The impact of copper nanoparticles surfactant on the structural and biological properties of chitosan/sodium alginate wound dressings. BIOMATERIALS ADVANCES 2024; 162:213918. [PMID: 38880016 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioadv.2024.213918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2024] [Revised: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024]
Abstract
Multifunctional wound dressings based on hydrogels are an efficacious and practicable strategy in therapeutic processes and accelerated chronic wound healing. Here, copper (Cu) nanoparticles were added to chitosan/sodium alginate (CS/SA) hydrogels to improve the antibacterial properties of the prepared wound dressings. Due to the super-hydrophobicity of Cu nanoparticles, polyethylene glycol (PEG) was used as a surfactant, and then added to the CS/SA-based hydrogels. The CS/SA/Cu hydrogels were synthesized with 0, 2, 3.5, and 5 wt% Cu nanoparticles. The structural and morphological properties in presence of PEG were evaluated using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The biodegradation and swelling properties of the hydrogels were investigated in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) at 37 °C for up to 30 days. Cell viability and adhesion, as well as antibacterial behavior, were investigated via MTT assay, FESEM, and disk diffusion method, respectively. The obtained results showed that PEG provided new intra- and intermolecular bonds that affected significantly the hydrogels' degradation and swelling ratio, which increased up to ~1200 %. Cell viability reached ~110 % and all samples showed remarkable antibacterial behavior when CS/SA/Cu containing 2 wt% was introduced. This study provided new insights regarding the use of PEG as a surfactant for Cu nanoparticles in CS/SA hydrogel wound dressing, ultimately affecting the chemical bonding and various properties of the prepared hydrogels.

Genetically encoded biocompatible anti-coagulant protein-coated coronary artery stents drive endothelialization. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2024; 238:113908. [PMID: 38677153 DOI: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.113908] [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: 01/21/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/29/2024]
Abstract
In response to the critical demand for advancements in coronary artery stents, this study addresses the challenges associated with arterial recoil and restenosis post-angioplasty and the imperative to encourage rapid re-endothelialization for minimizing thrombosis risks. We employed an innovative approach inspired by mussel adhesion, incorporating placental anticoagulant protein (AnnexinV) on stent design. The introduction of a post-translationally modified catecholic amino acid L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa), mimicking mussel characteristics, allowed for effective surface modification of Stainless steel stents through genetic code engineering in AnnexinV (AnxDopa). The efficacy of AnxDopa was analyzed through microscale thermophoresis and flow cytometry, confirming AnxDopa's exceptional binding with phosphatidylserine and activated platelets. AnxDopa coated stainless steel demonstrates remarkable bio-, hemo-, and immuno-compatibility, preventing smooth muscle cell proliferation, platelet adhesion, and fibrin formation. It acts as an interface between the stent and biological fluid, which facilitates the anticoagulation and rapid endothelialization. Surface modification of SS verified through XPS analysis and contact angle measurement attests to the efficacy of AnxDopa mediated surface modification. The hydrophilic nature of the AnxDopa-coated surface enhanced the endothelialization through increased protein absorption. This approach represents a significant stride in developing coronary stents with improved biocompatibility and reduced restenosis risks, offering valuable contributions to scientific and clinical realms alike.

Abstract
Blood-contacting catheters play a pivotal role in contemporary medical treatments, particularly in the management of cardiovascular diseases. However, these catheters exhibit inappropriate wettability and lack antimicrobial characteristics, which often lead to catheter-related infections and thrombosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need for blood contact catheters with antimicrobial and anticoagulant properties. In this study, we employed tannic acid (TA) and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) to create a stable hydrophilic coating under mild conditions. Heparin (Hep) and poly(lysine) (PL) were then modified on the TA-APTES coating surface using the layer-by-layer (LBL) technique to create a superhydrophilic TA/APTES/(LBL)4 coating on silicone rubber (SR) catheters. Leveraging the superhydrophilic nature of this coating, it can be effectively applied to blood-contacting catheters to impart antibacterial, antiprotein adsorption, and anticoagulant properties. Due to Hep's anticoagulant attributes, the activated partial thromboplastin time and thrombin time tests conducted on SR/TA-APTES/(LBL)4 catheters revealed remarkable extensions of 276 and 103%, respectively, when compared to uncoated commercial SR catheters. Furthermore, the synergistic interaction between PL and TA serves to enhance the resistance of SR/TA-APTES/(LBL)4 catheters against bacterial adherence, reducing it by up to 99.9% compared to uncoated commercial SR catheters. Remarkably, the SR/TA-APTES/(LBL)4 catheter exhibits good biocompatibility with human umbilical vein endothelial cells in culture, positioning it as a promising solution to address the current challenges associated with blood-contact catheters.

