Abstract
Challenges such as difficult wound healing, ischemic necrosis of skin flaps, and skin aging are prevalent in plastic surgery. Previous research has indeed suggested that these challenges in plastic surgery are often linked to cellular energy barriers. As the powerhouses of the cell, mitochondria play a critical role in sustaining cellular vitality and health. Fundamentally, issues like ischemic and hypoxic damage to organs and tissues, as well as aging, stem from mitochondrial dysfunction, which leads to a depletion of cellular energy. Hence, having an adequate number of high-quality, healthy mitochondria is vital for maintaining tissue stability and cell survival. In recent years, there has been preliminary exploration into the protective effects of mitochondrial transplantation against cellular damage in systems such as the nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems. For plastic surgery, mitochondrial transplantation is an extremely advanced research topic. This review focuses on the novel applications and future prospects of mitochondrial transplantation in plastic surgery, providing insights for clinicians and researchers, and offering guidance to patients seeking innovative and effective treatment options.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
