[Q]: Fractional CO2 laser has recently emerged as a promising therapeutic modality to improve the texture and appearance of burn scars. An issue in many burn scars is persistent erythema, which traditionally has been treated with vascular lasers. Interestingly, fractional CO2 lasers have been shown to improve the appearance of burn scars, including erythema, but no mechanism has been proposed for this change. Our objective is to evaluate the histopathologic changes in vasculature in burn scars treated with fractionated CO2 laser, and to attempt to describe the mechanism behind reduced erythema following treatment.', 'Uncontrolled, prospective study of ten patients with mature burn scars, from a clinical and histological perspective. Biopsy specimens were obtained before and 2 months after 3 treatment sessions. Anti-CD31 immunostaining was performed to highlight vascular patterns in biopsy specimens.', 'In histological analysis, an increase in vascular density, particularly of small caliber vessels, was seen following treatment, with an 82.6% average increase in vasculature (P\u2009=\u20090.028). This increase in vascularity correlated with a decrease in clinical erythema and vascularity scores, measured using the Vancouver Scar Scale.

[Q]: Recent studies have indicated a protective role of physiological autophagy in ischemic heart disease. However, the underlying mechanisms of autophagy regulation after ischemia are poorly understood. Exosomes are nano-sized vesicles released from cells that play critical roles in mediating cell-to-cell communication through the transfer of microRNAs. In this study, we observed that miR-30a was highly enriched in exosomes from the serum of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients in vivo and culture medium of cardiomyocytes after hypoxic stimulation in vitro. We also found that hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α regulates miR-30a, which efficiently transferred via exosomes between cardiomyocytes after hypoxia. Inhibition of miR-30a or release of exosomes increased the expression of the core autophagy regulators beclin-1, Atg12, and LC3II/LC3I, which contributed to maintaining the autophagic response in cardiomyocytes after hypoxia. Taken together, the present study showed that exosomes from hypoxic cardiomyocytes regulate autophagy by transferring miR-30a in a paracrine manner, which revealed a new pathway of autophagy regulation that might comprise a promising strategy to treat ischemic heart disease.

[Q]: Systemic hypertension is one of the main risk factors for atherothrombosis. Tissue factor (TF) is found in the adventitia of blood vessels and in the lipid core of atherosclerotic plaques, and is specifically expressed on monocyte or macrophage cell membrane surfaces. TF plays a pivotal role in blood clotting physiology and is involved in pro-inflammatory action and atherosclerotic plaque destabilization.', 'In this study we investigated whether there is any relationship between TF messenger RNA expression and activity in blood monocytes isolated from hypertensive patients with clinical signs of atherosclerosis, uncomplicated hypertensive individuals and normotensive control subjects.', 'Eighty subjects (41 men and 39 women, mean age 41 +/- 12 years) with untreated essential hypertension and 41 control subjects matched for sex and age were enrolled in the study. Patients were classified according to whether they had a normal (</= 1 mm, 41 patients) or abnormal (> 1 mm, 39 patients) intima-media thickness (IMT).', 'TF mRNA expression and activity in hypertensive individuals with no carotid atherosclerosis were no different from control subjects in unstimulated and stimulated monocytes. Abnormal IMT patients showed a higher TF mRNA expression compared with normal IMT hypertensive subjects (P < 0.001).
