Granular Porous Nanofibrous Microspheres Enhance Cellular Infiltration for Diabetic Wound Healing

Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a significant challenge in the clinical care of diabetic patients, often necessitating limb amputation and compromising the quality of life and life expectancy of this cohort. Minimally invasive therapies, such as modular scaffolds, are at the forefront of current DFU treatment, offering an efficient approach for administering therapeutics that accelerate tissue repair and regeneration. In this study, we report a facile method for fabricating granular nanofibrous microspheres (NMs) with predesigned structures and porosities. The proposed technology combines electrospinning and electrospraying to develop a therapeutic option for DFUs. Specifically, porous NMs were constructed using electrospun poly(lactic-
