Abstract
Infected diabetic wound (DW) presents a prolonged and challenging healing process within the field of regenerative medicine. The effectiveness of conventional drug therapies is hindered by their limited ability to reach deep tissues and promote adequate wound healing rates. Therefore, there is an imperative to develop drug delivery systems that can penetrate deep tissues while exhibiting multifunctional properties to expedite wound healing. In this study, w e devised a soluble microneedle (MN) patch made of γ-PGA, featuring multiple arrays, which w as loaded with core-shell structured nanoparticles (NPs) known as Ag@MSN@CeO2, to enhance the healing of infected DWs. The NP comprises a cerium dioxide (CeO2) core with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, a mesoporous silica NP (MSN) shell with angiogenic characteristics, and an outermost layer doped with Ag to combat bacterial infections. W e demonstrated that the MN platform loaded with Ag@MSN@CeO2 successfully penetrated deep tissues for effective drug delivery. These MN tips induced the formation of multiple regenerative sites at various points, leading to antibacterial, reactive oxygen species-lowering, macrophage ecological niche-regulating, vascular regeneration-promoting, and collagen deposition-promoting effects, thus significantly expediting the healing process of infected DWs. Considering these findings, the multifunctional MN@Ag@MSN@CeO2 patch exhibits substantial potential for clinical applications in the treatment of infected DW.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is one of the main driving mechanisms of intervertebral disc degeneration(IDD). Oxidative stress has been associated with inflammation in the intervertebral disc, cellular senescence, autophagy, and epigenetics of intervertebral disc cells. It and the above pathological mechanisms are closely linked through the common hub reactive oxygen species(ROS), and promote each other in the process of disc degeneration and promote the development of the disease. This reveals the important role of oxidative stress in the process of IDD, and the importance and great potential of IDD therapy targeting oxidative stress. The efficacy of traditional therapy is unstable or cannot be maintained. In recent years, due to the rise of materials science, many bioactive functional materials have been applied in the treatment of IDD, and through the combination with traditional drugs, satisfactory efficacy has been achieved. At present, the research review of antioxidant bioactive materials in the treatment of IDD is not complete. Based on the existing studies, the mechanism of oxidative stress in IDD and the common antioxidant therapy were summarized in this paper, and the strategies based on emerging bioactive materials were reviewed.

Abstract
Wound healing involves distinct phases, including hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, which is a complex and dynamic process. Conventional preparations often fail to meet multiple demands and provide prompt information about wound status. Here, a pH/ROS dual-responsive hydrogel (OHA-PP@Z-CA@EGF) was constructed based on oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA), phenylboronic acid-grafted ε-polylysine (PP), chlorogenic acid (CA)-loaded ZIF-8 (Z-CA), and epidermal growth factor (EGF), which possesses intrinsic antibacterial, antioxidant, and angiogenic capacities. Due to the Schiff base and Phenylboronate ester bonds, the hydrogel exhibited excellent mechanical properties, strong adhesion, good biodegradability, high biocompatibility, stable rheological properties, and self-healing ability. Moreover, introducing Z-CA as an initiator and nanofiller led to the additional cross-linking of hydrogel through coordination bonds, which further improved the mechanical properties and antioxidant capabilities. Bleeding models of liver and tail amputations demonstrated rapid hemostatic properties of the hydrogel. Besides, the hydrogel regulated macrophage phenotypes via the NF-κB/JAK-STAT pathways, relieved oxidative stress, promoted cell migration and angiogenesis, and accelerated diabetic wound healing. The hydrogel also enabled real-time monitoring of the wound healing stages by colorimetric detection. This multifunctional hydrogel opens new avenues for the treatment and management of full-thickness diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Mitochondria, widely known as the energy factories of eukaryotic cells, have a myriad of vital functions across diverse cellular processes. Dysfunctions within mitochondria serve as catalysts for various diseases, prompting widespread cellular demise. Mounting research on remedying damaged mitochondria indicates that mitochondria constitute a valuable target for therapeutic intervention against diseases. But the less clinical practice and lower recovery rate imply the limitation of traditional drugs, which need a further breakthrough. Nanotechnology has approached favorable regiospecific biodistribution and high efficacy by capitalizing on excellent nanomaterials and targeting drug delivery. Mitochondria-remedying nanodrugs have achieved ideal therapeutic effects. This review elucidates the significance of mitochondria in various cells and organs, while also compiling mortality data for related diseases. Correspondingly, nanodrug-mediate therapeutic strategies and applicable mitochondria-remedying nanodrugs in disease are detailed, with a full understanding of the roles of mitochondria dysfunction and the advantages of nanodrugs. In addition, the future challenges and directions are widely discussed. In conclusion, this review provides comprehensive insights into the design and development of mitochondria-remedying nanodrugs, aiming to help scientists who desire to extend their research fields and engage in this interdisciplinary subject.

Abstract
The survival rate of flap is a crucial factor for determining the success of tissue repair and reconstruction. Flap transplantation surgery often leads to ischemic and reperfusion injury, causing apoptosis and tissue necrosis, which significantly reduces the survival rate of flap. To address this issue, we developed a porcine skin decellularized matrix gel nanocomplex loaded with alprostadil (Alp) in Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs) called Alp@PB-Gel. This gel not only maintained the cell affinity of the extracellular scaffold but also exhibited a high degree of plasticity. In vitro assays demonstrated that Alp@PB-Gel possessed antioxidant activity, scavenging ROS ability, and effectively promoted the angiogenesis and migration of human vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) by stimulating the proliferation of vascular epithelial cells and fibroblasts. In vivo assays further confirmed that Alp@PB-Gel could effectively alleviate necrosis in the early and late stages after surgery, downregulate the levels of NLRP3 and CD68 to inhibit apoptosis and attenuate inflammation, while upregulate the levels of VEGF and CD31 to promote vascular tissue regeneration. Moreover, Alp@PB-Gel exhibited excellent cell affinity and biocompatibility, highlighting its potential for clinical application.

