Mesoporous bioglass capsule composite injectable hydrogels with antibacterial and vascularization promotion properties for chronic wound repair.

Building an angiogenesis microenvironment and inhibiting wound infection are of great significance for chronic wound repair. In this paper, polydopamine-encapsulated mesoporous bioglass (MBG@PDA) capsules were constructed to realize the integration of angiogenesis and infection inhibition through the formation of a composite hydrogel with modified hyaluronic acid (HAMA) to promote wound healing. The experiments showed that the composite hydrogel had good adhesion and toughness and promoted the migration of fibroblasts to accelerate the epithelialization process.

Vancomycin Hydrochloride Loaded Hydroxyapatite Mesoporous Microspheres with Micro/Nano Surface Structure to Increase Osteogenic Differentiation and Antibacterial Ability.

As infection induced by the implant will lead to operation failure, the implant material must be endowed with certain antibacterial properties. Hydroxyapatite (HA) mesoporous microspheres have been widely used in bone repair due to their advantages, including simple synthesis, good osteogenic properties and drug loading capacity. In this study, vancomycin hydrochloride-loaded mesoporous hydroxyapatite microspheres with micro/nanosurface structures were synthesized to increase osteogenic differentiation and antibacterial ability.

Expression of WNT-5a and ROR2 correlates with disease severity in osteosarcoma.

Osteosarcoma, a common malignancy primarily affecting children, generally has a poor prognosis. Novel diagnostic, prognostic and therapeutic markers are required to ameliorate the negative outcomes of this disease. We investigated two potential markers, WNT-5a and ROR2, which are hypothesized to dysregulate WNT signaling pathways to promote tumorigenesis in other types of cancer.
