Objective To investigate the effect of tranilast on wound healing and the mechanism of inhibiting scar hyperplasia in mice, and to study the relationship between the inhibiting ability of tranilast on scar hyperplasia and administration time. Methods Sixty-six Kunming mice were selected to build deep II degree burn model, and were randomly divided into the control group (18 mice), the early intervention group (18 mice), the medium intervention group (18 mice), and the late intervention group (12 mice). The mice in the early intervention group, the medium-term intervention group, and the late intervention group were given tranilast 200 mg/(kg·d) by gastrogavage at immediate, 7 days, and 14 days after burn respectively, and the mice in the control group were managed with same amount of normal saline every day. The wound healing was observed regularly. At 14, 28, and 42 days in the early and medium intervention groups and at 28 and 42 days in the late intervention group, fresh tissues were taken from 6 mice to observe the shape of mast cells by toluidine blue staining, collagen content by Masson staining; the collagen type I and collagen type III content were measured to calculate the I/III collagen content ratio by immunohistochemistry method, the contents of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and histamine were detected by ELISA; and the ultrastructure of fibroblasts was observed under transmission electron microscope. Results There was no significant difference in wound healing time between groups (F=1.105,P=0.371). The mast cells number, collagen content, TGF-β1 content, histamine content, and the I/III collagen content ratio in the early intervention group were significantly less than those in the other groups (P<0.05). Significant difference was found in mast cells number, collagen content, and histamine content between control group and medium or late intervention group at the other time points (P<0.05) except between control group and late intervention group at 42 days (P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the activity of fibroblasts in the early intervention group was obviously inhibited, and the arrangement of the fibers was more regular; the fibroblast activity in the medium and late intervention groups was also inhibited obviously. Conclusion Tranilast has no obvious effect on the wound healing time in mice. Tranilast intervention shows the inhibitory effect on the scar hyperplasia which can significantly reduce the number of mast cells, the content of histamine and TGF-β1, inhibit the ability of fibroblasts synthetic collagen and adjust the proportion of collagen synthesis. The immediate tranilast intervention may have the best inhibitory effect on scar hyperplasia.

We in the present study observed the effect of N-fructose modified chitosan quaternary ammonium derivativeson on rat skin wound healing through animal experiments. Forty rats were randomly divided into eight groups (5 in each group). Four groups among the all 8 groups were the experimental groups, while the other 4 groups were the control groups. Next to the skin along the back of the spine, 1.50 cm×2.00 cm×0.16 cm full-thickness skin was cut to make an excision wound model for every rat. Those in the experimental groups were treated with the N-fructose-modified chitosan quaternary ammonium derivatives ointment dressing the wound, while those in the control groups with sterile medical vaseline processing. We dressed the wounds twice a day to observe the wound healing of all rats in different groups. We then observed the wound healing and wound pathology after 3, 7, 10, 15 days respectively in different groups. Results showed significant differences of the time of wound healing, area of wound healing and volume of wound healing between the experimental groups and control groups (P<0.05). It can be well concluded that N-fructose-modified chitosan quaternary ammonium derivatives does not harm the skin, but could promote skin healing, so that they could be suitable skin repair materials and ideal raw materials for medical dressing.