Abstract
Bleeding to death accounts for around 30-40% of all trauma-related fatalities. Current hemostatic materials are mainly mono-functional or have insufficient hemostatic capacity. Nanoclay has been recently shown to accelerate hemostasis, improve wound healing, and provide the resulting multifunctional hemostatic materials antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and healing-promoting due to its distinctive morphological structure and physicochemical properties. Herein, the chemical design and action mechanism of nanoclay-based hemostatic, antibacterial, and pro-wound healing materials in the context of wound healing are discussed. The physiological processes of hemostasis and wound healing to elucidate the significance of nanoclay for functional wound hemostatic dressing design are outlined. A summary of the features of various nanoclay and product types used in wound hemostatic dressings is provided. Nanoclay can be antimicrobial due to the slow release of metal ions and has an abundant surface charge allowing for high affinity for proteins and cells, which can activate the coagulation reaction or facilitate tissue repair. Nanoclay with a microporous structure can be used as drug carriers to create composites critical for inhibiting bacterial growth on wounds or promoting the regeneration of vascular, muscle, and skin tissues. Directions for further research and innovation of nanoclay-based multifunctional materials for hemostasis and tissue regeneration are explored.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Immediate control of bleeding and anti-infection play important roles in wound management. Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and death may occur if persistent bleeding, hemodynamic instability, and hypoxemia are not addressed. The combination of clay and hydrogel provides a new outlet for wound hemostasis. In this review, the current research progress of hydrogel/clay composite hemostatic agents was reviewed. AREAS COVERED This paper summarizes the characteristics of several kinds of clay including kaolinite, montmorillonite, laponite, sepiolite, and palygorskite. The advantages and disadvantages of its application in hemostasis were also summarized. Future directions for the application of hydrogel/clay composite hemostatic agents are presented. EXPERT OPINION Clay can activate the endogenous hemostatic pathway by increasing blood cell concentration and promoting plasma absorption to accelerate the hemostasis. Clay is antimicrobial due to the slow release of metal ions and has a rich surface charge with a high affinity for proteins and cells to promote tissue repair. Hydrogels have some properties such as good biocompatibility, strong adhesion, high stretchability, and good self-healing. Despite promising advances, hydrogel/clay composite hemostasis remains a limitation. Therefore, more evidence is needed to further elucidate the risk factors and therapeutic effects of hydrogel/clay in hemostasis and wound healing.

[PMID: 37442090 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202300708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2023] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
Hemostatic sealant is required to deal with blood loss, especially in the scenario of traumatic brain injury (TBI), which presents high rates of morbidity and disability. Hemostasis in surgery with traditional gelatin-based sealants often leads to blood loss and other issues in brain because of the hydrophilic gelatin swelling. Herein, hydrophobic effects on the hemostasis in TBI surgery are studied by tuning the chain length of polystyrene (PS) onto methylacrylated gelatin (Gel-MA). The hydrophobicity and hemostatic efficiency can be tuned by controlling the length of PS groups. The platelet activation of modified sealants Gel-MA-2P, Gel-MA-P, and Gel-MA-0.5P is as much as 17.5, 9.1, and 2.1 times higher than Gel-MA in vitro. The hemostatic time of Gel-MA-2P, Gel-MA-P, and Gel-MA-0.5P groups is 2.0-, 1.6-, and 1.1-folds faster than that in Gel-MA group in TBI mice. Increased formation of fibrins and platelet aggregation can also be observed in vitro by scanning electron microscopy. Animal's mortality is lowered by 46%, neurologic deficiency is reduced by 1.5 times, and brain edema is attenuated by 10%. Protein expression is further investigated to exhibit toxic iron-related processes caused by delayed hemostasis and activation of platelets via PI3K/PKC-α signaling. The hydrophobic Gel-MA has the potential in hemostatic TBI and promotes nervous system recovery in brain with the potentials in clinics.

