Construction of a Subcutaneous Fat Transplantation Model Infected with Mycobacterium.

Introduction: Fat grafting procedures for body contouring and cosmetic reconstruction have received widespread attention.

Method: In recent years, there has been an increase in post-fat grafting infections caused by Mycobacterium abscessus (MA), and there is a lack of representative and standardized murine models of infection; therefore, there has been limited research on the treatment of post-fat grafting MA infections. To overcome this challenge, we constructed an MA infection model after fat grafting.

The Usage of Mesh and Relevant Prognosis in Implant Breast Reconstruction Surgery: A Meta-analysis.

Background: Although mesh-based implant breast reconstruction surgery is emerging as the primary surgical procedure for breast reconstruction, mesh use remains controversial in implant breast reconstruction surgery, especially in terms of how to select the ideal mesh. Our aim is to elaborate relevant prognosis in the mesh-based implant breast reconstruction surgery.

Methods: Relevant studies were identified from PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane library searches.

Cryopreservation of bioflavonoid-rich plant sources and bioflavonoid-microcapsules: emerging technologies for preserving bioactivity and enhancing nutraceutical applications.

Bioflavonoids are natural polyphenolic secondary metabolites that are medicinal. These compounds possess antitumor, cardioprotective, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-psoriasis properties to mention a few. Plant species that contain bioflavonoids should be preserved as such.

Identification of CRKL as an oncogenic biomarker for prognosis and immunotherapy in melanoma, and its potential molecular mechanism.

CRKL (CRK Like Proto-Oncogene) belongs to the Crk family and is a 39-kDa adapter protein that encodes SH2 and SH3 (src homologs) domains. To identify its oncogenic role in malignant melanoma, we investigated the association between CRKL and mutation, prognosis, tumor mutation burden, immune cell infiltration of melanoma, and explored the associations between CRKL and immunotherapy response. Our results showed that abnormal CRKL expression is associated with poor prognosis in melanoma and is significantly correlated with immune-activated pathways and processes, immune cell infiltrations, and expression of immunoregulators.

Multifunctional inorganic biomaterials: New weapons targeting osteosarcoma.

Osteosarcoma is the malignant tumor with the highest incidence rate among primary bone tumors and with a high mortality rate. The anti-osteosarcoma materials are the cross field between material science and medicine, having a wide range of application prospects. Among them, biological materials, such as compounds from black phosphorous, magnesium, zinc, copper, silver, etc.