Abstract
Thermoresponsive wound dressings with real-time monitoring and on-demand drug delivery have gained significant attention recently. However, such smart systems with stable temperature adjustment and drug release control are still lacking. Here, a novel smart fabric is designed for wound management with thermoresponsive drug delivery and simultaneously temperature monitoring. The triple layers of the fabrics are composed of the drug-loaded thermoresponsive nanofiber film, the MXene-optimized joule heating film, and the FPCB control chip. The precise and stable temperature stimulation can be easily achieved by applying a low voltage (0-4 V) to the heating film, achieving the temperature control ranging from 25 to 130 °C. And the temperature of the wound region can be monitored and adjusted in real time, demonstrating an accurate and low-voltage joule heating capability. Based on that, the drug-loaded film achieved precise thermoresponsive drug release and obtained significant antibacterial effects in vitro. The in vivo experiments also proved the hybrid fabric system with a notable antibacterial effect and accelerated wound healing process (about 30% faster than the conventional gauze group).

Abstract
Chronic diabetic wounds are a serious complication of diabetes and often result in limb amputations and confer high mortality rates. The proinflammatory secretome in the wound perpetuates defective neovascularization and contributes to dysregulated tissue repair. This study aims to design a gelatin methacrylamide (GelMA) hydrogel to sustained the release of grancalcin-neutralizing antibody (GCA-NAb) and evaluate it as a potential scaffold to promote diabetic wound healing. Results show that the expression of grancalcin(GCA), a protein secreted by bone marrow-derived immune cells, is elevated in the wound sites of individuals and animals with diabetic ulcers. Genetic inhibition of grancalcin expression accelerates vascularization and healing in an animal model. Mechanistic studies show that grancalcin binds to transient receptor potential melastatin 8(TRPM8) and partially inactivates its downstream signaling pathways, thereby impairing angiogenesis in vitro and ex vivo. Systemic or topical administration of a GCA-NAb accelerate wound repair in mice with diabetes. The data suggest that GCA is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetic ulcers.

[PMID: 37957786 DOI: 10.1002/adhm.202303460] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023]
Abstract
Self-pumping dressings become one of the optimal solutions for the controlled management of chronic diabetic wound exudate and wound healing. However, present self-pumping dressings are not only prone to breakage of the loose hydrophobic layer but also have cumbersome and complicated preparation steps, which hinder the application of self-pumping dressings in diabetic wound treatment. Herein, a novel self-pumping structure of superabsorbent Janus dressing is designed to improve the strength of the hydrophobic layer and promote diabetic wound healing. The Janus dressing consists of a hydrophobic layer with a drainage agent (drainage layer) and a fluffy 3D nanofiber cotton (absorbent layer). Regardless of the thickness of the drainage layer, the drainage agent in the drainage layer provides the fluid to penetrate the drainage layer to the absorbent layer for unidirectional fluid draining. In design proof, the superabsorbent Janus dressing provides unidirectional drainage of inflammatory exudate and regulation of macrophage polarization, resulting in faster diabetic wound healing than single-layer dressings. Thus, the Janus dressing demonstrates important clinical implications to offer a novel design and preparation strategy for accelerating diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
The management of diabetic wounds poses a substantial economic and medical burden for diabetic patients. Oxidative stress and persistent bacterial infections are considered to be the primary factors. Qiai essential oil (QEO) exhibits various pharmacological characteristics, including inflammatory-reducing, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. Nevertheless, the hydrophobic nature and propensity for explosive release of this substance present constraints on its potential for future applications. Here, we developed a stimulus-responsive hydrogel to overcome the multiple limitations of QEO-based wound dressings. The QEO was encapsulated within graphene oxide (GO) through repeated extrusion using an extruder. Subsequently, QEO@GO nanoparticles were incorporated into a Gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel. The QEO@GO-GelMA hydrogel demonstrated controlled release ablation, photothermal antibacterial effects, and contact ablation against two representative bacterial strains. It effectively reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, promoted angiogenesis, and decreased levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6), thereby accelerating the healing process of diabetic wounds. In addition, in vitro and in vivo tests provided further evidence of the favorable biocompatibility of this multifunctional hydrogel dressing. Overall, the QEO@GO-GelMA hydrogel provides numerous benefits, encompassing antimicrobial properties, ROS-scavenging abilities, anti-inflammatory effects, and the capacity to expedite diabetic wound healing. These attributes make it an optimal choice for diabetic wound management.

Abstract
Intense and persistent oxidative stress, excessive inflammation, and impaired angiogenesis severely hinder diabetic wound healing. Bioactive hydrogel dressings with immunoregulatory and proangiogenic properties have great promise in treating diabetic wounds. However, the therapeutic effects of dressings always depend on drugs with side effects, expensive cytokines, and cell therapies. Herein, a novel dynamic borate-bonds crosslinked hybrid multifunctional hydrogel dressings with photothermal properties are developed to regulate the microenvironment of diabetic wound sites and accelerate the whole process of its healing without additional medication. The hydrogel is composed of phenylboronic acid-modified chitosan and hyaluronic acid (HA) crosslinked by tannic acid (TA) through borate bonds and Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) with photothermal response characteristics are embedded in the polymer networks. The results indicate hydrogels show inherent broad-spectrum antioxidative activities through the integrated interaction of borate bonds, TA, and PBNPs. Meanwhile, combined with the regulation of macrophage phenotype by HA, the inflammatory microenvironment of diabetic wounds is transformed. Moreover, the angiogenesis is then enhanced by the mild photothermal effect of PBNPs, followed by promoted epithelialization and collagen deposition. In summary, this hybrid hydrogel system accelerates all stages of wound repair through antioxidative stress, immunomodulation, and proangiogenesis, showing great potential applications in diabetic wound management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a prevalent inflammatory autoimmune disease characterised by persistent inflammation and joint damage with elevated levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Current treatment modalities for RA have significant limitations, including poor bioavailability, severe side effects, and inadequate targeting of inflamed joints. Herein, we synthesised cerium/manganese oxide nanoparticles (NPs) as efficient drug carriers with antioxidant and catalytic-like functions that can eliminate ROS to facilitate the polarization of macrophages phenotype from M1 to M2 and alleviate inflammation. Methotrexate (MTX), a first-line RA medication, was loaded into the NPs, which were further modified with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and integrated into dissolving hyaluronic acid-based microneedles (MNs) for transdermal delivery. RESULT This innovative approach significantly enhanced drug delivery efficiency, reduced RA inflammation, and successfully modulated macrophage polarization toward an anti-inflammatory phenotype. CONCLUSION This research not only presents a promising drug delivery strategy for RA but also contributes broadly to the field of immune disease treatment by offering an advanced approach for macrophage phenotypic reprogramming.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the prevalence of chronic wounds, such as pressure ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and venous ulcers of the lower extremities. The main contributors to chronic wound formation are bacterial infection, prolonged inflammation, and peripheral vascular disease. However, effectively treating these chronic wounds remains a global challenge. Hydrogels have extensively explored as wound healing dressing because of their excellent biocompatibility and structural similarity to extracellular matrix (ECM). Nonetheless, much is still unknown how the hydrogels promote wound repair and regeneration. Signaling pathways play critical roles in wound healing process by controlling and coordinating cells and biomolecules. Hydrogels, along with their therapeutic ingredients that impact signaling pathways, have the potential to significantly enhance the wound healing process and its ultimate outcomes. Understanding this interaction will undoubtedly provide new insights into developing advanced hydrogels for wound repair and regeneration. This paper reviews the latest studies on classical signaling pathways and potential targets influenced by hydrogel scaffolds in chronic wound healing. This work hopes that it will offer a different perspective in developing more efficient hydrogels for treating chronic wounds.

