Advanced nanofibrous membranes: tackling diabetic wounds with precision
In a pioneering study, researchers have developed a poly (L-lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibrous membrane enhanced with curcumin and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), aimed at improving the healing of diabetic wounds.
Engineered nanovesicles from activated neutrophils show promise in treating infected wounds
A recent study has developed nanovesicles (NVs) from activated neutrophils, showcasing their ability to perform molecular debridement and accelerate healing in infectious wounds. This novel method significantly enhances treatment effectiveness, particularly for stubborn diabetic wounds, by targeting and neutralizing deep tissue pathogens.
Breakthrough Discovery: Stem Cell “Messages” Fast-Track Healing of Diabetic Wounds
A study has unveiled that exosomes, extracted from adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSC-Exos), markedly speed up the healing process of skin wounds in diabetic mice. This discovery tackles the pressing global health issue of diabetic wounds, notorious for precipitating grave complications and impairments.
Lab-spun sponges form perfect scaffolds for growing skin cells to heal wounds
A new technique for electrospinning sponges has allowed scientists from the University of Surrey to directly produce 3D scaffolds – on which skin grafts could be grown from the patient’s own skin.
Ultrathin nanotech promises to help tackle antibiotic resistance
Researchers have invented a nano-thin superbug-slaying material that could one day be integrated into wound dressings and implants to prevent or heal bacterial infections.
Skin deep: breakthrough drug gives hope to ‘butterfly’ children
It’s a beautiful moniker, but for the world’s butterfly children’ it belies a devastating reality filled with enormous pain and suffering caused by a rare skin condition – Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB).
‘Lights out’ for antibiotic-resistant superbugs
It’s ‘lights out’ for antibiotic-resistant superbugs as next-generation light-activated nanotech proves it can eradicate some of the most notorious and potentially deadly bacteria in the world.
Blueberry Extract May Aid Wound Healing
Treating wounds with an extract taken from wild blueberries may improve healing, according to a new study. The research will be presented this week in Philadelphia at the American Physiological Society’s (APS) annual meeting at Experimental Biology 2022.
New Insights into Wound Healing Process
Biomedical engineers developed a technique to observe wound healing in real time, discovering a central role for cells known as fibroblasts. The work, reported in APL Bioengineering, is the first demonstration of a wound closure model within human vascularized tissue in a petri dish.
U.S. Military Improved Mortality Since World War II, But Some Alarming Exceptions Remain
Although wound survivability has increased over the last 80 years, the U.S. military’s medical corps suffered some periods of backsliding during conflicts, recent analysis shows
