Summary

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have attracted significant attention in recent years in diverse fields owing to their broad mechanisms of action. In particular, the wound healing process has become one of the main fields where the therapeutic potential of AgNPs is highlighted. AgNPs can be used as monotherapy or incorporated into composite structures in various formulations such as nanogels, hydrogels, powders, ointments, and sprays, for the treatment of a wide range of wound types including burns, excisional and incisional wounds, bone defects, surgical wounds, and diabetic ulcers. This widespread use is attributed to the strong antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and cell proliferation-promoting biological properties of AgNPs. Moreover, AgNPs exhibit synergistic effects when comb