With the advancement of science, technology and ideology, CM-based hemostatic materials have undergone continuous innovations by integrating new inspirations with conventional concepts. This review systematically summarizes the hemostatic mechanisms of different natural CMs based on their nanostructures. Moreover, it also comprehensively reviews the latest research progress for CM-based hemostatic hybrid and nanocomposite materials, and discusses the challenges and developments in this field.

Abstract
Recently, increasing attention has been paid to natural polysaccharides for their low cost, biocompatibility and biodegradability. Quaternization is a modification method to improve the solubility and antibacterial ability of natural polysaccharides. Water-soluble derivatives of cellulose, chitin and chitosan offer the prospect of diverse applications in a wide range of fields, such as antibacterial products, drug delivery, wound healing, sewage treatment and ion exchange membranes. By combining the inherent properties of cellulose, chitin and chitosan with the inherent properties of the quaternary ammonium groups, new products with multiple functions and properties can be obtained. In this review, we summarized the research progress in the applications of quaternized cellulose, chitin and chitosan in recent five years. Moreover, ubiquitous challenges and personal perspectives on the further development of this promising field are also discussed.

Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is one of the greatest threats to global health and food security today. It becomes increasingly difficult to treat infectious disorders because antibiotics, even the newest ones, are becoming less and less effective. One of the ways taken in the Global Plan of Action announced at the World Health Assembly in May 2015 is to ensure the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. In order to do so, attempts are made to develop new antimicrobial therapeutics, including biomaterials with antibacterial activity, such as polycationic polymers, polypeptides, and polymeric systems, to provide non-antibiotic therapeutic agents, such as selected biologically active nanoparticles and chemical compounds. Another key issue is preventing food from contamination by developing antibacterial packaging materials, particularly based on degradable polymers and biocomposites. This review, in a cross-sectional way, describes the most significant research activities conducted in recent years in the field of the development of polymeric materials and polymer composites with antibacterial properties. We particularly focus on natural polymers, i.e., polysaccharides and polypeptides, which present a mechanism for combating many highly pathogenic microorganisms. We also attempt to use this knowledge to obtain synthetic polymers with similar antibacterial activity.

Abstract
A novel iminodisuccinate modified chitin (ICH) was prepared using crab shells via a one-step facile procedure. The ICH with grafting degree of 1.46 and deacetylation degree of 47.68 % possessed maximum adsorption capacity of 2572.41 mg/g for silver ions (Ag(I)).The ICH also exhibited good selectivity and reusability. The adsorption followed better with the Freundlich isotherm model, while fitted well with both the Pseudo-first-order and Pseudo-second-order kinetics models. The characteristical results showed that the excellent Ag(I) adsorption capability of ICH should be attributed to both looser porous microstructure as well as additional functional groups-grafting molecular. Moreover, the Ag-loaded ICH (ICH-Ag) showed remarkable antibacterial properties against six typical pathogenic bacteria strains (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter aerogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes), with the corresponding 90 % minimal inhibitory concentrations ranged 0.426-0.685 mg/mL. Further study on the silver release, microcell morphology, and metagenomic analysis suggested that many Ag nanoparticles were formed after the Ag(I) adsorption, and the antibacterial mechanisms of the ICH-Ag involved both cell membranes destruction and intracellular metabolism disturbing. This research presented a coupling solution of crab shell wastes treatment with chitin-based bioadsorbents preparation, metal removal and recovery, as well as antibacterial agent production.

Abstract
Polymer complex fibers (PCFs) are a novel kind of fiber material processed from polymer complexes that are assembled through noncovalent interactions. These can realize the synergy of functional components and miscibility on the molecular level. The dynamic character of noncovalent interactions endows PCFs with remarkable properties, such as reversibility, stimuli responsiveness, self-healing, and recyclability, enabling them to be applied in multidisciplinary fields. The objective of this article is to provide a review of recent progress in the field of PCFs. The classification based on chain interactions will be first introduced followed by highlights of the fabrication technologies and properties of PCFs. The effects of composition and preparation method on fiber properties are also discussed, with some emphasis on utilizing these for rational design. Finally, we carefully summarize recent advanced applications of PCFs in the fields of energy storage and sensors, water treatment, biomedical materials, artificial actuators, and biomimetic platforms. This review is expected to deepen the comprehension of PCF materials and open new avenues for developing PCFs with tailor-made properties for advanced application.

