This paper presents a 3mm fracture model of radial bone of rabbits using operation method. The bone defect was treated with collagen sponge with different pH and different content. After the operation, the body temperature, blood routine measurement, serum antibody, X-ray examination and histological observation in each group were examined to evaluate and study the curative effect and safety of collagen sponge. Collagen sponge had a good result of safety, but there was slightly change in blood routine, serum antibody, and histological observation, etc, with the pH changing and different content of collagen. The results showed that there was no obvious influence of safety to tissues after treatment of the collagen sponge at different pH implanted into bone defect. Collagen sponge at lower pH could promote the healing of bone defect partly, while the safety of collagen sponge with lower content was better.

Necrotizing soft tissue infections (NTSIs) represent a concept of necrotizing infections involving the skin, subcutaneous tissue, fascia, and muscle, and it is a potentially fatal disease. Early exploratory incision is strongly recommended for both the diagnosis and treatment of necrotizing soft tissue infections. Treatment of necrotizing soft tissue infections requires the administration of appropriate antimicrobial agents and adequate surgical debridement.

Current sound-absorbing materials, reliant on nonrenewable resources, pose sustainability and disposal challenges. This study introduces a novel collagen-lignin sponge (CLS), a renewable biomass-based material that combines collagen's acoustic properties with lignin's structural benefits. CLSs demonstrate high porosity (>0.

Background: The purpose of the present case study is to describe the application of a modification of the Biologically-oriented Alveolar Ridge Preservation (BARP) principles in cases of peri-implant bone dehiscence (PIBD) due to a compromised alveolus at immediate implant placement (IIP).
Methods: The technique is based on the stratification of three layers: a deep layer with a collagen sponge (CS) in the apical part of the alveolus (where the buccal bone plate was still present) to support the blood clot; a graft layer to correct the PIBD; and a superficial collagen layer to cover the graft thus providing space and enhancing clot/graft stability. Healing was obtained by primary closure.

Adipose tissue engineering requires effective strategies for regenerating adipose tissue, with adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) being favored due to their robust self-renewal capacity and multipotent differentiation potential. In this study, the efficacy of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) mesh containing collagen sponge (CS), seeded with ASCs to promote adipose tissue formation, was investigated. PLLA-CS implants seeded with GFP-positive ASCs were inserted at high concentration (1 × 10 cells/implant, H-ASC) and low concentration (1 × 10 cells/implant, L-ASC), as were unseeded controls.

Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of pain, disability, and reduced mobility worldwide, characterized by metabolic imbalances in chondrocytes, extracellular matrix (ECM), and subchondral bone. Emerging evidence highlights the critical role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in OA pathogenesis. This study focuses on lncRNA PTS-1, a novel lncRNA, to explore its function and regulatory mechanisms in OA progression.
