“…that match the target tissue. Several types of commercial bioglues have been recently developed, including cyanoacrylates, polyester-based adhesives, and poly(acrylic acid)-based glues. − Most bioglues are synthetic polymers with limited biodegradability, high toxicity, and lack of tunability. − Furthermore, many existing bioglues do not have desirable adhesion to wet biological tissues, thus limiting their practical use. ,, A class of bioglues that has not been extensively explored are those that are completely made of proteins. , Protein-based adhesives are generally biocompatible and bioabsorbable as many protein-based biomaterials have been used for biomedical applications. ,,− Additionally, recombinant proteins synthesized from DNA templates allow their protein sequences to be precisely controlled, enabling fine-tuning of mechanical and adhesive properties to match specific requirements for biomedical applications. ,,, These features are hardly achieved by other materials.…”
