TL;DR: Echocardiography, hematoxylin-eosin staining, and Masson trichrome staining results indicated that an intramyocardial injection of the composite hydrogel into the peripheral region of a MI rat model could reduce the infarct size and improve the cardiac function after 28 days.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the dual-release of VEGF and BMP9 from the composite hydrogel results in a collaborative effect on the treatment of MI and improvement of heart function, showing a promising potential for cardiac clinical application.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper developed a facile method for endowing diverse substrates with long-term antibiofilm property by deposition of a hybrid film composed of tannic acid/Cu ion (TA/Cu) complex and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG).

TL;DR: Photothermally activated electrospun hybrid nanofibers are developed for high-efficiency surface-mediated gene transfection of NIH-3T3 fibroblasts and offer a facile and reliable method for the regulation of cell function and cell behavior via localized gene transfecture, showing great potential for application in tissue engineering and cell-based therapy.

TL;DR: In this paper, a dual-functional bacterial cellulose (BC) membrane was fabricated by physical incorporation of gold nanorods (GNRs) followed by deposition of a phase-transitioned bovine serum albumin (PTB) film.
