The treatment of chronic wounds is considered a public health problem. When the condition affects at-risk groups such as those with diabetics, it becomes a great clinical challenge. In this work, we evaluated the healing effects of a new zinc complex, [Zn(phen)(van)2], identified as ZPV, which was synthesized, characterized and associated with chitosan (CS) membranes and tested on cutaneous wounds of diabetic r...

Lectins are proteins possessing a carbohidate moiety that are able to interact with biological systems eliciting a variety of effects. Vegetal lectins have been used as tools in the study of inflammation due to its ability to recognize carbohydrate residues in inflammatory cell membranes by means of its lectin domain. The present work studied the pro-inflammatory effects of the lectin from Dioclea rostrata seed...