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of adipose-derived stem cell released exosomes (ADSC-Exos) on wound healing in diabetic mice.MethodsThe ADSCs were isolated from the adipose tissue donated by the patients and cultured by enzymatic digestion. The supernatant of the 3rd generation ADSCs was used to extract Exos (ADSC-Exos). The morphology of ADSC-Exos was observed by transmission electron microscopy. The membrane-labeled proteins (Alix and CD63) were detected by Western blot, and the particle size distribution was detected by nanoparticle tracking analyzer. The fibroblasts were isolated from the skin tissue donated by the patients and cultured by enzymatic digestion. The 5th generation fibroblasts were cultured with PKH26-labeled ADSC-Exos, and observed by confocal fluorescence microscopy. The effects of ADSC-Exos on proliferation and migration of fibroblasts were observed with cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) and scratch method. Twenty-four 8-week-old Balb/c male mice were used to prepare a diabetic model. A full-thickness skin defect of 8 mm in diameter was prepared on the back. And 0.2 mL of ADSC-Exos and PBS were injected into the dermis of the experimental group (n=12) and the control group (n=12), respectively. On the 1st, 4th, 7th, 11th, 16th, and 21st days, the wound healing was observed and the wound healing rate was calculated. On the 7th, 14th, and 21st days, the histology (HE and Masson) and CD31 immunohistochemical staining were performed to observe the wound structure, collagen fibers, and neovascularization.ResultsADSC-Exos were the membranous vesicles with clear edges and uniform size; the particle size was 40-200 nm with an average of 102.1 nm; the membrane-labeled proteins (Alix and CD63) were positive. The composite culture observation showed that ADSC-Exos could enter the fibroblasts and promote the proliferation and migration of fibroblasts. Animal experiments showed that the wound healing of the experimental group was significantly faster than that of the control group, and the wound healing rate was significantly different at each time point (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the wound healing of the experimental group was better. There were more microvessels in the early healing stage, and more deposited collagen fibers in the late healing stage. There were significant differences in the length of wound on the 7th, 14th, and 21st days, the number of microvessels on the 7th and 14th days, and the rate of deposited collagen fibers on the 14th and 21st days between the two groups (P<0.05).ConclusionADSC-Exos can promote the wound healing in diabetic mice by promoting angiogenesis and proliferation and migration of fibroblasts and collagen synthesis.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) on pressure ulcers in mouse.MethodsThe subcutaneous adipose tissue from voluntary donation was harvested. Then the hADSCs were isolated and cultured by mechanical isolation combined with typeⅠcollagenase digestion. The 3rd generation cells were identified by osteogenic, adipogenic, chondrogenic differentiations and flow cytometry. The platelet rich plasma (PRP) from peripheral blood donated by healthy volunteers was prepared by centrifugation. The pressure ulcer model was established in 45 C57BL/6 mice by two magnets pressurized the back skin, and randomly divided into 3 groups (n=15). The wounds were injected with 100 μL of hADSCs (1×106 cells) transfected with a green fluorescent protein (GFP)-carrying virus, 100 μL human PRP, and 100 μL PBS in hADSCs group, PRP group, and control group, respectively. The wound healing was observed after injection. The wound healing rate was calculated on the 5th, 9th, and 13th days. On the 5th, 11th, and 21st day, the specimens were stained with HE staing, Masson staining, and CD31 and S100 immunohistochemical staining to observe the vascular and nerve regeneration of the wound. In hADSCs group, fluorescence tracer method was used to observe the colonization and survival of the cells on the 11th day.ResultsThe cultured cells were identified as hADSCs by induced differentiation and flow cytometry. The platelet counting was significantly higher in PRP group than in normal peripheral blood group (t=5.781, P=0.029). General observation showed that the wound healing in hADSCs group was superior to those in PRP group and control group after injection. On the 5th, 9th, and 13th days, the wound healing rate in hADSCs group was significantly higher than those in PRP group and control group (P<0.05). Histological observation showed that compared with PRP group and control group, inflammatory cell infiltration and inflammatory reaction were significantly reduced in hADSCs group, collagen deposition was significantly increased, and skin appendage regeneration was seen on the 21st day; at each time point, the expression of collagen was significantly higher in hADSCs group than in PRP group and control group (P<0.05). Immunohistochemical staining showed that the number of neovascularization and the percentage of S100-positive cells in hADSCs group were significantly better than those in PRP group and control group on the 5th, 9th, and 13th days (P<0.05). Fluorescent tracer method showed that the hADSCs could colonize the wound and survive during 11 days after injection.ConclusionLocal transplantation of hADSCs can accelerate healing of pressure ulcer wounds in mice and improve healing quality by promoting revascularization and nerve regeneration.
