioprinting have enabled the development of highly biomimetic hydrogels for the treatment of fibrosis and the promotion of wound healing. Bioprinted hydrogels offer more accurate spatial recapitulation of the biochemical and biophysical cues that inhibit fibrosis and promote tissue regeneration, augmenting the therapeutic potential of hydrogel-based therapies. Accordingly, bioprinted hydrogels have been used for the treatment of fibrosis in a diverse array of tissues and organs, including the skin, heart, and endometrium. Furthermore, bioprinted hydrogels have been utilized for the healing of both acute and chronic wounds, which present unique biological microenvironments. In addition to these therapeutic applications, hydrogel bioprinting has been used to generate in vitro models of fibrosis in a variety of soft tissues such as the skin, heart, and liver, enabling high-throughput drug screening and tissue analysis at relatively low cost. As biological research begins to uncover the spatial biological features that underlie fibrosis and wound healing, bioprinting offers a powerful toolkit to recapitulate spatially defined pro-regenerative and anti-fibrotic cues for an array of translational applications.

Abstract
Chronic wounds have become one of the most important issues for healthcare systems and are a leading cause of death worldwide. Wound dressings are necessary to facilitate wound treatment. Engineering wound dressings may substantially reduce healing time, reduce the risk of recurrent infections, and reduce the disability and costs associated. In the path of engineering of an ideal wound dressing, hydrogels have played a leading role. Hydrogels are 3D hydrophilic polymeric structures that can provide a protective barrier, mimic the native extracellular matrix (ECM), and provide a humid environment. Due to their advantages, hydrogels (with different architectural, physical, mechanical, and biological properties) have been extensively explored as wound dressing platforms. Here we describe recent studies on hydrogels for wound healing applications with a strong focus on the interplay between the fabrication method used and the architectural, mechanical, and biological performance achieved. Moreover, we review different categories of additives which can enhance wound regeneration using 3D hydrogel dressings. Hydrogel engineering for wound healing applications promises the generation of smart solutions to solve this pressing problem, enabling key functionalities such as bacterial growth inhibition, enhanced re-epithelialization, vascularization, improved recovery of the tissue functionality, and overall, accelerated and effective wound healing.

We highlight the three stages in the evolution of the bioactive inorganic biomaterials applied to wound management, including single inorganic materials, inorganic/organic composite materials, and inorganic particles-based cell-encapsulated living systems. At every stage, the primary types of bioactive inorganic biomaterials are described, followed by citation of the related representative studies completed in recent years. Then we offer a brief exposition of typical approaches to construct the composite material systems with incorporation of inorganic components for wound healing. Finally, the conclusions and future directions are suggested for the development of novel bioactive inorganic particles-based biomaterials in the field of skin regeneration.

Abstract
Current wound dressing based on hydrogel offers a promising way to accelerate the healing process, yet great challenges remain in the development of a highly integrated and efficient platform with the combination of therapeutic biomolecules and stem cells. Herein, a natural hydrogel wound dressing from egg white can be conveniently obtained by feasible physical crosslinking, the prepared hydrogel dressing features interconnected microporous channels, direct 3D printing, cytocompatibility, and intrinsic biomolecules to advance cell behavior. The 3D printed egg white hydrogels promote the adhesion and proliferation of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) without obvious cytotoxicity. In addition, this integrated hydrogel platform accompanied with adipose-derived stem cells accelerates wound healing through the enhancement of fibroblast proliferation, angiogenesis, and collagen rearrangement in the wound bed. The egg white hydrogel provides an effective wound caring product possessing low cost, easy availability along with ready manufacturing, and advanced therapeutic effect, which may be extended for the management of chronic or other complicated wounds.