Abstract
Bacterial infection and oxidative stress impede clinical wound healing. Herein, the plant-derived cowberry extract (CE) was first explored as a natural photothermal agent and antioxidant to deal with bacterial infection and oxidative stress. After loading in the carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCs)/oxidized dextran (Odex) hydrogel, the photothermal effect of CE was highly enhanced by CMCs. The controlled temperature induced by CE-containing hydrogel under NIR laser irradiation could rapidly (10 min) and effectively kill Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus, 99.3 %) and Escherichia coli (E. coli, 94.6 %). Besides, this hydrogel exhibited a fast gelation and hemostasis abilities, high stability, adhesion and ROS scavenging capabilities, as well as good injectability and biocompatibility. Above superior properties make this hydrogel to accelerate the wound healing in S. aureus-infected mice, and it is expected to be a potential clinical wound dressing.

[PMID: 38296940 PMCID: PMC10831079 DOI: 10.1038/s41368-023-00271-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/28/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 12/24/2023] [Indexed: 02/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetes has long been considered a risk factor in implant therapy and impaired wound healing in soft and hard oral tissues. Magnesium has been proved to promote bone healing under normal conditions. Here, we elucidate the mechanism by which Mg2+ promotes angiogenesis and osseointegration in diabetic status. We generated a diabetic mice model and demonstrated the alveolar bone healing was compromised, with significantly decreased angiogenesis. We then developed Mg-coating implants with hydrothermal synthesis. These implants successfully improved the vascularization and osseointegration in diabetic status. Mechanically, Mg2+ promoted the degradation of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and the nucleation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) by up-regulating the expression of sestrin 2 (SESN2) in endothelial cells, thus reducing the elevated levels of oxidative stress in mitochondria and relieving endothelial cell dysfunction under hyperglycemia. Altogether, our data suggested that Mg2+ promoted angiogenesis and osseointegration in diabetic mice by regulating endothelial mitochondrial metabolism.

Abstract
Understanding the complex interplay of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines is crucial in the field of wound healing, as it holds the key to developing effective therapeutics. In the initial stages of wound healing, pro-inflammatory cytokines like IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and various chemokines play vital roles in recruiting cells for debris clearance and the recruitment of growth factors. Careful regulation and timely resolution of this early inflammation are essential for optimal wound repair. As the healing process progresses, anti-inflammatory proteins such as IL-10 and IL-4 become instrumental in facilitating the transition to later stages where pro-inflammatory cytokines promote angiogenesis and wound remodeling. This Perspective underscores the complexity of inflammatory cytokines in wound healing research and emphasizes the need for comprehensive and unbiased methodologies in their evaluation. For robust and reliable results in wound-healing research, a more holistic approach is necessary-one that considers the roles, interactions, and timing of biological molecules, alongside careful sampling and evaluation strategies.

Abstract
The healing of diabetic wounds is hindered by various factors, including bacterial infection, macrophage dysfunction, excess proinflammatory cytokines, high levels of reactive oxygen species, and sustained hypoxia. These factors collectively impede cellular behaviors and the healing process. Consequently, this review presents intelligent hydrogels equipped with multifunctional capacities, which enable them to dynamically respond to the microenvironment and accelerate wound healing in various ways, including stimuli -responsiveness, injectable self-healing, shape -memory, and conductive and real-time monitoring properties. The relationship between the multiple functions and wound healing is also discussed. Based on the microenvironment of diabetic wounds, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and pro-angiogenic strategies are combined with multifunctional hydrogels. The application of multifunctional hydrogels in the repair of diabetic wounds is systematically discussed, aiming to provide guidelines for fabricating hydrogels for diabetic wound healing and exploring the role of intelligent hydrogels in the therapeutic processes.

Abstract
The complex wound environment of diabetic wounds leads to poor treatment efficacy, and the inflammatory disorders and vascular injury are the primary causes of death in such patients. Herein, a sprayable, controllable adaptive, pH-responsive nanosystem of molybdate and oligosaccharide (CMO) is specially developed as an immunomodulatory and angiogenesis-promotion material for diabetic wound healing. CMO exhibited pH-responsive release of Mo2+ and oligosaccharide (COS), specifically in response to the alkalescent environment observed in diabetic wounds. CMO provide an anti-inflammatory environment by promoting M2 polarization through significantly stimulating macrophage mitochondrial function. Specifically, CMO with a certain concentration reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) expression, and upregulated mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and interleukin 10 (IL-10) expression in macrophages. Moreover, CMO facilitate angiogenesis via upregulating the PI3K/HIF-1α/VEGF pathway-a critical process for the formation of new blood vessels that supply nutrients and oxygen to the healing tissue. Remarkably, CMO promote cell viability and migration of endothelial cells, and enhance the expression of angiogenic genes. In vitro and in vivo studies suggest this simple but powerful nanosystem targeting mitochondrial function has the potential to become an effective treatment for diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
Infected wounds pose a serious threat to public health and pose a significant challenge and financial burden worldwide. The treatment of infected wounds is now an urgent problem to be solved. Herein, mild hyperthermia-assisted hydrogels composed of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCs), oxidized dextran (Odex), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and PtNPs@PVP (CAT-like nanoenzymes) were proposed for the repair of infected wounds. The incorporation of PtNPs@PVP nanoenzymes give the hydrogels excellent photothermal property and CAT-like activity. When the temperature is maintained at 42-45 °C under 808 nm near infrared (NIR) exposure, the CMCs/Odex/EGCG/Nanoenzymes (COEN2) hydrogel demonstrated highly enhanced antibacterial ability (95.9 % in vivo), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) scavenging ratio (85.1 % in vitro) and oxygen supply (20.7 mg/L in vitro). Furthermore, this mild-heat stimulation also promoted angiogenesis in the damaged skin area. Overall, this multifunctional hydrogel with antibacterial, antioxidant, oxygen supply, hemostasis, and angiogenesis capabilities has shown great promise in the repair of infected wounds. This study establishes the paradigm of enhanced infected wound healing by mild hyperthermia-assisted H2O2 scavenging, oxygen supplemental, and photothermal antibacterial hydrogels.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:126854.

