Hydrogel‐Based Smart Materials for Wound Healing and Sensing

open access: yesAggregate, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract illustrates the role of hydrogel‐based flexible materials in advancing biomedical applications, including wound healing, point‐of‐care diagnostics, smart patches, and wearable devices. Hydrogels are particularly promising in modern wound care due to their high‐water content, flexibility, and biocompatibility.

Expression of factor V by resident macrophages boosts host defense in the peritoneal cavity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Macrophages resident in different organs express distinct genes, but understanding how this diversity fits into tissue-specific features is limited. Here, we show that selective expression of coagulation factor V (FV) by resident peritoneal macrophages ...

Sensor‐Embedded Muscle for Closed‐Loop Controllable Actuation in Proprioceptive Biohybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Skeletal muscle tissue‐based bioactuators move in response to externally applied electrical stimuli in open‐loop control, which lacks knowledge of the actuator's state. Herein, a soft and fiber‐shaped piezoresistive mechanosensor that integrates with the soft tissue and operates in the cell culture environment is used to create the first proprioceptive

Progress in Biomimetic Microdevices for Anticancer Drug Screening and their Potential for Enhancing In Vivo Efficacy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Biomimetic microdevices are redefining anticancer drug screening by mimicking complex tumor microenvironments. This review highlights advances in microfluidic systems, cell microarrays, and in vivo‐like models, offering new insights into drug efficacy prediction and personalized medicine. The development of effective anticancer drugs remains a critical

Sacrificial strategy towards the formation of vascular‐like networks in volumetric tissue constructs

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This mini‐review highlights the latest progress in the sacrificial template‐enabled creation of patent vascular‐like networks, which can be incorporated into volumetric tissue constructs. Such microchannel networks can provide an immediate supply of nutrition and O2 to those cells residing next to the channels.

Systemic T‐cell and local macrophage interactions mediate granule size‐dependent biological hydroxyapatite foreign body reaction

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This study expanded our understanding of the size effect of biological hydroxyapatite (BHA) granules from a biological perspective rather than physical defect accommodation. Besides, we proposed the multi‐level structure of commercially available BHA granules based on their microstructure and provided a biological mechanism for the classification of ...

Neutrophil Adhesion to Fibrinogen and Fibrin Under Flow Conditions Is Diminished by Activation and L-Selectin Shedding [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The adhesion of neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes [PMNs]) to immobilized fibrinogen/fibrin is mediated by b2-integrins. However, the influence of physiologic flow con- ditions on neutrophil adhesion to these surfaces is poorly defined.

Blood clot inspired pore‐gradient nanofiber sponge with “outer filtration” and “inner adsorption” bifunction for rapid stop of uncontrolled hemorrhage

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
In this study, by mimicking the nanofiber structure and netting blood cells function of fibrin network in blood clots, we developed a novel bioinspired quaternized chitosan nanofiber sponge with distinct blood cell filtration and blood plasma absorption bifunction for rapid hemostasis.

Effect of suturing in root coverage via coronally advanced flaps: A systematic review

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background To analyze the evidence about the influence of the suturing technique and material in terms of the percentage of mean root coverage (%MRC) following root coverage therapy in teeth diagnosed with single/localized gingival recession defects (GRD) via a monolaminar coronally advanced flap. Methods The protocol of this systematic review

In vitro ultrastructure and biodegradation of activated plasma albumin gel derived from human samples: A prospective observational study

open access: yesClinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In soft tissue regeneration, the clinical efficacy of fibrin membranes has been a pressing concern. The key to this efficacy lies in the stability of membrane and its controlled absorption. Human serum albumin, with its influence on the formation and stability of fibrin networks, could hold the key to developing a more stable ...
