Abstract
Thrombosis and infection are two major complications associated with central venous catheters (CVCs), which significantly contribute to morbidity and mortality. Antifouling coating strategies currently represent an efficient approach for addressing such complications. However, existing antifouling coatings have limitations in terms of both duration and effectiveness. Herein, we propose a durable zwitterionic polymer armor for catheters. This armor is realized by pre-coating with a robust phenol-polyamine film inspired by insect sclerotization, followed by grafting of poly-2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (pMPC) via in-situ radical polymerization. The resulting pMPC coating armor exhibits super-hydrophilicity, thereby forming a highly hydrated shell that effectively prevents bacterial adhesion and inhibits the adsorption and activation of fibrinogen and platelets in vitro. In practical applications, the armored catheters significantly reduced inflammation and prevented biofilm formation in a rat subcutaneous infection model, as well as inhibited thrombus formation in a rabbit jugular vein model. Overall, our robust zwitterionic polymer coating presents a promising solution for reducing infections and thrombosis associated with vascular catheters.

Abstract
Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) have become the dominant drug delivery technology in industry, holding the promise to deliver RNA to up or down-regulate any protein of interest. LNPs have mostly been targeted to specific cell types or organs by physicochemical targeting in which LNP's lipid compositions are adjusted to find mixtures with the desired tropism. Here lung-tropic LNPs are examined, whose organ tropism derives from containing either a cationic or ionizable lipid conferring a positive zeta potential. Surprisingly, these LNPs are found to induce massive thrombosis. Such thrombosis is shown in the lungs and other organs, and it is shown that it is greatly exacerbated by pre-existing inflammation. This clotting is induced by a variety of formulations with cationic lipids, including LNPs and non-LNP nanoparticles, and even by lung-tropic ionizable lipids that do not have a permanent cationic charge. The mechanism depends on the LNPs binding to and then changing the conformation of fibrinogen, which then activates platelets and thrombin. Based on these mechanisms, multiple solutions are engineered that enable positively charged LNPs to target the lungs while ameliorating thrombosis. The findings illustrate how physicochemical targeting approaches must be investigated early for risks and re-engineered with a careful understanding of biological mechanisms.

Abstract
Due to its unique properties and high biomedical relevance fibrinogen is a promising protein for the development of various matrixes and scaffolds for biotechnological applications. Fibrinogen molecules may form extensive clots either upon specific cleavage by thrombin or in thrombin-free environment, for example, in the presence of different salts. Here, we report the novel type of non-conventional fibrinogen clot formation, which is mediated by myeloperoxidase and takes place even at low fibrinogen concentrations (<0.1 mg/ml). We have revealed fibrillar nature of myeloperoxidase-mediated fibrinogen clots, which differ morphologically from fibrin clots. We have shown that fibrinogen clotting is mediated by direct interaction of myeloperoxidase molecules with the outer globular regions of fibrinogen molecules followed by fibrinogen unfolding from its natural trinodular to a fibrillar structure. We have demonstrated a major role of the Debye screening effect in regulating of myeloperoxidase-induced fibrinogen clotting, which is facilitated by small ionic strength. While fibrinogen in an aqueous solution with myeloperoxidase undergoes changes, the enzymatic activity of myeloperoxidase is not inhibited in excess of fibrinogen. The obtained results open new insights into fibrinogen clotting, give new possibilities for the development of fibrinogen-based functional biomaterials, and provide the novel concepts of protein unfolding.

Abstract
We describe the antithrombotic properties of nanopatterned coatings created by self-assembly of poly(styrene-block-2-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P2VP) with different molecular weights. By changing the assembly conditions, we obtained nanopatterns that differ by their morphology (size and shape of the nanopattern) and chemistry. The surface exposition of P2VP block allowed quaternization, i.e. introduction of positive surface charge and following electrostatic deposition of heparin. Proteins (albumin and fibrinogen) adsorption, platelet adhesion and activation, cytocompatibility, and reendothelization capacity of the coatings were assessed and discussed in a function of the nanopattern morphology and chemistry. We found that quaternization results in excellent antithrombotic and hemocompatible properties comparable to heparinization by hampering the fibrinogen adhesion and platelet activation. In the case of quaternization, this effect depends on the size of the polymer blocks, while all heparinized patterns had similar performance showing that heparin surface coverage of 40 % is enough to improve substantially the hemocompatibility.

