Pancreatic leakage is severe and life-threatening when happening pancreatitis or conducting pancreatectomy on patients, which easily induces bleeding, infection and even death. Commercial tissue adhesives cannot meet the demands for pancreatic leakage sealing due to the weak adhesiveness, potential toxicity and inability to degrade. Few reports have been feasibly paid attention to pancreas sealants due to the complicated conditions such as enzymatic microenvironments, mechanical dynamics and pre-infections. Herein, we prepared a rapid high-adhesion, antibacterial, biodegradable and injectable bioadhesive based on the FDA-approved polyethylene glycol to seal the pancreatic leakage for clinical translations and commercial applications. The tetra-armed poly(ethylene glycol) succinimidyl glutarate (PEG-SG), tetra-armed poly(ethylene glycol) amine (PEG-NH 2 ) and tannic acid (TA) were integrated to rapidly form the adhesive hydrogel (gelling time < 5 seconds) for convenient operations, while this bioadhesive achieved tough tissue adhesion (∼ 30 kPa), robust antibacterial activity (∼ 95% efficiency) and biocompatibility, revealing the excellent performances for pancreatic wound closure. In the established pre-clinical pancreatectomy using Bama miniature pig model, the bioadhesive presented efficient outcomes on pancreatic leakage, and this indicated the promising feasibility of the bioadhesive for clinical trials and translations.

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer, and surgical resection is the first choice for its treatment. With the development of operation techniques, surgical treatment for breast cancer is evolving toward minimally invasive and breast-conserving approaches. However, breast-conserving surgery is prone to an increased risk of cancer recurrence and is becoming a key challenge that needs to be solved. In this study, we introduce a one-shot injectable nano-in-gel vaccine (NIGel-Vax) for postoperative breast cancer therapy. The NIGel-Vax was constructed by mixing protein antigens with PEI-4BImi-Man adjuvant and then encapsulated in a hydrogel made with oxidized dextran (ODEX) and 4-arm PEG-ONH2. Using 4T1 tumor-extracted proteins as antigen, the NIGel-Vax achieved a 92% tumor suppression rate and a 33% cure rate as a postoperative therapy in the 4T1 tumor model. Using the tumor-associated antigen trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2) protein as the antigen, NIGel-Vax achieved a 96% tumor suppression rate and a 50% cure rate in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) models. This design provides an encouraging approach for breast cancer postoperative management.

Soft-tissue trauma emergency caused by natural disasters and traffic accidents is highly prevalent, which can result in massive bleeding, pathogen infection, and even death. Although numerous tissue adhesives can bind to tissue surfaces and cover wounds, most of them still have several deficiencies, including long gelation time, poor adhesive strength, and anti-infection, making them inappropriate for use as first-aid bandages. Herein, injectable and self-healing four-arm-PEG-CHO/polyethyleneimine (PEI) tissue adhesives as liquid first-aid supplies are developed via the dynamic Schiff base reaction for trauma emergency. It is found that the prepared hydrogel adhesives exhibit short and controlled gelation time (9∼88 s), strong adhesive strength, and excellent antibacterial ability. Their hemostatic and antimicrobial performances can be tailored by the mass ratio of four-arm-PEG-CHO/PEI. Moreover, in vitro biological assays display that the developed tissue adhesives possess satisfactory cyto/hemocompatibility. Importantly, in vivo the designed adhesives show fast hemostatic capacity and excellent anti-infection as compared to commercial Prontosan gel. Thus, this work indicates that the four-arm-PEG-CHO/PEI first-aid tissue adhesives display great potential for wound emergency management.
