In recent years, the incidence of chronic pancreatitis has increased significantly. Pancreatic calculi obstruct the pancreatic duct and induce abdominal pain in the patients. Pancreatic duct stenting is the major treatment option for chronic pancreatitis with calculi. In this study, a new kind of drug-eluting stent, a pancreatic stent coated by methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) hydrogel loaded with citric acid (CA), was designed for the interventional treatment of pancreatic duct calculi. The CA loading capacity reached up to 0.7 g CA/g hydrogel-coated stent. The GelMA hydrogel coating has higher mechanical strength and lower swelling performance after loading with CA. The in vitro experiments of stents exhibited good performance in CA sustained release and the calculi can be dissolved in almost 3 days. The stents also showed good blood compatibility and cell compatibility. This research has important clinical value in the treatment of chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic calculi.

In recent years, multifunctional hydrogel nanoplatforms for the synergistic treatment of tumors have received a great deal of attention. Here, we prepared an iron/zirconium/polydopamine/carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel with Fenton and photothermal effects, promising for future use in the field of synergistic therapy and prevention of tumor recurrence. The iron (Fe)–zirconium (Zr)@ polydopamine (PDA) nanoparticles were synthesized by a simple one-pot hydrothermal method using iron (III) chloride hexahydrate (FeCl
3 •6H2 O), zirconium tetrachloride (ZrCl4 ), and dopamine, followed by activation of the carboxyl group of carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) using 1-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/N(4)-hydroxycytidine (NHS). Finally, the Fe–Zr@PDA nanoparticles and the activated CMCS were mixed to form a hydrogel. On the one side, Fe ions can use hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) which is rich in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to produce toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and kill tumor cells, and Zr can also enhance the Fenton effect; on the other side, the excellent photothermal conversion efficiency of the incorporated PDA is used to kill tumor cells under the irradiation of near-infrared light. The ability of Fe–Zr@PDA@CMCS hydrogel to produce •OH and the ability of photothermal conversion were verified in vitro, and swelling and degradation experiments confirmed the effective release and good degradation of this hydrogel in an acidic environment. The multifunctional hydrogel is biologically safe at both cellular and animal levels. Therefore, this hydrogel has a wide range of applications in the synergistic treatment of tumors and the prevention of recurrence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

We designed an injectable hydrogel by dissolving MoS 2 /Bi 2 S 3 -PEG (MBP), doxorubicin (DOX) and agar into water for the concurrent tumor photothermal and chemotherapy. The formed solution was able to be intra-tumorally (I.T.) administered into tumor at a relatively high temperature and automatically formed a hydrogel after cooling to body temperature. The resultant Agar/MBP/DOX (AMD) hydrogel can act as a macro-vessel to retain the MBP nanosheet and DOX and restrict their access to body fluid circulation. Moreover, AMD hydrogel did not compromise the photoacoustic and computed tomography imaging capacity, as well as the photothermal and chemotherapy efficiency of MBP nanosheets and DOX. The heat from the photothermal transformation of MBP nanosheet can promote the drug-release from the hydrogel and thus enable an on-demand drug release. Furthermore, antibiotics were also able to be encapsulated in the hydrogel to avoid the potential wound infection during tumor surgery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• A simple method to synthesize MoS 2 and GOx-containing sodium alginate hydrogel. • The hydrogel consumes the glucose to lead to tumor starvation therapy. • The MAF hydrogel has a good photothermal conversion. • The generated Fe2+ induces a Fenton reaction for chemodynamic therapy of tumors. Starvation therapy (ST) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) are emerging tumor therapy methods in recent years. In this study, a simple approach was reported to prepare MoS 2 and glucose oxidase (GOx)-containing sodium alginate (ALG)-Fe3+ (MAF) hydrogel. In the hydrogel, there exists an enzymatic reaction to consume glucose to form hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2), and a redox reaction between Fe3+ and MoS 2 to form Fe2+ and MoO 4 2−. The formed Fe2+ could be oxidized to Fe3+, which reacts with MAF hydrogel again to continuously produce Fe2+. The consumption of glucose resulted in an obvious tumor ST. Moreover, the produced Fe2+ induced a Fenton reaction to enable the persistent conversion of H 2 O 2 to cytotoxic hydroxyl radicals (·OH) for the CDT of tumors. Together with the high photothermal transforming capability of MoS 2 , the hydrogel was used for the combined tumor photothermal therapy (PTT), ST, and CDT. This work provides a window for the safe use of enzymes for achieving high tumor therapeutic efficacy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, a methacrylic gelatin/oxidized dextran/montmorillonite‑strontium/polypyrrole (GOMP) hydrogel was prepared. The GOMP hydrogel had dual network structure which was formed through photoinitiator-initiated double bond polymerization and Schiff base reaction. The network structure led to a sustained release of the antitumor drug, doxorubicin (DOX). Polypyrrole introduced the conductivity and high photothermal conversion capacity to the GOMP hydrogel, which showed a photothermal conversion efficiency of 31.61 % under 808 nm laser radiation. The GOMP hydrogel had good swelling properties in solvents. Further study showed that the GOMP hydrogel had good biocompatibility and excellent biodegradability in vitro and in vivo. The experiments of in vitro tumor therapy and in vivo anti-tumor recurrence indicated that the DOX-loaded GOMP hydrogel had synergistic effects on tumor cell apoptosis based on chemotherapy and photothermal therapy. In addition, montmorillonite‑strontium (MMT-Sr) doped in the hydrogel not only improved the mechanical properties of the hydrogel but also promoted potential bone regeneration. The multifunctional DOX-loaded GOMP hydrogel with bone regeneration, photothermal therapy, and chemotherapy functions has great potential application for treating osteosarcoma. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Massive bleeding is a great threat to the life safety of patients, which is a challenging clinical problem. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a kind of multifunctional dressing material with hemostatic ability and antibacterial performance to promote wound healing and repair. To resolve this issue, in this study, a carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS)/sodium alginate (SA)/oxidized dextran (ODE) (CSO) multifunctional hydrogel was developed. The hydrogel could rapidly gel through Schiff base reaction and amide reaction and firmly adhere to the skin at the wound, to realize the fast hemostasis. Importantly, it was verified that the hydrogel could prevent the Staphylococcus aureus -caused wound infection, owing to the antibacterial effect of CMCS and ODE. In addition, the CSO hydrogel had good water retention capacity and was able to mimic the three-dimensional structure of the natural extracellular matrix, thereby promoting wound repair in mice. In vitro whole-blood clotting assay demonstrated that red blood cells could be adhered to the surface of hydrogel, showing good hemostasis in rat liver injury and tail amputation models. Together with the biocompatible feature, CSO hydrogel holds a great application prospect in hemostasis and wound healing. • Carboxymethyl chitosan/sodium alginate/oxidized dextran hydrogel was prepared. • The hydrogel had excellent adhesion, mechanical properties and biodegradability. • The hydrogel could firmly adhere to the skin at the wound. • The hydrogel reduced the blood loss on rat liver injury and tail bleeding models.

