Nanoparticle-Based Therapeutics for Enhanced Burn Wound Healing: A Comprehensive Review.

Burn wounds pose intricate clinical challenges due to their severity and high risk of complications, demanding advanced therapeutic strategies beyond conventional treatments. This review discusses the application of nanoparticle-based therapies for optimizing burn wound healing. We explore the critical phases of burn wound healing, including inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, while summarizing key nanoparticle-based strategies that influence these processes to optimize healing. Various nanoparticles, such as metal-based, polymer-based, and extracellular vesicles, are evaluated for their distinctive properties and mechanisms of action, including antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative effects. Future directions are highlighted, focusing on personalized therapies and the integration of sophisticated drug delivery systems, emphasizing the transformative potential of nanoparticles in enhancing burn wound treatment.
