Abstract
Preventing and treating avascular necrosis at the distal end of the flaps are critical to surgery success, but current treatments are not ideal. A recent study shows that apoptotic bodies (ABs) generated near the site of apoptosis can be taken up and promote cell proliferation. The study reveals that ABs derived from fibroblast-like cells in the subcutaneous connective tissue (FSCT cells) of skin flaps promoted ischaemic flap survival. It is also found that ABs inhibited cell death and oxidative stress and promoted M1-to-M2 polarization in macrophages. Transcriptome sequencing and protein level testing demonstrated that ABs promoted ischaemic flap survival in endothelial cells and macrophages by inhibiting ferroptosis via the KEAP1-Nrf2 axis. Furthermore, microRNA (miR) sequencing data and in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that ABs inhibited KEAP1 by delivering miR-339-5p to exert therapeutic effects. In conclusion, FSCT cell-derived ABs inhibited ferroptosis, promoted the macrophage M1-to-M2 transition via the miR-339-5p/KEAP1/Nrf2 axis and promoted ischaemic flap survival. These results provide a potential therapeutic strategy to promote ischaemic flap survival by administering ABs.

Abstract
Cell-based therapies offer tremendous potential for skin flap regeneration. However, the hostile microenvironment of the injured tissue adversely affects the longevity and paracrine effects of the implanted cells, severely reducing their therapeutic effectiveness. Here, an injectable hydrogel (nGk) with reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging capability, which can amplify the cell viability and functions of encapsulated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), is employed to promote skin flap repair. nGk is formulated by dispersing manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs) in a gelatin/κ-carrageenan hydrogel, which exhibits satisfactory injectable properties and undergoes a sol-gel phase transition at around 40 °C, leading to the formation of a solid gel at physiological temperature. MnO2 NPs enhance the mechanical properties of the hydrogel and give it the ability to scavenge ROS, thus providing a cell-protective system for MSCs. Cell culture studies show that nGk can mitigate the oxidative stress, improve cell viability, and boost stem cell paracrine function to promote angiogenesis. Furthermore, MSC-loaded nGk (nGk@MSCs) can improve the survival of skin flaps by promoting angiogenesis, reducing inflammatory reactions, and attenuating necrosis, providing an effective approach for tissue regeneration. Collectively, injectable nGk has substantial potential to enhance the therapeutic benefits of MSCs, making it a valuable delivery system for cell-based therapies.

Abstract
Random flap grafting is a routine procedure used in plastic and reconstructive surgery to repair and reconstruct large tissue defects. Flap necrosis is primarily caused by ischemia-reperfusion injury and inadequate blood supply to the distal flap. Ischemia-reperfusion injury leads to the production of excessive reactive oxygen species, creating a pathological microenvironment that impairs cellular function and angiogenesis. In this study, we developed a microenvironment remodeling self-healing hydrogel [laminarin-chitosan-based hydrogel-loaded extracellular vesicles and ceria nanozymes (LCH@EVs&CNZs)] to improve the flap microenvironment and synergistically promote flap regeneration and survival. The natural self-healing hydrogel (LCH) was created by the oxidation laminarin and carboxymethylated chitosan via a Schiff base reaction. We loaded this hydrogel with CNZs and EVs. CNZs are a class of nanomaterials with enzymatic activity known for their strong scavenging capacity for reactive oxygen species, thus alleviating oxidative stress. EVs are cell-secreted vesicular structures containing thousands of bioactive substances that can promote cell proliferation, migration, differentiation, and angiogenesis. The constructed LCH@EVs&CNZs demonstrated a robust capacity for scavenging excess reactive oxygen species, thereby conferring cellular protection in oxidative stress environments. Moreover, these constructs notably enhance cell migration and angiogenesis. Our results demonstrate that LCH@EVs&CNZs effectively remodel the pathological skin flap microenvironment and marked improve flap survival. This approach introduces a new therapeutic strategy combining microenvironmental remodeling with EV therapy, which holds promise for promoting flap survival.

