{"title":"A multifunctional Dihydromyricetin-loaded hydrogel for the sequential modulation of diabetic wound healing and Glycemic control","authors":"Hongyi Li, Huiyun Wen, He Zhang, Xiang Cao, Li Li, Xiaowen Hu, Yanmei Zhang, Xinkun Shen, Quazi T H Shubhra, Hong Yang, Xiaojun Cai","doi":"10.1093/burnst/tkaf024","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/burnst/tkaf024","url":null,"abstract":"Background The management of chronic diabetic wounds remains a formidable challenge in clinical practice. Persistent hyperglycemia triggers vasculopathy, neuropathy, and immune dysfunction, critically impeding wound repair. We developed a multifunctional hydrogel (DPFI) engineered for sequential therapeutic actions, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, pro-vascularization/epithelialization, and glycemic-regulating properties, to address these complications. Methods DPFI hydrogels were prepared by encapsulating dihydromyricetin (DMY) into aldehyde-functionalized Pluronic F127 micelles (DMY@PF127-CHO), followed by a Schiff base reaction with amine-rich polyethyleneimine (PEI), resulting in the formation of a hydrogel for controlled drug release. The antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, pro-cellular proliferative, and angiogenic properties of the hydrogels were evaluated using various techniques, including structural characterization, bacterial live/dead staining, reactive oxygen species (ROS) assays, antioxidant enzyme assays, reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT–PCR), cellular immunofluorescence staining, scratch wound healing assays, and angiogenesis assays. In vivo, the effects of the hydrogel on wound healing and glycemic control were assessed in MRSA-infected mice with streptozotocin-induced diabetes. Results The hydrogel exhibits exceptional injectability, bioadhesion, and self-healing properties, facilitating the controlled, sustained release of DMY, which synergistically enhances antimicrobial effects in combination with PEI. The antioxidant activity of DMY is remarkable; it effectively scavenges reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induces the expression of antioxidant enzymes while promoting the phenotypic switch of M1 macrophages to M2 macrophages to mitigate inflammation. Critically, DPFI also contributes to glycemic regulation, reducing hyperglycemia-associated complications and creating a microenvironment conducive to wound repair. Comprehensive in vitro and in vivo analyses corroborate the multifaceted therapeutic capabilities of DPFI, including its antibacterial activity and abilities to clear ROS, reduce inflammation, promote angiogenesis, promote epithelialization, and modulate blood glucose levels. Conclusions DPFI represents a promising, integrative strategy for enhanced diabetic wound management, meriting further exploration for clinical application.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"183 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143661359","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}

Poor blood circulation and neuropathy impair the body's ability to heal wounds effectively, creating a conducive environment for ulcers. Excessive reactive oxygen species contribute to ulcer development by damaging cellular structures and hindering wound healing. The administration of antioxidants can protect cells from oxidative damage and promote wound recovery. Antioxidants such as epidermal growth factors, flavonoid hesperidin, alpha-lipoic acid, and N-acetylcysteine effectively reduce oxidative stress. Encapsulating various drugs into nanoparticles and targeting carriers such as hydrogels, metal–organic frameworks, and nanohydrogels can improve their therapeutic effects. Nanotechnologies have been shown to boost tissue regeneration by modifying biomaterial properties, modulating signal release, and targeting key factors. Here, we describe the occurrence and development of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), emphasizing the role of oxidative damage in these processes. This review summarizes the strategy for targeting oxidative damage in DFUs using nanotechnology-loaded antioxidant drugs. This review advocates for the use of personalized biomaterials in treating DFUs and provides a theoretical basis for their potential clinical and translational applications.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143599840","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}

While bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) exhibit therapeutic potential through ECM remodeling, conventional transplantation strategies are limited by suboptimal cell retention and transient therapeutic effects. Methods BMSCs cultured on Flexcell plates were subjected to programmable mechanical stretching using a custom-built spherical cell-stretching system. Strain rate- and duration-dependent effects on paracrine signaling and ECM secretion were longitudinally assessed through Western blotting and ELISA. The optimized mechanical parameters (15% deformation, 1440 cycles, 5-s vertex residence time) were subsequently applied to generate BMSC sheets. Comparative analyses of biological activity and mechanical properties were performed between non-stretched controls and mechanically optimized groups. In vivo therapeutic efficacy was evaluated in diabetic rat models through wound closure kinetics, Masson’s trichrome staining, and immunofluorescence detection of neovascularization markers. Mechanistic insights were obtained via transcriptomic profiling of stretch-activated signaling pathways. Results Mechanical stretching significantly upregulated type I collagen, type III collagen, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) secretion in BMSCs. The optimized stretching parameters (15% deformation, 1440 cycles, and 5 s vertex residence time) promoted BMSC proliferation while reducing apoptosis without compromising stemness. Mechanical stretching facilitated the formation of layered cell sheets with more organized collagen deposition and higher mechanical strength, expediting wound healing in diabetic rats through enhanced re-epithelialization and neovascularization. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that mechanical stretching significantly upregulated mechanosensitive molecules, mechanical stimulation signaling pathways, and cellular behavior regulatory pathways, particularly those associated with mechanical stimuli response, integrin binding, ECM secretion, and intercellular adhesion. Conclusions Mechanically stretched BMSC cell sheets can promote diabetic wound healing by enhancing cellular activity, paracrine of growth factors, and ECM components.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"37 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143570443","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}

Exosomes have recently been recognized as crucial players in the healing of diabetic lesions. They have excellent stability, homing effects, biocompatibility, and reduced immunogenicity as novel cell-free therapies. In addition to transporting cargos to target cells to enhance intercellular communication, exosomes are beneficial in nearly every phase of diabetic wound healing. They participate in modulating the inflammatory response, accelerating proliferation and reepithelization, increasing angiogenesis, and regulating extracellular matrix remodeling. Accumulating evidence indicates that hydrogels or dressings in conjunction with exosomes can prolong the duration of exosome residency in diabetic wounds. This review provides an overview of the mechanisms, delivery, clinical application, engineering, and existing challenges of the use of exosomes in diabetic wound repair. We also propose future directions for biomaterials incorporating exosomes: 2D or 3D scaffolds, biomaterials loaded with wound healing-promoting gases, intelligent biomaterials, and the prospect of systematic application of exosomes.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has been conducted to explore novel cell types or molecular profiles of DFU from various perspectives. This study aimed to comprehensively analyse the potential mechanisms underlying impaired reepithelization of DFU in a single-cell perspective. Methods We conducted scRNA-seq on tissues from human normal skin (NS), acute wound (AW) and DFU to investigate the potential mechanisms underlying impaired epidermal differentiation and the pathological microenvironment. Pseudo-time and lineage inference analyses revealed the distinct states and transition trajectories of epidermal cells under different conditions. Transcription factor analysis revealed the potential regulatory mechanism of key subtypes of keratinocytes. Cell–cell interaction analysis revealed the regulatory network between the proinflammatory microenvironment and epidermal cells. Laser-capture microscopy coupled with RNA sequencing (LCM-seq) and multiplex immunohistochemistry (mIHC) were used to validate the expression and location of key subtypes of keratinocytes. Results Our research provided a comprehensive map of the phenotypic and dynamic changes that occur during epidermal differentiation, alongside the corresponding regulatory networks in DFU. Importantly, we identified two subtypes of keratinocytes: basal cells (BC-2) and diabetes-associated keratinocytes (DAK) that might play crucial roles in the impairment of epidermal homeostasis. BC-2 and DAK showed a marked increase in DFU, with an inactive state and insufficient motivation for epidermal differentiation. BC-2 was involved in the cellular response and apoptosis processes, with high expression of TXNIP, IFITM1 and IL1R2. Additionally, the pro-differentiation transcription factors (TFs) were downregulated in BC-2 in DFU, indicating that the differentiation process might be inhibited in BC-2 in DFU. DAK was associated with cellular glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, increased CCL2 + CXCL2+ fibroblasts, VWA1+ vascular endothelial cells and GZMA+CD8+ T cells were detected in DFU. These changes in the wound microenvironment could regulate the fate of epidermal cells through the TNFSF12-TNFRSF12A, IFNG-IFNGR1/2 and IL-1B-IL1R2 pathways, which might result in persistent inflammation and impaired epidermal differentiation in DFU. Conclusions Our findings offer novel insights into the pathophysiology of DFU and present potential therapeutic targets that could improve wound care and treatment outcomes for diabetic patients.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143434940","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}
