Hydrogels have become an attractive option for tissue repair. A novel multifunctional hydrogel was developed using a two-step method involving photopolymerization and tannic acid (TA) solution incubation. The mechanical properties of this hydrogel were enhanced by the multi-hydrogen bond interaction between the TA and N-acryloyl glycinamide/gelatin methacrylate (NAGA/GelMA). The compressive modulus was doubled. The compressive strengths of the hydrogel were 5.5 MPa. The swelling rate was reduced by a factor of three. The adhesion strength of the composite hydrogel reached 80 KPa. The TA-mediated NAGA/GelMA/Laponite composite hydrogel exhibited excellent anti-fatigue and anti-oxidation properties, as well as printability. experiments indicated that the TA-mediated hydrogel facilitated the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation. The developed multifunctional composite hydrogel has great potential for osteochondral defect repair under osteoarthritis conditions.

Bone defects represent a significant challenge in clinical practice, driving the need for innovative solutions that effectively support bone regeneration. Barrier membranes, due to playing a critical role in creating an environment conducive to bone regeneration by preventing the infiltration of non-osteogenic tissues, are widely applied to bone repair. However, inadequate spatial stability and osteogenesis-promoting ability often limit current barrier membranes.

Since cartilage injury is often accompanied by subchondral bone damage, conventional single-phase materials cannot accurately simulate the osteochondral structure or repair osteochondral injury. In this work, a gradient gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel scaffold was constructed by a layer-by-layer stacking method to realize full-thickness regeneration of cartilage, calcified cartilage and subchondral bone. Of note, to surmount the inadequate mechanical property of GelMA hydrogel, nanohydroxyapatite (nHA) was incorporated and further functionalized with hydroxyethyl methacrylate (nHA-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, nHAMA) to enhance the interfacial adhesion with the hydrogel, resulting in better mechanical strength akin to human bone.

Conductive hydrogels with exceptional mechanical properties have received extensive attention in flexible strain sensors. However, there is still a huge challenge in the preparation of hydrogels with high toughness, conductivity and frost resistance performance. In this study, the prepared PA-PAAM-CS (PPAC) composite hydrogels were obtained by incorporating phytic acid (PA) and chitosan (CS) into poly(acrylamide-co-stearyl methacrylate) (PAAM) polymer network.
