DNA Methylation Pattern and mRNA Expression Level of E-Cadherin and P16 Genes in Thrombotic Disorders.

Objective: DNA methylation, as an epigenetic alteration, plays an essential role in the development of atherosclerosis and venous thrombosis. E-cadherin, a tumor suppressor gene and adhesion molecule, has a crucial function in platelet aggregation and hemostasis. P16, a cell cycle regulator, is involved in venous thrombosis.

Genetic-epigenetic-neuropeptide associations in mood and anxiety disorders: Toward personalized medicine.

Mood and anxiety disorders are complex psychiatric conditions shaped by the multifactorial interplay of genetic, epigenetic, and neuropeptide factors. This review aims to elucidate the intricate interactions among these factors and their potential in advancing personalized medicine. We examine the genetic underpinnings, emphasizing key heritability studies and specific gene associations.

How the combination of alginate and chitosan can fabricate a hydrogel with favorable properties for wound healing.

Wound management has always been a significant concern, particularly for men, and the search for effective wound dressings has led to the emergence of hydrogels as a promising solution. In recent years, hydrogels, with their unique properties, have gained considerable importance in wound management. Among the various types of hydrogels, those incorporating chitosan and alginate, two distinct chemical materials, have shown potential in accelerating wound healing.

Simultaneous Coating of Electrospun Nanofibers with Bioactive Molecules for Stem Cell Osteogenesis .

Objective: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are widely recognized as a promising cell type for therapeutic applications due to their ability to secrete and regenerate bioactive molecules. For effective bone healing, it is crucial to select a scaffold that can support, induce, and restore biological function. Evaluating the scaffold should involve assessing MSC survival, proliferation, and differentiation.

Hydrogel-mediated delivery of platelet-derived exosomes: Innovations in tissue engineering.

In this scholarly review, we conduct a thorough examination of the significant role played by platelet-derived exosomes (Plt-Exos) and hydrogels in the fields of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Our detailed investigation highlights the central involvement of Plt-Exos in various physiological and pathological processes, underscoring their potential contributions to diverse areas such as wound healing, neural rejuvenation, and cancer progression. Despite the promising therapeutic aspects, the notable variability in the isolation and characterization of pEVs underscores the need for a more rigorous and standardized methodology.
