A recent study from the Department of Pathology, School of Medicine, Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences, Nagasaki University, Nagasaki, Japan shows that “Reduced FOXO1 expression accelerates skin wound healing and attenuates scarring.” This study was published in the 8 July 2014 issue of Am J Pathol by Prof Shimokawa, Mori R and others.
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan PhD, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports that: Shear therapy accelarates wound healing and prevents scarring: Shear therapy enhances skin wound healing and attenuates pathological scarring via down regulation of its target gene
Significance:
This study suggests, for the first time, that Shear therapy (1) accelerates skin wound healing; and (2) prevents pathological scarring. Shear therapy, by increasing the expression of its target gene, it may: (1) increase keratinocyte migration; (2) decrease granulation tissue formation; and (3) attenuate inflammatory response. Thereby, it may (1) accelerate skin wound healing; and (2) prevent pathological scarring.
