This review highlights that incorporating nanomaterials into scaffolds can significantly enhance angiogenesis in tissue regeneration by simulating extracellular matrix structures and effectively delivering angiogenesis-related factors, offering promising designs for vascularization and therapeutic applications.

This study reports that in ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma, overexpressed S100A4 likely promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cell properties, affecting tumor behavior through its interaction with NMIIA and mutant p53.

This review discusses the roles of tissue-specific and mesenchymal stromal cells in tissue repair and reparative disorders, highlighting potential therapeutic targets for muscle, heart, and lung tissues.

In this review, researchers explored thermo-responsive polymers and their applications in nanomedicine, highlighting their role in targeted drug delivery, gene therapy, and imaging, enabled by their temperature-sensitive phase transitions to ensure localized therapeutic action and minimize damage to healthy tissues.

This study found that vertical sleeve gastrectomy improved metabolic, behavioral, and reproductive symptoms in a rat model of PCOS, suggesting it may be a potential therapy for specific aspects of PCOS.

This study found that biliverdin beta and delta, metabolites of heme, play a critical role in Pseudomonas aeruginosa iron acquisition and cooperative behaviors, which are crucial for the bacterium's long-term infection in cystic fibrosis patients, suggesting potential targets for new therapies.

This comprehensive review suggests that CD44 signaling plays a significant role in post-natal skin wound healing and scar formation, with potential for therapeutic approaches targeting CD44 to shift from fibrotic scarring towards regenerative healing, including wound regeneration and hair neogenesis.

This case report describes a 4-year-old boy with autism and a rare condition causing precocious puberty, where treatment for hyperandrogenism unexpectedly intensified his aggressive behavior.

This source discusses the complexity of cancer research, emphasizing that despite extensive studies, a comprehensive understanding of metastatic progression and therapeutic development remains elusive, and underscores the importance of animal models in breast cancer research.

This review provides an overview of various animal models used to study glucocorticoid-induced humanlike disorders, highlighting their utility in understanding side effects across multiple body systems, such as hypertension, osteoporosis, and depression-like behavior.

This review discusses the influence of androgens on opioid-mediated effects and calls for further research into their role in sex differences and potential therapeutic options for chronic pain and substance use disorders.

In this case report, a patient with alopecia universalis experienced hair regrowth after clinical islet transplantation, which may indicate the potential impact of immunosuppressive therapy on this autoimmune condition.

This study provides evidence that a pragmatic lifestyle intervention combining exercise and dietary advice may improve health outcomes in men with advanced prostate cancer receiving androgen suppression therapy.

This study suggests that human skin locally synthesizes active sex steroid hormones, impacting inflammation, cell behavior, and wound healing, with potential implications for therapies in aging and impaired wound recovery.

In this study with a mouse model of catamenial epilepsy, ferulic acid may effectively reduce seizure susceptibility and depression-like behavior by influencing hormone levels and neurotransmitter activity.

This study demonstrated that stress-derived neurosteroid THDOC shifts from inhibiting to activating the HPA axis under stress, presenting potential therapeutic targets for stress-related disorders.

This review highlights how engineered hydrogels can modulate immune niches and serve as in vivo models to study them, noting collaboration is needed to advance therapeutic outcomes.
