摘要

In this study, we report the effects of fibroblast growth factor-7 (FGF-7) concentration on wound healing, which has been less extensively studied compared to other growth factors. Assessment of the concentration-dependent effects of FGF-7 in an in vitro cell scratch assay showed that FGF-7 promoted human HaCaT keratinocyte migration into the wound area. In an in vivo animal test, local treatment with FGF-7 (up to 100 μg) resulted in no toxicity. In addition, we found that when 100 μg of FGF-7 was administered, transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and hydroxyproline, which are all related to wound healing, were significantly upregulated, followed by accelerated wound healing. All our results demonstrated that the FGF-7 concentration affects wound healing, and a dose of 100 μg of FGF-7 exhibited the most pronounced wound healing effect.
