Major outcomes

Ref

CONPs

—

Rabbit ear scar model

Improved the scar appearance and collagen arrangement

[3]

Liposome

Statins

Rabbit ear models of HS

Significantly reduced hypertrophic scarring; reduced erythema/vascularity of scars

[97]

DNA-Fe nanoparticles

Doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX)

Rabbit HS models

Scar-inhibiting effects; penetration ability, rapid drug release

[98]

Light-controlled thermosensitive

Nanoformulation(TSLC)

Cell membrane repair protein (rhMG53)

Rat diabetic model with full-thickness cutaneous wounds

Reduction in scar formation; inhibited excessive skin fibrosis, angiogenesis, and increased wound closure rate

[99]

Papain elastic liposomes (PEL)

Papain elastic

Rabbit ear model

Improved HS; significantly decreased microvascular density, and collagen fiber

[100]

Selenium@SiO2 nanoparticles (Se@SiO2NPs)

—

Rat full-thickness skin wound model

Suppressed the formation of hypertrophic scars and accelerated dermal wound healing, accompanied by oxidative stress inhibition

[101]
