Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a collective term for nanoscale or microscale secreted by cells that play important biological roles. Mesenchymal stem class of with the potential self-healing and multidirectional differentiation. In recent years, numerous studies have shown EVs, especially those mesenchymal cells, can promote repair regeneration various tissues and, thus, significant in regenerative medicine. However, due to rapid clearance capacity circulatory system, EVs barely able act persistently at specific sites target tissues. Hydrogels good biocompatibility loose porous structural properties allow them serve as EV carriers, thereby prolonging retention certain areas slowing release EVs. When needed function sites, EV-loaded hydrogels stand an excellent approach. this review, we first introduce sources, roles, extraction characterization methods describe their current application status.

Electroconductive hydrogels are very attractive candidates for accelerated spinal cord injury (SCI) repair because they match the electrical and mechanical properties of neural tissue. However, electroconductive hydrogel implantation can potentially aggravate inflammation, hinder its efficacy. Bone marrow stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-exosomes) have shown immunomodulatory tissue regeneration effects, therefore, tissue-like loaded with BMSC-exosomes developed synergistic treatment SCI. These exosomes-loaded modulate microglial M2 polarization via NF-κB pathway, synergistically enhance neuronal oligodendrocyte differentiation cells (NSCs) while inhibiting astrocyte differentiation, also increase axon outgrowth PTEN/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Furthermore, combined significantly decrease number CD68-positive microglia, local NSCs recruitment, promote axonal regeneration, resulting in significant functional recovery at early stage an SCI mouse model. Hence, findings this study demonstrate that combination is a promising therapeutic strategy repair.

Abstract Bioadhesives have been used in clinics among the most prospective alternatives to sutures and staples for wound sealing repairing; however, they generally inadequate adhesion wet surfaces, improper mechanical strength, poor hemostasis, cytotoxicity. To address these challenges, a robust tissue adhesive based on collagen starch materials (CoSt) is designed this study. CoSt hydrogels integrate feature of drainage, molecular penetration strengthen cross‐linking similar mussel, ivy, oyster glues, which remove interfacial water quickly, reinforce tough dissipation involve multiple reversible dynamic interactions. Therefore, form strong sutureless injured tissues, accompanying actuate biointerfaces direct contact with liquids or blood, resolving crucial impediments commercially accessible adhesives. The novel bioadhesive shows repeatable adhesiveness (62 ± 4.8 KPa), high performance (153.2 35.1 mmHg), fast self‐healing ability, excellent injectability, shape adaptability. For different hemostatic needs rat models tail amputation, skin incision, severe liver, abdominal aorta, transected nerve injuries, hydrogel better efficiency than fibrin glue because coordinate efficacy property, outstanding red blood cell arresting capability, activation barrier membrane. Moreover, vivo investigation injury repair model validate that accelerate healing functional recovery via damage/defects. Tough adhesion, quick distinguished biocompatibility, suitability match irregular‐shaped target sites, good promotion makes it various biomedical applications.

Exosomes (EXs) shed by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are potent therapeutic agents that promote wound healing and regeneration, but when used alone in vivo, their potency is diminished rapid clearance bioactivity loss. Inspired the biotin-avidin interaction, we developed a simple yet versatile method for immobilization of MSC-derived EXs (MSC-EXs) into hydrogels achieved sustained release regenerative purposes. First, biotin-modified gelatin methacryloyl (Bio-GelMA) was fabricated grafting NHS-PEG12-biotin onto amino groups GelMA. Biotin-modified MSC-EXs (Bio-EXs) were then synthesized using an situ self-assembling biotinylation strategy, which provided sufficient binding sites MSC-EX delivery with little effect on cargo composition. Thereafter, Bio-EXs immobilized Bio-GelMA via streptavidin to generate Bio-GelMA@Bio-EX hydrogels. An vitro analysis demonstrated could be taken up macrophages exerted immunomodulatory effects similar those MSC-EXs, 7 days. After subcutaneous transplantation, more constant retention observed 28 When placed artificial periodontal multitissue defect, functionalized exhibited optimized performance regrow complex tissues, including acellular cementum, ligaments (PDLs), alveolar bone.
