[PMID: 38651648 PMCID: PMC11142879 DOI: 10.1002/mrm.30058] [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: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Gene therapy using adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector-mediated gene delivery has undergone substantial growth in recent years with promising results in both preclinical and clinical studies, as well as emerging regulatory approval. However, the inability to quantify the efficacy of gene therapy from cellular delivery of gene-editing technology to specific functional outcomes is an obstacle for efficient development of gene therapy treatments. Building on prior works that used the CEST reporter gene lysine rich protein, we hypothesized that AAV viral capsids may generate endogenous CEST contrast from an abundance of surface lysine residues. METHODS NMR experiments were performed on isolated solutions of AAV serotypes 1-9 on a Bruker 800-MHz vertical scanner. In vitro experiments were performed for testing of CEST-NMR contrast of AAV2 capsids under varying pH, density, biological transduction stage, and across multiple serotypes and mixed biological media. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction was used to quantify virus concentration. Subsequent experiments at 7 T optimized CEST saturation schemes for AAV contrast detection and detected AAV2 particles encapsulated in a biocompatible hydrogel administered in the hind limb of mice. RESULTS CEST-NMR experiments revealed CEST contrast up to 52% for AAV2 viral capsids between 0.6 and 0.8 ppm. CEST contrast generated by AAV2 demonstrated high levels of CEST contrast across a variety of chemical environments, concentrations, and saturation schemes. AAV2 CEST contrast displayed significant positive correlations with capsid density (R2 > 0.99, p < 0.001), pH (R2 = 0.97, p = 0.01), and viral titer per cell count (R2 = 0.92, p < 0.001). Transition to a preclinical field strength yielded up to 11.8% CEST contrast following optimization of saturation parameters. In vivo detection revealed statistically significant molecular contrast between viral and empty hydrogels using both mean values (4.67 ± 0.75% AAV2 vs. 3.47 ± 0.87% empty hydrogel, p = 0.02) and quantile analysis. CONCLUSION AAV2 viral capsids exhibit strong capacity as an endogenous CEST contrast agent and can potentially be used for monitoring and evaluation of AAV vector-mediated gene therapy protocols.

Abstract
Frequent blood glucose monitoring is a crucial routine for diabetic patients. Traditional invasive methods can cause discomfort and pain and even pose a risk of infection. As a result, researchers have been exploring noninvasive techniques. However, a limited number of products have been developed for the market due to their high cost. In this study, we developed a low-cost, highly accessible, and noninvasive contact lens-based glucose monitoring system. We functionalized the surface of the contact lens with boronic acid, which has a strong but reversible binding affinity to glucose. To achieve facile conjugation of boronic acid, we utilized a functional coating layer called poly(tannic acid). The functionalized contact lens binds to glucose in body fluids (e.g., tear) and releases it when soaked in an enzymatic cocktail, allowing for the glucose level to be quantified through a colorimetric assay. Importantly, the transparency and oxygen permeability of the contact lens, which are crucial for practical use, were maintained after functionalization, and the lenses showed high biocompatibility. Based on the analysis of colorimetric data generated by the smartphone application and ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectra, we believe that this contact lens has a high potential to be used as a smart diagnostic tool for monitoring and managing blood glucose levels.

Abstract
Elevated glucose levels, multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines and the generation of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) are pivotal characteristics within the microenvironments of chronic periodontitis with diabetes mellitus (CPDM). Control of inflammation and modulation of immune system are required in the initial phase of CPDM treatment, while late severe periodontitis requires a suitable scaffold to promote osteogenesis, rebuild periodontal tissue and reduce alveolar bone resorption. Herein, a whole-course-repair system is introduced by an injectable hydrogel using phenylboronic acid functionalized oxidized sodium alginate (OSA-PBA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC). Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) was loaded to simultaneously adjust the mechanical property of the OSA-PBA/CMC + EGCG hydrogel (OPCE). This hydrogel has distinctive adaptability, injectability, and ROS/glucose-triggered release of EGCG, making it an ideal drug delivery carrier. As expected, OPCE hydrogel shows favourable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, along with a regulatory influence on the phenotypic transition of macrophages, providing a favourable immune microenvironment. Apart from that, it provides a favourable mechanical support for osteoblast/osteoclast differentiation regulation at the late proliferation stage of periodontal regeneration. The practical therapeutic effects of OPCE hydrogels were also confirmed when applied for treating periodontitis in diabetic rats. In summary, OPCE hydrogel may be a promising whole-course-repair system for the treatment of CPDM.

