RESUMEN
Around 7% of the male population in the world are entangle with considerable situation which is known as male infertility. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) is the application of low-level laser radiation, that recently used to increase or promote the various cell functions including, proliferation, differentiation, ATP production, gene expressions, regulation of reactive oxygen spices (ROS), and also boost the tissue healing and reduction of inflammation. This systematic review's main idea is a comprehensive appraisal of the literatures on subjects of PBMT consequences in four light ranges wavelength (blue, green, red, near-infrared (NIR)) on sperm cell characteristics, in vitro and in vivo. In this study, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases were used for abstracts and full-text scientific papers published from 2003-2023 that reported the application of PBM on sperm cells. Criteria's for inclusion and exclusion to review were applied. Finally, the studies that matched with our goals were included, classified, and reported in detail. Also, searched studies were subdivided into the effects of four ranges of light irradiation, including the blue light range (400-500 nm), green light range (500-600 nm), red light range (600-780 nm), and NIR light range (780-3000 nm) of laser irradiation on human or animal sperm cells, in situations of in vitro or in vivo. Searches with our keywords results in 137 papers. After primary analysis, some articles were excluded because they were review articles or incomplete and unrelated studies. Finally, we use the 63 articles for this systematic review. Our category tables were based on the light range of irradiation, source of sperm cells (human or animal cells) and being in vitro or in vivo. Six% of publications reported the effects of blue, 10% green, 53% red and 31% NIR, light on sperm cell. In general, most of these studies showed that PBMT exerted a positive effect on the sperm cell motility. The various effects of PBMT in different wavelength ranges, as mentioned in this review, provide more insights for its potential applications in improving sperm characteristics. PBMT as a treatment method has significant effectiveness for treatment of different medical problems. Due to the lack of reporting data in this field, there is a need for future studies to assessment the biochemical and molecular effects of PBMT on sperm cells for the possible application of this treatment to the human sperm cells before the ART process.
RESUMEN
Breast and ovarian cancers are significant global health concerns, and understanding their genetic underpinnings is essential for effective prevention and cure. This narrative review provides a comprehensive analysis of studies conducted between 1994 and June 2024, focusing on the link between specific mutations in the breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) and breast cancer susceptibility gene 2 (BRCA2) and the associated risks of both breast and ovarian cancers. It encompasses the findings of various works, including observational studies and molecular profiling analyses. Conducted on large international cohorts, these studies present compelling evidence of the relationship between different BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations and the varying risks of breast and ovarian cancer. Furthermore, this review highlights the significance of nonsense-mediated decay mutations and their impact on cancer risk, particularly concerning the age of breast cancer onset. The implications of these findings are far-reaching, offering valuable information for risk assessment and decision-making in managing individuals who carry BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. The molecular subtyping profile BluePrint is discussed as a potential tool for enhancing clinical care by aiding the selection of appropriate treatment options, such as endocrine therapy or chemotherapy, based on the tumor's molecular characteristics. In conclusion, we establish a robust link between specific BRCA1 and BRCA2 gene mutations and increased susceptibility to breast and ovarian cancers. These mutations impact cancer onset age and severity, underscoring the need for targeted testing and screening. The current study enhances cancer detection, prevention, and cure strategies.
RESUMEN
Introduction: Diabetic patients frequently experience a serious complication known as impaired wound healing, which increases the likelihood of foot infection and limb amputation. Investigators have been looking for novel methods to treat diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) recently. Case Report: A 75-year-old woman with type one diabetes mellitus (DM) has been accepted. There was a sizable (40 cm2 full-thickness cutaneous wound) in the plantar part of her right foot (Wagner Ulcer Grade Classification System: grade 3) which had not been treated by the usual treatment for DFUs. In this present case, we used amniotic fluid gel (AF gel) and photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) (400 mW/cm2; 810 nm, once a week for 16 weeks) to treat and speed up the healing of a harsh DFU. The size of the ulcer area significantly decreased as combination therapy progressed, and within 16 weeks, the wound was healed and the pain was reduced. Conclusion: This revealed contextual analysis demonstrated the useful effect of the mix of PBMT and AF gel on a serious DFU. To confirm the findings, we recommend conducting additional clinical trials in a clinical setting. In addition, it is recommended that additional research using preclinical models uncover the mechanism of action of the combination therapy.
