Granular Hydrogels as Modular Biomaterials: From Structural Design to Biological Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Granular hydrogels are now emerging as promising biomaterials due to their inherent microporousity, injectability, and modularity. They have shown improvements in cell viability and migration, cellular/tissue infiltration, host tissue integration, mitigated foreign body response, and tissue regeneration.

Co‐Delivery of Ca‐MOF and Mg‐MOF Using Nanoengineered Hydrogels to Promote In Situ Mineralization and Bone Defect Repair: In Vitro and In Vivo Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) have been synthesized using calcium (Ca‐MOF), magnesium (Mg‐MOF), and as hybrids (Ca/Mg‐MOF) for bone healing applications. MOFs are integrated into hydrogel polymer networks for injectable, sprayable, and coating applications.

Microbubble Shell Stiffness Engineering Enhances Ultrasound Imaging, Drug Delivery, and Sonoporation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
 Shell‐engineered poly(alkyl cyanoacrylate) microbubbles with tunable stiffness improve ultrasound imaging and therapy. Adjusting the length of the alkyl chain and the glass transition temperature maintains a narrow microbubble size distribution while enhancing drug loading, sonoporation and the acoustic response.
