Abstract (original English)

This study investigates the therapeutic potential of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) in diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs). The goal is to further research regenerative medicine by improving knowledge of ASC-based therapies in diabetic wound management. A comprehensive literature review included studies from reputable databases, including PubMed and the Cochrane Library. We paid particular attention to the clinical, in vivo , and in vitro investigations of the utility and effectiveness of ASCs in treating DFU. We also highlighted novel isolation techniques and application methods for ASCs in chronic wound management. ASCs have shown great potential in regenerative interventions for diabetes, especially in DFU management. These cells facilitate wound repair by differentiating into different cell types, promoting angiogenesis, secreting growth factors, reducing inflammation, and increasing wound perfusion. However, the current body of research on ASC applications for DFU still requires further investigation. This shows the importance of thoroughly studying their biological mechanisms and therapeutic uses. This review establishes that ASC-based treatments effectively enhance outcomes for patients suffering from DFU. We recommend further investigation of the functionality of ASCs and therapeutic approaches to maximize their therapeutic potential in managing diabetic wounds, thereby adva
