Abstract
Burns, mechanical injuries, skin defects, poor wound healing and scars caused by chronic diseases are serious clinical issues that affect millions of people around the world. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is one of the main components of extracellular matrix, which is widely distributed in human body. Because of its unique physical and chemical properties and diversity of physiological functions, hyaluronic acid is widely used in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. This paper reviews the application of HA and HA based scaffolds in the regeneration and repair of skin tissue, as well as the application of HA in the fields of skin filler, wound healing, beauty, etc.
Keywords: Hyaluronic acid, skin tissue engineering, scaffold, hydrogels, dermal fillers, wound healing.

Advances of natural products, bio-actives and novel drug delivery system against emerging viral infections
Due to the increasing prevalence of viral infections and the ability of these human pathogens to develop resistance to current treatment strategies, there is a great need to find and develop new compounds to combat them. These molecules must have low toxicity, specific activity and high bioavailability. The most suitable ...read more
Electrospun Fibers as Drug Delivery Systems
In recent years, electrospun fibers have attracted considerable attention as potential platforms for drug delivery due to their distinctive properties and adaptability. These fibers feature a notable surface area-to-volume ratio and can be intentionally designed with high porosity, facilitating an increased capacity for drug loading and rendering them suitable for ...read more
Emerging Nanotherapeutics for Mitigation of Neurodegenerative Disorders
Conditions affecting the central nervous system (CNS) present a significant hurdle due to limited access of both treatments and diagnostic tools for the brain. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) acts as a barrier, restricting the passage of molecules from the bloodstream into the brain. The most formidable challenge facing scientists is ...read more
Nanotechnology Based Chemotherapy for the treatment of Head & Neck Cancer
The escalating recurrence rates observed in Head and Neck cancer, particularly within the chemo-therapeutically treated cohort (50-60%), can be attributed to the non-selective nature of current anticancer drug delivery modalities. In this context, nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems emerge as a promising avenue for achieving precise localization of therapeutic agents to ...read more
