Plant polyphenol-based hydrogels, known for their biocompatibility and adhesive properties, have emerged as promising materials in biomedical applications. These hydrogels leverage the catechol group's ability to form stable bonds moist environments, similar mussel proteins. This review provides a comprehensive overview of synthesis, adhesion mechanisms, applications, particularly wound healing, tissue regeneration, drug delivery. However, challenges related vivo stability long-term remain critical barriers clinical translation. Future research should focus on enhancing bioactivity, biocompatibility, scalability these while addressing concerns toxicity, immune responses, large-scale manufacturing. Advances artificial intelligence-assisted screening 3D/4D bioprinting are expected accelerate development Furthermore, integration biomimetic designs responsive functionalities, such pH or temperature sensitivity, holds promise further improving therapeutic efficacy. In conclusion, multifunctional plant represents frontier advancing personalized medicine minimally invasive treatments.
