VEGF-A, PDGF-BB and HB-EGF Engineered for Promiscuous Super Affinity to the Extracellular Matrix Improve Wound Healing in a Model of Type 1 Diabetes
[NPJ Regenerative Medicine] In the type 1 diabetic NOD mouse model, engineered growth factors improved both re-epithelialization and granulation tissue formation.

An Antibody against Siglec-15 Promotes Bone Formation and Fracture Healing by Increasing TRAP+ Mononuclear Cells and PDGF-BB Secretion
[Bone Research] The authors found that the multinucleation of osteoclasts was inhibited in SIGLEC-15 conditional knockout mice and mice undergoing Siglec-15 neutralizing antibody treatment.

Adenosine Deaminase 2 Produced by Infiltrative Monocytes Promotes Liver Fibrosis in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
[Cell Reports] The authors suggested that infiltrative monocytes promoted fibrogenesis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease via ADA2-mediated autocrine/paracrine signaling culminating in enhanced PDGF-B production.

miR548ai Antagonism Attenuates Exosome-Induced Endothelial Cell Dysfunction
[Cell Death Discovery] Investigators suggested that miR548ai, a rarely known microRNA, may have provided a molecular target for protection against smooth muscle cell/exosome-induced endothelial cell dysfunction.

Increased Abundance of Cbl E3 Ligases Alters PDGFR Signaling in Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
[Matrix Biology] Investigators indicated that elevated TGFβ signaling led to an attenuated response to growth factors, which contributed to impaired dermal wound healing in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
