Abstract
Intracellular bacteria pose a great challenge to antimicrobial therapy due to various physiological barriers at both cellular and bacterial levels, which impede drug penetration and intracellular targeting, thereby fostering antibiotic resistance and yielding suboptimal treatment outcomes. Herein, a cascade-target bacterial-responsive drug delivery nanosystem, MM@SPE NPs, comprising a macrophage membrane (MM) shell and a core of SPE NPs. SPE NPs consist of phenylboronic acid-grafted dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (SP NPs) encapsulated with epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a non-antibiotic antibacterial component, via pH-sensitive boronic ester bonds are introduced. Upon administration, MM@SPE NPs actively home in on infected macrophages due to the homologous targeting properties of the MM shell, which is subsequently disrupted during cellular endocytosis. Within the cellular environment, SPE NPs expose and spontaneously accumulate around intracellular bacteria through their bacteria-targeting phenylboronic acid groups. The acidic bacterial microenvironment further triggers the breakage of boronic ester bonds between SP NPs and EGCG, allowing the bacterial-responsive release of EGCG for localized intracellular antibacterial effects. The efficacy of MM@SPE NPs in precisely eliminating intracellular bacteria is validated in two rat models of intracellular bacterial infections. This cascade-targeting responsive system offers new solutions for treating intracellular bacterial infections while minimizing the risk of drug resistance.

Abstract
Sutures and staplers, as gold standards for clinical wound closure, usually cause secondary tissue injury and require professional technicians and equipment. The noninvasive hydrogel adhesives are used in various biomedical applications, such as wound closure, tissue sealing, and tissue regeneration, due to their remarkable properties. Recently-developed hydrogel adhesives, especially stimuli-responsive hydrogels, have shown great potential owing to their advantages in regulating their performance and functions according to the wound situations or external conditions, thus allowing the wounds to heal gradually. However, comprehensive summary on stimuli-responsive hydrogels as tissue adhesives is rarely reported to date. This review focuses on the advances in the design of various stimuli-responsive hydrogel adhesives over the past decade, including the systems responsive to pH, temperature, photo, and enzymes. Their potential biomedical applications, such as skin closure, cardiovascular and liver hemostasis, and gastrointestinal sealing, are emphasized. Meanwhile, the challenges and future development of stimuli-responsive hydrogel adhesives are discussed. This review aims to provide meaningful insights for the further design of next-generation of hydrogel adhesives for wound closure and tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Bacterial infection is a critical factor in wound healing. Due to the abuse of antibiotics, some pathogenic bacteria have developed resistance. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop a non-antibiotic-dependent multifunctional wound dressing for the treatment of bacteria-infected wounds. In this work, a multifunctional AOCuT hydrogel embedded with CuS@TA-Fe nanoparticles (NPs) through Schiff base reaction between gelatin quaternary ammonium salt - gallic acid (O-Gel-Ga) and sodium dialdehyde alginate (ADA) along with electrostatic interactions with CuS@TA-Fe NPs is prepared. These composite hydrogels possess favorable injectability, rapid shape adaptation, electrical conductivity, photothermal antimicrobial activity, and biocompatibility. Additionally, the doped NPs not only impart fast self-healing properties and excellent adhesion performance to the hydrogels, but also provide excellent peroxide-like properties, enabling them to scavenge free radicals and exhibit anti-inflammatory and antioxidant capabilities via photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) effects. In an S. aureus infected wound model, the composite hydrogel effectively reduces the expression level of wound inflammatory factors and accelerates collagen deposition, epithelial tissue, and vascular regeneration, thereby promoting wound healing. This safe and synergistic therapeutic system holds great promise for clinical applications in the treatment of infectious wounds.

Abstract
Self-healing hydrogels have emerged as the most promising alternatives to conventional brittle hydrogels used in the biomedical field due to the features of long-term stability and durability. However, the incompatibility between the fast self-healing property and enough mechanical strength of hydrogels remains a challenge. Therefore, hydrogels that possess not only mechanical toughness but also autonomous self-healing capacity are sought after. This review presents a comprehensive summary of the latest self-healing mechanisms. Specifically, we review various systems based on dynamic bonds, ranging from dynamic covalent bonds to non-covalent bonds. Additionally, this review presents different characterization methods for self-healing hydrogels, and also highlights their potential applications in the biomedical field, such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, cell therapy, and wound dressing. Furthermore, this review aims to provide valuable guidance for constructing diverse self-healing hydrogels with tailored functions.

Abstract
A transdermal patch that delivers insulin at high glucose concentrations can offer tremendous advantages to ease the concern of safety and improve the quality of life for people with diabetes. Herein, a novel self-crosslinkable and glucose-responsive polymer-based microneedle patch (MN) is designed to deliver insulin at hyperglycemia. The microneedle patch is made of hyaluronic acid polymers functionalized with dopamine and 4-amino-3-fluorophenylboronic acid (AFBA) that can be quickly crosslinked upon mixing of the polymer solutions in the absence of any chemicalcrosslinking agents or organic solvents. The catechol groups in the dopamine (DA) units form covalent crosslinkages among themselves by auto-oxidation and dynamic crosslink with phenylboronic acid (PBA) via complexation. The reversible crosslinkages between catechol and boronate decrease with increasing glucose concentration leading to higher swelling and faster insulin release at hyperglycemia as compared to euglycemia. Such superior glucose-responsive properties are demonstrated by in vitro analyses and in vivo efficacy studies. The hydrogel polymers also preserve native structure and bioactivity of insulin, attributable to the interaction of hyaluronic acid (HA) with insulin molecules, as revealed by experiments and molecular dynamics simulations. The simplicity in the design and fabrication process, and glucose-responsiveness in insulin delivery impart the matrix microneedle (mMN) patch great potential for clinical translation.

