From: Nonerythropoietic Tissue Protective Compounds Are Highly Effective Facilitators of Wound Healing
Tissue protective compounds improve wound healing in a dermal punch biopsy (nonischemic) model. (A) Punch wound size from an animal representative of each treatment group at d 7 following injury. The ARA 290 group (1 nmol/kg-bw) was characterized by a more complete closure of the wound compared with animals that received either PBS or EPO (500 IU/kg-bw). (Standard represents the initial lesion size.) (B) At 7 d following injury, the ARA 290 group was significantly more advanced in healing of the clean, uncomplicated dermal punch biopsy wound compared with saline or EPO (P< 0.001).
