Abstract
Hydrogels resemble natural extracellular matrices and have been widely studied for biomedical applications. Nano-crosslinked dynamic hydrogels combine the injectability and self-healing property of dynamic hydrogels with the versatility of nanomaterials and exhibit unique advantages. The incorporation of nanomaterials as crosslinkers can improve the mechanical properties (strength, injectability, and shear-thinning properties) of hydrogels by reinforcing the skeleton and endowing them with multifunctionality. Nano-crosslinked functional hydrogels that can respond to external stimuli (such as pH, heat, light, and electromagnetic stimuli) and have photothermal properties, antimicrobial properties, stone regeneration abilities, or tissue repair abilities have been constructed through reversible covalent crosslinking strategies and physical crosslinking strategies. The possible cytotoxicity of the incorporated nanomaterials can be reduced. Nanomaterial hydrogels show excellent biocompatibility and can facilitate cell proliferation and differentiation for biomedical applications. This review introduces different nano-crosslinked dynamic hydrogels in the medical field, from fabrication to application. In this review, nanomaterials for dynamic hydrogel fabrication, such as metals and metallic oxides, nanoclays, carbon-based nanomaterials, black phosphorus (BP), polymers, and liposomes, are discussed. We also introduce the dynamic crosslinking method commonly used for nanodynamic hydrogels. Finally, the medical applications of nano-crosslinked hydrogels are presented. We hope that this summary will help researchers in the related research fields quickly understand nano-crosslinked dynamic hydrogels to develop more preparation strategies and promote their development and application.

Abstract
Due to a lack of sufficient blood supply and unique physicochemical properties, the treatment of injured cartilage is laborious and needs an efficient strategy. Unfortunately, most of the current therapeutic approaches are, but not completely, unable to restore the function of injured cartilage. Tissue engineering-based modalities are an alternative option to reconstruct the injured tissue. Considering the unique structure and consistency of cartilage tissue (osteochondral junction), it is mandatory to apply distinct biomaterials with unique properties slightly different from scaffolds used for soft tissues. PCL is extensively used for the fabrication of fine therapeutic scaffolds to accelerate the restorative process. Thermosensitive PCL hydrogels with distinct chemical compositions have paved the way for sophisticated cartilage regeneration. This review aimed to collect recent findings regarding the application of PCL in hydrogels blended with natural, synthetic materials in the context of cartilage healing.

Abstract
Since cartilage has a limited capacity for self-regeneration, treating cartilage degenerative disorders is a long-standing difficulty in orthopedic medicine. Researchers have scrutinized cartilage tissue regeneration to handle the deficiency of cartilage restoration capacity. This investigation proposed to compose an innovative nanocomposite biomaterial that enhances growth factor delivery to the injured cartilage site. Here, we describe the design and development of the biocompatible poly(lactide-co-glycolide) acid-collagen/poly(lactide-co-glycolide)-poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA-collagen/PLGA-PEG-PLGA) nanocomposite hydrogel containing transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). PLGA-PEG-PLGA nanoparticles were employed as a delivery system embedding TGF-β1 as an articular cartilage repair therapeutic agent. This study evaluates various physicochemical aspects of fabricated scaffolds by 1HNMR, FT-IR, SEM, BET, and DLS methods. The physicochemical features of the developed scaffolds, including porosity, density, degradation, swelling ratio, mechanical properties, morphologies, BET, ELISA, and cytotoxicity were assessed. The cell viability was investigated with the MTT test. Chondrogenic differentiation was assessed via Alcian blue staining and RT-PCR. In real-time PCR testing, the expression of Sox-9, collagen type II, and aggrecan genes was monitored. According to the results, human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) exhibited high adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation on PLGA-collagen/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGFβ1 nanocomposite scaffolds compared to the control groups. SEM images displayed suitable cell adhesion and distribution of hDPSCs throughout the scaffolds. RT-PCR assay data displayed that TGF-β1 loaded PLGA-PEG-PLGA nanoparticles puts forward chondroblast differentiation in hDPSCs through the expression of chondrogenic genes. The findings revealed that PLGA-collagen/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 nanocomposite hydrogel can be utilized as a supportive platform to support hDPSCs differentiation by implementing specific physio-chemical features.

