Background: Hypertrophic scars (HS) are common pathologic processes emerged during wound-healing process. The receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIP) might participate in keloid formation.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate Necrostatin-1 (Nec-1), a RIP1/RIP3 inhibitor, in the formation of hypertrophic scar.

Methods: Human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (HSF) were extracted from patients with hypertrophic scar. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) was performed to induce wound-healing process including cell proliferation (CCK-8, Flow cytometry, and Western blot), migration (Transwell assay, Western blot), collagen production (Western blot), and extracellular matrix dysfunction (Western blotting and immunofluorescence).

Results: Our results reported that Nec-1 inhibited TGF-β1-induced cell proliferation and promoted G0/G1 phase arrest in HSF. In addition, Nec-1 attenuated TGF-β1-induced cell migration and inhibited the expression of MMP2 and MMP9 in TGF-β1-induced HSF. Besides, Nec-1 also reduced TGF-β1-induced collagen production and α-smooth muscle actin expression in HSF.

Conclusions: The present data in this study showed the potential role of Nec-1 as a novel treatment for HS.

Background: Vascular Dementia (VaD) is the second most prevalent cause of dementia, arising from the blockage of blood vessels in the brain. One event responsible for the blockage or narrowing of small blood vessels is transient ischemic attack (TIA), and these changes resolve within 24 hours in humans. The molecular mechanism underlying these changes in recovery in small vessels still needs to be investigated.

Magnetic Nanoactuator-Protein Fiber Coated Hydrogel Dressing for Well-Balanced Skin Wound Healing and Tissue Regeneration.

Despite significant progress in skin wound healing, it is still a challenge to construct multifunctional bioactive dressings based on a highly aligned protein fiber coated hydrogel matrix for antifibrosis skin wound regeneration that is indistinguishable to native skin. In this study, a "dual-wheel-driven" strategy is adopted to modify the surface of methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) hydrogel with highly aligned magnetic nanocomposites-protein fiber assemblies (MPF) consisting of photothermal responsive antibacteria superparamagnetic nanocomposites-fibrinogen (Fg) complexes as the building blocks. Whole-phase healing properties of the modified hydrogel dressing, GelMA-MPF (GMPF), stem from the integration of Fg protein with RGD peptide activity decorated on the surface of the antibacterial magnetic nanoactuator, facilitating facile and reproducible dressing preparation by self-assembly and involving biochemical, morphological, and biophysical cues.

Introduction: Different Guided Tissue Regeneration (GTR) procedures, such as membranes, bone substitute materials, and Autologous Platelet Concentrates (APCs), have been applied after surgical root canal treatment (SRCT), which produce different outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of regenerative procedures on the healing process following SRCT.

Methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane, and the Web of Science found Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs) published until February 25, 2024.

Collective cell migration is critical for morphogenesis, homeostasis, and wound healing. Migrating mesenchymal cells form tissues that shape the body's organs. We developed a powerful model, exploring how nascent myotubes migrate onto the testis during pupal development, forming the muscles ensheathing it and creating its characteristic spiral shape.

HOXD13, a member of the homeobox gene family, plays a critical role in developmental processes and has been implicated in various malignancies, including pancreatic cancer and glioma. However, its role in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) remains poorly understood. This study aimed to elucidate the potential of HOXD13 as a diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target for OSCC.