Abstract
A wound takes a long time to heal and involves several steps. Following tissue injury, inflammation is the primary cause of tissue regeneration and repair processes. As a result, the pathophysiological processes involving skin damage, healing, and remodeling depend critically on the control of inflammation. The fact that it is a feasible target for improving the prognosis of wound healing has lately become clear. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an innovative and effective therapeutic option for wound healing due to their immunomodulatory and paracrine properties. By controlling the inflammatory milieu of wounds through immunomodulation, transplanted MSCs have been shown to speed up the healing process. In addition to other immunomodulatory mechanisms, including handling neutrophil activity and modifying macrophage polarization, there may be modifications to the activation of T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and dendritic cells (DCs). Furthermore, several studies have shown that pretreating MSCs improves their ability to modulate immunity. In this review, we summarize the existing knowledge about how MSCs influence local inflammation in wounds by influencing immunity to facilitate the healing process. We also provide an overview of MSCs optimizing techniques when used to treat wounds.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin flap transplantation is a routine strategy in plastic and reconstructive surgery for skin-soft tissue defects. Recent research has shown that M2 macrophages have the potential for pro-angiogenesis during tissue healing. METHODS In our research, we extracted the exosomes from M2 macrophages(M2-exo) and applied the exosomes in the model of skin flap transplantation. The flap survival area was measured, and the choke vessels were assessed by morphological observation. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and Immunohistochemistry were applied to assess the neovascularization. The effect of M2-exo on the function of Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was also investigated. We also administrated 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME2, an inhibitor of HIF-1α) to explore the underlying mechanism. We tested the effects of M2-Exo on the proliferation of HUVECs through CCK8 assay and EdU staining assay. RESULTS The survival area and number of micro-vessels in the skin flaps were increased in the M2-exo group. Besides, the dilation rate of choke vessels was also enhanced in the M2-exo group. Additionally, compared with the control group, M2-exo could accelerate the proliferation, migration and tube formation of HUVECs in vitro. Furthermore, the expression of the pro-angiogenesis factors, HIF-1α and VEGFA, were overexpressed with the treatment of the M2-exo. The expression of HIF1AN protein level was decreased in the M2-exo group. Finally, treatment with HIF-1α inhibitor reverses the pro-survival effect of M2-exo on skin flaps by interfering with the HIF1AN/HIF-1α/VEGFA signaling pathway. CONCLUSION This study showed that M2-exosomes promote skin flap survival by enhancing angiogenesis, with HIF1AN/HIF-1α/VEGFA playing a crucial role in this process.

Abstract
Porous scaffolds for cell cultured meat are currently limited in the food-grade material requirements, the cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation capacities, and the ignored appearance design. We proposed programmable scaffolds specially tailored for cell cultured meat. The scaffold with aligned porous structures was fabricated with the ice-templated directional freeze-drying of the food-grade collagen hydrogel. Due to the abundant tripeptide presence and well-aligned porous structures, the scaffold could not only provide sites for cell adhesion and proliferation, but also promote the oriented growth and differentiation of cells. The up-regulation of myogenic related genes, synthesis of myogenic related proteins and formation of matured myotubes furtherly proved the differentiation of cells on aligned scaffold. These characteristics would facilitate the traditional meat characteristics simulation of cell cultured meat in term of texture and microstructure. Meanwhile, patterned scaffolds were achievable as well with the help of mold-assisted ice templating, which would improve the people's interest, recognition, and acceptance of the tailored cell cultured meat. These characteristics indicate great application prospects of the proposed programmable scaffolds in cell cultured meat.

Abstract
Fish skin grafting as a new skin substitute is currently being used in clinical applications. Acceleration of the wound healing, lack of disease transmission, and low cost of the production process can introduce fish skin as a potential alternative to other grafts. An appropriate decellularization process allows the design of 3D acellular scaffolds for skin regeneration without damaging the morphology and extracellular matrix content. Therefore, the role of decellularization processes is very important to maintain the properties of fish skin. In this review article, recent studies on various decellularization processes as well as biological, physical, and mechanical properties of fish skin and its applications with therapeutic effects in wound healing were investigated.

Abstract
Random skin flap grafting is the most common skin grafting technique in reconstructive surgery. Despite progress in techniques, the incidence of distal flap necrosis still exceeds 3%, which limits its use in clinical practice. Current methods for treating distal flap necrosis are still lacking. Pinocembrin (Pino) can inhibit reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell death in a variety of diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, but the role of Pino in random flaps has not been explored. Therefore, we explore how Pino can enhance flap survival and its specific upstream mechanisms via macroscopic examination, Doppler, immunohistochemistry, and western blot. The results suggested that Pino can enhance the viability of random flaps by inhibiting ROS, pyroptosis and apoptosis. The above effects were reversed by co-administration of Pino with adeno-associated virus-silencing information regulator 2 homolog 3 (SIRT3) shRNA, proving the beneficial effect of Pino on the flaps relied on SIRT3. In addition, we also found that Pino up-regulates SIRT3 expression by activating the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway. This study proved that Pino can improve random flap viability by eliminating ROS, and ROS-induced cell death through the activation of SIRT3, which are triggered by the AMPK/PGC-1α signaling pathway.

