This makes them a viable alternative to metallic implants, which are susceptible to infection and have limited endurance. The present work aims to examine the impact of sol–gel bioactive glass ceramic coatings on Al₂TiO₅ pellets throughout immersion periods of 12 and 24 h (BG12, BG24). A dual-phase degradation process occurs in these coated scaffolds: first, ion release from the coating stimulates the creation of hydroxyapatite, followed by a progressive breakdown of the Al₂TiO₅ substrate, which further facilitates bone regeneration. An analysis of the structural and mechanical characteristics of coated and uncoated pellets was conducted by utilizing FESEM-EDS, XRD, TG-DTA, FTIR, BET, AFM, and micro-UTM techniques. Findings indicated that the scaffolds consist of a crystalline component of calcium magnesium silicate and calcium sodium aluminum silicate, together with a porous surface. Among the scaffolds, BG24 had the greatest compressive strength of 101 MPa. Bioactivity investigations demonstrated the production of hydroxyapatite in SBF, with a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 1.68 attained by BG24 after 14 days. Moreover, BG24 showed 90% cell survival at 100 μg mL^–1, so verifying its cytocompatibility based on biocompatibility and antibacterial tests. Antibacterial research also showed that it effectively stopped the growth of <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>E. coli</i> bacteria, which supports the idea that it might be able to lower the risk of infections in biomedical settings.

However, SS can cause local corrosion in the body, which may affect cell proliferation and differentiation, and is prone to related bacterial infection. Therefore, surface modification is required to improve the corrosion resistance and antibacterial performance of SS to extend its service life. To achieve this goal, a new type of composite coating was established on the surface of SS. First, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of SS by electrochemical deposition. Then, polydopamine (PDA) was formed through the self-polymerization of dopamine. Finally, the Michael addition reaction between ε-polylysine (ε-PL) and PDA was used to chemically graft a cationic antimicrobial peptide (AMP), namely, ε-PL, constructing a corrosion-resistant and antibacterial ZnO/PDA/ε-PL coating on the surface of the SS (SZP/ε-PL). The results indicated that the obtained composite coating could significantly improve the corrosion resistance of SS because of the introduction of ZnO. After being irradiated with near-infrared (NIR) light (wavelength: 1064 nm, power: 1 W/cm²) for 8 min, the temperature of SZP/ε-PL increased from 22.4 to 57.8 °C. Moreover, there was no significant temperature decay after four cycles, which indicated the good photothermal performance and stability of SZP/ε-PL owing to the function of PDA. Combining photothermal sterilization and AMP contact sterilization, the antibacterial rates of SZP/ε-PL against <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> both reached nearly 100%.

To address this limitation, a sensory neuron-integrated skin spheroid (SS) model was established, incorporating key skin cell types and providing a rapid, adaptable, and physiologically relevant platform for screening the biological activity of topical delivery systems targeting neuronal pathways. The model’s responsiveness was demonstrated using acetyl hexapeptide-3 (HEX-3), a neuropeptide that inhibits acetylcholine release. HEX-3 was internalized by spheroid cells, with preferential accumulation around sensory neurons, confirming targeted cellular uptake. In parallel, ex vivo human skin studies confirmed that HEX-3 can traverse the stratum corneum and accumulate in deeper layers. Treatment with this film enhanced skin hydration, reduced scaling, and improved the structural organization of the stratum corneum after 48 h. Functional assays using the SS model showed that HEX-3 treatment suppressed acetylcholine release, upregulated the antioxidant enzyme SOD2, and stimulated type I collagen synthesis. In aged skin samples, the application of HEX-3 significantly increased collagen levels. This effect was mirrored in the spheroid model, which reached collagen levels comparable to those of aged human skin upon treatment.
