Abstract
Periodontitis, a common chronic inflammatory disease caused by pathogenic bacteria, can be treated with diverse biomaterials by loading drugs, cytokines or proteins. However, these biomaterials often show unsatisfactory therapeutic efficiency due to their poor adhesion, short residence time in the wet and dynamic oral cavity and emerging drug resistance. Here we report a wet-responsive methacrylated gelatin (GelMA)-stabilized co-enzyme polymer poly(α-lipoic acid) (PolyLA)-based elastic patch with water-induced adhesion and softening features. In PolyLA-GelMA, the multiple covalent and hydrogen-bonding crosslinking between PolyLA and GelMA prevent PolyLA depolymerization and slow down the dissociation of PolyLA in water, allowing durable adhesion to oral periodontal tissue and continuous release of LA-based bioactive small molecule in periodontitis wound without resorting external drugs. Compared with the undifferentiated adhesion behavior of traditional adhesives, this wet-responsive patch demonstrates a favorable periodontal pocket insertion ability due to its non-adhesion and rigidity in dry environment. In vitro studies reveal that PolyLA-GelMA patch exhibits satisfactory wet tissue adhesion, antibacterial, blood compatibility and ROS scavenging abilities. In the model of rat periodontitis, the PolyLA-GelMA patch inhibits alveolar bone resorption and accelerates the periodontitis healing by regulating the inflammatory microenvironment. This biomacromolecule-stabilized coenzyme polymer patch provides a new option to promote periodontitis treatment.

Abstract
Developing injectable antiswelling and high-strength bioactive hydrogels with wet tissue adhesiveness and a rapid gelling process to meet the requirements for rapid hemostasis, sutureless wound closure, and scar-free repair of infected skin wounds continues to have ongoing challenges. Herein, injectable, antibacterial, and antioxidant hydrogel adhesives based on poly(citric acid-co-polyethylene glycol)-g-dopamine and amino-terminated Pluronic F127 (APF) micelles loaded with astragaloside IV (AS) are prepared. The H2O2/horseradish peroxidase (HRP) system is used to cause cross-linking of the hydrogel network through oxidative coupling between catechol groups and chemical cross-linking between the catechol group and the amino group. The hydrogels exhibit a rapid gelling process, high mechanical strength, an antiswelling effect, good antioxidant property, H2O2 release behavior, and degradability. In addition, the hydrogels present good wet tissue adhesiveness, high bursting pressure, excellent antibacterial activity, long-term sustained release of AS, and good biocompatibility. The hydrogels perform good hemostasis on mouse liver, rat liver, and rabbit femoral vein bleeding models and achieve much better closure and healing of skin incisions than biomedical glue and surgical sutures. Furthermore, the hydrogel dressing significantly improved the scar-free repair of MRSA-infected full thickness skin defect wounds by modulating inflammation, regulating the ratio of collagen I/III, and improving the vascularization and granulation tissue formation. Thus, AS-loaded hydrogels show huge potential as multifunctional dressings for in vivo hemostasis, sutureless wound closure, and scar-free repair of infected skin wounds.

Abstract
Although hemostatic powders have excellent adaptability for irregular and inaccessible wounds, their hemostasis for continuous bleeding or bleeding wounds of non-compressible organs remains a critical challenge. Herein, a series of benzeneboronic acid-modified sodium alginate/catechol-modified quaternized chitosan (SA-BA/QCS-C, SBQCC) powders is developed by borate ester crosslinking for non-compressible hemorrhage control. SBQCC powders possess remarkable tissue adhesion, rapid self-gelation, good cytocompatibility and antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coil. The blood coagulation assays show that SBQCC powders display excellent blood clotting ability due to the synergistic effect of SA-BA and QCS-C. The SBQCC2 powder with the SA-BA to QCS-C mass ratio of 5 to 3 has the greatest effect on the blood-clotting rate. Upon depositing SBQCC2 powder to bleeding wounds of rabbit liver, the powder can absorb a large amount of blood and form a stable hydrogel physical barrier at the bleeding wounds in situ to achieve non-pressing rapid hemostasis. The SBQCC2 powder also has good biocompatibility and can be degraded in vivo. Altogether, the SBQCC powders can be a promising candidate for rapid hemostasis, and these findings may provide a new perspective for improving the hemostatic efficiency of the hemostatic powder in biomedical fields.
