Connective tissue dysplasia (CTD) is an urgent problem, especially in young and employable people. Damage to cardiovascular system and, in particular, aorta is predominant factor determining the incidence of various complications and mortality in patients with CTD. The authors report surgical treatment of aortic hypoplasia in an adolescent patient with connective tissue dysplasia syndrome and combined deficiency of coagulation factors.

Hypertrophic scar (HS) is a common fibroproliferative disorders with no fully effective treatments. The conversion of fibroblasts to myofibroblasts is known to play a critical role in HS formation, making it essential to identify molecules that promote myofibroblast dedifferentiation and to elucidate their underlying mechanisms. In this study, we used comparative transcriptomics and single-cell sequencing to identify key molecules and pathways that mediate fibrosis and myofibroblast transdifferentiation.

Difficult-to-heal wounds management accounts for about 4% of healthcare costs, highlighting the need for innovative solutions. Extracellular signals drive cell proliferation during tissue regeneration, while epigenetic mechanisms regulate stem cell homeostasis, differentiation, and skin repair. Exploring epigenetic regulation in adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) holds promise for improving skin injury treatments.

Introduction: The infrapatellar fat pad and synovium are the sites of immune cell infiltration and the origin of proinflammation. Studies have shown that Hoffa's synovitis may be a sign of early-stage osteoarthritis (OA). However, there have been no effective interventions specifically for Hoffa's synovitis.

Cardiovascular disease is one of the foremost causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) identified as a significant risk factor for subsequent ischemic events. Elevated LDL-C contributes to vascular injury and fibrosis by upregulating the expression of connective tissue growth factor and collagen IV, which leads to endothelial cell dysfunction that initiates the process of atherosclerotic diseases. Currently, there is an absence of clear, risk-defined criteria to identify patients who are in greater needs for intensive LDL-C reduction, particularly with PCSK9 inhibitors.

Pelvic floor disorder (PFD) is a common gynecological disorder, and with the ageing of the population, PFD has a serious impact on the physical and mental health of patients and their quality of life. The most prominent of these are pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and urinary incontinence (UI), about which the etiology is still unclear, and it is urgent to explore their pathogenesis. Advances in genetics and epigenetics have provided new insights into the pathophysiology of PFD.
