AI Article Synopsis

  • The study found that cultured allogenic fibroblasts labeled with fluorescent acridine orange are largely gone from burn wounds within two days post-transplantation.
  • Despite their quick disappearance, these fibroblasts significantly enhance wound healing, as observed through light autoradiography and quantitative analysis.
  • The presence of the transplanted fibroblasts promotes faster formation of connective tissue akin to the dermis, facilitating the process of epithelialization in the wounds, regardless of their initial condition.

Article Abstract

Cultured allogenic fibroblasts labeled with fluorescent acridine orange and transplanted onto burn wound virtually completely disappear from the wound surface within 2 days (are destroyed). Study of wound morphology by light autoradiography and quantitative analysis showed a stimulating effect of transplanted fibroblasts on wound healing. This effect, irrespective of the initial state of the wound, is always directed at accelerated formation of connective tissue similar to the derma and capable of epithelialization.

Anti-gene oligonucleotide clamps invade dsDNA and downregulate expression.

Anti-gene oligonucleotides belong to a group of therapeutic compounds, which, in contrast to antisense oligonucleotides, bind to DNA. Clamp anti-gene oligonucleotides bind through a double-stranded invasion mechanism. With two arms connected by a linker, they hybridize to one of the DNA strands forming Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds.

Background: Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is one of the most devastating outcomes of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). This remains an area of unmet clinical need for optimal therapy for BOS patients partly due to the limited understanding of pathogenic mechanisms.

Methods: We collected blood samples from 22 patients with cGVHD and 11 patients without cGVHD following allo-HSCT.

Background: The gold standard of care for patients with severe peripheral nerve injury is autologous nerve grafting; however, autologous nerve grafts are usually limited for patients because of the limited number of autologous nerve sources and the loss of neurosensory sensation in the donor area, whereas allogeneic or xenografts are even more limited by immune rejection. Tissue-engineered peripheral nerve scaffolds, with the morphology and structure of natural nerves and complex biological signals, hold the most promise as ideal peripheral nerve "replacements".

Aim: To prepare allogenic peripheral nerve scaffolds using a low-toxicity decellularization method, and use human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) as seed cells to cultivate scaffold-cell complexes for the repair of injured peripheral nerves.

Background And Aims: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a pivotal technique for excision of early-stage esophageal tumors. However, its primary complication, postoperative esophageal stricture, is a significant challenge owing to the absence of effective preventive measures. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have emerged as a promising treatment modality to address this concern.

Allogeneic fibroblasts ameliorate intervertebral disc degeneration by reducing osteophytes in rabbits.

Introduction: Low back pain (LBP) was commonly induced by intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), which is accompanied by the loss of disc height and osteophyte generation. Cell-based therapy is a promising treatment for preventing the degeneration of interverbral disc. In our study, allogeneic fibroblasts are shown to ameliorate intervertebral disc degeneration by reducing osteophytes in rabbits.
