Tissue-engineered skin is a significant advance in the field of wound healing. It has mainly been developed because of limitations associated with the use of autografts and allografts where the donor site suffers from pain, infection, and scarring. Recently, tissue-engineered skin replacements have been finding widespread application, especially in the case of burns, where the major limiting factor is the availability of autologous skin. The development of a bioartificial skin facilitates the treatment of patients with deep burns and various skin-related disorders. The present review gives a comprehensive overview of the developments and future prospects of scaffolds as skin substitutes for tissue repair and regeneration.

CYP3A5 promotes glioblastoma stemness and chemoresistance through fine-tuning NAD/NADH ratio.
J Exp Clin Cancer Res

Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) exhibits a cellular hierarchy with a subpopulation of stem-like cells known as glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) that drive tumor growth and contribute to treatment resistance. NAD(H) emerges as a crucial factor influencing GSC maintenance through its involvement in diverse biological processes, including mitochondrial fitness and DNA damage repair. However, how GSCs leverage metabolic adaptation to obtain survival advantage remains elusive.

Background: Tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a crucial role in tumor growth and metastasis. Exploring biomarkers that are significantly associated with TME can help guide individualized treatment of patients.
Methods: We analyzed the expression and survival of P4HB in pan-cancer through the TCGA database, and verified the protein level of P4HB by the HPA database.

Arrhythmias are a hallmark of myocardial infarction (MI) and increase patient mortality. How insult to the cardiac conduction system causes arrhythmias following MI is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate conduction system restoration during neonatal mouse heart regeneration versus pathological remodeling at non-regenerative stages.

Keloids are disfiguring proliferative scars, and their pathological mechanisms are still unclear. We have previously established that FoxC1 plays a significant role in rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, but its molecular mechanisms in pathological scar formation remain elusive. In this study, we analyzed keloid tissue characteristics using HE staining and immunohistochemistry, revealing abnormal expression of FoxC1 and Notch3 in keloids.
