Purpose: In this work, we propose an in situ precise electrospinning of medical glue fibers onto dural wound for improving sealing capability, avoiding tissue adhesion, and saving time in dural repair.
Methods: N-octyl-2-cyanoacrylate, a commercial tissue adhesive (medical glue), can be electrospun into ultrathin fibrous film with precise and homogeneous deposition by a gas-assisted electrospinning device.
Results: The self-assembled N-octyl-2-cyanoacrylate film shows high compactness and flexibility owing to its fibrous structure. Simulation experiments on egg membranes and goat meninges demonstrated that this technology can repair small membrane defects quickly and efficiently.
Conclusion: This method may have potential application in dural repair, for example, working as an effective supplementary technique for conventional dura suture.

This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of α-n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) glue in comparison with traditional embolization materials for the treatment of acute renal hemorrhage. A total of 105 patients with the acute renal hemorrhage who underwent superselective renal artery embolization were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups based on the embolization materials used: the traditional group (43 cases, control group) and the medical glue group (62 cases, observation group).

Background And Objectives: Serous otitis media (SOM), also called otitis media with effusion (OME) or glue ear, is a collection of non-purulent fluid within the middle ear space. Children with cleft palate are more prone to develop this condition. This is caused by impaired eustachian tube function in cleft palate.

Sulfur-fluoride exchange (SuFEx) reaction is an emerging class of click chemistry reaction. Owing to its efficient reactivity under physiological conditions, SuFEx reaction is used to construct covalent protein drugs. Herein, a covalent affibody-molecular glue drug conjugate nanoagent is reported, which can irreversibly bind with its target protein through proximity-enabled SuFEx reaction.
