However, due to the existence of an interface between hydrogels and human tissues, the transmission of electrical signals from the human tissues to the hydrogel electronic devices will be hindered. The adhesive hydrogels with adhesive properties can tightly combine with the human tissue, which can enhance the contact between the electronic devices and human tissues and reduce the contact resistance, thereby improving the performance of hydrogel electronic devices. In this review, we will discuss in detail the adhesion mechanism of adhesive hydrogels and elaborate on the design principles of adhesive hydrogels. After that, we will introduce some methods of performance evaluation for adhesive hydrogels. Finally, we will provide a perspective on the development of adhesive hydrogel bioelectronics.","PeriodicalId":8862,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical Engineering: Applications, Basis and Communications","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88323568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: BMSCs were isolated by the whole bone marrow adherence method and characterized. A rat model of aging was produced by daily subcutaneous injection of D-galactose into the back of the neck. Rat spleen lymphocyte isolate kit to isolate spleen lymphocytes from aging rats and young rats. In vitro , the co-culture system of BMSCs and aging rats lymphocytes was established, and under the induction of mitogen LPS and ConA, the proliferative activity of lymphocytes in each group was detected by CCK-8 assay, the levels of IgM and IgG in the culture supernatant of each group was detected by ELISA, and the IL-2 radioimmunoassay kits were used to detect the content of IL-2 in the supernatant of each group. Results: (1) The isolated adherent cells showed the characteristics of BMSCs, including spindle-shaped morphology, high expression of CD29, CD44, low expression of CD34 and CD45, and osteogenic/adipogenic ability. (2) Under LPS induction, lymphocyte proliferative activity and secretion of immunoglobulin IgG were reduced in the aging group compared with the young group, and co-culture with BMSCs reversed this trend. (3) Under ConA induction, the IL-2 content of BMSCs co-cultured with aging lymphocytes was higher than that of aging lymphocytes alone ( P < 0.0001); the IL-2 content of CsA co-cultured with aging lymphocytes was lower than that of aging lymphocytes alone ( P < 0.0001).
