Abstract
'Smart' bandages based on multimodal wearable devices could enable real-time physiological monitoring and active intervention to promote healing of chronic wounds. However, there has been limited development in incorporation of both sensors and stimulators for the current smart bandage technologies. Additionally, while adhesive electrodes are essential for robust signal transduction, detachment of existing adhesive dressings can lead to secondary damage to delicate wound tissues without switchable adhesion. Here we overcome these issues by developing a flexible bioelectronic system consisting of wirelessly powered, closed-loop sensing and stimulation circuits with skin-interfacing hydrogel electrodes capable of on-demand adhesion and detachment. In mice, we demonstrate that our wound care system can continuously monitor skin impedance and temperature and deliver electrical stimulation in response to the wound environment. Across preclinical wound models, the treatment group healed ~25% more rapidly and with ~50% enhancement in dermal remodeling compared with control. Further, we observed activation of proregenerative genes in monocyte and macrophage cell populations, which may enhance tissue regeneration, neovascularization and dermal recovery.

J Cancer Res Clin Oncol 2023:10.1007/s00432-023-04800-4. [PMID: 37097392 PMCID: PMC10374699 DOI: 10.1007/s00432-023-04800-4] [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: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/15/2023] [Indexed: 04/26/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Okadaic acid class of tumor promoters are transformed into endogenous protein inhibitors of PP2A, SET, and CIP2A in human cancers. This indicates that inhibition of PP2A activity is a common mechanism of cancer progression in humans. It is important to study the roles of SET and CIP2A vis-à-vis their clinical significance on the basis of new information gathered from a search of PubMed. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The first part of this review introduces the carcinogenic roles of TNF-α and IL-1, which are induced by the okadaic acid class of compounds. The second part describes unique features of SET and CIP2A in cancer progression for several types of human cancer: (1) SET-expressing circulating tumor cells (SET-CTCs) in breast cancer, (2) knockdown of CIP2A and increased PP2A activity in chronic myeloid leukemia, (3) CIP2A and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activity in erlotinib sensitive- and resistant-non-small cell lung cancer, (4) SET antagonist EMQA plus radiation therapy against hepatocellular carcinoma, (5) PP2A inactivation as a common event in colorectal cancer, (6) prostate cancer susceptibility variants, homeobox transcription factor (HOXB13 T) and CIP2A T, and (7) SET inhibitor OP449 for pre-clinical investigation of pancreatic cancer. In the Discussion, the binding complex of SET is briefly introduced, and overexpression of SET and CIP2A proteins is discussed in relation to age-associated chronic inflammation (inflammaging). CONCLUSION This review establishes the concept that inhibition of PP2A activity is a common mechanism of human cancer progression and activation of PP2A activity leads to effective anticancer therapy.

Abstract
Venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and pressure ulcers are complex chronic wounds with multifactorial etiologies that are associated with high patient morbidity and mortality. Despite considerable progress in deciphering the pathologies of chronic wounds using "omics" approaches, considerable gaps in knowledge remain, and current therapies are often not efficacious. We provide a comprehensive overview of current understanding of the molecular mechanisms that impair healing and current knowledge on cell-specific dysregulation including keratinocytes, fibroblasts, immune cells, endothelial cells and their contributions to impaired reepithelialization, inflammation, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling that characterize chronic wounds. We also provide a rationale for further elucidation of ulcer-specific pathologic processes that can be therapeutically targeted to shift chronic nonhealing to acute healing wounds.

Conserved transcription factors promote cell fate stability and restrict reprogramming potential in differentiated cells. Nat Commun 2023; 14:1709.

Abstract
Defining the mechanisms safeguarding cell fate identity in differentiated cells is crucial to improve 1) - our understanding of how differentiation is maintained in healthy tissues or altered in a disease state, and 2) - our ability to use cell fate reprogramming for regenerative purposes. Here, using a genome-wide transcription factor screen followed by validation steps in a variety of reprogramming assays (cardiac, neural and iPSC in fibroblasts and endothelial cells), we identified a set of four transcription factors (ATF7IP, JUNB, SP7, and ZNF207 [AJSZ]) that robustly opposes cell fate reprogramming in both lineage and cell type independent manners. Mechanistically, our integrated multi-omics approach (ChIP, ATAC and RNA-seq) revealed that AJSZ oppose cell fate reprogramming by 1) - maintaining chromatin enriched for reprogramming TF motifs in a closed state and 2) - downregulating genes required for reprogramming. Finally, KD of AJSZ in combination with MGT overexpression, significantly reduced scar size and improved heart function by 50%, as compared to MGT alone post-myocardial infarction. Collectively, our study suggests that inhibition of barrier to reprogramming mechanisms represents a promising therapeutic avenue to improve adult organ function post-injury.

Abstract
Hypertrophic scars can cause pain, movement restrictions, and reduction in the quality of life. Despite numerous options to treat hypertrophic scarring, efficient therapies are still scarce, and cellular mechanisms are not well understood. Factors secreted by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCsec) have been previously described for their beneficial effects on tissue regeneration. In this study, we investigated the effects of PBMCsec on skin scarring in mouse models and human scar explant cultures at single-cell resolution (scRNAseq). Mouse wounds and scars, and human mature scars were treated with PBMCsec intradermally and topically. The topical and intradermal application of PBMCsec regulated the expression of various genes involved in pro-fibrotic processes and tissue remodeling. We identified elastin as a common linchpin of anti-fibrotic action in both mouse and human scars. In vitro, we found that PBMCsec prevents TGFβ-mediated myofibroblast differentiation and attenuates abundant elastin expression with non-canonical signaling inhibition. Furthermore, the TGFβ-induced breakdown of elastic fibers was strongly inhibited by the addition of PBMCsec. In conclusion, we conducted an extensive study with multiple experimental approaches and ample scRNAseq data demonstrating the anti-fibrotic effect of PBMCsec on cutaneous scars in mouse and human experimental settings. These findings point at PBMCsec as a novel therapeutic option to treat skin scarring.

Abstract
The ageing process is a systemic decline from cellular dysfunction to organ degeneration, with more predisposition to deteriorated disorders. Rejuvenation refers to giving aged cells or organisms more youthful characteristics through various techniques, such as cellular reprogramming and epigenetic regulation. The great leaps in cellular rejuvenation prove that ageing is not a one-way street, and many rejuvenative interventions have emerged to delay and even reverse the ageing process. Defining the mechanism by which roadblocks and signaling inputs influence complex ageing programs is essential for understanding and developing rejuvenative strategies. Here, we discuss the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that counteract cell rejuvenation, and the targeted cells and core mechanisms involved in this process. Then, we critically summarize the latest advances in state-of-art strategies of cellular rejuvenation. Various rejuvenation methods also provide insights for treating specific ageing-related diseases, including cellular reprogramming, the removal of senescence cells (SCs) and suppression of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), metabolic manipulation, stem cells-associated therapy, dietary restriction, immune rejuvenation and heterochronic transplantation, etc. The potential applications of rejuvenation therapy also extend to cancer treatment. Finally, we analyze in detail the therapeutic opportunities and challenges of rejuvenation technology. Deciphering rejuvenation interventions will provide further insights into anti-ageing and ageing-related disease treatment in clinical settings.

