Promotion of DFU Wound Healing via BRG1–COL16A1 Axis in Fibroblasts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In normal wound healing, transcription factor BRG1 is upregulated and binds the COL16A1 promoter to enhance its expression, promoting fibroblast proliferation, migration, contraction, extracellular matrix deposition, and granulation tissue formation, thus accelerating wound closure.

Thermally Degradable Biocompatible Hydrogel as Transient Encapsulation Coating for Implantable Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A biocompatible hydrogel coating with tissue‐like mechanics and reversible dissolution triggered by a mild, physiologically compatible temperature drop (≈37°C → ≈25°C) was developed for the transient encapsulation of implantable devices. The physically crosslinked methylcellulose, polyethylene glycol and polyacrilic acid (MC/PEG/PAA) hydrogel ...

A Chirality‐Converted Bacteriolytic Dodecapeptide Regulates Vibrio‐Induced Polymicrobial Infection and Ameliorates Invasion‐Associated Gut Microbiota Disequilibrium

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Multidrug‐resistant Vibrio infections are rising rapidly and threaten coastal populations worldwide. This study introduces D‐zp37, a chirality‐engineered antimicrobial peptide with exceptional potency against resistant Vibrio species. D‐zp37 kills planktonic cells, blocks mixed‐species biofilms, disrupts essential bacterial stress responses, and shows ...

Constipation and Obstructed Defecation [PDF]

open access: yesClinics in Colon and Rectal Surgery, 2007
Difficulties with bowel function are common and may be due to several causes including slow colonic transit and obstructed defecation. The anatomical and pathophysiological changes associated with these conditions are varying, often incompletely understood, and in many cases have limited treatment outcomes. Patients present with variable complaints and