Abstract
Direct comparison of the sulfating agents H2SO4-DCC and SO3·py for the synthesis of sulfated alginate (S-Alg) as well as detailed characterisation of the products that form is lacking. This study involving three researchers used the tributylammonium salt of alginate (T-Alg) as a common substrate for the sulfation reactions. It was found that the use of H2SO4-DCC resulted in poor control of the degree of sulfation (DS) and that the S-Alg polymers contained nitrogen (determined by elemental analysis) as a result of formation of an unwanted N-acylurea adduct. Additionally, a large reduction in chain length was confirmed. In contrast, the use of SO3·py gave reasonable control over DS, resulted in high yields, showed no contamination and no clear change in chain length. Detailed characterisation of such S-Alg polymers by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and 1H,13C-HSQC NMR confirmed sulfation at C2 and C3 with a preference for C2.

Abstract
The use of biomaterials in implanted medical devices remains hampered by platelet adhesion and blood coagulation. Thrombus formation is a prevalent cause of failure of these blood-contacting devices. Although systemic anticoagulant can be used to support materials and devices with poor blood compatibility, its negative effects such as an increased chance of bleeding, make materials with superior hemocompatibility extremely attractive, especially for long-term applications. This review examines blood-surface interactions, the pathogenesis of clotting on blood-contacting medical devices, popular surface modification techniques, mechanisms of action of anticoagulant coatings, and discusses future directions in biomaterial research for preventing thrombosis. In addition, this paper comprehensively reviews several novel methods that either entirely prevent interaction between material surfaces and blood components or regulate the reaction of the coagulation cascade, thrombocytes, and leukocytes.

Abstract
Enzymes are widely used in industry due to their high efficiency and selectivity. However, their low stability during certain industrial processes can result in a significant loss of catalytic activity. Encapsulation is a promising technique that can stabilize enzymes by protecting them from environmental stresses such as extreme temperature and pH, mechanical force, organic solvents, and proteases. Alginate and alginate-based materials have emerged as effective carriers for enzyme encapsulation due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and ability to form gel beads through ionic gelation. This review presents various alginate-based encapsulation systems for enzyme stabilization and explores their applications in different industries. We discuss the preparation methods of alginate encapsulated enzymes and analyze the release mechanisms of enzymes from alginate materials. Additionally, we summarize the characterization techniques used for enzyme-alginate composites. This review provides insights into the use of alginate encapsulation as a means of stabilizing enzymes and highlights the potential benefits for various industrial applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cellular infiltration and angiogenesis into implanted biomaterial scaffolds are crucial for successful host tissue integration and tissue regeneration. Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) is a nano-sized cellulose derivative, which can form an injectable physical gel with salts. Sulfate groups of sulfated CNC (CNC-S) can act as a binding domain to various growth factors and cytokines with a heparin-binding domain for sustained release of them. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can promote the proliferation of endothelial cells and angiogenesis. In this study, VEGF-loaded CNC-S hydrogel was evaluated as an injectable scaffold that can induce cellular infiltration and angiogenesis. METHODS CNC-S was hydrolyzed to get desulfated CNC (CNC-DS), which was used as a negative control group against CNC-S. Both CNC-S and CNC-DS hydrogels were prepared and compared in terms of biocompatibility and VEGF release. The hydrogels with or without VEGF loading were subcutaneously injected into mice to evaluate the biocompatibility, cellular infiltration, and angiogenesis induction of the hydrogels. RESULTS Both hydrogels possessed similar stability and shear-thinning behavior to be applicable as injectable hydrogels. However, CNC-S hydrogel showed sustained release (until 8 weeks) of VEGF whereas CNC-DS showed a very fast release of VEGF with a large burst. Subcutaneously injected CNC-S hydrogel showed much enhanced cellular infiltration as well as better biocompatibility with milder foreign body response than CNC-DS hydrogel. Furthermore, VEGF-loaded CNC-S hydrogel induced significant angiogenesis inside the hydrogel whereas VEGF-loaded CNC-DS did not. CONCLUSION CNC-S possesses good properties as a biomaterial including injectability, biocompatibility, and allowing cellular infiltration and sustained release of growth factors. VEGF-loaded CNC-S hydrogel exhibited efficient angiogenesis inside the hydrogel. The sulfate group of CNC-S was a key for good biocompatibility and the biological activities of VEGF-loaded CNC hydrogel.

