Hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine surface‐engineered bioprosthetic heart valves with anti‐calcification, anti‐infection, and durability

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Electron compensation‐gated nanomotor for immunomodulation and microenvironment remodeling in bacterial pneumonia therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A nanomotor featuring an “electronic lock” via electron compensation in an Au‐Ag alloy ensures therapeutic precision. Near‐infrared light acts as a key, unlocking on‐demand Ag+ release for synergistic bactericidal action and microenvironment remodeling to potently treat bacterial pneumonia. Abstract Bacterial pneumonia treatment is severely hampered by

Exosome‐mimetic vesicle‐encapsulated multi‐responsive antibacterial hydrogel core‐shell microneedle patch promotes scarless healing of infected wounds

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The core‐shell microneedle patch VP@FNV‐CuO2‐MN was fabricated by encapsulating n‐CuO2 in a moderately crosslinked PVA/CMCS/Borax4 hydrogel shell and VP‐loaded fibroblast membrane nanovesicles (VP@FNV) in a highly crosslinked PVA/CMCS/Borax6 hydrogel core. Upon application to an infected wound, the acidic microenvironment triggers Fenton‐like reactions

Beyond antimicrobials: Ecological nano‐strategies for rebalancing dysbiotic oral microbial homeostasis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Oral microbial homeostasis, a dynamic host‐microbe balance, is vital in infectious diseases. Conventional antibiotics often disrupt this homeostasis, spurring interest in nanomaterials for oral microbial homeostasis rebalancing. This review outlines nanomaterial strategies across three ecological levels (population/community, ecosystem, and cross ...

Engineering programmable peptide hydrogels for chronic refractory wounds: A mechanism‐driven framework

BMEMat, EarlyView.
To break the self‐perpetuating pathology of chronic wounds, we propose a mechanism‐driven engineering framework for peptide‐based hydrogels. This review elucidates a hierarchical strategy—from molecular design to intelligent, multi‐functional systems—that enables these programmable biomaterials to dynamically intervene in key pathological loops and ...
