Abstract
The process of wound healing consists of multiple phases, and any disruptions in these phases can lead to the wound becoming chronic and impose heavy financial and psychological costs on the patient and a huge economic burden on the country’s healthcare system. Various treatments such as drugs, matrix and scaffolds, blood products, cell therapy, and a combination of these treatments are used for wound healing. The use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is one of these methods that have produced appropriate responses in the healing of patients’ wounds. MSCs by secreting growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and RNAs elicit changes in cell proliferation, migration, growth, signaling, immunomodulation, and wound re-epithelialization process, and as a result, accelerate wound closure and wound healing. These cells can be isolated from different body sources with different cell characteristics and used directly on the wound site or by injection. In addition, MSCs-derived exosomes have attracted growing attention due to circumventing concerns relating to the direct use of MSCs. To increase the performance of MSCs, they can be used together with other compounds such as platelets, matrices, or scaffolds. This study examined the functions of MSCs in wound healing, as well as the vesicles they secrete, cellular and molecular mechanisms, and combined treatments with MSCs for wound healing.
期刊介绍:
Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics (CBB) aims to publish papers on the nature of the biochemical and biophysical mechanisms underlying the structure, control and function of cellular systems
The reports should be within the framework of modern biochemistry and chemistry, biophysics and cell physiology, physics and engineering, molecular and structural biology. The relationship between molecular structure and function under investigation is emphasized.
Examples of subject areas that CBB publishes are:
· biochemical and biophysical aspects of cell structure and function;
· interactions of cells and their molecular/macromolecular constituents;
· innovative developments in genetic and biomolecular engineering;
· computer-based analysis of tissues, cells, cell networks, organelles, and molecular/macromolecular assemblies;
· photometric, spectroscopic, microscopic, mechanical, and electrical methodologies/techniques in analytical cytology, cytometry and innovative instrument design
For articles that focus on computational aspects, authors should be clear about which docking and molecular dynamics algorithms or software packages are being used as well as details on the system parameterization, simulations conditions etc. In addition, docking calculations (virtual screening, QSAR, etc.) should be validated either by experimental studies or one or more reliable theoretical cross-validation methods.
