An active shrinkage and antioxidative hydrogel with biomimetic mechanics functions modulates inflammation and fibrosis to promote skin regeneration by Tao Zhang, Xin-Cao Zhong, Zi-Xuan Feng, Xiao-Ying Lin, Chun-Ye Chen, Xiao-Wei Wang, Kai Guo, Yi Wang, Jun Chen, Yong-Zhong Du, Ze-Ming Zhuang, Yong Wang, Wei-Qiang Tan

“…However, the profibrotic niche of macrophages induced a highly contractile α-SMA positive state in myofibroblasts, whereas the sustained LMs release could regulate this niche to control fibrosis and promote the correct biomechanical orientation of collagen. Notably, the biomimetic mechanics of the hydrogel mimicked the contraction characteristics of myofibroblasts, and the skin-like elastic modulus could accommodate the skin dynamic changes and restore the mechanical integrity of wound defect, partially substituting myofibroblasts' mechanical role in tissue repair. …”
