Abstract
Preventing bacterial infections is a crucial aspect of wound healing. There is an urgent need for multifunctional biomaterials without antibiotics to promote wound healing. In this study, we fabricated a guar gum (GG)-based nanocomposite hydrogel, termed GBTF, which exhibited photothermal antibacterial therapy for infected wound healing. The GBTF hydrogel formed a cross-linked network through dynamic borate/diol interactions between GG and borax, thereby exhibiting simultaneously self-healing, adaptable, and injectable properties. Additionally, tannic acid (TA)/Fe3+ nanocomplexes (NCs) were incorporated into the hydrogel to confer photothermal antibacterial properties. Under the irradiation of an 808 nm near-infrared laser, the TA/Fe3+ NCs in the hydrogel could rapidly generate heat, leading to the disruption of bacterial cell membranes and subsequent bacterial eradication. Furthermore, the hydrogels exhibited good cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility, making them a precandidate for preclinical and clinical applications. Finally, they could significantly promote bacteria-infected wound healing by reducing bacterial viability, accelerating collagen deposition, and promoting epithelial remodeling. Therefore, the multifunctional GBTF hydrogel, which was composed entirely of natural substances including guar gum, borax, and polyphenol/ferric ion NCs, showed great potential for regenerating infected skin wounds in clinical applications.

Abstract
In recent years, stimuli-responsive nanogels that can undergo suitable transitions under endogenous (e.g., pH, enzymes and reduction) or exogenous stimuli (e.g., temperature, light, and magnetic fields) for on-demand drug delivery, have received significant interest in biomedical fields, including drug delivery, tissue engineering, wound healing, and gene therapy due to their unique environment-sensitive properties. Furthermore, these nanogels have become very popular due to some of their special properties such as good hydrophilicity, high drug loading efficiency, flexibility, and excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability. In this article, the authors discuss current developments in the synthesis, properties, and biomedical applications of stimulus-responsive nanogels. In addition, the opportunities and challenges of nanogels for biomedical applications are also briefly predicted.

Abstract
Because of the multi-pathway antibacterial mechanisms of nanomaterials, they have received widespread attention in wound therapy. However, owing to the complexities of bacterial responses toward nanomaterials, antibacterial molecular mechanisms remain unclear, making it difficult to rationally design highly efficient antibacterial nanomaterials. Fortunately, molecular dynamics simulations and omics techniques have been used as effective methods to further investigate the action targets of nanomaterials. Therefore, the review comprehensively analyzes the antibacterial mechanisms of nanomaterials from the morphology-dependent antibacterial activity and physicochemical/optical properties-dependent antibacterial activity, which provided guidance for constructing excellently efficient and broad-spectrum antibacterial nanomaterials for wound therapy. More importantly, the main molecular action targets of nanomaterials from the membranes, DNA, energy metabolism pathways, oxidative stress defense systems, ribosomes, and biofilms are elaborated in detail. Furthermore, nanomaterials used in wound therapy are reviewed and discussed. Finally, future directions of nanomaterials from mechanisms to nanomedicine are further proposed.

Abstract
Biosensors are increasingly taking a more active role in health science. The current needs for the constant monitoring of biomedical signals, as well as the growing spending on public health, make it necessary to search for materials with a combination of properties such as biocompatibility, electroactivity, resorption, and high selectivity to certain bioanalytes. Conducting polymer hydrogels seem to be a very promising materials, since they present many of the necessary properties to be used as biosensors. Furthermore, their properties can be shaped and enhanced by designing conductive polymer hydrogel-based composites with more specific functionalities depending on the end application. This work will review the recent state of the art of different biological hydrogels for biosensor applications, discuss the properties of the different components alone and in combination, and reveal their high potential as candidate materials in the fabrication of all-organic diagnostic, wearable, and implantable sensor devices.

Abstract
Past studies have shown that the hot spring effect can promote wound healing. Mild thermal stimulation and metal ions can promote angiogenesis. In this study, the hot spring effect was simulated by thermosensitive PNIPAAm hydrogel loaded with copper sulfide nanoparticles. Heat stimulation could be generated through near-infrared irradiation, and copper ions solution could be pulsed. On the other hand, the CS/PVA nanofiber membrane was attached to the bottom of the hydrogel to simulate the extracellular matrix structure, thus improving the wound healing ability. The CS/PVA nanofiber membrane was prepared by electrospinning, and the appropriate prescription and process parameters were determined. The nanofiber membrane has uniform pore size, good water absorption and permeability. The poor mechanical properties of PNIPAAm hydrogel were improved by adding inorganic clay. The temperature of the hydrogel loaded with CuS nanoparticles reached 40 °C under near-infrared light irradiation for 20 min, and the release rate of Cu2+ reached 26.89%. The wound-healing rate of the rats in the combined application group reached 79.17% at 13 days, demonstrating superior results over the other control groups. Histological analyses show improved inflammatory response at the healed wound area. These results indicate that this combined application approach represents a promising wound treatment strategy.