Abstract
Biomimetic switchable adhesion interfaces (BSAIs) with dynamic adhesion states have demonstrated significant advantages in micro-manipulation and bio-detection. Among them, gecko-inspired adhesives have garnered considerable attention due to their exceptional adaptability to extreme environments. However, their high adhesion strength poses challenges in achieving flexible control. Herein, we propose an elegant and efficient approach by fabricating three-dimensional mushroom-shaped polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) micropillars on a flexible PDMS substrate to mimic the bending and stretching of gecko footpads. The fabrication process that employs two-photon polymerization ensures high spatial resolution, resulting in micropillars with exquisite structures and ultra-smooth surfaces, even for tip/stem ratios exceeding 2 (a critical factor for maintaining adhesion strength). Furthermore, these adhesive structures display outstanding resilience, enduring 175% deformation and severe bending without collapse, ascribing to the excellent compatibility of the micropillar's composition and physical properties with the substrate. Our BSAIs can achieve highly controllable adhesion force and rapid manipulation of liquid droplets through mechanical bending and stretching of the PDMS substrate. By adjusting the spacing between the micropillars, precise control of adhesion strength is achieved. These intriguing properties make them promising candidates for various applications in the fields of microfluidics, micro-assembly, flexible electronics, and beyond.

Abstract
Wet adhesion is highly demanded in noninvasive wound closure, tissue repair, and biomedical devices, but it is still a big challenge for developing biosafe and tough wet bioadhesives due to low or even nonadhesion in the wet state for conventional adhesives. Inspired by the wet-adhesion-contributing factors of mussel foot proteins, a water-responsive dry robust tissue adhesive PAGU tape is made with thickness of <0.5 mm through fast UV-initiated copolymerization of acrylic acid (AA), gelatin (Gel), and hexadecenyl-1,2-catechol (UH). The tape shows strong cohesive mechanical properties and strong interfacial adhesion bonds. Upon application onto wet tissue, the adhesive tape can conform to the tissue, quickly dry tissue surface through absorbing surface/interfacial water and then allows formation of interfacial bonding with a high interfacial toughness of ≈818 J m-2 . Furthermore, it can be readily detached by treating with aq. urea solution. A highly efficient avenue is provided here for producing conformable, tough, and easy detachable wet bioadhesive tapes.

Abstract
Catechol (cat) is a highly adhesive diphenol that can be chemically grafted to polymers such as chitosan (CH) to make them adhesive as well. However, catechol-containing materials experimentally show a large variability of toxicity, especially in vitro. While it is unclear how this toxicity emerges, most concerns are directed toward the oxidation of catechol into quinone that releases reactive oxygen species (ROS) which can, in turn, cause cell apoptosis through oxidative stress. To better understand the mechanisms at play, we examined the leaching profiles, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production, and in vitro cytotoxicity of several cat-chitosan (cat-CH) hydrogels that were prepared with different oxidation levels and cross-linking methods. To create cat-CH with different propensities toward oxidation, we grafted either hydrocaffeic acid (HCA, more prone to oxidation) or dihydrobenzoic acid (DHBA, less prone to oxidation) to the backbone of CH. Hydrogels were cross-linked either covalently, using sodium periodate (NaIO4) to trigger oxidative cross-linking, or physically, using sodium bicarbonate (SHC). While using NaIO4 as a cross-linker increased the oxidation levels of the hydrogels, it also significantly reduced in vitro cytotoxicity, H2O2 production, and catechol and quinone leaching in the media. For all gels tested, cytotoxicity could be directly related to the release of quinones rather than H2O2 production or catechol release, showing that oxidative stress may not be the main reason for catechol cytotoxicity, as other pathways of quinone toxicity come into play. Results also suggest that the indirect cytotoxicity of cat-CH hydrogels fabricated through carbodiimide chemistry can be reduced if (i) catechol groups are chemically bound to the polymer backbone to prevent leaching or (ii) the chosen cat-bearing molecule has a high resistance to oxidation. Coupled with the use of other cross-linking chemistries or more efficient purification methods, these strategies can be adopted to synthesize various types of cytocompatible cat-containing scaffolds.

Abstract
Hydrogel adhesives integrating both rapid and strong adhesion to blooding tissues and biocompatibility are highly desired for fast hemostasis. Herein, a flexible hyaluronic acid hydrogel adhesive is fabricated via photocrosslinking of the solution originating from dopamine-conjugated maleic hyaluronic acid (DMHA) in situ. The introduction of acrylate groups with high substitutions into the hydrogel matrix endows the adhesive with rapid gelation and strong tissue adhesion properties through photopolymerization. Moreover, the high substitution of catechol groups with unoxidized state can not only induce red blood cell aggregation and platelets adhesion but also adhere to wound tissue to further enhance hemostasis. Based on its bio-adhesion and procoagulant activity, the DMHA hydrogel formed in situ reveals superior hemostatic performance in the rat liver injury model and noncompressible hemorrhage model, and rabbit femoral artery puncture model, compared to commercial products (gauze, absorbable gelatin sponge) and oxidized DMHA (SMHA) hydrogel. Besides, the hydrogel exhibited good adaptability, biodegradability, and superior cytocompatibility as well as negligible inflammation. This hydrogel adhesive is a promising biological adhesive for hemorrhage control.

