Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a continuation of our previous successful Special Issue “Novel Natural Compound for Wound and Tissue Repair and Regeneration: 3rd Edition”（https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms/special_issues/1B6SQG2597）.
Wound healing is of great importance for skin medicine, with particular interest focused on natural compounds.
Numerous studies have recognized the potential use of natural products as wound-healing agents in terms of their antibacterial, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and pro-collagen synthesis properties.
The therapeutic virtues of natural compounds have been rediscovered by the medical profession and are gaining acceptance with regard to treating wounds, ulcers, and other surface infections.
Despite the extensive literature available on the clinical uses of natural compounds, the subjacent mechanisms remain largely unknown. With the growing interest in the utilization of natural products and the belief that they are safer than standard therapies, it is crucial that we enhance our knowledge of their efficacy and side effects.
Thus, original articles and reviews that investigate the positive effects of natural compounds on wound healing and the cellular and molecular mechanisms that are involved are welcome in this Special Issue.
Dr. Elia Ranzato
Guest Editor