Abstract
Melanoma excision surgery is usually accompanied by neoplasm residual, tissue defect, and bacterial infection, resulting in high tumor recurrence and chronic wound. Nanocomposite hydrogels can satisfy the twin requirements of avoiding tumor recurrence and skin wound healing following skin melanoma surgery due to their photothermal anti-tumor and anti-bacterial activities. In this study, carboxymethyl chitosan, oxidized fucoidan and polyphenol-metal nanoparticle (PMN) of tannic acid capped gold nanoparticles were used to fabricate multifunctional nanocomposite hydrogels through Schiff base reaction. The prepared hydrogel demonstrated outstanding photothermal effect, and the controlled high temperature will rapidly kill melanoma cells as well as bacteria within 10 min. Good injectability, self-healing and adhesion combined with high reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging capacity, hemostasis and biocompatibility made this hydrogel platform perfect for the postoperative treatment of melanoma and promoting wound healing. With the assistance of NIR irradiance, hydrogel can inhibit tumor tissue proliferation and promote tumor cell apoptosis, thereby helping to prevent melanoma recurrence after surgical removal of tumors. Simultaneously, the irradiance heat and polyphenol component kill bacteria on the wound surface, eliminate ROS, inhibit inflammatory responses, and promote angiogenesis, collagen deposition, and skin regeneration, all of which help to speed up wound healing.

Abstract
It has been demonstrated that cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) accelerates the wound healing process, however the underlying molecular pathways behind this effect remain unclear. Thus, the goal of the proposed investigation is to elucidate the therapeutic advantages of CAP on angiogenesis, pyroptotic, oxidative stress, and inflammatory mediators during the wound-healing mechanisms associated with diabetes. Intraperitoneal administration of streptozotocin (STZ, 60 mg/Kg) of body weight was used to induce type-1 diabetes. Seventy-five male mice were randomized into 3 groups: the control non-diabetic group, the diabetic group that was not treated, and the diabetic group that was treated with CAP. The key mediators of pyroptosis and its impact on the slow healing process of diabetic wounds were examined using histological investigations employing H&E staining, immunohistochemistry, ELISA, and Western blotting analysis. Angiogenesis proteins (VEGF, Ang-1, and HO-1) showed a significant decline in expression concentrations in the diabetic wounds, indicating that diabetic animals' wounds were less likely to heal. Furthermore, compared to the controls, the major mediators of pyroptosis (NLRP-3, IL-1β, and caspase-1), oxidative stress (iNOS and NO), and inflammation (TNF-α and IL-6) have higher expression levels in the diabetic wounds. These factors substantially impede the healing mechanism of diabetic wounds. Interestingly, our results disclosed the therapeutic impacts of CAP treatment in the healing process of diabetic wounds via significantly regulating the expression levels of angiogenesis, pyroptosis, oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory mediators. Our findings demonstrated the curative likelihood of CAP and the underlying mechanisms for enhancing the healing process of diabetic wounds.

Abstract
CONTEXT Diabetic wounds (DW) are a complication of diabetes and slow wound healing is the main manifestation. Methylene blue (MB) has been shown to exhibit therapeutic effects on diabetes-related diseases. OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanisms of action of MB-nanoemulsion (NE) in the treatment of DW. MATERIALS AND METHODS The concentration of MB-NE used in the in vivo and in vitro experiments was 0.1 mg/mL. Streptozocin-induced diabetic mice were used as models. The mice were separated into nondiabetic, diabetic, MB-NE treated, and NE-treated groups. Intervention of high glucose-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells using MB-NE. The mechanism by which MB-NE promotes DW healing is investigated by combining histological analysis, immunofluorescence analysis, TUNEL and ROS assays and western blotting. RESULTS In diabetic mice, the MB-NE accelerated DW healing (p < 0.05), promoted the expression of endothelial cell markers (α-SMA, CD31 and VEGF) (p < 0.05), and reduced TUNEL levels. In vitro, MB accelerated the migration rate of cells (p < 0.05); promoted the expression of CD31, VEGF, anti-apoptotic protein Bcl2 (p < 0.05) and decreased the expression of the pro-apoptotic proteins cleaved caspase-3 and Bax (p < 0.05). MB upregulated the expression of Nrf2, catalase, HO-1 and SOD2 (p < 0.05). In addition, MB reduced the immunofluorescence intensity of TUNEL and ROS in cells and reduced apoptosis. The therapeutic effect of MB was attenuated after treatment with an Nrf2 inhibitor (ML385). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION This study provides a foundation for the application of MB-NE in the treatment of DW.