Abstract
In this study, heparin-like polysaccharides were successfully produced by sulfation of carboxymethylcellulose sodium, then a fully biobased bilayer composed of sulfated carboxymethylcellulose sodium (SCMC) and chitosan (CS) was composited on the surface of Poly (L-lactic acid) (PLA) through layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly for the potential blood-contact application such as bioresorbable vascular scaffold. The preliminary structure and bioactivity of SCMC with different degree of sulfation were investigated, and the SCMC with best performance was selected. The surface chemical compositions, morphologies and wettability of SCMC/CS multilayer-modified PLA films were researched by X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, scanning electron microscopy and water contact angle meter. A series of anticoagulation tests of SCMC/CS multilayer-modified PLA films were performed. In term of (SCMC/CS)15 multilayer-modified PLA film, the protein adsorption and plate adhesion decreased by 44.6 % and 71.5 %, respectively, the activated partial thromboplastin time prolonged by 11.9 times and thrombin time exceed 300 s, the contact activation and hemolysis rate significantly reduced compared with unmodified PLA film. Besides, this modified PLA films performed good cytocompatibility to L929 fibroblast cells, excellent anti-inflammatory and antibacterial abilities. In conclusion, the multifunctional SCMC/CS multilayer-modified PLA films with hemocompatibility, cytocompatibility, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties may have promising potential in future clinical applications.

Abstract
We fabricated a mussel-inspired hemocompatible polycarbonate membrane (PC) modified by the cross-linking of chondroitin sulfate and caffeic acid polymer using CA-CS via a Schiff base and Michael addition reaction and named it CA-CS-PC. The as-fabricated CA-CS-PC membrane shows excellent hydrophilicity with a water contact angle of 0° and a negative surface charge with a zeta potential of -32 mV. The antiadhesion property of the CA-CS-modified PC membrane was investigated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), using human plasma protein fibrinogen adsorption studies, and proved to have excellent antiadhesion properties, because of the lower fibrinogen adsorption. In addition, the CA-CS-PC membrane also shows enhanced hemocompatibility. Finally, blood cell attachment tests of the CA-CS-PC membrane were observed by CLSM and SEM, and the obtained results proved that CA-CS-PC effectively resisted cell adhesion, such as platelets and leucocytes. Therefore, this work disclosed a new way to design a simple and versatile modification of the membrane surface by caffeic acid and chondroitin sulfate and apply it for cell adhesion.

Abstract
Coagulation is a potential defense mechanism that involves activating a series of zymogens to convert soluble fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin clots to prevent bleeding and hemorrhagic complications. To prevent the extra formation and diffusion of clots, the counterbalance inhibitory mechanism is activated at levels of the coagulation pathway. Contrariwise, this system can evade normal control due to either inherited or acquired defects or aging which leads to unusual clots formation. The abnormal formations and deposition of excess fibrin trigger serious arterial and cardiovascular diseases. Although heparin and heparin-based anticoagulants are a widely prescribed class of anticoagulants, the clinical use of heparin has limitations due to the unpredictable anticoagulation, risk of bleeding, and other complications. Hence, significant interest has been established over the years to investigate alternative therapeutic anticoagulants from natural sources, especially from marine sources with good safety and potency due to their unique chemical structure and biological activity. This review summarizes the coagulation cascade and potential macromolecular anticoagulants derived from marine flora and fauna.

Abstract
Blood-contacting catheters occupy a vital position in modern clinical treatment including but not limited to cardiovascular diseases, but catheter-related thrombosis associated with high morbidity and mortality remains a major health concern. Hence, there is an urgent need for functionalized catheter surfaces with superior hemocompatibility that prevent protein adsorption and thrombus formation. In this work, we developed a strategy for constructing a kind of polyphenol-amine coating on the TPU surface (TLA) with tannic acid and lysine via simple dip-coating, inspired by dopamine adhesion. Based on the long-term stability and modifiable properties of TLA coatings, heparin was introduced by an amide reaction to provide anticoagulant activity (TLH). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and surface zeta potential measurements fully indicated the successful immobilization of heparin. Water contact angle measurements demonstrated good hydrophilicity and stability for 15 days of TLH coatings. Furthermore, the TLH coatings exhibited significant hemocompatibility and no cytotoxicity. The good antithrombotic properties of the functionalized surfaces were confirmed by an ex vivo blood circulation model. The present work is supposed to find potential clinical applications for preventing surface-induced thrombosis of blood-contacting catheters.