Abstract
Currently, the clinic's treatment of acute/chronic wounds is still unsatisfactory due to the lack of functional and appropriate wound dressings. Intelligent and multifunctional dressings are considered the most advanced wound treatment modalities. It is essential to design and develop wound dressings with required functions according to the wound microenvironment in the clinical treatment. This work summarizes microenvironment characteristics of various common wounds, such as acute wound, diabetic wound, burns wound, scalded wound, mucosal wound, and ulcers wound. Furthermore, the factors of transformation from acute wounds to chronic wounds were analyzed. Then we focused on summarizing how researchers fully and thoroughly combined the complex microenvironment with modern advanced technology to ensure the usability and value of the dressing, such as photothermal-sensitive dressings, microenvironment dressing (pH-sensitive dressings, ROS-sensitive dressings, and osmotic pressure dressings), hemostatic dressing, guiding tissue regeneration dressing, microneedle dressings, and 3D/4D printing dressings. Finally, the revolutionary development of wound dressings and how to transform the existing advanced functional dressings into clinical needs as soon as possible have carried out a reasonable and meaningful outlook.

Abstract
In tissue engineering, three-dimensional (3D) printing is an emerging approach to producing functioning tissue constructs to repair wounds and repair or replace sick tissue/organs. It allows for precise control of materials and other components in the tissue constructs in an automated way, potentially permitting great throughput production. An ink made using one or multiple biomaterials can be 3D printed into tissue constructs by the printing process; though promising in tissue engineering, the printed constructs have also been reported to have the ability to lead to the emergence of unforeseen illnesses and failure due to biomaterial-related infections. Numerous approaches and/or strategies have been developed to combat biomaterial-related infections, and among them, natural biomaterials, surface treatment of biomaterials, and incorporating inorganic agents have been widely employed for the construct fabrication by 3D printing. Despite various attempts to synthesize and/or optimize the inks for 3D printing, the incidence of infection in the implanted tissue constructs remains one of the most significant issues. For the first time, here we present an overview of inks with antibacterial properties for 3D printing, focusing on the principles and strategies to accomplish biomaterials with anti-infective properties, and the synthesis of metallic ion-containing ink, chitosan-containing inks, and other antibacterial inks. Related discussions regarding the mechanics of biofilm formation and antibacterial performance are also presented, along with future perspectives of the importance of developing printable inks.

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
Bacterial infections are the major challenges of wound treatment in current clinical applications. In this study, Three-dimensional (3D) antibacterial wound dressing has been fabricated via introducing N-halamine/TiO2 to gelatin methacrylate and xanthan gum. The prepared 3D printed dressings showed ideal swelling ratio and excellent water uptake efficiency. TiO2 nanoparticles were introduced by in-situ to improve the ultraviolet stability of N-halamines. The 3D printed GX2-TiO2-PSPH-Cl prepared dressings containing titanium dioxide retained 0.19% active chlorine after ultraviolet irradiation for 20 min, which was much higher than that of N-halamine dressings without the addition of TiO2. The 3D printed dressings showed good antibacterial activity, and 100% of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Staphylococcus aureus were inactivated after 60 min of contact. Furthermore, the biofilm test indicated that the 3D antibacterial dressings were able to inhibit the formation of bacterial biofilm. The 3D printed dressings possess outstanding biocompatibility. Moreover, in vivo data demonstrated that the 3D printed dressings could significantly accelerate wound healing in a mouse model, indicating that the developed 3D printed dressings are ideal candidates for wound treatment.

Abstract
Presently, notwithstanding the progress regarding wound-healing management, the treatment of the majority of skin lesions still represents a serious challenge for biomedical and pharmaceutical industries. Thus, the attention of the researchers has turned to the development of novel materials based on cellulose derivatives. Cellulose derivatives are semi-synthetic biopolymers, which exhibit high solubility in water and represent an advantageous alternative to water-insoluble cellulose. These biopolymers possess excellent properties, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, sustainability, non-toxicity, non-immunogenicity, thermo-gelling behavior, mechanical strength, abundance, low costs, antibacterial effect, and high hydrophilicity. They have an efficient ability to absorb and retain a large quantity of wound exudates in the interstitial sites of their networks and can maintain optimal local moisture. Cellulose derivatives also represent a proper scaffold to incorporate various bioactive agents with beneficial therapeutic effects on skin tissue restoration. Due to these suitable and versatile characteristics, cellulose derivatives are attractive and captivating materials for wound-healing applications. This review presents an extensive overview of recent research regarding promising cellulose derivatives-based materials for the development of multiple biomedical and pharmaceutical applications, such as wound dressings, drug delivery devices, and tissue engineering.

