摘要
Wound healing is a complex biological process that involves proliferation,migration,and differentiation.Endogenous electric field(EF)-directed migration of keratinocytes(galvanotaxis)is an essential step in wound re-epithelialization.Endogenous EFs are generated instantaneously after an injury because of the collapse of transepithelial potentials.The application of exogenous EF has become increasingly widespread in promoting wound healing,leading to a paradigm shift in patient outcomes.Here,we summarize the role and value of EF in wound healing through a review of the current research.
