Abstract (original English)

Chronic wounds are a persistent burden for medical professionals. Despite developments and advancements in treatment, these wounds do not heal completely. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the epicenter of regenerative medicine that have shown promising results in chronic wound regeneration. Autologous peripheral blood-derived MSCs (PB-MSCs) are comparatively new in wound healing treatment, bone-marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs), and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are commonly being practiced. In the present study, PB-MSCs treatment was given to chronic wound patients. Various biochemical parameters like random blood glucose, serum urea, serum creatinine, bilirubin (total and direct), Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT), total protein, albumin levels, and association of other factors/conditions such as age, sex, addiction of drug/alcohol were also evaluated/compared with complete and without complete healing. The wound area of the ulcer was found to be significantly reduced and the wound was healthier after the treatment. These biochemical parameters could be certainly utilized as biomarkers to anticipate the risk of chronic wounds. These findings may contribute to the development of better wound care treatment strategies and drug discovery in the field of regenerative medicine.
