Considerable advances have been made in developing materials that promote wound healing and inhibit scar formation in clinical settings. However, some challenges, such as cumbersome treatment processes and determination of optimal treatment time, remain unresolved. Thus, developing a multifunctional wound dressing with both wound healing and scar inhibition properties is crucial.

Herein, we synthesized novel dissymmetric 3,5-bis(arylidene)-4-piperidones (BAPs, ) and characterized fully. MTT and ELISA assay were performed to screen the anti-hepatoma and anti-inflammation properties.

In the present study, five O-quaternized chitosan (QAS-CS) materials with satisfactory antibacterial activity and no cytotoxicity were successfully synthesized. Furthermore, we reported the synthesis and characterization of the two novel composite nanofibrous scaffolds consisting of selfdeveloped collagen (COL), quaternary ammonium salt (QAS) or QAS-CS and polycaprolactone (PCL) or polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with an electrospinning approach.
