Chronic wounds, a major clinical challenge, still need to develop new methods based on efficient technologies to improve treatment results. Stem cells, particularly mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), as an advanced approach in skin regenerative medicine, brought new hopes. The multifaceted effects of MSCs, including paracrine signaling, trophic factor secretion, and modulation of the wound microenvironment, orchestrate a cascade of regenerative, plays a critical role in tissue repair. Preclinical investigations have revealed the regenerative capacity of MSCs in accelerating wound closure, promoting angiogenesis, and fostering a pro-healing environment in chronic wound models. Clinical trials have also confirmed these findings and show the efficacy of MSC treatment in accelerating wound healing and improving the quality of healed tissue in patients with chronic wounds. Despite the therapeutic progress, key issues, such as optimal cell sourcing, cell dosage, delivery modalities, and long-term safety profiles, there are a number of unresolved issues which need to be dealt with. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current state of stem cell research in wound healing, and offers a new new hope for effective and innovative treatments in regenerative medicine.

Pulmonary fibrosis encompasses different chronic interstitial lung diseases, and the predominant form, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, remains to have a poor prognosis despite 2 approved therapies. Although the exact pathobiological mechanisms are still incompletely understood, epithelial injury and aberrant wound healing responses contribute to the gradual change in lung architecture and functional impairment. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)-induced lysophosphatidic receptor 1 (LPA1) signaling was proposed to be a driver of lung fibrosis, and LPA1 antagonists have shown promising antifibrotic profiles in early clinical development.
