Abstract:Impaired wound healing is one of the Diabetes mellitus complications. Low-intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) therapy may accelerate the impaired wound healing. The use of LIPUS therapy in the early inflammatory phase can induce mast cell degranulation, and in the proliferative phase it can increase collagen synthesis by fibroblasts. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of LIPUS therapy on mast cell degranulation and fibroblastexpression in the healing process of punch biopsy wound in rats wi… Show more
