Laminin heparin-binding peptides bind to several growth factors and enhance diabetic wound healing

Laminins are important regulators of epidermal wound healing. Here, the authors show that laminins bind to multiple growth factors via their heparin-binding domains, and that incorporation of these domains into fibrin matrices increases growth factor retention, promoting wound healing in type 2 diab...

description Laminins are important regulators of epidermal wound healing. Here, the authors show that laminins bind to multiple growth factors via their heparin-binding domains, and that incorporation of these domains into fibrin matrices increases growth factor retention, promoting wound healing in type 2 diabetic mouse models.
