Nano drug accelerates diabetic wound healing in mice - EurekAlert


<p>Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have designed a regenerative medicine therapy to speed up diabetic wound repair. Using tiny fat particles loaded with genetic instructions to calm down inflammation, the treatment was shown to target problem-causing cells and reduce swelling and harmful molecules in mouse models of damaged skin. Details on their findings were published in the May 20 online issue of the <em>Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences</em>&nbsp;(<em>PNAS</em>).</p>
