Summary: The existing treatment modalities for skin injuries, such as dressings, negative-pressure wound treatment, autologous skin grafting, and high-pressure wound treatment, have limitations such as high time cost and inability to remove inactivated tissue in a timely manner. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have great potential in cell therapy and regenerative medicine due to their unique self-renewal ability and differentiation potential. The addition of collagen to cell cultures promotes cell proliferation and accelerates the healing of skin wounds in mice and canines by promoting epidermal layer repair, collagen deposition, hair follicle angiogenesis, and an inflammatory response.

Summary: The article discusses the role of autophagy in wound healing, including its anti-infection and inflammation regulatory functions in the inflammatory phase, its promotion of cell survival, angiogenesis, and cell differentiation in the proliferative phase, and its impact on hypertrophic scar formation in the remodeling phase. The article also highlights the association between autophagy and refractory diabetic wounds, and suggests that understanding autophagy regulation and molecular mechanisms can provide novel strategies for wound healing treatment.

Summary: Diabetic foot is a common complication of diabetes and often leads to amputation. Previous studies have shown that stem cell transplantation can promote the healing of chronic diabetic wounds, but safety concerns have limited its clinical application. Recently, it has been discovered that mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) have similar therapeutic effects and offer advantages such as safety and reduced immune response. This paper summarizes the current understanding of mesenchymal stem cell-derived EVs in accelerating the healing of diabetic wounds and their potential clinical applications.

Summary: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) is a severe complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) that can lead to amputation. The wound-healing process is impaired in diabetic patients, making conventional treatments ineffective. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have gained attention for their potential in improving wound healing. MSC therapy improves healing in DFU through immunomodulation, differentiation, and angiogenesis.

Summary: A skin wound is a rupture caused by external damage or underlying pathological conditions, and wound healing processes can be burdensome. Bacterial infection, inflammation, impaired angiogenesis, and scar formation hinder the recovery of skin wounds. Scientists are developing multifunctional nanomedicines to address these challenges. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been explored for wound repair due to their self-renewal and multipotency, but immune concerns and legal restrictions need to be resolved. MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) are promising therapeutics for wound repair, possessing advantages such as abundant sources and convenient administration routes. However, current reviews lack focus on the specific roles of EVs in different stages of wound healing, making it necessary to highlight the significance of MSC-derived EVs in promoting wound healing. This review discusses the advances of MSC-derived EVs in wound repair, particularly their roles in eliminating infections, reducing inflammation, promoting angiogenesis, and minimizing scar formation. The limitations and future prospects of MSC-derived EVs in wound repair are also objectively analyzed.

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: The aim of this study is to investigate the beneficial treatment effect of a novel chitosan bio-polymeric material enriched with mesenchymal stem cell products derived from the canine adipose tissue (AT-MSC) on artificial skin defects. Histological analysis and scoring system were used to evaluate the regeneration process, showing accelerated and improved healing in the treatment group compared to the negative control. Additionally, the chitosan-based biomaterial also promoted hair follicle and epidermis layer formation.

Summary: We developed a bioprocessing platform for large-scale production of human Wharton's jelly MSC-derived EVs. The effects of clinical-scale MSC-EV products on wound healing were tested in two different wound models. In vivo efficacy tests showed that treatment with MSC-EVs improved wound recovery, regardless of the type of wound model or treatment mode. In vitro mechanistic studies demonstrated that EV therapy contributed to all stages of wound healing, enhancing re-epithelialization, extracellular matrix remodeling, and angiogenesis.

Summary: The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of brodalumab on self-assessed anxiety and depressive symptoms in Japanese patients with psoriasis. The results showed that brodalumab treatment significantly reduced anxiety symptoms, but had limited effect on depressive symptoms. Therefore, patients with psoriasis and depressive symptoms may require long-term treatment.
