Granular hydrogels have emerged as a new class of materials for 3D printing, tissue engineering, and food applications due to their extrudability, porosity, modularity. This work introduces convenient method prepare granular hydrogel with tunable properties by modulating the interaction between gum Arabic (GA) whey protein isolate (WPI) microgels. As concentration GA increased, appearance changed from fluid liquid moldable solid, microstructure macro-porous structure thin walls dense formed accumulation spherical particles. At 0.5 %, remained fluid. containing 1.0 % showed mechanical similar those tofu (compressive strength: 10.8 ± kPa, Young's modulus: 16.7 0.4 kPa), while 1.5 hawthorn sticks sausages 300.4 5.8 kPa; 200.5 3.4 kPa). The 2.0 was sticks, satisfactory bite resistance elasticity. Such tunability has led various application potentials in industry meet consumer demand healthy, nutritious, diverse textures.

Abstract Advancing the integration of nonliving and living components relies heavily on functional hydrogel materials with biocompatibility customizability. In this study, an enzyme‐assisted surface activation method is developed to produce reactive microparticles (HMPs) comprising thiolated hyaluronic acid hyperbranched poly(β‐hydrazide esters). Fluorescence labeling analysis reveals over six‐fold increase in surface‐active group density hydrogels three‐fold HMPs after enzyme activation. This enhancement improves accessibility active elements, facilitating post‐functionalization optimizing their capacity support initial cell adhesion spreading as carriers for cultures. Additionally, by utilizing exposed double bonds HMP surfaces post‐enzymatic treatment, are produced through a thiol‐ene coupling reaction polymers. These bond together spontaneously, resulting formation annealed granular interconnected large‐pore networks tunable storage modulus (G’) from tens hundreds pascals, compatible most soft tissues. Integrated 3D bioprinting, ink generates prints that foster adhesion, migration, growth, network formation. Moving forward, integrating various scaffold systems technique holds significant promise enhancing performance expanding applications regenerative medicine innovative materials.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) stores signaling molecules and facilitates mechanical biochemical in cells. However, the influence of biomimetic "rejuvenation" ECM structures on aging- degeneration-related cellular activities tissue repair is not well understood. We combined physical extrusion precise "on–off" alternating cross-linking methods to create anisotropic biomaterial microgels (MicroRod MicroSphere) explored how they regulate cell nucleus pulposus (NP) their potential antidegenerative effects intervertebral discs. NP cells exhibited aligned growth along surface MicroRod, enhanced proliferation, reduced apoptosis. This suggests an adaptive response involving adhesion mechanosensing, which causes cytoskeletal extension via environmental cues. maintain nuclear membrane integrity through YAP/TAZ pathway, activates cGAS-STING pathway rectify aging mechanisms. In vivo, MicroRod carries reduces inflammatory factor protease secretion degenerated discs, inhibiting degeneration promoting regeneration. Our findings highlight role stress maintaining activity antiaging harsh environments, providing a foundation for further research development biomaterials.

While granular hydrogels are increasingly used in biomedical applications, methods to capture their rheological behavior generally consider shear-thinning and self-healing properties or produce ensemble metrics such as the dynamic moduli. Analytical approaches paired with common oscillatory shear tests can describe not only solid-like fluid-like of but also transient characteristics inherent yielding unyielding processes. Combining testing consideration Brittility (Bt) via Kamani-Donley-Rogers (KDR) model, we show behave brittle yield stress fluids complex rheology. We quantify steady rheology a function microgel (composition; diameter) (packing; droplet heterogeneity) assembly for mixtures polyethylene glycol gelatin microgels. The KDR model Bt captures hydrogel wide range design parameters, reducing determination parameters. impact composition on parameters monolithic mixed hydrogels. robustly reveals relaxation time depends strain amplitude.
