RESUMO
Currently, clinical strategies for the treatment of wounds are limited, especially in terms of achieving rapid wound healing. In recent years, based on the technique of electrospinning (ES), cell electrospinning (C-ES) has been developed to better repair related tissues or organs (such as skin, fat and muscle) by encapsulating living cells in a microfiber or nanofiber environment and constructing 3D living fiber scaffolds. Therefore, C-ES has promising prospects for promoting wound healing. In this article, C-ES technology and its advantages, the differences between C-ES and traditional ES, the parameters suitable for maintaining cytoactivity, and material selection and design issues are summarized. In addition, we review the application of C-ES in the fields of biomaterials and cells. Finally, the limitations and improved methods of C-ES are discussed. In conclusion, the potential advantages, limitations and prospects of C-ES application in wound healing are presented.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: The prognosis of patients with advanced tongue squamous cell carcinoma (ATSCC) is poor, and their overall survival (OS) is relatively short. Currently, the TNM stage system is often used clinically to assess the prognosis of patients, but the evaluation index of the TNM stage system is relatively single and does not specifically demonstrate relevant prognostic data. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to construct a dynamic online nomogram for predicting the prognosis of patients with ATSCC and to provide some reference for personalized clinical treatment of patients. METHODS: Clinical and prognostic information on patients with pathologically confirmed ATSCC from 2000 to 2018 was extracted from the SEER database and randomly divided into a training cohort and a validation cohort in a 7:3 ratio. Multifactorial and univariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify prognostic risk factors. Dynamic online nomogram were constructed using R software. Area under the curve (AUC), C-index, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) with time-dependent ROC curves were used to assess the clinical utility of the nomogram. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare the prognosis of different patient categories. RESULTS: A total of 3828 patients with ATSCC were screened in the SEER database.Age,race, primary site, AJCC T,N and M stage, lymph nodes surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and marital status were independent influences on OS(P < 0.05). In the training cohort, the C-index of the OS-related line plot was 0.733 and the AUC for predicting 3-year OS was 0.867. In the validation cohort, the C-index was 0.738 and the AUC for 3-year OS was 0.899. Calibration plots and DCA curves showed good predictive performance of the model in both the training and validation cohorts. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that chemotherapy, lymph nodes surgery,married,primary site(tongue base) and radiotherapy had better OS than the non-chemotherapy, non-surgery, single, primary site(tongue anterior), and non-radiotherapy groups, respectively (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The established dynamic online nomogram has good predictive performance, which helps to personalize and combine the actual clinical patients to comprehensively predict the prognosis of ATSCC patients and may have better clinical application than the TNM stage system.

Equipped with anti-oxidative properties, cerium oxide nanoparticles (CNPs) are gradually being adopted over the years in the field of oxidative stress research. However, the effects of CNPs may be diminished when under the influence of prolonged and substantially elevated levels of oxidative stress. Therefore, it is imperative to enhance the efficacy of CNPs to resist oxidative stress. In this study, our approach involves the fabrication of titanium surface CNPs coatings doped with different concentrations of lanthanum ions (La3+) and the investigation of their local anti-oxidative stress potential. The physicochemical characterization showed that the La-CNPs groups had a substantial increase in the generation of oxygen vacancies within the CNPs structure with the increase of La doping concentration. In vitro findings proofed that the cytocompatibility of different La-CNPs coatings showed a trend of increasing first and then decreasing with the increase of La doping concentration under oxidative stress microenvironment. Among these groups, the 30 % La-CNPs group presented the best cell proliferation and osteogenic differentiation which could activate the FoxO1 pathway, then upregulated the expression of SOD1 and CAT, and finally resulted in the inhibition of ROS production. In vivo results further confirmed that the 30 % La-CNPs group showed significant osteogenic effects in two rat models (osteoporosis and diabetes models). In conclusion, we believe that the 30 % La-CNPs coating holds promising potential for its implant applications in patients with oxidative stress-related diseases.
