ABSTRACT:
A method and a device for the treatment of wounds and promotion of wound healing and muscle regeneration. The method includes applying a composition including a non-biodegradable microsphere with a substantial surface charge to the subject. The device further includes a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and a container for containing the composition and the carrier. The microspheres used in the present invention have been shown to promote wound healing and muscle regeneration both in vivo and in vitro.
