Chronic wounds (CWs), like diabetic ulcers or pressure sores, are a major health care challenge, especially in the elderly.

From silver nanofibers to smart, sensory-packed dressings, the next generation of wound-healing technology is blurring the ...

Chronic wounds that refuse to close are one of modern medicine’s most stubborn and expensive problems, leaving patients at risk of infection, amputation, and long hospital stays. Researchers are now ...

MC1R - the gene behind red hair - also shapes how quickly wounds heal, revealing why some people recover more slowly than others.

Wound healing is a response to tissue damage that relies on a complex series of signaling events. Cells such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), keratinocytes, and fibroblasts orchestrate the molecular ...

The epithelial cancer biomarker SerpinB3 also plays a role in wound healing, and could inspire new therapeutics.

FDA 510(k) clearance for its Hemastyl gel device marks the first technology that has treated the tissue surrounding chronic wounds and prevented numerous amputations. BREA, Calif., Nov. 13, 2025 ...

A Netherlands-based research team has successfully engineered a full-thickness gum tissue substitute from patient-donated biopsied tissue for use in reconstructing the oral cavity following surgery or ...

Wound healing and tumorigenesis are two processes that rely on similar molecular mechanisms. Repair of tissue injury is a self-limiting process; whereas, tumour formation is characterized by the ...

The discovery that wounds in the fetus can heal without scarring has prompted scientists to work on designing new biomaterials. A multi-institutional research group of engineers, chemists and ...

Researchers have uncovered that SerpinB3, typically linked to severe cancers, is also a key player in natural wound healing.