Abstract
The implementation of nanotechnology to develop efficient antimicrobial systems has a significant impact on the prospects of the biomedical field. Nanogels are soft polymeric particles with an internally cross-linked structure, which behave as hydrogels and can be reversibly hydrated/dehydrated (swollen/shrunken) by the dispersing solvent and external stimuli. Their excellent properties, such as biocompatibility, colloidal stability, high water content, desirable mechanical properties, tunable chemical functionalities, and interior gel-like network for the incorporation of biomolecules, make them fascinating in the field of biological/biomedical applications. In this review, various approaches will be discussed and compared to the newly developed nanogel technology in terms of efficiency and applicability for determining their potential role in combating infections in the biomedical area including implant-associated infections.

Abstract
Photothermal treatment (PTT) is a promising strategy to deal with multidrug-resistant bacteria infection and promote tissue regeneration. Previous studies demonstrated that hyperthermia can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, whereas mild heat can promote cell proliferation, further accelerating wound healing and bone regeneration. Especially, hydrogels with photothermal properties could achieve remotely controlled drug release. In this review, we introduce a photothermal agent hybrid in hydrogels for a photothermal effect. We also summarize the potential mechanisms of photothermal hydrogels regarding antibacterial action, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. Furthermore, recent developments in photothermal hydrogels in wound healing and bone regeneration applications are introduced. Finally, future application of photothermal hydrogels is discussed. Hydrogels with photothermal effects provide a new direction for wound healing and bone regeneration, and this review will give a reference for the tissue engineering.

Abstract
Herein, a functional class of microenvironment-associated nanomaterials is reported for improving the second near-infrared (NIR-II) imaging and photothermal therapeutic effect on intracranial tumors via a spontaneous membrane-adsorption approach. Specific peptides, photothermal agents, and biological alkylating agents were designed to endow the nanogels with high targeting specificity, photothermal properties, and pharmacological effects. Importantly, the frozen scanning electron microscopy technology (cryo-SEM) was utilized to observe the self-association of nanomaterials on tumor cells. Interestingly, the spontaneous membrane-adsorption behavior of nanomaterials was captured through direct imaging evidence. Histological analysis showed that the cross-linking adhesion in intracranial tumor and monodispersity in normal tissues of the nanogels not only enhanced the retention time but also ensured excellent biocompatibility. Impressively, in vivo data confirmed that the microenvironment-associated nanogels could significantly enhance brain tumor clearance rate within a short treatment timeframe (only two weeks). In short, utilizing the spontaneous membrane-adsorption strategy can significantly improve NIR-II diagnosis and phototherapy in brain diseases while avoiding high-risk complications.

Abstract
Hydrogels (HGs) and nanogels (NGs) have been recently identified as innovative supramolecular materials for many applications in biomedical field such as in tissue engineering, optoelectronic, and local delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). Due to their in vivo biocompatibility, synthetic accessibility, low cost, and tunability, peptides have been used as suitable building blocks for preparation of HGs and NGs formulations. Peptide HGs have shown an outstanding potential to deliver small drugs, protein therapeutics, or diagnostic probes, maintaining the efficacy of their loaded molecules, preventing degradation phenomena, and responding to external physicochemical stimuli. In this review, we discuss the possible use of peptide-based HGs and NGs as vehicles for the delivery of the anticancer drug doxorubicin (Dox). This anthracycline is clinically used for leukemia, stomach, lung, ovarian, breast, and bladder cancer therapy. The loading of Dox into supramolecular systems (liposomes, micelles, hydrogels, and nanogels) allows reducing its cardiotoxicity. According to a primary sequence classification of the constituent peptide, doxorubicin-loaded systems are here classified in short and ultra-short peptide-based HGs, RGD, or RADA-peptide-based HGs and peptide-based NGs.

Abstract
Photothermal sterilization is a promising and effective treatment method in treating bacterial infection. Generally, a widely employed light source in photothermal sterilization inevitably damages the skin tissue due to the high-intensity irradiation dose. How to provide useful antibacterial outcomes without light-triggered skin damage is a challenge for photothermal sterilization. In this work, a novel antibacterial hydrogel (VAT hydrogel, the abbreviation for vancomycin-agarose-ferric tannate hydrogel) has been successfully constructed by the natural polysaccharide hydrogel (AG) encapsulating ferric tannate (TA-Fe) nanoparticles and vancomycin. The VAT hydrogel exhibited the outstanding photothermal properties and controllable antibiotics release. With the results of antibacterial assays, the VAT hydrogel revealed the superior effectiveness of synergistic wound disinfection by the low-intensity near-infrared light-triggered spatiotemporal antibiotics release and hyperthermia. More importantly, the VAT hydrogels possessed the good biocompatibility. With the outstanding synergistic sterilizing effect and excellent biocompatibility, the VAT hydrogel would be a promising candidate for bacteria-associated wound infections.

