Beta‐Glucan: A Macrophage Differentiation Modulator That Accelerates the Wound Healing Response

International Wound Journal, Volume 23, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Beta Glucans (β‐glucans) are naturally occurring polysaccharides that have positive effects on healing in acute and chronic wounds. This study aimed to identify how β‐glucans modulate macrophage polarisation and inflammation to aid the healing response.

Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Inhibitors Improve Cornea Alkali Wound Healing

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 6, 31 March 2026.
Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) inhibition enhances corneal wound healing following alkali injury. (A) Schematic representation of corneal injury induced by NaOH or ammonia showing elevated sEH expression in corneal keratocytes. This leads to rapid hydrolysis of epoxy fatty acids (EpFAs), reducing their bioavailability and contributing to enhanced ...
