Recent advances in the mechanism of hydrogen sulfide in wound healing in diabetes.

Wound healing difficulties in diabetes continue to be a clinical challenge, posing a considerable burden to patients and society. Recently, exploration of the mechanism of wound healing and associated treatment options in diabetes has become topical. Of note, the positive role of hydrogen sulfide in promoting wound healing has been demonstrated in recent studies. Hydrogen sulfide is a confirmed gas transmitter in mammals, playing an essential role in pathology and physiology. This review describes the mechanism underlying the role of hydrogen sulfide in the promotion of diabetic wound healing and the potential for hydrogen sulfide supplementation as a therapeutic application.
