Current Trends and Future Prospects of Integrating Electrospinning With 3D Printing Techniques for Mimicking Bone Extracellular Matrix Scaffolds

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1481-1504, 15 March 2025.
ABSTRACT This article presents a review of the recent findings on the combination of electrospun nanofibers and three‐dimensional (3D)‐printed structures for extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. We explore the synergy between electrospinning (ES), which produces highly porous, fibrous structures from materials like collagen

Urinary Soluble Collagen Levels Are Associated With Moderate/Severe LUTS

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Expansion of the stromal compartment of the prostate concurrent with fibroblast activation and increased collagenization is now recognized as a pathobiology likely contributing to Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS). However, approaches to quantitatively and, ideally, non‐invasively, assess prostatic collagenization in vivo are not ...

Exploiting Phase Partitioning of a Giant Trimeric Fibrous Protein Scaffold to Potentiate Chitinase‐Driven Antifungal Activity

Small, EarlyView.
Cstalk, a giant fibrous protein, selectively partitions into the dextran‐rich phase in polyethylene glycol/dextran aqueous two‐phase systems, functioning as a recruiter for proteins of interest. This phase‐selective recruitment can be extended to fungal cell walls, enabling the targeted localization of enzymes and enhancing antifungal activity through ...

Advances in deep‐tissue fluorescence imaging through optical clearing: A review

VIEW, EarlyView.
Optical clearing refers to techniques that are used to improve the optical transparency of biological tissues. Optical clearing enables imaging of deeper lying tissues as well as 3D volumetric imaging of whole organs. This review examines reports on the integration of optical clearing with advanced fluorescence imaging techniques, with particular ...

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

VIEW, 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 ...

Exploring the Correlation Between Surgical Depth and Postoperative Voice Rest Duration in a Rabbit Phonomicrosurgery Model

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The optimal duration of voice rest after phonomicrosurgery remains a subject of debate, as clinical studies on its effect on vocal fold wound healing have yielded conflicting results, and a controlled animal model for investigating voice rest is currently unavailable. This study aimed to determine the optimal postoperative voice rest

Long non‐coding RNAs at the crossroads of inflammation, cancer and angiogenesis: Molecular mechanisms and their potential as therapeutic targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a broad class of non‐protein‐coding RNAs, are characterized as new regulators of gene expression at the epigenetic, transcriptional, and post‐transcriptional level. Thus, lncRNAs are involved in the regulation of physiological processes and the development of human diseases and cancer by modulating proinflammatory ...

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

Cell 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.
