Octenidine-based hydrogel shows anti-inflammatory and protease-inhibitory capacities in wounded human skin

Abstract Octenidine dihydrochloride (OCT) is a widely used antiseptic molecule, promoting skin wound healing accompanied with improved scar quality after surgical procedures. However, the mechanisms by which OCT is contributing to tissue regeneration are not yet completely clear. In this study, we h...
