Infected diabetic wound (DW) presents a prolonged and challenging healing process within the field of regenerative medicine. The effectiveness of conventional drug therapies is hindered by their limited ability to reach deep tissues and promote adequate wound healing rates. Therefore, there is an imperative to develop drug delivery systems that can penetrate deep tissues while exhibiting multifunctional properties to expedite wound healing. In this study, w e devised a soluble microneedle (MN) patch made of γ-PGA, featuring multiple arrays, which w as loaded with core-shell structured nanoparticles (NPs) known as Ag@MSN@CeO, to enhance the healing of infected DWs. The NP comprises a cerium dioxide (CeO) core with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, a mesoporous silica NP (MSN) shell with angiogenic characteristics, and an outermost layer doped with Ag to combat bacterial infections. W e demonstrated that the MN platform loaded with Ag@MSN@CeO successfully penetrated deep tissues for effective drug delivery. These MN tips induced the formation of multiple regenerative sites at various points, leading to antibacterial, reactive oxygen species-lowering, macrophage ecological niche-regulating, vascular regeneration-promoting, and collagen deposition-promoting effects, thus significantly expediting the healing process of infected DWs. Considering these findings, the multifunctional MN@Ag@MSN@CeO patch exhibits substantial potential for clinical applications in the treatment of infected DW.

Cisplatin, a platinum-based chemotherapeutic agent, can be used to treat cervical cancer (CC), but cisplatin resistance is increased during the cisplatin treatment. Long non-coding RNA PGM5-AS1 reportedly participates in CC tumorigenesis; however, its role in CC patients with cisplatin resistance has not been revealed. The present aimed to examine the role of PGM5-AS1 in modulating cisplatin resistance in CC.

Chronic complete spinal cord injury (SCI) is difficult to treat because of scar formation and cavitary lesions. While human iPS cell-derived neural stem/progenitor cell (hNS/PC) therapy shows promise, its efficacy is limited without the structural support needed to address cavitary lesions. Our study investigated a combined approach involving surgical scar resection, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) hydrogel as a scaffold, and hNS/PC transplantation.

To develop and validate a nomogram for predicting the risk of adverse events (intraoperative massive haemorrhage or retained products of conception) associated with the termination of Caesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). Data were retrospectively collected from patients diagnosed with CSP who underwent Dilation and Curettage (D&C) at two hospitals. This data was divided into internal and external cohorts for analysis.

Introduction: Continued interest in the optimization of recovery in aesthetics has led to the exploration of adjunctive therapies. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) serves as one such therapy that may have an impact in this field. HBOT is hypothesized to improve ischemia, reduce swelling, and minimize secondary hypoxic tissue damage.

To investigate CHD1L's impacts and molecular processes in hypoxic cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. Monoclonal proliferation assays and CCK-8 were used to detect the proliferation capacity of A431 cells and Colon16 cells; wound healing experiments and Transwell assays were used to examine the migration and invasion capacity of A431 cells and Colon16 cells; angiogenesis experiments were conducted to assess the influence of A431 cells on angiogenesis; a nude mouse tumor xenograft experiment and HE staining were utilized to evaluate the impact of CHD1L on the progression of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma; western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression of p-PI3K, p-AKT, and PD-L1 in A431 cells, as well as CD9, TSG101, PD-L1 in exosomes, and CD206, Arginase-1, iNOS, IL-1β, p-AKT, p-mTOR, VEGF, COX-2, MMP2, MMP9, p-ERK1/2 in tumor-associated macrophages. Under hypoxic conditions, CHD1L promoted the proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma.
