Abstract
The skin barrier is essential to prevent pathogenic invasion. When injury occurs, multiple biological pathways are promptly activated and wound repair processes are triggered. The effective healing of wounds is essential for survival, and dysfunction could result from aberrant wound repair. Preparation of many hydrogels, which involve the addition of growth/cell factors or mimic extracellular matrix (ECM) components, has not resulted in significant advances in tissue recovery. ECM contains a large number of biologically active molecules that activate a variety of cellular transduction pathways, which are essential for wound repair. Here, this work prepares hyaluronic acid-dopamine-thiourea (HA-DA-NCSN) hydrogels exhibiting ultrafast gelation in situ, following the methods of Xu et al., and subsequently designs a hydrogel containing ECM particles. In addition, the loaded ECM material, specifically decellularized ECM material, not only enhances the strength of the hydrogel network, but also delivers bioactive substances that make it a suitable platform for skin wound repair. The ECM hydrogel has great potential as an efficient bioactive wound dressing. This research suggests that this strategy is likely to improve skin wound closure in rat skin wound models.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The healing of bone defects is a serious challenge worldwide. One branch of dentistry deals with bone defects. Capsaicin has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and cholesterol-reducing effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of systemic capsaicin administered at different doses on bone healing. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 32 male wistar rats was used, their weight varying between 250 and 300 g. The rats were randomly divided into 4 groups of 8 rats each. The analyses served to evaluate the effect on healing of different doses of capsaicin and grafts. A significant increase was observed in the number of osteoblasts in the capsaicin-applied groups, compared with the control group. RESULTS The analyses served to evaluate the effect on healing of different doses of capsaicin and grafts. A significant increase was observed in the number of osteoblasts in the capsaicin-applied groups, compared with that of the control group. The inflammation scores showed a significant difference only in the control group and in the group administered with 50 mg/kg capsaicin (P=0.010). The osteoclast counts were significantly different between all groups. CONCLUSIONS As a result of the analyses, positive effects on bone healing were observed when capsaicin 0.25 mg/kg and 0.50 mg/kg was administered intraperitoneally. However, more studies are needed for more accurate information.

MICROSYSTEMS & NANOENGINEERING 2024; 10:68. [PMID: 38799404 PMCID: PMC11126623 DOI: 10.1038/s41378-024-00694-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have emerged as a promising approach for generating electricity and providing electrical stimuli in medical electronic devices. Despite their potential benefits, the clinical implementation of TENGs faces challenges such as skin compliance and a lack of comprehensive assessment regarding their biosafety and efficacy. Therefore, further research is imperative to overcome these limitations and unlock the full potential of TENGs in various biomedical applications. In this study, we present a flexible silk fibroin-based triboelectric nanogenerator (SFB-TENG) that features an on-skin substrate and is characterized by excellent skin compliance and air/water permeability. The range of electrical output generated by the SFB-TENG was shown to facilitate the migration and proliferation of Hy926, NIH-3T3 and RSC96 cells. However, apoptosis of fibroblast NIH-3T3 cells was observed when the output voltage increased to more than 20 V at a frequency of 2 Hz. In addition, the moderate electrical stimulation provided by the SFB-TENG promoted the cell proliferation cycle in Hy926 cells. This research highlights the efficacy of a TENG system featuring a flexible and skin-friendly design, as well as its safe operating conditions for use in biomedical applications. These findings position TENGs as highly promising candidates for practical applications in the field of tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) have been extensively investigated for their potential in nanomedicine. There is a significant level of enthusiasm about the potential of NPs to bring out a transformative impact on modern healthcare. NPs can serve as effective wound dressings or delivery vehicles due to their antibacterial and pro-wound-healing properties. Biopolymer-based NPs can be manufactured using various food-grade biopolymers, such as proteins, polysaccharides, and synthetic polymers, each offering distinct properties suitable for different applications which include collagen, polycaprolactone, chitosan, alginate, and polylactic acid, etc. Their biodegradable and biocompatible nature renders them ideal nanomaterials for applications in wound healing. Additionally, the nanofibers containing biopolymer-based NPs have shown excellent anti-bacterial and wound healing activity like silver NPs. These NPs represent a paradigm shift in wound healing therapies, offering targeted and personalized solutions for enhanced tissue regeneration and accelerated wound closure. The current review focuses on biopolymer NPs with their applications in wound healing.

Tissue Eng Regen Med 2024:10.1007/s13770-024-00644-2. [PMID: 38647955 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-024-00644-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we explored the potential of human adipose tissue-derived extracellular matrix (adECM) sheets augmented with crosslinked hyaluronic acid (HA) as advanced wound dressings. We aimed to enhance healing efficacy while optimizing cost efficiency. METHODS The adECM was processed from healthy donor tissue and combined with crosslinked HA to form ECM-HA sheets (Scaffiller, Medikan, Korea). In vitro experiments involved seeding adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) onto these sheets and assessing cell survival and cytokine production. In vivo testing utilized a rat wound model, comparing ECM-HA sheet with HA-based dressing and polyurethane foam dressing. Re-epithelialization and collagen deposition were examined through histopathological examinations, whereas immunohistochemistry was used to assess CD31, alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), and Tenascin C expression as contributing factors to wound healing. RESULTS Results indicated that ECM-HA sheets were produced efficiently, with enhanced growth factor production and ASC survival observed in vitro. In vivo, ECM-HA sheets demonstrated accelerated wound healing, evidenced by improved epithelialization, thicker dermis, increased collagen deposition, and enhanced vascularity. Notably, they exhibited reduced myofibroblast activity and increased expression of Tenascin C, suggesting a favorable healing environment. CONCLUSION ECM-HA sheets offer a promising approach for wound management, combining the benefits of adECM and HA. They present improved stability and cost-effectiveness while promoting essential aspects of wound healing such as angiogenesis and collagen formation. This study underscores the therapeutic potential of ECM-HA sheets in clinical applications aimed at facilitating wound repair.

Abstract
Background The nonenzymatic glycation of fibroblasts causes functional downregulation and behavioral disorders in the skin. Methods To investigate the effect of Inonotus obliquus on the nonenzymatic glycation of skin, we examined the inhibition of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) using four extraction methods: n-butanol, ethyl acetate, n-hexane and aqueous alcohol precipitation. The physical properties and chemical structure of the most effective, purified, crude I. obliquus polysaccharide (IOP) were examined. The effects of IOP on carboxymethyl lysine (CML) accumulation, inflammatory factor release, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, key extracellular matrix (ECM) protein (MMP 1, 2 and 9; FN-1, LM-5 and COL-1) mRNA expression, and cell survival, migration and adhesion were also examined via cellular assays. Results IOP is a polysaccharide with a molecular weight (Mw) of 2.396 × 104 (±6.626%) that is composed mainly of glucose, galactose, xylose, mannose and arabinose (29.094:21.705:14.857:9.375:7.709). In addition, a cellular antiglycation assay showed that IOP, which can promote ECM formation by inhibiting the accumulation of CML, inhibiting the release of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α), inhibiting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), inhibiting the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP-1\-2\-9), promoting the synthesis of ECMs (COL1, FN1, and LM5), and improving cellular dysfunction, had strong antiglycation activity at concentrations in the range of 6-24 μg/mL. Conclusion IOP effectively reduced the levels of inflammatory factors and reactive oxygen species produced by AGEs, further preventing the impairment of cell behavior (decreased migration and reduced cell adhesion) and preventing the downregulation of the expression of key extracellular matrix proteins induced by AGEs. The results indicate the potential application of IOP as an AGE inhibitor in skin care.

