Tibial cortex transverse transport promotes ischemic diabetic foot ulcer healing via enhanced angiogenesis and inflammation modulation in a novel rat model. Eur J Med Res 2024; 29:155. [PMID: 38449025 PMCID: PMC10918950 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-024-01752-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tibial Cortex Transverse Transport (TTT) represents an innovative surgical method for treating lower extremity diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), yet its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Establishing an animal model that closely mirrors clinical scenarios is both critical and novel for elucidating the mechanisms of TTT. METHODS We established a diabetic rat model with induced hindlimb ischemia to mimic the clinical manifestation of DFUs. TTT was applied using an external fixator for regulated bone movement. Treatment efficacy was evaluated through wound healing assessments, histological analyses, and immunohistochemical techniques to elucidate biological processes. RESULTS The TTT group demonstrated expedited wound healing, improved skin tissue regeneration, and diminished inflammation relative to controls. Marked neovascularization and upregulation of angiogenic factors were observed, with the HIF-1α/SDF-1/CXCR4 pathway and an increase in EPCs being pivotal in these processes. A transition toward anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages indicated TTT's immunomodulatory capacity. CONCLUSION Our innovative rat model effectively demonstrates the therapeutic potential of TTT in treating DFUs. We identified TTT's roles in promoting angiogenesis and modulating the immune system. This paves the way for further in-depth research and potential clinical applications to improve DFU management strategies.

Abstract
Cutaneous wounds pose a significant health burden, affecting millions of individuals annually and placing strain on healthcare systems and society. Nanofilm biomaterials have emerged as promising interfaces between materials and biology, offering potential for various biomedical applications. To explore this potential, our study aimed to assess the wound healing efficacy of amniotic fluid and Moringa olifera-loaded nanoclay films by using in vivo models. Additionally, we investigated the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of these films. Using a burn wound healing model on rabbits, both infected and non-infected wounds were treated with the nanoclay films for a duration of twenty-one days on by following protocols approved by the Animal Ethics Committee. We evaluated wound contraction, proinflammatory mediators, and growth factors levels by analyzing blood samples. Histopathological changes and skin integrity were assessed through H&E staining. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software (version 2; Chicago, IL, USA) with significance set at p < 0.05. Our findings demonstrated a significant dose-dependent increase in wound contraction in the 2%, 4%, and 8% AMF-Me.mo treatment groups throughout the study (p < 0.001). Moreover, macroscopic analysis revealed comparable effects (p > 0.05) between the 8% AMF-Me.mo treatment group and the standard treatment. Histopathological examination confirmed the preservation of skin architecture and complete epidermal closure in both infected and non-infected wounds treated with AMF-Me.mo-loaded nanofilms. RT-PCR analysis revealed elevated concentrations of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), along with decreased levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in AMF-Me.mo-loaded nanofilm treatment groups. Additionally, the antimicrobial activity of AMF-Me.mo-loaded nanofilms contributed to the decontamination of the wound site, positioning them as potential candidates for effective wound healing. However, further extensive clinical trials-based studies are necessary to confirm these findings.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a complication from incomplete or prolonged wound healing, at times requires amputation, putting substantial health and socioeconomic burden. Wound healing is a dynamic overlapping process that can be regulated by arrays of molecular factors showing redundancy in function. However, dysregulation in the mechanism of angiogenesis, extra cellular matrix (ECM) formation and immune modulation are the major causes for impair wound healing in hyperglycaemic patients. Despite development of wound care research, there is a lack of well-accepted targeted therapy with multidisciplinary approach for DFU treatment. Stem cell therapy holds a promising outcome both in preclinical and clinical trials because of its ability to promote healing via regeneration and specialized tissue differentiation. Among different types of stem cells, regenerative potential of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) is well demonstrated in both experimental and clinical trial. Still there is a huge knowledge gap among medical practitioners for deciding the best stem cell source, administration route, and safety. This review strengthens the fact that why stem cell therapy is a promising candidate to treat DFU and cited multiple tissue engineering and biomaterial-based approaches for delivering stem cells and their aftermath paracrine events. Based on the pre-clinical and clinical studies, the review tried to come up with optimum stem cell source and delivery route for the treatment of DFU. At last, the review glances on possible direction to enhance therapeutics strategy for the same, including different approaches like: phytocompounds, exosomes, scaffold geometry, cell preconditioning and licensing etc.

Abstract
Impaired wound healing is a common complication for diabetic patients and effective diabetic wound management remains a clinical challenge. Furthermore, a significant problem that contributes to patient morbidity is the suboptimal quality of healed skin, which often leads to reoccurring chronic skin wounds. Herein, a novel compound and biomaterial building block, panthenol citrate (PC), is developed. It has interesting fluorescence and absorbance properties, and it is shown that PC can be used in soluble form as a wash solution and as a hydrogel dressing to address impaired wound healing in diabetes. PC exhibits antioxidant, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and pro-angiogenic properties, and promotes keratinocyte and dermal fibroblast migration and proliferation. When applied in a splinted excisional wound diabetic rodent model, PC improves re-epithelialization, granulation tissue formation, and neovascularization. It also reduces inflammation and oxidative stress in the wound environment. Most importantly, it improves the regenerated tissue quality with enhanced mechanical strength and electrical properties. Therefore, PC could potentially improve wound care management for diabetic patients and play a beneficial role in other tissue regeneration applications.