Abstract
Adhesive materials are natural or synthetic polymers with the ability to adhere to the surface of luminal mucus or epithelial cells. They are widely used in the biomedical field due to their unique adhesion, biocompatibility, and excellent surface properties. When used in the human body, they can adhere to an accessible target and remain at the focal site for a longer period, improving the therapeutic effect on local disease. An adhesive material with bacteriostatic properties can play an antibacterial role at the focal site and the adhesive properties of the material can prevent the focal site from being infected by bacteria for a period. In addition, some adhesive materials can promote cell growth and tissue repair. In this review, the properties and mechanism of natural adhesive materials, organic adhesive materials, composite adhesive materials, and underwater adhesive materials have been introduced systematically. The applications of these adhesive materials in drug delivery, antibacterials, tissue repair, and other applications are described in detail. Finally, we have discussed the prospects and challenges of using adhesive materials in the field of biomedicine.

Abstract
Uncontrolled bleeding remains one of the direct causes of high mortality. There is an urgent need for developing emergency hemostats capable of coping with uncontrolled bleeding. The commercial starch-based hemostatic powder (PerClot®) requires compression during application, which limits its application in hemostasis of irregular and non-compressed wounds. Herein, a boronic acid-modified thiol starch sponge (St-SP sponge) with self-gelling properties was developed for hemorrhage control. The results show that the St-SP sponge could quickly absorb blood, self-gel and self-heal to seal the bleeding sites. In addition, the St-SP sponge can rapidly initiate the coagulation cascade and promote the adhesion and aggregation of erythrocytes and platelets. The St-SP sponge exhibited significantly improved in vitro and in vivo hemostatic abilities as compared with PerClot. Notably, the St-SP sponge attained complete hemostasis without any compression in 61.5 s and made a great difference compared to PerClot (169 s) for the irregular wound constructed on the rabbit liver. In addition, the St-SP sponge had good hemocompatibility and cytocompatibility. It turns out that the newly developed St-SP sponge is a promising material for first-aid hemostasis of irregular and non-compressed wounds.

Abstract
Photothermal hydrogel adhesives have yielded promising results for wound closure and infected wound treatment in recent years. However, photothermal hydrogel bioadhesives with on-demand removability without additional nanomaterials-based photothermal agents have rarely been reported in the literature. In this work, an injectable intrinsic photothermal hydrogel bioadhesive with an on-demand removal trait is developed through dynamic cross-linking of gelatin (Gel), tannic acid (TA) quinone, and borax for closing skin incisions and accelerating methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infected wound healing. The TA quinone containing polyphenol and quinone groups with multifunctional adhesiveness and intrinsic photothermal performance confer the hydrogel adhesive with near-infrared (NIR) responsive antibacterial activity. The cross-linking of pH-sensitive boronic ester (polyphenol-B) and Schiff base bonds endow the hydrogel with great self-healing capacity and on-demand removability. Moreover, the hydrogel possesses good biocompatibility, injectability, and hemostasis. The in vivo experiment in a rat cutaneous incision model and full-thickness MRSA-infected wound model indicate that the smart hydrogel can close wounds efficiently and treat infected ones, demonstrating its superiority in noninvasive treatment of cutaneous incisions and enhancing infected full-thickness wound healing.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and inflammation are common pathological mechanisms for the progression of tissue degeneration. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) features antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which is a promising drug for the treatment of tissue degeneration. Herein, we utilize the phenylborate ester reaction of EGCG and phenylboronic acid (PBA) to fabricate an injectable and tissue adhesive EGCG-laden hydrogel depot (EGCG HYPOT), which can achieve anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects via smart delivery of EGCG. Specifically, the phenylborate ester bonds, formed by EGCG and PBA-modified methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA-PBA), endow EGCG HYPOT injectability, shape adaptation and efficient load of EGCG. After photo-crosslinking, EGCG HYPOT exhibits good mechanical properties, tissue adhesion and sustained acid-responsive release of EGCG. EGCG HYPOT can scavenge oxygen and nitrogen free radicals. Meanwhile, EGCG HYPOT can scavenge intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and suppress the expression of pro-inflammatory factors. EGCG HYPOT may provide a new idea for alleviation of inflammatory disturbance.

Abstract
Solid matter that can rapidly and reversibly switch between adhesive and non-adhesive states is desired in many technological domains including climbing robotics, actuators, wound dressings, and bioelectronics due to the ability for on-demand attachment and detachment. For most types of smart adhesive materials, however, reversible switching occurs only at narrow scales (nanoscale or microscale), which limits the realization of interchangeable surfaces with distinct adhesive states. Here, we report the design of a switchable adhesive hydrogel via dynamic multiscale contact synergy, termed as DMCS-hydrogel. The hydrogel rapidly switches between slippery (friction ~0.04 N/cm2) and sticky (adhesion ~3 N/cm2) states in the solid-solid contact process, exhibits large span, is switchable and dynamic, and features rapid adhesive switching. The design strategy of this material has wide applications ranging from programmable adhesive materials to intelligent devices.

