Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

A Self‐Curling Si3N4‐Biofunctionalized Nerve Wrap for Suture‐Free Peripheral Nerve Repair with Multimodal Regenerative Bioregulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Si3N4‐enhanced bioactive nanostructured adhesive wrap enables rapid conduit formation in wet environments, simplifying surgical procedures. Incorporated Si3N4 undergoes controlled hydrolysis within nanofibers, multi‐directionally modulating the peripheral nerve repair microenvironment for effective suture‐free repair.

Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

Optimization of the Nonclinical Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Using Toxicologic Pathology Best Practices

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Nonclinical evaluation of biological responses to implanted medical devices and combination products in animals is required to predict possible outcomes and risks in patients. This paper describes globally accepted pathology “best practices” that 1) effectively address ISO standards and current regulatory guidance for medical device development and 2 ...

Development of a Novel Synthetic Hydrogel Sealant for Effective Prevention of Liver Resection‐Associated Bile Leakage

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐crosslinking poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) hydrogel is presented that rapidly solidifies and progressively adheres to tissue, achieving durable sealing of bile leaks. In hepatectomy models, this system prevents postoperative complications more effectively than conventional sealants, highlighting its translational potential as a safe and efficient ...
