Article Abstract
Local free cell (eosinophils and macrophages) and extracellular (acid mucopolysaccharides) reactions were studied by histochemical techniques in 72 primary lung cancers (Group A), 17 pulmonary metastases and 5 lung tumours of unknown origin (Group B). Strong cellular reactions were more frequent in Group A than in Group B, whereas extracellular reactions were more frequent in Group B than in Group A. In both groups the degrees of eosinophilic infiltration and accumulation of acid mucopolysaccharides tended to be negatively correlated. In contrast, macrophages and eosinophils showed a positive correlation in the primary cancers, but none in the other tumours. The extracellular material had physical and chemical properties (solubility, affinity to stains and degradability by enzymes) of the sulphated acid mucopolysaccharides. From its distribution it appeared to be derived from fibroblasts and/or tumour cells.

Persistent Nodules on Necklines Following Hyaluronic Acid Filler: A Case Report.
J Cosmet Dermatol
September 2025
Department of Dermatology, College of Medicine, Imam Mohammad Bin Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Background: Necklines are a common complaint in patients as they are a sign of aging. Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers are widely used to address volume loss and linear depressions. HA fillers are safe, effective, and versatile, but their use for necklines is not well-documented in the literature.

Background: Guided bone regeneration (GBR) relies on biocompatible membranes to support osteogenesis. 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE)-crosslinked hyaluronic acid (xHyA) has shown promise in enhancing bone regeneration, yet its mechanisms remain unclear.
Objective: This study evaluates the osteogenic effects of xHyA-functionalized native pericardium collagen membrane (NPCM) and ribose-crosslinked collagen membrane (RCCM) using an airlift culture model with SaOS-2 cells.
Enhancing Platelet-Rich Fibrin: Influence of Hyaluronic Acid and Collagen on Growth Factor Release and Biomechanical Properties in Vitro.

Department of Periodontology, Faculty of Dentistry, University of Çukurova;
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) is an autologous matrix rich in platelets, leukocytes, and growth factors that support tissue regeneration. Enhancing its structural and biological properties through biomaterial supplementation may improve clinical outcomes. This study evaluated the effects of adding hyaluronic acid (HA) and collagen to PRF on growth factor release and mechanical strength.

Purpose: This study aimed to develop a composite nanozyme system (Au/PB-Ce6-HA) based on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Prussian blue nanoparticles (PBNPs) to combat tumor hypoxia and insufficient endogenous hydrogen peroxide (HO) deficiency, thus enhancing the efficacy of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) and starvation therapy for liver cancer.
Methods: The Au/PB-Ce6-HA system was constructed by in situ embedding AuNPs on PBNPs, loading the sonosensitizer Chlorin e6 (Ce6), and surface-coating with thiolated hyaluronic acid (HA-SH). The system was evaluated both in vitro and in vivo to assess its ability to catalyze glucose to generate HO, decompose HO to produce oxygen, and generate highly toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) under ultrasound irradiation.
Photocrosslinked Mucoadhesive Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel for Transmucosal Drug Delivery.

Contipro a.s., Czech Republic.
Drug delivery to the central nervous system (CNS) is primarily hindered by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). To address this, mucoadhesive formulations have been designed to prolong residence time at the application site. In this study, we comprehensively characterized the physicochemical and mucoadhesive properties of hyaluronic acid tyramine (HATA) photocrosslinked hydrogels using rheological methods, nanoindentation, contact angle goniometry, and advanced confocal microscopy.
