Reactive Oxygen Species and NOX Enzymes Are Emerging as Key Players in Cutaneous Wound Repair.
Abstract: Our understanding of the role of oxygen in cell physiology has evolved from its long-recognized importance as an essential factor in oxidative metabolism to its recognition as an important player in cell signaling. With regard to the latter, oxygen is needed...
Porcine Urinary Bladder Matrix for Management of Infected Radiation Mastectomy Wound.
Abstract: We present a case report on the successful healing of a Pseudomonas infection wound in a 52-year-old female with morbid obesity, noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus and a history of tobacco use, who presented with Stage IIIA (T3, N2, Mo) infiltrating...

Efficacy of Metabolically Supported Chemotherapy Combined with Ketogenic Diet, Hyperthermia, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Stage IV Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.
Abstract: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is more aggressive and metastatic than other breast cancer types. Cytotoxic chemotherapy is presently the predominant systemic therapy for TNBC patients. This case report highlights the influence of metabolically...

Refractory Ulcerated Necrobiosis Lipoidica: Closure of a Difficult Wound with Topical Tacrolimus.
Abstract: To report a case of refractory ulcerated necrobiosis lipoidica (NL) with significant response to treatment with topical tacrolimus. A 55-year-old woman without diabetes and with a previous history of NL presented to the Helen L. and Martin S. Kimmel...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy: An alternative treatment for radiation-induced cutaneous ulcers.
Abstract: Radiotherapy is a widely recognised treatment for non-melanoma skin cancer. We report three cases of radiation-induced skin ulcers in which hyperbaric oxygen therapy was administered in 90-min sessions, 5 days a week at 2.4 absolute atmospheres in a...
miR-491-5p inhibits osteosarcoma cell proliferation by targeting PKM2.
Abstract: Increasing evidence has indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) are associated with tumorigenesis and the development of numerous cancer types. Previous studies have suggested miRNA-491-5p is downregulated in osteosarcoma (OS) and functions as a tumor...
