It is acknowledged that the presence of antioxidants boosts the wound-healing process. Many biopolymers have been explored over the years for their antioxidant potential in wound healing, but limited research has been performed on gum structures and their derivatives. This review aims to evaluate whether the antioxidant properties of gellan and guar gums and wound healing co-exist. PubMed was the primary platform used to explore published reports on the antioxidant wound-healing interconnection, wound dressings based on gellan and guar gum, as well as the latest review papers on guar gum. The literature search disclosed that some wound-healing supports based on gellan gum hold considerable antioxidant properties, as evident from the results obtained using different antioxidant assays. It has emerged that the antioxidant properties of guar gum are overlooked in the wound-healing field, in most cases, even if this feature improves the healing outcome. This review paper is the first that examines guar gum vehicles throughout the wound-healing process. Further research is needed to design and evaluate customized wound dressings that can scavenge excess reactive oxygen species, especially in clinical practice.
人们公认抗氧化剂的存在会促进伤口愈合过程。多年来,人们对许多生物聚合物在伤口愈合中的抗氧化潜力进行了探索,但对胶类结构及其衍生物的研究有限。本综述旨在评估结冷胶和瓜尔胶的抗氧化特性与伤口愈合是否并存。PubMed是用于探索已发表的关于抗氧化剂与伤口愈合相互关系、基于结冷胶和瓜尔胶的伤口敷料以及瓜尔胶最新综述论文的主要平台。文献检索表明,从使用不同抗氧化测定法获得的结果来看,一些基于结冷胶的伤口愈合支持物具有相当大的抗氧化特性。已经发现,瓜尔胶的抗氧化特性在伤口愈合领域被忽视了,在大多数情况下,即使这一特性改善了愈合结果。这篇综述论文是第一篇在整个伤口愈合过程中研究瓜尔胶载体的论文。需要进一步研究来设计和评估能够清除过量活性氧的定制伤口敷料,尤其是在临床实践中。