Abstract
The need for biodegradable and biocompatible polymers is growing quickly, particularly in the biomedical and environmental industries. Cellulose acetate, a natural polysaccharide, can be taken from plants and modified with polycaprolactone to improve its characteristics for a number of uses, including biomedical applications and food packaging. Cellulose acetate-g-polycaprolactone was prepared by a three-step reaction: First, polymerization of ε-caprolactone via ring-opening polymerization (ROP) reaction using 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and functionalization of polycaprolactone(PCL) by introducing NCO on the hydroxyl end of the HEMA-PCL using hexamethyl lenediisocyanate(HDI) were carried out. Then, the NCO–HEMA-PCL was grafted onto cellulose acetate (using the “grafting to” method). The polycaprolactone grafted cellulose acetate was confirmed by FTIR, the thermal characteristics of the copolymers were investigated by DSC and TGA, and the hydrophobicity was analyzed via water CA measurement. Introducing NCO-PCL to cellulose acetate increased the thermal stability. The contact angle of the unreacted PCL was higher than that of cellulose acetate-g-PCL, and it increased when the chain length increased. The CA-g-PCL50, CA-g-PCL100, and CA-g-PCL200 showed very high inhibition zones for all three bacteria tested (E. coli, S. aureus, and P. aeruginosa).

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic and inflammatory disease with no effective regenerative treatments to date. The therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) remains to be fully explored. Intra-articular injection of these cells promotes cartilage protection and regeneration by paracrine signaling and differentiation into chondrocytes. However, joints display a harsh avascular environment for these cells upon injection. This phenomenon prompted researchers to develop suitable injectable materials or systems for MSCs to enhance their function and survival. Among them, hydrogels can absorb a large amount of water and maintain their 3D structure but also allow incorporation of bioactive agents or small molecules in their matrix that maximize the action of MSCs. These materials possess advantageous cartilage-like features such as collagen or hyaluronic acid moieties that interact with MSC receptors, thereby promoting cell adhesion. This review provides an up-to-date overview of the progress and opportunities of MSCs entrapped into hydrogels, combined with bioactive/small molecules to improve the therapeutic effects in OA treatment.

Abstract
In the current study, a novel nanocomposite hydrogel scaffold comprising of natural-based gelatin and synthetic-based (poly D, L (lactide-co-glycolide) -b- poly (ethylene glycol)-b- poly D, L (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA-PEG-PLGA) triblock copolymer was developed and loaded with transforming growth factor- β1 (TGF-β1). Synthesized scaffolds' chemical structure was examined by 1H NMR and ATR-FTIR. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed particle size and morphology of the prepared nanoparticles as well as the scaffolds. The morphology analysis revealed a porous interconnected structure throughout the scaffold with a pore size dimension of about 202.05 µm. The swelling behavior, in vitro degradation, mechanical properties, density, and porosity were also evaluated. Phalloidin/DAPI staining was utilized for confirming the extended cytoskeleton of the chondrocytes. Alcian blue staining was conducted to determine cartilaginous matrix sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) synthesis. Eventually, over a period of 21 days, a real-time RT-PCR analysis was applied to measure the mRNA expression of chondrogenic marker genes, type-II collagen, SOX 9, and aggrecan, in hDPSCs cultured for up to 21 days to study the influence of gelatin/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 hydrogels on hDPSCs. The findings of the cell-encapsulating hydrogels analysis suggested that the adhesion, viability, and chondrogenic differentiation of hDPSCs improved by gelatin/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 nanocomposite hydrogels. These data supported the conclusion that gelatin/PLGA-PEG-PLGA-TGF-β1 nanocomposite hydrogels render the features that allow thein vitrofunctionality of encapsulated hDPSCs and hence can contribute the basis for new effective strategies for the treatment of cartilage injuries.

Abstract
Among oral tissues, the periodontium is permanently subjected to mechanical forces resulting from chewing, mastication, or orthodontic appliances. Molecularly, these movements induce a series of subsequent signaling processes, which are embedded in the biological concept of cellular mechanotransduction (MT). Cell and tissue structures, ranging from the extracellular matrix (ECM) to the plasma membrane, the cytosol and the nucleus, are involved in MT. Dysregulation of the diverse, fine-tuned interaction of molecular players responsible for transmitting biophysical environmental information into the cell's inner milieu can lead to and promote serious diseases, such as periodontitis or oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Therefore, periodontal integrity and regeneration is highly dependent on the proper integration and regulation of mechanobiological signals in the context of cell behavior. Recent experimental findings have increased the understanding of classical cellular mechanosensing mechanisms by both integrating exogenic factors such as bacterial gingipain proteases and newly discovered cell-inherent functions of mechanoresponsive co-transcriptional regulators such as the Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) or the nuclear cytoskeleton. Regarding periodontal MT research, this review offers insights into the current trends and open aspects. Concerning oral regenerative medicine or weakening of periodontal tissue diseases, perspectives on future applications of mechanobiological principles are discussed.