RESUMEN
Orthopedic surgeons face a significant challenge in treating critical-size femoral defects (CSFD) caused by osteoporosis (OP), trauma, infection, or bone tumor resections. In this study for the first time, the application of photobiomodulation (PBM) and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (BM-MSC-CM) to improve the osteogenic characteristics of mineralized bone scaffold (MBS) in ovariectomy-induced osteoporotic (OVX) rats with a CSFD was tested. Five groups of OVX rats with CSFD were created: (1) Control (C); (2) MBS; (3) MBS + CM; (4) MBS + PBM; (5) MBS + CM + PBM. Computed tomography scans (CT scans), compression indentation tests, and histological and stereological analyses were carried out after euthanasia at 12 weeks following implantation surgery. The CT scan results showed that CSFD in the MBS + CM, MBS + PBM, and MBS + CM + PBM groups was significantly smaller compared to the control group (p = 0.01, p = 0.04, and p = 0.000, respectively). Moreover, the CSFD size was substantially smaller in the MBS + CM + PBM treatment group than in the MBS, MBS + CM, and MBS + PBM treatment groups (p = 0.004, p = 0.04, and p = 0.01, respectively). The MBS + PBM and MBS + CM + PBM treatments had significantly increased maximum force relative to the control group (p = 0.01 and p = 0.03, respectively). Bending stiffness significantly increased in MBS (p = 0.006), MBS + CM, MBS + PBM, and MBS + CM + PBM treatments (all p = 0.004) relative to the control group. All treatment groups had considerably higher new trabecular bone volume (NTBV) than the control group (all, p = 0.004). Combined therapies with MBS + PBM and MBS + CM + PBM substantially increased the NTBV relative to the MBS group (all, p = 0.004). The MBS + CM + PBM treatment had a markedly higher NTBV than the MBS + PBM (p = 0.006) and MBS + CM (p = 0.004) treatments. MBS + CM + PBM, MBS + PBM, and MBS + CM treatments significantly accelerated bone regeneration of CSFD in OVX rats. PBM + CM enhanced the osteogenesis of the MBS compared to other treatment groups.

Introduction: Hydatosis is a zoonotic parasitic disease caused by echinococcosis larval infection. South America, Africa, the Middle East, South Europe, India, and Australia are endemic to this disease. Splenic involvement is a rare and complicated hydatid disease presentation. A splenic hydatid cyst is an infrequent clinical occurrence, even in regions where the disease is endemic. Case presentation: A 16-year-old male, having a background of mild abdominal trauma and non-resolving dull abdominal pain attended a paediatric surgical outpatient office and following a thorough examination, was diagnosed with a giant solitary isolated splenic hydatid cyst. Subsequently, the patient received albendazole and underwent total splenectomy, necessitated by the considerable size of the cyst, classified as a giant. Clinical discussion: Splenic involvement of hydatid disease is a rare presentation (0.5-8%.). With the initial clinical finding often involving the accidental discovery of a palpable mass, the most frequently reported symptoms and signs include the presence of a palpable mass, fever, dull pain, or splenomegaly. Ultrasound and computed tomography are the most helpful tools for evaluating focal splenic diseases. The preferred treatment involves the use of antihelminthic drugs such as albendazole or mebendazole in conjunction with splenectomy. Total splenectomy is the preferred approach and is associated with decreased hospital stay, reduced healthcare costs, and a lower likelihood of recurrence. Conclusion: in endemic areas, in patients with splenic cysts, hydatidosis should be contemplated.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic began in 2019 as a result of the advent of a novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. At present, there are a limited number of approved antiviral agents for the treatment of COVID-19. Remdesivir, Molnupiravir, and Paxlovid have been approved by the FDA to treat COVID-19 infections. Research has shown that the main protease enzyme (Mpro) of SARS-CoV-2 plays a crucial role in the enzymatic processing of viral polyproteins. This makes Mpro an interesting therapeutic target for combating infections caused by emerging coronaviruses. METHODS: The pharmacological effects of pyrroles and their derivatives have a wide range of applications. In our study, we focused on synthesizing nine novel derivatives of 2-arylamino-dihydro-indeno[1,2-b] pyrrol-4(1H)-one, with a particular emphasis on their antiviral properties. Using in silico studies involving molecular docking and DFT analyses in the gas phase using the B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) basis set, we studied these compounds with respect to their interactions with the Mpro of SARS-CoV-2. The results of the docking analysis revealed that the synthesized compounds exhibited favorable inhibitory effects. Notably, compound 5f demonstrated the highest effectiveness against the target protein. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic and drug-like properties of the synthesized derivatives of 2-arylamino-dihydroindeno[1,2-b] pyrrol-4(1H)-one indicated their potential as promising candidates for further development as inhibitors targeting SARS-CoV-2. However, it is imperative to determine the in vitro efficacy of these compounds through comprehensive biochemical and structural analyses.

