Curcumin grafted hyaluronic acid modified pullulan polymers (Cur-HA-SPu) by chemical conjugation was designed and prepared, and its film may be used to accelerate wound healing and help to fight infection. The synthesis of Cur-HA-SPu polymer was characterized by FT-IR, H NMR and DSC. Cur-HA-SPu film has a higher swelling ratio than that of HA-SPu film. Moreover, the good biocompatibility of Cur-HA-SPu polymer was confirmed by skin irritation, cytotoxicity and hemolysis tests. Compared to Cur, the MTT and proliferation test carried out in L929 cells revealed that Cur-HA-SPu polymer showed no cytotoxicity and enhanced cell proliferation. Cur-HA-SPu polymer exhibited a certain bactericidal activity against E. coli and S. aureus. Furthermore, the materials showed antioxidant activity when DPPH method determined. Wound healing study using wistar rat model demonstrated that Cur-HA-SPu film obtained better wound healing result than that of HA-SPu film or natural healing. The above results suggest that Cur-HA-SPu film is a promising and safety formulation for accelerating skin wound healing.

Enhanced post-thaw functional characteristics of cryopreserved caprine dermal fibroblasts through adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins.
Mol Biol Rep
January 2025
Goat Genetics and Breeding Division, ICAR-Central Institute for Research On Goats, Makhdoom, Farah, Mathura, 281 122, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Background: Extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins play a crucial role in regulating the biological properties of adherent cells. For cryopreserved fibroblasts, a favourable ECM environment can help restore their natural morphology and function more rapidly, minimizing post-thaw stress responses.
Methods And Results: This study explored the functional responses of cryopreserved enriched caprine adult dermal fibroblast (cadFibroblast) cells to structural [collagen-IV and rat tail collagen (RTC)] and adhesion ECM proteins (laminin, fibronectin, and vitronectin) under in vitro culture conditions.
Treatment of a collapse fracture of the anterolateral tibial plateau with a lateral locking plate and the Jail screw technique.

Background: To explore the advantages of a lateral tibial locking plate combined with Jail screw fixation in the treatment of anterolateral tibial plateau collapse fracture (ATPCF).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with ATPCFs admitted to our hospital from February 2019 to February 2023. Twenty-six patients were successfully included, including 15 males and 11 females, with an average age of 58.

Department of Orthopaedics, the 960th Hospital of PLA, 25 shifan Road, Tianqiao District, Jinan, Shandong, 250031, China.
Background: One of the common complications in spinal surgery patients is deep surgical site infections (SSIs). Deep SSIs refer to infections that involve the deeper soft tissues of the incision, such as the fascia and muscle layers. This complication can lead to prolonged hospitalization, repeated surgeries, and even life-threatening conditions.

Diabetic foot wounds (DFW) are notoriously difficult to treat owing to poor vascularity, delayed healing and higher rates of infection. Human-derived acellular dermal matrices (ADM) have been used in DFW treatment, utilizing a matrix scaffold for new tissue generation. We investigate the efficacy of a micronized injectable human-derived ADM in the treatment of DFW.
