In this study, the effects of konjac glucomannan (KGM) at different concentrations on the physiochemical and sensory properties of soy protein isolate (SPI), pea protein isolate (PPI), or peanut protein isolate (PNPI) compound gels were investigated. The results revealed that when the ratio of PNPI to KGM was 90:10, the denaturation temperature of PNPI could be significantly enhanced to 119.32°C by KGM modification. Concerning the textural and microstructural features, the amount of KGM addition had positive correlation with the hardness and chewiness of each compound gel, however, too much KGM addition will cause the unstable internal structure of the PNPI/KGM compound gels (70:30 and 60:40). Furthermore, sensory results indicated that PNPI/KGM (80:20), PPI/KGM (80:20), SPI/KGM (80:20) had great potential to be considered as prototypes for novel plant-based products, which generated the highest acceptance scores of 5.04, 5.94, and 5.36 in each group, respectively.

Diabetic wounds are characterized by chronic inflammation, reduced angiogenesis, and insufficient collagen deposition, leading to impaired healing. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC) offer a promising cell-free therapeutic strategy, yet their efficacy and immunomodulation can be enhanced through bioactivation. In this study, we developed calcium silicate (CS)-stimulated ADSC-derived EVs (CSEV) incorporated into collagen hydrogels to create a sustained-release system for promoting diabetic wound healing.

Liposomes are gaining interest in food and pharmaceutical applications due to their biocompatibility and non-toxicity. However, they suffer from low colloidal stability, leakage of encapsulated substances, and poor resistance to intestinal digestive conditions. To address these issues, propolis extract (PE) was encapsulated within a hybrid system combining liposomes and hydrogels.

Marine polysaccharide hydrogels have emerged as an innovative platform for regulating the in vivo release of natural bioactive compounds for medical purposes. These hydrogels, which have exceptional biocompatibility, biodegradability, and high water absorption capacity, create effective matrices for encapsulating different bioactive molecules. In addition, by modifying the physical and chemical properties of marine hydrogels, including cross-linking density, swelling behavior, and response to external stimuli like pH, temperature, or ionic strength, the release profile of encapsulated bioactive compounds is strictly regulated, thus maximizing therapeutic efficacy and minimizing side effects.
