Fumaria officinalis-loaded chitosan nanoparticles dispersed in an alginate hydrogel promote diabetic wounds healing by upregulating VEGF, TGF-β, and b-FGF genes: A preclinical investigation.

Researchers developed a wound dressing using fumaria officinalis extract-loaded chitosan nanoparticles in a hydrogel. In vitro and in vivo studies showed it promoted cell viability, migration, and wound healing potential comparable to a marketed product. This research suggests potential use in diabetic wound treatment.

Eucommia lignans alleviate the progression of diabetic nephropathy through mediating the AR/Nrf2/HO-1/AMPK axis in vivo and in vitro.

Eucommia lignans derived from Eucommia ulmoides Oliver have been found to inhibit the progression of diabetic nephropathy (DN) by reducing inflammation and improving renal function through the AR/Nrf2/HO-1/AMPK axis. This suggests that Eucommia lignans could be a potential treatment for DN.
