Here, we report a programmable dual-crosslinked metallo-elastomer platform, poly(1,3-propylene itaconate-co-2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylate-co-succinate-co-sebacate) (M-PBIS), that integrates dynamic metal–ligand coordination with covalent crosslinking to enable orthogonal control over network mechanics, time-dependent viscoelastic behavior, and processability. PBIS polymers were synthesized by modular step-growth polyesterification, allowing independent tuning of backbone composition, bipyridine ligand density for metal coordination, and alkene (C = C) content for covalent crosslinking. This multidimensional design space allowed systematic tuning of tensile elastic modulus (0.06–3.2 MPa), extensibility (53%–491%), toughness (66–1339 kJ m<sup>−3</sup>), creep resistance, and self-healing behavior, while maintaining controlled hydrolytic degradation and low physiological swelling (< 7%). Rheological analysis established a processing window supportive of conventional melt- and flow-based fabrication methods. To elucidate the role of scaffold architecture in vascular remodeling, M-PBIS was fabricated into small-diameter grafts using either poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-templated porous structures or electrowritten circumferentially-biased, helically wound fibers. In a rat carotid artery interposition model, electrowritten Zn-PBIS grafts maintained patency and dimensional stability through 21 weeks, supporting organized endothelialization, circumferential smooth muscle alignment, and structured extracellular matrix deposition. In contrast, PMMA-templated porous grafts underwent progressive dilation and structural instability during remodeling. These results demonstrate that dual-crosslinked metallo-elastomers combined with biomimetic circumferentially-biased fiber architecture enable mechanically resilient, biologically adaptive vascular grafts and establish M-PBIS as a manufacturable platform for resorbable small-diameter arterial reconstruction and other load-bearing soft-tissue applications.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":459,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Fiber Materials","volume":"8 5","pages":"2160 - 2184"},"PeriodicalIF":22.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s42765-026-00744-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148710380","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address these problems, the development of eco-friendly structural coloration strategies has become an urgent demand in modern textile engineering. Inspired by nature, animals and plants display diverse structural colors to fulfill survival, communication, and reproduction needs. This unique coloration enables tunable and vivid hues without relying on chemical dyes or pigments, which has spurred the rapid development of optical materials featuring structural color in fields such as color display, anti-counterfeiting, and smart sensing. Photonic crystals (PCs), a type of material that produces structural colors through the interaction between microstructure and light, have demonstrated significant potential in the field of textile green coloring. This is attributed to their straightforward preparation process, environmental friendliness, and excellent fading resistance. PC materials provide a brand-new and promising idea for clean coloring of textiles; however, there are few reviews in this field. Distinct from the previous reviews, we present an overview of the advancements in PCs structural color materials and emphasize their recent developments within the textile field. First, the chromogenic mechanism, definition, classification of PCs, and their current representative applications are introduced. Second, the utilization of PCs structural color materials in the textile field is examined, encompassing structural color fibers, yarns, and fabrics. Third, the current challenges faced by structural color fabrics are sorted out and analyzed in a problem-oriented manner, including the colorfastness, preparation efficiency, patterning and functionalization. The challenges and developmental prospects encountered by structural color textiles are comprehensively summarized. We envision that this review will guide the advancement of PC-based structural colors in textiles and inspire interdisciplinary research and practical applications across colloid chemistry, bionics, materials science, optics, and textile engineering.</p><h3>Graphical Abstract</h3>\u0000<div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":459,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Fiber Materials","volume":"8 5","pages":"1759 - 1803"},"PeriodicalIF":22.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148710422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mechanical stimulation is critical in bone regeneration and significantly influences both EV secretion and cargo composition.

Most current scalable bioreactor systems has achieved high yields through high-density cell culture and fluid flow, yet they do not provide programmable or spatially consistent mechanical stimulation. In this study, an electrospun scaffold-enabled bioreactor was developed to integrate high-density three-dimensional macrophage culture with programmable cyclic stretching, enabling simultaneous EV scale-up and cargo programming. The interconnected fiber junction network transmits boundary-applied strain with enhanced spatial consistency, while the highly porous scaffold supports dense cell seeding and efficient EV release and collection. This approach increases EV yield by 13.8-fold compared to conventional two-dimensional culture. Fiber-mediated mechanical conditioning activates Piezo1-dependent Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling and integrin-associated mechanotransduction, promotes Yes-associated protein (YAP) nuclear translocation, and remodels EV cargo composition. The resulting mechanically stimulated EVs (ms-EVs) demonstrate concurrent pro-regenerative activities, including cellular rejuvenation, vascular repair, and osteogenic enhancement, and perform favorably compared to canonical interleukin-4 (IL-4)-polarized M2 macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles (M2-EVs). In aged rat femoral defects, ms-EV-functionalized scaffolds increase bone volume fraction by approximately 1.7-fold at 8 weeks, reduce p16<sup>+</sup> senescent cells, and enhance CD31<sup>+</sup> neovascularization.

To overcome this, our study has developed a multiscale bionic fibrous scaffold. The scaffold combines directional freezing with electrospinning technology. While constructing oriented channels that mimic natural myocardial tissue, it embeds nanofibers into the channel walls to form synapse-like microstructures. In vivo and in vitro experiments demonstrate that this scaffold synergistically promotes myocardial repair through multiple mechanisms: providing mechanical support, promoting angiogenesis, and regulating macrophage polarization. It significantly improves cardiac ejection function and inhibits ventricular remodeling. This repair mechanism results from the nanofiber synapse structure activating downstream intracellular signaling networks through its integrin binding sites, thereby regulating cellular behavior.

To address these bottlenecks, might we move beyond the traditional strategy of mixing high-density cells with dense polymer hydrogels? Instead, could the self-sustained proliferation of basic cells together with endothelial vascularization be harnessed to construct vascularized HCD tissues exhibiting structural developmental reinforcement? Here, by integrating fiber-inducing factors from natural cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) structures with porous matrices, we propose a model where biomimetic structural units are directly mixed with a specific quantity of basic cells to construct a porous structural carrier that confines cells to two-dimensional constraints within microfibers. The two-dimensional constraint method using microfiber units eliminates the confining constraints of traditional hydrogel networks on cells, providing ample physiological space for rapid extension, migration, and proliferation. Meanwhile, the strategy of combining microfiber units with porous hydrogels significantly enhances structural porosity while ensuring structural integrity and strength, preventing collapse. Within this porous biomimetic microfiber system, basic cells proliferate continuously, strengthening intercellular interactions and reinforcing the structure’s overall mechanical properties and stability. Furthermore, the microfibrillar framework provides ECM-like cues that promote ordered expansion and spontaneous vascular formation. Introducing human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) enables paracrine pro-angiogenic signaling to stimulate endothelial proliferation and migration. The synergistic effect of spatial structural induction and biological signaling stimulation significantly promotes the generation and maturation of vascular-like structures within the system.