Abstract
Detachable adhesives with simultaneously high bonding strength and detaching efficiency have remained a great challenge in adhesion science. The existing detachable adhesives (e.g., solid-liquid phase transitions-based adhesives) usually show low initial cohesion and require long detaching time (several minutes or hours for transitions). Herein, by introducing ionic liquids (ILs) and soft polyethylene glycol (PEG) into a rigid epoxy precursor and curing, we demonstrated the adhesives with both high initial bonding strength (>13 MPa) and detaching efficiency (100% detachment within 10 s under a 90 V DC voltage). The high initial bonding strength is due to the imidazolium cations of ILs and their ion-dipole interactions with PEG can promote the curing of epoxy, decrease the glass-transition temperature, increase the interfacial wettability, and transmit external stress. Also, the outstanding detaching efficiency is because the tetrafluoroborate anions of ILs can electrochemically react rapidly under a voltage and generate fluorinated nanoparticles at the bonding interface within 1 minute. The high bonding and electrochemistry-induced detaching mechanism were further characterized. This work opens up a new avenue for the rational design of fast-detachable adhesives with high bonding strength, showing wide potential in many modern fields.

Abstract
Bacteria such as Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causes acidic microenvironment during infection. A biomaterial that exhibits tunable antimicrobial property in a pH dependent manner is potentially attractive. Herein, we presented a novel antibacterial hydrogel consisting of pH responsive and reversible catechol-boronate linkage formed between intrinsically bactericidal chlorinated catechol (catechol-Cl) and phenylboronic acid. Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), oscillatory rheometry, and Johnson Kendall Roberts (JKR) contact mechanics testing confirmed the formation and dissociation of the complex in a pH dependent manner. When the hydrogel was treated with an acidic buffer (pH 3), the hydrogel exhibited excellent antimicrobial property against multiple strains of Gram-positive and negative bacteria including MRSA (up to 4 log10 reduction from 108 colony forming units/mL). At an acidic pH, catechol-Cl was unbound from the phenylboronic acid and available for killing bacteria. Conversely, when the hydrogel was treated with a basic buffer (pH 8.5), the hydrogel lost its antimicrobial property but also became non-cytotoxic. At a basic pH, the formation of catechol-boronate complex effectively reduce the exposure of the cytotoxic catechol-Cl to the surrounding. When further incubating the hydrogel in an acidic pH, the reversible complex dissociated to re-expose catechol-Cl and the hydrogel recovered its antibacterial property. Overall, the combination of catechol-Cl and phenylboronic acid provide a new strategy for designing hydrogels with pH responsive antibacterial activity and reduced cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Developing new underwater glue adhesives with robust and repeatable adhesion to various surfaces is promising and useful in marine life and medical treatments. In this work, we developed a novel glue based on a copolymer with a cation-co-aromatic sequence where the cationic units contain both catechol and positively charged sites. The glue consists of a crosslinked copolymer of poly(2-hydroxy-3-phenoxypropyl acrylate-co-3-(5-(3,4 dihydroxyphenyl)-4-oxo-3 N-pentyl)imidazolium) bromide in dimethyl sulfoxide. Solidification of the glue, triggered by contact with water, undergoes a coacervation stage and causes a drastic growth of its mechanical properties over time. The glue demonstrates fast-developing, strong, and repeatable underwater adhesion to different materials and can maintain its strength for a long time. The adhesion strength tends to increase with the surface energy of the substrate material, to a maximum value of 160 kPa found in plywood. Experiments conducted in aqueous media with different pH and ionic strengths, including physiological conditions and seawater, showed an even stronger adhesion than that evolved in deionized water. Thus, the developed glue is a promising candidate for use in marine life, tissue adhesives, and other freshwater and saline water applications.

Abstract
The development of underwater remote stimulus-responsive self-healing polymer materials for applications in inaccessible and urgent situations is very challenging because water can readily disturb traditional noncovalent bonds and absorb heat, UV light, IR light, and electromagnetic wave energy at the wave band of micrometers and millimeters. Herein, visible-light-responsive diselenide bonds are employed as the healing moieties to produce a water-enhanced and remote self-healing elastomer triggered by a blue laser, which possesses excellent underwater transmission capability. During healing, the strain at break reaches ∼200% in 5 min and its toughness almost fully recovers within 1 h, which is estimated to be the fastest reported to date for healing silicone elastomers with a healing efficiency above 90%. The remote underwater pipeline sealing is instantly accomplished with the diselenide-containing elastomers by a blue laser 3 m away, thereby providing a direction for future emergent healing applications.

