Imbalances in the microbiota are linked to various health issues, including digestive disorders, obesity, immune diseases, and mental health problems [56]
For example, mesoporous polydopamine nanoparticles can be loaded with the mitochondria-protective peptide SS-31 and incorporated into hydrogels, achieving synergistic photothermal antibacterial effects and mitochondrial function maintenance in a diabetic mouse full-thickness wound model, resulting in 40% faster wound closure compared to controls and improved histological outcomes including enhanced re-epithelialization and collagen deposition (Table 2)
