Abstract
Abdominal adhesion, a serious complication of abdominal surgery, often resists mitigation by current drug administration and physical barriers. To address this issue, we developed an injectable, antifouling hydrogel through the free-radical polymerization of methacrylate chondroitin sulfate (CS-GMA) and 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) monomers, dubbed the CGM hydrogel. We systematically analyzed its physicochemical properties, including rheological strength, biocompatibility, and antifouling capabilities. A rat abdominal cecum adhesion model was constructed to assess the effectiveness of CGM hydrogel in preventing postoperative adhesion and recurrent adhesion. In addition, multi-omics analyses identified the relationship between adhesion development and CCL2/CCR2 interaction. Notably, CGM hydrogel can thwart the recruitment and aggregation of fibroblasts and macrophages by inhibiting the CCL2/CCR2 interaction. Moreover, CGM hydrogel significantly dampens the activity of fibrosis-linked cytokines (TGF-βR1) and recalibrates extracellular matrix deposition-related cytokines (t-PA and PAI-1, Col Ⅰ and MMP-9). Cumulatively, the dual action of CGM hydrogel-as a physical barrier and cytokine regulator-highlights its promising potential in clinical application for abdominal adhesion prevention.

Abstract
Tension-free abdominal wall hernia patch materials (AWHPMs) play an important role in the repair of abdominal wall defects (AWDs), which have a recurrence rate of <1%. Nevertheless, there are still significant challenges in the development of tailored, biomimetic, and extracellular matrix (ECM)-like AWHPMs that satisfy the clinical demands of abdominal wall repair (AWR) while effectively handling post-operative complications associated with abdominal hernias, such as intra-abdominal visceral adhesion and abnormal healing. This extensive review presents a comprehensive guide to the high-end fabrication and the precise selection of these advanced AWHPMs. The review begins by briefly introducing the structures, sources, and properties of AWHPMs, and critically evaluates the advantages and disadvantages of different types of AWHPMs for AWR applications. The review subsequently summarizes and elaborates upon state-of-the-art AWHPM fabrication methods and their key characteristics (e.g., mechanical, physicochemical, and biological properties in vitro/vivo). This review uses compelling examples to demonstrate that advanced AWHPMs with multiple functionalities (e.g., anti-deformation, anti-inflammation, anti-adhesion, pro-healing properties, etc.) can meet the fundamental clinical demands required to successfully repair AWDs. In particular, there have been several developments in the enhancement of biomimetic AWHPMs with multiple properties, and additional breakthroughs are expected in the near future.

Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 256:128488. [PMID: 38043653 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.128488] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2023] [Revised: 11/10/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023]
Abstract
Hydrogels are highly biocompatible biomaterials composed of crosslinked three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic polymers. Owing to their natural origin, polysaccharide-based hydrogels (PBHs) possess low toxicity, high biocompatibility and demonstrate in vivo biodegradability, making them great candidates for use in various biomedical devices, implants, and tissue engineering. In addition, many polysaccharides also show additional biological activities such as antimicrobial, anticoagulant, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, hemostatic, and anti-inflammatory, which can provide additional therapeutic benefits. The porous nature of PBHs allows for the immobilization of antibodies, aptamers, enzymes and other molecules on their surface, or within their matrix, potentiating their use in biosensor devices. Specific polysaccharides can be used to produce transparent hydrogels, which have been used widely to fabricate ocular implants. The ability of PBHs to encapsulate drugs and other actives has been utilized for making neural implants and coatings for cardiovascular devices (stents, pacemakers and venous catheters) and urinary catheters. Their high water-absorption capacity has been exploited to make superabsorbent diapers and sanitary napkins. The barrier property and mechanical strength of PBHs has been used to develop gels and films as anti-adhesive formulations for the prevention of post-operative adhesion. Finally, by virtue of their ability to mimic various body tissues, they have been explored as scaffolds and bio-inks for tissue engineering of a wide variety of organs. These applications have been described in detail, in this review.