Abstract
3D printing has been widely used for the personalization of therapies and on-demand production of complex pharmaceutical forms. Recently, 3D printing has been explored as a tool for the development of topical dosage forms and wound dressings. Thus, this review aims to present advances related to the use of 3D printing for the development of pharmaceutical and biomedical products for topical skin applications, covering plain dressing and products for the delivery of active ingredients to the skin. Based on the data acquired, the important growth in the number of publications over the last years confirms its interest. The semisolid extrusion technique has been the most reported one, probably because it allows the use of a broad range of polymers, creating the most diverse therapeutic approaches. 3D printing has been an excellent field for customizing dressings, according to individual needs. Studies discussed here imply the use of metals, nanoparticles, drugs, natural compounds and proteins and peptides for the treatment of wound healing, acne, pain relief, and anti-wrinkle, among others. The confluence of 3D printing and topical applications has undeniable advantages, and we would like to encourage the research groups to explore this field to improve the patient's life quality, adherence and treatment efficacy.

Construction of a photothermal hydrogel platform with two-dimensional PEG@zirconium-ferrocene MOF nanozymes for rapid tissue repair of bacteria-infected wounds. Acta Biomater 2021; 135:342-355.

Abstract
Because of increasing antibiotic resistance, careful construction of an efficient phototherm-nanozyme-hydrogel synergistic antibacterial platform is imperative for the treatment of bacteria-infected wounds. In this study, a carrageenan-based hydrogel embedded with polyethylene glycol dicarboxylic acid (COOH-PEG-COOH)-functionalized zirconium-ferrocene metal-organic frames nanosheets (PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel) was successfully constructed through COOH-PEG-COOH modification and physical assembly. The PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel could capture Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) bacteria through reactive oxygen species (ROS) destruction and kill some bacteria by disintegration of H2O2 into toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH). Significantly, by introducing the photothermal performance of the PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel, the catalytic activity of the target material could be improved to achieve a synergistic sterilization effect. The wound infection model experiment confirmed that the PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel had powerful bactericidal activity and could achieve a rapid tissue repair effect. More importantly, the PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel had negligible biological toxicity and reduced the risk of inflammation. This study reveals that phototherm-nanozyme-hydrogel synergy holds great potential for bacterial wound infection therapy. Additionally, this is the first study to use two-dimensional MOF nanozymes in combination with hydrogel for antimicrobial therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Bacteria-infected wound is one of the serious threats to public health, and this topic has attracted tremendous attention worldwide in recent decades. Although numerous traditional therapeutic strategies that depend on antibiotics have been developed and applied for treating bacteria-infected wound disease, the effect of wound treatment is becoming increasingly unsatisfactory due to bacterial resistance. The present study provides a feasible method to treat bacterial wound infection by constructing a carrageenan-based hydrogel embedded with polyethylene glycol dicarboxylic acid (COOH-PEG-COOH) functionalized zirconium-ferrocene metal organic frame nanosheets (PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel). The experiments with the wound infection model confirmed that the PEG@Zr-Fc MOF hydrogel had powerful bactericidal activity and could achieve a rapid tissue repair. This strategy provides a promising avenue to further accelerate the development of antibacterial therapy in biomedical fields.

Composite materials, which are extensively used in 3D printing applications, can improve the printability and offer superior performances for the printed constructs. Herein, we review composite inks with a focus on composite hydrogels. The properties of different additives including fibers and nanoparticles are discussed. The performances of various composite inks in biological and biomedical systems are delineated through analyzing the synergistic effects between the composite ink components. Different applications, including tissue engineering, tissue model engineering, soft robotics, and four-dimensional printing, are selected to demonstrate how 3D-printable composite inks are exploited to achieve various desired functionality. This review finally presents an outlook of future perspectives on the design of composite inks.