Sericin and egg white (EW) have shown the ability to promote wound healing. However, there have been insufficient studies regarding the effects of sericin and EW mixtures on wound healing. This study aimed to investigate the effects of a hybrid sericin and EW solution on wound repair and inflammation-related indicators in mouse skin. In this work, sericin with a low molecular weight was first mixed with homogeneous EW to prepare a hybrid wound dressing. Histology evaluation, the expression of C-reactive protein (CRP) and inflammatory cytokines in mice were tested to determine the effects of this dressing on skin injuries in mice. The results showed that sericin and the hybrid solution of sericin and EW effectively promoted wound healing in mouse skin. The wound recovery rates of mice 12 days after treatment with a medium dose of sericin (0.2 g ml-1) and the same dosage of sericin with added EW were 1.32 and 1.65 times that of mice treated with phosphate buffer saline as a control, respectively. In addition, the mixture solution was more effective in wound healing than sericin alone. Sericin with EW significantly reduced the expression of CRP and inflammatory cytokines in mice during wound healing. A sericin and EW hybrid solution can effectively shorten the time needed for wound healing and reduce inflammation-related indicators in mice, making it a promising candidate for wound dressing.

ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2022; 34:e2206855.

Abstract
Compared with raw rectorite microplatelets (RMs), rectorite nanosheets (RNs) have considerably greater application prospects in the preparation of advanced composite materials because of their larger aspect ratio, higher surface reactivity, and intrinsically superior mechanical and physical properties. However, the difficulty in the efficient preparation of RNs significantly limits their large-scale applications. Here, a scalable poly(vinylpyrrolidone)-assisted stirring approach is developed to prepare ultrathin RNs from the abundant natural RMs. A higher production rate (≈0.675 g h-1 ) is achieved compared with that of most other nanosheets. Additionally, instead of using conventional time- and energy-consuming high-speed centrifugation, an efficient poly(dienedimethylammonium chloride)-assisted sedimentation strategy is proposed here to rapidly separate the exfoliated RNs from the RN dispersion. Then, the RNs are co-assembled with aramid nanofibers (ANFs) into large-scale nacre-mimetic ANF-RN nanopapers with considerably enhanced mechanical, electrical insulating, and high-temperature-resistant properties compared with pure ANF nanopapers and ANF-RM micropapers. Moreover, these properties are superior to those of previously reported ANF-based nanopapers and commercial insulating micropapers.

Abstract
Hemorrhage is a prime cause of death in civilian and military traumatic injuries, whereby a significant proportion of death and complications occur prior to paramedic arrival and hospital resuscitation. Hence, it is crucial to develop hemostatic materials that are able to be applied by simple processes and allow control over bleeding by inducing rapid hemostasis, non-invasively, until subjects receive necessary medical care. This tutorial review discusses recent advances in synthesis and fabrication of degradable hemostatic nanomaterials and nanocomposites. Control of assembly and fine-tuning of composition of absorbable (i.e., degradable) hemostatic supramolecular structures and nanoconstructs have afforded the development of smart devices and scaffolds capable of efficiently controlling bleeding while degrading over time, thereby reducing surgical operation times and hospitalization duration. The nanoconstructs that are highlighted have demonstrated hemostatic efficiency pre-clinically in animal models, while also sharing characteristics of degradability, bioabsorbability and presence of nano-assemblies within their compositions.

SF/PVP nanofiber wound dressings loaded with phlorizin: preparation, characterization, in vivo and in vitro evaluation. Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces 2022; 217:112692.

