Robust Angiogenesis and Arteriogenesis in the Skin of Diabetic Mice by Transient Delivery of Engineered VEGF and PDGF-BB Proteins in Fibrin Hydrogels
Non-healing ulcers are a serious complication of diabetes mellitus and a major unmet medical need. A major cause for the lack of healing is the impairment of spontaneous vascularization in the skin, despite mostly normal blood flow in deeper large vessels. Therefore, pro-angiogenic treatments are ne...