Abstract
Activated fibroblasts in tumors, or cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), have become a popular research area over the past decade. As important players in many aspects of tumor biology, with functions ranging from collagen deposition to immunosuppression, CAFs have been the target of clinical and pre-clinical studies that have revealed their potential pro- and anti-tumorigenic dichotomy. In this review, we describe the important role of CAFs in the tumor microenvironment and the technological advances that made these discoveries possible, and we detail the models that are currently available for CAF investigation. Additionally, we present evidence to support the value of encompassing CAF investigation as a future therapeutic avenue alongside immune and cancer cells while highlighting the challenges that must be addressed for successful clinical translation of new findings.

Abstract
We recently demonstrated the chemical reprogramming of human somatic cells to pluripotent stem cells (hCiPSCs), which provides a robust approach for cell fate manipulation. However, the utility of this chemical approach is currently hampered by slow kinetics. Here, by screening for small molecule boosters and systematically optimizing the original condition, we have established a robust, chemically defined reprogramming protocol, which greatly shortens the induction time from ∼50 days to a minimum of 16 days and enables highly reproducible and efficient generation of hCiPSCs from all 17 tested donors. We found that this optimized protocol enabled a more direct reprogramming process by promoting cell proliferation and oxidative phosphorylation metabolic activities at the early stage. Our results highlight a distinct chemical reprogramming pathway that leads to a shortcut for the generation of human pluripotent stem cells, which represents a powerful strategy for human cell fate manipulation.

Abstract
With age, skeletal muscle stem cells (MuSCs) activate out of quiescence more slowly and with increased death, leading to defective muscle repair. To explore the molecular underpinnings of these defects, we combined multiomics, single-cell measurements, and functional testing of MuSCs from young and old mice. The multiomics approach allowed us to assess which changes are causal, which are compensatory, and which are simply correlative. We identified glutathione (GSH) metabolism as perturbed in old MuSCs, with both causal and compensatory components. Contrary to young MuSCs, old MuSCs exhibit a population dichotomy composed of GSHhigh cells (comparable with young MuSCs) and GSHlow cells with impaired functionality. Mechanistically, we show that antagonism between NRF2 and NF-κB maintains this bimodality. Experimental manipulation of GSH levels altered the functional dichotomy of aged MuSCs. These findings identify a novel mechanism of stem cell aging and highlight glutathione metabolism as an accessible target for reversing MuSC aging.

Abstract
In this study, electrospun nanofibers (NFs) used in trauma dressings were prepared using silk fibroin (SF) and gelatin (GT) as materials and highly volatile formic acid as the solvent, with three different concentrations of propolis extracts (EP), which were loaded through a simple process. The resulting samples were characterized by surface morphology, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), contact angle meter, water absorption, degradation rate, and mechanical property tests. The incorporation of propolis improved its antibacterial properties against Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus, compared to those of the silk gelatin nanofiber material (SF/GT) alone. In vitro biocompatibility assays showed that SF/GT-1%EP had good cytocompatibility and hemocompatibility. In addition, it can also significantly promote the migration of L929 cells. SF/GT-1%EP was applied to a mouse model of full thickness skin defects, and it was found to significantly promote wound healing. These results indicate that the SF/GT-EP nanofiber material has good biocompatibility, migrating-promoting capability, antibacterial properties, and healing-promoting ability, providing a new idea for the treatment of full thickness skin defects.

Abstract
In situ reactivation of hydrogels remains a long-standing key challenge in chemistry and materials science. Herein, we first report an ultraconvenient in situ renewable antibacterial hydrogel prepared via a facile physical contact-triggered strategy based on an ultrafast chlorine transfer pathway. We discover that the as-proposed hydrogel with a programmable 3D network cross-linked by noncovalent bonds and physical interactions can serve as a smart platform for selective active chlorine transfer at the hydrogel/hydrogel interface. Systematic experiments and density functional theory prove that the N-halamine glycopolymers integrated into the hydrogel system work as a specific renewable biocide, permitting the final hydrogel to be recharged in situ within 1 min under ambient conditions. Due to its strength and durability, pathogen specificity, and biocompatibility, coupled with its rapid in situ reactivation, this antibacterial hydrogel holds great potential for in vivo biomedical use and circulating water disinfection. We envision this proposed strategy will pave a new avenue for the development of in situ renewable smart hydrogels for real-world applications.

Abstract
Treatment of vascular stenosis with angioplasty results in acute vascular damage, which may lead to restenosis. Owing to the highly complex cellularity of blood vessels, the healing response following this damage is incompletely understood. To gain further insight into this process, scRNA-seq of mouse carotid tissue after wire injury was performed. Stages of acute inflammation, resolution and remodeling were recapitulated in these data. To identify cell types which give rise to neointima, analyses focused on smooth muscle cell and fibroblast populations, and included data integration with scRNA-seq data from myocardial infarction and atherosclerosis datasets. Following carotid injury, a subpopulation of smooth muscle cells which also arises during atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction was identified. So-called stem cell/endothelial cell/monocyte (SEM) cells are candidates for repopulating injured vessels, and were amongst the most proliferative cell clusters following wire-injury of the carotid artery. Importantly, SEM cells exhibit specific transcriptional profiles which could be therapeutically targeted. SEM cell gene expression patterns could also be detected in bulk RNA-sequencing of neointimal tissue isolated from injured carotid vessels by laser capture microdissection. These data indicate that phenotypic plasticity of smooth muscle cells is highly important to the progression of lumen loss following acute carotid injury. Interference with SEM cell formation could be an innovative approach to combat development of restenosis.

Abstract
Infection and healing of wounds after injury has always been an unavoidable problem in daily life, so design of a biomaterial with antibacterial and good wound healing properties is highly needed. Herein, a wound healing hydrogel dressing with halloysite clay and chitin as the main components was prepared, which combines the advantages of the biomacromolecule and clay. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) are extremely biocompatible clay materials with a hollow tubular structure, and the inner and outer surfaces of HNTs are composed of SiOx and AlOx layers with different charges. Au nanoparticles with diameter in 5-10 nm were filled into the HNTs' lumen to endow photothermal effect of the clay materials. Au@HNTs was then mixed with chitin solution to prepare flexible composite hydrogel by crosslinking by epichlorohydrin. The antibacterial properties, biocompatibility and hemostatic properties of the hydrogel material were investigated by antibacterial experiments, cell experiments, mouse liver and tail hemostatic experiments. After infecting the back wound of mice with Staphylococcus aureus, the hydrogel was applied to the wound to further verify the killing effect on bacteria and wound healing effect of the hydrogel material in vivo. The Au@HNTs-chitin composite hydrogel exhibits high antibacterial and hemostatic activity as well as promoting wound healing function with low cytotoxicity. This study is significant for the development of high-performance wound dressings based on two commonly used biocompatible materials, which shows promising application in wound sterilization and healing.

