Abstract: A variety of cytokines work synergistically to participate in wound healing. Although there are many studies on cytokines, the current clinical use of cytokines to treat wounds has not achieved the desired effect. The sequential administration of cytokines or the study of its drug delivery system may be its strategy to promote chronic wound healing. This article reviews the research progress of major growth factors, chemokines and inflammatory factors in wound repair in recent years.

Key words: wound repair, cytokines, growth factor, chemotactic factor, inflammatory factor