Abstract
Skin wounds are characterized by injury to the skin due to trauma, tearing, cuts, or contusions. As such injuries are common to all human groups, they may at times represent a serious socioeconomic burden. Currently, increasing numbers of studies have focused on the role of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) in skin wound repair. As a cell-free therapy, MSC-derived EVs have shown significant application potential in the field of wound repair as a more stable and safer option than conventional cell therapy. Treatment based on MSC-derived EVs can significantly promote the repair of damaged substructures, including the regeneration of vessels, nerves, and hair follicles. In addition, MSC-derived EVs can inhibit scar formation by affecting angiogenesis-related and antifibrotic pathways in promoting macrophage polarization, wound angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and cell migration, and by inhibiting excessive extracellular matrix production. Additionally, these structures can serve as a scaffold for components used in wound repair, and they can be developed into bioengineered EVs to support trauma repair. Through the formulation of standardized culture, isolation, purification, and drug delivery strategies, exploration of the detailed mechanism of EVs will allow them to be used as clinical treatments for wound repair. In conclusion, MSC-derived EVs-based therapies have important application prospects in wound repair. Here we provide a comprehensive overview of their current status, application potential, and associated drawbacks.

Abstract
Human term placenta and other postpartum-derived biological tissues are promising sources of perinatal cells with unique stem cell properties. Among the massive current research on stem cells, one medical focus on easily available stem cells is to exploit them in the design of immunotherapy protocols, in particular for the treatment of chronic non-curable human diseases. Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells and perinatal cells can be harnessed both to generate insulin-producing cells for beta cell replenishment and to regulate autoimmune mechanisms via immunomodulation capacity. In this study, the strong points of cells derived from amniotic epithelial cells and from umbilical cord matrix are outlined and their potential for supporting cell therapy development. From a basic research and expert stem cell point of view, the aim of this review is to summarize information regarding the regenerative medicine field, as well as describe the state of the art on possible cell therapy approaches for diabetes.

Abstract
Significance: Skin wounds and disorders compromise the protective functions of skin and patient quality of life. Although accessible on the surface, they are challenging to address due to paucity of effective therapies. Exogenous extracellular vesicles (EVs) and cell-free derivatives of adult multipotent stromal cells (MSCs) are developing as a treatment modality. Knowledge of origin MSCs, EV processing, and mode of action is necessary for directed use of EVs in preclinical studies and methodical translation. Recent Advances: Nanoscale to microscale EVs, although from nonskin cells, induce functional responses in cutaneous wound cellular milieu. EVs allow a shift from cell-based to cell-free/derived modalities by carrying the MSC beneficial factors but eliminating risks associated with MSC transplantation. EVs have demonstrated striking efficacy in resolution of preclinical wound models, specifically within the complexity of skin structure and wound pathology. Critical Issues: To facilitate comparison across studies, tissue sources and processing of MSCs, culture conditions, isolation and preparations of EVs, and vesicle sizes require standardization as these criteria influence EV types and contents, and potentially determine the induced biological responses. Procedural parameters for all steps preceding the actual therapeutic administration may be the key to generating EVs that demonstrate consistent efficacy through known mechanisms. We provide a comprehensive review of such parameters and the subsequent tissue, cellular and molecular impact of the derived EVs in different skin wounds/disorders. Future Directions: We will gain more complete knowledge of EV-induced effects in skin, and specificity for different wounds/conditions. The safety and efficacy of current preclinical xenogenic applications will favor translation into allogenic clinical applications of EVs as a biologic.

Abstract
Background Fat grafting is one of the most common soft tissue filling methods in plastic surgery. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) transplantation is an effective method for improving graft retention. However, the role of BM-MSCs in fat transplantation is not completely clear. Methods Human fat particles, together with BM-MSCs or PBS as a control, were subcutaneously transplanted into the backs of nude mice. Samples were taken on days 14, 30 and 90 post-grafting to calculate the fat graft retention rate, and tissue staining was evaluated. Furthermore, macrophages were treated with BM-MSC conditioned medium (BM-MSC-CM) to identify the beneficial component secreted by these stem cells. Results In this study, we found that BM-MSCs improved retention by enhancing angiogenesis in fat grafting. Further analysis revealed that BM-MSCs could significantly inhibit the expression of the proinflammatory M1 macrophage markers interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and IL-6 in the early stages of fat grafting and promote the expression of the anti-inflammatory M2 macrophage markers Arg1, IL-10 and VEGF. Furthermore, our results showed that IL-10 secreted by BM-MSCs induced M2 macrophage polarization in vitro. Conclusions BM-MSC transplantation can improve the fat retention rate and promote angiogenesis, which may be related to M2 macrophages. These results help elucidate the role of BM-MSCs in fat grafting.
