Non-adenine based purines accelerate wound healing

Abstract: Wound healing is a complex sequence of cellular and molecular processes that involves multiple cell types and biochemical mediators. Several growth factors have been identified that regulate tissue repair, including the neurotrophin nerve growth factor (NGF). As non-adenine based purines (NABPs) are known to promote cell proliferation and the release of growth factors, we investigated whether NABPs had an effect on wound healing.

“…Importantly, our data show significantly elevated levels of UA and a corresponding decrease in purine precursors in WF from clinically worse ulcers (Figures 2 and 3). Interestingly, previous reports indicate that topical application of purine precursors accelerates wound healing in various animal and cell culture models (33–35). In particular, adenosine has been shown to play an important role in stimulating wound healing (36,37).…”

“…Studies of coenzyme Q10, which is a biosynthesized quinone known to possess anti‐inflammatory effects have shown it to aid the skin barrier repair/wound healing process . Furthermore, the purine metabolism pathway showed increased signal intensities of two metabolites and research has shown that non‐adenine based purines promote cell proliferation and release growth factors, thus accelerating wound closure . Other metabolites with raised signal intensities in the highlighted metabolic pathways in Table have shown to improve the skin barrier repair/wound healing process by stimulating keratinocytes, inducing antioxidative responses or stimulating the biosynthesis of collagen .…”

“…Non-adeninebased purines (NABPs) are known to promote cell proliferation and release of growth factors (NGF). Jiang et al studied the effect of NABPs on wound healing (43). Cotreatment of wounds with guanosine plus anti-NGF reversed the guanosine-promoted acceleration of wound healing, indicating that the effect of guanosine is mediated in part by NGF.…”
