Abstract Nerve guidance conduits have demonstrated great promise for the restoration of injured peripheral nerves in recent decades. Associated research has focused on improving structure and function these as well simplifying manufacturing processes. Herein, a novel decellularized umbilical cord (DUC) wrapped with conductive hydrogel is presented nerve regeneration, which prepared by integrating DUC matrix into methacrylate gelatin (GelMA)/Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene (MXene) composite hollow conduit (named DUC–MXene–GelMA conduit). The obtained displays superior mechanical properties, electrical conductivity, biocompatibility. Particularly, ascribed to introduction MXene, exhibits satisfactory biological effects promoting neuron growth Schwann cell proliferation migration. Through vivo experiments using rat sciatic injury model, beneficial axonal regeneration motor recovery are demonstrated. These findings indicate that may be promising candidate repair.

Chronic wounds present a substantial healthcare obstacle, marked by an extended healing period that can persist for weeks, months, or even years. Typically, they do not progress through the usual phases of healing, which include hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, within expected timeframe. Therefore, to address socioeconomic burden in taking care chronic wounds, hydrogel-based therapeutic materials have been proposed. Hydrogels are hydrophilic polymer networks with 3D structure allows them become skin substitutes wounds. Knowing peptides abundant human body possess distinct biological functionality, activity, selectivity, their adaptability as peptide-based hydrogels individual requirements has made significant potential biomaterial treatment Peptide-based excellent physicochemical mechanical characteristics such biodegradability swelling, suitable rheological properties well great biocompatibility. Moreover, interact cells, promoting adhesion, migration, proliferation. These cellular interactions driven be applied wound healing.

Novel hyaluronic acid (HA) crosslinked with pentaerythritol tetra-acrylate (PT) injectable hydrogels was invented. These hydrogel/dermal filler formulations were synthesised using HA and the acrylate PT as a crosslinker under basic pH conditions thermal crosslinking methods (oven heating), which provides simple, safe, eco-friendly method for in 4 h 45 °C. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses conducted to represent difference between terms of peak formation pore size, respectively. The partial is considered be typical dermal fillers. rheological properties these showed that novel injectables are highly promising, newly developed fillers could used better results anti-wrinkle corrections, shaping, volumising reasons. Furthermore, residual analysis carried out state valid acceptable intradermal usage. from GC validation revealed it suitable this study. all five hydrogel/filler demonstrated HA-PT 1, 2, 3 formulated (0.05–0.1)% w/w containing monomers within safe limits determined below (0.008% w/w). This work has shown development formulation pharmaceutical cosmetic applications can prepared more sustainable simple way agent, holds great promise industry’s future advancement.
