Abstract
Background: Despite advancements in reconstructive procedures, ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury remains a significant challenge in reconstructive surgery, with mitochondrial dysfunction playing a pivotal role. Mitochondrial transplantation has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy to address this issue. This study aims to evaluate the impact of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived mitochondrial transplantation on skin flap I/R models in rats.
Material and methods: Twenty male rats underwent I/R injury on skin flaps, with or without mitochondrial transplantation administered via intravenous or subcutaneous routes. Analysis encompassed histopathology, inflammatory, apoptotic, oxidative stress, and hypoxia markers.
Results: Results revealed a reduction in inflammation, apoptosis, oxidative stress, and hypoxia in the transplantation group compared to controls.
Conclusion: The findings suggest that umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived mitochondrial transplantation shows promise in enhancing flap viability and attenuating I/R injury, offering valuable insights for improved outcomes in reconstructive surgery. However, further exploration in larger animal models and refinement of delivery methods and dosage are warranted to fully elucidate its clinical translatability.
期刊介绍:
Skin Research and Technology is a clinically-oriented journal on biophysical methods and imaging techniques and how they are used in dermatology, cosmetology and plastic surgery for noninvasive quantification of skin structure and functions. Papers are invited on the development and validation of methods and their application in the characterization of diseased, abnormal and normal skin.
Topics include blood flow, colorimetry, thermography, evaporimetry, epidermal humidity, desquamation, profilometry, skin mechanics, epiluminiscence microscopy, high-frequency ultrasonography, confocal microscopy, digital imaging, image analysis and computerized evaluation and magnetic resonance. Noninvasive biochemical methods (such as lipids, keratin and tissue water) and the instrumental evaluation of cytological and histological samples are also covered.
The journal has a wide scope and aims to link scientists, clinical researchers and technicians through original articles, communications, editorials and commentaries, letters, reviews, announcements and news. Contributions should be clear, experimentally sound and novel.
