This study aimed to assess the efficacy of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-transfected adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC) transplantation in the injured vocal folds (VFs) of canines. A lentiviral vector encoding HGF was successfully produced via Gateway cloning, which was used to infect ADSCs. Four weeks after transoral laser microsurgery (type II) with CO laser, the beagles of each group were injected with HGF-transfected ADSCs or uninfected ADSCs into VFs. The results showed that the retention of HGF-transfected ADSCs in the VFs persisted about three months post-injection. The VFs in the HGF-transfected ADSCs group exhibited a closer-to-normal structure with less collagen deposition and higher amounts of hyaluronic acid (HA) in the third month. The short microvilli in the HGF-transfected ADSCs group showed a dense and uniform distribution. These results revealed that HGF-transfected ADSC is a potential treatment option for injured VFs.

To investigate the effects and mechanism of exosomes from hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-modified human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) on full-thickness skin defect wounds in diabetic mice. The experimental study method was adopted. Discarded adipose tissue of 3 healthy females (10-25 years old) who underwent abdominal surgery in the Department of Plastic Surgery of First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from February to May 2021 was collected, and primary ADSCs were obtained by collagenase digestion method and cultured for 7 days.

To investigate the effects and mechanism of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-modified human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) on the wound healing of full-thickness skin defects in diabetic rats. The experimental research method was adopted. The discarded abdominal adipose tissue was collected from a 35-year-old healthy female who underwent abdominal liposuction in the Department of Plastic Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University in December 2019.
