Systemic chemotherapy after surgery is necessary to control tumor recurrence, but the severe side effects caused by chemotherapeutic drugs pose a great threat to patients’ health. In this study, we originally develop a porous scaffold used for chemotherapy drug capture by using 3D printing technology. The scaffold is mainly composed of poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and polyetherimide (PEI) with a mass ratio of 5/1. Subsequently, the printed scaffold is modified with DNA through the strong electrostatic integration between DNA and PEI to endow the scaffold with the specific absorption to doxorubicin (DOX, a widely used chemotherapy drug). The results show that…

Promoting rapid healing of diabetic wounds caused by hyperglycemia, bacterial infection, and chronic inflammation is a global challenge. To address this issue, we design and prepare a novel cerium-based MOF nanozyme hydrogel via 3D printing technology to provide a personalized hydrogel wound dressing. The hydrogel is unique in that cerium-based MOFs are grown into the hydrogel network, simplifying the printing process of MOF hydrogel. The prepared hydrogel exhibits specific catalytic activity to various oxygen free radicals and glucose concentration-dependent color changes due to the interconversion between different valence cerium ions. This feature allows for indirect monitoring of glucose content around…
