The goal of this study was to develop and characterize a cell line from the caudal fin tissue of zebrafish and also its application as an in vitro model to study the effect of H O in wound healing. Fibroblastic cell line was developed using explant culture method from caudal fin tissue of zebrafish and characterized. This cell line was named as DrF cell line. The DrF cells treated with 0-10 µM/ml H O were tested for viability, proliferation and motility by MTT assay, trypan blue assay and chemotaxis assay, respectively. Among the different concentrations of H O , 4 µM was found to be nontoxic to study cell migration in in vitro scratch wound assay. Furthermore, the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and chemokine receptor (CXCR4) genes was carried by qPCR. The cell survival, proliferation and migration were extremely enriched at 4 µM level of H O . We observed accelerated wound closure in DrF cells treated with H O The qPCR results indicated that H O markedly up-regulated mRNA expression of PCNA and CXCR4. The findings from our study suggest that H O at low levels promotes cell survival, proliferation, migration and wound healing in DrF cells.

Open wounds are one of the concerns of modern medicine. Early on, before the wound has closed, bacteria can easily enter, leading to bacterial infections. Excipients with antimicrobial effects can greatly facilitate the wound healing process.

Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) are rich in growth factors and have significant potential for facilitating tissue repair and regeneration. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to assess the efficacy of PEVs in treating diabetic wounds. To assess the efficacy and safety of PEVs in treating diabetic wounds, we conducted a systematic review of several databases and performed a meta-analysis using a random effects model.

Background: The periosteum is the main organ responsible for bone regeneration. Vascularized Periosteal Grafts (VPG) have demonstrated exceptional efficacy and speed in facilitating bone union among children with challenging bone healing conditions. Despite their promising results, the overall impact of these interventions has yet to be comprehensively evaluated through systematic review.
