Bioactive NIR-II Light-Responsive Shape Memory Composite Based on Cuprorivaite Nanosheets for Endometrial Regeneration.

ABSTRACT: Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) caused by mechanical damage or infection increase the risk of infertility in women. Although numerous physical barriers such as balloon or hydrogel are developed for the prevention of IUAs, the therapeutic efficacy is barely satisfactory due to limited endometrial healing, which may lead to recurrence. Herein, a second near-infrared (NIR-II) light-responsive shape memory composite based on the combination of cuprorivaite (CaCuSi₄ O₁₀ ) nanosheets (CUP NSs) as photothermal conversion agents and polymer poly(d,l-lactide-co-trimethylene carbonate) (PT) as shape memory building blocks is developed. The as-prepared CUP/PT composite possesses excellent shape memory performance under NIR-II light, and the improved operational feasibility as an a
