Current treatment of chronic wounds
has been critically limited
by various factors, including bacterial infection, biofilm formation,
impaired angiogenesis, and prolonged inflammation. Addressing these
challenges, we developed a multifunctional wound dressing-based three-pronged
approach for accelerating wound healing. The multifunctional wound
dressing, composed of nanofibers, functional nanoparticles, natural
biopolymers, and selected protein and peptide, can target multiple
endogenous repair mechanisms and represents a promising alternative
to current wound healing products.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