Abstract
For sustained and stable improvement of the diabetic wound microenvironment, a temperature-sensitive composite hydrogel (ZnDBs/HBC) composed of inorganic zinc mineralized diatom biosilica (ZnDBs) and hydroxybutyl chitosan (HBC) was developed. The interfacial anchoring effect between ZnDBs and HBC enhanced the mechanical strength of the hydrogel. The mechanical strength of the composite hydrogel containing 3 wt% ZnDBs was increased by nearly 2.3times. The hydrogel can be used as a carrier for sustained release of Zn2+ for at least 72 h. In diabetic rats models, ZnDBs/HBC composite hydrogel could accelerate the inflammatory process by regulating the expression of pro-inflammatory factor IL-6 and anti-inflammatory factor IL-10, and also promote tissue cell proliferation and collagen deposition, thereby restoring the normal healing process and accelerating wound healing. The wound contraction rate of the composite hydrogel group was more than 2 times that of the control group. Therefore, ZnDBs/HBC composite hydrogel has the potential to be used as a therapeutic dressing for diabetic chronic wounds.

Abstract
Diabetes affected 537 million adults in 2021, costing a total of USD 966 billion dollars in healthcare. One of the most common complications associated with diabetes corresponds to the development of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). DFUs affect around 15% of diabetic patients; these ulcers have impaired healing due to neuropathy, arterial disease, infection, and aberrant extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation, among other factors. The bioactive-glass-based materials discussed in this systematic review show promising results in accelerating diabetic wound healing. It can be concluded that the addition of BG is extremely valuable with regard to the wound healing rate and wound healing quality, since BG activates fibroblasts, enhances M1-to-M2 phenotype switching, induces angiogenesis, and initiates the formation of granulation tissue and re-epithelization of the wound. In addition, a higher density and deposition and better organization of collagen type III are seen. This systematic review was made using the PRISMA guideline and intends to contribute to the advancement of diabetic wound healing therapeutic strategies development by providing an overview of the materials currently being developed and their effect in diabetic wound healing in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
The altered behaviors and functions of pelvic floor fibroblasts are pathophysiological changes of pelvic organ prolapse (POP). Our previous study showed that advanced glycated end products (AGEs) accumulated in the pelvic tissues of POP and induced fibroblast apoptosis. The study was designed to investigate whether quercetin antagonize AGEs-induced apoptosis and functional inhibition of fibroblasts. The uptake of 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) was evaluated for cell proliferation. Flow cytometric analysis was applied for cell apoptosis. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) content was determined by the fluorescence of dichlorofluorescein (DCF). The contractility of fibroblasts was measured by collagen gel contraction assay. The expressions of extracellular matrix (ECM) related genes and the expression of miR-4429 and caspase-3 were quantified by qPCR. The expressions of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), serine-threonine kinase (Akt), and phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) were analyzed by Western Blot. The down-regulation of miR-4429 was achieved by cell transfection. Quercetin antagonized AGEs-induced apoptosis, proliferation inhibition, and ROS increase in fibroblasts. Quercetin did not alleviate AGEs-induced contractile impairment of fibroblasts. Quercetin reduced the gene expressions of lysyl oxidase like protein 1 (LOXL1)and matrix metallopeptidase 1 (MMP1), and increased the gene expressions of lysyl oxidase (LOX) and fibrillin 2 (FBN2) in fibroblasts. Quercetin reversed AGEs-induced upregulation of PTEN and downregulation of PI3K, P-Akt, and miR-4429 in fibroblasts. The inhibitory effect of quercetin on AGEs-induced fibroblast apoptosis was inhibited by downregulating the expression of miR-4429. In conclusion, quercetin antagonized AGEs-induced apoptosis and functional inhibition of fibroblasts from the prolapsed uterosacral ligament. And inhibiting AGEs-induced down-regulation of miR-4429/PTEN/PI3K/Akt pathway was the mechanism underlying the antagonistic effect of quercetin on AGEs-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
Studies have demonstrated the potent effects of polyphenols on cutaneous wound healing. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying polyphenol activity are incompletely understood. Herein, mice were experimentally wounded, intragastrically treated with four polyphenols, resveratrol, tea polyphenols, genistein, and quercetin; and monitored for 14 days. Resveratrol was the most effective compound, promoting wound healing starting at day 7 after wounding, by enhancing cell proliferation and reducing apoptosis and subsequently promoting epidermal and dermal repair, collagen synthesis and scar maturation. RNA sequencing was performed in control and resveratrol-treated tissues on day 7 after wounding. Resveratrol treatment upregulated 362 genes and downregulated 334 genes. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis showed that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were associated with different biological processes (keratinization, immunity, and inflammation), molecular functions (cytokine and chemokine activities), and cellular components (extracellular region and matrix). Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis indicated that DEGs were predominantly enriched in inflammatory and immunological pathways, including cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction, chemokine signaling, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling. These results show that resveratrol accelerates wound healing by promoting keratinization and dermal repair and attenuating immune and inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Dendrobium officinale Kinura et Migo (DOKM) has a variety of medicinal applications; however, its ability to promote wound healing has not been previously reported. The purpose of this study is to investigate the proliferative phase of the wound-healing effect of DOKM glycoprotein (DOKMG) in rats and to elucidate its mechanism of action in vitro. In the present study, the ointment mixture containing DOKMG was applied to the dorsal skin wounds of the full-thickness skin excision rat model, and the results showed that the wound healing speed was faster in the proliferative phase than vaseline. Histological analysis demonstrates that DOKMG promoted the re-epithelialization of wound skin. Immunofluorescence staining and quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays revealed that DOKMG promotes the secretion of Fibronectin and inhibits the secretion of Collagen IV during the granulation tissue formation period, indicating that DOKMG could accelerate the formation of granulation tissue by precisely regulating extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion. In addition, we demonstrated that DOKMG enhanced the migration and proliferation of fibroblast (3T6 cell) in two-dimensional trauma by regulating the secretion of ECM, via a mechanism that may implicate the AKT and JAK/STAT pathways under the control of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling. In summary, we have demonstrated that DOKMG promotes wound healing during the proliferative phase. Therefore, we suggest that DOKMG may have a potential therapeutic application for the treatment and management of cutaneous wounds.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a diverse group of compounds that are formed as a result of the non-enzymatic reaction between a reducing sugar such as glucose and the free NH2 groups of an amino acid in a protein or other biomolecule. The chemical reaction, by which these products are generated, is known as the Maillard reaction and occurs as a part of the body's normal metabolism. Such a reaction is enhanced during diabetes due to hyperglycemia, but it can also occur during the preparation, processing, and preservation of certain foods. Therefore, AGEs can also be obtained from the diet (d-AGE) and contribute to an increase of the total serum pool of these compounds. They have been implicated in a wide variety of pathological processes, mainly because of their ability to induce inflammatory responses and oxidative stress increase. They are extensively accumulated as a part of the normal aging, especially in tissues rich in long half-life proteins, which can compromise the physiology of these tissues. d-AGEs are abundant in diets rich in processed fats and sugars. This review is addressed to the current knowledge on these products and their impact on the immunomodulation of various mechanisms that may contribute to exacerbation of the diabetes pathophysiology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE . Aim: The purpose of the study was to identify the features of apoptotic and proliferative processes in experimental Staphylococcus aureus-infected radiation skin ulcer under conditions of photodynamic therapy and the use of platelet-rich plasma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and Methods: An experimental study was conducted on 95 six-month-old male rats of the WAG population, which were divided into three groups. Group 1 included 25 animals that were simulated a radiation ulcer of the skin in the thigh area with subsequent application to its surface on the 7th day after irradiation with 0.2 ml of a suspension of the Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923) reference strain (0.5 million microbial cells/cm2). Group 2 included 25 animals with Staphylococcus aureus-infected radiation skin ulcer, which were subjected to photodynamic therapy a day after infection. Group 3 included 45 animals with Staphylococcus aureus-infected radiation skin ulcers, which, 1 day after infection, received photodynamic therapy in the first half of the day, and in the second half of the day the periphery of the wound defect was injected with platelet-rich plasma. The material for the study was skin with underlying soft tissues from the area of radiation exposure. Histological, immunohistochemical, morphometric and statistical methods were used. RESULTS Results: In cases of simultaneous use of photodynamic therapy and platelet-rich plasma, compared with photodynamic therapy alone, the processes ofapoptosis and proliferation were more balanced, active, with a shift in the proliferative-apoptotic ratio towards proliferation processes and met the needs of the regenerative process. From the 10th to the 22nd day of the experiment these processes increased, which indicated active healing processes, that, during survey microscopy on the 22nd day, were manifested by the complete filling of the wound cavity with granulation and connective tissues with the presence of an epithelial layer on the surface of the regenerate. From the 22nd to the 45th day of the experiment, a decrease in the rate of regeneration was recorded, as evidenced by a decrease in the intensity of apoptotic and proliferative processes. The intensity of the latter was sufficient, which led to the healing of Staphylococcus aureus-infected radiation skin ulcer on the 45th day with complete restoration of the original structure of the skin. CONCLUSION Conclusions: Photodynamic therapy in combination with the use of platelet-rich plasma balancedly activates apoptotic and proliferative processes with a predominance of the latter in granulation and connective tissues filling the lumen of Staphylococcus aureus-infected radiation skin ulcer, which on the 45th day of the experiment leads to wound healing with complete restoration of the original structure of the skin.

