A Randomized, Double-blind, Single Centre, Placebo-controlled Pilot Study to Assess on a Molecular Level the Influence of a 5 % Dexpanthenol Ointment in Subjects With Previously Injured Skin by Investigation of Skin Biopsies
In previous in vitro studies it could be shown, that Dexpanthenol has an influence on the gene expression of fibroblasts. The genes which are influenced by Dexpanthenol play mainly a role during cell proliferating processes.The aim of this study is to investigate the molecular effect of Dexpanthenol on human living skin, during wound healing.
