Although decellularized uterine extracellular matrix (dUECM) holds promise for uterine reconstruction, its clinical translation is limited by rapid degradation and poor angiogenic capacity. Herein, a dual-component system was developed by combining oligomeric proanthocyanidin (OPC)-crosslinked dUECM with an injectable VEGF-loaded nanocomposite hydrogel. The OPC-dUECM scaffold (1 mg/mL OPC solution) restored native-like tensile strength, reduced collagenase-induced degradation to 52%, and facilitated cellular infiltration. The VEGF-EPL-HP nanocomposite hydrogel was fabricated by encapsulating VEGF (350 ng/mL) in ε-polylysine/heparin-poloxamer (EPL-HP) nanoparticles dispersed within a thermosensitive hydrogel. The hydrogel exhibited a gelation temperature of 23.2°C, provided sustained VEGF release over 7 days, and showed negligible hemolytic toxicity. In vitro, this hydrogel significantly enhanced the migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. At 90 days post-surgery in a rat uterine defect model, the combined OPC-dUECM + VEGF-EPL-HP group achieved full endometrial and myometrial regeneration, accompanied by elevated microvessel density, attenuated inflammation, and negligible fibrotic lesions.

While nucleic acid assays (e.g., PCR and CRISPR-based methods) represent the current gold standard for Mpox virus (MPXV) detection, point-of-care (POC) assays for Mpox remain limited. Here, we developed a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based MPXV sensor targeting A29L, a surface protein involved in host cell binding. The MIP sensor exhibits a remarkable detection limit of 7.7 pg/mL (0.54 pM). Moreover, we demonstrated that the MIP sensor detected A29L in artificial interstitial fluid (AIF) with a detection limit of 12.4 pg/mL (0.86 pM), supporting sensitive detection in a lesion-relevant model matrix. The MIP sensor preferentially responded to A29L over MPXV B6R, vaccinia virus A27L, and biointerferents and retained its response after 30 days.

Regulatory T cells (Treg) are the body's highly sophisticated system for regulating immunologic activity. These cells can provide powerful immune suppression while amplifying repair pathways through direct stimulation of local cells. Our research group has previously developed a polymeric delivery system comprised of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) degradable microparticles (MP) loaded with the Treg-attracting protein, CCL22.
