Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2201661.

Abstract
The bone immune microenvironment (BIM) regulates bone regeneration and affects the prognosis of fractures. However, there is currently no effective strategy that can precisely modulate macrophage polarization to improve BIM for bone regeneration. Herein, a hybridized biphasic bionic periosteum, inspired by the BIM and functional structure of the natural periosteum, is presented. The gel phase is composed of genipin-crosslinked carboxymethyl chitosan and collagen self-assembled hybrid hydrogels, which act as the "dam" to intercept IL-4 released during the initial burst from the bionic periosteum fiber phase, thus maintaining the moderate inflammatory response of M1 macrophages for mesenchymal stem cell recruitment and vascular sprouting at the acute fracture. With the degradation of the gel phase, released IL-4 cooperates with collagen to promote the polarization towards M2 macrophages, which reconfigure the local microenvironment by secreting PDGF-BB and BMP-2 to improve vascular maturation and osteogenesis twofold. In rat cranial defect models, the controlled regulation of the BIM is validated with the temporal transition of the inflammatory/anti-inflammatory process to achieve faster and better bone defect repair. This strategy provides a drug delivery system that constructs a coordinated BIM, so as to break through the predicament of the contradiction between immune response and bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The increasing preference for minimally invasive surgery requires novel soft materials that are injectable, with rapid self-healing abilities, and biocompatible. Here, by utilizing the synergetic effect of hydrophobic interaction and quadruple hydrogen bonding, an injectable supramolecular hydrogel with excellent self-healing ability was synthesized. A unique ABA triblock copolymer was designed containing a central poly(ethylene oxide) block and terminal poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) block, with ureido pyrimidinone (UPy) moieties randomly incorporated (termed MA-UPy-PEO-UPy-MA). The PMMA block could offer a hydrophobic microenvironment for UPy moieties in water and thus boost the corresponding quadruple hydrogen bonding interaction of Upy-Upy dimers. Owing to the synergetic effect of hydrophobicity and quadruple hydrogen bonding interaction, the obtained MA-UPy-PEO-UPy-MA hydrogel exhibited excellent self-healing properties, and injectable capability, as well as superior mechanical strength, and therefore, it holds great promise in tissue engineering applications, including in cell support and drug release.
