The extracellular matrix (ECM) orchestrates cell behavior
and tissue
regeneration by modulating biochemical and mechanical signals. Manipulating
cell–material interactions is crucial for leveraging biomaterials
to regulate cell functions. Yet, integrating multiple cues in a single
material remains a challenge. Here, near-infrared (NIR)-controlled
multifunctional hydrogel platforms, named PIC/CM@NPs, are introduced
to dictate fibroblast behavior during wound healing by tuning the
matrix oxidative stress and mechanical tensions. PIC/CM@NPs are prepared
through cell adhesion-medicated assembly of collagen-like polyisocyanide
(PIC) polymers and cell-membrane-coated conjugated polymer nanoparticles
(CM@NPs), which closely mimic the fibrous structure and nonlinear
mechanics of ECM. Upon NIR stimulation, PIC/CM@NPs composites enhance
fibroblast cell proliferation, migration, cytokine production, and
myofibroblast activation, crucial for wound closure. Moreover, they
exhibit effective and toxin removal antibacterial properties, reducing
inflammation. This multifunctional approach accelerates healing by
95%, highlighting the importance of integrating biochemical and biophysical
cues in the biomaterial design for advanced tissue regeneration.
