June 2026 in “Food Science and Human Wellness” The study investigated the effects of the high-polarity fraction (HPF) of tail fat from Lanzhou Fat-Tailed sheep on skin wound healing in mice. The HPF demonstrated significant antioxidant activity and improved wound healing outcomes compared to other fractions and a non-treated group. It reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α, increased TGF-β1 levels, and promoted collagen production and remodeling, which are crucial for preventing scar formation. Additionally, HPF enhanced the development of hair follicles and sebaceous glands. Molecular analyses showed that HPF upregulated TGF-β1 and downregulated Smad3, contributing to its wound healing efficacy.