Abstract
Several hydrogels with boronate/diol ester cross-linking have been reported. However, multiple synthetic steps or expensive reagents are required to modify some diol moieties into polymers. Therefore, diol-modified polymers, which are easily and inexpensively prepared via a single-step process, are required for the formation of boronate esters. This study reports a novel hydrogel composed of phenylboronic acid-modified hyaluronic acid and salicylic acid-modified hyaluronic acid. This hydrogel is injectable, can self-heal at physiological pH, and can be easily and inexpensively prepared. The polymer system behaved as a sol at pH 12.0 and a weak gel at pH 9.4 and 11.2, whereas it behaved as a gel over a wide pH range of 4.0-8.2. The viscoelasticity of the system decreased in response to sugar at pH 7.3. Thus, salicylic acid can be considered a promising diol moiety for hydrogel formation via boronate ester cross-linking.

Abstract
Porous titanium implants are commonly utilized for orthopedic surgery because they can mimic the mechanical properties and porous structure of human bone. However, the bioinertness of titanium (Ti) has been reported to obstruct biointegration processes, resulting in slower bone repair. Here, we propose a localized drug delivery system on Ti surfaces using adhesive hydrogel to enhance biological-Ti interactions. The hydrogel was fabricated from polyethylene glycol (PEG), which was cross-linked by the complex of tannic acid (TA) and 1,4-phenylenediboronic acid (PDBA) and stabilized by bovine serum albumin (BSA). The hydrogel was formed and attached to a Ti plate to investigate stability, biodegradability, controlled drug release, and biocompatibility. The stability and biodegradability of the hydrogel could be tuned by adjusting the concentrations of BSA and TA. The hydrogel lasted and remained adhered to the Ti surface after being submerged in PBS for at least 15 days. The controlled release of strontium ranelate (SrRan) and the release mechanism depended on the amount of TA since it was found to govern the hydrogel integrity and pore size. Additionally, in vitro biocompatibility was validated using L929 fibroblast and MC3T3-E1 osteoblast cells that showed greater than 70% viability. The adhesive hydrogel was further studied by injecting it into a 3D-printed Ti-scaffold that contained a porous structure mimicking natural human bone. The hydrogel completely filled and adhered to the inner porous structure of the scaffold. The biodegradation and drug release of the hydrogel in the scaffold occurred at a slower rate, suggesting sustainable drug release that is suitable for bone cell regeneration. The overall results in biodegradability, controlled drug release, and biocompatibility demonstrate the great potential of the drug-releasing TA-mediated adhesive PEG hydrogel as a Ti-enhancing biomaterial that supports osseointegration.

Abstract
In the current era, the treatment of collagen hydrogels with natural phenolics for the improvement in physicochemical properties has been the subject of considerable attention. The present research aimed to fabricate collagen hydrogels cross-linked with gallic acid (GA) and ellagic acid (EA) at different concentrations depending on the collagen dry weight. The structural, enzymatic, thermal, morphological, and physical properties of the native collagen hydrogels were compared with those of the GA/EA cross-linked hydrogels. XRD and FTIR spectroscopic analyses confirmed the structural stability and reliability of the collagen after treatment with either GA or EA. The cross-linking also significantly contributed to the improvement in the storage modulus, of 435 Pa for 100% GA cross-linked hydrogels. The thermal stability was improved, as the highest residual weight of 43.8% was obtained for the hydrogels cross-linked with 50% GA in comparison with all the other hydrogels. The hydrogels immersed in 30%, 50%, and 100% concentrations of GA also showed improved swelling behavior and porosity, and the highest resistance to type 1 collagenase (76.56%), was obtained for 50% GA cross-linked collagen hydrogels. Moreover, GA 100% and EA 100% obtained the highest denaturation temperatures (Td) of 74.96 °C and 75.78 °C, respectively. In addition, SEM analysis was also carried out to check the surface morphology of the pristine collagen hydrogels and the cross-linked collagen hydrogels. The result showed that the hydrogels cross-linked with GA/EA were denser and more compact. However, the improved physicochemical properties were probably due to the formation of hydrogen bonds between the phenolic hydroxyl groups of GA and EA and the nitrogen atoms of the collagen backbone. The presence of inter- and intramolecular cross-links between collagen and GA or EA components and an increased density of intermolecular bonds suggest potential hydrogen bonding or hydrophobic interactions. Overall, the present study paves the way for further investigations in the field by providing valuable insights into the GA/EA interaction with collagen molecules.

Abstract
Polyphenols, a class of bioactive compounds with phenolic structures, are abundant in human diets. They have gained attention in biomedical fields due to their beneficial properties, including antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory activities. Therefore, polyphenols can prevent multiple chronic or infectious diseases and may help in the prevention of oral diseases. Oral health is crucial to our well-being, and maintaining a healthy oral microbiome is essential for preventing various dental and systemic diseases. However, the mechanisms by which polyphenols modulate the oral microbiota and contribute to oral health are still not fully understood, and the application of polyphenol products lies in different stages. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the advancements in understanding polyphenols' effects on oral health: dental caries, periodontal diseases, halitosis, and oral cancer. The mechanisms underlying the preventive and therapeutic effects of polyphenols derived from dietary sources are discussed, and new findings from animal models and clinical trials are included, highlighting the latest achievements. Given the great application potential of these natural compounds, novel approaches to dietary interventions and oral disease treatments may emerge. Moreover, investigating polyphenols combined with different materials presents promising opportunities for developing innovative therapeutic strategies in the treatment of oral diseases.

