Engineering Highly Cellularized Living Materials via Mechanical Agitation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A mechanical agitation strategy is developed to engineer highly cellularized living materials, achieving cell densities of up to 1 billion cells per milliliter. By precisely tuning properties such as stiffness and toughness in blood clots, the approach is validated in both in vitro and in vivo studies.

Salt‐Compact Albumin as a New Pure Protein‐based Biomaterials: From Design to In Vivo Studies

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
A new class of materials built entirely of native albumin protein is designed using a simple protocol based on salt‐assisted compaction, breaking with current crosslinking strategies. This green process leads, surprisingly, to water‐insoluble handable materials with high preservation of their native protein structures and Young's modulus close to that ...

Soft Nanocarriers as Antimicrobial Co‐Delivery Systems to Combat Resistant Infections

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Soft nanocarrier‐based co‐delivery systems present a versatile and promising platform for combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR) by enabling spatiotemporally controlled, pathogen‐specific drug release. Their tunable physicochemical properties allow for the co‐encapsulation of synergistic antimicrobial agents, optimization of drug ratios, and surface ...

Lymphoid and CXCR4 Cell Targeted Lipid Nanoparticles Facilitate HIV‐1 Proviral DNA Excision

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Advancements in ART improve HIV‐1 patient outcomes but are unable to eliminate latent viral DNA. To address this, CXCR4‐targeted lipid nanoparticles (T‐LNPs) for delivering CRISPR‐Cas9 to excise HIV‐1 DNA in infected cells are developed. These T‐LNPs achieve ≈60% HIV‐1 DNA excision efficacy in blood and splenic tissue, demonstrating promise for ...

Safety Evaluation of Repeated Application of Polymeric Microarray Patches in Miniature Pigs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the safety of repeated application of three types of microarray patches (MAPs), hydrogelforming, dissolving, and implantable, over four weeks in miniature pigs. No adverse skin or systemic effects were observed, supporting the clinical potential of MAPs as safe and effective drug delivery platforms.
