Summary: Exosomes derived from human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have shown excellent capability in improving wound healing quality, but their efficacy in clinical applications is still uncertain. This study conducted a systematic review of preclinical studies comparing exosomes from human ADSCs with placebo in animal models of wound closure. The results showed that administration of exosomes derived from human ADSCs significantly improved wound closure compared to controls, with the same effect as ADSCs. The therapeutic effect was further enhanced by modified ADSC-EV. This suggests that exosomes derived from human ADSCs, especially after enrichment for specific non-coding RNA, have promising potential to improve healing efficiency.

Summary: Engineered skin substitutes derived from human skin reduce inflammatory reactions and are easier to use in clinics. Type I collagen and platelet-rich plasma are mixed to form a stable scaffold, while adipose mesenchymal stem cell derived exosomes improve the performance of the engineered skin. This method provides a new therapeutic strategy and theoretical basis for tissue regeneration and wound repair.

Summary: By incorporating hyaluronic acid (HA) into electrospun poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA)/gelatin (PG) fibrous membrane scaffolds (FMS), PLGA/gelatin/HA (PGH) FMS was fabricated for 3D culture and delivery of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). PGH/ASC treatment accelerates wound healing in rats by modulating immune reaction, promoting angiogenesis, and reducing scar formation at the wound sites.

Summary: This study investigated the potential clinical application roles of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSC) and hADSC-derived exosomes (hADSC-Exo) in cutaneous wound healing. The combined administration of local hADSC-Exo smearing and hADSC/hADSC-Exo intravenous administration showed additional benefits in promoting wound healing, accelerating re-epithelialization, reducing scar widths, and enhancing angiogenesis and collagen synthesis.

Summary: Wound healing is a complex process that involves multiple phases, including inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Abnormal inflammation can impede wound healing under certain pathological conditions. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and their secreted extracellular vesicles (ADSC-EVs) have shown potential in promoting wound healing by inhibiting abnormal inflammation responses.

Summary: The study demonstrates that human adipose-derived stem cells can promote the vascularization of seawater-treated wounds by differentiating into vascular endothelial cells and promoting their proliferation and migration. Bioinformatics analysis identified genes that may regulate wound healing mechanisms such as extracellular matrix remodeling, programmed cell death, inflammation, and vascularization.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs)-derived exosomes loaded bioengineered micro-porous three-dimensional amniotic membrane-scaffold (AMS) on healing in diabetic rats. The results showed that the treated groups, especially the AMS + Exo group, had significantly higher wound closure rate, volumes of newly formed epidermis and dermis, density of fibroblasts and proliferating cells, blood vessel length density, collagen density, and tensiometrical parameters compared to the control group. The expression of TGF-β, bFGF, and VEGF genes was significantly upregulated in all treated groups, while the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β, as well as cell densities of neutrophils, M1 macrophages, and mast cells, decreased more in the AMS + Exo group.

Summary: The lack of suitable scaffold and blood supply, as well as the shortage of growth factors, are the main factors contributing to non-optimal healing of diabetic wounds. In this study, a combination of a bioengineered decellularized amniotic membrane-scaffold and adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) was investigated for its potential in promoting healing in ischemic wounds in type 1 diabetic rats. The results showed that the treatment groups had significantly higher rates of wound closure, volumes of new epidermis and dermis, densities of fibroblasts and blood vessels, numbers of proliferating cells and collagen deposition, as well as better biomechanical properties of the healed wounds compared to the untreated group. The DAMS+ASC group exhibited the most favorable outcomes. Overall, using both DAMS engraftment and ASC transplantation had a greater impact on diabetic wound healing.

Summary: This study demonstrated that deposition of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) films by thermal atomic layer deposition (T-ALD) can improve anticoagulation of the PVC tubing system. T-ALD had a relative hydrophilicity compared with blank PVC and plasma-enhanced ALD (PE-ALD). Whole blood immersion tests showed that blood clots formed on blank PVC and a large amount of red blood cells was found on PE-ALD substrates, whereas less blood cells were noted in T-ALD samples.

Summary: In this study, silk fibroin-based microneedle patches were fabricated as carriers for adipose stem cell recruitment. The crystallinity of silk fibroin-based microneedles was determined after water annealing treatment. The results showed that the microneedle patches had sufficient strength to penetrate the skin and demonstrated sustained release of the model drug. Dual-layer microneedles loaded with SDF-1 were prepared to enhance drug release for stem cell recruitment.

Summary: This study evaluates the potential of self-assembled adipose-derived stem cell spheroids (ADsp) in microbial transglutaminase cross-linked gelatin hydrogel (mTG) for treating diabetic periodontal wounds and craniofacial defects. The results show that osteogenically pretreated ADsp-mTG can promote the regeneration of diabetic osseous defects. This suggests that ADsp-mTG can facilitate diabetic periodontal wound healing and craniofacial osseous defect regeneration.

Summary: Electric cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) is an innovative approach for the label-free and real-time detection of cell morphology, growth, and apoptosis. In this study, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly-(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) conducting polymer (CP)-based bioelectrodes were developed for the simultaneous drug release and real-time biosensing of cancer cell viability. This device can reliably monitor impedance signal changes correlated with cell viability while exhibiting excellent properties for both drug encapsulation and on-demand release.