Abstract
Alginates are natural anionic polyelectrolytes investigated in various biomedical applications, such as drug delivery, tissue engineering, and 3D bioprinting. Functionalization of alginates is one possible way to provide a broad range of requirements for those applications. A range of techniques, including esterification, amidation, acetylation, phosphorylation, sulfation, graft copolymerization, and oxidation and reduction, have been implemented for this purpose. The rationale behind these investigations is often the combination of such modified alginates with different molecules. Particularly promising are lectin conjugate macromolecules for lectin-mediated drug delivery, which enhance the bioavailability of active ingredients on a specific site. Most interesting for such application are alginate derivatives, because these macromolecules are more resistant to acidic and enzymatic degradation. This review will report recent progress in alginate modification and conjugation, focusing on alginate-lectin conjugation, which is proposed as a matrix for mucoadhesive drug delivery and provides a new perspective for future studies with these conjugation methods.

Abstract
Biomimetic scaffolds that provide a tissue-specific environment to cells are particularly promising for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. The goal of this study was to integrate emerging additive manufacturing and biomaterial design strategies to produce articular cartilage (AC) mimetic scaffolds that could be used as 'off-the-shelf' implants for joint regeneration. To this end alginate sulfate, a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) mimic, was used to functionalize porous alginate-based scaffolds and to support the sustained release of transforming growth factor-β3 (TGF-β3). Covalent crosslinking dramatically improved the elasticity of the alginate/alginate sulfate scaffolds, while scaffold architecture could be tailored using a directional freezing technique. Introducing such an anisotropic architecture was found to promote mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) infiltration into the scaffold and to direct the orientation of the deposited extracellular matrix, leading to the development of cartilage tissue with a biomimetic zonal architecture. In vitro experiments also demonstrated the capacity of the sulfated scaffolds to both enhance chondrogenesis of MSCs and to control the release of TGF-β3, leading to the development of a tissue rich in sGAG and type II collagen. The scaffolds were further reinforced with a 3D printed PLCL framework, leading to composite implants that were more elastic than those reinforced with PCL, and which better mimicked the bulk mechanical properties of native cartilage tissue. The ability of this composite scaffold to support chondrogenesis was then confirmed within a dynamic culture system. Altogether, these findings demonstrate the potential of such biomimetic scaffolds as putative 'single-stage' or 'off-the-shelf' strategies for articular cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
We have demonstrated that alginate with negligible anticoagulant activity can be converted into carbonized nanogels with potent anticoagulant activity through a solid-state heating process. The conversion of alginate into graphene-like nanosheet (GNS)-embedded polyphenolic-alginate nanogels (GNS/Alg-NGs) has been carried out through condensation and carbonization processes. The GNS/Alg-NGs exhibit much stronger anticoagulant activity (>520-fold) compared to untreated alginate, mainly because their polyphenolic structures have a high binding affinity [dissociation constant (Kd) = 2.1 × 10-10 M] toward thrombin. In addition, the thrombin clotting time delay caused by the GNS/Alg-NGs is 10-fold longer than that of natural polyphenolic compounds, such as quercetin, catechin, naringenin, caffeic acid, and ferulic acid. The thrombin- or kaolin-activated thromboelastography of whole-blood coagulation reveals that the GNS/Alg-NGs display a much stronger anticoagulant ability than that of untreated alginate and naturally sulfated polysaccharides (fucoidan). The GNS/Alg-NGs exhibit superior biocompatibility and anticoagulant activity, as observed with an in vivo rat model, revealing their potential as a blood thinner for the treatment of thrombotic disorders.

Abstract
Alginate is a natural polysaccharide that is easily chemically modified or compounded with other components for various types of functionalities. The alginate derivatives are appealing not only because they are biocompatible so that they can be used in biomedicine or tissue engineering but also because of the prospering bioelectronics that require various biomaterials to interface between human tissues and electronics or to serve as electronic components themselves. The study of alginate-based materials, especially hydrogels, have repeatedly found new frontiers over recent years. In this Review, we document the basic properties of alginate, their chemical modification strategies, and the recent development of alginate-based functional composite materials. The newly thrived functions such as ionically conductive hydrogel or 3D or 4D cell culturing matrix are emphasized among other appealing potential applications. We expect that the documentation of relevant information will stimulate scientific efforts to further develop biocompatible electronics or smart materials and to help the research domain better address the medicine, energy, and environmental challenges faced by human societies.

