The scavenging effect of 2,6-diisopropylphenol on hydroxy radicals produced by xanthine oxidase was assessed by evaluating the in vitro depolymerisation of hyaluronan in artificial synovial fluid by size-exclusion chromatography. After 1 hour, the number-average molecular weight of hyaluronan remained unchanged (100%) with 2,6-diisopropylphenol, whereas it dropped to 90% with methylprednisolone added, to 55% with the antioxidant 2,6-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol added, and to 10% of its initial value in the absence of scavenger.

Introduction: Owing to its high prevalence, colossal potential of chemoresistance, metastasis, and relapse, breast cancer (BC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related fatalities in women. Several treatments (eg, chemotherapy, surgery, radiations, hormonal therapy, etc.) are conventionally prescribed for the treatment of BC; however, these are associated with serious systemic aftermaths.

Cosmetic filler-induced hair loss: case series and literature review.

J Dermatolog Treat

December 2024

Department of Dermatology, Beijing TongRen Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.

Aim: To present three cases of filler-induced alopecia (FIA) and summarize the current knowledge of its clinical features, mechanisms and treatments.

Methods: In the first two cases, two females developed well-defined triangular patches of hair loss after hyaluronic acid (HA) injections, and received corticosteriod injections with topical 5% minoxidil. The third case described another female who experienced alopecia areata-like hair loss after autologous fat grafting, and received combined therapies including corticosteriod, 5% minoxidil and microneedling.

An antibacterial, antioxidant and hemostatic hydrogel accelerates infectious wound healing.

J Nanobiotechnology

January 2025

Department of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery, Xinqiao Hospital, Army Medical University, Chongqing, 400037, China.

Hydrogel drug-delivery system that can effectively load antibacterial drugs, realize the in-situ drug release in the microenvironment of wound infection to promote wound healing. In this study, a multifunctional hydrogel drug delivery system (HA@TA-Okra) was constructed through the integration of hyaluronic acid methacrylate (HAMA) matrix with tannic acid (TA) and okra extract. The composition and structural characteristics of HA@TA-Okra system and its unique advantages in the treatment of diverse wounds were systematically evaluated.

Purpose: Gastrostomy is the commonly used enteral feeding technology. The clinical risks caused by tube dislodgement and peristomal site infection are the common complications before complete tract maturation after gastrostomy. However, there is currently no relevant research to promote gastrostomy wound treatment and tract maturation.

The study aims to investigate an improved version of lipid nanocarriers (NLCs) (formulated with functional coconut butter and marula oil) by designing hyaluronic acid (HA) decorated NLC co-loaded with dual UVA (butyl methoxy dibenzoyl methane, BMDBM), UVB absorbers (ethyl-hexyl-salicylate, EHS) and a Raspberry rich polyphenols fraction (RPRF) for development of more natural NLC-based to-pical formulations. : Quality and quantitative attributes of classic- and HA-NLC have been assigned based on particle size, electrokinetic potential, encapsulation efficiency, spectroscopic characteristics, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. To establish the performance profile of antioxidant activity, release of active substances, sun blocking action, and photostability, in vitro studies were conducted.
