Background Ischemic injury is a primary cause of distal flap necrosis. Previous studies have shown that Flufenamic acid (FFA) can reduce inflammation, decrease oxidative stress (OS), and promote angiogenesis, suggesting its potential role in protecting flaps from ischemic damage. This study investigated the effects and mechanisms of FFA in enhancing the survival of ischemic flaps. Methods The viability of ischemic flaps was evaluated using laser doppler blood flow (LDBF) and survival rates. We examined levels of pyroptosis, OS, transcription factor E3 (TFE3)-induced autophagy, and elements of the AMPK-TRPML1-Calcineurin pathway through western blotting (WB), immunofluorescence (IF), molecular docking (MD), cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Results The findings suggest that FFA significantly enhances the viability of ischemic flaps. The improvement in flap survival associated with FFA can be attributed to increased autophagy, diminished OS, and the suppression of pyroptosis. Notably, the promotion of autophagy flux and an augmented resistance to OS are instrumental in curbing pyroptosis in these flaps. Activation of TFE3 by FFA promoted autophagy and diminished oxidative damage. The therapeutic effects of FFA were negated when TFE3 levels were decreased using adeno-associated virus (AAV)-TFE3shRNA. Additionally, FFA modified TFE3 activity through the AMPK-TRPML1-Calcineurin pathway. Conclusions FFA promotes ischemic flap survival via induction of autophagy and suppression of oxidative stress by activation of the AMPK-TRPML1-Calcineurin-TFE3 signaling pathway. These findings could have therapeutic implications.

Background Airway obstruction is a common emergency in acute burns with high mortality. Tracheostomy is the most effective method to keep patency of airway and start mechanical ventilation. However, the indication of tracheostomy is challenging and controversial. We aimed to develop and validate a deployable machine learning (ML)-based decision support system to predict the necessity of tracheostomy for acute burn patients. Methods We enrolled 1011 burn patients from Southwest Hospital (2018–2020) for model development and feature selection. The final model was validated on an independent internal cross-temporal cohort (2021, n = 274) and an external cross-institutional cohort (Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine 2020–2021, n = 376). To improve the model’s deployment and interpretability, an ML-based nomogram, an online calculator, and an abbreviated scale were constructed and validated. Results The optimal model was the eXtreme Gradient Boosting classifier (XGB), which achieved an AUROC of 0.973 and AUPRC of 0.879 in training dataset, and AUROCs of greater than 0.95 in both cross-temporal and cross-institutional validation. Moreover, it kept stable discriminatory ability in validation subgroups stratified by sex, age, burn area, and inhalation injury (AUROC ranging 0.903–0.990). The analysis of calibration curve, decision curve, and score distribution proved the feasibility and reliability of the ML-based nomogram, abbreviated scale, and online calculator. Conclusions The developed system has strong predictive ability and generalizability in cross-temporal and cross-institutional evaluations. The nomogram, online calculator, and abbreviated scale based on machine learning show comparable prediction performance and can be deployed in broader application scenarios, especially in resource-limited clinical environments.

Wound healing is a complex biological process involving multiple steps, including hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. A novel form of regulated cell death, ferroptosis, has garnered attention because of its involvement in these processes. Ferroptosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid peroxides and is tightly regulated by lipid metabolism, iron metabolism, and the lipid-peroxide repair network, all of which exert a significant influence on wound healing. This review highlights the current findings and emerging concepts regarding the multifaceted roles of ferroptosis throughout the stages of normal and chronic wound healing. Additionally, the potential of targeted interventions aimed at modulating ferroptosis to improve wound-healing outcomes is discussed.

The epidermis is the outermost layer of the skin and acts as the primary barrier to protect the body. Dendritic epidermal T cells (DETCs), which are specifically distributed in epidermal tissues, play a crucial role in skin immune surveillance and wound healing. DETCs are one of the most important components of the epidermis and exert a steady-state monitoring function, facilitating wound healing and tissue regeneration after skin injury. Skin wounds are often linked to other pathological conditions such as ageing, ultraviolet radiation, and metabolic diseases such as diabetes mellitus and obesity. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate how DETCs regulate themselves and the external environment during these pathological states. DETCs interact closely with keratinocytes in the epidermis, and this intercellular interaction may be essential for maintaining health and integrity. In this review, we focus on the characteristics and underlying mechanisms of DETCs in maintaining epidermal homeostasis and re-epithelialization in different pathological states.

