Curr Protein Pept Sci. 2023 Oct 31. doi: 10.2174/0113892037276171231016103320. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDiabetic wound healing is expected to affect 25% of all diabetics, resulting in less severe external factors, economic costs, and less trauma. Topical formulations have been continually improved to achieve a range of amazing properties and have had a significant impact on the management of diabetic wounds. Topical insulin has become one of the most attractive and convenient wound healing techniques due to its excellent biocompatibility, water retention, and therapeutic properties. Multiple versatile topical insulins have been identified and have shown promise over the past few years as they greatly facilitate the management of diabetic wounds as we understand their etiology. The physiological wound healing process repairs damaged tissue and restores skin integrity. For about a century, insulin, a powerful healing agent, and it has been utilized in several clinical and experimental researches research studies to accelerate the healing of various injuries.PMID:37909438 | DOI:10.2174/0113892037276171231016103320