Abstract
Most hydrogel dressings are designed for skin wounds in flat areas, and few are focused on the joint skin regions which undergo frequent movement. The mismatch of mechanical properties and poor fit between a hydrogel dressing and a wound in joint skin results in hydrogel shedding, bacterial infection and delayed healing. Therefore, it is of great significance to design and prepare a multifunctional hydrogel with high tensile and tissue-adhesive strength as well as other therapeutic effects for the treatment of joint skin wounds. In this work, a multifunctional hydrogel was reasonably prepared by simply mixing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), borax, tannic acid (TA) and iron(III) chloride in certain proportions, which was further used to treat the skin wounds at the joint of the hind limb. Acting as the physical crosslinkers, borax and TA dynamically bond with PVA and provide the resulting hydrogel with strong tensile, fast shape-adaptive and self-healing properties. The photothermal bacteriostatic activity of the hydrogel is attributed to the formation of a metallic polyphenol network (MPN) between ferric ions and TA. In addition, the hydrogel exhibits high levels of adhesion, hemostatic performance, antioxidant abilities, and biocompatibility, and shows great potential to promote joint skin wound healing.

Abstract
Wound healing is a dynamic and complex process in which the microenvironment at the wound site plays an important role. As a common material for wound healing, dressings accelerate wound healing and prevent external wound infections. Hydrogels have become a hot topic in wound-dressing research because of their high water content, good biocompatibility, and adjustable physical and chemical properties. Intelligent hydrogel dressings have attracted considerable attention because of their excellent environmental responsiveness. As smart polymer hydrogels, thermosensitive hydrogels can respond to small temperature changes in the environment, and their special properties make them superior to other hydrogels. This review mainly focuses on the research progress in thermosensitive intelligent hydrogel dressings for wound healing. Polymers suitable for hydrogel formation and the appropriate molecular design of the hydrogel network to achieve thermosensitive hydrogel properties are discussed, followed by the application of thermosensitive hydrogels as wound dressings. We also discuss the future perspectives of thermosensitive hydrogels as wound dressings and provide systematic theoretical support for wound healing.

Abstract
Cytoskeleton plays a significant role in the shape change, migration, movement, adhesion, cytokinesis, and phagocytosis of tumor cells. In clinical practice, some anti-cancer drugs achieve cytoskeletal therapeutic effects by acting on different cytoskeletal protein components. However, in the absence of cell-specific targeting, unnecessary cytoskeletal recombination in organisms would be disastrous, which would also bring about severe side effects during anticancer process. Nanomedicine have been proven to be superior to some small molecule drugs in cancer treatment due to better stability and targeting, and lower side effects. Therefore, this review summarized the recent developments of various nanomaterials disturbing cytoskeleton for enhanced cancer therapeutics, including carbon, noble metals, metal oxides, black phosphorus, calcium, silicon, polymers, peptides, and metal-organic frameworks, etc. A comprehensive analysis of the characteristics of cytoskeleton therapy as well as the future prospects and challenges towards clinical application were also discussed. We aim to drive on this emerging topic through refreshing perspectives based on our own work and what we have also learnt from others. This review will help researchers quickly understand relevant cytoskeletal therapeutic information to further advance the development of cancer nanomedicine.

Abstract
With the increasing prevalence of microbial infections, which results in prolonged inflammation and delayed wound healing, the development of effective and safe antimicrobial wound dressings of multiple properties remains challenging for public health. Despite their various formats, the available developed dressings with limited functions may not fulfill the diverse demands involved in the complex wound healing process. In this study, multifunctional sandwich-structured electrospinning nanofiber membranes (ENMs) were fabricated. According to the structural composition, the obtained ENMs included a hydrophilic inner layer loaded with curcumin and gentamicin sulfate, an antibacterial middle layer consisting of bovine serum albumin stabilized silver oxide nanoparticles, and a hydrophobic outer layer. The prepared sandwich-structured ENMs (SNM) exhibited good biocompatibility and killing efficacy on Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA). In particular, transcriptomic analysis revealed that SNM inactivated MRSA by inhibiting its carbohydrate and energy metabolism and reduced the bacterial resistance by downregulating mecA. In the animal experiment, SNM showed improved wound healing efficiency by reducing the bacterial load and inflammation. Moreover, 16S rDNA sequencing results indicated that SNM treatment may accelerate wound healing without observed influence on the normal skin flora. Therefore, the constructed sandwich-structured ENMs exhibited promising potential as dressings to deal with the infected wound management.

Abstract
Oxidative stress microenvironment caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation seriously hinders wound healing in diabetes, which brings great burden to global health. Various wound dressings on the market focus on delivering active substances to promote wound healing in diabetes. However, the complex pathological microenvironment of diabetic wounds often leads to the inactivation of delivery factors, which often leads to treatment failure, and thus, emerging therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. In this study, a macromolecular hydrogel synthesized by crosslinking N-carboxyethyl chitosan, hyaluronic acid-aldehyde, and adipic acid dihydrazide, with self-healing and injectable abilities was used to deliver total glycosides of paeony (TGP). The TGP incorporated hydrogel could obviously induce fibroblasts proliferation and secretion of various extracellular matrix proteins and growth factors, induce migration and angiogenesis of vein endothelial cells, and enhance macrophages polarization to M2 phenotype by eliminating accumulated ROS. In diabetic wound models, the ROS-scavenging hydrogel efficiently enhanced proliferation, re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, as well as angiogenesis in the wound area. Besides, the dressing induced the macrophages polarization from M1 phenotype (pro-inflammatory) to M2 phenotype (anti-inflammatory) and decreased the levels of inflammatory cytokines, thereby enhancing the diabetic wound healing. The wounds treated with TGP incorporated hydrogel almost completely healed 16 days after treatment. However, the residual wound areas in the groups of Con, INTRA, and Gel are 55.2 ± 4.6 %, 33.7 ± 6.5 %, and 34.9 ± 6.1 % on the 16th day, respectively. This hydrogel with pathological microenvironment improvement ability affords a novel therapeutic strategy for enhancing healing of chronic diabetic wound.

Abstract
Antibiotic therapy can induce the generation of severe bacterial resistance, further challenging the usability of currently available drugs and treatment options. Therefore, it is essential to develop new strategies to effectively eradicate drug-resistant bacteria. Herein, we have reported a combinational strategy for the eradication of drug-resistant bacteria by using chlorin e6 (Ce6) loaded Prussian blue nanoparticles (PB NPs). This nanocomplex showed strong catalase activity and photodynamic properties. In vitro experiments demonstrated that CPB-Ce6 NPs effectively kill MRSA by generating ROS under laser irradiation. Meanwhile, the nano-enzyme activity of CPB NPs can decompose H2O2 in the bacterial microenvironment to upregulate the O2 level, which in turn alleviates hypoxia in the microenvironment and improves the antibacterial effect of PDT. In vivo results demonstrated that CPB-Ce6 NPs with laser irradiation effectively cleared MRSA and promoted infected wound repair in a diabetic mouse model and normal mice through upregulating VEGF. Moreover, CPB-Ce6 NPs showed excellent biosafety profiles in vitro and in vivo. From our point of view, this PDT based on PB NPs with nano-enzyme activity may provide an effective treatment for infections associated with drug-resistant microbes and tissue repair.