Abstract
Hydrogel-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) can leverage therapeutically beneficial outcomes in cancer therapy. In this domain, polyethylene glycol (PEG) has become increasingly popular as a biomedical polymer and has found clinical use. Owing to their excellent biocompatibility, facile modifiability, and high drug encapsulation rate, PEG hydrogels have shown great promise as drug delivery platforms. Here, the progress in emerging novel designs of PEG-hydrogels as DDSs for anti-cancer therapy is reviewed and discussed, focusing on underpinning multiscale release mechanisms categorized under stimuli-responsive and non-responsive drug release. The responsive drug delivery approaches are discussed, and the underpinning release mechanisms are elucidated, covering the systems functioning based on either exogenous stimuli-response, such as photo- and magnetic-sensitive PEG hydrogels, or endogenous stimuli-response, such as enzyme-, pH-, reduction-, and temperature-sensitive PEG hydrogels. Special attention is paid to the commercial potential of PEG-based hydrogels in cancer therapy, highlighting the limitations that need to be addressed in future research for their clinical translation.

Abstract
This report describes the synthesis and characterization of organogels by reaction of a diol-containing polyether, derived from the sugar d-xylose, with 1,4-phenylenediboronic acid (PDBA). The cross-linked materials were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and rheology. The rheological material properties could be tuned: gel or viscoelastic behavior depended on the concentration of polymer, and mechanical stiffness increased with the amount of PDBA cross-linker. Organogels demonstrated self-healing capabilities and recovered their storage and loss moduli instantaneously after application and subsequent strain release. Lithiated organogels were synthesized through incorporation of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) into the cross-linked matrix. These lithium-borate polymer gels showed a high ionic conductivity value of up to 3.71 × 10-3 S cm-1 at 25 °C, high lithium transference numbers (t + = 0.88-0.92), and electrochemical stability (4.51 V). The gels were compatible with lithium-metal electrodes, showing stable polarization profiles in plating/stripping tests. This system provides a promising platform for the production of self-healing gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) derived from renewable feedstocks for battery applications.

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

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

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

Abstract
Polyphenolic materials are a class of fascinating and versatile bioinspired materials for biointerfacial engineering. In particular, due to the presence of active chemical groups, a series of unique physicochemical properties become accessible and tunable of the as-prepared polyphenolic platforms, which could delicately regulate the cell activities via cell-material contact-dependent interactions. More interestingly, polyphenols could also affect the cell behaviors via cell-material contact-independent manner, which arise due to their intrinsically functional characteristics (e.g., antioxidant and photothermal behaviors). As such, a comprehensive understanding on the relationship between material properties and desired biomedical applications, as well as the underlying mechanism at the cellular and molecular level would provide material design principles and accelerate the lab-to-clinic translation of polyphenolic platforms. In this review, we firstly give a brief overview of cell hallmarks governed by surrounding cues, followed by the introduction of polyphenolic material engineering strategies. Subsequently, a detailed discussion on cell-polyphenols contact-dependent interfacial interaction and contact-independent interaction was also carefully provided. Lastly, their biomedical applications were elaborated. We believe that this review could provide guidances for the rational material design of multifunctional polyphenols and extend their application window.

Abstract
Stable ambulatory electrophysiological sensing is widely utilized for smart e-healthcare monitoring, clinical diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, treatment of neurological diseases, and intelligent human-machine interaction. As the favorable signal interaction platform of electrophysiological sensing, the conformal property of on-skin electrodes is an extremely crucial factor that can affect the stability of long-term ambulatory electrophysiological sensing. From the perspective of materials, to realize conformal contact between electrodes and skin for stable sensing, highly conformal polymers are strongly demanding and attracting ever-growing attention. In this review, we focused on the recent progress of highly conformal polymers for ambulatory electrophysiological sensing, including their synthetic methods, conformal property, and potential applications. Specifically, three main types of highly conformal polymers for stable long-term electrophysiological signals monitoring were proposed, including nature silk fibroin based conformal polymers, marine mussels bio-inspired conformal polymers, and other conformal polymers such as zwitterionic polymers and polyacrylamide. Furthermore, the future challenges and opportunities of preparing highly conformal polymers for on-skin electrodes were also highlighted. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
The traceless and pH-sensitive properties of boronic esters are attractive for the synthesis of polymer-drug conjugates, but current platforms suffer from both low stability under physiologically relevant conditions and synthetically demanding optimization to tune drug release profiles. We hypothesized that the high catechol affinity and stability of Wulff-type boronic acids could be mimicked by copolymerization of phenyl boronic acid with a tertiary amine and subsequent micellization. This strategy yielded a versatile platform for the preparation of reversible polymer-drug conjugates, which more than doubled the oxidative stability of encapsulated polyphenolic drug cargo at physiologically relevant pH and enabled simple and incremental tuning of drug release kinetics. Moreover, we validated, with 19F NMR, that these copolymers exhibit uniquely high catechol affinity that could not be replicated by combinations of similarly functionalized small molecules. Overall, this report demonstrates that copolymerization of boronic acid and tertiary amine monomers is a powerful and modular approach to improving boronic ester chemistry for drug delivery applications.

