Article Abstract

is high in polysaccharides, which have a structure made up of a straight chain of (1→3) α-D-mannan and side chains of glucuronic acid, xylose, and fucose. This study aimed to evaluate whether the non-animal hyaluronic acid extracted from can maintain the chemical and physical characteristics of hyaluronic acid that ensure its biological functionality. Chemical and physical analyses such as hyaluronic content, screening of metals, purity, pH, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR/FTIR), and MALDI-TOF were performed. Chemical characterisation revealed that the most abundant polysaccharide in the extract was hyaluronic acid, accounting for ca. 87.76%, with a molecular weight above 2000 kDa. In addition, ATR/FTIR and NMR spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF analysis confirmed that extract is a source of non-animal hyaluronic acid. In summary, every molecular attribute examined played a significant role in determining the functional qualities of the extract, indicating that a thoughtful choice of extraction technique can enhance its advantages.

Bacterial infection in the injured skin may threaten the wound repair and skin regeneration owing to aggravated inflammation. The multifunctional dressings with persistent antibacterial activity and improved anti-inflammatory capability are urgently required. Herein, a type of heterogeneous zinc/catechol-derived resin microspheres (Zn/CFRs) composed of zinc ions (Zn) and zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles was developed to impart the methacrylamide chitosan (CSMA)-oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA) hydrogel with a persistent Zn release behavior.

Modified hyaluronic acid (HA) biomaterials have received considerable attention in recent years, especially in developing innovative therapeutic strategies for targeted disease interventions. HA serves to shield therapeutics from the physiological environment, while enabling safe delivery and promoting uptake into specific cells. As a hydrophilic chain polymer, HA is readily chemically modified into functional biomaterials for drug delivery and cancer immunotherapy.

Extensive peripheral nerve injuries often lead to the loss of neurological function due to slow regeneration and limited recovery over large gaps. Current clinical interventions, such as nerve guidance conduits (NGCs), face challenges in creating biomimetic microenvironments that effectively support nerve repair. The developed GrooveNeuroTube is composed of hyaluronic acid methacrylate and gelatin methacrylate hydrogel, incorporating active agents (growth factors and antibacterial agents) encapsulated within an NGC conduit made of 3D-printed PCL grid fibers.

In this study, we develop a hyaluronic-tannic acid (HA-TA) hydrogel loaded with Cu nanoparticles attach to MXene (MXene@Cu) to explore its potential as a targeted breast cancer treatment. The MXene@Cu nanosheets exhibit activity in depleting glutathione (GSH) and inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) through the Fenton-like reaction. They can down-regulate the activity of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), leading to the accumulation of lipid peroxides (LPO) and inducing ferroptosis in tumor cells.

High-performance hydrogel biomaterials hold considerable promise for advanced wound care. However, the suboptimal mechanical properties of conventional hydrogel materials limit their practical application. In this study, Hyaluronic acid sodium salt (HA), xanthan gum (XG), and N-acryloyl-glycinamide (NAGA) hydrogels with porous structures were successfully fabricated using in-situ extrusion 3D printing technology, and a functionalization strategy involving tea polyphenol (TP) immersion was proposed to enhance material properties through additional hydrogen bonding.