Abstract
Electrospinning-based wound dressings have multiple functions such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and therapeutic, and are important in skin wound care. Herein, we designed a phlorizin (PHL)-loaded silk protein/polyvinylpyrrolidone (SF/PVP) composite nanofibrous membrane, which can be used as multiple wound dressings. In particular, SF/PVP/PHL scaffolds have high porosity and mechanical properties, exhibiting suitable permeability and hydrophilicity. The SF/PVP/PHL scaffolds containing PHL also have excellent antibacterial and antioxidant activities. Furthermore, the nanofiber significantly accelerated the wound healing process in a full-thickness skin injury model by enhancing wound re-epithelialization and collagen deposition density, increasing the content of macrophage antigen (CD68), platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule (CD31), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and inhibiting the expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) at the wound site. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/serine-threonine kinase/ target of rapamycin (PI3K/AKT/mTOR) signaling pathway to enhance autophagy. Therefore, SF/PVP/PHL nanofibers can ideally meet the various requirements of the wound healing process and are promising wound dressing candidates for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Chronic wound healing is a major threat all over the world. There are currently a plethora of biomaterials-based wound dressings available for wound healing applications. In this study, a dual protein-based (silk fibroin and sericin) nanofibrous scaffold from a natural source (B.mori silkworm cocoons) with antibacterial and antioxidative properties for wound healing was investigated. An electrospun layer-by-layer silk protein-based nanofibrous scaffold was fabricated with a top layer of hydrophobic silk fibroin protein blended with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), a middle layer of waste protein silk sericin loaded with silver(I) sulfadiazine as an antibacterial agent, and a bottom layer using silk fibroin blended with polycaprolactone (PCL). The trilayered nanofibrous scaffold with a smooth and bead-free morphology demonstrated excellent wettability, slow in vitro degradation, controlled drug release, and potent antibacterial and antioxidant properties. In vitro, the scaffold also demonstrated excellent hemocompatibility and biocompatibility. Furthermore, in vivo wound contraction, histological, and micro-CT investigations show complete wound healing and the formation of new skin tissue in a male Balb/c mouse model treated with the scaffold. The antioxidant properties of the sericin protein and SSD-based triple-layered nanofibrous scaffold protect the wound from bacterial infection and improve wound healing in a mouse model. The current study develops a dual protein-based nanofibrous scaffold with antibacterial and antioxidant properties as a promising wound dressing material.

Abstract
Constructing lightweight and porous adsorbents which can effectively remove dye contaminants is of great significance in the field of the sewage treatment. In this work, anisotropic cellulose nanofibril (CNF) composite sponges assisted by rectorites are fabricated through directional freeze-drying. The resulted composite sponge exhibits the superior saturated adsorption capacity and removal efficiency of 120.0 mg/g and 96.1% for methylene blue (MB), respectively, which is better than the pure CNF sponge and rectorite powders. This is attributed to the strong electrostatic interaction between CNFs and MB, and good cation exchange property of rectorites inside the three-dimensional (3D) highly porous composite sponge. The MB adsorption process of the composite sponge fits to the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and the Langmuir isotherm model well, which is affected by both boundary layer and intraparticle diffusion, resulting in a theoretical maximum adsorption capacity of 214.6 mg/g. Moreover, it also possesses a selective adsorption capacity for anionic and cationic dyes, which is expected to realize the separation treatment of different dyes according to actual application requirements.

Abstract
Multifunctional hydrogel as a sealant or wound dressing with high adhesiveness and excellent antibacterial activity is highly desirable in clinical applications. In this contribution, one-step synthetic hydrogel based on quaternized chitosan (QCS), tannic acid (TA), and ferric iron (Fe(III)) is developed for skin incision closure and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)-infected wound healing. In this hydrogel system, the ionic bonds and hydrogen bonds between QCS and TA form the main backbone of hydrogel, the metal coordination bonds between TA and Fe(III) (catechol-Fe) endow hydrogel with excellent adhesiveness and (near-infrared light) NIR-responsive photothermal property, and these multiple dynamic physical crosslinks enable QCS/TA/Fe hydrogel with flexible self-healing ability and injectability. Moreover, QCS/TA/Fe hydrogel possesses superior antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hemostasis, and biocompatibility. Also, it is safe for vital organs. The data from the mouse skin incision model and infected full-thickness skin wound model presented the high wound closure effectiveness and acceleration of the wound healing process by this multifunctional hydrogel, highlighting its great potential in wound management.