Abstract
The accumulation of ice on surfaces brings dangerous and costly problems to our daily life. Thus, it would be desirable to design anti-icing coatings for various surfaces. We report a durable anti-icing coating based on mussel-inspired chemistry, which is enabled via fabricating a liquid water layer, achieved by modifying solid substrates with the highly water absorbing property of sodium alginate. Dopamine, the main component of the mussel adhesive protein, is introduced to anchor the sodium alginate in order to render the coating applicable to all types of solid surfaces. Simultaneously, it serves as the cross-linking agent for sodium alginate; thus, the cross-linking degree of the coatings could be easily varied. The non-freezable and freezable water in the coatings with different cross-link degrees all remain liquid-like at subzero conditions and synergistically fulfill the aim of decreasing the temperature of ice nucleation. These anti-icing coatings display excellent stability even under harsh conditions. Furthermore, these coatings can be applied to almost all types of solid surfaces and have great promise in practical applications.

The mechanisms through which GAGs regulate cancer cell functions are not fully understood but they are, in part, mediated by controlled interactions with cytokines and growth factors (GFs). In order to mechanistically understand the effect of the degree of sulfation (DS) of GAGs on lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cells, we synthesized sulfated alginate (AlgSulf) as sulfated GAG mimics with DS = 0.0, 0.8, 2.0, and 2.7. Human (H1792) and mouse (MDA-F471) LUAD cell lines were treated with AlgSulf of various DSs at two concentrations 10 and 100 µg/mL and their anti-tumor properties were assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT), trypan blue exclusion, and wound healing assays for 2D models and sphere formation assay for the 3D model. The proliferation and number of live MDA-F471 cells at the concentration of 100 µg/mL decreased significantly with the increase in the DS of biomimetic GAGs. In addition, the increase in the DS of biomimetic GAGs decreased cell migration (p < 0.001 for DS = 2.0 and 2.7 compared to control) and decreased the diameter and number of spheres formed (p < 0.001). The increased DS of biomimetic GAGs attenuated the expression of cancer stem cell (CSC)/progenitor markers in the 3D cultures. In conclusion, GAG-mimetic AlgSulf with increased DS exhibit enhanced anti-proliferative and migratory properties while also reducing growth of KRAS-mutant LUAD spheres in vitro. We suggest that these anti-tumor effects by GAG-mimetic AlgSulf are possibly due to differential binding to GFs and consequential decreased cell stemness. AlgSulf may be suitable for applications in cancer therapy after further in vivo validation.

Abstract
Poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) has been the most commonly used polymer for making bioresorbable vascular scaffolds (BVS). Despite owning remarkable properties, BVS made from PLLA are facing higher rates of early thrombosis compared with permanent metallic scaffolds. To solve this issue, we modified the PLLA film surface with heparin-mimetic polysaccharide multilayers consisting of sulfated Chinese yam polysaccharide (SCYP) and chitosan (CS) through layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly. The surface chemical compositions, morphologies and growth manner of SCYP/CS multilayers were investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. The relevant hemocompatibility results showed that multilayer-modified PLLA could effectively resist protein adsorption, suppress the platelet adhesion, prolong clotting time, prevent contact and complement activation as well as reduce hemolysis rate. Moreover, the multilayer-modified PLLA exhibited non-cytotoxicity, good antibacterial ability against E. coli and S. aureus, and drug loading/sustained releasing behavior. Overall, the multifunctional PLLA film with integrated properties of hemocompatibility, non-cytotoxicity, antibacterial and drug loading/releasing behavior could be successfully achieved by deposition of SCYP/CS multilayers, which will have potential application in blood-contacting biomedical materials.

Abstract
Seaweeds and their bioactive compounds, particularly polysaccharides and phenolics can be regarded as great dietary supplements with gut health benefits and prebiotics. These components are resistant to digestion by enzymes present in the human gastrointestinal tract, also selectively stimulate the growth of beneficial gut bacteria and the production of fermentation products such as short chain fatty acids. Commonly, the health benefits of seaweed components are assessed by including them in an in vitro anaerobic fermentation system containing human fecal inocula that mimics the environment of the human large bowel. Regarding to the complex interactions between dietary components, gastrointestinal physiological processes, and gut microbiota are difficult to model in vitro. Consequently it is important to follow up the promising in vitro results with in vivo animal or human testing. The aim of this chapter is to have a comprehensive review on the application of seaweeds and seaweed-derived metabolites as prebiotics, and understand the trends, gaps and future directions of both scientific and industrial developments. This work contributes to develop and expand new platform of seaweed utilization for higher-value products, particularly to functional food and nutraceutical industries in order to serve the social demand for health awareness and support economic development.

