Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...

Targeting PCSK9 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells: An Effective Strategy to Suppress Ferroptosis and Attenuate Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Progression

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PCSK9 aggravates AAA by promoting ferroptosis in VSMCs. In the pathological AAA environment, PCSK9 upregulation triggers ferritinophagy‐dependent degradation of FTH1, leading to Fe2+ release, triggering lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis, exacerbating AAA.

Application of Thermally Responsive Elastin-like Polypeptide Fused to a Lactoferrin-derived Peptide for Treatment of Pancreatic Cancer

open access: yesMolecules, 2009
A well characterized, peptide derivative of bovine lactoferrin, L12, has been shown to possess anticancer properties in multiple cell lines. However, adverse side effects in normal tissues and poor plasma kinetics that hinder the clinical effectiveness ...

Sclerostin regulates bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) bioavailability through interactions with BMP complexes and fibrillin microfibrils

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Sclerostin (SOST) is a multifunctional extracellular modulator of BMP and Wnt signaling. SOST binds with high affinity to fibrillin‐1 and fibrillin‐2, localizing it to fibrillin microfibrils and regulating its extracellular bioavailability. Fibrillin‐bound SOST cannot engage BMP‐7 prodomain (PD) complexes, revealing a competitive mechanism that ...

The harnessing potential of carboxymethyl beta glucan: A driver of skin repair

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Carboxymethyl Beta‐Glucan (CM‐BG) drives skin repair through multifaceted actions, notably in wounded 3D models. It activates Dectin‐1 and mitigates inflammation (reducing pro‐inflammatory mediators, boosting anti‐inflammatory IL‐10) in cellular models, while enhancing epidermal differentiation and collagen I synthesis by fibroblasts across cellular ...

Ideal soft tissue graft in periodontal and peri‐implant applications: A scoping review

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Soft tissue grafts (STG) are used in a wide range of clinical situations including volume augmentation, keratinized tissue increase, and recession coverage around teeth and implants. Each STG, produced from different sources and processed with various techniques, possesses unique material properties and interaction with the host tissues, which

Understanding extracellular vesicles in antiaging

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Aging is a multifactorial process marked by gradual cellular dysregulation, regulated by hallmarks, including genomic instability, mitochondrial dysregulation, and chronic inflammation. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), especially exosomes, have emerged as pivotal mediators of cell‐to‐cell communication with potential roles in both ...

Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...

Avian Eggshell Evolutionary Adaptations Inform Biomimetic Strategies for Next‑Generation Precision Cancer Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Oncology, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The avian eggshell is a sophisticated, multi‐functional biocomposite and, more importantly, an autonomous life‐support system evolved to safeguard embryonic development across dynamic and hostile environments. Discussing eggshell‐inspired biomaterials beyond simple structural imitation, this review translates these evolutionary survival ...
