Nanomedicines have been widely used in colorectal cancer treatment, but their suboptimal targeting and deficient penetration capabilities remain obstacles in the delivery of therapeutics. In this study, inspired by the natural tumor tropism and intestinal invasion of , we engineered highly biomimetic nanoparticles (SM-AuNRs) utilizing a membrane to coat bacilliform Au nanorods. The engineered SM-AuNRs were able to mimic the germ's morphology and biological surface.

However, a compensatory increase in mitochondrial metabolism inhibits its efficacy.

Objective: To investigate the effect of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) on pressure ulcers in mouse.
Methods: The subcutaneous adipose tissue from voluntary donation was harvested. Then the hADSCs were isolated and cultured by mechanical isolation combined with typeⅠcollagenase digestion.
