Expression of apoptosis‐associated genes by human dermal scar fibroblasts
1 Nov 1999
Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this study was to determine if aberrant apoptosis plays a role in pathologic wound healing as manifested by hypertrophic scarring and keloid formation. Apoptosis has recently been found to participate in the transition between granulation tissue and the development of definitive scar. The question that remains to be answered is what stimuli initiate apoptosis during wound healing. Hitherto,...
