Abstract Four-dimensional (4D) bioprinting, in which the concept of time is integrated with
three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting as the fourth dimension, has currently emerged as the …

This review focuses on the synthesis of hydrogel networks using thiomers such as thiolated
hyaluronic acid, chitosan, cyclodextrin, poly (ethylene glycol) and dextran that are cross …

Tissue engineering (TE) is a promising approach for repairing diseased and damaged bone
tissue. Injectable hydrogel based strategies offer a wide range of applications in rapid …

Chitosan, derived from chitin, is a biopolymer consisting of arbitrarily distributed β-(1-4)-
linked D-glucosamine and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine that exhibits outstanding properties …

Soybean protein (SP)-based adhesives present low adhesive strength, poor water
resistance and low mildew resistance, which generally limit their practical industrial …

Various properties of chitosan can be customized by thiolation for very specific needs in a
wide range of application areas. Since the discovery of thiolated chitosans, many studies …

Tumor resection is widely used to prevent tumor growth. However, the defected tissue at the
original tumor site also causes tissue or organ dysfunction which lowers the patient's life …

Thiolated chitosan (CS-NAC) was synthesized and the selected CS-NAC was used together
with silk fibroin (SF) to produce dual network CS-NAC/SF hydrogels. The CS-NAC/SF …

Despite the high regenerative capacity of bone tissue, there are some cases where bone
repair is insufficient for a complete functional and structural recovery after damage. Current …

Suitable wound dressings for accelerating wound healing are actively being designed and
synthesised. In this study, thiolated chitosan (tCh)/oxidized carboxymethyl cellulose (OCMC) …