Abstract
Diabetic wound healing has become a serious healthcare challenge. The high-glucose environment leads to persistent bacterial infection and mitochondrial dysfunction, resulting in chronic inflammation, abnormal vascular function, and tissue necrosis. To solve these issues, we developed a double-network hydrogel, constructed with pluronic F127 diacrylate (F127DA) and hyaluronic acid methacrylate (HAMA), and enhanced by SS31-loaded mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles (MPDA NPs). As components, SS31, a mitochondria-targeted peptide, maintains mitochondrial function, reduces mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and thus regulates macrophage polarization, as well as promoting cell proliferation and migration, while MPDA NPs not only scavenge ROS and exert an anti-bacterial effect by photothermal treatment under near-infrared light irradiation, but also control release of SS31 in response to ROS. This F127DA/HAMA-MPDA@SS31 (FH-M@S) hydrogel has characteristics of adhesion, superior biocompatibility and mechanical properties which can adapt to irregular wounds at different body sites and provide sustained release of MPDA@SS31 (M@S) NPs. In addition, in a diabetic rat full thickness skin defect model, the FH-M@S hydrogel promoted macrophage M2 polarization, collagen deposition, neovascularization and wound healing. Therefore, the FH-M@S hydrogel exhibits promising therapeutic potential for skin regeneration.

Abstract
A chronic wound is a serious complication associated with diabetes mellitus and is difficult to heal due to high glucose levels, oxidative stress, and biofilm-associated microbial infection. The structural complexity of microbial biofilm makes it impossible for antibiotics to penetrate the matrix, hence conventional antibiotic therapies became ineffective in clinical settings. This demonstrates an urgent need to find safer alternatives to reduce the prevalence of chronic wound infection associated with microbial biofilm. A novel approach to address these concerns is to inhibit biofilm formation using biological-macromolecule based nano-delivery system. Higher drug loading efficiency, sustained drug release, enhanced drug stability, and improved bioavailability are advantages of employing nano-drug delivery systems to prevent microbial colonization and biofilm formation in chronic wounds. This review covers the pathogenesis, microbial biofilm formation, and immune response to chronic wounds. Furthermore, we also focus on macromolecule-based nanoparticles as wound healing therapies to reduce the increased mortality associated with chronic wound infections.

Abstract
Prussian Blue Nanozymes (PBNZs) have emerged as highly efficient agents for reactive oxygen species (ROS) elimination, owing to their multiple enzyme-like properties encompassing catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities. As a functional nanomaterial mimicking enzyme, PBNZs not only surmount the limitations of natural enzymes, such as instability and high manufacturing costs, but also exhibit superior stability, tunable activity, low storage expenses, and remarkable reusability. Consequently, PBNZs have gained significant attention in diverse biomedical applications, including disease diagnosis and therapy. Over the past decade, propelled by advancements in catalysis science, biotechnology, computational science, and nanotechnology, PBNZs have witnessed remarkable progress in the exploration of their enzymatic activities, elucidation of catalytic mechanisms, and wide-ranging applications. This comprehensive review aims to provide a systematic overview of the discovery and catalytic mechanisms of PBNZ, along with the strategies employed to modulate their multiple enzyme-like activities. Furthermore, we extensively survey the recent advancements in utilizing PBNZs for scavenging ROS in various biomedical applications. Lastly, we analyze the existing challenges of translating PBNZs into therapeutic agents for clinical use and outline future research directions in this field. By presenting a comprehensive synopsis of the current state of knowledge, this review seeks to contribute to a deeper understanding of the immense potential of PBNZs as an innovative therapeutic agent in biomedicine.

Abstract
The slow healing of diabetic wounds has seriously affected human health. Meanwhile, the open wounds are susceptible to bacterial infection. Clinical therapeutic methods such as antibiotic therapy, insulin treatment, and surgical debridement have made great achievements in the treatment of diabetic wounds. However, drug-resistant bacteria will develop after long-term use of antibiotics, resulting in decreased efficacy. To improve the therapeutic effect, increasing drug concentration is a common strategy in clinical practice, but it also brings serious side effects. In addition, hyperglycemia control or surgical debridement can easily bring negative effects to patients, such as hypoglycemia or damage of normal tissue. Therefore, it is essential to develop novel therapeutic strategies to effectively promote diabetic wound healing. In recent years, nanozyme-based diabetic wound therapeutic systems have received extensive attention because they possess the advantages of nanomaterials and natural enzymes. For example, nanozymes have the advantages of a small size and a high surface area to volume ratio, which can enhance the tissue penetration of nanozymes and increase the reactive active sites. Moreover, compared with natural enzymes, nanozymes have more stable catalytic activity, lower production cost, and stronger operability. In this review, we first reviewed the basic characteristics of diabetic wounds and then elaborated on the catalytic mechanism and action principle of different types of nanozymes in diabetic wounds from three aspects: controlling bacterial infection, controlling hyperglycemia, and relieving inflammation. Finally, the challenges, prospects and future implementation of nanozymes for diabetic wound healing are outlined.

Eco-friendly chitosan-based nanostructures in diabetes mellitus therapy: Promising bioplatforms with versatile therapeutic perspectives. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2023; 228:115912.

