As a complex and dynamically regulated process, wound healing is collaboratively carried out by multiple types of cells. However, the precise mechanisms which these cells contribute to immune regulation are not yet fully understood. Although research on bone regeneration has been quite extensive, application bioactive glass (BG) in skin tissue repair remains still relatively underexplored. The review focuses principles latest progress using BGs for repair, highlighting BGs’ special performance requirements, including biological activity, biocompatibility, biodegradability, antibacterial properties, emphasizing their potential repair. In addition, play substantial role regulating various inflammatory (neutrophils, macrophages, mast cells, etc.) [fibroblasts, vascular endothelial mesenchymal stem (MSCs), etc.] involved healing. also covers recent developments composite materials incorporating BGs, demonstrating ability promote angiogenesis, inhibit biofilms, improve responses chronic wounds. Furthermore, have shown effectiveness promoting epithelial collagen deposition burn wounds as well applications scar management post-tumor resection care. Finally, we summarize our views challenges directions emerging field future.

Bronchial asthma (asthma) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways that remains an unresolved problem. Reportedly M2 macrophages and exosomes play role in inflammation, including asthma. We investigated roles macrophage-derived (M2-Exos) effect asthmatic progression by using ovalbumin (OVA) induced mice model. M2-Exos significantly ameliorated pulmonary response airway hyperresponsiveness suppressed aberrant proliferation transient receptor potential polycystic protein 2(TRPP2) expression LPS-stimulated primary smooth muscle cells (ASMCs). Then, we found miR-186-5p could target TRPP2 through online database analysis. However, downregulation inhibitors decreased protective mouse cellular models. was identified selectively combined with polycystin-2 gene encoding protein, inhibited production, downregulated expression. A reduction number calcium (Ca) channels formed on cell membrane leads to intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+] i), causing reduced ASMC contraction proliferation, thereby improving remodeling Collectively, conclude exosomal alleviate though downregulating These results may offer novel insight treatment drug delivery

Background/Objectives: Tumour-associated macrophages (TAMs) are critical components of the tumour microenvironment (TME), significantly influencing cancer progression and treatment resistance. This review aims to explore innovative use engineered bacteria reprogram TAMs, enhancing their anti-tumour functions improving therapeutic outcomes. Methods: We conducted a systematic following predefined protocol. Multiple databases were searched identify relevant studies on phenotypic plasticity, for reprogramming. Inclusion exclusion criteria applied select studies, data extracted using standardised forms. Data synthesis was performed summarise findings, focusing mechanisms benefits non-pathogenic modify TAMs. Results: The summarises findings that can selectively target promoting shift from tumour-promoting M2 phenotype tumour-fighting M1 phenotype. reprogramming enhances pro-inflammatory responses activity within TME. Evidence various indicates significant regression improved immune bacterial therapy. Conclusions: Reprogramming TAMs presents promising strategy approach leverages natural targeting abilities directly tumour, potentially patient outcomes offering new insights into immune-based treatments. Further research is needed optimise these methods assess clinical applicability.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a life-threatening condition characterized by rapid decline in the renal function, primarily caused oxidative stress, inflammation, and ferroptosis. Herein, we present selenium-doped carbon dots (Zt-SeCDs) that integrate antioxidant activity with controlled release of Zileuton, 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5) inhibitor, under high reactive oxygen species (ROS) conditions. This nanoplatform can efficiently deliver leveraging its inherent properties to achieve targeted prevention treatment AKI. In vitro studies have confirmed Zt-SeCDs eliminate excessive ROS, prevent ferroptotic cell death, modulate inflammatory responses reducing expression key pro-inflammatory cytokines. Additionally, regulate ferroptosis through suppression ALOX5 upregulation glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) expression. The significantly improves promotes regeneration damaged tissue, alleviates processes, death. Moreover, monitoring serum indicators observing pathological changes further potential preventing Notably, activate AMPK/FoxO1 signaling pathway, enhancing endogenous defenses protect tissue from damage. promising not only holds significant promise for AKI, but also aims facilitate clinical application.