Abstract
By providing an ideal environment for healing, biomaterials can be designed to facilitate and encourage wound regeneration. As the wound healing process is complex, there needs to be consideration for the cell types playing major roles, such as fibroblasts. As a major cell type in the dermis, fibroblasts have a large impact on the processes and outcomes of wound healing. Prevopisly, conjugating the angiopoietin-1 derived Q-peptide (QHREDGS) to a collagen-chitosan hydrogel created a biomaterial with in vivo success in accelerating wound healing. This study utilized solvent cast Q-peptide conjugated collagen-chitosan seeded with fibroblast monolayers to investigate the direct impact of the material on this major cell type. After 24 h, fibroblasts had a significant change in release of anti-inflammatory, pro-healing, and ECM deposition cytokines, with demonstrated immunomodulatory effects on macrophages and upregulated expression of critical wound healing genes.

Abstract
Fibroblasts, derived from the embryonic mesenchyme, are a diverse array of cells with roles in development, homeostasis, repair, and disease across tissues. In doing so, fibroblasts maintain micro-environmental homeostasis and create tissue niches by producing a complex extracellular matrix (ECM) including various structural proteins. Although long considered phenotypically homogenous and functionally identical, the emergence of novel technologies such as single cell transcriptomics has allowed the identification of different phenotypic and cellular states to be attributed to fibroblasts, highlighting their role in tissue regulation and inflammation. Therefore, fibroblasts are now recognised as central actors in many diseases, increasing the need to discover new therapies targeting those cells. Herein, we review the phenotypic heterogeneity and functionality of these cells and their roles in health and disease.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are favorable for antibacterial infection but their overproduction results in serious inflammatory response and aggravates the hypoxic state of the wound tissue, which is detrimental to healing stages of proliferation and remodeling. Here, an atomic-dispersion Fe-doped oxygen-deficient molybdenum oxide MoO3- X (ADFM) bifunctional nanozyme, featuring implanted peroxidase-like and enhanced catalase-like activity, is developed for decomposing H2 O2 into strongly oxidizing hydroxyl radicals (•OH) for prevention of bacterial infection and into plentiful O2 for healing stages. Therein, the introduction of Fe into MoO3- X primarily produces an asymmetric electron density difference by elongating the bond length between metal atoms, synchronously stabilizing adsorption of •OH and weakening the adsorption of O2 . ADFM also shows unimaginably high aqueous dispersity and pH-adaptive ROS regulation in the wound microenvironment, both of which are favorable for ADFM to fully exert enzyme-like activity for timely antibacterial and efficient wound-healing action. ADFM thus achieves efficient healing of drug-resistant bacteria-infected wounds in vivo, at an ultralow dosage of 30 µg mL-1 against 106 CFU mL-1 extended spectrum β-lactamases-producing Escherichia coli, exhibiting a wound-healing efficiency of ≈10 mm2 per day, which sets a benchmark among these noble-metal-free nanozyme-based wound-healing agents.

Abstract
Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are both types of lupus, yet the characteristics, and differences between them are not fully understood. Here we show single-cell RNA sequencing data of cutaneous lesions from DLE and SLE patients and skin tissues from healthy controls (HCs). We find significantly higher proportions of T cells, B cells and NK cells in DLE than in SLE. Expanded CCL20+ keratinocyte, CXCL1+ fibroblast, ISGhiCD4/CD8 T cell, ISGhi plasma cell, pDC, and NK subclusters are identified in DLE and SLE compared to HC. In addition, we observe higher cell communication scores between cell types such as fibroblasts and macrophage/dendritic cells in cutaneous lesions of DLE and SLE compared to HC. In summary, we clarify the heterogeneous characteristics in cutaneous lesions between DLE and SLE, and discover some specific cell subtypes and ligand-receptor pairs that indicate possible therapeutic targets of lupus erythematosus.

Abstract
In-situ three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has been emerging as a promising technology designed to rapidly seal cutaneous defects according to their contour. Improvements in the formulations of multi-component bioink are needed to support cytocompatible encapsulation and biological functions. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), as a source of patient-specific autologous growth factors, exhibits capabilities in tissue repair and rejuvenation. This study aimed to prepare PRP-integrated alginate-gelatin (AG) composite hydrogel bioinks and evaluate the biological effects in vitro and in vivo. 3D bioprinted constructs embedded with dermal fibroblasts and epidermal stem cells were fabricated using extrusion strategy. The integration of PRP not only improved the cellular behavior of seeded cells, but regulate the tube formation of vascular endothelial cells and macrophage polarization in a paracrine manner, which obtained an optimal effect at an incorporation concentration of 5%. For in-situ bioprinting, PRP integration accelerated the high-quality wound closure, modulated the inflammation and initiated the angiogenesis compared with the AG bioink. In conclusion, we revealed the regenerative potential of PRP, readily available at the bedside, as an initial signaling provider in multi-component bioink development. Combined with in-situ printing technology, it is expected to accelerate the clinical translation of rapid individualized wound repair.

Abstract
Chronic wounds are characterized by long-term inflammation and persistent infection, which make them difficult to heal. Therefore, an urgent desire is to develop a multifunctional wound dressing that can prevent wound infection and promote wound healing by creating a favorable microenvironment. In this study, a curcumin-based metal-organic framework (QCSMOF-Van), loaded with vancomycin and coated with quaternary ammonium salt chitosan (QCS), was prepared. Multifunctional composite hydrogels were conveniently synthesized by combining methacrylic anhydride modified gelatin and methacrylic anhydride modified oxidized sodium alginate with QCSMOF-Van through radical polymerization and Schiff base reaction. It is important to note that the QCSMOF-Van could capture bacteria through the positive charges on the surface of QCS. In this process, due to the synergistic effect of broad-spectrum antibacterial Zn2+ and vancomycin, the metabolism of bacteria was well inhibited, and the efficient capturing and rapid killing of bacteria were achieved. The QCSMOF-Van hydrogels could precisely regulate the balance of M1/M2 phenotypes of macrophages, thereby promoting the regeneration of nerves and blood vessels, which promotes the rapid healing of chronic wounds. This advanced cascade management strategy for tissue regeneration highlights the potential of multifunctional composite hydrogels in chronic wound dressings.

