Abstract
Silk fibroin (SF) from the silkworm Bombyx mori is a fibrous protein identified as a widely suitable biomaterial due to its biocompatibility, tunable degradation, and mechanical strength. Various modifications of SF protein can give SF fibers new properties and functions, broadening their applications in textile and biomedical industries. A diverse array of functional modifications on various forms of SF has been reported. In order to provide researchers with a more systematic understanding of the types of functional modifications of SF protein, as well as the corresponding applications, we comprehensively review the different types of functional modifications, including transgenic modification, modifications with chemical groups or biologically active substance, cross-linking and copolymerization without chemical reactions, their specific modification methods and applications. Furthermore, recent applications of SF in various medical biomaterials are briefly discussed.

Abstract
The transdermal drug delivery system is an exceptionally safe and well-tolerable therapeutic approach that has immense potential for delivering active components against bone-related pathologies. However, its use is limited in the current clinical practices due to the low skin permeability of most active drugs in the formulation. Thus, innovations in the methodologies of skin permeation enhancement techniques are suggested to overcome this limitation. Although various transdermal drug delivery systems are studied to date, there are insufficient studies comparing the therapeutic efficacy of transdermal delivery systems to oral delivery systems. Thus, creating a decision-making dilemma between oral or transdermal therapies. Therefore, a timely review is inevitable to develop a platform for future researchers to develop next-generation transdermal drug delivery strategies against skeletal diseases that must be convenient and cost-effective for the patients with improved therapeutic efficacy. Here, we will outline the most recent strategies that can overcome the choice limitation of the drug and enhance the transdermal adsorption of various types of drugs to treat bone disorders. For the first time, in this review paper, we will highlight the preclinical and clinical studies on the different transdermal delivery methods. Thus, providing insight into the current therapeutic approaches and suggesting new directions for the advancements in transdermal drug delivery systems against bone disorders.

Abstract
Bioactive hydrogels based on naturally-derived polymers are of great interest for regenerative medicine applications. Among naturally-derived polymers, silk fibroin has been extensively explored as a biomaterial for tissue engineering due to its unique mechanical properties. Here, we demonstrate the rapid gelation of cell-laden silk fibroin hydrogels by visible light-induced crosslinking using riboflavin as a photo-initiator, in presence of an electron acceptor. The gelation kinetics were monitored by in situ photo-rheometry. Gelation was achieved in minutes and could be tuned owing to its direct proportionality to the electron acceptor concentration. The concentration of the electron acceptor did not affect the elastic modulus of the hydrogels, which could be altered by varying the polymer content. Further, the biocompatible riboflavin photo-initiator combined with sodium persulfate allowed for the encapsulation of cells within silk fibroin hydrogels. To confirm the cytocompatibility of the silk fibroin formulations, three cell types (articular cartilage-derived progenitor cells, mesenchymal stem cells and dental-pulp-derived stem cells) were encapsulated within the hydrogels, which associated with a viability >80% for all cell types. These results demonstrated that fast gelation of silk fibroin can be achieved by combining it with riboflavin and electron acceptors, which results in a hydrogel that can be used in tissue engineering and cell delivery applications.

Abstract
Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Antibiotics, particularly clindamycin and erythromycin, are used for the treatment of acne vulgaris. However, emerging antibiotic-resistant strains have been an important problem. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency and safety of a novel water-soluble herbal acne patch (WHAP) compared with the hydrocolloid acne patch (HAP) in mild to moderate inflammatory acne patients. The randomized, assessor-blind controlled, intra-individual split-face study was performed on 49 acne patients. The clinical outcomes were evaluated on day 2, 4, 7, 9, and 11 of treatment. It was shown that the median time to resolution of the inflammatory acne treated with WHAP was shorter than HAP with a statistically significant difference (WHAP was 4 days, whereas HAP was 6 days) (P value <.001). Moreover, WHAP had a more significant decrease in the rate of inflammatory diameter, erythema scores (by clinical and colorimetry), and a more increase in the rate of lightness scores (by colorimetry) than HAP (P value <.05). No adverse effects were reported in both groups. It is safe to use WHAP as an alternative treatment for inflammatory acne.

Abstract
Wounds are among the most common skin conditions, displaying a large etiological diversity and being characterized by different degrees of severity. Wound healing is a complex process that involves multiple steps such as inflammation, proliferation and maturation and ends with scar formation. Since ancient times, a widely used option for treating skin wounds are plant- based treatments which currently have become the subject of modern pharmaceutical formulations. Triterpenes with tetracyclic and pentacyclic structure are extensively studied for their implication in wound healing as well as to determine their molecular mechanisms of action. The current review aims to summarize the main results of in vitro, in vivo and clinical studies conducted on lupane, ursane, oleanane, dammarane, lanostane and cycloartane type triterpenes as potential wound healing treatments.

