NorLeu3A(1-7) Accelerates Clear Corneal Full Thickness Wound Healing.
PURPOSE We evaluated the effect of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) peptide NorLeu3-Angiotensin (1-7) (NLE) formulated in a viscoelastic gel (USB004) on the healing of full-thickness corneal injuries. METHODS Dutch pigmented rabbits received conjunctival administration of 0.3% USB004, 0.03% USB004, or vehicle-control to healthy and full-thickness injured eyes administered once daily for 28 ...
متن کاملTopical Application of Honey for Treatment of Skin Wound in Mice
Background:Honey has been shown to accelerate wound healing, which is especially important in the management of patients with full-thickness wounds of skin in dermatologic surgeries. Objective: To evaluate the effects of honey in accelerating healing of full-thickness skin wounds in mice. Methods: Two groups of male NMRI mice (n=12) were subjected to full-thickness skin wounds under general ane...
متن کاملLocal Administration of L-Arginine Accelerates Wound Closure
Objective(s) The process of wound healing involves tightly integrated events including inflammation, granulation tissue formation and remodeling. Systemic administration of L-arginine promotes wound healing but its global side effects are undesirable. To confine the action of L-arginine at the site of injury, we tested the effects of local administration of L-arginine on the healing of excisio...
متن کاملMultiphoton fluorescence and second-harmonic-generation microscopy for imaging structural alterations in corneal scar tissue in penetrating full-thickness wound.
The transparency of the cornea relies on the special spatial arrangement of stromal collagen. Any pathological abnormality that leads to the wound healing responses and consequential disruption of collagen alignment may hinder corneal transparency. Understanding wound healing may be crucial for the successful applications of clinical procedures such as refractive surgery. Therefore, the develop...
متن کاملFull-thickness wound healing using 3D bioprinted gelatin-alginate scaffolds in mice: A histopathological study
This study aimed to determine the effect of the 3D bioprinted gelatin-alginate scaffold on the full-thickness skin wound healing on mouse back and to observe the histopathological changes during the wound healing process. Using a murine wound model, full skin thickness excisions were created on the dorsum of 40 mice. Then, each mouse was randomly assigned to either the control group or treatmen...
