Abstract Background Excessive oxidative stress at the wound sites always leads to a prolonged healing and even causes chronic inflammatory wounds. Therefore, antioxidative dressings with multiple features are desired improve performance. Herein, we fabricated ROS-scavenging hybrid hydrogel by incorporating mussel-inspired fullerene nanocomposites (C60@PDA) into gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogel. Results The developed C60@PDA/GelMA showed sustainable free radical scavenging ability,...

Breast cancer holds the highest incidence rate among women. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a potent frontline drug for treatment of breast cancer. The anticancer mechanisms DOX include inducing immunogenic cell death in tumor cells, causing damage to DNA, and generating free radicals. However, its pharmacological efficacy wide use are restricted by substantial dose-dependent side effects. We have recently revealed that 1,7-Heptanediol (1,7-Hept) severely impairs bioenergetics metabolism aggressive...
