Design of Thiol- and Light-sensitive Degradable Hydrogels using Michael-type Addition Reactions.
Injectable depots that respond to exogenous and endogenous stimuli present an attractive strategy for tunable, patient-specific drug delivery. Here, the design of injectable and multimodal degradable hydrogels that respond to externally applied light and physiological stimuli, specifically aqueous and reducing microenvironments, is reported. Rapid hydrogel formation was achieved using a thiol-m...
متن کاملProtease-degradable microgels for protein delivery for vascularization.
Degradable hydrogels to deliver bioactive proteins represent an emerging platform for promoting tissue repair and vascularization in various applications. However, implanting these biomaterials requires invasive surgery, which is associated with complications such as inflammation, scarring, and infection. To address these shortcomings, we applied microfluidics-based polymerization to engineer i...
متن کاملBiodegradable-co-bioresponsive Hydrogels for Controlled Release of Growth Factor
A series of multi-functional hydrogel systems have been designed and synthesized for potential brain implantation to realize controlled and sustained release of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The systems are three-dimensional crosslinked copolymers composed of a thermo-responsive unit, a hydrolytically degradable and hydrophobic unit, and an enzymatical...
متن کاملDesigning degradable hydrogels for orthogonal control of cell microenvironments
Degradable and cell-compatible hydrogels can be designed to mimic the physical and biochemical characteristics of native extracellular matrices and provide tunability of degradation rates and related properties under physiological conditions. Hence, such hydrogels are finding widespread application in many bioengineering fields, including controlled bioactive molecule delivery, cell encapsulati...
متن کاملHydrolytically degradable hyaluronic acid hydrogels with controlled temporal structures.
Polysaccharides are being processed into biomaterials for numerous biological applications due to their native source in numerous tissues and biological functions. For instance, hyaluronic acid (HA) is found abundantly in the body, interacts with cells through surface receptors, and can regulate cellular behavior (e.g., proliferation, migration). HA was previously modified with reactive groups ...
