(13) caused by decubital, vascular, and diabetic pathologies (14,15). In particular the induction of the production of growth factors, such as PDGF-AA and IGF-1 (16), was shown to interact with and improve the molecular processes of wound healing. Wound healing impairment and infec- ...

Moreover, nanosized material favors the decrease of cell viability due to the stronger reactivity caused by a higher surface-to-volume ratio and increased cell uptake [37,66]. The results also indicated a significantly higher reduction of cell viability for the MCR5 cell line. According to the...
Limb wounds are common in horses and often develop complications. Intravenous multipotent mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) therapy is promising but has risks associated with intravenous administration and unknown potential to improve cutaneous wound healin
At the level of skin wounds, an electrical potential difference develops between the edges of the wound and the center of the wound, which favors the migration of cells in the process of their healing. Cells migrate in an electric field because they have
[36] also demonstrated that GNPs increase levels of NRF2, which induces the signaling of antioxidant genes, in a study of endothelial cells. This increase was caused by the action of GNPs affecting the thiol bonds of KEAP1, thus changing its conformation and releasing NRF2 for subsequent ...