Abstract
Amphiphilic micelles based on chitosan (CS) were applied as drug carriers of aceclofenac (ACF) as a potential method to induce its bioavailability and therapeutic efficiency. N-octyl-N,O-succinyl CS (OSCS), an amphiphilic CS derivative, was successfully synthesized and loaded physically by ACF at different pH values and using different dosages of ACF, forming ACF-loaded polymeric micelles (PMs). The obtained PMs and ACF-loaded PMs were characterized by different analytical techniques, including AFM, TEM, DLS, UV-vis spectrophotometry, 1H NMR spectroscopy, and FT-IR spectroscopy. The pH 5 sample with a 30% ACF/polymer ratio showed the highest ACF loading capacity (LC) and entrapment efficiency (EE). In vitro release behaviors of pure ACF and ACF-loaded PMs at each release point indicated that the release profile of pH-responsive PMs loaded with ACF demonstrated quicker release rates (94% after 480 min) compared to the release behavior noticed for free ACF (59.56% after 480 min). Furthermore, the release rates exhibit a notable rise when the pH is increased from 1.2 to 4.7. In the carrageenan-induced inflammation model of paw edema in rats, it has been demonstrated that the injection of ACF-loaded PMs (at a dose of 10 mg/kg) resulted in a strengthened inflammatory activity compared to the injection of free ACF at equivalent dosages as well as at time intervals. However, the use of ACF-loaded PMs for a duration of 6 h displayed a notable reduction of paw edema, with an inhibition percentage of 85.09%, in contrast to the 74.9% inhibition percentage observed for the free ACF medication.

Abstract
To reduce and prevent postsurgical adhesions, a variety of scientific approaches have been suggested and applied. This includes the use of advanced therapies like tissue-engineered (TE) biomaterials and scaffolds. Currently, biocompatible antiadhesive constructs play a pivotal role in managing postoperative adhesions and several biopolymer-based products, namely hyaluronic acid (HA) and polyethylene glycol (PEG), are available on the market in different forms (e.g., sprays, hydrogels). TE polymeric constructs are usually associated with critical limitations like poor biocompatibility and mechanical properties. Hence, biocompatible nanocomposites have emerged as an advanced therapy for postoperative adhesion treatment, with hydrogels and electrospun nanofibers among the most utilized antiadhesive nanocomposites for in vitro and in vivo experiments. Recent studies have revealed that nanocomposites can be engineered to generate smart three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds that can respond to different stimuli, such as pH changes. Additionally, nanocomposites can act as multifunctional materials for the prevention of adhesions and bacterial infections, as well as tissue healing acceleration. Still, more research is needed to reveal the clinical potential of nanocomposite constructs and the possible success of nanocomposite-based products in the biomedical market.

Abstract
As promising biomaterials, hydrogels are widely used in the medical engineering field, especially in wound repairing. Compared with traditional wound dressings, such as gauze and bandage, hydrogel could absorb and retain more water without dissolving or losing its three-dimensional structure, thus avoiding secondary injury and promoting wound healing. Chitosan and its derivatives have become hot research topics for hydrogel wound dressing production due to their unique molecular structure and diverse biological activities. In this review, the mechanism of wound healing was introduced systematically. The mechanism of action of chitosan in the first three stages of wound repair (hemostasis, antimicrobial properties and progranulation), the effect of chitosan deacetylation and the molecular weight on its performance are analyzed. Additionally, the recent progress in intelligent and drug-loaded chitosan-based hydrogels and the features and advantages of chitosan were discussed. Finally, the challenges and prospects for the future development of chitosan-based hydrogels were discussed.

Abstract
Chitosan is a kind of natural polysaccharide biomass with the second highest content in nature after cellulose, which has good biological properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, hemostasis, mucosal adsorption, non-toxicity, and antibacterial properties. Therefore, hydrogels prepared from chitosan have the advantages of good hydrophilicity, unique three-dimensional network structure, and good biocompatibility, so they have received extensive attention and research in environmental testing, adsorption, medical materials, and catalytic supports. Compared with traditional polymer hydrogels, biomass chitosan-based hydrogels have advantages such as low toxicity, excellent biocompatibility, outstanding processability, and low cost. This paper reviews the preparation of various chitosan-based hydrogels using chitosan as raw material and their applications in the fields of medical materials, environmental detection, catalytic carriers, and adsorption. Some views and prospects are put forward for the future research and development of chitosan-based hydrogels, and it is believed that chitosan-based hydrogels will be able to obtain more valuable applications.

