Therapeutic effect of the injectable thermosensitive hydrogel loaded with SHP099 on intervertebral disc degeneration
TL;DR: The results suggest that SHP2 is a key factor in IDD progression, and SHP099 inhibits both its expression and NP cell degeneration, and delivery via injectable thermosensitive hydrogels is a potential treatment strategy for IDD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ionic coordination strengthening of temperature-driven gradient hydrogel actuators with rapid responsiveness
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used a copolymer of NIPAM and 3-sulfopropyl methacrylate potassium salt (SPA) monomers, and tunicate cellulose nanocrystals (TCNCs) as nanofillers.

Functional hydrogel structures for autonomous flow control inside microfluidic channels
David J. Beebe,Jeffrey S. Moore,Joseph M. Bauer,Qing Yu,Robin H. Liu,Chelladurai Devadoss,Byung Ho Jo +6 more
TL;DR: The fabrication of active hydrogel components inside microchannels via direct photopatterning of a liquid phase greatly simplifies system construction and assembly as the functional components are fabricated in situ, and the stimuli-responsive hydrogels components perform both sensing and actuation functions.
