February 2026 in “ACS Omega” The study presents a multifunctional hydrogel, QTMP-Gel, designed to treat oral mucositis (OM) by addressing oxidative damage and bacterial infection. The hydrogel, made from quaternary ammonium chitosan and tannic acid, adheres well to wet oral mucosa and releases drugs in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS). It contains platinum nanoparticles for ROS scavenging and minocycline hydrochloride for antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. In vitro tests showed excellent biocompatibility and effectiveness against E. coli and S. aureus. In a hamster model, QTMP-Gel accelerated wound healing, reduced proinflammatory cytokines, and cleared excess ROS, offering a promising approach for OM treatment.

July 2025 in “Pharmaceutics” The study aimed to evaluate the wound healing effects of two new cream formulations containing plant extracts compared to a placebo and a commercial cream, Madecassol®. The formulations included Levant Storax Cream (LSC) and Complex Cream (CC). Stability tests confirmed the creams' stability, and in vivo studies using rats demonstrated that LSC achieved the highest wound healing rates. CC showed better results than the placebo and control groups, but its effectiveness was similar to Madecassol®. The study highlights the potential of LSC in enhancing wound healing.