Abstract
Postoperative peritoneal adhesions are common complications caused by abdominal and pelvic surgery, which seriously impact the quality of life of patients and impose additional financial burdens. Using of biomedical materials as physical barriers to completely isolate the traumatic organ and injured tissue is an optimal strategy for preventing postoperative adhesions. However, the limited efficacy and difficulties in the complete degradation or integration of biomedical materials with living tissues restrict the application of these materials. In this study, novel chitin-based crosslinked hydrogels with appropriate mechanical properties and flexibilities were developed using a facile and green strategy. The developed hydrogels simultaneously exhibited excellent biocompatibilities and resistance to nonspecific protein adsorption and NIH/3T3 fibroblast adhesion. Furthermore, these hydrogels were biodegradable and could be completely integrated into the native extracellular matrix. The chitin-based crosslinked hydrogels also effectively inhibited postoperative peritoneal adhesions in rat models of adhesion and recurrence. Therefore, these novel chitin-based crosslinked hydrogels are excellent candidate physical barriers for the efficient prevention of postoperative peritoneal adhesions and provide a new anti-adhesion strategy for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Postoperative abdominal adhesion is one of the most common complications after abdominal surgery. A single drug or physical barrier treatment does not achieve the ideal anti-adhesion effect. We developed a thermosensitive hydrogel (PPH hydrogel) consisting of poloxamer 407 (P407), poloxamer (P188), and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) co-blended. An injectable thermosensitive TA/MMC-PPH hydrogel was obtained by loading tannic acid (TA) with an anti-inflammatory effect and mitomycin C (MMC), which inhibits fibroblast migration or proliferation. The optimal prescriptions of PPH hydrogels with a suitable gelling time (63 s) at 37 °C was 20% (w/v) P407, 18% (w/v) P188, and 0.5% (w/v) HPMC. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the PPH hydrogel had a three-dimensional mesh structure, which was favorable for drug encapsulation. The PPH hydrogel had a suitable gelation temperature of 33 °C, a high gel strength, and complicated viscosity at 37 °C, according to the rheological analysis. In vitro release studies have shown that the PPH hydrogel could delay the release of TA and MMC and conform to the first-order release rate. Anti-adhesion tests performed on rats in vivo revealed that TA/MMC-PPH hydrogel significantly reduced the risk of postoperative adhesion. In conclusion, the TA/MMC-PPH hydrogel prepared in this study showed an excellent performance in both controlled drug release and anti-adhesive effects. It can be used as a protocol to prevent or reduce postoperative abdominal adhesion.

Abstract
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI), a chronic disease with widespread effects and an overall prevalence of up to 46% in adult women, is associated with a heavy disease burden. The clinical treatment for mild to moderate SUI is conservative, such as electrical stimulation and Kegel exercises, but the therapeutic effect is unsatisfactory, so it is imperative to seek new treatment modalities. Hydrogel microneedles (MNs) have been widely used in transdermal drug delivery because of their minimally invasive and highly biocompatible characteristics. Therefore, for the first time, we combined collagen type I with MN technology for the treatment and prevention of mild to moderate SUI.

Abstract
Wound dressings have become a crucial treatment for wound healing due to their convenience, low cost, and prolonged wound management. As cutting-edge biomaterials, marine polysaccharides are divided from most marine organisms. It possesses various bioactivities, which allowing them to be processed into various forms of wound dressings. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the application of marine polysaccharides in wound dressings is particularly important for the studies of wound therapy. In this review, we first introduce the wound healing process and describe the characteristics of modern commonly used dressings. Then, the properties of various marine polysaccharides and their application in wound dressing development are outlined. Finally, strategies for developing and enhancing marine polysaccharide wound dressings are described, and an outlook of these dressings is given. The diverse bioactivities of marine polysaccharides including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, haemostatic properties, etc., providing excellent wound management and accelerate wound healing. Meanwhile, these biomaterials have higher biocompatibility and biodegradability compared to synthetic ones. On the other hand, marine polysaccharides can be combined with copolymers and active substances to prepare various forms of dressings. Among them, emerging types of dressings such as nanofibers, smart hydrogels and injectable hydrogels are at the research frontier of their development. Therefore, marine polysaccharides are essential materials in wound dressings fabrication and have a promising future.

