Results are shown as mean ± SEM. * versus the same day diabetic wounds + PBS (DM + PBS alone), by ANOVA. The main finding was that ulcer area was significantly reduced on days 7, 10, and 14 in the CTGF treated diabetic group (D + CTGF) compared with the non-rhCTGF treated diabetic group (D + PBS alone). |