Abstract
Metal ions are ubiquitous in nature and play significant roles in assembling functional materials in fields spanning chemistry, biology, and materials science. Metal-phenolic materials are assembled from phenolic components in the presence of metal ions through the formation of metal-organic complexes. Alkali, alkali-earth, transition, and noble metal ions as well as metalloids interacting with phenolic building blocks have been widely exploited to generate diverse hybrid materials. Despite extensive studies on the synthesis of metal-phenolic materials, a comprehensive summary of how metal ions guide the assembly of phenolic compounds is lacking. A fundamental understanding of the roles of metal ions in metal-phenolic materials engineering will facilitate the assembly of materials with specific and functional properties. In this review, we focus on the diversity and function of metal ions in metal-phenolic material engineering and emerging applications. Specifically, we discuss the range of underlying interactions, including (i) cation-π, (ii) coordination, (iii) redox, and (iv) dynamic covalent interactions, and highlight the wide range of material properties resulting from these interactions. Applications (e.g., biological, catalytic, and environmental) and perspectives of metal-phenolic materials are also highlighted.

Abstract
The metabolite adenosine plays an important immunosuppressive role in the tumor microenvironment (TME) through its ligation with the metabolic checkpoint adenosine 2A receptor (A2AR). Here, an adenosine-A2AR negative feedback pathway is highlighted during photothermal-induced immunogenic cell death (ICD). Adenosine, hydrolyzed from ATP, is amplified during the photothermal-induced ICD process. It is possible to achieve a robust ICD-based immunotherapy via targeting the adenosine-A2AR metabolic pathway. In this regard, an A2AR inhibitor-loaded polydopamine nanocarrier masked by an acid-sensitive PEG shell is designed to enable tumor-specific delivery and photothermal-induced ICD simultaneously. Upon reaching the acidic TME, the PEG shell selectively detaches and exposes the adhesive polydopamine layer, causing the inhibitors to accumulate at the tumor tissue. The accumulated inhibitors attenuate adenosine's metabolically suppressive effect and strengthen the ICD immune response. It occurs through promoting dendritic cell (DC) activation, increasing CD8+ T lymphocyte infiltration, and reducing the myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) population. Furthermore, this synergistic therapy significantly regresses the primary tumor, inhibits distal tumor growth, and prevents lung metastasis. The study highlights a strategy to enhance the immunotherapy efficacy of ICD by blocking the metabolic checkpoint A2AR using advanced nanomaterials.

Abstract
We describe bioadhesive membranes developed from marine renewable biomaterials, namely chitosan and collagen extracted from fish skins. Collagen was functionalized with catechol groups (Coll-Cat) to provide the membranes with superior adhesive properties in a wet environment and blended with chitosan to improve the mechanical properties. The blended membranes were compared to chitosan and chitosan blended with unmodified collagen in terms of surface morphology, wettability, weight loss, water uptake, mechanical and adhesive properties. The metabolic activity, the viability and the morphology of L929 fibroblastic cells seeded on these membranes were also assessed. Our results show that the functionalization with catechol groups improves the adhesive and mechanical properties of the membranes and enhances cell attachment and proliferation. These data suggest that the developed marine origin-raw membranes present a potential towards the restoration of the structural and functional properties of damaged soft tissues.

Abstract
Spontaneously formed hydrogels are attracting increasing interest as injectable or wound dressing materials because they do not require additional reactions or toxic crosslinking reagents. Highly valuable properties such as low viscosity before external application, adequate filmogenic capacity, rapid gelation and tissue adhesion are required in order to use them for those therapeutic applications. In addition, biocompatibility and biodegradability are also mandatory. Accordingly, biopolymers, such as hyaluronic acid (HA) and chitosan (CHI), that have shown great potential for wound healing applications are excellent candidates due to their unique physiochemical and biological properties, such as moisturizing and antimicrobial ability, respectively. In this study, both biopolymers were modified by covalent anchoring of catechol groups, and the obtained hydrogels were characterized by studying, in particular, their tissue adhesiveness and film forming capacity for potential skin wound healing applications. Tissue adhesiveness was related to o-quinone formation over time and monitored by visible spectroscopy. Consequently, an opposite effect was observed for both polysaccharides. As gelation advances for HA-CA, it becomes more adhesive, while competitive reactions of quinone in CHI-CA slow down tissue adhesiveness and induce a detriment of the filmogenic properties.

Abstract
Across diverse research and application areas, dynamic functionality-such as programmable changes in biochemical property, in mechanical property, or in microscopic or macroscopic architecture-is an increasingly common biomaterials design criterion, joining long-studied criteria such as cytocompatibility and biocompatibility, drug release kinetics, and controlled degradability or long-term stability in vivo. Despite tremendous effort, achieving dynamic functionality while simultaneously maintaining other desired design criteria remains a significant challenge. Reversible dynamic functionality, rather than one-time or one-way dynamic functionality, is of particular interest but has proven especially challenging. Such reversible functionality could enable studies that address the current gap between the dynamic nature of in vivo biological and biomechanical processes, such as cell traction, cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions, and cell-mediated ECM remodeling, and the static nature of the substrates and ECM constructs used to study the processes. This review assesses dynamic materials that have traditionally been used to control cell activity and static biomaterial constructs, experimental and computational techniques, with features that may inform continued advances in reversible dynamic materials. Taken together, this review presents a perspective on combining the reversibility of smart materials and the in-depth dynamic cell behavior probed by static polymers to design smart bi-directional ECM platforms that can reversibly and repeatedly communicate with cells.

