Inflammatory signals linked to slow wound healing in RDEB

Inflammatory signals linked to slow wound healing in RDEB

A buildup of pro-inflammatory signaling molecules in skin wounds may explain the slow healing process experienced by people with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), a study suggested. The researchers said the findings support the development of therapies targeting wound-associated pro-inflammatory signals to prevent the progression of the wounds to a chronic state and promote healing. The study, “Cross-sectional analysis of wound-…
