Sericin, a silk protein, has a high potential for use as an extracellular matrix in tissue engineering applications. In this study, novel gelatin (GEL) and silk sericin (SS) were incorporated with a polyvinyl alcohol) PVA hydrogel nanocomposite (GEL-SS-PVA) scaffold that can be applied to repair cartilage. Glutaraldehyde was used as a cross-linking agent, with hydrochloric acid acting as an initiator. The microstructure characteristics of the obtained GEL-SS and GEL-SS-PVA scaffolds were also examined using FTIR and XRD spectra and their enhanced thermal stability was assessed by TGA. The blended GEL-SS and GEL-SS-PVA scaffolds were confirmed by SEM analysis to be highly porous with optimum pore sizes of 172 and 58 µm, respectively. Smaller pore sizes and improved uniformity were observed as the concentration of PVA in the GEL-SS-PVA scaffold increased. PVA decreased the tensile strength and elongation of the membranes but increased the modulus. Swelling studies showed high swellability and complete degradation in the presence of phosphate-buffered saline. Cytocompatibility of the GEL-SS-PVA scaffolds showed that these had the highest potential to promote cell proliferation as evaluated with standard microscopy using L929 fibroblasts. The prepared GEL-SS composite scaffold incorporated with the PVA hydrogel was implanted in full-thickness articular cartilage defects in rats. The repair effect of cartilage defects was observed and evaluated among the GEL-SS-PVA, GEL-SS, and control operation groups. The defects were almost completely repaired after 14 weeks in the GEL-SS-PVA group, thereby indicating that the GEL-SS-PVA composite had a favorable effect on articular cartilage defects in rat knee joint repair.As a conventional complication of sepsis, acute kidney injury (AKI) is characterized by high incidence and mortality. Effective management methods are still lacking. Quercetin belongs to a kind of flavonoids that exerts many functions, for example anti-inflammation and anti-fibrosis. However, its function in sepsis AKI is uncertain. Our study therefore set out to assess the function of quercetin in AKI mice model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and human proximal tubular cells (HK-2), including the potential mechanisms. Quercetin was loaded onto a biodegradable polymer carrier (nanoparticle) to enhance its bioavailability. The data showed that quercetin administration strikingly improved renal dysfunction and ameliorated tubular injury caused by LPS in mice. In mice model and in cultured cells, quercetin pretreatment obviously restrained LPS-triggered cell apoptosis and inflammation, including generation of various cytokines. Moreover, the results from mice model and cell model showed that quercetin could diminish IκBα and p65 phosphorylation after LPS treatment. The most significant observation of this study was that quercetin elevated the expression of Sirt1. Transfection of Sirt1 specific shRNA mitigated the suppression of quercetin on cell apoptosis, inflammation and of NF-κB activation triggered by LPS. Therefore, these sequels indicate that quercetin protects against sepsis-associated AKI by upregulation Sirt1 expression through quenching NF-κB activation and may be an encouraging therapeutic agent for patients with sepsis-associated AKI.Continuous delayed endothelium regeneration and continues thrombosis development designate a task for coronary artery stent rehabilitation. To progress the direct vascular cell behavior, aneurysms treatments and compatibility of cardiovascular implants novel copper intercalated polyurethane heparin/poly-L-lysine chelates treated stent has established in this report. The functional group modifications, structural characteristics, and stability of the chelates have investigated for polyurethane heparin poly-L-lysine, copper intercalated polyurethane heparin/poly-L-lysine coated stents. The FTIR results showed the copper intercalation at 446 cmr and the Cu 2s peak at 932 eV from XPS also indicated that the successful coating of copper, polyurethane heparin, poly-L-lysine. The relative surface geomorphology of the chelates displayed the uniform Cu coating consisting of multilayer poly-L-lysine on the substrate. The stability and biocompatibility studies indicated the significantly enhanced performance with clot the APTT and TT periods as clotting and cell proliferation assessments. This type of composite proposes a stage on a stent external area for discerning track of vascular cell performance and aneurysms treatments with low side effects.Imaging-guided cancer theranostic is a promising strategy for cancer diagnostic and therapeutic. Photodynamic therapy (PDT), as an approved treatment modality, is limited by the poor solubility and dispersion of photosensitizers (PS) in biological fluids. Herein, it is demonstrated that superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO)-based nanoparticles (SCFs), prepared by conjugated with Chlorin e6 (Ce6) and modified with folic acid (FA) on the surface, can be used as versatile drug delivery vehicles for effective PDT. check details The nanoparticles are great carriers for photosensitizer Ce6 with an extremely high loading efficiency. In vitro fluorescence imaging and in vivo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results indicated that SCFs selectively accumulated in tumor cells. Under near-infrared laser irradiation, SCFs were confirmed to be capable of inducing low cell viability of RM-1 cells In vitro and displaying efficient tumor ablation with negligible side effects in tumor-bearing mice models.Heterotopic ossification is a bona fide bone formation outside the normal skeleton. Traumatic injury and genetic mutations are the important risk factors of HO. Both injury-induced HO and hereditary HO severely affect human life quality. However, there were no effect therapies treating HO. Here, we performed the RNA-sequencing assay to examine dynamic process during HO initiation and development. Moreover, we found that oxidation-reduction process were significantly dysregulated following HO formation. Further, we characterized that Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) expression conferred antioxidant property in macrophages and then helped chondrocytes formation. Instead, 3-Nitrotyrosine is expressed by T-lymphocytes, but not macrophages, causing deficient adaptive immunity. Inhibition of NRF2 markedly alleviated HO. Finally, we identified that PI3K/AKT signaling pathway is responsible for whole HO process, but ERK signaling is activated only in early stage. ERK pathway blockade effectively prevented HO.
