New light-activated injectable gel heals bone faster and safer

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have developed a light-activated, injectable hydrogel that can heal wounds and promote tissue regeneration. This innovative hydrogel, which can be administered through a syringe, contains lipid nanoparticles loaded with growth factors that are released upon exposure to light, stimulating cell growth and tissue repair. In experiments conducted on mice, the gel successfully healed wounds within two weeks and showed promising results in regenerating skin, blood vessels, and muscle tissue. The team believes this technology could revolutionize treatments for chronic wounds, diabetic ulcers, and other tissue damage, offering a minimally invasive and efficient method for healing.
