The Evaluation of the Effects of Nanoemulsion Formulations Containing Boron and/or Zinc on the Wound Healing in Diabetic Rats

Abstract: Wound healing remains a challenging clinical problem, especially in the presence of diabetes. Diabetic patients have the impaired ability to fight infection and insufficient inflammatory response. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of boronophenylalanine (BFA) and/or Zn-containing nanoemulsion (NE) formulations on wound healing in diabetic rats. MTT and scratch assays were performed to evaluate the proliferative effects of BFA and/or Zn on human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells and the migration of… Show more

“…Wound healing, which starts with in ammation, continues with proliferation and ends with regeneration, is a regular and programmed sequence of events in itself. Factors such as oxygenation, infection, age and sex hormones, stress, diabetes, obesity, drugs, alcoholism, smoking and nutrition can affect one or more phases of this process and cause inaccurate or impaired wound healing [19]. The effects of the wound healing process and the therapeutics used in the wound healing process should be well documented in order to have smooth and / or rapid wound healing and to reduce / eliminate the effects of the factors that adversely affect wound healing.…”

“…The effects of the wound healing process and the therapeutics used in the wound healing process should be well documented in order to have smooth and / or rapid wound healing and to reduce / eliminate the effects of the factors that adversely affect wound healing. Formulas containing boric acid have been previously used in the literature to accelerate the wound healing process and its effectiveness has been demonstrated [11,15,19].…”

“…Also, boric acid limits oxidative damage by augmenting the glutathione storage of the body and inhibiting other ROS [22,25]. While there is known to be scientific research into the biological properties of various trace elements [26], those of Se and B have been investigated by a very limited number of studies. Therefore, the present study aims to compare the protective effects of Se and B upon CP-induced bone marrow and hematological toxicity in rats.…”