Abstract
The structure, size, and main physicochemical characteristics of the SARS-CoV-2 virion with the spike transmembrane protein corona were discussed. Using these data, diffusion coefficients of the virion in aqueous media and in air were calculated. The structure and dimensions of the spike protein derived from molecular dynamic modeling and thorough cryo-electron microscopy measurements were also analyzed. The charge distribution over the molecule was calculated and shown to be largely heterogeneous. Although the stalk part is negatively charged, the top part of the spike molecule, especially the receptor binding domain, remains positively charged for a broad range of pH. It is underlined that such a charge distribution promotes the spike corona stability and enhances the virion attachment to receptors and surfaces, mostly negatively charged. The review is completed by the analysis of experimental data pertinent to the spike protein adsorption at abiotic surfaces comprising nanoparticle carrier particles. It is argued that these theoretical and experimental data can be used for developing quantitative models of virus attachment to surfaces, facilitating adequate analysis of future experimental results.

Abstract
Materials exhibiting "bio-inert properties" are essential for developing medical devices because they are less recognized as foreign substances by proteins and cells in the living body. We have reported that the presence of intermediate water (IW) with the water molecules loosely bound to a polymer is a useful index of the bio-inertness of materials. Here, we analyzed the hydration state and the responses to biomolecules of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) copolymers including small amounts of 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) (N-series) or/and 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate (TFEMA) (F-series). The hydration structure was analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), the molecular mobility of the produced copolymers by temperature derivative of DSC (DDSC), and the water mobility by solid 1H pulse nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Although the homopolymers did not show bio-inert properties, the binary and ternary PHEMA copolymers with low comonomer contents showed higher bio-inert properties than those of PHEMA homopolymers. The hydration state of PHEMA was changed by introducing a small amount of comonomers. The mobility of both water molecules and hydrated polymers was changed in the N-series nonfreezing water (NFW) with the water molecules tightly bound to a polymer and was shifted to high-mobility IW and free water (FW) with the water molecules scarcely bound to a polymer. On the other hand, in the F-series, FW turned to IW and NFW. Additionally, a synergetic effect was postulated when both comonomers coexist in the copolymers of HEMA, which was expressed by widening the temperature range of cold crystallization, contributing to further improvement of the bio-inert properties.

Abstract
Skin tissue engineering aims to develop the effective healing strategy to repair the wound by optimizing skin scaffold materials. During the skin wound healing process, fibrin plays an important role due to the specific blood coagulation effect. In this study, the outstanding fibrin capability of konjac glucomannan (KGM) is demonstrated by the molecular dynamics simulation and confirmed by the protein adsorption experiments. A series of konjac glucomannan/polyvinyl alcohol (KGM/PVA) composites with different ratio are fabricated and their role in enhancing the skin repair is tested by in vitro cell culture and in vivo study. The Eads (adsorption energy) between fibrin and KGM is about 30% larger than that between fibrin and PVA. The fibrinogen adsorption rates of PVA and KGM/PVA (5:5) composites can reach about 20% and 60%, respectively. The results show the blood adsorption capacity of KGM/PVA (5:5) composite can reach about 13 g/g. After 7 days of cell culture, the optical density values of 3T3 fibroblasts on KGM/PVA (5:5) composite could reach 0.8. The mechanical properties of the composites are also verified to meet the practical needs. Thus, we propose a potential wound dressing material strategy based on the materials design and the intrinsic properties of KGM.

