Phytotherapeutic Regulation of Matrix Metalloproteinases in Diabetic Foot Ulcer: Molecular Mechanisms and Wound Healing Perspectives

Phytochemicals in Food and Medicine, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Chronic inflammation in diabetic foot ulcers elevates MMP activity and suppresses TIMP and growth factor signaling, impairing tissue repair. Phytochemicals modulate NF‐κB/MAPK pathways and enhance Nrf2–TIMP expression, restoring MMP/TIMP balance, promoting collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and re‐epithelialization, leading to effective wound healing ...
