Abstract Tissue development is mediated by a combination of mechanical and biological signals. Currently, there are many reports on signals regulating repair. However, insufficient attention paid to the process regulation, especially active regulation in vivo, which has not been realized. Herein, novel dynamically regulated repair system for both vitro vivo applications developed, utilizes magnetic nanoparticles as non‐contact actuators activate hydrogels. The hydrogel can be periodically activated deformed different amplitudes dynamic system. An skin model used explore impact stimuli cellular mechano‐transduction signal activation cell differentiation. Specifically, effect stimulation phenotypic transition fibroblasts myofibroblasts investigated. Furthermore, results verify that massage simulate enhance traction defects, thereby accelerating wound healing promoting re‐epithelialization mediating dermal contraction.

Many fields would greatly benefit from the realization of manipulation droplet impact behavior by an asymmetric surface structure, such as self-cleaning, anti-icing, inkjet printing, etc. However, research on prediction dynamics small-volume droplets superhydrophobic has been insufficient. In this study, a curved micropillar array with controllable bending angles induced magnetic field was prepared. The and rebound behaviors nanoliter diameters 100-300 μm were investigated. experimental results showed positive correlation between threshold Weber number morphology transition inclination angle micropillar. addition, restitution coefficient, which measures degree energy loss during process, nonmonotonic dependence number. A critical velocity model coefficient in different morphologies are suggested. Our findings will help design functional for manipulating droplet.
