Abstract
Drug synergy has made significant strides in clinical applications in recent decades. However, achieving a platform that enables "single administration, multi-stage release" by emulating the natural physiological processes of the human body poses a formidable challenge in the field of molecular pharmaceutics. Hydrogels, as the novel generation of drug delivery systems, have gained widespread utilization in drug platforms owing to their exceptional biocompatibility and modifiability. Sequential drug delivery hydrogels (SDDHs), which amalgamate the advantages of hydrogel and sequential release platforms, offer a promising solution for effectively navigating the intricate human environment and accomplishing drug sequential release. Inspired by architectural design, this review establishes connections between three pivotal factors in SDDHs construction, namely mechanisms, carrier spatial structure, and stimuli-responsiveness, and three aspects of architectural design, specifically building materials, house structures, and intelligent interactive furniture, aiming at providing insights into recent developments in SDDHs. Furthermore, the dual-drug collocation and cutting-edge hydrogel preparation technologies as well as the prevailing challenges in the field were elucidated.

Abstract
Regulation of protein activity is important in their applications for biomedicine and therapeutics. Here, an approach for the regulation of protein bioactivity through molecular confinement provided by oligoethylene glycol (OEG)-based dendronized chitosan (DCS) hydrogels is reported. Structural effects on their thermoresponsiveness are investigated. The highly transparent hydrogels are formed from thermoresponsive DCSs through their thermal dehydration and exhibit an intriguing reversible sol-gel transition property when triggered at physiological temperatures. The thermo-gelling behavior and mechanical strength of these hydrogels are investigated, and possible effects from hydrophobicity of the OEG dendrons, grafting rates of the dendrons on the chitosan main chain, and solid content of polymers are examined. These DCS hydrogels are found to have lamellar morphologies and can provide characteristic hydrophobicity microenvironments formed through the crowded OEG dendrons, which show a higher level of confinement to guest proteins. This allows the DCS hydrogels remarkable activity protection capability to proteins. Furthermore, these DCS hydrogels inherit the degradability from chitosan, allowing protein release from these hydrogels through the controllable ways without impairing their activities.

Abstract
The development of devices for the precise and controlled delivery of therapeutics has grown rapidly over the last few decades. Drug delivery materials must provide a depot with delivery profiles that satisfy pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic requirements resulting in clinical benefit. Therapeutic efficacy can be limited due to short half-life and poor stability. Thus, to compensate for this, frequent administration and high doses are often required to achieve therapeutic effect, which in turn increases potential side effects and systemic toxicity. This can potentially be mitigated by using materials that can deliver drugs at controlled rates, and material design principles that allow this are continuously evolving. Affinity-based release strategies incorporate a myriad of reversible interactions into a gel network, which have affinities for the therapeutic of interest. Reversible binding to the gel network impacts the release profile of the drug. Such affinity-based interactions can be modulated to control the release profile to meet pharmacokinetic benchmarks. Much work has been done developing affinity-based control in the context of polymer-based materials. However, this strategy has not been widely implemented in peptide-based hydrogels. Herein, we present recent advances in the use of affinity-controlled peptide gel release systems and their associated mechanisms for applications in drug delivery.

Abstract
Corneal wound healing is a highly regulated biological process that is of importance for reducing the risk of blinding corneal infections and inflammations. Traditional eye drop was the main approach for promoting corneal wound healing. However, its low bioavailability required a high therapeutic concentration, which can lead to ocular or even systemic side effects. To develop a safe and effective method for treating corneal injury, we fabricated rutin-encapsulated gelatin hydrogel/contact lens composites by dual crosslinking reactions including in situ free radical polymerization and carboxymethyl cellulose/N-hydroxysulfosuccinimide crosslinking. In vitro drug release results evidenced that rutin in the composites could be sustainedly released for up to 14 days. In addition, biocompatibility assay indicated nontoxicity of the composites. Finally, the effect of rutin-encapsulated composites on the healing of the corneal injury in rabbits was investigated. The injury was basically cured in corneas using rutin-encapsulated composites (healing rate, 98.3% ± 0.7%) at 48 h post-operation, while the damage was still present in corneas using the composite (healing rate, 87.0% ± 4.5%). Further proteomics analysis revealed that corneal wound healing may be promoted by the ERK/MAPK and PI3K/AKT signal pathways. These results inform a potential intervention strategy to facilitate corneal wound healing in humans.

