Novel Dual Cell Therapy
for Wound Healing

Co-encapsulated insulin-producing cells (IPCs) and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in a hydrogel dressing expedites wound healing and decreases scar formation

Releasing growth and regenerative factors over a 3 week period increased wound closure rates by 270% in diabetic mice, with wounds healing in 14 days without scars.

Insulin-Producing Cells

Insulin assists wound healing by activating pathways that stimulate the migration of skin cells and 

recruit mesenchymal stem cells to the wound area.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells

Also known as Adult Stem Cells, MSCs regulate immune and inflammatory responses, release growth factors and matrix proteins, and recruit other necessary cells.

Hydrogel Matrix

The hydrogel moisturizes the affected area, absorbing and retaining wound fluid, which supplies the cells with nutrients and allows for waste exchange.