Abstract
Stabilizing mechanisms through covalent and non-covalent interactions have been studied along the years for color stabilization of anthocyanin dyes. In this work, the chemical functionalization of a natural and biocompatible marine-based polysaccharide (alginic acid) with 3-aminophenylboronic acid via carbodiimide coupling chemistry was carried out in order to create a bifunctional material for pH-dependent selective interaction with colored cyanidin-3-glucoside chemical species. The interaction studies were performed by UV-Vis, 1H, and 11B NMR spectroscopy. Overall, the apparent acidic and hydration constants are more stabilized in the presence of phenylboronic acid-modified alginate. For more acidic pH values the red cationic flavylium cation of cyanidin-3-glucoside mainly interacts through non-covalent electrostatic interactions with the carboxylate groups of the biopolymer derivative with association constant around 0.5 mM-1 while at higher pH values boronate-catechol covalent bonds are favored, promoting the stabilization of the colored neutral and anionic quinoidal bases of anthocyanins instead of colorless hemiketal and chalcones.

Abstract
With the thriving of mussel-inspired polyphenol chemistry as well as the demand for low-cost analogues to polydopamine in adhesive design, tannic acid has gradually become a research focus because of its wide availability, health benefits and special chemical properties. As a natural building block, tannic acid could be used as a crosslinker either supramolecularly or chemically, ensuring versatile functional polymeric networks for various applications. Up to now, a systematic summary on tannic-acid-based networks has still been waiting for an update and outlook. In this review, the common features of tannic acid are summarized in detail, followed by the introduction of covalent and non-covalent crosslinking methods leading to various tannic-acid-based materials. Moreover, recent progress in the application of tannic acid composites is also summarized, including bone regeneration, skin adhesives, wound dressings, drug loading and photothermal conversion. Above all, we also provide further prospects concerning tannic-acid-crosslinked materials.

Abstract
The emergence of 3D bioprinting has allowed a variety of hydrogel-based "bioinks" to be printed in the presence of cells to create precisely defined cell-loaded 3D scaffolds in a single step for advancing tissue engineering and/or regenerative medicine. While existing bioinks based primarily on ionic cross-linking, photo-cross-linking, or thermogelation have significantly advanced the field, they offer technical limitations in terms of the mechanics, degradation rates, and the cell viabilities achievable with the printed scaffolds, particularly in terms of aiming to match the wide range of mechanics and cellular microenvironments. Click chemistry offers an appealing solution to this challenge given that proper selection of the chemistry can enable precise tuning of both the gelation rate and the degradation rate, both key to successful tissue regeneration; simultaneously, the often bio-orthogonal nature of click chemistry is beneficial to maintain high cell viabilities within the scaffolds. However, to date, relatively few examples of 3D-printed click chemistry hydrogels have been reported, mostly due to the technical challenges of controlling mixing during the printing process to generate high-fidelity prints without clogging the printer. This review aims to showcase existing cross-linking modalities, characterize the advantages and disadvantages of different click chemistries reported, highlight current examples of click chemistry hydrogel bioinks, and discuss the design of mixing strategies to enable effective 3D extrusion bioprinting of click hydrogels.