Abstract
Mussel adhesive proteins (MAPs) have a unique ability to firmly adhere to different surfaces in aqueous environments via the special amino acid, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA). The catechol groups in DOPA are a key group for adhesive proteins, which is highly informative for the biomedical domain. By simulating MAPs, medical products can be developed for tissue adhesion, drug delivery, and wound healing. Hydrogel is a common formulation that is highly adaptable to numerous medical applications. Based on a discussion of the adhesion mechanism of MAPs, this paper reviews the formation and adhesion mechanism of catechol-functionalized hydrogels, types of hydrogels and main factors affecting adhesion, and medical applications of hydrogels, and future the development of catechol-functionalized hydrogels.

Abstract
Heparin-like biomacromolecules (HepLBm), exhibiting similar chemical structure and biological properties to heparin, can be obtained by modifying either synthetic biopolymers or natural biomacromolecules with physical or chemical methods. In this work, a low-cost and biocompatible sodium alginate was chosen as a model biomacromolecule to design anticoagulant HepLBm with a similar sulfation degree to heparin. FTIR, 1H NMR, and element analysis data were used to confirm the chemical structure of HepLBm. Hemolysis tests, clotting time, complement activation, and contact activation tests were carried out to determine the in vitro anticoagulant activity of HepLBm. In addition, systematic studies of blood cell count, coagulation function, and histopathology were performed to demonstrate the in vivo anticoagulant activity and toxicity of HepLBm with SD rat experiments. Furthermore, a series of linear molecules containing carboxyl groups, sulfonic groups, and hydroxyl groups were selected and their clotting time was tested to provide a mechanism analysis for the excellent anticoagulant activity of HepLBm. With the excellent in vitro/in vivo anticoagulant activity, good biocompatibility, and low cost, the HepLBm synthesized in this work would have great potential for substitution of heparin in many application fields, such as the surface modification of biomedical devices, extracorporeal anticoagulants, and other clinical fields.

Abstract
Marine plants, animals and microorganisms display steady growth in the ocean and are abundant carbohydrate resources. Specifically, natural polysaccharides obtained from brown algae have been drawing increasing attention owing to their great potential in pharmaceutical applications. This review describes the structural and biological features of brown algal polysaccharides, including alginates, fucoidans, and laminarins, and it highlights recently developed approaches used to obtain the oligo- and polysaccharides with defined structures. Functional modification of these polysaccharides promotes their advanced applications in biomedical materials for controlled release and targeted drug delivery, etc. Moreover, brown algal polysaccharides and their derivatives possess numerous biological activities with anticancer, anticoagulant, wound healing, and antiviral properties. In addition, we also discuss carbohydrate- based substrates from brown algae, which are currently in clinical and preclinical studies, as well as the marine drugs that are already on the market. The present review summarizes the recent development in carbohydratebased products from brown algae, with promising findings that could rapidly facilitate the future discovery of novel marine drugs.

Abstract
Oligochitosan (OCHI) is known to have some specific biological activities. However, its interactions with blood components and related correlation with molecular structures remains to be clarified due to its growing use in biomedical areas. Herein, a series of OCHI were prepared by hydrogen peroxide induced degradation combined fractionation in ethanol solutions and their molecular structures were characterized by GPC, FTIR, 1H and 13C NMR, and then the interactions of the prepared OCHI with blood components, including red blood cells (hemolysis, deformability, and aggregation), coagulation system, complement (C3a, and C5a activation), and platelet (activation, and aggregation), were investigated. For red blood cells, OCHI has a quite low risk of hemolysis in a dose- and MW-dependent manner and the deformability and aggregation were observed in its high MW fraction. The coagulation tests revealed that OCHI is capable of a mild anticoagulation through blocking the intrinsic pathway and the anticoagulation corresponding MW was identified. In terms of complement, OCHI could inhibit C3a in a dose-dependent manner and activate C5a with its high MW fraction. In addition, there is no significant effect of OCHI on platelet activation and aggregation. Based on above results, the interactions related mechanism was discussed and proposed.

