Abstract

Wound Healing Skin disorders or injuries can weaken its barrier function, making a wound vulnerable to bacterial infection. Bacteria secrete proteases that disrupt the barrier integrity, delaying wound healing. In article 2202472, Robert Deller, Man Li, Rachel Williams, Raechelle D'Sa, and colleagues describe the potential of nitric oxide-releasing peptide hydrogels to prevent loss of barrier function from bacterial secreted proteases in order to improve infected wound healing.
