Direct regeneration is an effective strategy of spent lithium iron phosphate (S-LFP), with the principal aspect being the selection of the lithium source and reductant. Here, assisted with a thermodynamically favourable reaction involving a bifunctional organic lithium salt (lithium citrate), the single-step regeneration of S-LFP is successfully achieved. The structure and composition of the regenerated LFP are significantly restored, demonstrating excellent electrochemical performance (142.7 mA h g) with no degradation after 200 cycles.

This review explores the recent advancements and ongoing challenges in regenerating alveolar bone, which is essential for dental implants and periodontal health. It examines traditional techniques like guided bone regeneration and bone grafting, alongside newer methods such as stem cell therapy, gene therapy, and 3D bioprinting. Each approach is considered for its strengths in supporting bone growth and integration, especially in cases where complex bone defects make regeneration difficult.

Salivary gland stem/progenitor cells (SSPCs) hold significant potential for regenerative medicine, especially for patients suffering from salivary gland dysfunction due to various causes such as radiation therapy, Sjögren's syndrome, and aging. This review provides a comprehensive overview of SSPCs, including their characteristics, isolation, culture techniques, differentiation pathways, and their role in tissue regeneration. Additionally, we highlight recent advances in cell- and tissue-based therapies, such as SSPC transplantation and bioengineered organ replacements.

Tissue development and regeneration rely on the deployment of embryonic signals to drive progenitor activity and thus generate complex cell diversity and organization. One such signal is Sonic Hedgehog (Shh), which establishes the dorsal-ventral (D/V) axis of the spinal cord during embryogenesis. However, the existence of this D/V axis and its dependence on Shh signaling during regeneration varies by species.

The development of wet adhesives capable of bonding in aqueous environments, particularly for hard tissues such as bone, tooth, and cartilage, remains a significant challenge in material chemistry and biomedical research. Currently available hard tissue adhesives in clinical practice lack well-defined wet adhesion properties. Nature offers valuable inspiration through the adhesive mechanisms of marine organisms, advancing the design of bioinspired wet adhesives.
