The molecular mechanisms of diabetes mediated impaired wound healing and the development of therapeutic strategies.
… in vitro was studied, and an anti-oxidant (silymarin, formulated as freeze-dried wafer discs) was tested for its beneficial effect. A radial migration and a wound healing assay were developed, validated and used to assess the effect of hypoxia and/or high glucose concentration on the …