Abstract
Biopolymer-based hydrogels have emerged as promising platforms for drug delivery systems (DDSs) due to their inherent biocompatibility, tunable physical properties and controllable degradability. Yet, drug release in majority of these systems is solely contingent on diffusion of drug molecules through the hydrogel, which often leads to burst release of drugs from these systems. Herein, inspired by the chemistry of mussel adhesive proteins, a new generation of coaxial hydrogel fibers was developed that could simultaneously exert both affinity and diffusion control over the release of chemotherapeutic drugs. Specifically, dopamine-modified alginate hydrogel along with chemotherapeutic drugs (doxorubicin or gemcitabine) was used as the main core component to confer affinity-controlled release, while a methacrylated-alginate hydrogel was used as the shell composition to provide the controlled diffusion barrier. It was shown that our coaxial mussel-inspired biofibers yielded biocompatible hydrogel fibers (as indicated by comprehensive in vitro and in vivo experiments) with favourable properties including controlled swelling, and enhanced mechanical properties, when compared against single fibers made from unmodified alginate. Notably, it was observed that these coaxial fibers were capable of releasing the two drugs in a slower manner, when compared to single fibers made from pure alginate, which was partly attributed to stronger interactions of drugs with dopamine-modified alginate (the core element of coaxial fibers) as observed from zeta-potential measurements. It was further shown that these drug-loaded coaxial fibers had optimal anticancer activity both in vitro and in vivo using various pancreatic cancer cell lines. Most remarkably, drug loaded coaxial fibers, particularly doxorubicin-containing fibers, had higher anticancer effect in vivo compared to systemic injection of equivalent dosage of the drugs. Altogether, these biocompatible and robust hydrogel fibers may be further used as neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapies for controlled delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs locally to the tumor sites.

Abstract
Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration has been associated with low back pain, which is a major musculoskeletal disorder and socio-economic problem that affects as many as 600 million patients worldwide. Here, we first review the current knowledge of IVD physiology and physiopathological processes in terms of homeostasis regulation and consecutive events that lead to tissue degeneration. Recent progress with IVD restoration by anti-catabolic or pro-anabolic approaches are then analyzed, as are the design of macro-, micro-, and nano-platforms to control the delivery of such therapeutic agents. Finally, we hypothesize that a sequential delivery strategy that i) firstly targets the inflammatory, pro-catabolic microenvironment with release of anti-inflammatory or anti-catabolic cytokines; ii) secondly increases cell density in the less hostile microenvironment by endogenous cell recruitment or exogenous cell injection, and finally iii) enhances cellular synthesis of extracellular matrix with release of pro-anabolic factors, would constitute an innovative yet challenging approach to IVD regeneration.

Abstract
There has been increasing interest in constructing affinity-based drug delivery systems via different non-covalent interactions. Herein we report a host-guest interaction-based strategy to develop effective drug delivery systems using cyclodextrin-containing copolymers. Hydrophilic copolymers with one polyethylene glycol block and another block containing either α-cyclodextrin or β-cyclodextrin were synthesized. Using poly(β-benzyl l-aspartate) and pyrene as model guest compounds, we demonstrated the nanoparticle formation by host-guest interaction-mediated self-assembly. When an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory drug Tempol was used, the formation of well-defined spherical nanoparticles and therapeutic loading can be simultaneously realized. The obtained nanotherapy showed affinity-controlled drug release. In vitro cell culture experiments suggested that the host-guest nanotherapy exhibited desirable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in macrophages. In a mouse model of an inflammatory disease ulcerative colitis, the orally administered host-guest nanoparticle can be effectively accumulated in the inflamed colonic tissue. Oral treatment of mice bearing colitis with the nanotherapy led to significantly improved efficacy in comparison with free drugs. A good in vivo safety profile was also observed for the developed host-guest nanotherapy. Accordingly, these types of affinity nanoparticles based on CD-containing copolymers can function as effective nanoplatforms for targeted treatment of a plethora of diseases.