Abstract
Skin wound healing is a physiological process that involves several cell types. Among them, endothelial cells are required for inflammation resolution and neo-angiogenesis, both necessary for tissue restoration after injury. Primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (C-HUVECs) are derived from the umbilical cord. When women develop gestational diabetes, chronic exposure to hyperglycemia induces epigenetic modifications in these cells (GD-HUVECs), leading to a permanent pro-inflammatory phenotype and impaired angiogenesis in contrast to control cells. Oleanolic acid (OA) is a bioactive triterpenoid known for its epithelial cell migration promotion stimulation and higher tensile strength of wounds. However, the potentially anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic properties of OA are still under investigation. We tested OA on C- and GD-HUVECs under inflammatory conditions induced by low levels of the inflammatory cytokine TNF-α. Reduced expression of adhesion molecules VCAM1, ICAM1, and SELE was obtained in OA-pre-treated C- and GD-HUVECs. Additionally, protein VCAM1 levels were also decreased by OA. Coherently, monocyte adhesion assays showed that a lower number of monocytes adhered to GD-HUVEC endothelium under OA pre-treatment when compared to untreated ones. It is noteworthy that OA improved angiogenesis parameters in both phenotypes, being especially remarkable in the case of GD-HUVECs, since OA strongly rescued their poor tube formation behavior. Moreover, endothelial cell migration was improved in C- and GD-HUVECs in scratch assays, an effect that was further confirmed by focal adhesion (FA) remodeling, revealed by paxillin staining on immunocytochemistry assays. Altogether, these results suggest that OA could be an emergent wound healing agent due to its capacity to rescue endothelial malfunction caused by hyperglycemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The blood supply of the tissue is very important in the acceleration of wound healing. Radiofrequency electromagnetic field (RF) and the pulsed magnetic field (PMF) increase vasodilation to contribute wound healing. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of RF and PMF on wound healing via hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (Hif-1α)/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) pathway. METHODS Forty-eight rats were divided into 4 groups as sham (wound created only), PMF (27.12 MHz, 12 times a day at 30-min intervals), RF (0.5 mT, continuously) and PMF + RF groups. Wounds were created at 1.5 × 1.5 cm size to the dorsal region, and animals were put into unit. Six animals were killed on days 4 and 7; wound tissues were collected for histopathological, immunohistochemical as collagen-4, cytokeratin, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) staining and Hif-1α/eNOS/VEGF expressions. RESULTS On day 4, in addition to increasing VEGF and MMP-9 stainings, connection between intact tissue and scar tissue which was stronger in the RF- and PMF-applied groups was observed. On day 7, epithelization started; inflammatory reaction decreased; collagen production, cytokeratin, VEGF and MMP-9 expression enhanced, especially in the RF + PMF applied group. eNOS, Hif-1α and VEGF expression levels were found to be significantly highest in both days of RF + PMF-applied group. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that both in vitro RF and PMF applications can cause notable changes in factors that are required for tissue repair on wound healing such as epithelization, connective tissue formation, collagen production and angiogenesis via vasodilatory Hif-1α/eNOS pathway and VEGF signaling.

Abstract
Lysozyme, a natural antibacterial enzyme protein, possesses the ability to dissolve the cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria, demonstrating broad-spectrum antibacterial activity. Despite its significant potential in treating wound infections and promoting wound healing, its widespread clinical application has yet to be realized. Current research is primarily focused on carrier-based delivery systems for lysozyme. In this review, we discuss four delivery systems that can be employed for lysozyme in wound healing treatment, specifically hydrogels, nanofilms, electrospun fibrous membranes, and modified-lysozyme composite systems. These systems not only enhance the stability of lysozyme but also enable its controlled and sustained release at wound sites, potentially overcoming some of the challenges associated with its direct application. Lastly, we delve into the perspectives and challenges related to the use of these delivery systems, hoping to spur further research and innovation in this promising field.