Abstract
Hemostatic materials are of great importance in medicine. However, their successful implementation is still challenging as it depends on two, often counteracting, attributes; achieving blood coagulation rapidly, before significant blood loss, and enabling subsequent facile wound-dressing removal, without clot tears and secondary bleeding. Here we illustrate an approach for achieving hemostasis, rationally targeting both attributes, via a superhydrophobic surface with immobilized carbon nanofibers (CNFs). We find that CNFs promote quick fibrin growth and cause rapid clotting, and due to their superhydrophobic nature they severely limit blood wetting to prevent blood loss and drastically reduce bacteria attachment. Furthermore, minimal contact between the clot and the superhydrophobic CNF surface yields an unforced clot detachment after clot shrinkage. All these important attributes are verified in vitro and in vivo with rat experiments. Our work thereby demonstrates that this strategy for designing hemostatic patch materials has great potential.

Abstract
Deposition kinetics of fibrinogen/polystyrene particle complexes on mica and the silicon/silica substrates was studied using the direct optical and atomic force microscopy. Initially, basic physicochemical characteristics of fibrinogen and the microparticles were acquired using the dynamic light scattering and the electrophoretic mobility methods, whereas the zeta potential of the substrates was determined using the streaming potential measurements. Subsequently an efficient method for the preparation of fibrinogen/polymer microparticle complexes characterized by controlled coverage and molecule orientation was developed. It was demonstrated that for a lower suspension concentration the complexes are stable for pH range 3-9 and for a large concentration for pH below 4.5 and above 5.5. This enabled to carry out thorough pH cycling experiments where their isoelectric point was determined to appear at pH 5. Kinetic measurements showed that the deposition rate of the complexes vanished at pH above 5, whereas the kinetics of the positively charged amidine particles, used as control, remained at maximum for pH up to 9. These results were theoretically interpreted using the hybrid random sequential adsorption model. It was confirmed that the deposition kinetics of the complexes can be adequately analyzed in terms of the mean-field approach, analogously to the ordinary colloid particle behavior. This is in contrast to the fibrinogen molecule behavior, which efficiently adsorb on negatively charged substrates for the entire range pHs up to 9.7. These results have practical significance for conducting efficient immunoassays governed by the specific antigen/antibody interactions.

Abstract
Self-cleaning surfaces allow the reversible attachment and detachment of microorganisms which show great promise in regards to their reusability as smart biomaterials. However, a widely used biomaterial such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) suffers from high biofouling activity and hydrophobic recovery that results in decreased efficiency and stability. A current challenge is to modify and fabricate self-cleaning PDMS surfaces by incorporating antifouling and pH-sensitive properties. To address this, we synthesized a zwitterionic and pH-sensitive random poly(glycidyl methacrylate- co-sulfobetaine methacrylate- co-2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) polymer, poly(GMA- co-SBMA- co-DMAEMA). In this work, chemical modification of PDMS was done by grafting onto poly(GMA- co-SBMA- co-DMAEMA) after surface activation via UV and ozone for 90 min to ensure the formation of covalent bonds necessary for stable grafting. The PDMS grafted with G20-S40-D40 exhibit antifouling and pH-sensitive properties by mitigating fibrinogen adsorption, blood cell adhesion, and releasing 98% adhered E. coli bacteria after immersion at basic pH. The grafting of poly(GMA- co-SBMA- co-DMAEMA) presented in this work shows attractive potential for biomedical and industrial applications as a simple, smart, and effective method for the modification of PDMS interfaces.

Abstract
Fibrous networks are ideal functional materials since they provide mechanical rigidity at low weight. Here, we demonstrate that fibrous networks of the blood clotting protein fibrin undergo a strong and irreversible increase in their mechanical rigidity in response to uniaxial compression. This rigidification can be precisely controlled by the level of applied compressive strain, providing a means to program the network rigidity without having to change its composition. To identify the underlying mechanism we measure single fiber-fiber interactions using optical tweezers. We further develop a minimal computational model of cohesive fiber networks that shows that stiffening arises due to the formation of new bonds in the compressed state, which develop tensile stress when the network is re-expanded. The model predicts that the network stiffness after a compression cycle obeys a power-law dependence on tensile stress, which we confirm experimentally. This finding provides new insights into how biological tissues can adapt themselves independently of any cellular processes, offering new perspectives to inspire the design of reprogrammable materials.

