Background And Aims: Lackluster results from recently completed gene therapy clinical trials of VEGF-A delivered by viral vectors have heightened the need to develop alternative delivery strategies. This study aims to demonstrate the pre-clinical efficacy and safety of extracellular vesicles (EVs) loaded with VEGF-A mRNA for the treatment of ischaemic vascular disease.
Methods: After encapsulation of full-length VEGF-A mRNA into fibroblast-derived EVs via cellular nanoporation (CNP), collected VEGF-A EVs were delivered into mouse models of ischaemic injury.

Background And Objectives: The study aims to elucidate the initial results and methodologies employed in utilizing a recently introduced single-port (SP) robotic surgical system for the management for benign and malignant gynecological disorders.
Methods: A total of 33 patients with benign or malignant gynecologic conditions between 2022 and 2024 were included, all patients underwent SP robotic surgery.
Results: A total of 33 patients were successfully enrolled.

Background and objectives The persistent nature of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) is mainly attributable to compromised wound healing mechanisms, which are aggravated due to poor blood flow, neuropathy, and infection. Growth factors have become essential agents in the treatment of DFUs, serving as primary mediators that enhance wound healing through the stimulation of cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. This prospective open-label, randomised, comparative, multi-centre, investigator-initiated study compared the safety and effectiveness of adjuvant therapy with topical application of autologous growth factor concentrate (AGFC) using the Healrex therapy kit (Wockhardt, India) versus standard of care (SoC) in DFUs.

Chronic leg wounds represent a major burden of disease worldwide, costing health care systems billions of dollars each year. Aside from the financial implications, they also impose a significant physical and psychosocial burden on the patient, their relatives and/or carers, and the community. Whilst measures such as maintenance of wound hygiene, debridement, dressings and compression are the current standard of care, complete healing is not always achievable and ulcer recurrence is common.

Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common lethal tumor among women in the world. FOXM1 is a transcription factor implicated in the initiation and progression of ovarian cancer by regulating key oncogenic genes. The role of regulatory regions in regulating the expression of FOXM1 in ovarian cancer is not completely clarified.