Abstract
Activated platelet-rich plasma (PRP), also referred to as platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), has been used to augment numerous techniques of cartilage repair in the knee but does not always result in superior quality of repair tissue. One possible reason that PRF does not consistently result in excellent cartilage regeneration is the transiency of growth factor provision with PRF. The objective of this study was to compare the release of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 from PRF and from PRP combined with a novel chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan (CS-GAG) gel. PRP was prepared from nine healthy dogs and split into two aliquots: one activated with bovine thrombin and calcium chloride (CaCl2) to form PRF and the other aliquot was used to rehydrate a lyophilized CS-GAG gel. Both PRF and the CS-GAG gels were incubated in media for 13 days and media were collected, stored, and replaced every 48 hours and the concentration of TGF-β1 quantified in the media using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Concentrations of TGF-β1 in the media were up to three times greater with the CS-GAG gels and were significantly (p < 0.05) greater than with PRF on days 3, 5, 7, 9, and 13. Furthermore, TGF-β1 elution was still substantial at day 13 with the use of the CS-GAG gels. Additional in vitro work is warranted to characterize TGF-β1 elution from this CS-GAG gel with human PRP and to determine whether the use of these CS-GAG gels can augment cartilage repair in vivo.

Abstract
The inefficiency of recombinant tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL)-based clinical regimens has been dominantly attributed to the short half-life of TRAIL. Affinity-controlled release using endogenous long-acting proteins, such as IgG and albumin, as carriers is extremely attractive for improving the pharmacokinetics of TRAIL. Up to now, it is unclear whether IgG-binding is efficient for affinity-controlled release of TRAIL. Methods: An IgG-binding affibody, IgBD, was genetically fused to the N-terminus of TRAIL to produce IgBD-TRAIL.The IgG-binding ability, cytotoxicity, serum half-life, and in vivo antitumor effect of IgBD-TRAIL were compared with that of TRAIL. In addition, an albumin-binding affibody, ABD, was fused to TRAIL to produce ABD-TRAIL. The cytototoxicity, serum half-life, and antitumor effect of IgBD-TRAIL and ABD-TRAIL were compared. Results: IgBD fusion endowed TRAIL with high affinity (nM) for IgG without interference with its cytotoxicity. The serum half-life of IgBD-TRAIL is 50-60 times longer than that of TRAIL and the tumor uptake of IgBD-TRAIL at 8-24 h post-injection was 4-7-fold that of TRAIL. In vivo antitumor effect of IgBD-TRAIL was at least 10 times greater than that of TRAIL. Owing to the high affinity (nM) for albumin, the serum half-life of ABD-TRAIL was 80-90 times greater than that of TRAIL. However, after binding to albumin, the cytotoxicity of ABD-TRAIL was reduced more than 10 times. In contrast, binding to IgG had little impact on the cytotoxicity of IgBD-TRAIL. Consequently, intravenously injected IgBD-TRAIL showed antitumor effects superior to those of ABD-TRAIL. Conclusions: Endogenous long-acting proteins, particularly IgG-based affinity-controlled release, prolonged the serum half-life as well as significantly enhanced the antitumor effect of TRAIL. IgBD-mediated endogenous IgG binding might be a novel approach for the affinity-controlled release of other protein drugs.

Abstract
Chronic, non-healing wounds place a significant burden on patients and healthcare systems, resulting in impaired mobility, limb amputation, or even death. Chronic wounds result from a disruption in the highly orchestrated cascade of events involved in wound closure. Significant advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology of chronic wounds have resulted in the development of drugs designed to target different aspects of the impaired processes. However, the hostility of the wound environment rich in degradative enzymes and its elevated pH, combined with differences in the time scales of different physiological processes involved in tissue regeneration require the use of effective drug delivery systems. In this review, we will first discuss the pathophysiology of chronic wounds and then the materials used for engineering drug delivery systems. Different passive and active drug delivery systems used in wound care will be reviewed. In addition, the architecture of the delivery platform and its ability to modulate drug delivery are discussed. Emerging technologies and the opportunities for engineering more effective wound care devices are also highlighted.

Abstract
Engineering cellular microenvironments involves biochemical factors, the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the interaction with neighbouring cells. This progress report provides a critical overview of key studies that incorporate growth factor (GF) signalling and mechanotransduction into the design of advanced microenvironments. Materials systems have been developed for surface-bound presentation of GFs, either covalently tethered or sequestered through physico-chemical affinity to the matrix, as an alternative to soluble GFs. Furthermore, some materials contain both GF and integrin binding regions and thereby enable synergistic signalling between the two. Mechanotransduction refers to the ability of the cells to sense physical properties of the ECM and to transduce them into biochemical signals. Various aspects of the physics of the ECM, i.e. stiffness, geometry and ligand spacing, as well as time-dependent properties, such as matrix stiffening, degradability, viscoelasticity, surface mobility as well as spatial patterns and gradients of physical cues are discussed. To conclude, various examples illustrate the potential for cooperative signalling of growth factors and the physical properties of the microenvironment for potential applications in regenerative medicine, cancer research and drug testing.