Abstract
Hydrogels, due to their excellent biochemical and mechnical property, have shown attractive advantages in the field of wound dressings. However, a comprehensive review of the functional hydrogel as a wound dressing is still lacking. This work first summarizes the skin wound healing process and relates evaluation parameters and then reviews the advanced functions of hydrogel dressings such as antimicrobial property, adhesion and hemostasis, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidation, substance delivery, self-healing, stimulus response, conductivity, and the recently emerged wound monitoring feature, and the strategies adopted to achieve these functions are all classified and discussed. Furthermore, applications of hydrogel wound dressing for the treatment of different types of wounds such as incisional wound and the excisional wound are summarized. Chronic wounds are also mentioned, and the focus of attention on infected wounds, burn wounds, and diabetic wounds is discussed. Finally, the future directions of hydrogel wound dressings for wound healing are further proposed.

Abstract
3D printable materials based on polymeric ionic liquids (PILs) capable of controlling the synthesis and stabilisation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and their synergistic antimicrobial activity are reported. The interaction of the ionic liquid moieties with the silver precursor enabled the controlled in situ formation and stabilisation of AgNPs via extended UV photoreduction after the printing process, thus demonstrating an effective decoupling of the device manufacturing from the on-demand generation of nanomaterials, which avoids the potential aging of the nanomaterials through oxidation. The printed devices showed a multi-functional and tuneable microbicidal activity against Gram positive (B. subtilis) and Gram negative (E. coli) bacteria and against the mould Aspergillus niger. While the polymeric material alone was found to be bacteriostatic, the AgNPs conferred bactericidal properties to the material. Combining PIL-based materials with functionalities, such as in situ and photoactivated on-demand fabricated antimicrobial AgNPs, provides a synergistic functionality that could be harnessed for a variety of applications, especially when coupled to the freedom of design inherent to additive manufacturing techniques.

Abstract
Due to low success rates of antibiotic therapy in most osteomyelitis diseases, continuous efforts have been made to fabricate local delivery systems with high antimicrobial effects. Here, we reported a kind of ε-polylysine(PL)/Ag-loaded porous tricalcium phosphate (TCP) bead instead of antibiotics as local delivery systems for the treatment of Staphylococcus aureus-caused osteomyelitis. Such local delivery systems were prepared by the fabrication of porous TCP beads at first and then the loading of Ag and PL in turn into porous TCP beads via in situ Ag-doping and layer-by-layer methods. In vitro experiments demonstrated that the release of PL and Ag was controllable. Especially, the release dosage of Ag could be controlled to be less than 0.05 ppm 28 days later. The surface coating of PL improved the cytocompatibility and antibacterial activity of local delivery systems. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the Ag/PL-loaded porous TCP beads displayed strong antibacterial activity and good osteoconductivity, and the combination of Ag and PL was better than the use of single antibacterial materials to treat S. aureus-caused osteomyelitis. The implantation of Ag into the infected marrow had low toxicity because Ag has been integrated into the TCP grains, which could be absorbed in marrow. Therefore, the Ag/PL-loaded porous TCP beads presented potential for treating osteomyelitis, especially sequestrum-debrided osteomyelitis.

Abstract
Escalating medical expenses due to infectious diseases are causing huge socioeconomic pressure on mankind globally. The emergence of antibiotic resistance has further aggravated this problem. Drug-resistant pathogens are also capable of forming thick biofilms on biotic and abiotic surfaces to thrive in a harsh environment. To address these clinical problems, various strategies including antibacterial agent delivering matrices and bactericidal coatings strategies have been developed. In this review, we have discussed various types of polymeric vehicles such as hydrogels, sponges/cryogels, microgels, nanogels, and meshes, which are commonly used to deliver antibiotics, metal nanoparticles, and biocides. Compositions of these polymeric matrices have been elaborately depicted by elucidating their chemical interactions and potential activity have been discussed. On the other hand, various implant/device-surface coating strategies which exploit the release-active mechanism of bacterial killing are discussed in elaboration. This article is categorized under: Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Cardiovascular Disease Implantable Materials and Surgical Technologies > Nanomaterials and Implants Therapeutic Approaches and Drug Discovery > Nanomedicine for Infectious Disease.