Abstract
Tea is one of the most popular beverages worldwide, and its quality is often affected by the excessive pesticide residues during production. During the detection of pesticide residues in tea by chromatography-mass spectrometry and other methods, a strong matrix effect attributed to tea polyphenols and pigments is observed, which seriously impacts the analysis results. In this study, Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles and boric acid-functionalized metal organic framework (BA-MOF) materials were combined to prepare a highly efficient adsorbent Fe3O4@BA-MOF for capturing tea polyphenols and pigments. An effective analysis method for pesticide residues in tea samples in combination with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was established. The introduction of boronic acid ligands into the metal organic framework, as the recognition site of cis-diols, enhanced the polyphenol capture ability. Adsorption of the pigment in the matrix was achieved through π-π interactions between the MOF ligand and the pigment. This new material has significant advantages such as rapid magnetic separation, large surface area, and abundant functional sites. Fe3O4@BA-MOF was prepared by employing simple conditions and characterized by Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffractometry to identify its functional groups and morphology. After investigating the adsorption effect of different doses of Fe3O4@BA-MOF adsorbents (5, 10, 30, 50, and 80 mg) on tea polyphenols, 50 mg of the adsorbent was added to the tea matrix and shaken thoroughly. The tea polyphenol content in the matrix solution was determined using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer. The polyphenols were reduced by 74.58% within 5 min. The effect of solution pH (2.0, 4.0, 6.0, and 7.0) on the adsorption efficiency was investigated, and pH 7.0 was chosen as the optimal condition. By adjusting the pH of the solution, Fe3O4@BA-MOF could be recycled, and it maintained the excellent adsorption performance after four cycles of use. The introduction of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles led to rapid magnetic response characteristics during sample pretreatment and improved the pretreatment efficiency. In the actual application of tea pesticide detection, after Fe3O4@BA-MOF pretreatment, the average recovery rates of the ten pesticides were in the range of 75.8%-138.6%, and the RSD was in the range of 0.5%-18.7% (n=3). The Fe3O4@BA-MOF nanocomposite prepared by introducing the boric acid ligand into the MOF structure and incorporating Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles could specifically adsorb the tea polyphenol matrix. When applied to the detection of pesticide residues in tea, it purifies the matrix and improves the detection efficiency, thus being suitable for the detection and analysis of pesticides in tea.

Abstract
Due to their intrinsic injectable and self-healing characteristics, dynamic hydrogels, based on dynamic covalent bonds, have gained a great attention. In this study, a novel dynamic hydrogel based on the boronic ester dynamic covalent bond is facilely developed using phenylboronic acid-modified hyaluronic acid (HA-PBA) and plant-derived polyphenol-tannic acid (TA). The dynamic hydrogel gelated quickly under mild conditions and had favorable viscoelastic properties with good self-healing and shear-thinning capabilities. Moreover, the simultaneous utilization of TA as a reductant for the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) inspired the preparation of a TA-reduced AgNP hybrid dynamic hydrogel with potent and broad-spectrum antibacterial activities. The dynamic hydrogels could also be applied for pH- and reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive release of loaded protein molecules without showing evident cytotoxicity and hemolysis in vitro. In addition, the dynamic hydrogels showed the anti-oxidative properties of high free radical and ROS scavenging capacity, which was verified by the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate) free radical assay and ROS fluorescence staining. Overall, this novel class of cytocompatible, self-healing, dual stimuli responsive, antibacterial, anti-oxidative, and injectable hydrogels could be promising as a wound dressing for chronic wound healing.

Abstract
Gelatin-based hydrogels are widely used in biomedical fields because of their abundance of bioactive motifs that support cell adhesion and matrix remodeling. Although inherently bioactive, unmodified gelatin exhibits temperature-dependent rheology and solubilizes at body temperature, making it unstable for three-dimensional (3D) cell culture. Therefore, the addition of chemically reactive motifs is required to render gelatin-based hydrogels with highly controllable cross-linking kinetics and tunable mechanical properties that are critical for 3D cell culture. This article provides a series of methods toward establishing orthogonally cross-linked gelatin-based hydrogels for dynamic 3D cell culture. In particular, we prepared dually functionalized gelatin macromers amenable for sequential, orthogonal covalent cross-linking. Central to this material platform is the synthesis of norbornene-functionalized gelatin (GelNB), which forms covalently cross-linked hydrogels via orthogonal thiol-norbornene click cross-linking. Using GelNB as the starting material, we further detail the methods for synthesizing gelatin macromers susceptible to hydroxyphenylacetic acid (HPA) dimerization (i.e., GelNB-HPA) and hydrazone bonding (i.e., GelNB-CH) for on-demand matrix stiffening. Finally, we outline the protocol for synthesizing a gelatin macromer capable of adjusting hydrogel stress relaxation via boronate ester bonding (i.e., GelNB-BA). The combination of these orthogonal chemistries affords a wide range of gelatin-based hydrogels as biomimetic matrices in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
Pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) such as sticky notes and labels are a ubiquitous part of modern society. PSAs with a wide range of peel adhesion strength are designed by tailoring the bulk and surface properties of the adhesive. However, designing an adhesive with strong initial adhesion but showing an on-demand decrease in adhesion has been an enduring challenge in the design of PSAs. To address this challenge, we designed alkoxyphenacyl-based polyurethane (APPU) PSAs that show a photoactivated increase and decrease in peel strength. With increasing time of light exposure, the failure mode of our PSAs shifted from cohesive to adhesive failure, providing residue-free removal with up to 83% decrease in peel strength. The APPU-PSAs also adhere to substrates submerged underwater and show a similar photoinduced decrease in adhesion strength.

