introduction: impaired wound healing in diabetic patients is a major clinical problem, which is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. estrogen has positive effects on neoangiogenesis, reepithelialization and cell proliferation. in this research, effect of estrogen on wound healing in diabetic male rats was investigated. methods: this study was performed on male wistar rats (body ...

Background: Healing involves complex processes that are not yet fully known. The wound healing process consists of three stages. In all these stages, normal wound healing requires platelet activation, release of cytokines and growth hormones, and chemotaxis and cell differentiation. Platelets play a key role in homeostasis and wound healing and growth factor production of more than 30 carried o...

bone has a capability to repair itself when it is fractured. repair involves the generation of intermediatetissues, such as fibrous connective tissue, cartilage and woven bone, before final bone healing can occur. theprocess of cartilage-to-bone transition (cbt) is a key for the achievement of rigid bone healing duringfracture repair. we tested this potential for elastic cartilage using a long ...

objective(s): this study was aimed at investigating the synergy effects of aloe vera gel and silver nanoparticles on the healing rate of the cutting wounds. materials and methods: in order to determine the concentration of silver nanoparticles in aloe vera gel, the mbc methods were applied on the most common bacteria infecting wounds, staphylococcus aureus, escherichia coli, pseudomonas aerugin...