Abstract
This review summarizes the recent knowledge of the cellular and molecular processes that occur during wound healing. However, these biological mechanisms have yet to be defined in detail; this is demonstrated by the fact that alterations of events to pathological states, such as keloids, consisting of the excessive formation of scars, have consequences yet to be defined in detail. Attention is also dedicated to new therapies proposed for these kinds of pathologies. Awareness of these scientific problems is important for experts of various disciplines who are confronted with these kinds of presentations daily.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic wounds are a significant health problem with devastating consequences for patients' physical, social, and mental health, increasing healthcare systems' costs. Their prolonged healing times, economic burden, diminished quality of life, increased infection risk, and impact on patients' mobility and functionality make them a major concern for healthcare professionals. PURPOSE This review offers a multi-perspective analysis of the medical literature focusing on chronic wound management. METHODS USED We evaluated 48 articles from the last 21 years registered in the MEDLINE and Global Health databases. The articles included in our study had a minimum of 20 citations, patients > 18 years old, and focused on chronic, complex, and hard-to-heal wounds. Extracted data were summarized into a narrative synthesis using the same health-related quality of life instrument. RESULTS We evaluated the efficacy of existing wound care therapies from classical methods to modern concepts, and wound care products to regenerative medicine that uses a patient's pluripotent stem cells and growth factors. Regenerative medicine and stem cell therapies, biologic dressings and scaffolds, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), electrical stimulation, topical growth factors and cytokines, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), advanced wound dressings, artificial intelligence (AI), and digital wound management are all part of the new arsenal of wound healing. CONCLUSION Periodic medical evaluation and proper use of modern wound care therapies, including the use of plasma-derived products [such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)] combined with proper systemic support (adequate protein levels, blood sugar, vitamins involved in tissue regeneration, etc.) are the key to a faster wound healing, and, with the help of AI, can reach the fastest healing rate possible.

Hwang JH, Kang Y, Park HJ, Kim S, Lee SH, Kim H, Nam SJ, Lim KM. Skin wound healing effects of (+)-syringaresinol from ginseng berry. J Ginseng Res 2023; 47:654-661. [PMID: 37720576 PMCID: PMC10499580 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgr.2023.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Revised: 01/22/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Ginseng has been used as a traditional medicine and functional cosmetic ingredients for many years. Recent studies have focused on the potential biological effects of the ginseng berry and its ingredients. (+)-Syringaresinol (SYR) is enriched in ginseng berry and its beneficial effects on the skin have been recently reported. However, little is known about the its effects on the wound healing process of skin. Methods Here, we evaluated the skin wound healing effect of (+)-SYR using the human fibroblast Hs68 cell and ex vivo pig and human skin tissue model. Scratch wound test and hydrogen peroxide (HPO) induce chemical wound model were employed. Results (+)-SYR promoted the migration and proliferation of Hs68 cells without significant cytotoxicity at the tested concentrations. Especially, in ex vivo pig and human skin tissue, HPO-induced chemical wound was recovered almost completely by (+)-SYR. In line with the finding in Hs68, the protein expression levels of TGF-β and PCNA, a proliferation marker were increased, demonstrating the beneficial effects of (+)-SYR on skin wound repair. Conclusion Collectively, we demonstrated that (+)-SYR from ginseng berry, can enhance the wound healing effect by accelerating cell proliferation and skin regeneration, suggesting the potential utility of (+)-SYR for skin wound repair.

Abstract
The most common socioeconomic healthcare issues in clinical are burns, surgical incisions and other skin injuries. Skin lesion healing can be achieved with nanomedicines and other drug application techniques. This study developed a nano-spray based on cross-linked amorphous calcium peroxide (CaO2) nanoparticles of polyacrylic acid (PAA) for treating skin wounds (PAA-CaO2 nanoparticles). CaO2 serves as a 'drug' precursor, steadily and continuously releasing calcium ions (Ca2+) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) under mildly acidic conditions, while PAA-CaO2 nanoparticles exhibited good spray behavior in aqueous form. Tests demonstrated that PAA-CaO2 nanoparticles exhibited low cytotoxicity and allowed L929 cells proliferation and migration in vitro. The effectiveness of PAA-CaO2 nanoparticles in promoting wound healing and inhibiting bacterial growth in vivo was assessed in SD rats using full-thickness skin defect and Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus)-infected wound models based thereon. The results revealed that PAA-CaO2 nanoparticles demonstrated significant advantages in both aspects. Notably, the infected rats' skin defects healed in 12 days. The benefits are linked to the functional role of Ca2+ coalesces with H2O2 as known antibacterial and healing-promoted agents. Therefore, we developed nanoscale PAA-CaO2 sprays to prevent bacterial development and heal skin lesions.

Abstract
Background The application of blood concentrates has gained popularity in dentistry in recent years. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) has been discussed frequently due to a high content of growth factors and the option of chair-side manufacturing in a simple centrifugation process. PRF is free from adjuvants and inexpensive to produce. The number of studies reporting beneficial effects of PRF in various clinical applications such as alveolar ridge preservation, sinus floor elevation, management and prevention of medical-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, third molar extractions, and guided bone regeneration in dentistry has increased recently. However, to date, neither clinical recommendations nor guidelines are available. The present narrative review aims to summarize the level of evidence on the clinical application of PRF within the field of oral surgery and implantology. Summary A literature search in Pubmed and Medline has identified 34 articles as a basis for this narrative review. The effectiveness of the clinical application of PRF has been analyzed for five indications within dentistry: medical-related osteonecrosis of the jaw, wisdom tooth extraction, guided bone regeneration, sinus floor elevation, and alveolar ridge preservation. The amount of data for third molar extractions, socket preservation, and guided bone regeneration is extensive. Less data were available for the use of PRF in combination with sinus floor elevations. There is a lack of studies with scientific evidence on PRF and medical-related osteonecrosis of the jaw; however, studies positively impact patient-related outcome measures. Most studies report on beneficial effects when PRF is additionally applied in intrabony defects. There is no evidence of the positive effects of PRF combined with bone graft materials during sinus floor elevation. However, some benefits are reported with PRF as a sole filling material. Key Messages Many recently published studies show the positive clinical impact of PRF. Yet, further research is needed to ensure the validity of the evidence.

Abstract
Wound healing has long been a complex problem, especially in chronic wounds. Although debridement, skin grafting, and antimicrobial dressings have been used to treat chronic wounds, their treatment period is long, expensive, and has specific rejection reactions. The poor treatment results of traditional methods have caused psychological stress to patients and a substantial economic burden to society. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale vesicles secreted by cells. They play an essential role in intercellular communication. Numerous studies have confirmed that stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (SC-EVs) can inhibit overactive inflammation, induce angiogenesis, promote re-epithelization, and reduce scar formation. Therefore, SC-EVs are expected to be a novel cell-free strategy for chronic wound treatment. We first summarize the pathological factors that hinder wound healing and discuss how SC-EVs accelerate chronic wound repair. And then, we also compare the advantages and disadvantages of different SC-EVs for chronic wound treatment. Finally, we discuss the limitations of SC-EVs usage and provide new thoughts for future SC-EVs research in chronic wound treatment.