Abstract
Polyphenols, the phenolic hydroxyl group-containing organic molecules, are widely found in natural plants and have shown beneficial effects on human health. Recently, polyphenol-containing nanoparticles have attracted extensive research attention due to their antioxidation property, anticancer activity, and universal adherent affinity, and thus have shown great promise in the preparation, stabilization, and modification of multifunctional nanoassemblies for bioimaging, therapeutic delivery, and other biomedical applications. Additionally, the metal-polyphenol networks, formed by the coordination interactions between polyphenols and metal ions, have been used to prepare an important class of polyphenol-containing nanoparticles for surface modification, bioimaging, drug delivery, and disease treatments. By focusing on the interactions between polyphenols and different materials (e.g., metal ions, inorganic materials, polymers, proteins, and nucleic acids), a comprehensive review on the synthesis and properties of the polyphenol-containing nanoparticles is provided. Moreover, the remarkable versatility of polyphenol-containing nanoparticles in different biomedical applications, including biodetection, multimodal bioimaging, protein and gene delivery, bone repair, antibiosis, and cancer theranostics is also demonstrated. Finally, the challenges faced by future research regarding the polyphenol-containing nanoparticles are discussed.

Abstract
Cross-linked polymers have attracted an immense attention over the years, however, there are many flaws of these systems, e.g. softness and brittleness; such materials possess non-adjustable properties and cannot recover from damage and thus are limited in their practical applications. Supramolecular chemistry offers a variety of dynamic interactions that when integrated into polymeric gels endow the systems with reversibility and responsiveness to external stimuli. A combination of different cross-links in a single gel could be the key to tackle these drawbacks, since covalent or chemical cross-linking serve to maintain the permanent shape of the material and to improve overall mechanical performance, whereas non-covalent cross-links impart dynamicity, reversibility, stimuli-responsiveness and often toughness to the material. In the present review we sought to give a comprehensive overview of the progress in design strategies of different types of dually cross-linked single gels made by researchers over the past decade as well as the successful implementations of these advances in many demanding fields where versatile multifunctional materials are required, such as tissue engineering, drug delivery, self-healing and adhesive systems, sensors as well as shape memory materials and actuators.

Abstract
It is important to focus on urgent needs in clinics and develop optimal materials. For successful augmentation of vocal folds, the ideal filler should be injectable through a syringe, and should stably maintain its volume for a long time without toxicity. To achieve these criteria, a click chemistry-based PEG (polyethylene glycol) hydrogel was developed and applied for vocal fold augmentation in vivo. The PEG hydrogel enables fast gelation in vivo after injection and provides long-term stability. Azide- and dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO)-modified 4-arm PEG were cross-linked by chemical conjugation via click chemistry and yielded gelation within several minutes. After subcutaneous injection into mice and rats, the PEG hydrogel showed higher stability after 1 month compared to the traditionally used calcium hydroxyapatite-carboxymethyl cellulose (CaHA-CMC) filler. In rabbit models with vocal fold paralysis, the PEG hydrogel stably fixed the paralyzed vocal fold in 4 months and minimized the glottic gap. It was an improved therapeutic result compared to CaHA-CMC, demonstrating the potential of a click chemistry-based PEG hydrogel for vocal fold therapy.

Abstract
The development of a universal coating strategy for the construction of functional surfaces and modulation of surface properties is of great research interest. Tannic acid (TA) could serve as a sole precursor for the deposition of colorless coatings on substrate surfaces. However, the deposition of TA requires a high salt concentration (0.6 M), which may limit its practical application. Herein, primary amine moieties were introduced on the gallic acid groups in TA. The resultant amine-containing TA derivative (TAA) can self-polymerize under mild conditions (10 mM, Tris buffer), and form uniform and colorless coatings in a material-independent manner. In comparison with the TA coating under the same preparation conditions, the TAA coating exhibits an increased thickness as measured by ellipsometry. The TAA coating is adapted for secondary surface functionalization. The hydrophilic mPEG brushes can be grafted on the TAA coating to inhibit non-specific protein adsorption. A biotin probe can be immobilized on the TAA coating to promote specific binding with avidin. In addition, the TAA coating can be utilized for in situ reduction of silver ions to AgNPs. The resulting AgNP-loaded TAA coating can inhibit bacterial adhesion and prevent biofilm formation.

Abstract
Although a large panel of natural antioxidants demonstrate a protective effect in preventing cellular oxidative stress, their low bioavailability limits therapeutic activity at the targeted injury site. The importance to deliver drug or cells into oxidative microenvironments can be realized with the development of biocompatible redox-modulating materials. The incorporation of antioxidant compounds within implanted biomaterials should be able to retain the antioxidant activity, while also allowing graft survival and tissue recovery. This review summarizes the recent literature reporting the combined role of natural antioxidants with biomaterials. Our review highlights how such functionalization is a promising strategy in tissue engineering to improve the engraftment and promote tissue healing or regeneration.

