As a central regulator in the hypoxic response, hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) can induce multiple cellular processes including glycolysis, angiogenesis, and necroptosis. How cells exploit the HIF-1 pathway to coordinate different processes to survive hypoxia remains unclear. We developed an integrated model of the HIF-1α network to elucidate the mechanism of cellular adaptation to hypoxia. By numerical simulations and bifurcation analysis, we found that HIF-1α is progressively activated with worsening hypoxia due to the sequential deactivation of the hydroxylases prolyl hydroxylase domain enzymes and factor inhibiting HIF (FIH). Bistable switches control the activation and deactivation processes. As a result, glycolysis, immunosuppression, angiogenesis, and necroptosis are orderly elicited in aggravating hypoxia. To avoid the excessive accumulation of lactic acid during glycolysis, HIF-1α induces monocarboxylate transporter and carbonic anhydrase 9 sequentially to export intracellular hydrogen ions, facilitating tumor cell survival. HIF-1α-induced miR-182 facilitates vascular endothelial growth factor production to promote angiogenesis under moderate hypoxia. The imbalance between accumulation and removal of lactic acid in severe hypoxia may result in acidosis and induce cell necroptosis. In addition, the deactivation of FIH results in the destabilization of HIF-1α in anoxia. Collectively, HIF-1α orchestrates the adaptation of tumor cells to hypoxia by selectively inducing its targets according to the severity of hypoxia.

The \"brain-skin axis\" theory suggests that abnormalities in the brain and nervous system can lead to skin degeneration because abnormal mental states, like chronic stress, can have negative physiological and functional effects on the skin through a variety of processes, resulting in delayed wound healing and accelerated skin aging. However, it remains unclear whether maintaining a youthful brain has beneficial effects on aged skin healing. In light of this, we identified youthful brain-derived extracellular vesicles (YBEVs) and created a composite GelMA hydrogel material that encourages scarless wound healing in aged skin. We found that YBEVs reduce the expression of senescence, senescence-associated secretory phenotypes, and inflammation-associated proteins, and even restore dysfunction in senescent cells. Furthermore, by encouraging collagen deposition, angiogenesis, epidermal and dermal regeneration, and folliculogenesis, we demonstrated that YBEV-containing composite hydrogels accelerated scarless wound healing in skin wounds of aged rats. The pro-repairing speed and effect of this composite hydrogel even matched that of young rats. Subsequent proteomic analysis revealed the presence of numerous proteins within YBEVs, some of which may play a role in the regulation of skin energy intake, particularly through oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial function. In conclusion, the findings suggest that maintaining a youthful brain could potentially alleviate skin aging, and the proposed YBEVs-GelMA hydrogel emerges as a promising strategy for addressing age-related impairments in skin healing.</p>","PeriodicalId":21120,"journal":{"name":"Research","volume":"8 ","pages":"0644"},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11951976/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143754422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our analysis revealed that the agglutinate's surface features a patchy distribution of smooth, open pores, as shown by both surface and 3-dimensional structural assessments.

Numerical models of volatile transport in the porous agglutinate have been developed for different flow regimes. These models demonstrate that under the intense conditions of impacts, the transport of volatiles occurs at a remarkably high velocity.