Abstract
Wound healing is a multi-factorial response to tissue injury, aiming to restore tissue continuity. Numerous recent experimental and clinical studies clearly indicate that probiotics are applied topically to promote the wound-healing process. However, the precise mechanism by which they contribute to healing is not yet clear. Each strain appears to exert a distinctive, even multi-factorial action on different phases of the healing process. Given that a multi-probiotic formula exerts better results than a single strain, the pharmaceutical industry has embarked on a race for the production of a formulation containing a combination of probiotics capable of playing a role in all the phases of the healing process. Hence, the object of this review is to describe what is known to date of the distinctive mechanisms of each of the most studied probiotic strains in order to further facilitate research toward the development of combinations of strains and doses, covering the whole spectrum of healing. Eleven probiotic species have been analyzed, the only criterion of inclusion being a minimum of two published research articles.

Abstract
In this paper, we review and analyze the commonly available wound healing models reported in the literature and discuss their advantages and issues, considering their relevance and translational potential to humans. Our analysis includes different in vitro and in silico as well as in vivo models and experimental techniques. We further explore the new technologies in the study of wound healing to provide an all encompassing review of the most efficient ways to proceed with wound healing experiments. We revealed that there is not one model of wound healing that is superior and can give translatable results to human research. Rather, there are many different models that have specific uses for studying certain processes or stages of wound healing. Our analysis suggests that when performing an experiment to assess stages of wound healing or different therapies to enhance healing, one must consider not only the species that will be used but also the type of model and how this can best replicate the physiology or pathophysiology in humans.

Abstract
A wound is an injury to the skin or damage to the body tissue. The healing process differs between various kinds of wounds. Treatment of hard-to-heal (chronic) wounds becomes challenging for healthcare practitioners, especially if patients have underlying health complications such as diabetes. Infection of wounds is another factor that interferes with the healing process and extends its duration. Active research is being conducted into the development of advanced wound dressing technologies. These wound dressings are intended to manage the exudate, reduce bacterial infection and speed up the healing process. Probiotics have been receiving much attention because of their potential application in the clinical field, especially in diagnostics and treatment strategies of various infectious and non-infectious diseases. The host immune-modulatory response and antimicrobial activity of probiotics are expanding their role in the development of improved wound dressing technology.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are characterized by a prolonged inflammation phase preventing the normal processes of wound healing and natural regeneration of the skin. To tackle this issue, electrospun nanofibers, inherently possessing a high surface-to-volume ratio and high porosity, are promising candidates for the design of anti-inflammatory drug delivery systems. In this study, we evaluated the ability of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) nanofibers of various chemical compositions to release ibuprofen for the potential treatment of chronic wounds. First, the electrospinning of poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) copolymers with different ethylene contents (32, 38 and 44 mol%) was optimized in DMSO. The morphology and surface properties of the membranes were investigated via state-of-the-art techniques and the influence of the ethylene content on the mechanical and thermal properties of each membrane was evaluated. Furthermore, the release kinetics of ibuprofen from the nanofibers in a physiological temperature range revealed that more ibuprofen was released at 37.5 °C than at 25 °C regardless of the ethylene content. Additionally, at 25 °C less drug was released when the ethylene content of the membranes increased. Finally, the scaffolds showed no cytotoxicity to normal human fibroblasts collectively paving the way for the design of electrospun based patches for the treatment of chronic wounds.

Abstract
The rising prevalence of diabetes mellitus brings with it a rise in the occurrence of several complications of the disease such as chronic non-healing wounds. Diabetics are more prone to developing chronic wounds due to complications like peripheral neuropathy, poor foot care, hyperglycaemia and peripheral vascular diseases. The aim of this review is to discuss the various imbalances in the cytokine environment of diabetic wounds and to explore the developments in their management with an emphasis on agents that may be used topically to aid the healing process of chronic wounds. A systematic search was conducted on Scopus, PubMed and Google Scholar and relevant articles were shortlisted. We conclude that increased blood sugar impairs most phases of wound healing in several ways. Supplementary therapy with either topical or systemic cytokines is shown to promote wound healing in a diabetic wound.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The E2F2 transcription factor can accelerate cell proliferation and wound healing. However, its mechanism of action in a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) remains unclear. Therefore, this study explores the influence of E2F2 on wound healing in DFU by examining cell division cycle-associated 7-like (CDCA7L) expression. METHODS CDCA7L and E2F2 expression in DFU tissues were analyzed with databases. CDCA7L and E2F2 expression were altered in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and spontaneously transformed human keratinocyte cell culture (HaCaT) cells. Cell viability, migration, colony formation, and angiogenesis were evaluated. Binding of E2F2 to the CDCA7L promoter was examined. Subsequently, a diabetes mellitus (DM) mouse model was established and treated with full-thickness excision followed by CDCA7L overexpression. Wound healing in these mice was observed and recorded, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and hematopoietic progenitor cell antigen CD34 (CD34) expression were determined. E2F2 and CDCA7L expression levels in cells and mice were evaluated. The expression of growth factors was tested. RESULTS CDCA7L expression was downregulated in DFU tissues and wound tissues from DM mice. Mechanistically, E2F2 bound to the CDCA7L promoter to upregulate CDCA7L expression. E2F2 overexpression enhanced viability, migration, and growth factor expression in HaCaT cells and HUVECs, and augmented HUVEC angiogenesis and HaCaT cell proliferation, which was nullified by silencing CDCA7L. In DM mice, CDCA7L overexpression facilitated wound healing and elevated the expression level of growth factors. CONCLUSIONS E2F2 facilitated cell proliferation and migration and fostered wound healing in DFU cells through binding to the CDCA7L promoter.

Abstract
Aims: This study aims to investigate the function of positive feedback loops involving noncoding RNA in diabetic wound healing. Methods: We developed a mouse diabetic wound model to confirm that hyperglycemia can impair wound healing. We also used an in vitro keratinocyte model in high-glucose conditions to investigate the mechanism of delayed wound healing. Results: MALAT1 was decreased in diabetic mouse wound tissue and can promote keratinocyte biological functions. MALAT1 could bind to miR-106a-5p to modulate the expression of ZNF148, a target gene of miR-106a-5p. Surprisingly, ZNF148 bound to a region in the MALAT1 promoter to stimulate gene expression. Conclusion: ZNF148-activated MALAT1 increases ZNF148 expression by competitively binding miR-106a-3p, generating a positive feedback loop that enhances keratinocyte function.

