Abstract
Wound healing is a complex, multiphase process crucial for restoring tissue integrity and functionality after injury. Among the emerging therapeutic approaches, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have shown substantial promise because of their dual role in microbial defense and cellular modulation. AMP-IBP5, a novel AMP derived from insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5, exhibits both antimicrobial and wound-healing properties, making it a promising therapeutic candidate. This peptide exhibits robust antimicrobial activity, augments keratinocyte proliferation, increases fibroblast migration, induces angiogenesis, and modulates the immune response. Mechanistically, AMP-IBP5 activates Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) in keratinocytes, stimulating IL-8 production and vascular endothelial growth factor expression to accelerate wound healing. This molecule also interacts with LRP1 in fibroblasts to increase cell migration and promote angiogenesis while mitigating inflammatory responses through targeted cytokine modulation. Preclinical studies have demonstrated its remarkable efficacy in promoting tissue repair in diabetic wounds and inflammatory skin conditions, including atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. This review delves into the broad therapeutic potential of AMP-IBP5 across dermatological applications, focusing on its intricate mechanisms of action, comparative advantages, and its path toward clinical and commercial application.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Functional Biomaterials (JFB, ISSN 2079-4983) is an international and interdisciplinary scientific journal that publishes regular research papers (articles), reviews and short communications about applications of materials for biomedical use. JFB covers subjects from chemistry, pharmacy, biology, physics over to engineering. The journal focuses on the preparation, performance and use of functional biomaterials in biomedical devices and their behaviour in physiological environments. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their results in as much detail as possible. Therefore, there is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Several topical special issues will be published. Scope: adhesion, adsorption, biocompatibility, biohybrid materials, bio-inert materials, biomaterials, biomedical devices, biomimetic materials, bone repair, cardiovascular devices, ceramics, composite materials, dental implants, dental materials, drug delivery systems, functional biopolymers, glasses, hyper branched polymers, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), nanomedicine, nanoparticles, nanotechnology, natural materials, self-assembly smart materials, stimuli responsive materials, surface modification, tissue devices, tissue engineering, tissue-derived materials, urological devices.