In this preclinical investigation, we examined the effects of combining preconditioned diabetic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) and photobiomodulation (PBM) on a model of infected ischemic delayed healing wound (injury), (IIDHWM) in rats with type I diabetes (TIDM). During the stages of wound healing, we examined multiple elements such as stereology, macrophage polarization, and the mRNA expression levels of stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1α, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), hypoxia-induced factor 1α (HIF-1α), and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to evaluate proliferation and inflammation. The rats were grouped into: (1) control group; (2) diabetic-stem cells were transversed into the injury site; (3) diabetic-stem cells were transversed into the injury site then the injury site exposed to PBM; (4) diabetic stem cells were preconditioned with PBM and implanted into the wound; (5) diabetic stem cells were preconditioned with PBM and transferred into the injury site, then the injury site exposed additional PBM. While on both days 4, and 8, there were advanced histological consequences in groups 2-5 than in group 1, we found better results in groups 3-5 than in group 2 (p < 0.05). M1 macrophages in groups 2-5 were lower than in group 1, while groups 3-5 were reduced than in group 2 (p < 0.01). M2 macrophages in groups 2-5 were greater than in group 1, and groups 3-5 were greater than in group 2. (p ≤ 0.001). Groups 2-5 revealed greater expression levels of bFGF, VEGF, SDF- 1α, and HIF- 1α genes than in group 1 (p < 0.001). Overall group 5 had the best results for histology (p < 0.05), and macrophage polarization (p < 0.001). AD-MSC, PBM, and AD-MSC + PBM treatments all enhanced the proliferative stage of injury repairing in the IIDHWM in TIDM rats. While AD-MSC + PBM was well than the single use of AD-MSC or PBM, the best results were achieved with PBM preconditioned AD-MSC, plus additional PBM of the injury.

A new series of furo[2,3-b]indol-3a-ol derivatives was synthesized to investigate their potential as inhibitors of the Cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2) enzyme. CDK2 is a serine/threonine protein kinase belonging to a family of kinases involved in the control of the cell cycle. Based on results from clinical studies, it has been shown that overexpression of CDK2 may play a role in the development of cancer. In order to discover highly effective derivatives, a process of in silico screening was carried out. The obtained results revealed that compound 3f. had excellent binding energies. In this study, in silico screening was used to investigate protein-ligand interactions and assess the stability of the most favorable conformation. The methods utilized included molecular docking, density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) basis set in the gas phase, molecular dynamic (MD) simulation, as well as the evaluation of drug-likeness scores. The pharmacokinetic and drug-likeness properties of the novel furo[2,3-b]indol-3a-ol derivatives suggest that these compounds have the potential to be considered viable candidates for future development as anticancer drugs.

