TLDR Hydrogels combined with extracellular vesicles and 3D bioprinting improve wound healing.
The document reviews the latest advancements in hydrogel-mediated extracellular vesicles (EVs) for enhanced wound healing and their potential in 3D bioprinting. It highlights the therapeutic benefits of EVs in promoting tissue regeneration, reducing inflammation, and enhancing vascularization. The integration of hydrogels with EVs improves stability and delivery, leading to better healing outcomes. Various biomaterials like silk fibroin, alginate, and hyaluronic acid are discussed for their effectiveness in creating EV-loaded hydrogels. The review also explores the potential of 3D bioprinting to create customized wound dressings and tissue scaffolds, suggesting a promising future for personalized and precise wound care solutions. Challenges such as scalability, regulatory considerations, and clinical translation are also addressed.