Abstract
As a kind of nature-derived bioactive materials, polyphenol-based hydrogels possess many unique and outstanding properties such as adhesion, toughness, and self-healing due to their specific crosslinking structures, which have been widely used in biomedical fields including wound healing, antitumor, treatment of motor system injury, digestive system disease, oculopathy, and bioelectronics. In this review, starting with the classification of common polyphenol-based hydrogels, the pyramid evolution process of polyphenol-based hydrogels from crosslinking structures to derived properties and then to biomedical applications is elaborated, as well as the efficient reverse design considerations of polyphenol-based hydrogel systems are proposed. Finally, the existing problems and development prospects of these hydrogel materials are discussed. It is hoped that the unique perspective of the review can promote further innovation and breakthroughs of polyphenol-based hydrogels in the future. Polyphenol-based hydrogels combine advantages of polyphenols with common hydrogels. Cognition of such hydrogels underwent from structures to properties to applications. Various crosslinked structures of such hydrogels can derive outstanding properties. Such hydrogels can be widely used in biomedicine due to the outstanding properties. Reverse design thought from applications to properties to structures is promising.

Abstract
With the "many-headed" slime mold Physarum polycelphalum having been voted the unicellular organism of the year 2021 by the German Society of Protozoology, we are reminded that a large part of nature's huge variety of life forms is easily overlooked - both by the general public and researchers alike. Indeed, whereas several animals such as mussels or spiders have already inspired many scientists to create novel materials with glue-like properties, there is much more to discover in the flora and fauna. Here, we provide an overview of naturally occurring slimy substances with adhesive properties and categorize them in terms of the main chemical motifs that convey their stickiness, i.e., carbohydrate-, protein-, and glycoprotein-based biological glues. Furthermore, we highlight selected recent developments in the area of material design and functionalization that aim at making use of such biological compounds for novel applications in medicine - either by conjugating adhesive motifs found in nature to biological or synthetic macromolecules or by synthetically creating (multi-)functional materials, which combine adhesive properties with additional, problem-specific (and sometimes tunable) features.

Abstract
Recently, there has been a wave of reports on the fabrication of peptide-based underwater adhesives with the aim of understanding the adhesion mechanism of marine sessile organisms or creating new biomaterials beyond nature. However, the poor shear adhesion performance of the current peptide adhesives has largely hindered their applications. Herein, we proposed to sequentially perform the interfacial adhesion and bulk cohesion of peptide-based underwater adhesives using two redox-complementary peptide/polyoxometalate (POM) coacervates. The oxidative coacervates were prepared by mixing oxidative H5PMo10V2O40 and cationic peptides in an aqueous solution. The reductive coacervates consisted of K5BW12O40 and cysteine-containing reductive peptides. Each of the individual coacervate has well-defined spreading capacity to achieve fast interfacial attachment and adhesion, but their cohesion is poor. However, after mixing the two redox-complementary coacervates at the target surface, effective adhesion and spontaneous curing were observed. We identified that the spontaneous curing resulted from the H5PMo10V2O40-regulated oxidization of cysteine-containing peptides. The formed intermolecular disulfide bonds improved the cross-linking density of the dual-peptide/POM coacervates, giving rise to the enhanced bulk cohesion and mechanical strength. More importantly, the resultant adhesives showcased excellent bioactivity to selectively suppress the growth of Gram-positive bacteria due to the presence of the polyoxometalates. This work raises further potential in the creation of biomimetic adhesives through the orchestrating of covalent and noncovalent interactions in a sequential fashion.

Abstract
As mimics of the extracellular matrix, surfaces with the capability of capturing and releasing specific cells in a smart and controllable way play an important role in bacterial isolation. In this work, we fabricated a dual-responsive smart biointerface via peptide self-assembly and reversible covalent chemistry biomimetic adhesion behavior for bacterial isolation. Compared with that of the biointerface based on a single reversible covalent bond, the bacterial enrichment efficiency obtained in this work was 2.3 times higher. Furthermore, the release of bacteria from the surface could be achieved by dual responsiveness (sugar and enzyme), which makes the biointerface more adaptable and compatible under different conditions. Finally, the reusability of the biointerface was verified via peptide self-assembly and the regenerated smart biointerface still showed good bacterial capture stability and excellent release efficiency, which was highly anticipated to be more widely applied in biomaterial science and biomedicine in the future.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive temporary adhesives constitute a rapidly developing class of materials defined by the modulation of adhesion upon exposure to an external stimulus or stimuli. Engineering these materials to shift between two characteristic properties, strong adhesion and facile debonding, can be achieved through design strategies that target molecular functionalities. This perspective reviews the recent design and development of these materials, with a focus on the different stimuli that may initiate debonding. These stimuli include UV light, thermal energy, chemical triggers, and other potential triggers, such as mechanical force, sublimation, electromagnetism. The conclusion discusses the fundamental value of systematic investigations of the structure-property relationships within these materials and opportunities for unlocking novel functionalities in future versions of adhesives.

