By modulating the gelatin and calcium peroxide (CaO<sub>2</sub>) content, we fabricated calcium peroxide-loaded (CPO) microspheres with distinct oxygen release profiles and incorporated them into the PPZ hydrogel, forming a hydrogel based oxygen delivery platform, termed OxyCellgel.

The interaction between the microspheres and hydrogel matrix facilitated uniform and sustained oxygen release. Subsequently, human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were co-delivered with this OxyCellgel system to evaluate cell viability and function under hypoxic conditions. The system significantly enhanced the survival and proliferation of hMSCs and promoted angiogenesis through their paracrine effects under hypoxia.

However, a number of unresolved issues remain regarding their potential effects on organs and tissues, especially due to possible toxic effects of gadolinium ions. The aim of this work was to conduct a comprehensive study of the functional state of the digestive system after an intravenous injection of a colloidal solution of gadolinium-doped carbon dot nanohybrids (GDNHs). The study was performed on Wistar rats. Spontaneous and agonist-induced contractions of the circular smooth muscle (SM) preparations from the gastric <i>antrum</i> and the <i>caecum</i> were measured in isometric mode. Lipid fractions and free amino acids in blood plasma were determined chromatographically. Molecular docking of GDNHs to the structure of the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor was performed using blind rigid docking with Smina osx.12. It was found that intravenous administration of GDNHs generally induced changes in spontaneous SM contractile activity, including increased contraction amplitude and altered frequency, modification of contraction-relaxation cycle durations and velocities, and enhanced efficiency indices. Under these conditions, mechanisms regulating and maintaining physiologically relevant differences in the mechanokinetic parameters of SM contractions across different digestive tract regions were also altered. Moreover, GDNHs modulated the mechanisms of adrenergic inhibition and cholinergic excitation in the <i>antrum</i> and <i>caecum</i>. The effects of GDNHs on carbacholine-induced contractions of the <i>antrum</i> SM were mainly attributed to their organic components, whereas in the <i>caecum</i>, they were predominantly mediated by Gd<sup>3+</sup> ions complexed with nanohybrids. Molecular docking revealed characteristic binding interactions at the interfaces between the GDNHs and the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor in a potential competition with acetylcholine molecules. In addition, changes were observed in the concentrations of most lipid fractions and certain free amino acids in rat blood plasma. Overall, intravenous administration of GDNHs was accompanied by enhanced gastrointestinal SM motility (due to the activation of cholinergic excitation) and partial modulation of hepatic lipid and protein metabolism.

Clot contraction, driven by platelet activity, is known to contribute to clot stabilization and reduction of blood loss by promoting wound closure. This work explores PolySTAT's influence beyond its antifibrinolytic function, with emphasis on platelet-driven clot contraction. We demonstrate that PolySTAT enhances clot contraction in human blood by altering the fibrin network rather than directly modulating platelet activity. Using direct measurements of clot contraction forces in human whole blood, we observed that PolySTAT increased both the rate and magnitude of platelet-generated forces. To assess the mechanical consequences of these microstructural changes, rheological testing was performed across both linear and nonlinear viscoelastic regimes. The data indicate that PolySTAT increases the elastic modulus of clots, providing a stiffer substrate for platelet engagement, and strengthens the fibrin network against mechanical failure while enabling recovery after deformation.
