Scientists have developed a new hydrogel able to quickly heal animal wounds while minimising scarring, with the immune system’s help. It could potentially work as an upgrade on our body’s injury-healing abilities.
The microporous annealed particle (MAP) gel had previously shown promise as a structure designed to support tissue growth and speed up wound healing. Here, the MAP gel was modified to trigger a particular immune response too.
So far, the research has only looked at wound healing in mice,…
