Recent Approaches for Wound Treatment

Dear Colleagues,

Wounds represent an unsolved serious healthcare problem. The treatments available are not-satisfactory because they do not take into account the patient-to-patient differences and needs changing according to wound type as well as age, sex, etc. An efficacious therapy could be obtained by specific customized treatments developed taking into account the specific aspects of the patient.

The aim of this special issue is to describe the recent approaches for and efficacious treatment of wounds from different aspects. These include the description of new ingredients (e.g. A.P.I., polymers) able to stimulate the wound healing, new delivery systems, new formulations as well as new understanding in the stimulation of physiological biochemical pathways (that change according to many factors such as age, sex, etc.) involved in wound healing.
