Turmeric‐Derived Nanoparticles Functionalized Aerogel Regulates Multicellular Networks to Promote Diabetic Wound Healing

Regulation of excessive inflammation and impaired cell proliferation is crucial for healing diabetic wounds. Although plant-to-mammalian regulation offers effective approaches for chronic wound management, the development of a potent plant-based therapeutic presents challenges. This study aims to validate the efficacy of turmeric-derived nanoparticles (TDNPs) loaded with natural bioactive compounds. TDNPs can alleviate oxidative stress, promote fibroblast proliferation and migration, and reprogram macrophage polarization. Restoration of the fibroblast-macrophage communication network by TDNPs stimulates cellular regeneration, in turn enhancing diabetic wound healing. To address diabetic wound management, TDNPs are loaded in an ultralight-weight, high swelling ratio, breathable aerogel (AG) constructed with cellulose nanofibers and sodium alginate backbones to obtain TDNPs@AG (TAG). TAG features wound shape-customized accessibility, water-adaptable tissue adhesiveness, and capacity for sustained release of TDNPs, exhibiting outstanding performance in facilitating in vivo diabetic wound healing. This study highlights the potential of TDNPs in regenerative medicine and their applicability as a promising solution for wound healing in clinical settings.
