Covalent Binding of Dexamethasone to Polyimide Improves Biocompatibility of Neural Implantable Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The covalent binding of dexamethasone to the surface of polyimide represents the electrically inert part of implantable intraneural devices. This ensures a sustained release of the drug for 9 weeks. In vitro and in vivo tests confirm the reduction of the foreign body reactions and the improved biocompatibility of dexamethasone functionalized polyimide.

Semiconducting Polymer Nanoparticles as Multimodal Agents for Optical and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs) exhibit many advantageous optical and biological properties. Multimodal SPN‐based contrast agents that integrate several imaging modalities yield a wealth of information through the use of different imaging mechanisms.

Dendrimer Conjugates with PD‐L1‐Binding Peptides Enhance In Vivo Antitumor Immune Response

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this paper, a novel nanoparticle scaffold composed of dendrimers conjugated with peptide‐based immune checkpoint inhibitors, enhancing drug delivery efficacy is introduced. By conjugating PD‐L1‐binding peptides to dendrimers, multivalent binding effects are harnessed, resulting in enhanced binding affinity, prolonged half‐life, and improved ...

Combination of Polydopamine and Plasma Oxidation Increases Tissue Integration of Polyurethane‐Silicone Copolymers for Cardiovascular Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Plasma oxidation following polydopamine deposition can significantly reduce the surface hydrophobicity of polyurethane‐siloxanes without impacting surface roughness, thereby increasing fibroblast viability, adhesion, and extracellular matrix production and secretion.

Peptide Display Directed Assembly of Biopolymer Core–Silica Shell Particles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bacterial cells are engineered to produce biopolyester particles displaying peptides mediating growth of silica. Peptide‐coated biopolyester particles are treated with silica precursors and silica shell formation is studied. Transmission electron microscopy shows silica‐coated BPs which are formed after the silicification treatment. Characterization of
