【 摘 要 】

Normal wound repair is a dynamic and complex process involving multiple coordinated interactions between growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, and various cells. Any failure during the repair process may cause chronic wounds or scar formation, which increase the financial burden of patients due to repetitive treatments and considerable medical expenditures, and affect their quality of life. Nowadays, extensive efforts have been made to develop novel therapeutics for wound repair. Genetic engineering technology, tissue engineering technology, stem cell-based therapy, physical and biochemical technology, and vacuum-assisted closure technique have been proposed to be beneficial for wound repair, and shown considerable potential for improving the rate and quality of wound healing and skin regeneration. However, challenges remain as applying these techniques. As the development of cell biology and molecular biology, the understanding of the mechanism under wound repair has gradually deepened. As the growth of interdisciplinary research on physics, chemistry, biology, tissue engineering, and materials, the concept and technique relating wound repair for clinical application have rapidly developed. This article reviews the latest progress on the mechanism and technique in wound repair.
