Substance P accelerates wound repair by promoting neovascularization and preventing inflammation in an ischemia mouse model

Arterial insufficiency ulcers are frequent complications of peripheral artery disease and infection or long-term neglect of the ulcer can eventually lead to amputation of the affected body part. An ischemic environment, caused by interrupted blood flow, affects the supply of nutrients and elongates the inflammation period, inducing tissue degeneration. Thus, the modulation of neovascularization and inflammation could be an ideal therapeutic...