Abstract
Nature-derived polymers, or biopolymers, are among the most employed materials for the development of nanocarriers. Chitosan (CS) is derived from the acetylation of chitin, and this biopolymer displays features such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, low toxicity, and ease of modification. CS-based nano-scale delivery systems have been demonstrated to be promising carriers for drug and gene delivery, and they can provide site-specific delivery of cargo. Owing to the high biocompatibility of CS-based nanocarriers, they can be used in the future in clinical trials. On the other hand, diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic disease that can develop due to a lack of insulin secretion or insulin sensitivity. Recently, CS-based nanocarriers have been extensively applied for DM therapy. Oral delivery of insulin is the most common use of CS nanoparticles in DM therapy, and they improve the pharmacological bioavailability of insulin. Moreover, CS-based nanostructures with mucoadhesive features can improve oral bioavailability of insulin. CS-based hydrogels have been developed for the sustained release of drugs and the treatment of DM complications such as wound healing. Furthermore, CS-based nanoparticles can mediate delivery of phytochemicals and other therapeutic agents in DM therapy, and they are promising compounds for the treatment of DM complications, including nephropathy, neuropathy, and cardiovascular diseases, among others. The surface modification of nanostructures with CS can improve their properties in terms of drug delivery and release, biocompatibility, and others, causing high attention to these nanocarriers in DM therapy.

Abstract
The imbalance of local and systemic factors in individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM) delays, or even interrupts, the highly complex and dynamic process of wound healing, leading to diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) in 15 to 25% of cases. DFU is the leading cause of non-traumatic amputations worldwide, posing a huge threat to the well-being of individuals with DM and the healthcare system. Moreover, despite all the latest efforts, the efficient management of DFUs still remains a clinical challenge, with limited success rates in treating severe infections. Biomaterial-based wound dressings have emerged as a therapeutic strategy with rising potential to handle the tricky macro and micro wound environments of individuals with DM. Indeed, biomaterials have long been related to unique versatility, biocompatibility, biodegradability, hydrophilicity, and wound healing properties, features that make them ideal candidates for therapeutic applications. Furthermore, biomaterials may be used as a local depot of biomolecules with anti-inflammatory, pro-angiogenic, and antimicrobial properties, further promoting adequate wound healing. Accordingly, this review aims to unravel the multiple functional properties of biomaterials as promising wound dressings for chronic wound healing, and to examine how these are currently being evaluated in research and clinical settings as cutting-edge wound dressings for DFU management.

Abstract
Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) in wound lesions can lead to oxidative stress and failure of normal wound healing processes, eventually resulting in chronic skin wounds. A multitude of researchers have investigated various natural products with physiological activities, including antioxidant effects, for healing chronic skin wounds. Balloon flower root (BFR), which contains bioactive components such as platycodins, is known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. In this study, we isolated BFR-derived extracellular vesicles (BFR-EVs) that possess anti-inflammatory, proliferative, and antioxidant activities via a combination of polyethylene glycol-based precipitation and ultracentrifugation. Our objective was to investigate the potential of BFR-EVs in treating chronic wounds caused by ROS. Despite efficient intracellular delivery, BFR-EVs showed no significant cytotoxicity. In addition, BFR-EVs inhibited the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine genes in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Furthermore, water-soluble tetrazolium salt-8 assay showed that BFR-EVs had a proliferation-promoting effect on human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs). Scratch closure and transwell migration assays indicated that BFR-EVs could promote the migration of HDFs. When the antioxidant effect of BFR-EVs was evaluated through 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate staining and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, the results revealed that BFR-EVs significantly suppressed ROS generation and oxidative stress induced by H2O2 and ultraviolet irradiation. Our findings suggest that BFR-EVs hold the potential as a natural candidate for healing chronic skin wounds.

Abstract
Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a transcription factor that regultes the cellular antioxidant defense system at the posttranscriptional level. During oxidative stress, Nrf2 is released from its negative regulator Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and binds to antioxidant response element (ARE) to transcribe antioxidative metabolizing/detoxifying genes. Various transcription factors like aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and nuclear factor kappa light chain enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) and epigenetic modification including DNA methylation and histone methylation might also regulate the expression of Nrf2. Despite its protective role, Keap1/Nrf2/ARE signaling is considered as a pharmacological target due to its involvement in various pathophysiological conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, hepatotoxicity and kidney disorders. Recently, nanomaterials have received a lot of attention due to their unique physiochemical properties and are also used in various biological applications, for example, biosensors, drug delivery systems, cancer therapy, etc. In this review, we will be discussing the functions of nanoparticles and Nrf2 as a combined therapy or sensitizing agent and their significance in various diseases such as diabetes, cancer and oxidative stress-mediated diseases.

Abstract
Non-healing wounds in patients with diabetes are a concerning issue associated with amputation and a high mortality rate. These wounds are exacerbated by oxidative stress and microbial infections resulting from hyperglycemia. Therefore, advanced materials for repairing wound beds must be identified urgently. This paper introduces a topically applicable composite hydrogel with thermosensitive properties and presents the antibacterial and antioxidant activities in mice with diabetes-induced wounds. This composite is developed by combining poly N-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM)-copolymerized HEMIN (NIPAM-co-HEMIN) and amine-modified alginate (ALG-EDA) biomaterials, with Ag nanoparticles (AgNPs) incorporated into the system as an antibacterial agent. Results of antibacterial tests show that the p(NIPAM-co-HEMIN)/ALG-EDA/AgNP composite system is effective against E. coli and S. aureus. Additionally, the AgNP composite exhibits low cellular toxicity in NIH3T3 and CT-2A cell lines. The wounds in diabetic mice treated with the composite system healed in <12 days, and the composite system accelerated the healing process by increasing collagen synthesis. In conclusion, the biocomposite reported herein is highly promising for repairing diabetic skin wounds and treating infections caused by bacterial microbes.

Abstract
Wound healing is characterized by complex, orchestrated, spatiotemporal dynamic processes. Recent findings demonstrated suitable local microenvironments were necessities for wound healing. Wound microenvironments include various biological, biochemical and physical factors, which are produced and regulated by endogenous biomediators, exogenous drugs, and external environment. Successful drug delivery to wound is complicated, and need to overcome the destroyed blood supply, persistent inflammation and enzymes, spatiotemporal requirements of special supplements, and easy deactivation of drugs. Triggered by various factors from wound microenvironment itself or external elements, stimuli-responsive biomaterials have tremendous advantages of precise drug delivery and release. Here, we discuss recent advances of stimuli-responsive biomaterials to regulate local microenvironments during wound healing, emphasizing on the design and application of different biomaterials which respond to wound biological/biochemical microenvironments (ROS, pH, enzymes, glucose and glutathione), physical microenvironments (mechanical force, temperature, light, ultrasound, magnetic and electric field), and the combination modes. Moreover, several novel promising drug carriers (microbiota, metal-organic frameworks and microneedles) are also discussed.

