Abstract excerpt
Contraction is a normal part of skin wound healing and wound closure; however, excessive contraction and severe scarring concern patients and physicians alike. The present study has investigated the degree and kinetics of wound contraction in a porcine model of wound healing, to elucidate the genetic and molecular basis for abnormal skin wound healing and scarring. Healing of excisional skin wounds in juvenile...
