February 2026 in “ACS Omega” The study presents a multifunctional hydrogel, QTMP-Gel, designed to treat oral mucositis (OM) by addressing oxidative damage and bacterial infection. The hydrogel, made from quaternary ammonium chitosan and tannic acid, adheres well to wet oral mucosa and releases drugs in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS). It contains platinum nanoparticles for ROS scavenging and minocycline hydrochloride for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. In vitro tests showed excellent biocompatibility and effectiveness against E. coli and S. aureus. In a hamster model, QTMP-Gel accelerated wound healing, reduced proinflammatory cytokines, and cleared excess ROS, offering a promising approach for OM treatment.

May 2026 in “European Cells and Materials” The study presents a novel hyaluronic acid-based biphasic delivery platform for Huperzine A (HupA), aimed at improving Alzheimer's disease management. This system encapsulates HupA-loaded polyhydroxyalkanoate nanoparticles within a HA gel matrix, achieving complete drug encapsulation and extending HupA release for over 20 days. In vivo tests on AD mice showed significant therapeutic efficacy, including reduced amyloid-beta deposition, restored cholinergic function, suppressed glial activation, reduced neuroinflammation, enhanced neuronal survival, and preserved synaptic integrity. These effects led to improved spatial memory and reduced anxiety/depression-like behaviors. The study concludes that the HupA@(NP/Gel) system effectively addresses HupA delivery challenges, offering a promising strategy for Alzheimer's intervention.