Abstract
The mussel byssus has long been a source of inspiration for the adhesion community. Recently, adhesive synergy between flanking lysine (Lys, K) and 3,4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA, Y) residues in the mussel foot proteins (Mfps) has been highlighted. However, the complex topological relationship of DOPA and Lys as well as the interfacial adhesive roles of other amino acids have been understudied. Herein, we study adhesion of Lys and DOPA-containing peptides to organic and inorganic substrates using single-molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS). We show that a modest increase in peptide length, from KY to (KY)3, increases adhesion strength to TiO2. Surprisingly, further increase in peptide length offers no additional benefit. Additionally, comparison of adhesion of dipeptides containing Lys and either DOPA (KY) or phenylalanine (KF) shows that DOPA is stronger and more versatile. We furthermore demonstrate that incorporating a nonadhesive spacer between (KY) repeats can mimic the hidden length in the Mfp and act as an effective strategy to dissipate energy.

Boronate-ester crosslinked hyaluronic acid hydrogels for dihydrocaffeic acid delivery and fibroblasts protection against UVB irradiation. Carbohydr Polym 2020; 247:116845.

Abstract
Herein, we exploit the dynamic nature and pH dependence of complexes between phenylboronic acid and diol-containing molecules to control the release of an anti-photoaging agent, dihydrocaffeic acid (DHCA), from a dynamic covalent hydrogel (HG). The HG is prepared by reversible formation of boronate ester crosslinks between hyaluronic acid (HA) modified with saccharide (GLU) residues and HA functionalized with 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA), part of which is involved in complexation with DHCA. The hydrogel exhibited increased dynamic moduli and a lower relaxation time at pH 7.4 in comparison to pH 6, and greater amount of DHCA was incorporated at pH 7.4. Moreover, this hydrogel prolonged DHCA release at pH 7.4 through drug reversible complexation/decomplexation, while the rate of release was fastest in acidic (skin) conditions. Very interestingly, the incorporation of DHCA into the network enhances its protection against UVB-induced L929 fibroblast death. Therefore, this smart hydrogel can contribute to photoaging prevention.

Abstract
This review deals with hydrogels as soft and biocompatible vehicles for the delivery of plant-derived (poly)phenols, compounds with low general toxicity and an extraordinary and partially unexplored wide range of biological properties, whose use presents some major issues due to their poor bioavailability and water solubility. Hydrogels are composed of polymeric networks which are able to absorb large amounts of water or biological fluids while retaining their three-dimensional structure. Apart from this primary swelling capacity, hydrogels may be easily tailored in their properties according to the chemical structure of the polymeric component in order to obtain smart delivery systems that can be responsive to various internal/external stimuli. The functionalization of the polymeric component of hydrogels may also be widely exploited to facilitate the incorporation of bioactive compounds with different physicochemical properties into the system. Several prototype hydrogel systems have been designed for effective polyphenol delivery and potential employment in the treatment of human diseases. Therefore, the inherent features of hydrogels have been the focus of considerable research efforts over the past few decades. Herein, we review the most recent advances in (poly)phenol-loaded hydrogels by analyzing them primarily from the therapeutic perspective and highlighting the innovative aspects in terms of design and chemistry.

Abstract
The construction of complex polymer architectures with well-defined topology, composition and functionality has been extensively explored as the molecular basis for the development of modern polymer materials. The unique reaction kinetics of free-radical polymerization leads to the concurrent formation of crosslinks between polymer chains and rings within an individual chain and, thus, free-radical (co)polymerization of multivinyl monomers provides a facile method to manipulate chain topology and functionality. Regulating the relative contribution of these intermolecular and intramolecular chain-propagation reactions is the key to the construction of architecturally complex polymers. This can be achieved through the design of new monomers or by spatially or kinetically controlling crosslinking reactions. These mechanisms enable the synthesis of various polymer architectures, including linear, cyclized, branched and star polymer chains, as well as crosslinked networks. In this Review, we highlight some of the contemporary experimental strategies to prepare complex polymer architectures using radical polymerization of multivinyl monomers. We also examine the recent development of characterization techniques for sub-chain connections in such complex macromolecules. Finally, we discuss how these crosslinking reactions have been engineered to generate advanced polymer materials for use in a variety of biomedical applications.