Abstract
On account of unique mechanical property and inertia, parylene-C has become a promising material for microdevices especially in three-dimensional microstructures loaded with cells. However, parylene-C is not favorable for cell adhesion, and a routine procedure is to modify it with a new adhesive layer. Herein, the parylene-C substrates with or without collagen Ӏ (Col-I) coating were adopted to estimate the influence of micro-environment change on cell attachment and spreading. After modification with Col-I, cauliflower-like particles presented on the substrate surface. Contact angle was significantly decreased after Col-I modification, which suggested the surface hydrophilicity was enhanced. Furthermore, cells cultured on parylene-C surface with Col-I treatment showed increased proliferation rate and spreading areas. In order to test the adhesion strength, a series of fixed size parylene-C microplates was fabricated, and cell suspension concentration was adjusted to culture a single cell on one microplate. The microplate was folded by the autogenous shrinkage force of cell. The folding angles of parylene-C microplates with Col-I treatment exhibited higher folding angle (112.6 ± 15.6°) than untreated samples (46.7 ± 5.9°). The work proved the existence of Col-I layer was particularly important, especially in analysis of cells mechanics using parylene-C microplate as a substrate.

Abstract
The universal increase in the number of patients with nonhealing skin wounds imposes a huge social and economic burden on the patients and healthcare systems. Although, the application of traditional wound dressings contributes to an effective wound healing outcome, yet, the complexity of the healing process remains a major health challenge. Recent advances in materials and fabrication technologies have led to the fabrication of dressings that provide proper conditions for effective wound healing. The 3D-printed wound dressings, biomolecule-loaded dressings, as well as smart and flexible bandages are among the recent alternatives that have been developed to accelerate wound healing. Additionally, the new generation of wound dressings contains a variety of microelectronic sensors for real-time monitoring of the wound environment and is able to apply required actions to support the healing progress. Moreover, advances in manufacturing flexible microelectronic sensors enable the development of the next generation of wound dressing substrates, known as electronic skin, for real-time monitoring of the whole physiochemical markers in the wound environment in a single platform. The current study reviews the importance of smart wound dressings as an emerging strategy for wound care management and highlights different types of smart dressings for promoting the wound healing process.

Abstract
Bacterial infections cause severe secondary damage to wounds and hinder wound healing processes. We prepared magnesium oxide (MgO) nanoparticle-incorporated nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning and investigated their potential for wound dressing and fighting bacterial infection. MgO-Incorporated membranes possessed good elasticity and flexibility similar to native skin tissue and were hydrophilic, ensuring comfortable contact with wound beds. The cytocompatibility of membranes was dependent on the amounts of incorporated MgO nanoparticles: lower amounts promoted while higher amounts suppressed the proliferation of fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and macrophages. The antibacterial capacity of membranes was proportional to the amounts of incorporated MgO nanoparticles and they inhibited more than 98% E. coli, 90% S. aureus, and 94% S. epidermidis. MgO nanoparticle-incorporated membranes effectively suppressed bacterial infection and significantly promoted the healing processes of infected full-thickness wounds in a rat model. Subcutaneous implantation demonstrated that the incorporation of MgO nanoparticles into electrospun membranes elevated their bioactivity as evidenced by considerable cell infiltration into their dense nanofiber configuration and enhanced the remodeling of implanted membranes. This study highlights the potential of MgO-incorporated electrospun membranes in preventing bacterial infections of wounds.