Abstract
bFGF is a commonly used and reliable factor for improving chronic wound healing, and hSulf-1 expression is abundant in surrounding cells of chronic wound tissue and vascular endothelial cells, which can reverse the effect of bFGF and inhibit the signalling activity of cell proliferation. In this study, an adenovirus, Ad5F35ET1-bFGF-shSulf1, was designed for establishing the dual-gene modified vascular endothelial cells, which were used as the repair cells for skin chronic wound. Ad5F35ET1-bFGF-shSulf1 infected ECV304 cells in vitro and mediated the overexpression of bFGF and the knockdown of hSulf-1, which effectively activated the AKT and ERK signal transduction pathways, facilitate cell proliferation and migration, with the cell viability to 128.29% at 72 h after infection, compared to 66.65%, 73.74%, 87.63%, 103.14% in the blank control, Ad5F35ET1-EGFP-shNC, Ad5F35ET1-shSulf1, Ad5F35ET1-bFGF groups, respectively. In the rat ear skin injury model, the wound healing was significantly accelerated in the Ad5F35ET1-rbFGF-shrSulf1 group compared to the blank control group (p = 0.0046), Ad5F35ET1-EGFP-shNC group (p = 0.0245), Ad5F35ET1-shrSulf group (p = 0.0426), and Ad5F35ET1-rbFGF group (p = 0.2853). The results demonstrated that this strategy may be a candidate therapy for chronic injury repair.

Abstract
Objective. Studies have shown that arbutin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, which makes it suitable for treating skin wounds. We designed this study to investigate the effect of arbutin on heat-induced apoptosis, proliferation, and migration of dermal fibroblasts and keratinocytes and to explore the molecular mechanism. Methods. In vitro, HaCAT and dermal fibroblast (DFL) cells were cultured and used to establish a heat stress-injured skin cell model. We investigated the effects of arbutin on apoptosis, proliferation, and migration of HaCAT and DFL cells after heat stress injury. We then used immunoblotting to detect the expression of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-AKT, and AKT proteins for studying the underlying mechanisms and used a PI3K/AKT inhibitor (LY294002) to verify the efficacy of arbutin in HaCAT and DFL cells with heat stress injury. Results. Arbutin strongly inhibited heat stress-induced apoptosis, proliferation inhibition, and migration inhibition of HaCAT and DFL cells in vitro. Our results also showed that arbutin strongly decreased the ratio of Bax/Bcl2 protein expression and PCNA protein expression in HaCAT and DFL cells after treatment with heat stress. Furthermore, we also found that arbutin significantly increased the ratio of p-PI3K/PI3K and p-AKT/AKT protein expression, and LY294002 markedly reversed the effect of arbutin on heat stress-induced apoptosis, proliferation inhibition, and migration inhibition of HaCAT and DFL cells. Conclusion. Our finding indicated that arbutin inhibited heat stress-induced apoptosis and promoted proliferation and migration of heat-injured dermal fibroblasts and epidermal cells by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, suggesting that arbutin may provide an alternative therapeutic approach for the treatment of skin injury.

Abstract
Wound healing has invariably been a fundamental health concern, demanding manpower and materials and causing financial burdens. In this research, inspired by the hemostatic function of platelets, we proposed a novel bionic hydrogel by covalent amidation crosslinking natural platelet and alginate for wound healing. With the natural functional groups, the platelet-derived hydrogel exhibited outstanding biocompatibility and blood compatibility. By changing the addition ratio of platelets to alginates, the mechanical properties of the achieved hydrogel were variable to cater to different wound environments. Furthermore, silver nanoparticles could be loaded into the void space of the hydrogel which endowed the composites with superior anti-infective properties. We have demonstrated that the bio-inspired platelet hydrogel could promote hemostasis of acute tissue damage, prevent bacterial proliferation, and promote angiogenesis, collagen deposition, and granulation tissue formation in wound healing. These features signify the potential values of the bio-inspired platelet hydrogel in clinical applications.

Abstract
Periodontitis is a highly prevalent disease leading to uncontrolled osteoclastic jawbone resorption and ultimately edentulism; however, the disease onset mechanism has not been fully elucidated. Here we propose a mechanism for initial pathology based on results obtained using a recently developed Osteoadsorptive Fluogenic Sentinel (OFS) probe that emits a fluorescent signal triggered by cathepsin K (Ctsk) activity. In a ligature-induced mouse model of periodontitis, a strong OFS signal is observed before the establishment of chronic inflammation and bone resorption. Single cell RNA sequencing shows gingival fibroblasts to be the primary cellular source of early Ctsk. The in vivo OFS signal is activated when Toll-Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) ligand or oral biofilm extracellular DNA (eDNA) is topically applied to the mouse palatal gingiva. This previously unrecognized interaction between oral microbial eDNA and Ctsk of gingival fibroblasts provides a pathological mechanism for disease initiation and a strategic basis for early diagnosis and treatment of periodontitis.

Abstract
Significance: Wound healing is the largest medical market without an existing small molecule/drug treatment. Both "under-healing" (chronic wounds) and "over-healing" (scarring) cause a substantial biomedical burden and lifelong consequences for patients. These problems cost tens of billions of dollars per year in the United States alone, a number expected to grow as the population ages and the prevalence of common comorbidities (e.g., diabetes) rises. However, no therapies currently exist to produce the "ideal" healing outcome: efficient wound repair through regeneration of normal tissue. Recent Advances: Ongoing research continues to illuminate possible therapeutic avenues for wound healing. By identifying underlying mechanisms of wound repair-for instance, tissue mechanics' role in fibrosis or cell populations that modulate wound healing and scarring-novel molecular targets may be defined. This Advances in Wound Care Forum issue includes reviews of scientific literature and original research from the Hagey Laboratory for Pediatric Regenerative Medicine at Stanford and its alumni, including developing approaches for encouraging wound healing, minimizing fibrosis, and coaxing regeneration. Critical Issues: Wound healing problems reflect an enormous and rapidly expanding clinical burden. The issues of both under- and over-healing wound outcomes will continue to expand as their underlying causes (e.g., diabetes) grow. Targeted treatments are needed to enable wound repair with functional tissue restoration and decreased scarring. Future Directions: Basic scientists will continue to refine understanding of factors driving undesirable wound outcomes. These discoveries are beginning to be translated and, in the coming years, will hopefully form the foundation for antiscarring drugs and other wound therapeutics.