Abstract
After an osteosarcoma excision, recurrence and bone defects are significant challenges for clinicians. In this study, the curcumin (Cur) loaded chitosan (CS) nanoparticles (CCNP) encapsulated silk fibroin (SF)/hyaluronic acid esterified by methacrylate (HAMA) (CCNPs-SF/HAMA) hydrogel for the osteosarcoma therapy and bone regeneration was developed by photocuring and ethanol treatment. The micro or nanofibers networks were observed in the CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel. The FTIR results demonstrated that alcohol vapor treatment caused an increase in β-sheets of SF, resulting in the high compression stress and Young’s modulus of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel. According to the water uptake analysis, SF caused a slight decrease in water uptake of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel while CCNPs could enhance the water uptake of it. The swelling kinetic results showed that both the CCNPs and the SF increased the swelling ratio of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel. The accumulative release profile of CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel showed that the release of Cur from CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel was accelerated when pH value was decreased from 7.4 to 5.5. Besides, compared with CCNPs, the CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel had a more sustainable drug release, which was beneficial for the long-term treatment of osteosarcoma. In vitro assay results indicated that CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel with equivalent Cur concentration of 150 μg/mL possessed both the effect of anti-cancer and promoting the proliferation of osteoblasts. These results suggest that CCNPs-SF/HAMA hydrogel with superior physical properties and the bifunctional osteosarcoma therapy and bone repair may be an excellent candidate for local cancer therapy and bone regeneration.

Abstract
Post-operative adhesions affect patients undergoing all types of surgeries. They are associated with serious complications, including higher risk of morbidity and mortality. Given increased hospitalization, longer operative times, and longer length of hospital stay, post-surgical adhesions also pose a great financial burden. Although our knowledge of some of the underlying mechanisms driving adhesion formation has significantly improved over the past two decades, literature has yet to fully explain the pathogenesis and etiology of post-surgical adhesions. As a result, finding an ideal preventative strategy and leveraging appropriate tissue engineering strategies has proven to be difficult. Different products have been developed and enjoyed various levels of success along the translational tissue engineering research spectrum, but their clinical translation has been limited. Herein, we comprehensively review the agents and products that have been developed to mitigate post-operative adhesion formation. We also assess emerging strategies that aid in facilitating precision and personalized medicine to improve outcomes for patients and our healthcare system.

Abstract
Herein, we fabricated novel self-healing, in situ injectable, biodegradable, and non-toxic hydrogels anti-adhesion barrier materials composed of N, O-carboxymethyl chitosan (N,O-CS) and oxidized dextran (ODA) without requiring any chemical cross-linking agent or external stimuli triggers for the prevention and treatment of post-operative peritoneal adhesions. The N,O-CS/ODA hydrogels have a good suitable gelation time, good cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility, good antibacterial activity, excellent biodegradable and biocompatible, and can effectively inhibit the adhesion of fibroblasts to the wound, thereby suggesting that N,O-CS/ODA hydrogels are suitable for preventing post-operative adhesion. Meanwhile, a rat injury sidewall-cecum abrasion model is developed to investigate the efficacy of these hydrogels in achieving post-operative anti-adhesion. A significant reduction of peritoneal adhesions (10% rat with lower score adhesion) is observed in the N,O-CS/ODA-hydrogel-treated group compared with the commercial hydrogel and control groups. These results demonstrated that N,O-CS/ODA hydrogel could effectively prevent post-operative peritoneal adhesion without side effects. Therefore, the N,O-CS/ODA hydrogels with multi-functional properties exhibit great potential for the prevention and treatment of postoperative adhesion.

Abstract
In this study, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate) hydrogels were synthesized using free radical initiated copolymerization method. Four hydrogels with different cross-linker concentrations were prepared. Semi-crystalline, cross-linked copolymer networks were confirmed by FTIR, SEM and XRD analysis. Variation of swelling behaviour was monitored gravimetrically and thermo-responsiveness has been noticed. An application of synthesized thermo-responsive hydrogels as carriers for the modulated release of anti-inflammatory model drug was investigated. Moreover, naproxen loading into these hydrogels was also determined using FTIR, SEM and XRD techniques and release was analyzed using HPLC method at simulated physiological conditions. Swelling kinetic and mechanism of water transport, as well as diffusion of naproxen through the hydrogels were analyzed. Thus, the aim of this work was to study various compositions of obtained hydrogels and their possibility of application as a thermo-responsive carrier for prolonged naproxen release in order to evaluate as a potential candidate for drug carrier in future pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract
Postoperative peritoneal adhesion (PPA) is a prevalent incidence that generally happens during the healing process of traumatized tissues. It causes multiple severe complications such as intestinal obstruction, chronic abdominal pain, and female infertility. To prevent PPA, several antiadhesion materials and drug delivery systems composed of biomaterials are used clinically, and clinical antiadhesive is one of the important applications nowadays. In addition to several commercially available materials, like film, spray, injectable hydrogel, powder, or solution type have been energetically studied based on natural and synthetic biomaterials such as alginate, hyaluronan, cellulose, starch, chondroitin sulfate, polyethylene glycol, polylactic acid, etc. Moreover, many kinds of animal adhesion models, such as cecum abrasion models and unitary horn models, are developed to evaluate new materials' efficacy. A new animal adhesion model based on hepatectomy and conventional animal adhesion models is recently developed and a new adhesion barrier by this new model is also developed. In summary, many kinds of materials and animal models are studied; thus, it is quite important to overview this field's current progress. Here, PPA is reviewed in terms of the species of biomaterials and animal models and several problems to be solved to develop better antiadhesion materials in the future are discussed.

