Type I collagen peptides and nitric oxide releasing electrospun silk fibroin scaffold: A multifunctional approach for the treatment of ischemic chronic wounds

Biomimetic nanofibrous scaffolds targeting multiple dysfunctional processes provide a multi-pronged strategy to restore functions and regenerate the damaged tissue. This study investigates a strategy of combining a regenerative component, Type I collagen Peptide (CP), along with a nitric oxide donor, S-Nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), in the form of nanofibrous scaffold to address the non-healing diabetic ulcer. Silk Fibroin-Polyvinyl alcohol (SF-PVA)...