The engineered extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from pluripotent stem cells are a new concept in regenerative medicine. These vesicles are secreted from the embryonic stem cells as well as the induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and are involved in the transfer of bioactive molecules required for cell signaling. This review describes the possibilities for their use in the modification of therapeutic approaches in regenerative medicine and targeted therapies. Pluripotent stem cells can differentiate into various cell types which can be useful for tissue engineering or to generate models of diseases in a dish. Compared to cell therapies, engineered EVs are characterized by lower immunogenicity, higher targetability, and improved stability. Some of the applications are angiogenic, tissue restorative, immunomodulatory, and gene therapies for the treatment of certain diseases. iPSC-derived engineered EVs find application in regenerative medicine, drug delivery systems, diagnostics of diseases, and hydrogel systems. In regenerative medicine, they can promote the restoration of cardiac, bone, cartilage, and corneal tissues. Engineered EVs are also employed in drug targeting to particular sites as well as in the diagnosis of diseases based on biomarkers and improving image contrast. Hydrogels that contain EVs provide a depot-based delivery system to slowly release drugs in a controlled manner which enhances tissue repair. Thus, the results described above demonstrate the potential of engineered PSC-EVs for various biomedical applications. Future work will be directed toward expanding the knowledge of engineered PSC-EVs and their possibilities to create new therapeutic approaches based on the functions of these vesicles.

Background Peripheral nerves are easily damaged in accidental trauma due to their shallow location. Compared to the limited regeneration of the central nerve, the peripheral nerve has a certain regenerative ability after injury. However, this ability is not sufficient to achieve functional recovery. To increase the rate of regeneration after nerve injury, increasing regeneration-associated genes (RAGs) expression by transcription factors in neurons is necessary. Methods Sciatic nerve crush (SNC) animal models were generated in Sprague–Dawley (SD) rats. Bioinformatics analysis and real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were applied to detect genes expression; immunofluorescence staining and western blotting were applied to detect protein expression. The neurites outgrowth of cultured DRG neurons was performed to evaluate axon regeneration in vitro. Intrathecal injection of adeno-associated virus (AAV) was applied to suppress or overexpress the target in vivo. Following transfection, immunofluorescence staining of newborn axons’ marker (SCG10) in sciatic nerve after crush was used to evaluate the function of AT-rich interaction domain 5A (Arid5a) or docking protein 6 (Dok6) on axon regeneration. The binding between TF and the promoter of target genes was verified by chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). Result has high activity in specific regenerating clusters and it accumulates specifically in the nucleus of DRG neurons after sciatic nerve injury. Upon Arid5a inhibition by siRNA, the outgrowth of neurites in vitro and the regeneration of axons in vivo were inhibited. In contrast, after Arid5a overexpression in rats, axon regeneration was significantly accelerated. In addition, Arid5a promotes the expression of Dok6 by binding to its promoter in DRG neurons. Suppression of Dok6 represses the neurites outgrowth of cultured DRG neurons, while its overexpression enhances axon regeneration in vivo. Furthermore, overexpression of Dok6 restored the impaired effect of Arid5a suppression on axon regeneration. Conclusions These findings indicate that axonal injury induced nucleus accumulation of Arid5a in neurons. Through Dok6, Arid5a accelerates axon regeneration of DRG neurons both in vitro and in vivo. This study enriched our understanding the function of Arid5a in the peripheral nervous system and the transcriptional regulatory network involved in neural regeneration.

In recent years, with the increasing volume of related research, it has become apparent that the liver and gut play important roles in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. Considering the interactions among the brain, liver, and gut, the brain–liver–gut axis has been proposed and gradually recognized. In this article, we summarized the complex network of interactions within the brain–liver–gut axis, encompassing the vagus nerve, barrier permeability, immunity and inflammation, the blood–brain barrier, gut microbial metabolites, the gut barrier, neurotoxic metabolites, and beta-amyloid (Aβ) metabolism. We also elaborated on the impact of the brain–liver–gut axis on various neurological disorders. Furthermore, we outline several therapies aimed at modulating the brain–liver–gut axis, including antibiotics, probiotics and prebiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), and dietary interventions. The focus is on elucidating possible mechanisms underlying neurological disorders pathogenesis and identifying effective treatments that are based on our understanding of the brain–liver–gut axis.

The focus is on elucidating possible mechanisms underlying neurological disorders pathogenesis and identifying effective treatments that are based on our understanding of the brain–liver–gut axis.","PeriodicalId":9553,"journal":{"name":"Burns & Trauma","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143375368","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
