TLDR Magneto-responsive biocomposites help heal wounds faster and better.
Magneto-responsive biocomposites offer promising advantages for wound healing due to their biocompatibility, controllability, and convenience, addressing the increasing issue of non-healing wounds. This review highlights the latest advances in magnetic responsive wound dressings, discussing their preparation strategies and characteristics such as magneto-induced orientation and mechanical stimulation. The mechanisms by which these biocomposites promote healing include regulating cell behavior, enhancing electrical signals, controlling drug release, and accelerating tissue reconstruction. The paper also identifies future challenges and development directions for these materials in clinical applications.
