The autophagy level of cardiomyocytes after macrophage-derived exosome treatment was assessed by an exosome tracing assay, western blotting, and an autophagic flux assay.

Furthermore, Dex upregulated the lipopolysaccharide-induced decrease in miR-29b-3p expression in macrophage-derived exosomes. Exosomal miR-29b-3p from macrophages is thought to be transferred to cardiomyocytes, thus leading to the promotion of autophagy in cardiomyocytes.

This study aimed to investigate whether the efficiency of photodynamic removing biofilm is improving by providing oxygen (O2), as well as the expression of cytokines involved in infected wound healing. Methods Manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles with catalase-like activity were grown in situ on graphitic phase carbon nitride (g-C3N4, CN) nanosheets to construct an all-in-one CN-MnO2 nanozyme, which was then incorporated into poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) to prepare CN-MnO2/PLLA wound dressing by electrospinning. Subsequently, the in vitro antibacterial biofilm ratio and antibacterial ratio of CN-MnO2/PLLA wound dressing were examined by spread plate and crystal violet staining under irradiation with 808 nm near-infrared light and 660 nm visible light. Meanwhile, the rat skin injury model was established, and hematoxylin and eosin (H&amp;E), Masson’s, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), Arginase 1 (Arg-1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (BFGF) were evaluated in vivo to assess the effect of CN-MnO2/PLLA wound dressing on wound healing. Results Biofilm density caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa had elimination rates of 83 and 62%, respectively, when treated with CN-MnO2/PLLA dressing. Additionally, the dressing exhibited high antibacterial efficacy against both bacteria, achieving 99 and 98.7% elimination of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively. Furthermore, in vivo experiments showed that the CN-MnO2/PLLA wound dressing achieved complete healing of infected wounds on Day 14, with a wound healing rate of &amp;gt;99% by increasing collagen deposition, expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine Arg-1, vascularization cytokine VEGF, and epithelial cell BFGF, and inhibiting the expression of inflammatory cytokine TNF-α. Conclusions The CN-MnO2/PLLA wound dressing exhibited excellent antibacterial properties in vitro and in vivo. In addition, CN-MnO2/PLLA wound dressing accelerated rapid wound healing through an anti-inflammatory, pro-vascular regeneration and skin tissue remodeling mechanism.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"75 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142490590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It can also be triggered by other conditions such as dermatitis and melanoma-induced skin cancer. Delayed healing or non-healing after skin injury presents an important clinical issue; therefore, further explorations into the occurrence and development of wound healing at the cellular and molecular levels are necessary. Single-cell sequencing (SCS) is used to sequence and analyze the genetic messages of a single cell. Furthermore, SCS can accurately detect cell expression and gene sequences. The use of SCS technology has resulted in the emergence of new concepts pertaining to wound healing, making it an important tool for studying the relevant mechanisms and developing treatment strategies. This article discusses the application value of SCS technology, the effects of the latest research on skin wound healing, and the value of SCS technology in clinical applications. Using SCS to determine potential biomarkers for wound repair will serve to accelerate wound healing, reduce scar formation, optimize drug delivery, and facilitate personalized treatments.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"93 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142487679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to medical ethics and clinical accessibility, the collection of human scar specimens is frequently restricted, and the establishment of scar experimental animal models for scientific research is urgently needed. The four most commonly used animal models of hypertrophic scars have the following drawbacks: the rabbit ear model takes a long time to construct; the immunodeficient mouse hypertrophic scar model necessitates careful feeding and experimental operations; female Duroc pigs are expensive to purchase and maintain, and their large size makes it difficult to produce a significant number of models; and mouse scar models that rely on tension require special skin stretch devices, which are often damaged and shed, resulting in unstable model establishment. Our group overcame the shortcomings of previous scar animal models and created a new mouse model of hypertrophic scarring induced by suture anchoring at the wound edge. Methods We utilized suture anchoring of incisional wounds to impose directional tension throughout the healing process, restrain wound contraction, and generate granulation tissue, thus inducing scar formation. Dorsal paired incisions were generated in mice, with wound edges on the upper back sutured to the rib cage and the wound edges on the lower back relaxed as a control. Macroscopic manifestation, microscopic histological analysis, mRNA sequencing, bioinformatics, and in vitro cell assays were also conducted to verify the reliability of this method. Results Compared with those in relaxed controls, the fibrotic changes in stretched wounds were more profound. Histologically, the stretched scars were hypercellular, hypervascular, and hyperproliferative with disorganized extracellular matrix deposition, and displayed molecular hallmarks of hypertrophic fibrosis. In addition, the stretched scars exhibited transcriptional overlap with mechanically stretched scars, and human hypertrophic and keloid scars. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-serine/threonine-protein kinase B signaling was implicated as a profibrotic mediator of apoptosis resistance under suture-induced tension. Conclusions This straightforward murine model successfully induces cardinal molecular and histological features of pathological hypertrophic scarring through localized suture tension to inhibit wound contraction. The model enables us to interrogate the mechanisms of tension-induced fibrosis and evaluate anti-scarring therapies.