Abstract
Polynorbornenes, prepared by the ‘living’ and ‘controlled’ ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) method, have emerged as a stimuli-sensitive new class of polymer carriers. Herein, we reported a novel amphiphilic diblock polynorbornene, PNCHO-b-PNTEG, containing active benzaldehyde units, which exhibited good conjugating capacity to amino-containing molecules (e.g., doxorubicin (DOX)) via the pH-sensitive Schiff base linkage. The copolymer and its conjugate with DOX, DOX-PNCHO-b-PNTEG, were adequately analyzed by various techniques including 1H NMR, 13C NMR, gel permeation chromatography, etc. Especially, the formed conjugate of DOX-PNCHO-b-PNTEG could self-assemble into near-spherical micelles with the diameter of 81 ± 10 nm, and exhibit acid-triggered DOX release behavior, and the release rate could be adjusted by changing the environmental pH value. The excellent biological safety of PNCHO-b-PNTEG was further demonstrated by the results from both in vitro toxicity evaluation to murine fibroblast cells (L-929 cells) and in vivo evaluation of acute developmental toxicity and cell death in zebrafish embryos. Hence, the present polynorbornene-based PNCHO-b-PNTEG possesses great potential application as a biocompatible polymeric carrier and could be employed to fabricate various pH-sensitive conjugates.

Abstract
Nanogels, or nanostructured hydrogels, are one of the most interesting materials in biomedical engineering. Nanogels are widely used in medical applications, such as in cancer therapy, targeted delivery of proteins, genes and DNAs, and scaffolds in tissue regeneration. One salient feature of nanogels is their tunable responsiveness to external stimuli. In this review, thermosensitive nanogels are discussed, with a focus on moieties in their chemical structure which are responsible for thermosensitivity. These thermosensitive moieties can be classified into four groups, namely, polymers bearing amide groups, ether groups, vinyl ether groups and hydrophilic polymers bearing hydrophobic groups. These novel thermoresponsive nanogels provide effective drug delivery systems and tissue regeneration constructs for treating patients in many clinical applications, such as targeted, sustained and controlled release.

Abstract
An upsurge in the multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial pestilence is a global cause for concern in terms of human health. Lately, nanomaterials with photothermal effects have assisted in the efficient killing of MDR bacteria, attributable to their uncommon plasmonic, photocatalytic, and structural properties. Examinations of substantial amounts of photothermally enabled nanomaterials have shown bactericidal effects in an optimized time under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation. In this review, we have compiled recent advances in photothermally enabled nanomaterials for antibacterial activities and their mechanisms. Photothermally enabled nanomaterials are classified into three groups, including metal-, carbon-, and polymer-based nanomaterials. Based on substantial accomplishments with photothermally enabled nanomaterials, we have inferred current trends and their prospective clinical applications.

Abstract
Nowadays, photothermal killing of pathogenic bacteria and treatment of wound infection have attracted great attention owing to effectively avoiding the drawbacks of traditional antibiotics. In this work, an agarose (AG)-based hydrogel containing tannic acid-Fe(III) (TA-Fe) nanoparticles was fabricated by a facile and eco-friendly strategy. The optimal nanocomposite hydrogel showed the good mechanical property and superior processability. More importantly, the nanocomposite hydrogel revealed outstanding photothermal effect, which exhibited a sharp temperature increase of 58 °C during NIR exposure for 10 min. With in vitro antibacterial experiment, the hydrogel could effectively kill of nearly 99 % of bacteria with 10 min of NIR irradiation. Additionally, for the in vivo experiment, the nanocomposite hydrogel could effectively cure wound infection and promote wound healing. Moreover, the hydrogel possessed high biocompatibility. Based on the good mechanical property, outstanding photothermal effect and high biocompatibility, the nanocomposite hydrogel could become a promising antibacterial wound dressings for biomedical applications.

Abstract
The colonization of undesired bacteria on the surface of devices used in biomedical and clinical applications has become a persistent problem. Different types of single-function (cell resistance or bactericidal) bioresponsive materials have been developed to cope with this problem. Even though these materials meet the basic requirements of many biomedical and clinical applications, dual-function (cell resistance and biocidal) bioresponsive materials with superior design and function could be better suited for these applications. The past few years have witnessed the emergence of a new class of dual-function materials that can reversibly switch between cell-resistance and biocidal functions in response to external stimuli. These materials are finding increased applications in biomedical devices, tissue engineering, and drug-delivery systems. This review highlights the recent advances in design, structure, and fabrication of dual-function bioresponsive materials and discusses translational challenges and future prospects for research involving these materials.

Abstract
Nanomaterials and nanotechnologies have been expected to provide innovative platforms for addressing antibacterial challenges, with potential to even deal with bacterial infections involving drug-resistance. The current review summarizes recent progress over the last 3 years in the field of antibacterial nanomaterials with a photothermal conversion effect. We classify these photothermal nanomaterials into four functional categories: carbon-based nanoconjugates of graphene derivatives or carbon nanotubes, noble metal nanomaterials mainly from gold and silver, metallic compound nanocomposites such as copper sulfide and molybdenum sulfide, and polymeric as well as other nanostructures. Different categories can be assembled with each other to enhance the photothermal effects and the antibacterial activities. The review describes their fabrication processes, unique properties, antibacterial modes, and potential healthcare applications.
