The Lupus Damage Index Revision Program: Results From the Item Generation and Reduction Phases

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective A data‐driven and expert/patient consensus‐based project to develop a revised Systemic Lupus International Collaborating Clinics (SLICC)/American College of Rheumatology (ACR) Damage Index (SDI) is under way supported by SLICC, ACR, and the Lupus Foundation of America. Our objective is to report the item generation and reduction phase results

Studies on the mechanism of action of the chemotherapeutic drug bleomycin on cell lines derived from haemangioma and keloid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bleomycin has been used successfully in the treatment of haemangioma, keloid and vascular malformation; however the mode of action of this chemotherapeutic drug on these non-malignant dysplasias is not well understood.

Functional histopathology of keloid disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Keloid disease is a benign, yet locally aggressive and recurrent cutaneous fibroproliferative condition characterised by excessive scarring. Unique to humans, keloids represent the end-point of a spectrum of abnormal wound healing, are aesthetically ...

Defining a Unique Gene Expression Profile in Mature and Developing Keloids

open access: yesJID Innovations, 2023
Keloids are benign, fibroproliferative dermal tumors that typically form owing to abnormal wound healing. The current standard of care is generally ineffective and does not prevent recurrence.

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Dual‐Targeting Biomimetic Nanozymes Loaded Microneedle Patch Promotes Scarless Wound Healing Through Anti‐Inflammatory and Anti‐Fibrotic Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed a dual‐targeting biomimetic nanozyme hybrid system (Cu‐CeO2@ABs‐FTP) and integrated it with HAMA hydrogel to fabricate a microneedle patch (CAF@MN). The patch promotes fibroblast‐mediated wound repair, targets macrophages to induce M2 polarization, and targets myofibroblasts to exert anti‐fibrotic effects, thereby enabling rapid ...

Pharmacotherapy of keloid scars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
grantor: University of TorontoKeloid scars arise from exuberant tissue growth; increased extracellular matrix (ECM) production combined with decreased ECM degradation. Darker-skinned people are predisposed to keloid scars formation.

Dasatinib Attenuates Fibrosis in Keloids by Decreasing Senescent Cell Burden

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2023
Keloids are skin tumours caused by aberrant growth of dermal fibroblasts. Cellular senescence contributes to aging and various pathological conditions, including cancer, atherosclerosis, and fibrotic diseases.

A CD14‐Targeting In Situ Hydrogel Directs Macrophage Reprogramming to Minimize Scar Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A CD14‐targeting in situ hydrogel formed from a microbial polysaccharide rapidly remodels the immune microenvironment by reprogramming macrophage polarization, suppressing excessive inflammation, and coordinating tissue regeneration. This multifunctional hydrogel promotes scar‐reduced wound repair through enhanced angiogenesis, collagen remodeling, and
