[PMID: 36504542 PMCID: PMC9729074 DOI: 10.1016/j.mtbio.2022.100508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Revised: 11/26/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Poor wound healing after diabetes mellitus remains a challenging problem, and its pathophysiological mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. Persistent bleeding, disturbed regulation of inflammation, blocked cell proliferation, susceptible infection and impaired tissue remodeling are the main features of diabetic wound healing. Conventional wound dressings, including gauze, films and bandages, have a limited function. They generally act as physical barriers and absorbers of exudates, which fail to meet the requirements of the whol diabetic wound healing process. Wounds in diabetic patients typically heal slowly and are susceptible to infection due to hyperglycemia within the wound bed. Once bacterial cells develop into biofilms, diabetic wounds will exhibit robust drug resistance. Recently, the application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels, also known as "smart hydrogels", for diabetic wound healing has attracted particular attention. The basic feature of this system is its capacities to change mechanical properties, swelling ability, hydrophilicity, permeability of biologically active molecules, etc., in response to various stimuli, including temperature, potential of hydrogen (pH), protease and other biological factors. Smart hydrogels can improve therapeutic efficacy and limit total toxicity according to the characteristics of diabetic wounds. In this review, we summarized the mechanism and application of stimuli-responsive hydrogels for diabetic wound healing. It is hoped that this work will provide some inspiration and suggestions for research in this field.

Gene Regulations upon Hydrogel-Mediated Drug Delivery Systems in Skin Cancers-An Overview. Gels 2022; 8:gels8090560. [PMID: 36135270 PMCID: PMC9498739 DOI: 10.3390/gels8090560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/31/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The incidence of skin cancer has increased dramatically in recent years, particularly in Caucasian populations. Specifically, the metastatic melanoma is one of the most aggressive cancers and is responsible for more than 80% of skin cancer deaths around the globe. Though there are many treatment techniques, and drugs have been used to cure this belligerent skin cancer, the side effects and reduced bioavailability of drug in the targeted area makes it difficult to eradicate. In addition, cellular metabolic pathways are controlled by the skin cancer driver genes, and mutations in these genes promote tumor progression. Consequently, the MAPK (RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway), WNT and PI3K signaling pathways are found to be important molecular regulators in melanoma development. Even though hydrogels have turned out to be a promising drug delivery system in skin cancer treatment, the regulations at the molecular level have not been reported. Thus, we aimed to decipher the molecular pathways of hydrogel drug delivery systems for skin cancer in this review. Special attention has been paid to the hydrogel systems that deliver drugs to regulate MAPK, PI3K-AKT-mTOR, JAK-STAT and cGAS-STING pathways. These signaling pathways can be molecular drivers of skin cancers and possible potential targets for the further research on treatment of skin cancers.

Abstract
Hydrogel, a special system of polymer solutions, can be obtained through the physical/chemical/enzymic crosslinking of polymer chains in a water-based dispersion medium. Different compositions and crosslinking methods endow hydrogel with diverse physicochemical properties. Those hydrogels with suitable physicochemical properties hold manifold functions in biomedical fields, such as cell transplantation, tissue engineering, organ manufacturing, drug releasing and pathological model analysis. In this study, several alginate-based composite hydrogels, including gelatin/alginate (G-A), gelatin/alginate/agarose (G-A-A), fibrinogen/alginate (F-A), fibrinogen/alginate/agarose (F-A-A) and control alginate (A) and alginate/agarose (A-A), were constructed. We researched the advantages and disadvantages of these hydrogels in terms of their microscopic structure (cell living space), water holding capacity, swelling rate, swelling–erosion ratio, mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Briefly, alginate-based hydrogels can be used for three-dimensional (3D) cell culture alone. However, when mixed with other natural polymers in different proportions, a relatively stable network with a good cytocompatibility, mechanical strength and water holding capacity can be formed. The physical and chemical properties of the hydrogels can be adjusted by changing the composition, proportion and cross-linking methods of the polymers. Conclusively, the G-A-A and F-A-A hydrogels are the best hydrogels for the in vitro 3D cell cultures and pathological model construction.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most common malignancy with a high incidence rate and is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Herein, we developed a thermo-responsive hydrogel comprising poly(ε-caprolactone-co-lactide)-b-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(ε-caprolactone-co-lactide (PCLA) that exhibits acidity-accelerated delivery of the tumor-targeting glucuronic acid-bearing doxorubicin (DOX-pH-GA) conjugate into tumor tissues. The PCLA copolymer was post-modified with boronic acid (BA-PCLA) to covalently cross-link with the pH-responsive DOX-pH-GA conjugate. The BA-PCLA copolymer effectively coordinated with the DOX-pH-GA conjugate through the boronate ester formation and showed a lower critical gelation temperature. The DOX conjugated via boronate ester exhibited a sustained release in vitro. Subcutaneous administration of PCLA copolymers formed in situ gels in the subcutaneous layers of Sprague-Dawley rats and degraded after 6 weeks. Similarly, BA-PCLA copolymers coordinated with DOX-pH-GA formed a stable in situ gel in vivo. In vivo imaging studies demonstrated that DOX-pH-GA was released in a sustained manner. The anti-tumor activity of the DOX releasing injectable hydrogel was examined using a HepG2 liver cancer xenograft model. The in vivo antitumor effect demonstrated that the DOX releasing hydrogel depot remarkably suppresses the tumor growth. These results demonstrate that the pH-responsive DOX releasing thermo-responsive hydrogel depot has great potential for application in localized anticancer therapy.

