Hydrogels Augmented With Artificial Sweeteners can Inhibit Multidrug‐Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii Growth and Biofilm Formation While Demonstrating Safety in Pre‐Clinical Pilot Human Trials

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using PVA–borax hydrogels as carriers for off‐the‐shelf artificial sweeteners to fight multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii. These soft, biocompatible hydrogels rapidly reduce bacterial viability within multidrug‐resistant A. baumannii biofilms by more than 99% within one hour and sustain antimicrobial activity over time, while demonstrating safety in both

A Systematic Study of GelMA‐Carbopol Bioinks for High‐Fidelity Extrusion 3D Bioprinting at Physiological Temperatures

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Gonzalez Martinez and collaborators develop a strategy to formulate high performance GelMA‐based bioinks with low solids contents. The resulting bioinks enable 3D bioprinting at 37 °C of high‐fidelity structures with tunable mechanical properties that support high cell viability and function.

Ecofriendly and sustainable metal-free leather tanning using novel poly(carbamoyl sulfonate) technology

Collagen and Leather
Despite its potential as a metal-free tanning agent capable of eliminating Cr pollution in the leather industry, the conventional preparation of poly(carbamoyl sulfonate) faces challenges, such as the extensive use of low-boiling organic solvents and low

Cellular Responses to Mechanical Cues Across Scales: From Fundamental Insights to Translational Potential

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines how cellular behavior is regulated by mechanical cues transmitted through soft biomaterials, from single‐cell mechanosensing to tissue‐level adaptation. It highlights why physiological relevance, rather than model complexity alone, is critical for translational mechanobiology and introduces a scoring framework linking material ...

Differential regulation of collagen, lysyl oxidase and MMP-2 in human periodontal ligament cells by low- and high-level mechanical stretching

, 2014
Background and Objective Mechanical stretching modulates extracellular matrix (ECM) protein synthesis by periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. However, the mechanoregulation of lysyl oxidase (LOX), a key enzyme for collagen cross-linking, is not fully ...

Injectable dECM-enhanced hyaluronic microgels with spatiotemporal release of cartilage-specific molecules to improve osteoarthritic chondrocyte’s function

Collagen and Leather
The interior environment of articular cartilage in osteoarthritis (OA) presents substantial hurdles, leading to the malfunction of chondrocytes and the breakdown of collagen II-enriched hyaline cartilage matrix.

Patient‐Derived 3D Heart‐On‐a‐Chip Model of Dilated Cardiomyopathy With Embedded Bead‐Based Mapping of Tissue Contractility

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A heart‐on‐a‐chip model of dilated cardiomyopathy is developed from patient‐derived induced pluripotent stem cells. The model recapitulates key disease phenotypes and enables functional assessment through integrated bead‐based tracking and pillar deflection measurements.

Increased Crystallinity but Unchanged Crystallographic Fiber Period of Collagen Fiber with Aging [PDF]

, 2001
The x-ray small angle scattering method disclosed that the crystallographic fiber of gerbil tail tendon collagen did not change with aging. Two kinds of scattering profiles were recognized ; crystalline diffraction spots and the amorphous diffuse ...
