Elucidation of molecular pathways responsible for the accelerated wound healing induced by a novel fibrous chitin dressing

Abstract: Fibrous chitin dressing (FCD) prepared from a NaOH-urea aqueous solution of chitin via a physical process was used to study its effect on wound healing using a full-thickness cutaneous wound model in rats and mice.

“…It may also accelerate hemostasis and tissue regeneration (Liu et al, 2018). The advent of nanotechnology has opened new avenues for designing innovative and efficient therapies to overcome the barriers faced by conventional therapies (Huang et al, 2018;Zhong et al, 2019;Alqahtani et al, 2020;Wang et al, 2020;Faraji et al, 2021). Thiolation of the polymers is a novel approach for improving the healing properties of polymers and alleviating associated side effects.…”

“…In addition, sacchachitin nanofibers accelerated blood clotting times by 30 s and significantly promoted wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats [223]. Interestingly, chitin accelerated wound healing via a MyD88-dependent pathway, followed by a TGF-β/Smad pathway [224]. Furthermore, Pseudomonas aeruginosa-infected wounds in db/db diabetic mice were diminished by cleaning with cleansing agent hypochlorous acid and covering with silver nanoparticle/chitin in the form of nanofiber sheet [225].…”

“…It is also known that a satisfactory material that covers the wound to prevent microbiological contamination and promotes a suitable environment for tissue regeneration is required for effective wound healing [10]. Hence, biomaterials such as polysaccharides (glycans) [11][12][13][14] and proteins [15,16] present an interesting alternative for this application due to their intrinsic properties that are considered essential for a dressing such as biocompatibility, non-toxicity, ability to adsorb bioactive molecules, and biodegradability [17].…”