Abstract
1,3,5-Tris(4-aminophenoxy) benzene (TAPOB) and 2,2-bis [4-(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy) phenyl] propane dianhydride (BPADA) were used to synthesize an amino-terminated hyperbranched polyimide (AM-HBPI). Then, the 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine-modified hyperbranched polyimide (HBPI-MPC) was obtained through the graft modification of MPC onto AM-HBPI by Michael addition. The infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra showed MPC molecules were successfully grafted onto the HBPI molecules. The HBPI-MPC films exhibited slightly decreased thermal stabilities with 5% weight loss temperature in the range of of 418-483 °C in nitrogen, compared with the pure HBPI film. With the increase of MPC grafting amount, the static water contact angles decreased from average 84.0° of the pure HBPI film to average 45.0° of the HBPI-MPC film with 20% MPC. Meanwhile, the increased surface roughness of the HBPI-MPC films increased the contact areas with the platelets, enhancing their anticoagulant efficiency. The number of platelet adhesion declined and the shape of platelet changed from flat to round. The recalcification times grew from average 300 s of pure HBPI to average 551 s of the HBPI-MPC film with 20% MPC, indicating improved anticoagulant properties and biocompatibility. Bacterial adhesion test also demonstrated the number of bacterial adhesion was significantly reduced and antibacterial properties were improved. Thus, the HBPI-MPC films have great application prospects as biomedical anticoagulant materials.

Abstract
Herein, a substrate-independent ultrathin hydrogel film was constructed on a microfiltration membrane through layer-by-layer (LbL) thiol-ene click chemistry to improve the antifouling and antibacterial properties. In our strategy, ene-functionalized dopamine was synthesized and coated onto a model substrate (polyethersulfone membrane) to introduce double bonds as anchoring sites for the hydrogel film; thiol-functionalized poly[oligo(ethylene glycol)mercaptosuccinate] (POEGMS) and ene-functionalized P(SBMA-co-AA) were synthesized as hydrogel precursors. The membrane was alternately immersed in the precursor solutions to form the ultrathin hydrogel film. Finally, Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) were loaded into the hydrogel layer by adsorption and reduction procedures. By coating the hydrogel films, the loaded AgNPs could kill almost all the contacting bacteria and the bacteria in the surroundings, and the enhanced hydrophilicity of the modified membrane could effectively prevent the attachment of the bacteria. The membrane flux showed no significant decrease, the rejection ratio of BSA increased from 51% to 89%, and the FRR increased from 36% to 90%. Moreover, the improvement of the hemocompatibility was confirmed by the decline in the plasma protein adsorption, prolonged clotting times, low hemolysis ratio, and prevention of platelet adhesion. Compared with that of other techniques for attaching hydrogel films, the main advantage of the current technique is that the hydrogel film thickness could be well controlled within the nanometer range; thus, it could significantly improve the antifouling and antibacterial properties of the membrane, but without compromising its permeability. Another advantage is that it is versatile for various substrates such as PVDF, PAN, and CA. This study opens up a facile and versatile route for anchoring ultrathin hydrogel film onto polymeric membranes to achieve excellent antifouling, antibacterial and hemocompatible properties.

Abstract
Biological naïve extracellular matrices (ECMs) exhibit anisotropic functions in their physical, chemical, and morphological properties. Representative examples include anisotropic skin layers or blood vessels simultaneously facing multiphasic environments. Here, anisotropically multifunctional structures called BiFACIAL ( biomimetic freestanding anisotropic catechol- interfaces with asymmetrically layered) films were developed simply by contacting two polysaccharide solutions of heparin-catechol (Hep-C) and chitosan-catechol (Chi-C). Such anisotropic characters were due to controlling catechol cross-linking by alkaline pH, resulting in a trimodular structure: a rigid yet porous Hep-C exterior, nonporous interfacial zone, and soft/highly porous Chi-C interior. The anisotropic features of each layer, including the porosity, rigidity, rheology, composition, and ionic strength, caused the BiFACIAL films to show spontaneously biased stimuli responses and differential behaviors against biological substances (e.g., blood plasma). The films could be created in situ in live animals and imitated the structural/functional aspects of the representative anisotropic tissues (e.g., skin and blood vessels), providing valuable ECM-like platforms for the creation of favorable environments or for tissue regeneration or disease treatment by effectively manipulating cellular behaviors.

