Skeletal disorders pose significant challenges to health and quality of life, underscoring the critical need for innovative bone repair methods. Recent studies have spotlighted the promising role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in conjunction with biomimetic peptide (BP) WKYMVm (WK) for bone repair. This research leveraged a self-healing hydrogel as a carrier, effectively loading EVs and WK to enhance treatment efficacy.

In retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and choroideremia, a key pathophysiologic step is loss of endothelial cells of the choriocapillaris. Repopulation of choroidal vasculature early in the disease process may halt disease progression. Prior studies have shown that injection of donor cells in suspension results in significant cellular efflux and poor cell survival.

Hydrogels are promising wound dressings due to their extracellular matrix-like properties and tunable structure-function characteristics. Besides the physical isolation effect, hydrogel dressings are highly expected to possess tissue-adhesive performance and antibacterial capacity, which are beneficial for their clinical translations. Herein, a guar gum (GG)-based nanocomposite hydrogel was fabricated by mixing methacrylated GG (GGMA), acrylic acid, acrylated 3-aminophenylboronic acid, mangiferin (MF)-loaded cetyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC) micelles (MF@CTAC) and radical initiator.
