Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI), the most advanced form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD), is the comorbidity primarily responsible for major lower-limb amputations, particularly for diabetic patients. Autologous cell therapy has been the focus of efforts over the past 20 years to create non-interventional therapeutic options for no-option CLTI to improve limb perfusion and wound healing. Among the different available techniques, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC) appear to be the most promising autologous cell therapy due to physio-pathological considerations and clinical evidence, which will be discussed in this review.

This paper delves into the current state of knowledge surrounding electronic cigarettes, exploring the gap between the perceived safety of e-liquids and the emerging evidence of their harmful effects when inhaled.

As microRNAs (miRNA) regulate almost all physiopathological activities in the human body, miRNA therapeutics that deliver miRNA regulators have attracted considerable attention in the field of nucleic acid drug development. The use of tetrahedral DNA nanostructures to deliver miRNA regulators is promising because of their simple fabrication, enhanced cell entry, effective tissue penetration, biocompatibility and functional editability. This protocol extension builds on our previous protocol for the use of tetrahedral DNA nanostructures and was designed to establish an updated bioswitchable delivery system (BDS) for achieving controlled cargo loading and release.

Skin homeostasis is predominantly compromised by exposure to UV-B irradiation, leading to several physiopathological processes at cellular and tissue levels that deteriorate skin function and integrity. The current study investigated the photo-protective role of seabuckthorn fruit pulp (SBT) extract against UV-B-induced damage in primary human skin fibroblasts (HDFs) and Balb/C mice skin. We subjected HDFs and Balb/C mice to UV-B irradiation and measured multiple cellular damage indicators.
