Abstract
The healing of diabetic skin wounds is a complex process significantly affected by the hyperglycemic environment. In this context, glucose oxidase (GOx), by catalyzing glucose to produce gluconic acid and hydrogen peroxide, not only modulates the hyperglycemic microenvironment but also possesses antibacterial and oxygen-supplying functions, thereby demonstrating immense potential in the treatment of diabetic wounds. Despite the growing interest in GOx-based therapeutic strategies in recent years, a systematic summary and review of these efforts have been lacking. To address this gap, this review article outlines the advancements in the application of GOx and GOx-like nanozymes in the treatment of diabetic wounds, including reaction mechanisms, the selection of carrier materials, and synergistic therapeutic strategies such as multi-enzyme combinations, microneedle structures, and gas therapy. Finally, the article looks forward to the application prospects of GOx in aiding the healing of diabetic wounds and the challenges faced in translating these innovations to clinical practice. We sincerely hope that this review can provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of GOx-based diabetic treatment strategies, facilitate the rigorous construction of more robust multifunctional therapeutic systems, and ultimately benefit patients with diabetic wounds.
