Injectable VEGF-loaded gelatin-hyaluronic acid hydrogel to synergistically promote flap survival via rapid angiogenesis.
Journal of materials chemistry. B · 2026
Random-pattern skin flaps are commonly used in plastic surgery to close skin defects, but necrosis often occurs in the distal portions of flaps due to insufficient blood supply, which severely limits their clinical utility. Thus, we developed a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-loaded injectable hydrogel to promote local angiogenesis to improve skin flap survival. The hydrogel, composed of… Read on PubMed →
pH-responsive smart hydrogel dressing for controlled antimicrobial therapy and accelerated wound healing.
Journal of materials chemistry. B · 2026
Bacterial wound infections pose a major clinical challenge, often causing delayed healing, recurrent infections, and increased antibiotic resistance. Conventional antibiotics are largely ineffective against biofilm-associated bacteria, underscoring the need for advanced antimicrobial approaches. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) exhibit potent, broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, but their clinical… Read on PubMed →
Efficacy of Japanese Maca Powder Against Aging Stress in Human Dermal Fibroblasts.
International journal of molecular sciences · 2026
The aim of this study was to identify and examine materials that have a long history of use in folk medicine and exhibit biological activity but have not been fully utilized. This study evaluated the reactivity of Japanese maca powder in cultured human dermal cells subjected to aging stress (UV irradiation, AGE treatment, or H2O2 treatment). The mRNA levels of three stress parameters (collagen… Read on PubMed →
Noninvasive Diagnosis Revealed a Strong Therapeutic Response and Skin Barrier Changes in Hemoporfin-Mediated Photodynamic Therapy for Port-Wine Stains.
Skin research and technology : official journal of International Society for Bioengineering and the Skin (ISBS) [and] International Society for Digital Imaging of Skin (ISDIS) [and] International Society for Skin Imaging (ISSI) · 2026
BACKGROUND: Noninvasive skin imaging, such as reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) and optical coherence tomography (OCT), has been extensively used to collect objective clinical data and assess the morphological and ultrastructural change of tissue. However, the application of these noninvasive diagnosis techniques for the therapeutic evaluation of hemoporfin-mediated photodynamic therapy… Read on PubMed →
Multitargeted Modulation of Skin Dullness by HNHT Formulation: Synergistic Inhibition of Melanogenesis, Glycation, and Lipofuscin Deposition.
Journal of cosmetic dermatology · 2026
BACKGROUND: Skin dullness, characterized by pigmentation disorders and yellowing, is a major cosmetic concern in Asian populations. Lipofuscin exhibits ultraviolet (UV)/visible light spectral absorption, reduces skin reflectance, and contributes to dullness, whereas existing therapies targeting melanogenesis and glycation lack comprehensive efficacy. This study aimed to evaluate the multimodal… Read on PubMed →
