Title:
YAP INHIBITION FOR WOUND HEALING
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/021607
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Methods of promoting healing of a wound in a dermal location of a subject are provided. Aspects of the methods may include administering an effective amount of a YAP inhibitor composition to the wound to modulate mechanical activation of Engrailed-1 lineage-negative fibroblasts (ENFs) in the wound to promote ENFmediated healing of the wound. Also provided are methods of preventing scarring during healing of a wound in a subject and methods of promoting hair growth on a subject. Aspects of the methods may include forming a wound in a dermal location of a subject and administering an effective amount of a YAP inhibitor composition to the wound to modulate mechanical activation of Engrailed-1 lineage-negative fibroblasts (ENFs) in the wound to promote ENF-mediated healing of the wound. Also provided are kits including an amount of a YAP inhibitor composition and a tissue disrupting device.