Abstract
Aging is a major risk factor for cerebral infarction. Since cellular senescence is intrinsic to aging, we postulated that stroke-induced cellular senescence might contribute to neural dysfunction. Adult male Wistar rats underwent 60-minute middle cerebral artery occlusion and were grouped according to 3 reperfusion times: 24 hours, 3, and 7 days. The major biomarkers of senescence: 1) accumulation of the lysosomal pigment, lipofuscin; 2) expression of the cell cycle arrest markers p21, p53, and p16INK4a; and 3) expression of the senescence-associated secretory phenotype cytokines interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) were investigated in brain samples. Lipofuscin accumulation was scarce at the initial stage of brain damage (24 hours), but progressively increased until it reached massive distribution at 7 days post-ischemia. Lipofuscin granules (aggresomes) were mainly confined to the infarcted areas, that is parietal cortex and adjacent caudate-putamen, which were equally affected. The expression of p21, p53, and p16INK4a, and that of IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β, was significantly higher in the ischemic hemisphere than in the non-ischemic hemisphere. These data indicate that brain cell senescence develops during acute ischemic infarction and suggest that the acute treatment of ischemic stroke might be enhanced using senolytic drugs.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is an irreversible growth arrest with a dynamic secretome, termed the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). Senescence is a cell-intrinsic barrier for reprogramming, whereas the SASP facilitates cell fate conversion in non-senescent cells. However, the mechanisms by which reprogramming-induced senescence regulates cell plasticity are not well understood. Here, we investigate how the heterogeneity of paracrine senescence impacts reprogramming. We show that senescence promotes in vitro reprogramming in a stress-dependent manner. Unbiased proteomics identifies a catalog of SASP factors involved in the cell fate conversion. Amphiregulin (AREG), frequently secreted by senescent cells, promotes in vitro reprogramming by accelerating proliferation and the mesenchymal-epithelial transition via EGFR signaling. AREG treatment diminishes the negative effect of donor age on reprogramming. Finally, AREG enhances in vivo reprogramming in skeletal muscle. Hence, various SASP factors can facilitate cellular plasticity to promote reprogramming and tissue repair.

Abstract
Ageing is intimately connected to the induction of cell senescence1,2, but why this is so remains poorly understood. A key challenge is the identification of pathways that normally suppress senescence, are lost during ageing and are functionally relevant to oppose ageing3. Here we connected the structural and functional decline of ageing tissues to attenuated function of the master effectors of cellular mechanosignalling YAP and TAZ. YAP/TAZ activity declines during physiological ageing in stromal cells, and mimicking such decline through genetic inactivation of YAP/TAZ in these cells leads to accelerated ageing. Conversely, sustaining YAP function rejuvenates old cells and opposes the emergence of ageing-related traits associated with either physiological ageing or accelerated ageing triggered by a mechano-defective extracellular matrix. Ageing traits induced by inactivation of YAP/TAZ are preceded by induction of tissue senescence. This occurs because YAP/TAZ mechanotransduction suppresses cGAS-STING signalling, to the extent that inhibition of STING prevents tissue senescence and premature ageing-related tissue degeneration after YAP/TAZ inactivation. Mechanistically, YAP/TAZ-mediated control of cGAS-STING signalling relies on the unexpected role of YAP/TAZ in preserving nuclear envelope integrity, at least in part through direct transcriptional regulation of lamin B1 and ACTR2, the latter of which is involved in building the peri-nuclear actin cap. The findings demonstrate that declining YAP/TAZ mechanotransduction drives ageing by unleashing cGAS-STING signalling, a pillar of innate immunity. Thus, sustaining YAP/TAZ mechanosignalling or inhibiting STING may represent promising approaches for limiting senescence-associated inflammation and improving healthy ageing.

Abstract
Background Aging disturbs the skin morphology and function, manifested as thinned epithelium and impaired wound healing. As a major type of skin cells, epidermal stem cells (EpiSCs) are inevitably affected by aging. The effect of age on EpiSCs and wound healing needs to be further explored. Methods Skin RNA-seq data of young (5 months) and old (30 months) CB6F1 mice were obtained from GEO Series GSE35322 with 10 in each age group. Differentially expressed genes were analyzed, and EpiSCs-related pathways were enriched by KEGG. The age-related changes of the screened PI3K/Akt pathway were validated by Western Blot and immunofluorescence of epidermis of SD rats (2, 17, and 23 months, n = 6). The expression of upstream protein EGFR was assessed by immunofluorescence in skin of mice (4, 13, and 23 months, n = 6) and human (respectively, 23, 28, 30 years old in the young group and 69, 73, 78 years old in the old group) skin. Inhibitors of EGFR were used to verify its effects on EpiSCs and wound healing. The small molecule drug Tideglusib was tested for its effects on signaling pathways of EpiSCs and wound healing of aged rats. Western Blot was used for the detection of signaling pathways in in vitro experiments. Cell migration assays were used to assess cell migration ability. Flow cytometry was used to detect changes in cell cycle and apoptosis levels. Sulforhodamine B assay and CCK-8 assay were used to evaluate cell proliferation and viability, respectively. Student’s t test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by the multiple comparisons Bonferroni test were used for statistical analysis. The 0.05 level of confidence was accepted as a significant difference. Results EpiSCs-related PI3K/Akt pathway was enriched by KEGG and verified by decreased phosphorylation of Akt (32.1 ± 13.8%, P < 0.01) and mTOR (38.9 ± 11.8%, P < 0.01) in aged epidermis of rats. Furthermore, the expression of PI3K/Akt-upstream EGFR decreased with age in the epidermis of mouse (27.6 ± 5.5%, P < 0.01) and human (25.8 ± 9.3%, P < 0.01). With EGFR blocked by Erlotinib, EpiSCs showed reduced phosphorylation of Akt (30.4 ± 10.6%, P < 0.01) and mTOR (39.8 ± 12.8%, P < 0.01), impaired proliferation and migration after incubated for 24 h and 36 h (P < 0.05), and higher levels of apoptosis (11.9 ± 1.7%, P < 0.05), and rats showed slower wound healing from d7 to d14 after wounding (P < 0.01). In addition to slower wound healing rates, aged rats also showed a decrease in the efficacy of EGF, partly due to the downregulated EGFR expression. By activating PI3K/Akt pathway, Tideglusib promoted the proliferation and migration of EpiSCs with apoptosis inhibited (P < 0.01) and accelerated wound healing in aged rats from d7 to d14 after wounding (P < 0.05). Notably, the combined use of Tideglusib and EGF could further enhance wound healing in aged rats. Conclusions The decreased expression of EGFR in epidermis with age resulted in decreased activity of the PI3K/Akt pathway and limited EGF efficacy. Tideglusib could assist wound healing in aged rats via activating PI3K/Akt pathway, which may be considered as an ingredient for medical and cosmetics use.

