TLDR Nanomaterials can improve wound healing by helping with cell growth, preventing infection, and reducing inflammation.

The review "Nanoparticles-assisted Wound Healing" discusses the significant role of nanomaterials in wound healing. The authors highlight three main complications in wound treatment: inadequate environment for cell migration, proliferation, and angiogenesis; microbial infection; and unstable and prolonged inflammation. Current treatments have not fully addressed these issues. However, nanomaterials have shown potential in overcoming these challenges due to their antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and angiogenic activities. The review focuses on innovative techniques involving nanoparticles, nanocomposites, and scaffolds in wound healing and infection control. Additionally, the effectiveness of nanoparticles as carriers for therapeutic compounds in wound-healing applications has been explored. This provides an updated source for researchers on the use of nanomaterials to enhance wound healing.
