Emerging Effects of Resveratrol on Wound Healing: A Comprehensive Review

Molecules. 2022 Oct 9;27(19):6736. doi: 10.3390/molecules27196736.

Abstract

Resveratrol (RSV) is a natural extract that has been extensively studied for its significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, which are closely associated with a variety of injurious diseases and even cosmetic medicine. In this review, we have researched and summarized the role of resveratrol and its different forms of action in wound healing, exploring its role and mechanisms in promoting wound healing through different modes of action such as hydrogels, fibrous scaffolds and parallel ratio medical devices with their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial and anti-ageing properties and functions in various cells that may play a role in wound healing. This will provide a direction for further understanding of the mechanism of action of resveratrol in wound healing for future research.

Keywords: anti-inflammatory; anti-oxidant; resveratrol; wound dressing; wound healing.