Abstract
Effective skin wound healing and tissue regeneration remain a challenge. Excessive/chronic inflammation inhibits wound healing, leading to scar formation. Herein, we report a wound dressing composed of KGM-GA based on the natural substances konjac glucomannan (KGM) and gallic acid (GA) that accelerates wound healing without any additional drugs. An in vitro study showed that KGM-GA could not only stimulate macrophage polarization to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype but also decrease reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, indicating excellent anti-inflammatory properties. Moreover, in vivo studies of skin wounds demonstrated that the KGM-GA dressing significantly improved wound healing by accelerating wound closure, collagen deposition, and angiogenesis. In addition, it was observed that KGM-GA regulated M2 polarization, reducing the production of intracellular ROS in the wound microenvironment, which was consistent with the in vitro experiments. Therefore, this study designed a multifunctional biomaterial with biological activity, providing a novel dressing for wound healing.

Cui J, Zhang S, Cheng S, Shen H. Current and future outlook of loaded components in hydrogel composites for the treatment of chronic diabetic ulcers. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2023; 11:1077490. [PMID: 36860881 PMCID: PMC9968980 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2023.1077490] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 02/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Due to recalcitrant microangiopathy and chronic infection, traditional treatments do not easily produce satisfactory results for chronic diabetic ulcers. In recent years, due to the advantages of high biocompatibility and modifiability, an increasing number of hydrogel materials have been applied to the treatment of chronic wounds in diabetic patients. Research on composite hydrogels has received increasing attention since loading different components can greatly increase the ability of composite hydrogels to treat chronic diabetic wounds. This review summarizes and details a variety of newly loaded components currently used in hydrogel composites for the treatment of chronic diabetic ulcers, such as polymer/polysaccharides/organic chemicals, stem cells/exosomes/progenitor cells, chelating agents/metal ions, plant extracts, proteins (cytokines/peptides/enzymes) and nucleoside products, and medicines/drugs, to help researchers understand the characteristics of these components in the treatment of diabetic chronic wounds. This review also discusses a number of components that have not yet been applied but have the potential to be loaded into hydrogels, all of which play roles in the biomedical field and may become important loading components in the future. This review provides a "loading component shelf" for researchers of composite hydrogels and a theoretical basis for the future construction of "all-in-one" hydrogels.

Abstract
After periodontal tissue injury, reconstruct soft tissue sealing around the tooth surface is of fundamental importance to treat periodontitis. Among multiple cell types, fibroblast plays a central role in reestablishing functional periodontium. To enhance fibroblast activity, a novel metal-organic framework-based nanoplatform is fabricated using mesoporous Prussian blue (MPB) nanoparticles to load baicalein (BA), named MPB-BA. Drug release test displayed sustained BA release of MPB-BA. Cell proliferation, transwell migration and wound healing tests revealed accelerated fibroblast proliferation and migration for the established MPB-BA nanoplatform. Moreover, vinculin immunofluorescence staining, western blot and quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed up-regulated vinculin protein and integrin α5 and integrin β1 gene expressions for MPB-BA, suggesting improved cell adhesion. In addition, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson trichromatic staining suggested superior anti-inflammatory and collagen fiber reconstruction effects for MPB-BA in a rat experimental periodontitis model in vivo. Our study may provide a promising strategy for the treatment of periodontitis.

Abstract
Bacteria-infected wound healing is a complex and chronic process that poses a great threat to human health. A thermo-sensitive hydrogel that undergoes a sol-gel transition at body temperature is an attractive wound dressing for healing acceleration and infection prevention. In this paper, we present a thermo-sensitive and reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging hydrogel based on polydopamine modified poly(ε-caprolactone-co-glycolide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone-co-glycolide) (PDA/P2) triblock copolymer. The PDA/P2 solution at a concentration of 30 wt% could form a gel at 34-38 °C. The ROS-scavenging ability of PDA/P2 was demonstrated by DPPH and ABTS assays and intracellular ROS downregulation in RAW264.7 cells. Furthermore, silver nanoparticles were encapsulated in the hydrogel (PDA/P2-4@Ag gel) to provide antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus. An in vivo S. aureus-infected rat model demonstrated that the PDA/P2-4@Ag hydrogel dressing could promote wound healing via inhibiting bacterial growth, alleviating the inflammatory response, and inducing angiogenesis and collagen deposition. This study provides a new strategy to prepare temperature-sensitive hydrogel-based multifunctional wound dressings.

Natural Morin-Based Metal Organic Framework Nanoenzymes Modulate Articular Cavity Microenvironment to Alleviate Osteoarthritis. RESEARCH (WASHINGTON, D.C.) 2023; 6:0068.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is always characterized as excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) inside articular cavity. Mimicking natural metalloenzymes with metal ions as the active centers, stable metal organic framework (MOF) formed by natural polyphenols and metal ions shows great potential in alleviating inflammatory diseases. Herein, a series of novel copper-morin-based MOF (CuMHs) with different molar ratios of Cu2+ and MH were employed to serve as ROS scavengers for OA therapy. As a result, CuMHs exhibited enhanced dispersion in aqueous solution, improved biocompatibility, and efficient ROS-scavenging ability compared to MH. On the basis of H2O2-stimulated chondrocytes, intracellular ROS levels were efficiently declined and cell death was prevented after treated by Cu6MH (Cu2+ and MH molar ratio of 6:1). Meanwhile, Cu6MH also exhibited efficient antioxidant and anti-inflammation function by down-regulating the expression of IL6, MMP13, and MMP3, and up-regulating cartilage specific gene expression as well. Importantly, Cu6MH could repair mitochondrial function by increasing mitochondrial membrane potential, reducing the accumulation of calcium ions, as well as promoting ATP content production. In OA joint model, intra-articular (IA) injected Cu6MH suppressed the progression of OA. It endowed that Cu6MH might be promising nanoenzymes for the prevention and treatment of various inflammatory diseases.
