Ozonated oil increases the healing of chronic diabetic wounds, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We investigated the effect of topical ozonated oil on wound healing in mice with diabetes with diet-induced obesity and further elucidated the role of EGFR and IGF1R signaling in diabetic wound healing. We found that topical ozonated oil accelerated wound healing; increased phosphorylation of IGF1R, EGFR, and VEGFR; and improved vascularization at the wound leading edge in mice with diabetes with diet-induced obesity.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates haptoglobin expression in condyloma acuminatum (CA) lesions at both mRNA and protein levels, aiming to understand its role in the disease's development.
  • The research involved analyzing skin samples from 30 CA patients and 20 normal controls using various techniques and found that haptoglobin mRNA and protein levels were significantly higher in CA lesions compared to normal tissues.
  • Results suggest that increased haptoglobin in CA lesions might contribute to immune evasion by impairing the functionality of Langerhans cells and keratinocytes, indicating its potential role in the pathogenesis of CA.