Abstract
It is widely accepted that senescent cells accumulate with aging. They are characterized by replicative arrest and the release of a myriad of factors commonly called the senescence-associated secretory phenotype. Despite the replicative cell cycle arrest, these cells are metabolically active and functional. The release of SASP factors is mostly thought to cause tissue dysfunction and to induce senescence in surrounding cells. As major markers for aging and senescence, p16INK4, p14ARF/p19ARF, and p21 are established. Importantly, senescence is also implicated in development, cancer, and tissue homeostasis. While many markers of senescence have been identified, none are able to unambiguously identify all senescent cells. However, increased levels of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors p16INK4A and p21 are often used to identify cells with senescence-associated phenotypes. We review here the knowledge of senescence, p16INK4A, p14ARF/p19ARF, and p21 in embryonic and postnatal development and potential functions in pathophysiology and homeostasis. The establishment of senolytic therapies with the ultimate goal to improve healthy aging requires care and detailed knowledge about the involvement of senescence and senescence-associated proteins in developmental processes and homeostatic mechanism. The review contributes to these topics, summarizes open questions, and provides some directions for future research.

Abstract
Fibroblasts, the principal cell type of connective tissue, secrete extracellular matrix components during tissue development, homeostasis, repair and disease. Despite this crucial role, the identification and distinction of fibroblasts from other cell types are challenging and laden with caveats. Rapid progress in single-cell transcriptomics now yields detailed molecular portraits of fibroblasts and other cell types in our bodies, which complement and enrich classical histological and immunological descriptions, improve cell class definitions and guide further studies on the functional heterogeneity of cell subtypes and states, origins and fates in physiological and pathological processes. In this review, we summarize and discuss recent advances in the understanding of fibroblast identification and heterogeneity and how they discriminate from other cell types. In this review, the authors look at how recent progress in single-cell transcriptomics complement and enrich the classical, largely morphological, portraits of fibroblasts. The detailed molecular information now available provides new insights into fibroblast identity, heterogeneity and function.

Abstract
Fibroblasts are the main cell type in the dermis. They are responsible for the synthesis and deposition of structural proteins such as collagen and elastin, which are integrated into the extracellular matrix (ECM). Mouse and human studies using flow cytometry, cell culture, skin reconstitution, and lineage tracing experiments have shown the existence of different subpopulations of fibroblasts, including papillary fibroblasts, reticular fibroblasts, and fibroblasts comprising the dermal papilla at the base of the hair follicle. In recent years, the technological advances in single-cell sequencing have allowed researchers to study the repertoire of cells present in full-thickness skin including the dermis. Multiple groups have confirmed that distinct fibroblast populations can be identified in mouse and human dermis on the basis of differences in the transcriptional profile. Here, we discuss the current state of knowledge regarding dermal fibroblast heterogeneity in healthy mouse and human skin, highlighting the similarities and differences between mouse and human fibroblast subpopulations. We also discuss how fibroblast heterogeneity may provide insights into physiological wound healing and its dysfunction in pathological states such as hypertrophic and keloid scars.

Abstract
Effective skin wound healing is a complex process involving anti‐inflammation, fibrosis, matrix reconstruction, and angiogenesis. This work aimed to integrate the macrophage‐mediated anti‐inflammation and fibroblast‐assisted matrix reconstruction for enhanced skin wound healing. Herein, we utilized the cytomembranes derived from repolarized M2 macrophages and fibroblasts to prepare the natural biologics. Results showed that the inflammatory M1 macrophages were repolarized to M2 phenotype by the M2 macrophage cytomembranes. As a consequence, the cytomembranes of M2 macrophage could facilitate the wound closure in mice. Furthermore, the addition of fibroblast membranes to the macrophage cytomembranes contributed to a better matrix reconstruction, neovascularization and angiogenesis. Next, we used a transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) inhibitor to attenuate cutaneous scar formation. Therefore, our modality could promote skin wound healing and effectively suppress scar formation in the preclinical murine skin wounds. The cytomembrane biologics might provide a biocompatible and versatile tool for wound healing.

Abstract
Skin is the largest organ in human body, harboring a plethora of cell types and serving as the organismal barrier. Skin aging such as wrinkling and hair graying is graphically pronounced, and the molecular mechanisms behind these phenotypic manifestations are beginning to unfold. As in many other organs and tissues, epigenetic and metabolic deregulations have emerged as key aging drivers. Particularly in the context of the skin epithelium, the epigenome and metabolome coordinately shape lineage plasticity and orchestrate stem cell function during aging. Our review discusses recent studies that proposed molecular mechanisms that drive the degeneration of hair follicles, a major appendage of the skin. By focusing on skin while comparing it to model organisms and adult stem cells of other tissues, we summarize literature on genotoxic stress, nutritional sensing, metabolic rewiring, mitochondrial activity, and epigenetic regulations of stem cell plasticity. Finally, we speculate about the rejuvenation potential of rate-limiting upstream signals during aging and the dominant role of the tissue microenvironment in dictating aged epithelial stem cell function.

Abstract
Burns and other traumatic injuries represent a substantial biomedical burden. The current standard of care for deep injuries is autologous split-thickness skin grafting (STSG), which frequently results in contractures, abnormal pigmentation, and loss of biomechanical function. Currently, there are no effective therapies that can prevent fibrosis and contracture after STSG. Here, we have developed a clinically relevant porcine model of STSG and comprehensively characterized porcine cell populations involved in healing with single-cell resolution. We identified an up-regulation of proinflammatory and mechanotransduction signaling pathways in standard STSGs. Blocking mechanotransduction with a small-molecule focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor promoted healing, reduced contracture, mitigated scar formation, restored collagen architecture, and ultimately improved graft biomechanical properties. Acute mechanotransduction blockade up-regulated myeloid CXCL10-mediated anti-inflammation with decreased CXCL14-mediated myeloid and fibroblast recruitment. At later time points, mechanical signaling shifted fibroblasts toward profibrotic differentiation fates, and disruption of mechanotransduction modulated mesenchymal fibroblast differentiation states to block those responses, instead driving fibroblasts toward proregenerative, adipogenic states similar to unwounded skin. We then confirmed these two diverging fibroblast transcriptional trajectories in human skin, human scar, and a three-dimensional organotypic model of human skin. Together, pharmacological blockade of mechanotransduction markedly improved large animal healing after STSG by promoting both early, anti-inflammatory and late, regenerative transcriptional programs, resulting in healed tissue similar to unwounded skin. FAK inhibition could therefore supplement the current standard of care for traumatic and burn injuries.

