Professor Won Jong Kim and his research team developed a nano-sized hydrogel that treats inflammatory disease by scavenging nitric oxide POHANG UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY (POSTECH) (NO) prevents high blood pressure and artery plaque build-up in our body. However, its duplicity is shown when it causes serious inflammatory disease such as systemic lupus erythematosus, Cronh’s disease, and rheumatoid arthritis. The research team of...

Skin cells ‘crawl’ together to heal wounds treated with unique hydrogel layer
Summary: Scientist have demonstrated for the first time that their peptide-hydrogel biomaterial prompts skin cells to ‘crawl’ toward one another, closing chronic, non-healing wounds often associated with diabetes, such as bed sores and foot ulcers. Chronic wounds- new modality of healing with peptides. Time may not heal all wounds, but a proprietary mix of peptides...
