Diabetic Foot Ulcers and Epidermal Growth Factor: Revisiting the Local Delivery Route for a Successful Outcome

Abstract: Soon after epidermal growth factor (EGF) discovery, some in vivo models appeared demonstrating its property to enhance cutaneous wound healing. EGF was the first growth factor (GF) introduced in the clinical arena as a healing enhancer, exerting its mitogenic effects on epithelial, fibroblastoid, and endothelial cells via a tyrosine kinase membrane receptor. Compelling evidences from the 90s documented that, for EGF, locally prolonged bioavailability and hourly interaction with the receptor were necessary for … Show more

“…Studies dating more than a decade ago have reproducibly shown the intrinsic ability of epidermal growth factor (EGF) at pharmacological concentrations to trigger biological actions required for diabetic wound healing upon its systematic infiltration into the wound edges and bottom . Consequently, broad pharmacovigilance studies confirm the clinical efficacy of the infiltrative procedure in terms of both safety and patients' response with 16% absolute, 71% relative reduction amputation risks, and only 5% reulcerations upon a 12‐month follow‐up period…”

“…Menurut Dinh, Braunagel, & Rosenblum, (2015) faktor pertumbuhan yang berperan dalam proses penyembuhan luka antara lain platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), transforming growth factor (TGF), dan vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Growth factor merupakan salah satu dari tiga pilar utama pengobatan regeneratif yang berperan dalam perbaikan jaringan, regenerasi epitel, dan remodeling sel untuk pemulihan fungsional pasca cedera (Berlanga-acosta et al, 2017). Salah satu faktor pertumbuhan yang mempunyai peranan dalam proses penyembuhan luka adalah EGF.…”

“…El déficit de los factores de crecimiento descripto en la DM lleva a: (i) una alteración en la funcionalidad de los fibroblastos, con limitada formación, maduración y remodelado de la matriz extracelular, (ii) disminución en la población de miofibroblastos y (iii) limitación de la respuesta angiogénica. Todos estos factores convergen en una importante falla en el proceso de reparación (Berlanga-Acosta et al, 2017). Sumado a esto, los desórdenes bioquímicos asociados actúan como fuerzas que desencadenan un fenotipo proinflamatorio, prooxidante y prodegradativo (Berlanga-Acosta et al, 2017).…”

Un control metabólico estricto, cuidado de las heridas y terapia antibiótica son las intervenciones básicas para el tratamiento de las úlceras del pie diabético.…”