Abstract
Wound healing is a major problem in diabetic patients, and current treatments have been confronted with limited success. The present study examined the benefit of Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) derived from the human umbilical cord (UC) in wound healing in diabetic rats. Thirty days after inducing diabetes, a circular excision was created in the skin of rats, and the treatments were performed for 21 days. Two groups were studied, which included the Control group and WJ-MSCs group. The studied groups were sampled on the 7th, 14th, and 21st days after wounding. Histological ultrasound imaging of dermis and epidermis in the wound area for thickness and density measurement and skin elasticity were evaluated. Our results on post-wounding days 7, 14, and 21 showed that the wound closure, thickness, and density of new epidermis and dermis, as well as skin elasticity in the healed wound, were significantly higher in the WJ-MSCs group compared to the Control group. Subcutaneous administration of WJ-MSCs in diabetic wounds can effectively accelerate healing. Based on this, these cells can be used along with other treatment methods in the healing of different types of chronic wounds.

Skin wound healing improvement in diabetic mice through FTIR microspectroscopy after implanting pluripotent stem cells. APL Bioeng 2023; 7:016109. [PMID: 36779176 PMCID: PMC9908300 DOI: 10.1063/5.0130383] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Diabetes is a chronic degenerative disease that carries multiple complications. One of the most important complications is the diabetic cutaneous complications, such as skin lesions, ulcerations, and diabetic foot, which are present in 30%-70% of the patients. Currently, the treatments for wound healing include growth factors and cytokines, skin substitutes, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and skin grafts. However, these treatments are ineffective due to the complex mechanisms involved in developing unhealed wounds. Considering the aforementioned complications, regenerative medicine has focused on this pathology using stem cells to improve these complications. However, it is essential to mention that there is a poor biomolecular understanding of diabetic skin and the effects of treating it with stem cells. For this reason, herein, we investigated the employment of pluripotent stem cells (PSC) in the wound healing process by carrying out morphometric, histological, and Fourier-transform infrared microspectroscopy (FTIRM) analysis. The morphometric analysis was done through a photographic follow-up, measuring the lesion areas. For the histological analysis, hematoxylin & eosin and picrosirius red stains were used to examine the thickness of the epidermis and the cellularity index in the dermis as well as the content and arrangement of collagen type I and III fibers. Finally, for the FTIRM analysis, skin cryosections were obtained and analyzed by employing a Cassegrain objective of 16× of an FTIR microscope coupled to an FTIR spectrometer. For this purpose, 20 mice were divided into two groups according to the treatment they received: the Isotonic Salt Solution (ISS) group and the PSCs group (n = 10). Both groups were induced to diabetes, and six days after diabetes induction, an excisional lesion was made in the dorsal area. Furthermore, using microscopy and FTIRM analysis, the skin healing process on days 7 and 15 post-skin lesion excision was examined. The results showed that the wound healing process over time, considering the lesion size, was similar in both groups; however, the PSCs group evidenced hair follicles in the wound. Moreover, the histological analysis evidenced that the PSCs group exhibited granulation tissue, new vessels, and better polarity of the keratinocytes. In addition, the amount of collagen increased with a good deposition and orientation, highlighting that type III collagen fibers were more abundant in the PSCs. Finally, the FTIR analysis evidenced that the PSCs group exhibited a faster wound healing process. In conclusion, the wounds treated with PSCs showed a more rapid wound healing process, less inflammatory cellular infiltration, and more ordered structures than the ISS group.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the influence of occlusive dressing on the healing of excisional skin wounds in mice. METHODS Pre-clinical, comparative, and translational study. Mice were divided into three experimental groups: wounds occluded with hydrocolloid (HD) dressings, transparent polyurethane film (TF) dressings, and without occlusion (WO), monitored at three, six and 14 days, with eight animals each. Closure rate, infiltration of neutrophils and macrophages, measurement of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and, histologically, angiogenesis were evaluated. RESULTS Wound closure was accelerated in the occlusive groups. There was a decrease in TNF-α levels in the HD group when compared to the WO and TF groups. Neutrophils accumulation decreased in the HD group. Increased dosages of macrophages were evidenced in the HD group, compared to the WO and TF groups. Levels of VEGF were increased in the TF and HD groups. CONCLUSIONS It is suggested that the occlusion of wounds modulates the inflammatory response.

Abstract
A major challenge in the field of diabetic wound healing is to confirm the body's intrinsic mechanism that could sense the immune system damage promptly and protect the wound from non-healing. Accumulating literature indicates that macrophage, a contributor to prolonged inflammation occurring at the wound site, might play such a role in hindering wound healing. Likewise, other immune cell dysfunctions, such as persistent neutrophils and T cell infection, may also lead to persistent oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction during diabetic wound healing. In this article, we discuss recent advances in the immune cellular components in wounds under the diabetic milieu, and the role of key signaling mechanisms that compromise the function of immune cells leading to persistent wound non-healing.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic lower limb ulcers (CLLU) are those injuries that persist for more than six weeks despite adequate care. They are relatively common; it is estimated that 10/1,000 people will develop CLLU in their lifetime. Diabetic ulcer, because of its unique pathophysiology (association between neuropathy, microangiopathy, and immune deficiency), is considered one of the most complex and difficult etiologies of CLLU for treatment. This treatment is complex, costly, and sometimes frustrating, as it is often ineffective, which worsens the quality of life of patients and makes its treatment a challenge. OBJECTIVE To describe a new method for treating diabetic CLLU and the initial results of using a new autologous tissue regeneration matrix. METHOD This is a pilot, prospective, an interventional study that used a novel protocol of autologous tissue regeneration matrix for the treatment of diabetic CLLU. RESULTS Three male cases with a mean age of 54 years were included. A total of six Giant Pro PRF Membrane (GMPro) were used varying their application between one to three sessions during treatment. A total of 11 liquid phase infiltrations were performed varying their application between three and four sessions. The patients were evaluated weekly and a reduction in the wound area and scar retraction was observed during the period studied. CONCLUSION The new tissue regeneration matrix described is an effective and low-cost method for the treatment of chronic diabetic ulcers.

Abstract
Background Past studies suggested that ginseng extracts and ginseng-derived molecules exerted significant regulatory effects on skin. However, no reports have described the effects of ginseng-derived nanoparticles (GDNPs) on skin cell proliferation and wound healing. In this study, we investigated whether GDNPs regulate the proliferation of skin cells and promote wound healing in a mouse model. Methods GDNPs were separated and purified via differential centrifugation and sucrose/D2O gradient ultracentrifugation. GDNP uptake, cell proliferation and cell cycle progression were measured by confocal microscopy, CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. Cell migration and angiogenic effects were assessed by the wound scratch assay and tube formation assay, respectively. ELISA was used to detect extracellular matrix secretion. The relevant signaling pathway was confirmed by western blotting. The effects of GDNPs on skin wound healing were assessed by wound observation, HE staining, and western blotting. Results GDNPs possessed the essential features of exosomes, and they were accumulated by skin cells. Treatment with GDNPs notably enhanced the proliferation of HaCaT, BJ and HUVECs. GDNPs also enhanced the migration in HaCaT cells and HUVECs and angiogenesis in HUVECs. GDNPs increased the secretion of MMP-1, fibronectin-1, elastin-1, and COL1A1 in all three cell lines. GDNPs regulated cell proliferation through the ERK and AKT/ mTOR pathways. Furthermore, GDNPs facilitated skin wound healing and decreased inflammation in a mouse skin wound model. Conclusion GDNPs can promote skin wound healing through the ERK and AKT/mTOR pathways. GDNPs thus represent an alternative treatment for chronic skin wounds.

