Injectable Photocrosslinked Hydrogel Dressing Encapsulating Quercetin-Loaded Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 for Skin Wound Healing.

: Wound management is a critical component of clinical practice. Promoting timely healing of wounds is essential for patient recovery. Traditional treatments have limited efficacy due to prolonged healing times, excessive inflammatory responses, and susceptibility to infection.

Multifunctional Dual Nano-MOF-Modified Decellularized Small Intestinal Submucosa Membrane Accelerates Healing of Infected Wound.

The treatment of complex or chronic skin wounds caused by burns, trauma, surgery, and genetic disorders has been a worldwide challenge. Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) is a biological material that is widely used in wound healing. How to further expand the wound healing application of SIS, especially in repairing infected wounds, remains a hot research topic for many tissue engineering and biomaterial scholars focusing on skin regeneration.

A review of biomacromolecule-based 3D bioprinting strategies for structure-function integrated repair of skin tissues.

When skin is damaged or affected by diseases, it often undergoes irreversible scar formation, leading to aesthetic concerns and psychological distress for patients. In cases of extensive skin defects, the patient's life can be severely compromised. In recent years, 3D printing technology has emerged as a groundbreaking approach to skin tissue engineering, offering promising solutions to various skin-related conditions.

Nano-Topographically Guided, Biomineralized, 3D-Printed Polycaprolactone Scaffolds with Urine-Derived Stem Cells for Promoting Bone Regeneration.

Currently, biomineralization is widely used as a surface modification approach to obtain ideal material surfaces with complex hierarchical nanostructures, morphologies, unique biological functions, and categorized organizations. The fabrication of biomineralized coating for the surfaces of scaffolds, especially synthetic polymer scaffolds, can alter surface characteristics, provide a favorable microenvironment, release various bioactive substances, regulate the cellular behaviors of osteoblasts, and promote bone regeneration after implantation. However, the biomineralized coating fabricated by immersion in a simulated body fluid has the disadvantages of non-uniformity, instability, and limited capacity to act as an effective reservoir of bioactive ions for bone regeneration.

Recent advances in metal-organic frameworks for stimuli-responsive drug delivery.

After entering the human body, drugs for treating diseases, which are prone to delivery and release in an uncontrolled manner, are affected by various factors. Based on this, many researchers utilize various microenvironmental changes encountered during drug delivery to trigger drug release and have proposed stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have become promising stimuli-responsive agents to release the loaded therapeutic agents at the target site to achieve more precise drug delivery due to their high drug loading, excellent biocompatibility, and high stimuli-responsiveness.