Abstract
Bulk physicochemical properties of neurotrophin 4 (NT-4) in electrolyte solutions and its adsorption/desorption on/from mica surfaces have been studied using dynamic light scattering (DLS), microelectrophoresis, a solution depletion technique (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, ELISA), and AFM imaging. Our study presents a determination of the diffusion coefficient, hydrodynamic diameters, electrophoretic mobility, and isoelectric point of the NT-4 under various ionic strength and pH conditions. The size of the NT-4 homodimer for an ionic strength of 0.015 M was substantially independent of pH and equal to 5.1 nm. It has been found that the number of electrokinetic charges per NT-4 molecule was equal to zero for all studied ionic strengths at pH 8.1, which was identified as the isoelectric point (iep). The protein adsorption/desorption on/from mica surfaces was examined as a function of ionic strength and pH. The kinetics of neurotrophin adsorption/desorption were evaluated at pH 3.5, 7.4, and 11 by direct AFM imaging and the ELISA technique. A monotonic increase in the maximum coverage of adsorbed NT-4 molecules with ionic strength (up to 5.5 mg/m2) was observed at pH 3.5. These results were interpreted in terms of the theoretical model postulating an irreversible adsorption of the protein governed by the random sequential adsorption (RSA). Our measurements revealed a significant role of ionic strength, pH, and electrolyte composition in the lateral electrostatic interactions among differently charged NT-4 molecules. The transition between adsorption/desorption processes is found for the region of high pH and low surface concentration of adsorbed neurotrophin molecules at constant ionic strength. Additionally, results presented in this work show that the adsorption behavior of neurotrophin molecules may be governed by intrasolvent electrostatic interactions yielding an aggregation process. Understanding polyvalent neurotrophin interactions may have an impact on the reversibility/irreversibility of adsorption, and hence they might be useful for obtaining well-ordered protein layers, targeting the future development of drug delivery systems for treating neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
We analyze the effect of nanoparticle concentration on the physical properties of magnetic hydrogels consisting of polymer networks of the human fibrin biopolymer with embedded magnetic particles, swollen by a water-based solution. We prepared these magnetic hydrogels by polymerization of mixtures consisting mainly of human plasma and magnetic nanoparticles with OH- functionalization. Microscopic observations revealed that magnetic hydrogels presented some cluster-like knots that were connected by several fibrin threads. By contrast, nonmagnetic hydrogels presented a homogeneous net-like structure with only individual connections between pairs of fibers. The rheological analysis demonstrated that the rigidity modulus, as well as the viscoelastic moduli, increased quadratically with nanoparticle content following a square-like function. Furthermore, we found that time for gel point was shorter in the presence of magnetic nanoparticles. Thus, we can conclude that nanoparticles favor the cross-linking process, serving as nucleation sites for the attachment of the fibrin polymer. Attraction between the positive groups of the fibrinogen, from which the fibrin is polymerized, and the negative OH- groups of the magnetic particle surface qualitatively justifies the positive role of the nanoparticles in the enhancement of the mechanical properties of the magnetic hydrogels. Indeed, we developed a theoretical model that semiquantitatively explains the experimental results by assuming the indirect attraction of the fibrinogen through the attached nanoparticles. Due to this attraction the monomers condense into nuclei of the dense phase and by the end of the polymerization process the nuclei (knots) of the dense phase cross-link the fibrin threads, which enhances their mechanical properties.

