Cardiovascular diseases, particularly myocardial infarction (MI), are the leading cause of death worldwide and a major contributor to disability. Cardiac tissue engineering is promising approach for preventing functional damage or improving cardiac function after MI. We aimed introduce novel electroactive patch based on reduced graphene oxide-coated alginate scaffolds due behavior biomaterials regulate cell proliferation, biocompatibility, signal transition.The fabrication patches (ALG) coated with different concentrations oxide (rGO) using sodium hydrosulfite described here. The prepared were thoroughly tested their physicochemical properties cytocompatibility. ALG-rGO also antimicrobial antioxidant properties. Subcutaneous implantation in mice was used evaluate scaffolds' ability induce angiogenesis.The Young modulus increased by increasing rGO concentration from 92 ± 4.51 kPa ALG 431 4.89 ALG-rGO-4 (ALG 0.3% w/v rGO). tensile strength trended similarly. electrical conductivity calculated semi-conductive range (~ 10-4 S/m). Furthermore, when compared scaffolds, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cultured demonstrated improved viability adhesion. Upregulation VEGFR2 expression at both mRNA protein levels confirmed that coating significantly boosted angiogenic capability against HUVECs. OD620 assay FE-SEM observation antibacterial Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes. showed samples possessed activity 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging UV-vis spectroscopy. Histological evaluations enhanced vascularization subcutaneous implantation.Our findings suggest scaffold accelerating repair damaged heart tissue.

Every 1.2 s, a diabetic foot ulcer is developed, and every 20 one amputation carried out in patients. Monitoring controlling protease activity have been considered as strategy for more efficient management of other chronic wounds. This study aimed to develop casein-based dressing that, by its disappearance, provides information about the proteases simultaneously harnesses proteolytic activity. Casein films were fabricated using an aqueous solution, heat treatment was successfully deployed green clean approach confer hydrolytic stability. Our results showed that films' mechanical characteristics, water absorption, stability could be controlled length treatment, which proved useful tool. An increase duration from 30 min 3 h led toleration 2.4 times higher stress, 2 lower uptake, 3.4 at examined conditions.

Abstract With the aging and obesity era, increasing incidence of diabetes diabetic complications, especially non‐healing wounds, imposes a serious economic burden on both patients society. The complex microenvironments, including hyperglycemia, bacterial infection, ischemia, nerve damage, lead to prolonged inflammation proliferation phase wounds. Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived small extracellular vesicles (MSC‐sEVs), which contain rich variety therapeutic molecules, have been chased for decades because their potential roles in cellular communication, tissue regeneration, drug delivery. As powerful tools controlled‐sustained release sEVs, biocompatible hydrogels applied wide range biomedical applications. Herein, we first summarize pathological features such as angiopathy, neuropathy, immune cell dysfunction. Then, discuss biological properties, performance, stability pure MSC‐sEVs. After that, components, application patterns, responsiveness hydrogels. Next, loading avenues MSC‐sEVs into hydrogel, behaviors sEVs from hydrogels, influence crosslinking method hydrogel‐sEV composites. Finally, provide an overview current applications loaded with novel cell‐free engineering system managing wounds propose critical unsolved issues. This review is expected meaningful guidance developing wound management.