Abstract
Injectable hydrogels designed for cell therapy need to be adhesive to the surrounding tissues to maximize their retention and the communication between the host and the encapsulated cells. Catechol grafting is an efficient and well-known strategy to improve the adhesive properties of various polymers, including chitosan. However, catechol groups are also known to be cytotoxic as they oxidize into quinones in alkaline environments. Usually, hydrogels made from catechol-grafted chitosan (cat-CH) oxidize quickly, which tends to limit adhesion and prevent cell encapsulation. In this work, we limited oxidation and improved the cytocompatibility of cat-CH hydrogels by grafting chitosan with dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA), a small cat-bearing molecule known to have a high resistance to oxidation. We show that DHBA-grafted CH (dhba-CH) oxidized significantly slower and to a lesser extent that cat-CH made with hydrocaffeic acid (hca-CH). By combining dhba-CH with sodium bicarbonate and phosphate buffer, we fabricated thermosensitive injectable hydrogels with higher mechanical properties, quicker gelation and significantly lower oxidation than previously designed cat-CH systems. The resulting gels are highly adhesive on inorganic substrates and support L929 fibroblast encapsulation with high viability (≥90% after 24 hours), something that was not possible in any previously designed cat-CH gel system. These properties make the dhba-CH hydrogels excellent candidates for minimally invasive and targeted cell therapy in applications that require high adhesive strength.

Abstract
The excellent adhesion of mussels under wet conditions has inspired the development of numerous catechol-based wet adhesives. Nevertheless, the performance of catechol-based wet adhesive suffers from the sensitivity toward temperature, pH, or oxidation stimuli. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop non-catechol-based wet adhesives to fully recapitulate nature's dynamic function. Herein, a novel type of non-catechol-based wet adhesive is reported, which is readily formed by self-assembly of commercially available branched polyethylenimine and phosphotungstic acid in aqueous solution through the combination of electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bonding. This wet adhesive shows reversible, tunable, and strong adhesion on diverse substrates and further exhibits high efficacy in promoting biological wound healing. During the healing of the wound, the as-prepared wet adhesive also possesses inherent antimicrobial properties, thus avoiding inflammations and infections due to microorganism accumulation.

Abstract
Functional materials engineered to degrade upon triggering are in high demand due their potentially lower impact on the environment as well as their use in sensing and in medical applications. Here, stimuli-responsive polymers are prepared by decorating a self-immolative poly(dithiothreitol) backbone with pendant catechol units. The highly functional polymer is fashioned into stimuli-responsive gels, formed through pH-dependent catecholato-metal ion cross-links. The gels degrade in response to specific environmental changes, either by addressing the pH responsive, non-covalent, catecholato-metal complexes, or by addition of a thiol. The latter stimulus triggers end-to-end depolymerization of the entire self-immolative backbone through end-cap replacement via thiol-disufide exchanges. Gel degradation is visualized by release of a dye from the supramolecular gel as it itself is converted into smaller molecules.

Abstract
To reduce the need for elevated electrical potential to deactivate catechol-based smart adhesive and preserve its reversibility, conductive 1-pyrenemethyl methacrylate (PyMA) was incorporated into a catechol and phenylboronic acid-containing adhesive coating immobilized on aluminum (Al) discs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) indicated that incorporation of 26 mol % of PyMA reduced ionic resistance (Rs) and charge-transfer resistance (Rc) of the coating from over 22 Ω/mm2 to 5.9 and 1.2 Ω/mm2, respectively. A custom-built Johnson-Kendall-Roberts (JKR) contact mechanics test setup was used to evaluate the adhesive property of the coating with in situ applied electricity using a titanium (Ti) sphere both as a test substrate as well as the cathode for application of electricity and the Al disc as the anode. The adhesive coating demonstrated over 95% reduction in the adhesive property when electricity (1-2 V) was applied while the adhesive was in direct contact with the Ti surface. The addition of PyMA enables the deactivation of the adhesive using a voltage as low as 1 V. Both cyclic voltammetry (CV) and attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectra confirmed the formation of catechol-boronate complexation through electrochemical stimulation. Breaking the complex with an acidic buffer (pH 3) recovered the catechol for strong wet adhesion and the coating could be repeatedly deactivated and reactivated using low electrical potential for up to five cycles. Incorporation of both conductive PyMA and boronic acid as the temporary protecting group was required to achieve rapidly switchable adhesive that could be deactivated with low applied voltage.

Abstract
Living organisms have evolved, over billions of years, to develop specialized biostructures with switchable adhesion for various purposes including climbing, perching, preying, sensing, and protecting. According to adhesion mechanisms, switchable adhesives can be divided into four categories: mechanically-based adhesion, liquid-mediated adhesion, physically-actuated adhesion and chemically-enhanced adhesion. Mimicking these biostructures could create smart materials with switchable adhesion, appealing for many engineering applications in robotics, sensors, advanced drug-delivery, protein separation, etc. Progress has been made in developing bioinspired materials with switchable adhesion modulated by external stimuli such as electrical signal, magnetic field, light, temperature, pH value, etc. This review will be focused on new advance in biomimetic design and synthesis of the materials and devices with switchable adhesion. The underlying mechanisms, design principles, and future directions are discussed for the development of high-performance smart surfaces with switchable adhesion.

