Photoaging, primarily caused by ultraviolet (UV) light, is the major factor in extrinsic skin aging. Existing anti-photoaging strategies mainly focus on early sun protection or repairing damaged skin, lacking a comprehensive treatment strategy. Therefore, this study developed a dressing that actively shields against UV radiation and repairs photoaged skin, offering double protection. This study utilized exosome-like nanovesicles derived from leaves (OLELNVs), enhancing them into a potent core biomaterial with high-dose effects and skin-friendly, non-cytotoxic inhibition of cell aging. These nanovesicles were incorporated into a cross-linked hyaluronic acid (HA) and tannic acid (TA) hydrogel with strong UV-absorbing properties, creating the OLELNVs@HA/TA hydrogel system. and experiments demonstrated that OLELNVs@HA/TA hydrogel can effectively reduce UV-induced skin damage and promote skin repair and regeneration. Additionally, RNA-seq and clustering analysis of miR168a-5p predicted targets revealed significant down-regulation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, mediating inflammatory aging responses. Overall, the OLELNVs@HA/TA hydrogel represents a novel dual-strategy approach for clinical application in combating photoaging.

Healing of diabetic wounds is significantly impeded by a complex environment comprising biofilm formation, excessive inflammation, and compromised angiogenic capacity, leading to a disordered physiological healing process. Restoration and maintenance of a normal and orderly healing process in diabetic wounds remain unmet therapeutic objectives. Herein, an innovative bimetal-phenolic network hydrogel system is designed with a concentric circular structure, enabling dual-drug delivery with differentiated release kinetics.

On account of the existence of antibiotic resistance, the wound healing of pathogenic infection is still a challenge in modern society. A desirable wound dressing should own the abilities of adhesiveness, hemostasis and good mechanical property, meanwhile the property of eliminating bacteria without side effects is also highly needed. In this work, we established a kind of hydrogel based on carboxymethyl cellulose-graft-tyramine (CMC-Ty) and MXene (TiCT) through employing HO/HRP (horseradish peroxidase) as the initiator, then the as-prepared hydrogel (named CMC-Ty/MXene) was immersed in tannic acid (TA) solution, and this TA-treated hydrogel was called CMC-Ty/MXene+TA.

Acute severe trauma is often associated with rapid blood loss and a high risk of infection. Based on these concerns, this study successfully constructed a multifunctional dual-layer bioactive sponge PCCT with rapid hemostatic and infection-preventing ability. Its external surface is an electrospun poly(lactic acid) (PLA) nanofiber thin film layer, which ensures its high air permeability and effectively protects against external bacterial invasion.

Photothermal therapy (PTT) has widely been utilized for postoperative treatment of skin cancer, while high temperature, usually >50 °C, would induce damage to healthy tissue and increased wound inflammation. Herein, we developed an "all in one" hydrogel to enhance mild PTT for postoperative skin cancer treatment while circumventing photothermo-induced inflammation by loading quercetin (Que)-coated tannin‑iron (TA-Fe) nanoparticles with poly (N-acrylylglycine) amine (PNAGA) hydrogel (Que@TA-Fe@PNAGA). Exposure to near-infrared light, Que.

Vascular malformations are common vascular lesions in infants and seriously affect their health and quality of life. Vascular sclerotherapy is an effective treatment for vascular malformations. However, current sclerosants have difficulty achieving both high efficiency and low toxicity, and their dosing forms make it difficult to achieve long-term retention in the affected blood vessels.
