Multifunctional Bioactive Coatings Based on Bioglass, Vitamin D3, and Melittin Deposited via MAPLE for Enhanced Osseointegration, Antibacterial Activity, and Corrosion Resistance of Titanium Implants

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Matrix‐Assisted Pulsed Laser Evaporation (MAPLE) technique is used to cover titanium (Ti) substrates with multifunctional bioactive coatings composed of bioglass, vitamin D3, and melittin. Coatings exhibited excellent chemical integrity and favorable micro/nanostructured morphology (promoting cellular adhesion and viability), and a sustained release of

Disruption of Sulfur Metabolism and Redox Homeostasis in Staphylococcus aureus Using Mechanically Robust Antibiofilm Ti‐Bi Alloys

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Titanium (Ti) and bismuth (Bi) are selected as alloying elements for the preparation of the Ti‐Bi binary alloy system. Biofilm formation is found to be inhibited by bismuth through the disruption of sulfur metabolism and redox homeostasis, as well as through the direct downregulation of biofilm‐associated proteins.

Damage Microenvironment Guided Responsive Smart Hydrogel Design for Self‐Regenerative Repair in Chronic Wound Healing

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Chronic wounds remain a major therapeutic challenge, with VEGF applications hindered by rapid degradation and systemic side effects. Here, a dual‐responsive chitosan–gelatin hydrogel is reported, functionalized with dopamine, glutathione, and MMP‐sensitive motifs, enabling spatiotemporally controlled VEGF release and enhanced biocompatibility, thereby ...
