Background: To provide a reference for clinical selection of collagen membranes by analyzing the properties of three kinds of collagen membranes widely used in clinics: Bio-Gide membrane from porcine dermis (PD), Heal-All membrane from bovine dermis (BD), and Lyoplant membrane from bovine pericardium (BP).
Methods: The barrier function of three kinds of collagen membranes were evaluated by testing the surface morphology, mechanical properties, hydrophilicity, and degradation rate of collagen membranes in collagenase and artificial saliva. In addition, the bioactivity of each collagen membrane as well as the proliferation and osteogenesis of MC3T3-E1 cells were evaluated. Mass spectrometry was also used to analyze the degradation products.
Results: The BP membrane had the highest tensile strength and Young's modulus as well as the largest water contact angle. The PD membrane exhibited the highest elongation at break, the smallest water contact angle, and the lowest degradation weight loss. The BD membrane had the highest degradation weight loss, the highest number of proteins in its degradation product, the strongest effect on the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells, and the highest expression level of osteogenic genes.
Conclusions: The PD membrane is the best choice for shaping and maintenance time, while the BD membrane is good for osteogenesis, and the BP membrane is suitable for spatial maintenance. To meet the clinical requirements of guided bone regeneration, using two different kinds of collagen membranes concurrently to exert their respective advantages is an option worth considering.

Osteoporosis (OP) is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by decreased bone mineral density and a heightened risk of fractures. Therapies for OP have primarily focused on balancing bone formation and bone resorption, but enhancing the remineralization of osteoporotic bone is also a key strategy for effective repair. Recent insights into biomineralization mechanisms have highlighted the essential role of mineral-containing extracellular vesicles (EVs) secreted by osteoblasts in promoting bone marrow mesenchymal stromal/stem cell (BMSC) differentiation and initiating matrix mineralization.

Extracellular matrix (ECM)-based small-diameter vascular grafts (SDVGs, inner diameter (ID) < 6 mm) hold great promise for clinical applications. However, existing ECM-based SDVGs suffer from limited donor availability, complex purification, high cost, and insufficient mechanical properties. SDVGs with ECM-like structure and function, and good mechanical properties were rapidly prepared by optimizing common materials and preparation, which can improve their clinical prospects.

Cardiac fibrosis characterized by aberrant activation of cardiac fibroblasts impairs cardiac contractile and diastolic functions, inducing the progression of the disease towards its terminal phase, resulting in the onset of heart failure. Therefore, the inhibition of cardiac fibrosis has become a promising treatment for cardiac diseases. The ovarian follicle-stimulating hormone folliculin (FLCN) plays a significant role in various biological processes, such as lysosome function, mitochondrial synthesis, angiogenesis, ciliogenesis and autophagy.

Spread through air spaces (STAS) is a histological finding of lung tumours where tumour cells exist within the air space of the lung parenchyma beyond the margin of the main tumour. Although STAS is an important prognostic factor, the pathobiology of STAS remains unclear. Here, we investigated the mechanism of STAS by analysing the relationship between STAS and polarity switching in vivo and in vitro.

The anatomical, histological, and histochemical characteristics of the foregut (FG), midgut (MG), and hindgut (HG), as well as their alterations during the ovarian cycle in female prawns, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, were investigated. The esophagus (ESO), cardia (CD), and pylorus (PY) are the main components of the FG. An epithelium (Ep) with thick cuticle (Cu) layers lining the ESO, and the ESO is encircled by the ESO glands.