Background: Osteoporosis is a chronic and systemic skeletal disease that is defined by low bone mineral density (BMD) along with an increase in bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture. This study aimed to overview clinical evidence on the use of herbal medicine for management of osteoporosis. Methods: Electronic databases including Pubmed, Medline, Cochrane library, and Scopus were searched until November 2022 for any clinical studies on the efficacy and/or safety of plant-derived medicines in the management of osteoporosis. Results: The search yielded 57 results: 19 on single herbs, 16 on multi-component herbal preparations, and 22 on plant-derived secondary metabolites. Risk of fracture, bone alkaline phosphatase, BMD, and specific bone biomarkers are investigated outcomes in these studies. Medicinal plants including Acanthopanax senticosus, Actaea racemosa, Allium cepa, Asparagus racemosus, Camellia sinensis, Cissus quadrangularis, Cornus mas, Nigella sativa, Olea europaea, Opuntia ficus-indica, Pinus pinaster, Trifolium pretense and phytochemicals including isoflavones, ginsenoside, Epimedium prenyl flavonoids, tocotrienols are among plant-derived medicines clinically investigated on osteoporosis. It seems that multi-component herbal preparations were more effective than single-component ones; because of the synergistic effects of their constituents. The investigated herbal medicines demonstrated their promising results in osteoporosis via targeting different pathways in bone metabolism, including balancing osteoblasts and osteoclasts, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and estrogen-like functions. Conclusion: It seems that plant-derived medicines have beneficial effects on bone and may manage osteoporosis by affecting different targets and pathways involved in osteoporosis; However, Future studies are needed to confirm the effectiveness and safety of these preparations.
RESUMEN
This investigation tried to evaluate the combined and solo effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) and conditioned medium derived from human adipose tissue-derived stem cells (h-ASC-CM) on the inflammatory and proliferative phases of an ischemic infected delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) in rats with type I diabetes mellitus (TIDM). The present investigation consisted of four groups: group 1 served as the control, group 2 treated with h-ASC-CM, group 3 underwent PBM treatment, and group 4 received a combination of h-ASC-CM and PBM. Clinical and laboratory assessments were conducted on days 4 and 8. All treatment groups exhibited significantly higher wound strength than the group 1 (p = 0.000). Groups 4 and 3 demonstrated significantly greater wound strength than group 2 (p = 0.000). Additionally, all therapeutic groups showed reduced methicillin -resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in comparison with group 1 (p = 0.000). While inflammatory reactions, including neutrophil and macrophage counts, were significantly lower in all therapeutic groups rather than group 1 on days 4 and 8 (p < 0.01), groups 4 and 3 exhibited superior results compared to group 2 (p < 0.01). Furthermore, proliferative activities, including fibroblast and new vessel counts, as well as the measurement of new epidermal and dermal layers, were significantly increased in all treatment groups on 4 and 8 days after the surgery (p < 0.001). At the same times, groups 4 and 3 displayed significantly higher proliferative activities compared to group 2 (p < 0.001). The treatment groups exhibited significantly higher mast cell counts and degranulation phenotypes in comparison with the group 1 on day 4 (p < 0.05). The treatment groups showed significantly lower mast cell counts and degranulation phenotypes than group 1 on day 8 (p < 0.05).The combined and individual application of h-ASC-CM and PBM remarkably could accelerate the proliferation phase of wound healing in the IIDHWM for TIDM in rats, as indicated by improved MRSA control, wound strength, and stereological evaluation. Furthermore, the combination of h-ASC-CM and PBM demonstrated better outcomes compared to the individual application of either h-ASC-CM or PBM alone.

Objectives: Varicocele is a common cause of male infertility associated with an elevated testicular temperature that induces apoptosis, spermatogenesis dysfunction, and affects sperm parameters. In this study, we investigate the probable therapeutic effects of resveratrol (RES), a natural phytoalexin, against varicocele. Materials and methods: In this study, 48 male Wistar rats randomly divided into 8 groups: normal, sham, normal+RES (20 and 50mg/kg), varicocele, varicocele+ethanol and varicocele+RES (20 and 50mg/kg). Incomplete closure of the left renal vein was used for varicocele induction and two months later, RES was administrated orally for 60 days. Then, sperm parameters, DNA fragmentations, chromatin density, and testis histopathology were analyzed. In addition, HSPA2, protamine 1, and 2 expression levels were evaluated using real-time PCR. Results: According to our results, resveratrol treatment improved sperm parameters, testis histopathology, DNA fragmentation, and chromatin maturation which damaged follow varicocele (p≤0.05). Also, it increased HSPA2, protamine 1, and 2 expression levels significantly in both doses (p≤0.05). Conclusion: Resveratrol potentially attenuates varicocele-induced spermatogenic impairments by its antioxidant features and regulates spermatogenic gene expression undergoing DNA fragmentation, so leads histopathological properties of tissues to physiological parameters.