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"75 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142452177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to elucidate the mechanism of mechanical stimulation regulating TRPV4. Methods Immunohistochemical staining and western blotting were used to evaluate cartilage repair at the TBI after injury. The RNA expression and protein expression of mechanoreceptors and key pathway molecules regulating cartilage proliferation were analyzed. TBI samples were collected for transcriptome sequencing to detect gene expression. Calcium-ion imaging and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the function of TPRV4 and cellular communication network factor 2 (CCN2) after the administration of siRNA, recombinant adenovirus and agonists. Results We found that treadmill training improved the quality of TBI healing and enhanced fibrochondrocyte proliferation. The transcriptome sequencing results suggested that the elevated expression of the mechanistically stimulated regulator CCN2 and the exogenous administration of recombinant human CCN2 significantly promoted TRPV4 protein expression and fibrochondrocyte proliferation. In vitro, under mechanical stimulation conditions, small interfering RNA (siRNA)-CCN2 not only inhibited the proliferation of primary fibrochondrocytes but also suppressed TRPV4 protein expression and activity. Subsequently, primary fibrochondrocytes were treated with the TRPV4 agonist GSK1016790A and the recombinant adenovirus TRPV4 (Ad-TRPV4), and GSK1016790A partially reversed the inhibitory effect of siRNA-CCN2. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase/ protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway participated in the above process. Conclusions Mechanical stimulation promoted fibrochondrocyte proliferation and TBI healing by activating TRPV4 channels and the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, and CCN2 may be a key regulatory protein in maintaining TRPV4 activation.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142452179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor Twist-related protein 1 (TWIST1) controls cell proliferation and differentiation in tissue development and disease processes. In this study, we aimed to clarify the essential role of TWIST1 in the pathogenesis of keloids. Methods Immunohistochemistry, cell counting kit-8 assays, western blotting, PCR, matrigel invasion assays and immunofluorescence assays were applied to demonstrate the effects and mechanisms of TWIST1 in fibroblasts derived from normal skin and keloids. Mass spectrometry, ubiquitination assays, chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual luciferase reporter assay were applied to explore the interaction of TWIST1 with downstream molecules. Results In the present study, we confirmed that TWIST1 was upregulated in keloid tissue of patients and in keloid-derived fibroblasts (KFBs). In vitro, TWIST1 inhibition prevented KFB proliferation, invasion and activation. We also discovered a link between TWIST1 and the transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) signaling related molecules TGF-β receptor 1 (TΒR1), SMAD family member 2 (Smad2) and Smad3, and the fibrosis markers α-smooth muscle actin, collagen type I and collagen type III in KFBs. Mechanistically, we uncovered a brand-new mechanism by which TWIST1 interacts with myocyte enhancer factor 2A (MEF2A) and suppresses its ubiquitination and degradation. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assay, TΒR1 was identified as a novel downstream target of MEF2A, which directly binds to its promoter. Overexpression of TWIST1 promoted the recruitment of MEF2A to the TΒR1 promoter and restored TΒR1 functional expression. Conclusions Our research highlights a significant function of TWIST1 in the development of keloid and its related fibroblasts, partially facilitated by elevated MEF2A-dependent TΒR1 expression. Blocking the expression of TWIST1 in KFBs could potentially pave a novel therapeutic avenue for keloid treatment.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"83 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142451453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, developing fast and effective haemostatic materials is critical. This study aimed to design a novel and efficient silk fibroin–gelatine composite haemostatic sponge loaded with thrombin (SFG@TB) to assist in wound haemostasis. Methods The SFG@TB composite haemostatic sponge was formed with gelatine, silk fibroin and thrombin through a freeze-drying technique. First, the material characteristics of SFG@TB were measured, including the elastic modulus, swelling rate and porosity. Second, in vitro cell coculture experiments, in vivo embedding experiments and haemolytic analyses were performed to evaluate the biocompatibility of SFG@TB. Then, coagulation experiments and femoral artery and liver bleeding models were used to evaluate the haemostatic performance of SFG@TB. Finally, the ability of SFG@TB to promote tissue healing was evaluated through experiments with Sprague–Dawley rat models of injury. Results Compared with gelatine sponges, SFG@TB exhibited outstanding mechanical properties and water absorption properties. In addition, the excellent biosafety of the composite haemostatic sponge was confirmed by cell experiments, subcutaneous embedding experiments and haemolytic analysis. Based on the in vitro coagulation test results, SFG@TB exhibited greater adhesion of red blood cells and platelets and a shorter dynamic coagulation time. Compared to the use of silk fibroin–gelatine composite haemostatic sponges or gelatine sponges, the introduction of thrombin resulted in a shorter haemostasis time and a smaller bleeding volume, as revealed by in vivo coagulation tests. The experiments with Sprague–Dawley rat models of injury indicated that SFG@TB accelerated the wound healing process and reduced scar width, which was accompanied by thicker granulation tissue. Conclusions Overall, the SFG@TB composite haemostatic sponge, which exhibits outstanding mechanical properties, good haemostatic performance and high biosafety, promoted wound haemostasis and tissue repair. Therefore, the SFG@TB composite haemostatic sponge could be a promising material for wound haemostasis.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"110 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142431376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