Abstract
There are well-established links between acute inflammation and successful tissue repair across evolution. Innate immune reactions contribute significantly to pathogen clearance and activation of subsequent reparative events. A network of molecular and cellular regulators supports antimicrobial and tissue repair functions throughout the healing process. A delicate balance must be achieved between protection and the potential for collateral tissue damage associated with overt inflammation. In this review, we summarize the contributions of key cellular and molecular components to the acute inflammatory process and the effective and timely transition toward activation of tissue repair mechanisms. We further discuss how the disruption of inflammatory responses ultimately results in chronic non-healing injuries.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine is an active research sphere that focuses on the repair, regeneration, and replacement of damaged tissues and organs. A plethora of innovative wound dressings and skin substitutes have been developed to treat cutaneous wounds and are aimed at reducing the length or need for a hospital stay. The inception of biomaterials with the ability to interact with cells and direct them toward desired lineages has brought about innovative designs in wound healing and tissue engineering. This cellular engagement is achieved by cell cues that can be biochemical or biophysical in nature. In effect, these cues seep into innate repair pathways, cause downstream cell behaviours and, ultimately, lead to advantageous healing. This review will focus on biomolecules with encoded biomimetic, instructive prompts that elicit desired cellular domino effects to achieve advanced wound repair. The wound healing dressings covered in this review are based on functionalized biopolymeric materials. While both biophysical and biochemical cues are vital for advanced wound healing applications, focus will be placed on biochemical cues and in vivo or clinical trial applications. The biochemical cues aforementioned will include peptide therapy, collagen matrices, cell-based therapy, decellularized matrices, platelet-rich plasma, and biometals.

Abstract
The present study aimed to design and optimize, a nanoconjugate of gabapentin (GPN)-melittin (MLT) and to evaluate its healing activity in rat diabetic wounds. To explore the wound healing potency of GPN-MLT nanoconjugate, an in vivo study was carried out. Diabetic rats were subjected to excision wounds and received daily topical treatment with conventional formulations of GPN, MLT, GPN-MLT nanoconjugate and a marketed formula. The outcome of the in vivo study showed an expedited wound contraction in GPN-MLT-treated animals. This was confirmed histologically. The nanoconjugate formula exhibited antioxidant activities as evidenced by preventing malondialdehyde (MDA) accumulation and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzymatic exhaustion. Further, the nanoconjugate showed superior anti-inflammatory activity as it inhibited the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). This is in addition to enhancement of proliferation as indicated by increased expression of transforming growth factor-β (TGF- β), vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β (PDGFRB). Also, nanoconjugate enhanced hydroxyproline concentration and mRNA expression of collagen type 1 alpha 1 (Col 1A1). In conclusion, a GPN-MLT nanoconjugate was optimized with respect to particle size. Analysis of pharmacokinetic attributes showed the mean particle size of optimized nanoconjugate as 156.9 nm. The nanoconjugate exhibited potent wound healing activities in diabetic rats. This, at least partly, involve enhanced antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, proliferative and pro-collagen activities. This may help to develop novel formulae that could accelerate wound healing in diabetes.

Abstract
Acute and chronic dermatological injuries need rapid tissue repair due to the susceptibility to infections. To effectively promote cutaneous wound recovery, it is essential to develop safe, low-cost, and affordable regenerative tools. Therefore, we aimed to identify the biological mechanisms involved in the wound healing properties of the glycosaminoglycan dermatan sulfate (DS), obtained from ascidian Styela plicata, a marine invertebrate, which in preliminary work from our group showed no toxicity and promoted a remarkable fibroblast proliferation and migration. In this study, 2,4-DS (50 µg/mL)-treated and control groups had the relative gene expression of 84 genes participating in the healing pathway evaluated. The results showed that 57% of the genes were overexpressed during treatment, 16% were underexpressed, and 9.52% were not detected. In silico analysis of metabolic interactions exhibited overexpression of genes related to: extracellular matrix organization, hemostasis, secretion of inflammatory mediators, and regulation of insulin-like growth factor transport and uptake. Furthermore, in C57BL/6 mice subjected to experimental wounds treated with 0.25% 2,4-DS, the histological parameters demonstrated a great capacity for vascular recovery. Additionally, this study confirmed that DS is a potent inducer of wound-healing cellular pathways and a promoter of neovascularization, being a natural ally in the tissue regeneration strategy.

Abstract
Hypertrophic scarring (HTS) is a major source of morbidity after cutaneous injury. Recent studies indicate that mechanical force significantly impacts wound healing and skin regeneration which opens up a new direction to combat scarring. Hence, a thorough understanding of the underlying mechanisms is essential in the development of efficacious scar therapeutics. This review provides an overview of the current understanding of the mechanotransduction signaling pathways in scar formation and some strategies that offload mechanical forces in the wounded region for scar prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Objective This project was aimed at formulating a novel nanoemulsion system and evaluating it for open incision wound healing in diabetic animals. Methods The nanoemulsions were characterized for droplet size and surface charge, drug content, antioxidant and antimicrobial profiling, and wound healing potential in diabetic animals. The skin samples excised were also analyzed for histology, mechanical strength, and vibrational and thermal analysis. Results The optimized nanoemulsion (CR-NE-II) exhibited droplet size of26.76 ± 0.9 nm with negative surface charge (−10.86 ± 1.06 mV), was homogenously dispersed with drug content of68.05 ± 1.2%, released almost82.95 ± 2.2%of the drug within first 2 h of experiment with synergistic antioxidant (95 ± 2.1%) and synergistic antimicrobial activity against selected bacterial strains in comparison to blank nanoemulsion, and promoted significantly fast percent reepithelization (96.47%). The histological, vibrational, thermal, and strength analysis of selected skin samples depicted a uniform and even distribution of collagen fibers which translated into significant increase in strength of skin samples in comparison to the control group. Conclusions The optimized nanoemulsion system significantly downregulated the oxidative stress, enhanced collagen deposition, and precluded bacterial contamination of wound, thus accelerating the skin tissue regeneration process.

Abstract
Cell migration is a critical process for wound healing, a physiological phenomenon needed for proper skin restoration after injury. Wound healing can be compromised under pathological conditions. Natural bioactive terpenoids have shown promising therapeutic properties in wound healing. Oleanolic acid (OA), a triterpenoid, enhances in vitro and in vivo cell migration. However, the underlying signaling mechanisms and pathways triggered by OA are poorly understood. We have previously shown that OA activates epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and downstream effectors such as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), leading to c-Jun transcription factor phosphorylation, all of which are involved in migration. We performed protein expression or migration front protein subcellular localization assays, which showed that OA induces c-Jun activation and its nuclear translocation, which precisely overlaps at wound-edge cells. Furthermore, c-Jun phosphorylation was independent of EGFR activation. Additionally, OA promoted actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesion (FA) dynamization. In fact, OA induced the recruitment of regulator proteins to FAs to dynamize these structures during migration. Moreover, OA changed paxillin distribution and activated focal adhesion kinase (FAK) at focal adhesions (FAs). The molecular implications of these observations are discussed.