Objetivos: El varicocele es una causa común de infertilidad masculina asociada con una temperatura testicular elevada que induce apoptosis, disfunción de la espermatogénesis y afecta los parámetros espermáticos. En este estudio, investigamos los probables efectos terapéuticos del resveratrol (RES), una fitoalexina natural, contra el varicocele. Materiales y métodos: En este estudio, 48 ratas Wistar macho se dividieron aleatoriamente en 8 grupos: normal, simulado, normal+ RES (20 y 50mg/kg), varicocele, varicocele+ etanol y varicocele+ RES (20 y 50mg/kg). Se utilizó el cierre incompleto de la vena renal izquierda para la inducción del varicocele y dos meses después se administró RES por vía oral durante 60 días. Luego se analizaron los parámetros espermáticos, las fragmentaciones de ADN, la densidad de cromatina y la histopatología testicular. Además, los niveles de expresión de HSPA2, protamina 1 y 2 se evaluaron mediante PCR en tiempo real. Resultados: Según nuestros resultados, el tratamiento con resveratrol mejoró los parámetros espermáticos, la histopatología testicular, la fragmentación del ADN y la maduración de la cromatina que dañó el varicocele posterior (p≤0,05). Además, aumentó significativamente los niveles de expresión de HSPA2, protamina 1 y 2 en ambas dosis (p≤0,05). Conclusión: El resveratrol atenúa potencialmente las deficiencias espermatogénicas inducidas por varicocele por sus características antioxidantes y regula la expresión de genes espermatogénicos que sufren fragmentación del ADN, por lo que conduce las propiedades histopatológicas de los tejidos a parámetros fisiológicos.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to examine the accompanying and solo impacts of conditioned medium of human adipose-derived stem cells (h-ASC-COM) and photobiomodulation (PBM) on the maturation stage of an ischemic infected delayed-healing wound model (IIDHWM) of rats with type 2 diabetes (TIIDM). RESULTS: Outcomes of the wound closure ratio (WCR) results, tensiometrical microbiological, and stereological assessment followed almost identical patterns. While the outcomes of h-ASC-COM + PBM, PBM only, and h-ASC-COM only regimes were significantly better for all evaluated methods than those of group 1(all, p < 0.001), PBM alone and h-ASC-COM + PBM therapy achieved superior results than h-ASC-COM only (ranged from p = 0.05 to p < 0.001). In terms of tensiometrical and stereological examinations, the results of h-ASC-COM + PBM experienced better results than the PBM only (all, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: h-ASC-COM + PBM, PBM, and h-ASC-COM cures expressively accelerated the maturation stage in the wound healing process of IIDHWM with MRSA in TIIDM rats by diminishing the inflammatory reaction, and the microbial flora of MRSA; and increasing wound strength, WCR, number of fibroblasts, and new blood vessels. While the h-ASC-COM + PBM and PBM were more suitable than the effect of h-ASC-COM, the results of h-ASC-COM + PBM were superior to PBM only.
RESUMEN
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) and conditioned medium (CM) derived from human adipose-derived stem cells (h-ASCs), both individually and in combination, on the maturation stage of an ischemic infected delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) in type I diabetic (TIDM) rats. Methods: The study involved the extraction of h-ASCs from donated fat, assessment of their immunophenotypic markers, cell culture, and extraction and concentration of CM from cultured 1 × 10^6 h-ASCs. TIDM was induced in 24 male adult rats, divided into four groups: control, CM group, PBM group (80 Hz, 0.2 J/cm2, 890 nm), and rats receiving both CM and PBM. Clinical and laboratory evaluations were conducted on days 4, 8, and 16, and euthanasia was performed using CO2 on day 16. Tensiometrical and stereological examinations were carried out using two wound samples from each rat. Results: Across all evaluated factors, including wound closure ratio, microbiological, tensiometrical, and stereological parameters, similar patterns were observed. The outcomes of CM + PBM, PBM, and CM treatments were significantly superior in all evaluated parameters compared to the control group (p = 0.000 for all). Both PBM and CM + PBM treatments showed better tensiometrical and stereological results than CM alone (almost all, p = 0.000), and CM + PBM outperformed PBM alone in almost all aspects (p = 0.000). Microbiologically, both CM + PBM and PBM exhibited fewer colony-forming units (CFU) than CM alone (both, p = 0.000). Conclusion: PBM, CM, and CM + PBM interventions substantially enhanced the maturation stage of the wound healing process in IIDHWM of TIDM rats by mitigating the inflammatory response and reducing CFU count. Moreover, these treatments promoted new tissue formation in the wound bed and improved wound strength. Notably, the combined effects of CM + PBM surpassed the individual effects of CM and PBM.

