Insulin-like growth factor-I gene transfer speeds wound healing
Published in Gene Therapy Weekly, July 28th, 2005
According to a study from the United States, "growth factors have been shown to modulate the complex cascade of wound healing, however, interaction between different growth factors during dermal and epidermal regeneration is still not entirely defined. We have recently shown that exogenous liposomal gene transfer of cDNA results in physiologic expression and response in an acute wound."
"In the present study we determined the interaction between insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), a mesenchymal growth factor, administered as liposomal cDNA, with other dermal and epidermal growth...
