Promoting wound nerve regeneration and synchronously initiating angiogenesis are critical factors in the healing process of diabetic wounds. However, existing research on diabetic wounds mainly focuses on angiogenesis, bacterial infection and reactive oxygen species, often failing to coordinate neurogenesis and angiogenesis. To coordinate the symbiosis of nerves and blood vessels in the diabetic wounds, we successfully designed a multifunctional chitosan (CS)-based sponges by regulating the structure of CS specifically for diabetic wound healing.

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease with a broad spectrum of motor and non-motor symptoms. The great heterogeneity of clinical symptoms, biomarkers, and neuroimaging and lack of reliable progression markers present a significant challenge in predicting disease progression and prognoses.

Methods: We propose a new approach to disease progression analysis based on the mapper algorithm, a tool from topological data analysis.

Accumulating evidence indicates that adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are an effective treatment for diabetic refractory wounds. However, the application of ADSCs to diabetic wounds is still limited, indicating that we still lack sufficient knowledge regarding regulators/mediators of ADSCs during wound healing. Rab37, a member of RabGTPase, may function as regulator of vesicle trafficking, which is a crucial event for the secretion of cytokines by ADSCs.

The adipogenic differentiation ability of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) is critical for the construction of tissue engineering adipose, which shows promising applications in plastic surgery and regenerative medicine. RAB37 is a member of the small RabGTPase family and plays a critical role in vesicle trafficking. However, the role of RAB37 in adipogenic differentiation of hADSCs remains unclear.

The pearl oyster, Pinctada fucata martensii, produces high-quality pearls. During pearl production, excess immune and inflammatory response after transplantation will lead to nucleus rejection, pearl sac formation failure, and death of the host pearl oyster. The hemocyte transcriptome and fatty acid (FA) contents in the adductor muscle before and after transplantation were analyzed to investigate the response of pearl oyster P.

Objective: To investigate the physiologic course of third stage of labor, and to judge the optimal time of natural placental separation permitted.

Methods: To observe and record the course of third stage of labor by continuous dynamic ultrasonography and to estimate the total amount of blood loss from placental separation within two hours after delivery by the method of weighing lost blood.

Results: Third stage of labor can be divided into four phases: the latent phase (4.