Abstract
Postoperative adhesions are most common issues for almost any types of abdominal and pelvic surgery, leading to adverse consequences. Pharmacological treatments and physical barrier devices are two main approaches to address postoperative adhesions but can only alleviate or reduce adhesions to some extent. There is an urgent need for a reliable approach to completely prevent postoperative adhesions and to significantly improve the clinical outcomes, which, however, is unmet with current technologies. Here we report that by applying a viscous, cream-like yet injectable zwitterionic polymer solution to the traumatized surface, postoperative adhesion was completely and reliably prevented in three clinically relevant but increasingly challenging models in rats. The success rate of full prevention is over 93% among 42 animals tested, which is a major leap in antiadhesion performance. Clinically used Interceed film can hardly prevent the adhesion in any of these models. Unlike current antiadhesion materials serving solely as physical barriers, the "nonfouling" zwitterionic polymer functioned as a protective layer for antiadhesion applications with the inherent benefit of resisting protein/cell adhesions. The nonfouling nature of the polymer prevented the absorption of fibronectins and fibroblasts, which contribute to the initial and late-stage development of the adhesion, respectively. This is the key working mechanism that differentiated our "complete prevention" approach from current underperforming antiadhesion materials. This work implies a safe, effective, and convenient way to fully prevent postoperative adhesions suffered by current surgical patients.

Abstract
Peritoneal adhesions (PA) are a postoperative syndrome with high incidence rate, which can cause chronic abdominal pain, intestinal obstruction, and female infertility. Previous studies have identified that PA are caused by a disordered feedback of blood coagulation, inflammation, and fibrinolysis. Monocytes, macrophages, fibroblasts, and mesothelial cells are involved in this process, and secreted signaling molecules, such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-10 (IL-10), tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), and type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), play a key role in PA development. There have been many attempts to prevent PA formation by anti-PA drugs, barriers, and other therapeutic methods, but their effectiveness has not been widely accepted. Treatment by biomaterial-based barriers is believed to be the most promising method to prevent PA formation in recent years. In this review, the pathogenesis, treatment approaches, and animal models of PA are summarized and discussed to understand the challenges faced in the biomaterial-based anti-PA treatments.

Abstract
Surgery is performed to treat various diseases. During the process, the surgical site is healed through self-healing after surgery. Post-operative or tissue adhesion caused by unnecessary contact with the surgical site occurs during the normal healing process. In addition, it has been frequently found in patients who have undergone surgery, and severe adhesion can cause chronic pain and various complications. Therefore, anti-adhesion barriers have been developed using multiple biomaterials to prevent post-operative adhesion. Typically, anti-adhesion barriers are manufactured and sold in numerous forms, such as gels, solutions, and films, but there are no products that can completely prevent post-operative adhesion. These products are generally applied over the surgical site to physically block adhesion to other sites (organs). Many studies have recently been conducted to increase the anti-adhesion effects through various strategies. This article reviews recent research trends in anti-adhesion barriers.

Abstract
Dihydroartemisinin (DHA) is a potent anti-cancer drug that has limited clinical applications due to poor water solubility and low bioavailability. We designed a biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether-poly(ε-caprolactone) (MPEG-PCL) micelle carrier for DHA using the self-assembly method. The DHA/MPEG-PCL nanoparticles were spherical with an average particle size of 30.28 ± 0.27 nm, and released the drug in a sustained manner in aqueous solution. The drug-loaded nanoparticles showed dose-dependent toxicity in HeLa cells by inducing cycle arrest and apoptosis. Furthermore, compared to free DHA, the DHA/MPEG-PCL nanoparticles showed higher therapeutic efficacy and lower toxicity in vivo, and significantly inhibited tumor growth and prolonged the survival of tumor-bearing nude mice. In addition, the tumor tissues of the DHA/MPEG-PCL-treated mice showed a marked decline in the in situ expression of proliferation and angiogenesis markers. Taken together, the self-assembled DHA/MPEG-PCL nanoparticles are a highly promising delivery system for targeted cancer treatment.
