The Effect of Gender-Affirming Medical Care on the Vaginal and Neovaginal Microbiomes of Transgender and Gender-Diverse People
TLDR
A review of what is known of the epithelium and local microbiota of the testosterone-exposed vagina and the neovagina focuses on potential pathogens and determinants of gynecological health and identifies key knowledge gaps for future research.
Nile Tilapia Fish Skin, Scales, and Spine as Naturally Derived Biomaterials for Tissue Regeneration
TLDR
This study aims to review the literature on the use of Nile tilapia-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins as naturally derived scaffold material for tissue regeneration with a view to finding a satisfactory source of collagen for its quality and cost benefit.

Sexual health after vaginoplasty: A systematic review
Vaginoplasty is a gender‐affirming procedure for transgender and gender diverse (TGD) patients who experience gender incongruence. This procedure reduces mental health concerns and enhances patients’…
Decellularized sturgeon cartilage extracellular matrix scaffold inhibits chondrocyte hypertrophy in vitro and in vivo
TLDR
The test of the applicability of using decellularized sturgeon cartilage ECM (dSCECM) scaffold to cease chondrocyte hypertrophy during cartilage damage repair suggests that the d SCECM scaffold can be potentially applied in clinical treating cartilage defects via the CTE approach to avoid the risk of chond rocytehypertrophy.