Abstract
In this study, 6-(6-aminohexyl) amino-6-deoxy-β-cyclodextrin-gellan gum complex hydrogel (HCD-GG) was developed to enhance the affinity of anti-inflammatory drug dexamethasone (Dx), improve chondrogenesis, and decrease the inflammatory response. The modified chemical structure was confirmed by NMR and FTIR. Mechanical and physicochemical properties were characterized by performing viscosity study, compression test, injection force test, swelling kinetic, weight loss, and morphological study. The release profile of the drug-loaded hydrogels was analyzed to confirm the affinity of the hydrophobic drugs and the matrix and characterize cumulative release. In vitro test was carried out with MTT assay, live/dead staining, glycosaminoglycan (GAGs) content, double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) content, morphological analysis, histology, and gene expression. In vivo experiment was conducted by implanting the samples under a subcutaneous area of SPD rat and cartilage defected rabbit model. The results displayed successfully synthesized HCD-GG. The gelation temperature of the modified hydrogels was decreased while the mechanical property was improved when the drug was loaded in the modified hydrogel. Swelling and degradation kinetics resulted in a higher level compared to the pristine GG but was a sufficient level to support drugs and cells. The affinity and release rate of the drug was higher in the HCD-GG group which shows an improved drug delivery system of the GG-based material. The microenvironment provided a suitable environment for cells to grow. Also, chondrogenesis was affected by the existence of Dx and microenvironment, resulting in higher expression levels of cartilage-related genes while the expression of the inflammation mediators decreased when the Dx was loaded. In vivo study showed an improved anti-inflammatory response in the drug-loaded hydrogel. Furthermore, the cartilage defected rabbit model showed an enhanced regenerative effect when the Dx@HCD-GG was implanted. These results suggest that HCD-GG and Dx@HCD-GG have the potential for cartilage regeneration along with multiple applications in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Cutaneous wound healing is a complex orchestrated process influenced by many endogenous and exogenous imbalances. The main goal of tissue regeneration in wound healing is to increase wound contraction and reduce scar formation, effectively to regenerate a new healthy epidermis and prevent scar contracture. Additionally, prevention, control and treatment of wound infections, particularly in burn wounds, is a vital strategy in the healing process. It was previously supposed that local application of sugar-based materials increases the chance of wound infection and delays wound healing. This review shows that topical application of sugar-based compounds has no negative effects on different wound types. Whereas, hyperglycaemia created by diabetes, stress or certain medications can act to impair wound healing. Therefore, this work was designed to review the recent studies that evaluated the role of sugar-based compounds on wound healing and to demonstrate in various cutaneous wound models how these compounds may be involved in healing. It also deals with different physio-pharmacologic conditions resulting in hyperglycaemia in different models of cutaneous wound healing in order to illustrate the role of endogenous glucose in wound healing and remodelling.

Abstract
The process of wound healing is often accompanied by bacterial infection or critical colonization, resulting in protracted inflammation, delayed reepithelization, and production of pungent odors. The malodor produced by these wounds may lower health-related quality of life and produce psychological discomfort and social isolation. Current management focuses on reducing bacterial activity within the wound site and absorbing malodorous gases. For example, charcoal-based materials have been incorporated into dressing for direct adsorption of the responsible gases. In addition, multiple topical agents, including silver, iodine, honey, sugar, and essential oils, have been suggested for incorporation into dressings in an attempt to control the underlying bacterial infection. This review describes options for controlling malodor in chronic wounds, the benefits and drawbacks of each topical agent, and their mode of action. We also discuss the use of subjective odor evaluation techniques to assess the efficacy of odor-controlling therapies. The perspectives of employing novel biomaterials and technologies for wound odor management are also presented.

Abstract
Silk fibroin can be made into various forms of biocompatible medical materials, including hydrogel due to its excellent properties. Here, we report a novel method for the preparation of electropolymerized silk fibroin hydrogel membrane (ESFHM), which is formed on a nanoporous film as a barrier using a homemade device at a higher DC voltage. Regenerated silk fibroin solution in Tris buffer (pH 6.55-7.55) was added into a reservoir with a negative charge, and the silk molecules migrated toward the positive charge at 80VDC, resulting in the formation of the ESFHM on the barrier film. Barrier film with a MWCO of 10 kDa is favourable to the formation of the ESFHM. Semi-transparent ESFHM with a swelling ratio of 1056.4% predominantly consisted of a mixture of β-sheets and α-helix crystalline structures. SEM studies revealed that the ESFHM consisted of a 3D mesh structure woven by a chain of silk fibroin nanoparticles with a size of approximately 30 nanometres, similar to a pearl necklace. In vitro studies indicated that the ESFHM was degradable and was sufficient for cell adhesion and growth. Thus, ESFHM is a promising candidate for loading bioactive protein and appropriate cells, as artificial skin or for use in transplantation.

Abstract
A sponge wound dressing comprising silk fibroin, N-(2-hydroxy)propyl-3-trimethyl ammonium chitosan chloride, and polyvinyl alcohol was developed for chronic wound healing. These composite sponges were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The composite sponge had a fluid uptake of 80% of its weight, and the water vapor transmission rate of 2974 ± 684 g/m2/day, indicating that the sponge could keep a moist environment around the wound bed. The Wistar rats were used to evaluate these composites for the treatment of chronic wounds. Wound healing was monitored through the macroscopic and immunological analyses. Although the wound area reduction rates were similar for the composite dressings compared to the non-woven fabrics containing wax-oil, the new composite dressings were found to be capable of improving the formation of blood vessels inside the wound beds by promoting the regrowth of skin tissues. Based on these results, using aqueous composite sponges in wound dressings, instead of oil-containing fabrics, promotes healing of chronic wounds in clinical applications.
