Due to the complex pathological characteristics and poor healing properties of tissue injury, current methods are unable to integrate diagnosis, treatment, and repair effectively. To address this challenge, the team is the first to combine PLLA microspheres with self-powered technology, designing and fabricating self-powered enzyme-linked PLLA microspheres, which are composed of an anode and cathode dual-array. These microspheres load glycerol oxidase (Pd@Pt NPs) and horseradish peroxidase (AuAg-Fe MOF), with the latter exhibiting a hydrogen peroxide enzyme activity (K/K) of 1.75 × 10 Ms, which is 1900 times higher than that of HRP. The enzyme cascade within the PLLA microspheres effectively detects and inhibits bacterial infection in injured tissue, enabling quantitative bacterial detection as low as 4 CFU/mL and achieving over 95% antibacterial efficiency. It also suppresses inflammatory infection and generates a stable microcurrent, with biological currents as high as 4.0 µA, promoting rapid tissue healing and repair. Consequently, tissue wounds treated with enzyme-linked PLLA microspheres demonstrate preventive, rapid, and efficient healing, attributed to the synergistic effects of bacterial detection, antibacterial action, inflammation inhibition, tissue regeneration, and bioelectric stimulation. In summary, self-powered enzyme-linked PLLA microspheres offer an effective method for rapid detection, treatment, and repair of tissue injuries.

Soft tissue fillers have received much attention for the treatment of skin aging and the restoration of missing or excised soft volumes. However, the development of fillers with both safety and applicability remains a challenge. This study presented a synergistic composite filler comprising aldehyde-modified hyaluronic acid (OHA), hydrazide-modified hyaluronic acid (NHA), amino-modified poly-L-lactic acid microspheres (NPLLA), and antioxidant copper peptide.

Introduction: Poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) has gained prominence as an injectable dermal filler as it can both stimulate collagen regeneration and deliver long-lasting effects. However, its application is often hampered by delayed therapeutic onset and adverse events, particularly nodule formation, likely due to uneven distribution caused by the easy formation of small clumps during PLLA reconstitution.
Methods: In this study, PLLA porous microspheres were administered at six dorsal sites on one flank of New Zealand white rabbits, with six contralateral sites receiving Löviselle as control.

Background: Ho-poly-L-lactic acid microspheres (Ho-PLLA) offer the advantage of using the same microspheres for both Scout and Therapeutic Administrations (SA and TA) in radioembolization compared to Y. This study aimed to quantify and correct dead time (DT) effects in dose estimation and assess the predictive power of SA on TA.
Methods: A 1.

Injectable facial fillers such as Sculptra stimulate collagen regeneration to fill wrinkles; however, the collagen regeneration is not satisfactory due to the slow emergence of filling effect. In this study, we designed a regenerative dermal filler to provide both immediate and long-lasting filling effects. A hydrogel matrix composed of crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) and collagen was engineered to encapsulate porous poly(L-lactide) (PLLA) microspheres and tranexamic acid (TXA).