Abstract
Cotton gauze is a widely used topical hemostatic material for bleeding control, but its high blood absorption capacity tends to cause extra blood loss. Therefore, development of rapid hemostatic cotton gauze with less blood loss is of great significance. Here, we develop an efficient hemostatic cotton gauze whose surface is slightly modified with a catechol compound which features a flexible long hydrophobic alkyl chain terminated with a catechol group. Its hemostatic performance in animal injuries is superior to standard cotton gauze and Combat GauzeTM. Its biosafety is similar to cotton gauze and rebleeding hardly occurs when the gauze is removed. Here, we show its hemostatic capability is attributable to the rapid formation of big and thick primary erythrocyte clots, due to its effective controlling of blood movement through blocking effect from tissue adhesion by catechol, blood wicking in cotton, and the hydrophobic effect from long alkyl chains.

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
With the "many-headed" slime mold Physarum polycelphalum having been voted the unicellular organism of the year 2021 by the German Society of Protozoology, we are reminded that a large part of nature's huge variety of life forms is easily overlooked - both by the general public and researchers alike. Indeed, whereas several animals such as mussels or spiders have already inspired many scientists to create novel materials with glue-like properties, there is much more to discover in the flora and fauna. Here, we provide an overview of naturally occurring slimy substances with adhesive properties and categorize them in terms of the main chemical motifs that convey their stickiness, i.e., carbohydrate-, protein-, and glycoprotein-based biological glues. Furthermore, we highlight selected recent developments in the area of material design and functionalization that aim at making use of such biological compounds for novel applications in medicine - either by conjugating adhesive motifs found in nature to biological or synthetic macromolecules or by synthetically creating (multi-)functional materials, which combine adhesive properties with additional, problem-specific (and sometimes tunable) features.

Abstract
Bacterial infection has become one of the most challenges for wound healing, which causes serious inflammatory response and delays the healing process. Herein, a novel sponge with excellent biocompatible, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties based on quaternized cellulose (QC), sodium alginate (SA) and Zn2+ was reported. The existence of physical interactions, such as electrostatic interaction, chelation and hydrogen bonding endowed the sponges with enhanced mechanical property. The composite sponges exhibited outstanding biocompatibility and hemostatic efficiency due to the compatible nature of the component and physical cross-linking, as well as superior antibacterial property benefited from the synergistic effects of steady Zn2+ release and quaternary ammonium group. In vivo investigation validated that the enhanced antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effect of the sponges, which significantly promoted wound closure and the reconstruction of skin tissue through epithelial regeneration, collagen deposition and mitigating inflammatory cell infiltration. Overall, the novel sponge demonstrated great potentials in bacteria-associated wound management.

Abstract
Wounds are one of the most common health issues, and the cost of wound care and healing has continued to increase over the past decade. The first step in wound healing is haemostasis, and the development of haemostatic materials that aid wound healing has accelerated in the past 5 years. Numerous haemostatic materials have been fabricated, composed of different active components (including natural polymers, synthetic polymers, silicon-based materials and metal-containing materials) and in various forms (including sponges, hydrogels, nanofibres and particles). In this Review, we provide an overview of haemostatic materials in wound healing, focusing on their chemical design and operation. We describe the physiological process of haemostasis to elucidate the principles that underpin the design of haemostatic wound dressings. We also highlight the advantages and limitations of the different active components and forms of haemostatic materials. The main challenges and future directions in the development of haemostatic materials for wound healing are proposed.

