Abstract

Introduction: Wounds are associated with ranges of simple to complex disruption or damage to anatomical structure and function. They are also associated with enormous economic and social costs, increasing yearly, resulting in a severe impact on the wellbeing of individuals and society. Technology that might accelerate wound healing is associated with many benefits to injured people. Methods: BALBc mice underwent symmetrical excisional wounds through the panniculus carnosus. They were divided into a treatment group placed on an autonomous ceramic far-field infrared blanket (cIFRB) and a control group maintained under standard conditions. We also expanded and cultured adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on cIFRB and compared them to standard conditions subjected to a scratch injury to compare survival, proliferation, and wound healing. Results: The wound healing of the cIRFB treatment group was significantly faster than the control group of mice. The wound-healing effect of mesenchymal stem cells on cIRFB was also increased and associated with significant migration to the wound area. Conclusions: Wound healing is improved in a mouse model exposed to cFIRB. The ceramic blanket also promotes survival, proliferation, increased migration, and wound healing of MSCs without affecting their survival and proliferation. The utilization of cFIRB in cellular biology and medical applications may be promising in many situations currently explored in animal and human models. This technology needs no direct or battery power source and is entirely autonomous and noninvasive, making its application possible in any environment.

Highlights

  • Wounds are associated with ranges of simple to complex disruption or damage to anatomical structure and function

  • Flow cytometry analysis with Violet-ready flow reagent did not differentiate between the cell cultures on the ceramic blanket and the standard surface. This data suggests that the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) did not receive any significant effect on their survival, adhesion, and proliferation. They increased the wound healing effect by increasing their migration to the wound area when cultures were placed over the ceramic blanket emitting FIR

  • This study has demonstrated that cFIRB causes wounds to heal faster and may activate the migration signaling of MSCs to the irradiation area to start the regeneration of damaged tissue and accelerate healing, which are robust characteristics of these kinds of cells