Abstract
Marine mussels are able to firmly affix on various wet surfaces by the overproduction of special mussel foot proteins (mfps). Abundant fundamental studies have been conducted to understand the molecular basis of mussel adhesion, where the catecholic amino acid, l-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) has been found to play the major role. These studies continue to inspire the engineering of novel adhesives and coatings with improved underwater performances. Despite the fact that the recent advances of adhesives and coatings inspired by mussel adhesive proteins have been intensively reviewed in literature, the fundamental biochemical and biophysical studies on the origin of the strong and versatile wet adhesion have not been fully covered. In this review, we show how the force measurements at the molecular level by surface force apparatus (SFA) and single molecule atomic force microscopy (AFM) can be used to reveal the direct link between DOPA and the wet adhesion strength of mussel proteins. We highlight a few important technical details that are critical to the successful experimental design. We also summarize many new insights going beyond DOPA adhesion, such as the surface environment and protein sequence dependent synergistic and cooperative binding. We also provide a perspective on a few uncharted but outstanding questions for future studies. A comprehensive understanding on mussel adhesion will be beneficial to the design of novel synthetic wet adhesives for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
Supramolecular hydrogel delivery systems have attracted widely attention owing to incorporating various therapeutic agents in carriers to decrease unpredictable toxicities, improve curative efficacy, and protect drug bioactivity. Nonetheless, the dual-functional supramolecular hydrogel integrating localized delivery and antineoplastic activities in one system have rarely observed. In this study, we successfully developed a novel supramolecular hydrogel, isoguanosine-borate-guanosine (isoGBG), with reversibly and dynamic borate ester bonds formed via boric acids and diols derived from nature products guanosine and isoguanosine in one pot by following a simple procedure. Both in vivo and in vitro results demonstrated that the isoGBG hydrogel not only displays excellent stability, self-healing properties and biocompatibility, but also has highly anti-tumor activities through inducing tumor cell apoptosis and excellent inhibition effect of tumor recurrence. These findings suggested that isoGBG hydrogel can serve as a dual-function hydrogel system integrating drug carrier and anti-cancer compound in one system, which provided a promising strategy for the design of functional supramolecular hydrogel in the local management of cancer in the future.

Abstract
The interest in injectable hydrogels for cancer treatment has been significantly growing over the last decade, due to the availability of a wide range of starting polymer structures with tailored features and high chemical versatility. Many research groups are working on the development of highly engineered injectable delivery vehicle systems suitable for combined chemo-and radio-therapy, as well as thermal and photo-thermal ablation, with the aim of finding out effective solutions to overcome the current obstacles of conventional therapeutic protocols. Within this work, we have reviewed and discussed the most recent injectable hydrogel systems, focusing on the structure and properties of the starting polymers, which are mainly classified into natural or synthetic sources. Moreover, mapping the research landscape of the fabrication strategies, the main outcome of each system is discussed in light of possible clinical applications.

Abstract
Bovine caudal discs have been widely used in spine research due to their increased availability, large size, and mechanical and biochemical properties that are comparable to healthy human discs. However, despite their extensive use, the radial variations in bovine disc composition have not yet been rigorously quantified with high spatial resolution. Previous studies were limited to qualitative analyses or provided limited spatial resolution in biochemical properties. Thus, the main objective of this study was to provide quantitative measurements of biochemical composition with higher spatial resolution than previous studies that employed traditional biochemical techniques. Specifically, traditional biochemical analyses were used to measure water, sulfated glycosaminoglycan, collagen, and DNA contents. Gravimetric water content was compared to data obtained through Raman spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. Additionally, spatial distribution of lipids in the disc's collagen network was visualized and quantified, for the first time, using multi-modal second harmonic generation (SHG) and Coherent anti-Stokes Raman (CARS) microscopy. Some heterogeneity was observed in the nucleus pulposus, where the water content and water-to-protein ratio of the inner nucleus were greater than the outer nucleus. In contrast, the bovine annulus fibrosus exhibited a more heterogeneous distribution of biochemical properties. Comparable results between orthohydroxyproline assay and SHG imaging highlight the potential benefit of using SHG microscopy as a less destructive method for measuring collagen content, particularly when relative changes are of interest. CARS images showed that lipid deposits were distributed equally throughout the disc and appeared either as individual droplets or as clusters of small droplets. In conclusion, this study provided a more comprehensive assessment of spatial variations in biochemical composition of the bovine caudal disc.

Abstract
Biomedical hydrogels as sole repair matrices or combined with pre-seeded cells and bioactive growth factors are extensively applied in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Hydrogels normally provide three dimensional structures for cell adhesion and proliferation or the controlled release of the loading of drugs or proteins. Various physiochemical properties of hydrogels endow them with distinct applications. In this review, we present the commonly used crosslinking method for hydrogel synthesis involving physical and chemical crosslinks and summarize their current progress and future perspectives.

Abstract
The ability to behave in a fluidlike manner fundamentally separates thermoset and thermoplastic polymers. Bridging this divide, covalent adaptable networks (CANs) structurally resemble thermosets with permanent covalent crosslinks but are able to flow in a manner that resembles thermoplastic behavior only when a dynamic chemical reaction is active. As a consequence, the rheological behavior of CANs becomes intrinsically tied to the dynamic reaction kinetics and the stimuli that are used to trigger those, including temperature, light, and chemical stimuli, providing unprecedented control over viscoelastic properties. CANs represent a highly capable material that serves as a powerful tool to improve mechanical properties and processing in a wide variety of polymer applications, including composites, hydrogels, and shape-memory polymers. This review aims to highlight the enabling material properties of CANs and the applied fields where the CAN concept has been embraced.