Abstract
In this study, ginger residue from juice production was evaluated as a raw material resource for preparation of nanofiber hydrogels with multifunctional properties for advanced wound dressing applications. Alkali treatment was applied to adjust the chemical composition of ginger fibers followed by TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical)-mediated oxidation prior to nanofiber isolation. The effect of alkali treatment on hydrogel properties assembled through vacuum filtration without addition of any chemical cross-linker was evaluated. An outstanding absorption ability of 6200% combined with excellent mechanical properties, tensile strength of 2.1 ± 0.2 MPa, elastic modulus of 15.3 ± 0.3 MPa, and elongation at break of 25.1%, was achieved without alkali treatment. Furthermore, the absorption capacity was tunable by applying alkali treatment at different concentrations and by adjusting the hydrogel grammage. Cytocompatibility evaluation of the hydrogels showed no significant effect on human fibroblast proliferation in vitro. Ginger essential oil was used to functionalize the hydrogels by providing antimicrobial activity, furthering their potential as a multifunctional wound dressing.

Abstract
Nanocelluloses (NCs), with their remarkable characteristics, have proven to be one of the most promising "green" materials of our times and have received special attention from researchers in nanomaterials. A diversity of new functional materials with a wide range of biomedical applications has been designed based on the most desirable properties of NCs, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, and their special physicochemical properties. In this context and under the pressure of rapid development of this field, it is imperative to synthesize the successes and the new requirements in a comprehensive review. The first part of this work provides a brief review of the characteristics of the NCs (cellulose nanocrystals-CNC, cellulose nanofibrils-CNF, and bacterial nanocellulose-BNC), as well as of the main functional materials based on NCs (hydrogels, nanogels, and nanocomposites). The second part presents an extensive review of research over the past five years on promising pharmaceutical and medical applications of nanocellulose-based materials, which have been discussed in three important areas: drug-delivery systems, materials for wound-healing applications, as well as tissue engineering. Finally, an in-depth assessment of the in vitro and in vivo cytotoxicity of NCs-based materials, as well as the challenges related to their biodegradability, is performed.

Abstract
Electrospinning is a method which produces various nanofiber scaffolds for different tissues was attractive for researchers. Nanofiber scaffolds could be made from several biomaterials and polymers. Quality and virtues of final scaffolds depend on used biomaterials (even about single substance, the origin is effective), additives (such as some molecules, ions, drugs, and inorganic materials), electrospinning parameter (voltage, injection speed, temperature, …), etc. In addition to its benefits, which makes it more attractive is the possibility of modifications. Common biomaterials in bone tissue engineering such as poly-caprolactone (PCL), hydroxyapatite (HAp), and their important features, electrospinning nanofibers were widely studied. Related investigations indicate the critical role of even small parameters (like the concentration of PCL or HAp) in final product properties. These changes also, cause deference in cell proliferation, adhesion, differentiation, and in vivo repair process. In this review was focussed on PCL/HAp based nanofibers and additives that researchers used for scaffold improvement. Then, reviewing properties of gained nanofibers, their effect on cell behaviour, and finally, their valency in bone tissue engineering studies (in vitro and in vivo).

Abstract
Polymeric nanofibrous scaffolds provide fine-tuned structures with inter-connecting pores resembling the natural extracellular matrix (ECM) in tissues, and show good potential in assisting the creation of artificial functional tissue. Additional application of growth factors helps to regulate the cellular behaviors and tissue assembly in the scaffolds, which eases the healing process. In this study, we synthesized an electrospun polymer scaffold system enriched with nanoparticles containing growth factors for accelerated healing of diabetic wounds. BSA nanoparticles were synthesized by cross-linking with PEG aldehyde. To free the amino group of BSA, heparin was conjugated by EDC/NHS chemistry. The angiogenic growth factors bFGF and VEGF were bound to heparin by electrostatic interaction. These nanoparticles were adsorbed on to electrospun collagen/PLGA/chitosan nanofibers. The synthesized nanofiber system was evaluated in vitro for its cell viability and proliferation. In vivo experiments conducted in a streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice model showed accelerated wound healing. The excellent healing efficiency of this ECM-mimicking nanofiber scaffold makes it a great candidate for therapeutic application in diabetic wounds.

