    I have read in the news that Iranian scientists are working on new methods to treat the ulcers without any trace, by means of nanotechnology and embryonic stem cells.They introduce ANGIPARS for treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. It is predicted that the capsule and locally applied pomade will enter market in next few months in Iran.It would be your kindness if you share your knowledge or experience on this drug with others.

    From what I read on it, Angipars increases angiogenesis. There is a topical drug called Regranex that also stimulates wound healing. Recently, it was found that if more than 3 tubes are used, there is an increase in cancer. It has taken years to find this. I would be concerned if the same side effect can occur with Angipars.

    Regards,
