Article Abstract
In breast reconstructive procedures, adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) that are present in clinical fat grafting isolates are considered to play the main role in improving wound healing. In patients following chemotherapy for breast cancer, poor soft tissue wound healing is a major problem. However, it is unclear if tamoxifen (TAM) as the most widely used hormonal therapeutic agent for breast cancer treatment, affects the ASCs and ultimately wound healing. This study evaluated whether TAM exposure to in vitro human ASCs modulate cellular functions. Human ASCs were isolated and treated with TAM at various concentrations. The effects of TAM on cell cycle, cell viability and proliferation rates of ASCs were examined by growth curves, MTT assay and BrdU incorporation, respectively. Annexin V and JC-1 Mitochondrial Membrane Potential assays were used to analyze ASC apoptosis rates. ASCs were cultured in derivative-specific differentiation media with or without TAM (5 uM) for 3 weeks. Adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation levels were measured by quantitative RT-PCR and histological staining. TAM has cytotoxic effects on human ASCs through apoptosis and inhibition of proliferation in dose- and time-dependent manners. TAM treatment significantly down-regulates the capacity of ASCs for adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation (p<0.05 vs. control), and inhibit the ability of the ASCs to subsequently formed cords in Matrigel. This study is the first findings to our knowledge that demonstrated that TAM inhibited ASC proliferation and multi-lineage ASC differentiation rates. These results may provide insight into the role of TAM with associated poor soft tissue wound healing and decreased fat graft survival in cancer patients receiving TAM.

Macrophage efferocytosis (clearance of apoptotic cells) is crucial for tissue homeostasis and wound repair, where macrophages secrete factors that promote resolution of inflammation and regenerative signalling. This study examined the role of efferocytic macrophage-associated CCL2 secretion, its influence on mesenchymal stem/progenitor cell (MSPC) chemotaxis, and in vivo cell recruitment using Ccr2 (KO) mice with disrupted CCL2 receptor signalling in two regenerative models: ossicle implants and ulnar stress fractures. Single cell RNA sequencing and PCR validation indicated that efferocytosis of various apoptotic cells at bone injury sites (osteoblasts, pre-osteoblasts, MSPC) upregulated CCL2.

Introduction: Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare neutrophilic dermatosis characterized by rapidly enlarging, painful ulcers with undermined borders. The management of PG is challenging due to the lack of standardized evidence-based treatments.
Areas Covered: This review examines recent efforts to establish standardized outcomes for clinical trials to facilitate the drug development process for PG.

Background: Stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) is an aggressive malignancy characterized by high tumor plasticity and heterogeneity. This study investigates the role of Autophagy and Beclin 1 Regulator 1 (AMBRA1) in regulating tumor plasticity in STAD progression.
Methods: Combined with clinical data, the pan-cancer analysis of AMBRA1 was performed to analyze the role of AMBRA1 in STAD.
Identification of Potential Drug Targets for the Treatment of Severe Burn Wounds from a Multi-Omics Perspective.

Purpose: Severe burns result in significant skin damage, impairing its primary role as an infection barrier and presenting substantial treatment challenges. Despite improvements in the treatment of burn patients due to advancements in materials and techniques, there remains a need for novel therapeutic approaches to enhance burn prognosis further.
Patients And Methods: Several types of genomic methods are used in this study, such as differential gene expression analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), machine learning, and Mendelian randomization (MR), to find genes that are linked to severe burns and create a diagnostic nomogram to see how well these genes can predict severe burns.