Abstract
Random packings of disks on a mesh are studied numerically using random sequential adsorption algorithm. The mesh is built of straight horizontal and vertical one-dimensional lines of a given distance between them. The packing fraction and structure as well as the kinetics of packing growth dependence on mesh size are analyzed to provide information, whether surface inhomogeneity will affect the properties of random packings. It has been shown that the number of disks in a packing slightly decreases with growing distance between mesh lines while the kinetics may change significantly even for very dense meshes. As packings obtained in random sequential adsorption resemble monolayers produced by irreversible adsorption processes, results of this study show that by measuring properties of a random packing it may be possible to determine fine structure of an underlying surface.

Abstract
This work discusses the impact of the charge bias and the hydrophilicity on the human blood compatibility of pseudozwitterionic biomaterial gels. Four series of hydrogels were prepared, all containing negatively-charged 3-sulfopropyl methacrylate (SA), and either acrylamide, N-isopropylacrylamide, 2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) or [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium (TMA), to form SnAm, SnNm, SnDm or SnTm hydrogels, respectively. An XPS analysis proved that the polymerization was well controlled from the initial monomer ratios. All gels present high surface hydrophilicity, but varying bulk hydration, depending on the nature/content of the comonomer, and on the immersion medium. The most negative interfaces (pure SA, S7A3, S5A5) showed significant fibrinogen adsorption, ascribed to the interactions of the αC domains of the protein with the gels, then correlated to considerable platelet adhesion; but low leukocyte/erythrocyte attachments were measured. Positive gels (excess of DMAEMA or TMA) are not hemocompatible. They mediate protein adsorption and the adhesion of human blood cells, through electrostatic attractive interactions. The neutral interfaces (zeta potential between -10mV and +10mV) are blood-inert only if they present a high surface and bulk hydrophilicity. Overall, this study presents a map of the hemocompatible behavior of hydrogels as a function of their surface charge-bias, essential to the design of blood-contacting devices.

Abstract
Fibrinogen has been known since the mid-nineteenth century. Although initially its interest had been within the field of physiology over time its study has spread to new disciplines such as biochemistry, colloids and interfaces or biotechnology. First, we will describe the bulk properties of the molecule as well as its supramolecular assembly with different ligands by using different techniques and theoretical models. In the next step we will analyze the interfacial properties, an important topic because fibrinogen is considered to be a major inhibitor of lung surfactants' function at the lining layer of alveoli. The final step will be devoted to its main application in biotechnology. Thus, the adsorption of fibrinogen at solid/electrolyte interfaces and at carrier particles will be discussed. The reversibility of adsorption, fibrinogen molecule orientation, and maximum coverage will be thoroughly discussed. The stability of fibrinogen monolayers formed at these surfaces with respect to pH and ionic strength cyclic changes will also be presented. Based on the physicochemical data, adsorption kinetics and colloid particle deposition measurements, probable adsorption mechanisms of fibrinogen on solid/electrolyte interfaces will be defined.

Abstract
The adsorption of lysozyme and ß-lactoglobulin onto silica nanoparticles (diameter 21 nm) was studied in the pH range 2–11 at three different ionic strengths. Since the two proteins have a widely different isoelectric point (pI), electrostatic interactions with the negative silica surface lead to a different dependence of adsorption on pH. For lysozyme (pI ≈ 11), the adsorption level increases with pH and reaches a value corresponding to about two close-packed monolayers at pH = pI. In the multilayer adsorption region near pI, added electrolyte causes a decrease in adsorption, which is attributed to the screening of attractive interactions between protein molecules in the first and second adsorbed layer. For ß-lactoglobulin (pI ≈ 5), a pronounced maximum of the adsorbed amount is found at pH 4 in the absence of salt. It is attributed to the adsorption of oligomers of the protein that exist in the solution at this pH. An inversion in the influence of salt on the adsorbed amount occurs at pH > pI, where the protein and the surface are both negatively charged. This inversion is attributed to the screening of the repulsive protein-surface and protein–protein interactions. The adsorption isotherms were analyzed with the Guggenheim–Anderson–De Boer (GAB) model, which allows for two adsorption states (strongly and weakly bound protein).
