Sutures penetrate tissues to close wounds. This process leads to inflammatory responses, prolongs healing time, and increase operation complexity...

Hydrogels have wide applications in tissue engineering and bioelectronics. In spite of widespread applications of functional hydrogels with superior conductive or magnetic responsive performances, there are still some limitations caused by insufficient flexibility, resilience and responsive sensitivity in some fields, such as highly flexible electronics, organic pressure sensitive sensors, and responsive actuators...

Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 BMP bioimplants can be used to promote bone repair and fusion. Adverse effects reported with the use of BMP are attributed the use of an acellular collagen sponge ACS as the carrier for the BMP...

Three-dimensional 3D bioprinting of photocrosslinkable hydrogels has attracted great interest for various tissue engineering applications as the biochemical and mechanical properties of the resulting hydrogel structures can be tuned to generate a physiologically relevant microenvironment for cells...

Breast cancer metastasis to bone is associated with poor patient prognosis as current non-specific therapeutics are administered systemically with deleterious side effects...