RESUMEN
Introduction: In the current study, the effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) treatments were examined based on biomechanical and histological criteria and mRNA levels of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and NADPH oxidase (NOX) 1 and 4 in a postponed, ischemic, and infected wound repair model (DIIWHM) in rats with type 2 diabetes (DM2) during the inflammation (day 4) and proliferation (day 8) stages. Methods: To study ischemic wound repair in a diabetic rat model (DIIWHM), 24 rats with type-2 diabetes were randomly divided into four groups and infected with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The control groups consisted of CG4 (control group on day 4) and CG8 (control group on day 8), while the PBM groups comprised PBM4 (PBM treatment group on day 4) and PBM8 (PBM treatment group on day 8). These group assignments allowed for comparisons between the control groups and the PBM-treated groups at their respective time points during the study. Results: On days 4 and 8 of wound restoration, the PBM4 and PBM8 groups showed substantially modulated inflammatory responses and improved formation of fibroblast tissue compared with the CG groups (P<0.05). Concurrently, the effects of PBM8 were significantly superior to those of PBM4 (P<0.05). The antioxidant results on days 4 and 8 revealed substantial increases in CAT and SOD in the PBM groups compared with the CGs (P<0.05). Substantial decreases were observed in the antioxidant agents NOX1 and NOX4 of the PBM4 and PBM8 groups compared with both CGgroups (P<0.05). Conclusion: PBM treatments significantly sped up the inflammatory and proliferating processes in a DHIIWM in DM2 animals by modifying the inflammatory reaction and boosting fibroblast proliferation. Overall, the current findings indicated substantially better results in the PBM groups than in the CG groups.

Also, novel indenopyridotriazine [4.3.3]propellanes were synthesized via the reaction of pyrido[1,2,4]triazine and N-methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitroethenamine (NMSM) by using of HOAc in ethanol. The important aspects of this protocol are the abundance of starting materials, mild conditions, structural diversity of products, excellent yields and easy isolation of products with no chromatographic technique.
RESUMEN
Objective: In this study, we aimed to explore the role of MicroRNA-26 in photobiomodulation (PBM)- and adipose-derived stem cell (ADS)-based healing of critical-sized foot fractures in a rat model. Background: PBM and ADS treatments are relatively invasive methods for treating bone defects. Specific and oriented cellular and molecular functions can be induced by applying an appropriate type of PBM and ADS treatment. Methods: A critical size foot defect (CSFD) is induced in femoral bones of 24 rats. Then, a human demineralized bone matrix scaffold (hDBMS) was engrafted into all CSFDs. The rats were randomly allocated into four groups (n = 6): (1) control (hDBMS); (2) hDBMS+human ADSs (hADSs), hADSs engrafted into CSFDs; (3) hDBMS+PBM, CSFD exposed to PBM (810 nm wavelength, 1.2 J/cm2 energy density); and (4) hDBMS+(hADSs+PBM), hADSs implanted into the CSFD and then exposed to PBM. At 42 days after CSFD induction, the rats were killed, and the left CSFD was removed for mechanical compression tests and the right CSFD was removed for molecular and histological studies. Results: The results indicate that miRNA-26a, BMP, SMAD, RUNX, and OSTREX had higher expression in the treated groups than in the control group. Further, the biomechanical and histological properties of CSFDs in treated groups were improved compared with the control group. Correlation tests revealed a positive relationship between microRNA and improved biomechanical and cellular parameters of CSFDs in the rat model. Conclusions: We concluded that the MicroRNA-26 signaling pathway probably plays a significant role in the hADS-, PBM-, and hADS+PBM-based healing of CSFDs in rats. Clinical Trial Registration number: IR.SBMU.MSP.REC.1398.980.

