Due to resistance to common antibiotics, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections pose a significant threat to human health. In this study, we developed an injectable, adhesive, and biocompatible hydrogel with multiple functions. Specifically, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) crosslinked with hyaluronic acid (HA) forms the primary framework of the hydrogel.

Biomimetic natural biomaterial (BNBM) nanocomposite scaffolds for bone replacement can reduce the rate of implant failure and the associated risks of post-surgical complications for patients. Traditional bone implants, like allografts, and autografts, have limitations, such as donor site morbidity and potential patient inflammation. Over two million bone transplant procedures are performed yearly, and success varies depending on the material used.

(1) Background: A free gingival graft (FGG) is a common technique used to reconstruct or enhance the area of keratinized mucosa, while a connective tissue graft (CTG) is utilized to boost soft tissue thickness, thereby promoting stability in interproximal marginal bone levels. Most reported complications following FGG procedure are associated with the donor site. In addition to a painful, open wound in the palate, the most frequent complications linked to FGG harvesting include excessive bleeding, postoperative bone exposure, and recurrent herpes lesions.

Background: Vitamin A, or retinol, is one of the most effective antiaging molecules, but it presents issues with photo-sensitivity and irritation. Alternatives are emerging, but have so far been less effective.
Objective: Here, we present a Silibum marianum extract (SME) as a retinol-like ingredient providing both safety and efficacy.

Background: Novel circulating markers for the non-invasive staging of chronic liver disease (CLD) are in high demand. Although underutilized, extracellular matrix (ECM) components offer significant diagnostic potential. This study evaluates ECM-related markers in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-positive patients across varying fibrosis stages.