Hydrogels have been widely used as wound dressings to accelerate wound healing. However, due to the impaired skin barrier at the wound site, external bacteria can easily invade the wound and cause infection. In this study, we designed a dopamine-modified sodium alginate/carboxymethyl chitosan/polyvinylpyrrolidone (CPD) hydrogel, which was able to promote wound healing while preventing wound infection. Due to the high content of catechol groups, the CPD hydrogel exhibited good tissue adhesion ability and a significant scavenging ability for DPPH• and PTIO• radicals. Under near-infrared laser irradiation, the temperature of CPD hydrogel increased significantly, which significantly killed the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The cell migration test confirmed that CPD hydrogel could promote the cell migration ratio. In the in vivo wound healing test for infected full-thickness skin defect, CPD hydrogel significantly inhibited bacterial proliferation and enhanced wound healing rate. Therefore, the multifunctional hydrogel is expected to be applied to wound healing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

• Chitosan-based composite hydrogel was designed for the synergistic photothermal- and chemotherapy of colon cancer. • The temperature-sensitive hydrogel could release drug in an on-demand manner. • Localized therapy with no harm to normal tissues and organs was achieved. • The chitosan-based hydrogel had antibacterial effects. The purpose of this study was to design an injectable hydrogel with temperature-sensitive property for safe and high efficient in vivo colon cancer hyperthermia and chemotherapy. Chitosan (CS) solution was injected into the tumor at room temperature and automatically gelled after warming to body temperature in the present of β-glycerophosphate (β-GP). Combined localized tumor photothermal and chemotherapy were achieved by dissolving photothermal material MoS 2 /Bi 2 S 3 -PEG (MBP) nanosheets and drug molecule doxorubicin (DOX) into the hydrogel, and the gel system could encapsulate DOX and MBP nanosheets and prevent them from entering the blood circulation and damaging normal tissues and cells. More importantly, the CS/MBP/DOX (CMD) hydrogel exhibited a photothermal efficiency of 22.18% and 31.42% in the first and second near infrared light (NIR I and NIR II) biowindows respectively at a low MBP concentration (0.5 mg/mL). Besides, the release of the DOX from CMD hydrogel was controllable since the gel temperature could be governed by NIR laser irradiation. Moreover, the chitosan-based hydrogel had antibacterial effects. The designed composite hydrogel is anticipated to act as a platform for the high efficient treatment of tumors owing to the different penetration depths of NIR I and NIR II. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this study, a composite hydrogel (QMPD hydrogel) composed of methacrylate anhydride (MA) grafted quaternary ammonium chitosan (QCS-MA), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and dopamine (DA) was designed for the sequential wound inflammation elimination, infection inhibition, and wound healing. The QMPD hydrogel formation was initiated by the ultraviolet light-triggered polymerization of QCS-MA. Furthermore, hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions, and "π-π" stacking between QCS-MA, PVP, and DA were involved in the hydrogel formation. In this hydrogel, the quaternary ammonium groups of quaternary ammonium chitosan and the photothermal conversion of polydopamine are capable of killing bacteria on wounds, which showed the bacteriostatic ratios of 85.6 % and 92.5 % toward Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus , respectively. Moreover, the oxidation of DA sufficiently scavenged free radicals and introduced the QMPD hydrogel with good anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory abilities. Together with the extracellular matrix-mimic tropical structure, the QMPD hydrogel significantly promoted the wound management of mice. Therefore, the QMPD hydrogel is expected to provide a new method for the design of wound healing dressings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Recently, the healing of chronic wounds such as extensive burns has become a serious and intractable clinical