Introduction: Photobiomodulation treatment (PBMT) is a relatively invasive method for treating wounds. An appropriate type of PBMT can produce desired and directed cellular and molecular processes. The aim of this study was to investigate the impacts of PBMT on stereological factors, bacterial count, and the expression of microRNA-21 and FGF2 in an infected, ischemic, and delayed wound healing model in rats with type one diabetes mellitus. Methods: A delayed, ischemic, and infected wound was produced on the back skin of all 24 DM1 rats. Then, they were put into 4 groups at random (n=6 per group): 1=Control group day4 (CGday4); 2=Control group day 8 (CGday8); 3=PBMT group day4 (PGday4), in which the rats were exposed to PBMT and killed on day 4; 4=PBMT group day8 (PGday8), in which the rats received PBMT and they were killed on day 8. The size of the wound, the number of microbial colonies, stereological parameters, and the expression of microRNA-21 and FGF2 were all assessed in this study throughout the inflammation (day 4) and proliferation (day 8) stages of wound healing. Results: On days 4 and 8, we discovered that the PGday4 and PGday8 groups significantly improved stereological parameters in comparison with the same CG groups. In terms of ulcer area size and microbiological counts, the PGday4 and PGday8 groups performed much better than the same CG groups. Simultaneously, the biomechanical findings in the PGday4 and PGday8 groups were much more extensive than those in the same CG groups. On days 4 and 8, the expression of FGF2 and microRNA-21 was more in all PG groups than in the CG groups (P<0.01). Conclusion: PBMT significantly speeds up the repair of ischemic and MARS-infected wounds in DM1 rats by lowering microbial counts and modifying stereological parameters, microRNA-21, and FGF2 expression.
RESUMEN
Introduction: Here, we assess the therapeutic effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) and curcumin (CUR)-loaded superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs), alone or together, on the maturation step of a type 1 diabetes (DM1) rat wound model. Methods: Full-thickness wounds were inflicted in 36 rats with diabetes mellitus (DM) induced by the administration of streptozotocin (STZ). The rats were randomly allocated to four groups. Group one was untreated (control); group two received CUR; group 3 received PBM (890 nm, 80 Hz, 0.2 J/cm2); group 4 received a combination of PBM plus CUR. On days 0, 4, 7, and 15, we measured microbial flora, wound closure fraction, tensile strength, and stereological analysis. Results: All treatment groups showed a substantial escalation in the wound closure rate, a substantial reduction in the count of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a substantial improvement in wound strength, a substantially improvement in stereological parameters compared to the control group, however, the PBM+CUR group was superior to the other treatment groups (all, P≤0.05). Conclusion: All treatment groups showed significantly improved wound healing in the DM1 rat model. However, the PBM+CUR group was superior to the other treatment groups and the control group in terms of wound strength and stereological parameters.
RESUMEN
We synthesized new, structurally distinct series of indeno[1,2-b]pyrrol-4(1H)-ones. Effective derivatives were found by in silico screening, and our studies revealed that compound 5h exhibited good binding energies for inhibition of BRDT. In addition, DFT studies were carried out by means of the B3LYP/6-3lG basis set in the gas phase to investigate the conformation of protein-ligand interactions. The results of the investigation suggest that these compounds could be considered novel BRDT inhibitors. The pharmacokinetic and drug-like properties of the new indenopyrrol-4(1H)-one derivatives exhibited that these compounds could be represented as potential candidates for further development into anticancer-like agents. Additionally, based on the optimised structures, the optimum geometry for each of the selected molecules was developed. Then, the estimated and the experimentally determined IR vibrational frequencies for each compound were compared. The results of this comparison showed that the theoretical and experimental data were in excellent agreement, which could support the reliability of the experimental analytical data and the applicability of the mathematical model.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.
