In this study, we applied a systematic approach to establish an iterative workflow and to drive the chemical design of thermosensitive, in situ forming injectables as a function of the intended target product profile. Self-assembly, mechanical properties, physical state, and thermal transition behavior were assessed via nuclear magnetic resonance, oscillatory rheology, turbidimetry and visual inspection techniques. Thus, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s (PAOx)s with LCSTs below body temperature were studied before and after grafting them onto azido-substituted hyaluronic acid (HA) via strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC). Ultimately, we identified critical material attributes able to guide the pharmaceutical development of in situ gelling thermosensitive polymers.

This study synthesizes a novel three-dimensional (3D) porous coordination polymer (CP), {[Co(L)₀.₅(H₂O)]·NMP·H₂O} (1), via a solvothermal method in a mixed solvent of water and NMP (1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone), reacting Co(II) ions with H₄L (1,4-bis(5,6-carboxybenzimidazolylmethyl)benzene). The CP exhibits unique fluorescence properties, emitting at 420 nm under UV light excitation at 350 nm, and serves as a carrier for Mesalazine (MSZ) in therapeutic applications.

A Fish-Gill-Inspired Biomimetic Multiscale-Ordered Hydrogel-Based Solar Water Evaporator for Highly Efficient Salt-Rejecting Seawater Desalination.

ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of High Performance Ceramics and Superfine Microstructure, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shanghai 200050, China.

Solar energy-driven steam generation is a renewable, energy-efficient technology that can alleviate the global clean water shortage through seawater desalination. However, the contradiction between resistance to salinity accretion and maintaining high water evaporation properties remains a challenging bottleneck. Herein, we have developed a biomimetic multiscale-ordered hydrogel-based solar water evaporator for efficient seawater desalination.

Adhesive and Conductive Fibrous Hydrogel Bandages for Effective Peripheral Nerve Regeneration.

Adv Healthc Mater

January 2025

Department of Intelligent Precision Healthcare Convergence, Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU), Suwon, 16419, Republic of Korea.

Peripheral nerve injury is a common disease resulting in reversible and irreversible impairments of motor and sensory functions. In addition to conventional surgical interventions such as nerve grafting and neurorrhaphy, nerve guidance conduits are used to effectively support axonal growth without unexpected neuroma formation. However, there are still challenges to secure tissue-mimetic mechanical and electrophysiological properties of the conduit materials.

Background: Intradermal injection of CPM-HA20G, a low-viscoelasticity hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal filler with glycerol, has been shown to be effective for facial rejuvenation in Caucasians, but research in Asians is limited.

Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of CPM-HA20G in enhancing facial skin quality in Korean women using a protocol developed by local aesthetic experts.

Patients/methods: In this 24-week prospective, single-arm, open-label study, 20 women received CPM-HA20G injections in the immediate subdermal layer on the anterior cheek (1 mL per side; total 2 mL) in three sessions every 4 weeks.