problem. Avoiding wound infection and retaining an appropriate level of moisture around wounds are significant challenges in wound care. Herein, a dual-network hydrogel composed of sodium alginate (SA) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was designed to facilitate the wound healing. The preparation of hydrogel was achieved through a simple one-step thrombin activation process. The morphological characterization results revealed the three-dimensional network structure of the hydrogel. Then, certain levels of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) cultured hydrogel, which led to the possibility of cell proliferation and vascular regeneration. When topically applied to the wound skin of rats, the hydrogel presented high wound closure effectiveness. In conclusion, this strategy provides a simple and feasible approach to overcoming the shortcomings of conventional wound dressings. [Display omitted] • A dual-network hydrogel composed of sodium alginate and platelet-rich plasma. • The hydrogel releases epidermal growth and vascular endothelial growth factors. • The hydrogel presents high wound closure and wound healing effectiveness.

[Display omitted] • A biodegradable dopamine-modified sodium carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogel. • Sodium periodate was used to oxidize the CMC-DA for the hydrogel formation. • The formed NaI enables the CT imaging to monitor the degradation. • Ce6 was loaded by the hydrogel via soaking the hydrogel in the Ce6 solution. • Ce6 produced ROS and PDA produced heat for the combined tumor therapy. In this research, a hydrogel that combined the tumor photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) ability was designed, using dopamine-modified sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-DA) as the matrix and Chlorin e6 (Ce6) as the photosensitizer. The gel formation was initiated by adding the oxidizing agent sodium periodate (NaIO 4) to the CMC-DA solution, during which the dopamine was simultaneously oxidized to polydopamine (PDA) and NaIO 4 was reduced to sodium iodide (NaI). The formed NaI was encapsulated in the hydrogel and endowed the hydrogel with computerized tomography (CT) imaging ability to monitor the hydrogel degradation and the tumor therapy process. Moreover, the photosensitizer Ce6 can be loaded by the gel system via directly soaking the hydrogel in the Ce6 solution. Under the near-infrared light irradiation, Ce6 can produce cytotoxic reactive oxygen species and the PDA can produce heat to trigger the tumor PDT and PTT respectively to eradicate the tumor recurrence. In general, the designed hydrogel is biocompatible and biodegradable, has a good photothermal conversion, drug loading and CT imaging ability, which laid the foundation for the rational design of biodegradable hydrogels for multifunctional applications.

An in-situ formed hemostatic hydrogel (GelMA/OD/Borax) was prepared for the emergency wound hemostasis and anti-inflammation applications. Gelatin was chosen as the backbone and modified with methacrylic anhydride (MA) to synthesize GelMA, which showed the admirable UV light activatable polymerizing ability. Aldehyde groups, which cross-linked with the -NH 2 on the tissue surface and afforded the tissue adhesion, were produced by oxidizing the o-hydroxyl groups of dextran. Further, the sodium tetraborate formed dynamic boric acid ester bonds with the oxidized dextran (OD). With this triple-network structure, the as-prepared hydrogel presented excellent hemostatic capacity and surmounted a high blood pressure of 165 mmHg, which is higher than the threshold systolic blood pressure of healthy adults (i.e., 120 mmHg). The mechanical property, morphology, biocompatibility and degradation of the hydrogel were character Borax, the hydrogel successfully blocked the bleeding and accelerated the wound healing. This research provides a new modality for the design of a multifunctional hemostatic hydrogel for effective hemostasis and wound healing. • GelMA/OD/Borax hydrogel is reported for the wound hemostasis and anti-inflammation. • The hemostatic hydrogel can surmount a high blood pressure of 165 mmHg. • The hydrogel is biocompatible, degradable, and has a good antibacterial capacity. • The hydrogel can accelerate the wound healing.