Abstract
Control of ribosome biogenesis is a critical aspect of the regulation of cell metabolism. As ribosomal genes (rDNA) are organized in repeated clusters on chromosomes 13, 14, 15, 21, and 22, trisomy of chromosome 21 confers an excess of rDNA copies to persons with Down syndrome (DS). Previous studies showed an alteration of ribosome biogenesis in children with DS, but the epigenetic regulation of rDNA genes has not been investigated in adults with DS so far. In this study, we used a targeted deep-sequencing approach to measure DNA methylation (DNAm) of rDNA units in whole blood from 69 adults with DS and 95 euploid controls. We further evaluated the expression of the precursor of ribosomal RNAs (RNA45S) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from the same subjects. We found that the rDNA promoter tends to be hypermethylated in DS concerning the control group. The analysis of epihaplotypes (the combination of methylated and unmethylated CpG sites along the same DNA molecule) showed a significantly lower intra-individual diversity in the DS group, which at the same time was characterized by a higher interindividual variability. Finally, we showed that RNA45S expression is lower in adults with DS. Collectively, our results suggest a rearrangement of the epigenetic profile of rDNA in DS, possibly to compensate for the extranumerary rDNA copies. Future studies should assess whether the regulation of ribosome biogenesis can contribute to the pathogenesis of DS and explain the clinical heterogeneity characteristic of the syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Myocardial infarction (MI) commonly occurs in patients with coronary artery disease and have high mortality. Current clinical strategies for MI still limited to reducing the death of myocardial cells but failed to replace these cells. This study aimed to investigate the role of fibroblast growth factor 6 (FGF6) in enhancing the proliferative potential of cardiomyocytes (CMs) after ischemic injury via the Hippo pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS Expression of FGF6 protein was analysed in mice with MI induced by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. Activation of the Hippo pathway and the proliferation potential were examined in ischemic CMs, treated with FGF6 protein or transfected with an adeno-virus carrying FGF6 sh-RNA. Immunofluorescence staining and western blotting were performed to assess the relationship between FGF6 and the Hippo pathway. RESULTS We found that FGF6 expression was significantly increased in the MI mouse model. Knockdown of FGF6 synthesis resulted in poorer heart function after MI. By contrast, treatment with recombinant human FGF6 protein improved heart function, reduced infarct size, and promoted cardiac repair. Additionally, FGF6 restrains the activation of the Hippo pathway and subsequently promotes nuclear accumulation of YAP. This was largely counteracted by treatment with extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor U0126. CONCLUSION FGF6 inhibits the Hippo pathway via ERK1/2, and facilitates nuclear translocation of YAP, and thereby promotes cardiac repair after MI.

Abstract
In patients with comorbidities, a large number of wounds become chronic, representing an overwhelming economic burden for healthcare systems. Engineering the microenvironment is a paramount trend to activate cells and burst-healing mechanisms. The extrusion bioprinting of advanced dressings was performed with novel composite bioinks made by blending adipose decellularized extracellular matrix with plasma and human dermal fibroblasts. Rheological and microstructural assessments of the composite hydrogels supported post-printing cell viability and proliferation over time. Embedded fibroblasts expressed steady concentrations of extracellular matrix proteins, including type 1, 3 and 4 collagens and fibronectin. ELISA assessments, multiplex protein arrays and ensuing bioinformatic analyses revealed paracrine activities corresponding to wound-healing activation through the modulation of inflammation and angiogenesis. The two modalities of advanced dressings, differing in platelet number, showed differences in the release of inflammatory and angiogenic cytokines, including interleukin 8 (IL-8), monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). The conditioned media stimulated human-dermal-cell proliferation over time. Our findings open the door to engineering the microenvironment as a strategy to enhance healing.

J Biol Chem 2022; 298:101718.

Abstract
Peripheral myelination is a complicated process, wherein Schwann cells (SCs) promote the formation of the myelin sheath around the axons of peripheral neurons. Fibroblasts are the second resident cells in the peripheral nerves; however, the precise function of fibroblasts in SC-mediated myelination has rarely been examined. Here, we show that exosomes derived from fibroblasts boost myelination-related gene expression in SCs. We used exosome sequencing, together with bioinformatic analysis, to demonstrate that exosomal microRNA miR-673-5p is capable of stimulating myelin gene expression in SCs. Subsequent functional studies revealed that miR-673-5p targets the regulator of mechanistic target of the rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) tuberous sclerosis complex 2 in SCs, leading to the activation of downstream signaling pathways including mTORC1 and sterol-regulatory element binding protein 2. In vivo experiments further confirmed that miR-673-5p activates the tuberous sclerosis complex 2/mTORC1/sterol-regulatory element binding protein 2 axis, thus promoting the synthesis of cholesterol and related lipids and subsequently accelerating myelin sheath maturation in peripheral nerves. Overall, our findings revealed exosome-mediated cross talk between fibroblasts and SCs that plays a pivotal role in peripheral myelination. We propose that exosomes derived from fibroblasts and miR-673-5p might be useful for promoting peripheral myelination in translational medicine.

Abstract
In this review, we seek a novel strategy for establishing a rejuvenating microenvironment through senescent cells specific reprogramming. We suggest that partial reprogramming can produce a secretory phenotype that facilitates cellular rejuvenation. This strategy is desired for specific partial reprogramming under control to avoid tumour risk and organ failure due to loss of cellular identity. It also alleviates the chronic inflammatory state associated with ageing and secondary senescence in adjacent cells by improving the senescence-associated secretory phenotype. This manuscript also hopes to explore whether intervening in cellular senescence can improve ageing and promote damage repair, in general, to increase people’s healthy lifespan and reduce frailty. Feasible and safe clinical translational protocols are critical in rejuvenation by controlled reprogramming advances. This review discusses the limitations and controversies of these advances’ application (while organizing the manuscript according to potential clinical translation schemes) to explore directions and hypotheses that have translational value for subsequent research.

Abstract
Chronic wounds (e.g. diabetic wounds, pressure wounds, vascular ulcers, etc.) do not usually heal in a timely and orderly manner but rather last for years and may lead to irreversible adverse events, resulting in a substantial financial burden for patients and society. Recently, a large amount of evidence has proven that cellular senescence has a crucial influence on chronic nonhealing wounds. As a defensive mechanism, cell senescence is a manner of cell-cycle arrest with increased secretory phenotype to resist death, preventing cells from stress-induced damage in cancer and noncancer diseases. A growing amount of research has advanced the perception of cell senescence in various chronic wounds and focuses on pathological and physiological processes and therapies targeting senescent cells. However, previous reviews have failed to sum up novel understandings of senescence in chronic wounds and emerging strategies targeting senescence. Herein, we discuss the characteristics and mechanisms of cellular senescence and the link between senescence and chronic wounds as well as some novel antisenescence strategies targeting other diseases that may be applied for chronic wounds.

