Published: October 2023

Poor wound healing on the face and neck can lead to significant morbidity and dissatisfaction in facial plastic surgery. With current advances in wound healing management and commercially available biologic and tissue-engineered products, there are several options available to optimize acute wound healing and treat delayed or chronic wounds. This article summarizes some of the key principals and recent developments in wound healing research in addition to potential future advancements in the field of soft tissue wound healing.

Burn wounds are challenging to treat due to considerable tissue damage and fluid loss. Creating wound dressings from natural and biological materials makes it possible to treat wounds and promote rapid epithelialization to speed healing and restore skin function. As a result, the ability of a collagen scaffold (Col) made from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and putative bioactive phytochemical components from a Sargassum glaucescens (S.

O-linked N-acetylglucosamine transferase (OGT)-catalyzed O-linked N-acetylglucosamine glycosylation (O-GlcNAcylation) is closely associated with diabetes progression. This study aims to investigate the mechanism of OGT in regulating endothelial dysfunction in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Expressions of OGT, O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc), enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), and HEK27me3 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and GDM-derived HUVECs (GDM-HUVECs) were assessed by western blot.

Centre for Brain Research, Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.

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.

Background: Amyloid-beta (Aβ) deposition is a key pathological characteristic of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Microglia serves as a crucial system responsible for clearing Aβ. Activated microglia migrate towards Aβ deposits, engulf them, and breakdown Aβ through cathepsins within the lysosome.

John P. Hussman Institute for Human Genomics, Miller School of Medicine, Miami, FL, USA.

Background: We identified the missense variant Ser1038Cys (rs377155188) in the tetratricopeptide repeat domain 3 (TTC3) gene that segregate in a non-Hispanic white late onset Alzheimer disease (LOAD) family. This variant is predicted to be deleterious and extremely rare (MAF<0.01%).