Abstract
An antimicrobial supramolecular assembly (ASA) is conspicuous in biomedical applications. Among the alternatives to overcome microbial resistance to antibiotics and drugs, ASAs, including antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and polymers (APs), provide formulations with optimal antimicrobial activity and acceptable toxicity. AMPs and APs have been delivered by a variety of carriers such as nanoparticles, coatings, multilayers, hydrogels, liposomes, nanodisks, lyotropic lipid phases, nanostructured lipid carriers, etc. They have similar mechanisms of action involving adsorption to the cell wall, penetration across the cell membrane, and microbe lysis. APs, however, offer the advantage of cheap synthetic procedures, chemical stability, and improved adsorption (due to multipoint attachment to microbes), as compared to the expensive synthetic routes, poor yield, and subpar in vivo stability seen in AMPs. We review recent advances in polymer-based antimicrobial assemblies involving AMPs and APs.

Abstract
Chitin and chitosan have been extensively used as wound dressings because of their special functions to promote wound healing. However, there was little focus on the effects of the degree of acetylation (DA) on wound healing. In this work, the regenerated chitin nonwoven fabrics with DA values of 90, 71, 60, and 42% were prepared, and the morphology and physical performances of the fabrics were characterized. Moreover, the effects of DA of the chitin nonwoven fabrics on wound recovery were studied with a full-thickness skin defect model in rats. In vitro experiments indicated that the chitin nonwoven fabrics exhibited good biocompatibility and blood compatibility and a low blood-clotting index (BCI). In vivo experiments revealed that the chitin nonwoven fabrics could accelerate wound healing more effectively than gauze by promoting re-epithelialization and collagen deposition as well as by stimulating neovascularization. The results of the wound healing process showed that DA of the chitin nonwoven fabrics had a profound effect on promoting wound healing. Notably, the regenerated chitin nonwoven fabrics with 71% DA significantly improved the wound healing compared to the commercial wound dressing Algoplaque film. Therefore, the regenerated chitin nonwoven fabrics are promising candidates for wound healing.

Abstract
The development of a rapid and effective hemostatic dressing is highly desired in the treatment of hemorrhagic wounds. In this study, sponges with Janus character are developed using cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) that exhibit materials facets of different wettability characteristics using heterogeneous mixing and freeze-drying. The bonding of the interface between the hydrophilic and hydrophobic facets is achieved by using interpenetrating chemical cross-linking between CNFs and organosilanes. The hydrophilic layer absorbs water from blood and works synergistically with the inherent hemostatic chitosan-rich complementary layer to accelerate blood clotting, displaying both active and passive hemostatic mechanisms. The hydrophobic layer prevents blood penetration into the construct and exerts proper pressure on the wound. Compared with the hydrophilic control samples and commercial gauzes, the Janus sponges can achieve effective bleeding control with nearly 50% less blood loss in a femoral artery injury model and prolong the survival time in a carotid artery injury model. Compared with the only hydrophilic layer, the time to hemostasis of Janus sponge are reduced from 165 ± 20 to 131 ± 26 s in femoral artery injury model and from 102 ± 21 to 83 ± 15 s in liver femoral artery injury model.

