OA-RD17 exhibited promising therapeutic effects on mice (full-thickness, deep second-degree burns), and ex vivo skin wounds in diabetic patients by regulating macrophages proliferation, migration, and polarization (MAPK, NF-κB), and keratinocytes proliferation and migration (TLR4/MAPK/miR-632/Wnt/β-catenin molecular axis). Moreover, miR-632 also activated Wnt/β-catenin to promote full-thickness skin wound healing in rats. Notably, our results indicate that OA-RD17 and miR-632 are promising pro-healing drug candidates.
