Topical application of Nanoceria accelerates the healing of skin wounds in mice. Two full-thickness wounds were induced and then 10 µl of either vehicle (water) or 10 µM Nanoceria was applied to the wounds once daily for 13 days. A. Images of a representative mouse from each group taken on post-injury days 1, 3, 5, 8 and 13 are shown. B. Wound sizes at the indicated time points in control and Nanoceria-treated mice. **p<0.01, *p<0.05 (n = 6 mice per group). Scale bar = 4 mm.