Abstract
As a kind of natural protein derived material, gelatin has been widely used in the preparation of medical hydrogels due to its good biocompatibility, non-immunogenicity and the ability of promoting cell adhesion. Functionalization of gelatin-based hydrogels is a hot topic in research and its clinic application. Herein, a novel gelatin-based adhesive hydrogel was prepared via mussel-inspired chemistry. Gelatin was firstly functionalized by dopamine to form dopamine grafted gelatin (GelDA). After the mixture with 1,4-phenylenebisboronic acid and graphene oxide (GO), the GelDA/GO hydrogels were obtained by H2O2/HRP (horseradish peroxidase) catalytic system. Based on the self-healing and tissue adhesion of the hydrogels, the hemostatic property has been exhibited in the rat hepatic hemorrhage model. Additionally, the incorporation of GO endowed conductivity and enhanced the mechanical property of GelDA/GO hydrogels. The electromyography (EMG) signals of finger movement were successfully monitored by using hydrogel as the adhesive electrodes of EMG monitor. L929 cell experiments showed that the hydrogels had good cytocompatibility. The results indicated the potential application of GelDA/GO hydrogels in tissue adhesives, wound dressings, and wearable devices.

Abstract
Although there have been notable advances in adhesive materials, the ability to program attaching and detaching behavior in these materials remains a challenge. Here, we report a borate ester polymer hydrogel that can rapidly switch between adhesive and nonadhesive states in response to a mild electrical stimulus (voltages between 3.0 and 4.5 V). This behavior is achieved by controlling the exposure and shielding of the catechol group through water electrolysis-induced reversible cleavage and reformation of the borate ester moiety. By switching the electric field direction, the hydrogel can repeatedly attach to and detach from various surfaces with a response time as low as 1 s. This programmable attaching/detaching strategy provides an alternative approach for robot climbing. The hydrogel is simply pasted onto the moving parts of climbing robots without complicated engineering and morphological designs. Using our hydrogel as feet and wheels, the tethered walking robots and wheeled robots can climb on both vertical and inverted conductive substrates (i.e., moving upside down) such as stainless steel and copper. Our study establishes an effective route for the design of smart polymer adhesives that are applicable in intelligent devices and an electrochemical strategy to regulate the adhesion.

Abstract
Hydrogel adhesion inherently relies on engineering the contact surface at soft and hydrated interfaces. Upon contact, adhesion normally occurs through the formation of chemical or physical interactions between the disparate surfaces. The ability to form these adhesion junctions is challenging for hydrogels as the interfaces are wet and deformable and often contain low densities of functional groups. In this Review, we link the design of the binding chemistries or adhesion junctions, whether covalent, dynamic covalent, supramolecular, or physical, to the emergent adhesive properties of soft and hydrated interfaces. Wet adhesion is useful for bonding to or between tissues and implants for a range of biomedical applications. We highlight several recent and emerging adhesive hydrogels for use in biomedicine in the context of efficient junction design. The main focus is on engineering hydrogel adhesion through molecular design of the junctions to tailor the adhesion strength, reversibility, stability, and response to environmental stimuli.

Abstract
Mussel foot proteins (Mfps) contain a large amount of the catecholic amino acid, DOPA, allowing the marine organism to anchor themselves onto various surfaces in a turbulent and wet environment. Modification of polymers with catechol imparts these materials with a strong, wet adhesive property. The oxidation chemistry and oxidation state of catechol are critical to the design of synthetic adhesives and biomaterials. In this Mini-Review, the effect of catechol oxidation state on adhesion, oxidation-mediated catechol cross-linking, and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) during catechol oxidation are reviewed. Finally, the tuning of catechol oxidation state in designing stimuli-responsive adhesives and the utilization of ROS byproducts for antimicrobial and antiviral applications are reviewed.

Abstract
Catechol is a key constituent in mussel adhesive proteins and is responsible for strong adhesive property and crosslinking formation. Plant-based polyphenols are also capable of chemical interactions similar to those of catechol and are inherently antimicrobial. This review reports a series of catechol-based antimicrobial polymers classified according to their antimicrobial mechanisms. Catechol is utilized as a surface anchoring group for adhering monomers and polymers of known antimicrobial properties onto various types of surfaces. Additionally, catechol's ability to form strong complexes with metal ions and nanoparticles was utilized to sequester these antimicrobial agents into coatings and polymer matrices. During catechol oxidation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) is generated as a byproduct, and the use of the generated ROS for antimicrobial applications was also introduced. Finally, polymers that utilized the innate antimicrobial property of halogenated catechols and polyphenols were reviewed.

Abstract
Bacterial infection associated with multidrug resistance (MDR) bacteria is increasingly becoming a significant public health risk. Herein, we synthesized a series of halogenated dopamine methacrylamide (DMA), which contains a catechol side chain modified with either chloro-, bromo-, or iodo-functional group. Catechol is a widely used adhesive moiety for designing bioadhesives and coating. However, the intrinsic antimicrobial property of catechol has not been demonstrated before. These halogenated DMA were incorporated into hydrogels, copolymers, and coatings and exhibited more than 99% killing efficiencies against Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli. More importantly, hydrogel containing chlorinated DMA demonstrated broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities towards multiple MDR bacteria, which included methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA), vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE), multi antibiotics resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAER), multi antibiotics resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) and carbapenem resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). These hydrogels also demonstrated the ability to kill bacteria in a biofilm while exhibiting low cytotoxic. Based on molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation, Cl-functionalized catechol can potentially inhibit bacterial fatty acid synthesis at the enoyl-acyl carrier protein reductase (FabI) step. The combination of moisture-resistant adhesive property, inherent antimicrobial property, and the versatility of incorporating halogenated DMA into different polymeric materials greatly enhanced the potential for using these monomers for designing multifunctional bioadhesives and coatings.