Abstract
Owing to their tunable properties, hydrogels comprised of stimuli-sensitive polymers are one of the most appealing scaffolds with applications in tissue engineering, drug delivery and other biomedical fields. We previously reported a thermoresponsive hydrogel formed using a coiled-coil protein, Q. Here, we expand our studies to identify the gelation of Q protein at distinct pH conditions, creating a protein hydrogel system that is sensitive to temperature and pH. Through secondary structure analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and rheology, we observed that Q self-assembles and forms fiber-based hydrogels exhibiting upper critical solution temperature behavior with increased elastic properties at pH 7.4 and pH 10. At pH 6, however, Q forms polydisperse nanoparticles, which do not further self-assemble and undergo gelation. The high net positive charge of Q at pH 6 creates significant electrostatic repulsion, preventing its gelation. This study will potentially guide the development of novel scaffolds and functional biomaterials that are sensitive towards biologically relevant stimuli.

Abstract
Injectable hydrogels have received considerable interest in the biomedical field due to their potential applications in minimally invasive local drug delivery, more precise implantation, and site-specific drug delivery into poorly reachable tissue sites and into interface tissues, where wound healing takes a long time. Injectable hydrogels, such as in situ forming and/or shear-thinning hydrogels, can be generated using chemically and/or physically crosslinked hydrogels. Yet, for controlled and local drug delivery applications, the ideal injectable hydrogel should be able to provide controlled and sustained release of drug molecules to the target site when needed and should limit nonspecific drug molecule distribution in healthy tissues. Thus, such hydrogels should sense the environmental changes that arise in disease states and be able to release the optimal amount of drug over the necessary time period to the target region. To address this, researchers have designed stimuli-responsive injectable hydrogels. Stimuli-responsive hydrogels change their shape or volume when they sense environmental stimuli, e.g., pH, temperature, light, electrical signals, or enzymatic changes, and deliver an optimal concentration of drugs to the target site without affecting healthy tissues.

Abstract
Amyloids are fibrillar structures formed due to protein aggregation or misfolding when the molecules undergo a conformational change from α-helix to β-sheet. Although this self-assembly is associated with many neurodegenerative diseases in vivo, the highly ordered amyloidic structures formed in vitro are ideal scaffolds for many bionanotechnological applications. Amyloid fibrillar networks under specific stimuli can also form stable hydrogels. We have used bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model amyloidogenic protein to obtain thermally-induced hydrogels that display tunable sol-gel-sol transitions spanning over minutes to days. High concentrations of BSA (14-22% w/v) were heated at 65 °C for less than 3 min without any cross-linking agent to yield soft, injectable gels that were non-toxic to mammalian cells. A detailed investigation of temperature, concentration, incubation time and ionic strength on the formation and reversal of these gels was carried out using visual inspection, rheology, electron microscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The optimum gelation temperature (Tg) for phase reversal of BSA gels was found to lie between 60 and 70 °C. An increase in protein concentration led to a reduction in the gelation time and increase in the gel-to-rev sol transition time. Gels heated for longer duration than their minimum gelation time yielded irreversible gels suggesting that low incubation periods were favourable for partial protein denaturation and hydrogel formation. This was supported by time-resolved secondary and tertiary structural ensemble studies. Further, the hydrogel networks demonstrated a zero-order drug release kinetics and the rev sol was found to be cytocompatible with HaCaT skin cell lines. Overall, our approach demonstrates rapid, crosslinker-free thermoresponsive BSA gelation with wide tunability and control on the time and material property, ideal for topical drug delivery applications.