Abstract
Heparin, a sulfated polysaccharide belonging to the glycosaminoglycan family, has been widely used as an anticoagulant drug for decades and remains the most commonly used parenteral anticoagulant in adults and children. However, heparin has important clinical limitations and is derived from animal sources which pose significant safety and supply problems. The ever growing shortage of the raw material for heparin manufacturing may become a very significant issue in the future. These global limitations have prompted much research, especially following the recent well-publicized contamination scandal, into the development of alternative anticoagulants derived from non-animal and/or totally synthetic sources that mimic the structural features and properties of heparin. Such compounds, termed heparin mimetics, are also needed as anticoagulant materials for use in biomedical applications (e.g., stents, grafts, implants etc.). This review encompasses the development of heparin mimetics of various structural classes, including synthetic polymers and non-carbohydrate small molecules as well as sulfated oligo- and polysaccharides, and fondaparinux derivatives and conjugates, with a focus on developments in the past 10 years.

Abstract
Pathogenic bacterial infection has been becoming a global threat toward people's health, especially the massive usage of antibiotics due to the lack of antibacterial agents with less side effects. Developing new nanoagents to fight pathogenic bacteria has provided enormous new possibilities in the treatment of bacterial infections, such as graphene-based two-dimensional (2D) antibacterial nanoagents with different bacterial inhibition capabilities; however, mussel-inspired design of near-infrared (NIR)-responsive and biocompatible Ag-graphene nanoagents possessing efficient and versatile bacterial disinfection activities have rarely been reported. In this study, we developed a new kind of antibacterial nanoagent, dopamine-conjugated polysaccharide sulfate-anchored and -protected Ag-graphene (Ag@G-sodium alginate sulfate ((SAS)) nanocomposite, to combat bacterial infection and contamination in different application fields. Ag@G-SAS exhibited robust antibacterial activity toward both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus; notably, the nanoagent can significantly inhibit S. aureus infection on wounded pig skin without or with NIR laser. Besides wound disinfection, the 2D Ag@G-SAS can also serve as a good layer-by-layer (LbL) building block for the construction of self-sterilizing coatings on biomedical devices. All of the results verified that the LbL-assembled Ag@G-SAS coating exhibited favorable bactericidal activity, extraordinary blood compatibilities, and good promotion ability for cell proliferation. Owing to the shielding effects of heparin-like polysaccharide sulfates, the Ag@G-SAS nanoagent showed limited cytotoxicity toward mammalian cells. Combining all of the advantages mentioned above, it is believed that the proposed Ag@G-SAS nanoagent and its LbL-assembled coatings may have versatile application potentials to avoid bacterial contaminations in different fields, such as wounded skin, disinfection of biomedical implants and devices, and food packaging sterilization.

Abstract
Thrombus and infections are the most common causes for the failure of medical devices, leading to higher hospitalization costs and, in some cases, patient morbidity. It is, therefore, necessary to develop novel strategies to prevent thrombosis and infection caused by medical devices. Herein, we report a simple and a highly efficient strategy to impart antithrombotic and antimicrobial properties to substrates, by simultaneously immobilizing heparin and in situ-synthesized silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) via a tyrosinase-catalyzed reaction. This consists of tyrosinase-oxidized phenolic groups of a heparin derivative (heparin-grafted tyramine, HT) to catechol groups, followed by immobilizing heparin and inducing the in situ Ag NP formation onto poly(urethane) (PU) substrates. The successful immobilization of both heparin and in situ Ag NPs on the substrates was confirmed by analyses of water contact angles, XPS, SEM, and AFM. The sustained silver release and the surface stability were observed for 30 days. Importantly, the antithrombotic potential of the immobilized surfaces was demonstrated by a reduction in fibrinogen absorption, platelet adhesion, and prolonged blood clotting time. Additionally, the modified PU substrates also exhibited remarkable antibacterial properties against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The results of this work suggest a useful, effective, and time-saving method to improve simultaneous antithrombotic and antibacterial performances of a variety of substrate materials for medical devices.

Abstract
Heparin is widely recognized for its potent anticoagulating effects, but has an additional wide range of biological properties due to its high negative charge and heterogeneous molecular structure. This heterogeneity has been one of the factors in motivating the exploration of functional analogues with a more predictable modification pattern and monosaccharide sequence, that can aid in elucidating structure-function relationships and further be structurally customized to fine-tune physical and biological properties toward novel therapeutic applications and biomaterials. Alginates have been of great interest in biomedicine due to their inherent biocompatibility, gentle gelling conditions, and structural versatility from chemo-enzymatic engineering, but display limited interactions with cells and biomolecules that are characteristic of heparin and the other glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) of the extracellular environment. Here, we review the chemistry and physical and biological properties of sulfated alginates as structural and functional heparin analogues, and discuss how they may be utilized in applications where the use of heparin and other sulfated GAGs is challenging and limited.
