Abstract Background Esophageal strictures significantly impair patient quality of life and present a therapeutic challenge, particularly due to the high recurrence post-ESD/EMR. Current treatments manage symptoms rather than addressing disease's etiology. This review concentrates on mechanisms esophageal stricture formation recurrence, seeking highlight areas for potential intervention. Methods A literature search was conducted through PUBMED using terms: stricture, mucosal resection, submucosal dissection. Relevant articles were identified manual with reference lists reviewed additional articles. Results Preclinical studies data from animal suggest that may lead include overdifferentiation fibroblasts, inflammatory response is not healed in time, impaired epithelial barrier function, multimethod factors leading it. Dysfunction be initiating mechanism stricture. Achieving perfect in-epithelialization by tissue-engineered fabrication cell patches has been shown effective treatment prevention strictures. Conclusion The development involves three stages: structural damage (EEB), chronic inflammation, severe fibrosis, which dysfunction or EEB Re-epithelialization essential information will help clinicians scientists develop techniques treat future.

Most chronic inflammatory illnesses include fibrosis as a pathogenic characteristic. Extracellular matrix (ECM) components build up in excess to cause or scarring. The fibrotic process finally results organ malfunction and death if it is severely progressive. Fibrosis affects nearly all tissues of the body. associated with inflammation, metabolic homeostasis, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) signaling, where balance between oxidant antioxidant systems appears be key modulator managing these processes. Virtually every system, including lungs, heart, kidney, liver, can affected by fibrosis, which characterized an excessive accumulation connective tissue components. Organ frequently caused remodeling, also linked high morbidity mortality. Up 45% fatalities industrialized world are damage any organ.

Chronic complications of diabetes are due to myriad disorders numerous metabolic pathways that responsible for most the morbidity and mortality associated with disease. Traditionally, divided into those microvascular macrovascular origin. We suggest revising this antiquated classification vascular, parenchymal, hybrid (both vascular parenchymal) tissue origin, since profile ranges from involving only tissues mostly parenchymal organs. A major paradigm shift has occurred in recent years regarding pathogenesis complications, which focus shifted studies on risks interplay between risk protective factors. While factors clearly important development chronic diabetes, have established equally significant modulating severity complications. These responses may help explain differential even lack pathologies, some tissues. Nevertheless, despite growing number field, comprehensive reviews their mechanisms action not available. This review thus focused clinical, biochemical, molecular support idea endogenous factors, roles initiation progression diabetes. In addition, also aimed identify main needs field future studies.

Abstract Extracellular vesicles (EVs), a cluster of cell-secreted lipid bilayer nanoscale particles, universally exist in body fluids, as well cell and tissue culture supernatants. Over the past years, increasing attention have been paid to important role EVs effective intercellular communicators fibrotic diseases. Notably, EV cargos, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, metabolites, are reported be disease-specific can even contribute fibrosis pathology. Thus, considered biomarkers for disease diagnosis prognosis. Emerging evidence shows that derived from stem/progenitor cells great prospects cell-free therapy various preclinical models diseases engineered improve targeting effectiveness their treatment. In this review, we will focus on biological functions mechanisms diseases, potential novel therapeutic strategies.

Accumulating evidence indicates that most primary Wharton’s jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) therapeutic potential is due to their paracrine activity, i.e., ability modulate microenvironment by releasing bioactive molecules and factors collectively known as secretome. These can either be released directly into the surrounding or embedded within membrane-bound extracellular nano-sized (usually 30–150 nm) messenger particles vesicles of endosomal origin with specific route biogenesis, exosomes carried relatively larger (100 nm–1 μm) formed outward blebbing plasma membrane called microvesicles (MVs); MVs are (EVs). The found in secretome various types, including cytokines, chemokines, cytoskeletal proteins, integrins, growth factors, angiogenic mediators, hormones, metabolites, regulatory nucleic acid molecules. As expected, performs different biological functions, such immunomodulation, tissue replenishment, cellular homeostasis, besides possessing anti-inflammatory anti-fibrotic effects. This review highlights current advances research on WJ-MSCs’ its prospective clinical applications.