Abstract
Injectable, drug-releasing hydrogel scaffolds with multifunctional properties including hemostasis and anti-bacterial activity are essential for successful wound healing; however, designing ideal materials is still challenging. Herein, we demonstrate the fabrication of a biodegradable, temperature-pH dual responsive supramolecular hydrogel (SHG) scaffold based on sodium alginate/poly(N-vinyl caprolactam) (AG/PVCL) through free radical polymerization and the subsequent chemical and ionic cross-linking. A natural therapeutic molecule, tannic acid (TA)-incorporated SHG (AG/PVCL-TA), was also fabricated and its hemostatic and wound healing efficiency were studied. In the AG/PVCL-TA system, TA acts as a therapeutic molecule and also substitutes as an effective gelation binder. Notably, the polyphenol-arm structure and diverse bonding abilities of TA can hold polymer chains through multiple bonding and co-ordinate cross-linking, which were vital in the formation of the mechanically robust AG/PVCL-TA. The SHG formation was successfully balanced by varying the composition of SA, VCL, TA and cross-linkers. The AG/PVCL-TA scaffold was capable of releasing a therapeutic dose of TA in a sustained manner under physiological temperature-pH conditions. AG/PVCL-TA displayed excellent free radical scavenging, anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, and cell proliferation activity towards the 3T3 fibroblast cell line. The wound healing performance of AG/PVCL-TA was further confirmed in skin excision wound models, which demonstrated the potential application of AG/PVCL-TA for skin regeneration and rapid wound healing.

Abstract
Degradable polymers are used widely in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Maturing capabilities in additive manufacturing coupled with advances in orthogonal chemical functionalization methodologies have enabled a rapid evolution of defect-specific form factors and strategies for designing and creating bioactive scaffolds. However, these defect-specific scaffolds, especially when utilizing degradable polymers as the base material, present processing challenges that are distinct and unique from other classes of materials. The goal of this review is to provide a guide for the fabrication of biodegradable polymer-based scaffolds that includes the complete pathway starting from selecting materials, choosing the correct fabrication method, and considering the requirements for tissue specific applications of the scaffold.

Abstract
Bioink with inherent antibacterial activity is of particular interest for tissue engineering application due to the growing number of bacterial infections associated with impaired wound healing or bone implants. However, the development of cell-laden bioink with potent antibacterial activity while supporting tissue regeneration proved to be challenging. Here, we introduced a cell-laden antibacterial bioink based on Methylcellulose/Alginate (MC/Alg) hydrogel for skin tissue engineering via elimination of the risks associated with a bacterial infection. The key feature of the bioink is the use of gallium (Ga+3) in the design of bioink formulation with dual functions. First, Ga+3 stabilized the hydrogel bioink by the formation of ionic crosslinking with Alg chains. Second, the gallium-crosslinked bioink exhibited potent antibacterial activity toward both Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Pseudomonas aeruginosa) bacteria with a bactericidal rate of 99.99 %. In addition, it was found that the developed bioink supported encapsulated fibroblast cellular functions.

Abstract
Biocontamination of medical devices and implants is a growing issue that causes medical complications and increased expenses. In the fight against biocontamination, developing synthetic surfaces, which reduce the adhesion of microbes and provide biocidal activity or combinatory effects, has emerged as a major global strategy. Advances in nanotechnology and biological sciences have made it possible to design smart surfaces for decreasing infections. Nevertheless, the clinical performance of these surfaces is highly depending on the choice of material. This review focuses on the antimicrobial surfaces with functional material coatings, such as cationic polymers, metal coatings and antifouling micro-/nanostructures. One of the highlights of the review is providing insights into the virus-inactivating surface development, which might particularly be useful for controlling the currently confronted pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The nanotechnology-based strategies presented here might be beneficial to produce materials that reduce or prevent the transmission of airborne viral droplets, once applied to biomedical devices and protective equipment of medical workers. Overall, this review compiles existing studies in this broad field by focusing on the recent related developments, draws attention to the possible activity mechanisms, discusses the key challenges and provides future recommendations for developing new, efficient antimicrobial and antiviral surface coatings.
