Summary |
Our results have demonstrated that our tissue gel can effectively promote angiogenesiswound healing in diabetic wounds. Our product prototype will be a powerful therapeutic product to treat diabetic foot ulcersgo further to rescue diabetic patients from amputation.
|
Scientific Breakthrough |
Ulcers are important complications of diabetes, often resulting from lack of appropriate medical approacheslead to gangrenous amputation.
We developed a tissue gel with optimal compositions required for tissue regeneration. We found it can effectively stimulate local angiogenesisprovide rapid cell growth without any cytotoxicity. |
Industrial Applicability |
The patents applied for this project are important techniques for promoting angiogenesiscan be used as future biomedical products such as wound dressings, artificial skintissue regeneration. |