Abstract
An uncontrolled hemorrhage can easily lead to death during surgery and military operations. Despite the significant advances in hemostatic research, there is still an urgent and increasing need for safer and more effective hemostatic materials. Recently, nanotechnologies have been receiving increasing interest owing to their unique advantages and have been propelling the developement of hemostatic materials. This review summarizes the fundamentals of hemostasis and emphasizes the recent developments regarding hemorrhage-related hemostatic nanotechnologies. In terms of external accessible hemorrhage management, natural and synthetic polymers and inorganic components that have been used in traditional hemostats provide novel nanoscale solutions. Regarding internal noncompressible hemorrhage management, current research endeavors are dedicated to the development of substitutes for blood components, and nanoformulated hemostatic drugs. This review also briefly discusses the main and persistent problems of hemostatic nanomaterials, including safety concerns and clinical translation challenges. This review is hoped to provide critical insight into hemostatic nanomaterial development.

Abstract
The development of a hemostatic sponge that can be used for treating both arterial hemorrhage and non-compressible bleeding remains a challenge. In this work, we propose the fabrication of a robust hemostatic sponge by a hydrogen bond strengthening and in situ bubble expanding strategy in thermo-initiation polymerization. A thickening agent, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), is incorporated into a hydrogen bonding N-acryloyl-2-glycine (ACG) monomer and an initiator, and vortexing generates air bubbles in the viscous liquid. Heating initiates fast polymerization, and meanwhile aids in expanding of bubbles, which results in the fixation of bubbles throughout the network, and the formation of porous hydrogels. Further lyophilization of the foaming hydrogels leads to the final generation of PACG/CMC sponges with robust compressive strengths due to the hydrogen bonding interactions of PACG. PACG/CMC sponges are shown to demonstrate a tunable liquid absorption ability, in vitro hemostatic ability, better hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. In a rat liver injury model and a femoral artery injury model, the PACG/CMC sponge can significantly reduce the bleeding time and blood loss compared with gauze and commercial gelatin sponge because of the high blood absorption ability and effective concentration of blood coagulation factors. This PACG sponge holds promising potential as a hemostatic agent applicable in an emergency.

Abstract
Hemostatic materials based on collagen and chitin are commonly assessed with regard to their topical absorbability and bioactivity. However, their clinical application faces challenges such as relatively long hemostatic and wound healing times, single function, as well as wound bleeding in patients with blood diseases. Herein, a novel bio-inspired "cotton-like" collagen aggregate/chitin based biomaterial for rapid hemostatic and tissue repair (V-3D-Ag-col) was fabricated by a specific gradient-removal solvent approach. Significantly, for the first time, an advanced collagen aggregate (Ag-col) composed of typical D-periodic cross-striated collagen fibrils and thick collagen fiber bundles was used instead of traditional collagen molecules (Col) to construct a hemostatic material. The target material showed a biomimetic 3D microstructure and "cotton-like" appearance, as expected, which were conducive to platelet adhesion and aggregation. The fabricated V-3D-Ag-col exhibited superior thermo-stability, hemostatic activity and biodegradability. More importantly, V-3D-Ag-col could significantly promote cell growth and proliferation. Further, V-3D-Ag-col could accelerate the wound healing process better than the same material based on conventional collagen (V-3D-Col). In consequence, V-3D-Ag-col has the potential to become a new generation of collagen-absorbable functional hemostatic materials. Furthermore, Ag-col can replace the currently available conventional collagen materials as raw materials for the new generation of collagen-based biomedical materials.

Abstract
Scaffolds based on nanocellulose (NC) have crucial applications in tissue engineering (TE) owing to the biocompatibility, water absorption, water retention, optical transparency, and chemo-mechanical properties. In this review, we summarize the scaffolds based on nanocellulose, including nanocrystalline cellulose and nanofibrillated cellulose. We compare four representative methods to prepare NC-based scaffolds, containing electrospinning, freeze-drying, 3D printing, and solvent casting. We outline the characteristics of scaffolds obtained by different methods. Our focus is on the applications of NC-based scaffolds to repair, improve or replace damaged tissues and organs, including skin, blood vessel, nerve, skeletal muscle, heart, liver, and ophthalmology. NC-based scaffolds are attractive materials for regeneration of different tissues and organs due to the remarkable features. Finally, we propose the challenges and potentials of NC-based TE scaffolds.
