Plasma‐Polymerized Nanoparticles Presenting Fibrillin‐1 Drive Rapid Re‐Endothelialization of Vascular Grafts

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Commercial vascular grafts are made from ePTFE, a highly hydrophobic, foreign material that fails at a high rate in small‐diameter applications. Plasma polymer nanoparticles (PPN) are a versatile material functionalisation tool, used here to present fibrillin‐1 fragment PF8 on the graft surface.

Synthetic Cell‐Based Tissues for Bottom‐Up Assembly of Artificial Lymphatic Organs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Synthetic cells have emerged as a novel biomimetic approach for fundamental research and therapeutic interventions. T cell activating synthetic cells are able to form 3D tissue‐like structures by self‐assembly into lymphatic bottom‐up tissues (lymphBUT) with tunable biochemical and biomechanical functionalities as well as metabolic activity are ...

Molecular Simulations of Polymer‐based Drug Nanocarriers: From Physical and Structural Properties to Controlled Release

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based drug delivery systems can effectively overcome the limitations of free drugs in terms of solubility, stability, and plasma half‐life, yet their development has traditionally relied on time‐consuming trial‐and‐error approaches. This review highlights recent advances in applying molecular simulation to the design of polymer‐based drug ...

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 ...

Harnessing Advances in Bone Tissue Engineering for Design of Bone‐on‐Chip Systems

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐on‐chip (BoC) systems demonstrate significant potential as next‐generation models to study human (patho)physiology and evaluate new therapies. However, progress toward functional, human‐like BoCs has been hindered by the structural and functional complexity of bone. This perspective discusses how insights from bone tissue engineering can guide BoC

Natural Sweetener Stevioside‐Based Dissolving Microneedles Solubilize Minoxidil for the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study addresses limitations of minoxidil (MXD) in treating androgenetic alopecia by using stevioside (STV) as a solubilizing agent and microneedle (MN) material. STV enhanced MXD's solubility and skin absorption, leading to improved drug delivery and significant hair regrowth in animal models, demonstrating strong potential for AGA treatment ...

Living Materials Approach for In Situ Bio‐Polymers Production Using Bacillus Paralicheniformis in Microneedles

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Dissolvable microneedle (MN) device containing Bacillus paralicheniformis. The polymeric matrix encapsulates and protects the bacteria, preserving their viability while enabling in situ production and release of γ‐polyglutamic acid. The bacteria are delivered into the skin via 500 µm‐long microneedles, and remain detectable on the skin 24 h post ...