Abstract
Corneal epithelial defects and excessive wound healing might lead to severe complications. As stem cells can self-renew infinitely, they are a promising solution for regenerating the corneal epithelium and treating severe corneal epithelial injury. The chemical and biophysical properties of biological scaffolds, such as the amniotic membrane, fibrin, and hydrogels, can provide the necessary signals for stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Multiple researchers have conducted investigations on these scaffolds and evaluated them as potential therapeutic interventions for corneal disorders. These studies have identified various inherent benefits and drawbacks associated with these scaffolds. In this study, we provided a comprehensive overview of the history and use of various stem cells in corneal repair. We mainly discussed biological scaffolds that are used in stem cell transplantation and innovative materials that are under investigation.

Abstract
Bioactive wound dressings that are capable of regulating the local wound microenvironment have attracted a very large interest in the field of regenerative medicine. Macrophages have many critical roles in normal wound healing, and the dysfunction of macrophages significantly contributes to impaired or non-healing skin wounds. Regulation of macrophage polarization towards an M2 phenotype provides a feasible strategy to enhance chronic wound healing, mainly by promoting the transition of chronic inflammation to the proliferation phase of wound healing, upregulating the level of anti-inflammatory cytokines around the wound area, and stimulating wound angiogenesis and re-epithelialization. Based on this, modulation of macrophage functions by the rational design of bioactive scaffolds has emerged as a promising way to accelerate delayed wound healing. This review outlines current strategies to regulate the response of macrophages using bioactive materials, with an emphasis on extracellular matrix-based scaffolds and nanofibrous composites.

Abstract
There are scarce published data suggesting, that collagen extracted from fish skin may be an attractive alternative to mammalian-derived collagen for the in vitro cell cultures. In this study, we investigated proliferation potential and differentiation capability into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages of rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (rASCs) and human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs) cultured on collagen extracted from silver carp and African sharptooth catfish skins, compared with commercially available mammalian collagen and collagen-free culture dishes. Our results revealed no significant differences between fish collagen and mammalian collagen in supporting cell viability and proliferation capacity. Fish-derived collagen is a cheap material derived from production waste, does not contain transmissible pathogens of mammalian origin, supports human cell cultures at comparable level to conventional collagen sources, and may be considered as the product of choice for the in vitro cell cultures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Volumetric muscle loss (VML) due to various reasons may cause motor dysfunction and tissue engineering has been proposed for muscle regeneration. However, developing three-dimensional (3D) tissue-engineered scaffolds that can mimic oriented cell growth of muscle tissues are challenging for regeneration medicine. Herein, we propose a novel self-curling 3D oriented scaffold (SCOS) composed of fish derived gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and fish scales for repairing skeletal muscles. METHODS Fish scales of tilapia were decellularized and decalcified. Then, SCOSs were constructed by ultraviolet-coating methylated fish gelatin on the back of fish scales. C2C12 myoblasts were cultured on SCOSs, and after induction of myogenic differentiation, SCOS/C2C12 transplants were prepared for in vivo experiments. RESULTS Decellularized and decalcified fish scales (DDFSs) became soft and retained the original oriented microgroove surface structure that could induce oriented cell growth. SCOSs could self-curl into 3D structures when immersing in culture medium due to different swelling properties of fish GelMA and DDFSs. Cell experiments demonstrated that SCOSs enhanced the oriented growth and myogenic differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts. By integrating SCOSs and myogenic differentiated C2C12 myoblasts, the resultant SCOS/C2C12 transplants promoted de novo muscle regeneration and functional restoration of muscle activity in the mouse model of VML. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that SCOSs loaded with myogenic differentiated C2C12 myoblasts can promote muscle regeneration in mice with skeletal muscle injuries, indicating application prospects of such scaffolds in muscle tissue engineering and other related fields.
