FoxO3a Plays a Role in Wound Healing by Regulating Fibroblast Mitochondrial Dynamics

The skin plays a protective role against harmful environmental stress such as ultraviolet rays. Therefore, the skin is constantly exposed to potential injuries, and wound healing is a vital process for the survival of all higher organisms. Wound healing is dependent on aging and metabolic status at a whole-body level. Because the forkhead box O (FOXO) family plays a role in aging and metabolism, we investigated the molecular functions of FOXO3a in skin wound healing using FoxO3a