Abstract
In cancer, tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) possess crucial functions in facilitating epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). EMT is a crucial process in tumor metastasis. Tumor metastasis is one of the hallmarks of cancer and leads to patient mortality. Cancer cells often find ways to evade being detected and attacked by the immune system. This is achieved by cross-talk between cancer cells and the altered microenvironment. The accumulation of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) creates an immunosuppressive and tumor-supportive environment. Circulating monocytes and macrophages which are recruited into tumors are defined as tumor-associated macrophages once in the TME. Based on the activated stimuli and function, macrophages can be divided into M1 macrophages and M2 macrophages. M1 macrophages, also known as classically activated macrophages, exhibit pro-inflammatory and antitumor activities. M2 macrophages, also known as alternatively activated macrophages, exhibit anti-inflammatory, pro-tumorigenic, and wound healing activities. TAMs are considered to be of the M2 phenotype. The TME polarizes recruited macrophages into M2 macrophages as they provide an immunosuppressive pro-tumoral environment. Accumulating studies show that the presence of TAMs in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) leads to tumor progression. In this review, we discuss how EMT can be used by TAMs to cause tumor migration and metastasis in ESCC. We also discuss the potential therapies targeting TAMs.

J Mech Behav Biomed Mater 2022; 134:105414.

Abstract
The wounds arising out of underlying hyperglycemic conditions such as diabetic foot ulcers demand a multifunctional tissue regeneration approach owing to several deficiencies in the healing mechanisms. Herein, four different types of electrospun microfibers by combining Rohu fish skin-derived collagen (Fcol) with a bioactive glass (BAG)/ion-doped bioactive glass, namely, Fcol/BAG, Fcol/CuBAG, Fcol/CoBAG, and Fcol/CuCoBAG was developed to accelerate wound healing through stimulation of key events such as angiogenesis and ECM re-construction under diabetic conditions. SEM analysis shows the porous and microfibrous architecture, while the EDX mapping provides evidence of the incorporation of dopants inside various inorganic-organic composite mats. The viscoelastic properties of the microfibrous mats as measured by a nano-DMA test show a higher damping factor non-uniform tan-delta value. The maximum ultimate tensile strength and toughness are recorded for fish collagen with copper doped bioactive glass microfibers while the least values are demonstrated by microfibers with cobalt dopant. In vitro results demonstrate excellent cell-cell and cell-material interactions when human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were cultured over the microfibers for 48 h. When these mats were applied over full-thickness diabetic wounds in the rabbit model, early wound healing is attained with Fcol/CuBAG, Fcol/CoBAG, and Fcol/CuCoBAG microfibers. Notably, these microfibers-treated wounds demonstrate a significantly (p < 0.01) higher density of blood vessels by CD-31 immunostaining than control, Duoderm, and Fcol/BAG treated wounds. Mature collagen deposition and excellent ECM remodeling are also evident in wounds treated with fish collagen/ion-doped bioactive glass microfibers suggesting their positive role in diabetic wound healing.

Abstract
The Brassicaceae family constitutes some of the most well-studied natural products in the world, due to their anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and pro-regenerative properties as well as their ubiquitous distribution across the world. To evaluate the potential efficacy of the Brassicaceae family in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders and wounds, based on preclinical evidence from in vivo and in vitro studies. This systematic review was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines, using a structured search on the PubMed-Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science platforms. The studies included were those that used murine models and in vitro studies to investigate the effect of Brassicaceae on skin disorders. Bias analysis and methodological quality assessments were examined through SYRCLE’s RoB tool. Brassicaceae have shown positive impacts on inflammatory regulation of the skin, accelerating the wound healing process, and inhibiting the development of edema. The studies showed that the Brassicaceae family has antioxidant activity and effects on the modulation of cyclooxygenase 2 and the nuclear factor kappa β (NFκβ) pathway. The secondary metabolites present in Brassicas are polyphenols (68.75%; n = 11), terpenes/carotenoids (31.25%; n = 5), and glycosylates (25%; n = 4), which are responsible for their anti-inflammatory, healing, and antioxidant effects. In addition, the current evidence is reliable because the bias analysis showed a low risk of bias. Our review indicates that compounds derived from Brassicaceae present exceptional potential to treat inflammatory skin diseases and accelerate cutaneous wound healing. We hope that our critical analysis can help to expedite clinical research and to reduce methodological bias, thereby improving the quality of evidence in future research. The registration number on the Prospero platform is CRD42021262953.

Abstract
Diabetic ulcers are one of the major complications of diabetes, and patients usually suffer from amputation and death due to delayed ulcer wound healing. Persistent inflammation and oxidative stress at the wound site are the main manifestations of delayed wound healing in diabetic ulcers. In addition, chronic hyperglycemia in patients can lead to circulatory accumulation of lipid peroxidation products and impaired iron metabolism pathways leading to the presence of multiple free irons in plasma. Ferroptosis, a newly discovered form of cell death, is characterized by intracellular iron overload and accumulation of iron-dependent lipid peroxides. These indicate that ferroptosis is one of the potential mechanisms of delayed wound healing in diabetic ulcers and will hopefully be a novel therapeutic target for delayed wound healing in diabetic patients. This review explored the pathogenesis of diabetic ulcer wound healing, reveals that oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation are common pathological mechanisms of ferroptosis and delayed wound healing in diabetic ulcers. Based on strong evidence, it is speculated that ferroptosis and diabetic ulcers are closely related, and have value of in-depth research. We attempted to clarify prospective associations between ferroptosis and diabetic ulcers in terms of GPX4, iron overload, ferroptosis inhibitors, AGEs, and HO-1, to provide new ideas for exploring the clinical treatment of diabetic ulcers.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are a series of stable compounds produced under non-enzymatic conditions by the amino groups of biomacromolecules and the free carbonyl groups of glucose or other reducing sugars commonly produced by thermally processed foods. AGEs can cause various diseases, such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, neurodegeneration, and chronic kidney disease, by triggering the receptors of AGE (RAGEs) in the human body. There is evidence that AGEs can also affect the different structures and physiological functions of the skin. However, the mechanism is complicated and cumbersome and causes various harms to the skin. This article aims to identify and summarise the formation and characteristics of AGEs, focussing on the molecular mechanisms by which AGEs affect the composition and structure of normal skin substances at different skin layers and induce skin issues. We also discuss prevention and inhibition pathways, provide a systematic and comprehensive method for measuring the content of AGEs in human skin, and summarise and analyse their advantages and disadvantages. This work can help researchers acquire a deeper understanding of the relationship between AGEs and the skin and provides a basis for the development of effective ingredients that inhibit glycation.
