Potential therapies for diabetic wound repair. Strategies for manipulating the regeneration of diabetic wounds include the use of hydrogels (loaded with small molecules and stem cells, etc.), photothermal therapy, and materials that release oxygen. All of these elements have been demonstrated to have an effect on in vitro and in vivo models of wound healing. These repair mechanisms include vascularization, less ROS production, oxygen release, and antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, combining these strategies will undoubtedly change the result of diabetic wound healing.
