In article 2201955, Cheng Sun, Guillermo A. Ameer, and co-workers report a method to confer X-ray contrast to 3D printed polymeric bioresorbable stents (BRS) through the incorporation of the clinically used contrast agent iodixanol into a citrate-based polymer ink. The 3D-printed BRS has strong X-ray visibility, mechanical competence, and excellent in vitro biocompatibility, characteristics that are important for successful clinical use.

In article 2201346 by Milica Radisic and co-workers, scaffolds fabricated by coaxial printing of bioelastomers can mimic both the structures and mechanical properties of native tissues, which are ideal for organ-on-a-chip and tissue engineering applications. This image shows an artistic tubular structure made of a biodegradable elastomer called PICO.

In article 2201655, Yan-Qing Guan and co-workers successfully develop a novel photo-controlled drug delivery system for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. This nanoparticle uses MgO nanoparticles as a substrate, polydopamine as a shell and carries anti-SNCA plasmid and puerarin. Under the irradiation of 808 nm near-infrared light, the composite nanoparticles in deep tissues are activated, then absorbed by nerve cells after penetrating the blood–brain barrier, playing the role of antioxidation, anti-inflammation and inhibiting the accumulation of α-synuclein. Therefore, this strategy for intracerebral drug delivery can be an ideal approach to combat neurodegenerative diseases.

Injectable hydrogels can support the body's innate healing capability by providing a temporary matrix for host cell ingrowth and neovascularization. The clinical adoption of current injectable systems remains low due to their cumbersome preparation requirements, device malfunction, product dislodgment during administration, and uncontrolled biological responses at the treatment site.

Bioresorbable stents (BRS) hold great promise for the treatment of many life-threatening luminal diseases. Tracking and monitoring of stents in vivo is critical for avoiding their malposition and inadequate expansion, which often leads to complications and stent failure. However, obtaining high X-ray visibility of polymeric BRS has been challenging because of their intrinsic radiolucency.

The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is a major limiting factor that prevents the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). In the present study, MgOp@PPLP nanoparticles are explored by using MgO nanoparticles as a substrate, polydopamine as a shell, wrapping anti-SNCA plasmid inside, and modifying polyethylene glycol, lactoferrin, and puerarin on the surface to improve the hydrophilicity, brain targeting and antioxidant properties of the particles, respectively.

In article 2200880 by Molly S. Shoichet and co-workers, an engineered hyaluronan hydrogel elucidates cell–matrix interactions and bile duct morphogenesis. The hydrogel viscoelasticity is systematically varied to promote primary cholangiocyte organoid growth from encapsulated single cells, which is mediated by Yes-associated protein signaling. The immobilized Jagged1 in the hydrogel activates Notch signaling in 3D cultured cholangiocytes, which leads to unprecedented bile duct-like morphogenesis.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) involves excessive inflammatory responses, which are characterized by the existence of high levels of proinflammatory M1 macrophages rather than prohealing M2 macrophages, and oxidative stress. Interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) is a promising therapeutic target in regulation of macrophage reprogramming from the M1 to M2 phenotype.

Soft tissue regeneration remains a challenge in reconstructive surgery. So far, both autologous fat implantations and artificial implants methods used in clinical applications lead to various disadvantages and limited lifespan. To overcome these limitations and improve the graft volume maintenance, reproducing a mature adipose tissue already including vasculature structure before implantation can be the solution.

Thermotherapy can directly kill tumor cells whilst being accompanied by immune-enhancing effects. However, this immune-enhancing effect suffers from insufficient expression of immune response factors (e.g., heat shock protein 70, HSP70), resulting in no patient benefiting due to the recurrence of tumor cells after thermotherapy.

Neural stem cells (NSCs) transplantation has been considered as a promising strategy for the treatment of ischemic stroke. However, the therapeutic prospect is limited by the poor control over the survival, migration, and maturation of transplanted NSCs. Upregulating hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α expression in stem cells can improve the survival and migration of NSCs grafted for stroke therapy.

Nanoprobes (NPs) in the second near-infrared biowindow (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm) are developed and widely used in cancer phototheranostics. However, most NIR-II NPs exhibit low phototheranostic efficiency due to their tedious synthetic routes, large particle sizes (>20 nm), and lack of active targeting properties.