Abstract
Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear cells; PMNs) form a first line of defense against pathogens and are therefore an important component of the innate immune response. As a result of poorly controlled activation, however, PMNs can also mediate tissue damage in numerous diseases, often by increasing tissue inflammation and injury. According to current knowledge, PMNs are not only part of the pathogenesis of infectious and autoimmune diseases but also of conditions with disturbed tissue homeostasis such as trauma and shock. Scientific advances in the past two decades have changed the role of neutrophils from that of solely immune defense cells to cells that are responsible for the general integrity of the body, even in the absence of pathogens. To better understand PMN function in the human organism, our review outlines the role of PMNs within the innate immune system. This review provides an overview of the migration of PMNs from the vascular compartment to the target tissue as well as their chemotactic processes and illuminates crucial neutrophil immune properties at the site of the lesion. The review is focused on the formation of chemotactic gradients in interaction with the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the influence of the ECM on PMN function. In addition, our review summarizes current knowledge about the phenomenon of bidirectional and reverse PMN migration, neutrophil microtubules, and the microtubule organizing center in PMN migration. As a conclusive feature, we review and discuss new findings about neutrophil behavior in cancer environment and tumor tissue.

MG132 Induces Progerin Clearance and Improves Disease Phenotypes in HGPS-like Patients’ Cells. Cells 2022; 11:cells11040610.

Abstract
Progeroid syndromes (PS), including Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS), are premature and accelerated aging diseases, characterized by clinical features mimicking physiological aging. Most classical HGPS patients carry a de novo point mutation within exon 11 of the LMNA gene encoding A-type lamins. This mutation activates a cryptic splice site, leading to the production of a truncated prelamin A, called prelamin A ∆50 or progerin, that accumulates in HGPS cell nuclei and is a hallmark of the disease. Some patients with PS carry other LMNA mutations and are named “HGPS-like” patients. They produce progerin and/or other truncated prelamin A isoforms (∆35 and ∆90). We previously found that MG132, a proteasome inhibitor, induced progerin clearance in classical HGPS through autophagy activation and splicing regulation. Here, we show that MG132 induces aberrant prelamin A clearance and improves cellular phenotypes in HGPS-like patients’ cells other than those previously described in classical HGPS. These results provide preclinical proof of principle for the use of a promising class of molecules toward a potential therapy for children with HGPS-like or classical HGPS.

Abstract
The process wherein dividing cells exhaust proliferative capacity and enter into replicative senescence has become a prominent model for cellular aging in vitro. Despite decades of study, this cellular state is not fully understood in culture and even much less so during aging. Here, we revisit Leonard Hayflick’s original observation of replicative senescence in WI-38 human lung fibroblasts equipped with a battery of modern techniques including RNA-seq, single-cell RNA-seq, proteomics, metabolomics, and ATAC-seq. We find evidence that the transition to a senescent state manifests early, increases gradually, and corresponds to a concomitant global increase in DNA accessibility in nucleolar and lamin associated domains. Furthermore, we demonstrate that senescent WI-38 cells acquire a striking resemblance to myofibroblasts in a process similar to the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) that is regulated by t YAP1/TEAD1 and TGF-β2. Lastly, we show that verteporfin inhibition of YAP1/TEAD1 activity in aged WI-38 cells robustly attenuates this gene expression program.

Abstract
Significance: Dermal fibroblasts are the major cell type in the skin's dermal layer. These cells originate from distinct locations of the embryo and reside in unique niches in the dermis. Different dermal fibroblasts exhibit distinct roles in skin development, homeostasis, and wound healing. Therefore, these cells are becoming attractive candidates for cell-based therapies in wound healing. Recent Advances: Human skin dermis comprises multiple fibroblast subtypes, including papillary, reticular, and hair follicle-associated fibroblasts, and myofibroblasts after wounding. Recent studies reveal that these cells play distinct roles in wound healing and contribute to diverse healing outcomes, including nonhealing chronic wound or excessive scar formation, such as hypertrophic scars (HTS) and keloids, with papillary fibroblasts having antiscarring and reticular fibroblast scar-forming properties. Critical Issues: The identities and functions of dermal fibroblast subpopulations in many respects remain unknown. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of dermal fibroblast heterogeneity, including their defined cell markers and dermal niches, dynamic changes, and contributions to skin wound healing, with the emphasis on scarless healing, healing with excessive scars (HTS and keloids), chronic wounds, and the potential application of this heterogeneity for developing cell-based therapies that allow wounds to heal faster with less scarring. Future Directions: Heterogeneous dermal fibroblast populations and their functions are poorly characterized. Refining and advancing our understanding of dermal fibroblast heterogeneity and their participation in skin homeostasis and wound healing may create potential therapeutic applications for nonhealing chronic wounds or wounds that heal with excessive scarring.

CRISPR activation of endogenous genes reprograms fibroblasts into cardiovascular progenitor cells for myocardial infarction therapy. Mol Ther 2022; 30:54-74.

Abstract
Fibroblasts can be reprogrammed into cardiovascular progenitor cells (CPCs) using transgenic approaches, although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. We determined whether activation of endogenous genes such as Gata4, Nkx2.5, and Tbx5 can rapidly establish autoregulatory loops and initiate CPC generation in adult extracardiac fibroblasts using a CRISPR activation system. The induced fibroblasts (>80%) showed phenotypic changes as indicated by an Nkx2.5 cardiac enhancer reporter. The progenitor characteristics were confirmed by colony formation and expression of cardiovascular genes. Cardiac sphere induction segregated the early and late reprogrammed cells that can generate functional cardiomyocytes and vascular cells in vitro. Therefore, they were termed CRISPR-induced CPCs (ciCPCs). Transcriptomic analysis showed that cell cycle and heart development pathways were important to accelerate CPC formation during the early reprogramming stage. The CRISPR system opened the silenced chromatin locus, thereby allowing transcriptional factors to access their own promoters and eventually forming a positive feedback loop. The regenerative potential of ciCPCs was assessed after implantation in mouse myocardial infarction models. The engrafted ciCPCs differentiated into cardiovascular cells in vivo but also significantly improved contractile function and scar formation. In conclusion, multiplex gene activation was sufficient to drive CPC reprogramming, providing a new cell source for regenerative therapeutics.

Abstract
Physical resilience, the capacity to respond to and recover from a stressful event, declines with advancing age. Individuals respond differently to physical stressors across their lifespans. While the biological underpinnings of resilience remain unclear, a plausible determinant is the capacity of an individual's cellular and molecular levels to return to homeostasis after a physical challenge. Impaired resilience may not only be a consequence of aging but could also be a contributing factor to the aging process. Therefore, resilience at relatively younger ages could be predictive of future health and lifespan. By utilizing standardized physical challenges and measuring stress response patterns, the relative resilience of individuals can be quantified and classified. Current preclinical research suggests that several physical stressors could be used to measure resilience in clinical aging studies. A mechanistic understanding of why some individuals are more resilient to physical stressors than others could help identify protective factors and therapeutic ways to promote healthy aging.
